Most of the parts are really gone over and over and over again with Tool. It's a very composed situation. We spend weeks if not months working on all those songs. There's not much room for improvisation.
- Envision

- Nov 07, 2020
It drove me mad not being able to know more about Pink Floyd when I was a little kid. But that's the great thing - there was this mystery behind it, and we couldn't find out enough. It made your mind work, it made you seek after it or try to interpret it. It made you envision or imagine what they were doing.
- Getting

- Nov 07, 2020
We rarely write in the studio. Everything's already completely arranged before we go in. That way, we can really focus on getting the recording right.

Making 13-minute tracks is pretty alternative, I think!

Before 'AEnima,' we were just following our gut. There was a lot of anger in the air and we never tried to control that. But just as we mature as humans, with 'AEnima' we tried to be fueled more by spiritual ideas or more of a conscious mode of aiming things in the right place or trying to take more responsibility for our art.
- Attention Spans

Our crowds seem to keep growing whether we put out a record or not, so I feel very lucky to have that support.

- Nov 07, 2020
Our fans are loyal as can be, that's for sure.
- Floyd
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Pink Floyd and Yes and some of the old art-rock bands, you didn't know what they looked like. You were always looking for pictures, and that added to the mystique. It's much more interesting when you're forced to imagine or guess at these things because usually it's better than reality.
- Chaos
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We're dealing with the chaos of life, and we're rubbing it down. The deeper you rub, the more patterns you can see until you realize that it's really an organized chaos. There isn't really ever any chance to understand it all, but we're here to keep rubbing.
- People

- Nov 07, 2020
We try to write things that can be interpreted on lots of different levels. There's not a right way or a wrong way... people can adventure a little.

We have pretty much all the facets of our business under our control now. Relying on someone else to do the right thing, you're just setting yourself up to get screwed. We control our own destiny and it's a really good feeling.

- Nov 07, 2020
We've always considered our music to be a healing process. It's our 'tool' to work things out with each other and try to communicate with each other and learn things. And it's good for everyone - us and our audience - to get together.
- Enough

- Nov 07, 2020
I think there is a collective unconsciousness, or some sort of consciousness, that you can tap into if you're open and brave enough to let everything go and be part of that.
- Horizons

- Nov 07, 2020
We've never really been susceptible to pressure from anyone from the outside. We've been really good at negating any outside influences. We're really hard on ourselves. The filter that we put upon things qualifying to end up on a Tool record is pretty extreme, so we figure we've got that part of it under control.
- Doing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We got full artistic integrity and autonomy over what we were doing, and that was the main important thing that kept our band alive.

- Late
