2:48 that but where Adam is reeling the band in just before cutting them the fuck loose into controlled chaos is amazing. The first half is just a slow stalk, like your tribe is hunting game, then at 2:54 is the attack, where all that pressure builds and it’s life or death to devour to survive. To me this is a victory song, for a tribe that’s evolving, adapting, surviving, learning and ultimately thriving. Just as humans should.

Nope. Lateralus starts the spiral. It should be a tetralogy.

[@emircokekoglu]

my favourite. it is impossible to stand still while listening. people doesn't care about Triad as much as the other songs in the album because it has no lyrics. but there is no reason to write any. as a theme, lateralus is about change and spiritual progress. throughout this spiritual progress, a person who is free from hatred and has chosen humility, chosen his path, focuses only on the infinity in front of him, has prepared for it, accepts the change and no longer needs to speak. only lives. any object in front of it is no longer there to think about it or comment. this is the reason they went full instrumental on this. This song is the end of the journey, a celebration.

On the lateralus tour in 2002 I saw them at MSG, they played all 3 tracks and at the end of disposition the band went backstage (minus Danny) while he sat there playing the repetitive beat for 20 plus minutes during a light show accompanied by acrobatic stunts from the schism creatures from the actual video who came out and on stage during schism and walked on all fours bobbing their heads. They opened with the grudge and closed with lateralus which came right after triad. I'll never see another show that comes close to that. Ever.

[@anthonystarke893]

I went to that same tour! But the show I saw was in Atlanta. They had the other drummers from the opening acts come out and do a 20 minute drum act in the middle of Reflection while the rest of the band went off stage. Then they came back, finished Disposition then went into Triad. Closed with Lateralus.

Tool makes me think about myself, my own dreams and how I interact with the world. It's kind of like a self-orientated spiritual journey. Maybe my belief is that in my mind I am the center of the universe, though I realize everyone else thinks the same way, therefore I see the world as a collection of unique individuals sharing the resources of the universe. God to me is the creator, the lawyer, the rock star. God is too busy enjoying the world to pay too much attention providing everyone with what they want. I think that the altimate creator would create an after life for individuals. Individuals when they die go to a mulitverse, where they get to relive a new life, meet new people, and simply enjoy living.

People give lots of credit to Justin, but not nearly enough credit about how difficult the bass line in this song is. The stamina needed to play these fast hammer-ons and pull-offs on a .105 or .110 string at the 2nd and 3rd fret for 6:37 minutes straight is pretty serious. You feel like your tendons are ripped out by the 3 minute mark.

I see what you're saying. But when you've been playing as long these guys have you just build up that endurance and it becomes fairly simple.

This is probably just a warm up jam for them.

[@leahreminimashups]

sounds about right for the guys that made fucking lateralus.

This is by far the heaviest song I've heard played in 6/8ths time. It's amazing.

[@el0j]

I believe it's 12/8

[@kevinsibert3160]

@@el0j It's neither 6/8 or 12/8. It's a straight 3/4. You could count it as a 6/8 when playing but to write it out, it's definitely in 3/4 time.

[@BeastyBite]

@@kevinsibert3160 it's actually 6/6 with danny playing 1/2 every 6th beat since he made a pact with the devil to play like this.

I'm gonna let yall argue but.... it's polyrythmic....

Tool is clairaudience for audiophiles and that has a tendency to unlock other latent alchemical abilities like clairsentience. It's all wavelengths and frequencies. Some of us are more sensitive to it than the majority of population. Some how Tool transmuted links between thinking and feeling in all perception. It makes me want to experiment with light refraction. Which obviously links to Pink Floyd's album art of the beam of light refracting to a rainbow of the 6 hues of color in our visible spectrum. That triangle is key to our perception of light. A true perception of reality is through a triad lense 3 eyes united. Forming a triad of perception of light refraction rather than a binary one. Why has our evolution been engineered to ignore this equation? Shouldn't we all have our 3rd eye to guide us in a 3rd dimensional existence?

Incredibly well said

[@lunarconduit]

@@satothemonkey3366 Thank you. I have so much more to say. The depth of which is immeasurable. I've been studying the phenomena for over a decade. The more I piece together, the less of a phenomenon it seems to me. Eventually it feels familiar as the philosophy falls into place, filling in the gaps in the spectrum. Triads reveal themselves to me. The math proves itself over and over in a multitude of events in everyone's daily life. Many people are capable of questioning reality, but are they asking the right questions? Or are they lost because they're searching endlessly for the justification of what they want reality to be for them? I haven't met anyone else who has discovered the ability to analyze our geometric perception of reality.

I fell in love with this album right around when it came out. Still love it. I feel more connected to the universe listening to this!

[@omieg89]

This album is just on a different level.

[@Greatquotesmatter]

Oh my fuckin god what an incredible piece of music. Unbelievable and no other collection of artists could have made this track this way other than Tool. So distinctively their own sound.

[@bookofsand9936]

What an epic wild state song , I can see the warrior struggle in running to the light! left the darkness behind, break into the Truth path!
