ok so you just called me pretentious but peep it.


In July 2017 Maynard's friend Joe Rogan described his writing process in a podcast; "He wrote a song to the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci sequence is a mathematical sequence. It starts from 1, the next number is 1, and the next number being 2, creates the 2+1 which is 3, continuing in this mathematical progression. That’s how they found the chord progression. It began linking up to the Fibonacci sequence." The syllables Maynard sings in the first verse follow the first six numbers in the pattern, ascending and descending in the sequence 1-1-2-3-5-8-5-3. "Black (1), then (1), white are (2), all I see (3), in my infancy (5). Red and yellow then came to be (8), reaching out to me (5). Lets me see (3)." In the next verse, Maynard begins with the seventh number of the Fibonacci sequence (13), implying a missing verse in between. He descends back down with the following pattern; 13-8-5-3. "As below so above and beyond I imagine (13). Drawn beyond the lines of reason (8). Push the envelope (5). Watch it bend (3)." The second verse adds the missing line to complete the sequence; "There is (2), so (1), much (1), more and (2), beckons me (3), to look through to these (5), infinite possibilities (8)." 1-1-2-3-5-8-5-3-2-1-1-2-3-5-8-13-8-5-3.[5][3][6]


meanwhile, bruckner does actual math, not gay pretentious paint by numbers he explains to Joe Rogan.queers

it's sibelius today anyway.

Oh. Yes, I listened to them as a child myself. I moved on from that years ago after I acquired the ears to truly appreciate artists with a less facile approach to music.

I'm just insulting your choice of genre to be clear.

well thats just nonsensical. u might even say, derived from a pretense.

but i guess all "genres" have comparable catalogs of literature, since art is subjective. so i feel it 1000%

Even Tool doesn't like their fans. They constantly fuck with them, like the time they convinced them that the band practices "Crying magic".

I really like APC too and I think I'm most interested in Maynard's relationship with his mother.

Goes from anger about her faith, to acceptance and reverence after she dies, basically demanding that God let her into heaven and all other Christians are noobs when compared to her.

Wings for Marie/10,000 days turned into one of my favorite songs. Love it.

I just like the way Tool sounds. You can write an essay on why your choice of music, carefully curated to maintain an upper class aesthetic, is superior and I think that therefore yu'r music preference is pretentious.
