Tool taps into the sub-conscious?
Maybe this should've been posted in the Music thread, I dunno, but the OT section is a bit spammed up anyway.
NOTE: THIS ARTICLE IS NOT SKEPTIC-FRIENDLY, ALTHOUGH IT IS CONTROVERSIAL. Some of you may or may not know the band Tool, classified as proggresive metal, but that's not to point. I recently became interested the song Third Eye. Normally it would sound like a mediocre song with no musical structure to some of you, but it is much more. I saw this on a forum and a friend of mine also told me, that this song induces halucinations or visions. A couple of peopl have tried, including a friend, and me. As absurd as it may sound, it works. I know it may not seem logical, but it does work. I listened to the song carefully, with my eyes closed, and i felt like i left my body and entered another place. It was amazing, and I think that the structure of the song, along with some lyrics of some other elements actually create hallucinations. Most of you probably dont believe and are thinking wtf?, but I'm trying to be as serious as i can here. So I guess I just wanna inform everyone about this and I'm asking for people's opinions, unless your opinion is gonna be "You're an idiot. Someone close this thread now". If anyone wants to "try" the song, ask me for some guidelines. |
"MY SWEET SATAN! HE GIVES US POWER SIX SIX SIX! there is a little toolshed where he made us suffer, my sad satan.

Do It!

Its fun to smoke marijuana while burying Paul.

I SEE BRICKS EVERYWHERE!!! Brick! Brick! Brick! Brick! Another Brick! Another Brick! In The Wall! In The Wall! Another Brick In The Wall!
So, umm, yeah, anyone else tried it? Didn't work for me. Or maybe I'm just stupid. Which I doubt, having an IQ of about 135... |
What? The whole "Priest/Queen/Zep/Pink Floyd syncing thing? Yeah, in order of the awesomeness, least to great...
Priest: Eh, you hear it, but it doesn't really sound planned, you know? Pink Floyd/Wizard of Oz: A little, money with the bike horn, tiny things like that. Its okay. Stairway to Heaven: Right at the "Bustle in your hedgerow" part in this sinister My Sweet Satan crooning kicks in. On vinyl its hard to tell but run it backwards on your computer and its clear as a bell. Another One Bites The Dust: The chorus turns into "Its fun to smoke marijuana, ehay!" No mistaking it, plainly intended. |

You know what? Forget I said anyhing.

Third Eye is one of my favorite Tool songs. I have listened to it sober. I have listened to it on pot. I have listened to it on acid. I have listened to it on E. I have listened to it with eyes open. I have listened to it with eyes closed. I have never fucking hallucinated to it.
Your mind does what you tell it to do. |
Oddveteran93, what did you see when you hallucinated to Third Eye? Was it this guy?

I think you may have finally just experienced music more than just listening to melodic noise.
