Tool's Epic Do-It-Yourself Song

Three separate tracks from the latest Tool album can be assembled into a different one -- it's like Voltron, only with progressive metal songs instead of progressive metal robots (seriously, those guys had a woman pilot before most airlines). But plenty of bands do multi-part songs, so there's nothing special about it, right?

Well, the difference is that, in this case, you don't get the full song by doing something as mundane as playing one track after the other -- you get it by changing the order and playing them at the same time.

By themselves, the songs seem completely different: "10,000 Days" (11:13) is a long prog-rock number, "Wings for Marie" (6:11) is a quiet song that builds up into a crescendo, and "Viginti Tres" (5:02) is just a bunch of weird noises. 6:11 plus 5:02 adds up to 11:13 -- that's because you're supposed to put "Viginti Tres" and "Wings for Marie" together (in that order) and play them at the same time as "10,000 Days."

If that sounds too complicated for you, check out the demonstration above. You'll notice that the weird sounds from "Viginti Tres" seem to be in sync with the melody of "10,000 Days."

The band has never acknowledged any of this, but if you listen to the full song it's pretty obvious that they did this intentionally ... which is both mind-blowingly awesome and a little bit insane.

@joshkidwell3

Your dad is fucking awesome. :)

[mdunn2093]

i think if you did a little bit of eq mixing to make the voice at the end more dominant you have a perfect masterpiece

[TheOriginalEntz]

Is there a louder version out there? That mp3 is really artificially queited and there is a hiss added so you can;t turn it up anyway. I have the album the songs one by one do not have the hiss... it's like a bad analogue recording ... and the rain is a lot more clear on cd... what gives? May just have to make my own version in Audacity ...

My dad introduced me to Tool when I was about 11 and they will always be my favorite band, no doubt.

@FLIPPITYFLOOP I still think that they create these masterpieces rather quick...

[P1nku5floydu5]

@blackbirdlore But the harmonic tones of Maynards voice at the beginning of Wings of Marry add the perfect balance to the heavy beat of 10,000 days, I wish I had headphones to hear this.

I love these songs, and while the idea is good, it doesn't carry through all the way. Take the last two minutes for example: The overlapping lines are delivered out of sync, creating a pseudo-reverb effect that muddles everything he says- words which are, in my opinion, the most powerful lyrics in the whole song. Just my two cents.

a complex and hidden song for a his departed mother. he truely is a good son.
