   Here is a great article with a great interview of several members of Tool. Not your usual bullshit interview...

   "Message To Harry Manback" (with some parts spoken in Italian) is an actual message from Keenan's answering machine. Carey tells the story of some Italian guy who showed up at Keenan's house while one of his roommates was on the road. This guy claimed he had permission to stay at the house. When the roommate was finally contacted, they found out this definitely wasn't the case. In the meantime, the unwelcome house guest had eaten all their food and run up their phone bill. After they gave him the boot, he called the answering machine and left the message contained in "Message to Harry Manback." Our of all the segues and songs on the album, Carey says that one gets the most inquiries. "No one knows for sure if it's for real or not," he says.
   That and the German segue, "Die Eier Von Satan." A spoken word piece in German that sounds very violent and Facist, when translated, is actually a recipe for Mexican wedding cookies! The dichotomy between the two songs is perplexing. Carey says "Message To Harry Manback" sounds like it could be a love poem, when in reality it's a death threat, while "Die Eier Von Satan" sounds Facist, but in reality it is totally innocent. Once again, things are not as they seem. "Fair is foul, and foul is fair."

   I wish the two people above were not anonymous! The first I completely agree with, Tool songs do serve to have several meanings at once, and several meanings could have been intended to be right at the same time. Too much fits to be mere coincidence.
   
   The second person is talking about the Mayan calendar, which is worth finding out about if you're interested in the spiritual shift in human consciousness they say is going to occur at the end of 2012 =)

   I've recently been listening to the albums Aenima and Lateralus after reading this book called "2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl". If you're to lazy to go and read this fucking awesome book than look into the Mayan culture and their shamans. Basically the Mayans predict 2012 (Dec 21, 2012 to be more precise) as the end of this age. The apocalypse in a sense but the beginning of ultimate human evolution. It's all about humans consciousness. Fuck, I wish I could tell you all about it but there's just so much to say. I swear, just look into it and listen to Lateralus and the entire album takes on a whole new meaning, even deeper and more inspiring than ever.
