    Lyrics:
    Pure as we begin
    Pure as we come in
    Pure as we begin
    Ruled by will alone
    Pure as we begin
    Here we have a stone
    Gather, place, erase so
    Shelter turns to home
    Pure as we begin
    Here we have a stone
    Throw to stay the stranger
    Swore to crush his bones
    Ruled by will alone
    Spark becomes a flame
    Flame becomes a fire
    Light the way or warm this
    Home we occupy
    Spark becomes a flame
    Flame becomes a fire
    Forge a blade to slay the stranger
    Take whatever we desire
    Moved by will alone
    Pure as we begin
    Pure as we begin
    Move by will alone
    Leave as we come in
    Pure as light, return to one
    Move by will alone
    Move by will alone

    • @augustgreig9420
      @augustgreig9420 Před 4 lety +13

      @Travis B What the fuck are you talking about? "Crawl Away" and "Swamp Song" are both great songs, but even if you don't like them, you couldn't remove them from the album because they flesh out the theme of the album, which is about control, specifically the feeling of helplessness when you dony have control. And they use water as a metaphor for this.
      "Undertow" is a fantastically daring concept album, because most concept albums focus on telling a narrative, but this one focuses on exploring an emotion and all the consequences of that, from broken relationships, resentment, drug abuse, relapse, child sexual abuse, coerced sodomy and loss of faith.
      "Crawl Away" is about losing someone and having no control over the fact that they are leaving, despite doing everything you can to make them stay. And this leads to wanting to kill them if you can't have them. Or you can read it as wishing you could be the one to betray them instead of vice versa, thus restoring your sense of control.
      "Swamp Song", I believe, is very obviously about addiction, but could be about any self destructive behavior, including a toxic abuser who hurts anyone they're in a relationship with. And again, here we see the water metaphor, with the swamp, bog, wading and quick sand. He is saying, "Don't follow me, or it will destroy you," but ultimately, when he realizes they won't listen, his feelings turn to anger, as they did in "Crawl Away" and as they often do on the album. That's why he calls them a "dumb ass belligerent fucker, I hope it sucks you down." Again, not only does he not have control over what's happening to him, he also has no control over the person who's following him in. And water again is the metaphor for this.
      So you see, these two songs are indispensable to the album. In the same way, "Fear Inoculum" is vital for setting the tone on that album.

    • @augustgreig9420
      @augustgreig9420 Před 4 lety +13

      @Travis B First of all, this album is "10,000 Days". Second, I've heard other people parrot your same response, and it makes zero sense. I couldn't find anything on "Fear Inoculum" that sounded like they were retreading old material. Yes, it still has a distinctive style, but that's great. If the album had sounded nothing like them, people would complain way worse.
      And anyway, the time signatures and polyrhythms on the album are completely unique, unlike anything they've ever done before. In fact, the album actually strays away from their previous work by not building songs around a riff, but instead the songs are built around different rhythms.
      "Pneuma" is a fantastic example of this, where during the intro the drums actually foreshadow the melody that is to come, not just the rhythm but the drums are also playing the notes of the melody, which is really amazing and not something I remember ever hearing before.
      The way time signatures and rhythms and polyrhythms are used on this album is really amazing. "Invincible" is a great example of this. The songs has these moments where the guitar, bass and drums are all playing in different time signatures, but as they repeat, they eventually catch up with each other so they land on the same beat, at which point the drums change time to match the guitar and bass before they all stop and allow for silence to take over before bursting forth once more playing together in a perfect 4/4.
      All of the off beat stuff before builds a tremendous amount of tension so that when we hit 4/4 it feels amazingly satisfying. Something very similar happens in "Pneuma" during the verse which builds up to the chorus which actually doesn't have any lyrics, kind of like "Seven Nation Army". The verse is offbeat and tense and it builds this pressure which is release when the chorus kicks in.
      It took me a little while, but after listening to this album a lot, I do believe it is their greatest album of all time. It seems that this is the peak they've been building toward all along and they've finally perfected their sound. "Pneuma", and "Invincible" are definitely two of the greatest songs they've ever written. "Fear Inoculum" and "Descending" are both great and fit perfectly in their places on the album. "Culling Voices" appears to be the weakest among them out of the gate, but again, when you view it from its place on the album, it fits perfectly. And "7empest" is just a straight up jam, something unlike anything we've ever heard from them before. I can dance to that song.
      The album is a 10/10.

      I just see my origins. Not my ancestral origins per se, just the origins of what I am: human. And I am surrounded by other humans. Humans hate, but I don't hate. It makes me feel alien. But to avoid the deep pits of arrogance, I realize I am also human, and that I can also hate. Pure as I begin, move by will alone, I choose to build. Others choose to destroy. Just sides of the same coin. I may not see shapes and geometry from music without psychedelics, but I perceive concepts and connections as if those things had a separate sensory organ. In other words, it's just humbling to be reminded, that I am just human. Keyword: just. There's nothing special about being human, but our choices can be special anyway. Move by will alone.

    When listening to this, I can only think that the song is about choice. "Pure as we begin" could mean that we all begin pure, and when given a stone, it is our choice and will alone that define our actions. You can use the stone to make a shelter or attack someone. You can use a fire to light your way and warm your home, or you can use it to forge a blade and slay someone. It's all about your 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣, which can create 𝙏𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣.
    This song is criminally underrated.

    The title of this track is a play on words. It’s a play on the word “intension,” meaning the core/internal matter of a given subject (in this case the subject would be free will) and/or a determination to do something in an archaic sense. “Intension” is a homophone of “intention,” which is essentially synonymous with will.

So, since it can't be any one thing in particular, it takes on the shape of everything and it just dreams forever. Don't worry about anything, you are entirely natural and belong here and the character you've told yourself you are doesn't really exist but the deep down part of you will be doing this forever, the good and bad.

Ik you shouldn’t let yourself be grasped by materialistic things, but it isn’t what you’re learning. It’s what it’s doing. Your brain will develop and become healthy. With a healthy mind you can see to make your body healthy. With that you can allow your true potential to show. Grow the seed that will grow into the answer if you so choose to feed a nurture it. Then plant it in others. Don’t give the answers away. Ik it’s hard to do but when you just say it, people think you’re crazy. Also don’t believe in just one thing. Take everything into consideration and will it together. Find the medium. See this side and the other together. Wether or not the world we’re living in is real or not.

      Doesn't have that awful airhorn effect to it, tho. But for some reason I want to see the mashup.

    It blew my mind when I made the connection between this and Right in Two, such contrasting instrumentals but it all climaxes in the second half of the latter.

    I wouldn't say Tool is the world's greatest band. There is no one greatest, really.
    To me they are MY greatest band, my favourite tool (hehe pun) to use while self exploring.
    A perfect blend of the hard, earhtly rock and the calm, spiritual "out of this world". A yin and yang of a band. They are very grounded, yet stare at the night sky and reach as far as they can.
    They help me to reach further.

    I wish the old video of this song with the scenes of nature gets reposted to CZcams. So many poeple describing the way this song makes them feel ie surrounded by nature, heavy storm, etc. the old video was the perfect fit for this song. OG tool fans know what video im talking bout, like if you are one of these cool humans.

      Yes, the beautiful Life / Planet Earth montage went so well with the music. I'm devastated that it was taken down, it was probably my favourite video on YT. Like my therapy session.

    Pure as we begin
    Pure as we come in
    Pure as we begin
    Move by will alone
    Pure as we begin
    Here we have a stone
    Gather, place, erase so
    Shelter turns to home
    Pure as we begin
    Here we have a stone
    Throw to stay the stranger
    Swore to crush his bones
    Move by will alone
    Spark becomes a flame
    Flame becomes a fire
    Light the way or warm this
    Home we occupy
    Spark becomes a flame
    Flame becomes a fire
    Forge a blade to slay the stranger
    Take whatever we desire
    Moved by will alone
    Pure as we begin
    Pure as we begin
    Move by will alone
    Leave as we come in
    Pure as light, return to one
    Move by will alone
    Move by will alone
