During the writing process, bassist Justin Chancellor brought in a riff that, after some workshopping, evolved into measures of 9, 8 and 7. It came from trying to relate to those things in life or nature we all have in common It's something that people have been studying since the beginning of time. So we wanted to apply that to our music — that's why we got more into the idea behind science, metaphysics and the myth of communication.
Keenan then built some of his lyrics around the sequence, using words with syllables climbing from numbers one through six and back down — in a haiku-like structure: "Black" 1 "then" 1 "white are" 2 "all I see" 3 "in my infancy" 5 "red and yellow then came to be" 8 "reaching out to me" 5 "let me see" 3.
It's a nifty feat of verbal symmetry, but Keenan regrets the approach. By pointing it out, staring at it and pointing at it with those numbers present, and the way the numbers and lyrics are — I feel it's good to let people know about it, but I almost feel like it was kind of a dick joke in a way. I could do better. Tool layered lots of weird shit into the mix — including the electrical crackling from a "Jacob's Ladder" transformer — as they indulged in the studio.
Much of the experimentation was Carey's territory. I got some good samples from that, banging on the strings for 'Resolution,'" he told Modern Drummer. The Tibetan monk sounds you hear on the record are just me growling through a tube. That was the initial sample, and then I overdubbed an Oberheim through a Vocoder. Before this record, we were really rigid about being able to perform every note live, but we got away from that for this one.
Maynard is doing more harmonies and doubling on his voices, and Adam did more guitar overdubs. According to the Toolshed fan site, Keenan once noted that the ambient interlude "Mantra" is the slowed-down sound of him squeezing his Siamese cat. Given Tool's love of saying weird shit in interviews, it's best to take that one with a grain of salt.

At the conclusion of touring, Tool began another extended hiatus. Although the band re-emerged for a brief summer tour in , it would be another ten years before fans could hear new music. During this period, Keenan debuted his de facto solo project, Puscifer , and returned for a third album with A Perfect Circle. Behind the scenes, the band was also bogged down by a lawsuit that wouldn't be resolved until The next year, shaking off the cobwebs, Tool returned to the road for another quick jaunt in the U.
After an interminable year gap between albums, Tool returned in with their epic fifth album, Fear Inoculum. Their third straight chart-topper, the set also featured their second Hot placement to date, the ten-minute title track, which became the longest song to ever appear on that chart.
Meanwhile, for the first time, Tool made their entire discography available for streaming; this propelled all of their past albums back to the charts, breaking records in the process. They embarked on a sold-out arena tour of the U. AllMusic relies heavily on JavaScript. Please enable JavaScript in your browser to use the site fully. Blues Classical Country. Electronic Folk International. I have been a lucky tool for the branding of the band with my images.
We use a tool to accomplish a task or purpose. Music and art are the most profound tools humanity has for plumbing and expressing the heights and depths of the soul. Working with one of the greatest rock bands of all time has been a rare privilege, the thrill of a lifetime — twice already! I will always be grateful for how Tool introduced my work to so many people throughout the world. ALEX I haven't heard any of the new music yet, and I can't answer this question, but it is looking positive.
As far as other collaborations, there are still a few older things that have never been publicly shared and I can't say whether they ever will, but if I get a chance to work with Tool again, it will be an honor.
ALEX The first compositional elements of the painting "Transfigurations" came to me in a dream in Later, in a DMT experience, I became the figure in the dream painting. My body was made of a grid of light with jewels suspended throughout. This crystalized the image in preparation for making the actual painting.
I've been an artist all my life and have kept many volumes of my dream journal. At age 12, I began painting seriously in my attic, studied art through graduate school and have been practicing art almost every day since. I do not recall basing a painting or drawing on a dream or nightmare. For over 40 years, the source of my imagery has always sprung from a conscious inner voice that guides the evolution of my painting and social sculpture, inspired by psychedelic visions.
My life is a work of art. My ancestry makes me a Jew, and I love being Jewish even though I do not love all the things Jews say or do. I am the wife of the accomplished and talented artist, Alex Grey. I am a friend to many who join us in the sacred work of building an enduring temple to uplift a global community.
I am the father of the outstanding artist and actor, Zena Grey. Thousands of people around the world are tattooed with my art. My work has literally left an impression on them. A porn star named herself after me. My art frequently winds up on blotter acid. I'm a student of psychedelic history, mysticism, anatomy and sacred art traditions. I have learned that thousands of kindred souls have seen similar mindscapes to those I have depicted in my paintings. My art and I have become identified with altered and higher states of consciousness.
The Visionary Art Tribe honors me as a spiritual friend. I am a spokesperson for the good that psychedelics can do. I stand for cognitive liberty and advocate for creativity as a spiritual path. Skip to main content. Alex Grey, Wappinger, New York,
