    Fun fact; Danny Carey laid down the whole drum track in his first and only take. He wanted to do this to challenge himself but the band was trying to distract him through the studio window. You can subtlety hear Danny at the end "Aw, you fuckin' bastard!" to his mates. Dude is a legend!

      yeah, its a fun story, but this is another online myth that was started fairly recently.
      I know that Danny back then really didn't record to a click-track (its very common drummers do)... think it may have got lost in translation along the way.

    Heard that MJK lost his voice after singing that. But we love Tool because they r so real and u can hear and feel the anger. They r true 2 their craft and don't worry about radio play. Heard Adam say on a podcast that radio only cuts up their songs anyway and he loves and appreciates the Tool fans for being so loyal to them.

  • @tidewell
    @tidewell Před rokem +6

    I know its been more of an online urban legend that the song is directed at the music label.
    The fact is, that Tool originally signed their record contract to a very small record label (Zoo/Volcano Ent) for the purpose of having 100% creative control over what they make. The "record label" at that time was made up of 2 guys (Cliff Bernstein & Peter Mensch) - and it was far from what you'd think some big corporate entity is.
    From what I know, they hadn't even heard any music from Lateralus until the band was in the mixing process of recordings. Their rection was indifferent and perhaps was discussed that the album didn't have a clear "radio friendly" song - but that's as far as it went! The band already had 100% creative control, so its not like Cliff & Peter's opinion had much sway anyway.
    This era was a tense moment in the band's history and they nearly broke up in the studio a few times. A lot of the lyrical content is more reflective of the band's inner atmosphere on the album - song to song., not just this one.

    The mythology of this song is that the record label was pressuring them for a heavier song that could be marketed against Slipknot or System of a Down. So the purposefully wrote in that super chill break in the middle of the song as an F U knowing the rep would only listen the first minute or two and sign off on the song.

    It says a lot of this album that this is easily my least favourite track. I've heard it was aimed at the label that heard some of the stuff they had written for the album and asked for something that's heavier and to the point. "So this is what you wanted, then this is what youre getting". It's a cool track but doesn't quite fit in with the other songs.
