There's something in that Album Art Image!

Upon enlarging, I think there is something else going on in the album art. I made an animation to show you. Clearly there is an Easter Island type of face there lying on its back, facing upwards. It seems like some type of tribal face, or statuesque figure in some sort of energetic transformation. Clearly that has some type of relation right? Perhaps the rest of the insert booklet travels along this "body" showing how it blends into the landscape. Kinda "Down to Earth" huh? Also, if it looks kinda Indonesian, perhaps that is a link to the Jambi reference or the tribal-style vocals alluded to in at some of the listening parties!

Mindfuck!?

[MoreTool]

looks like Kid A artwork

[gl0tch]

I'm not seeing it. The problem is you seem to be thinking in references and not revelations.

[KJM]

actually looks more like the live album by radiohead.

[Animus X torsi]

i think that was all you on that, i don't see where this could have much importance, even if there was really any sublimal clue.

[krumz]

this is like over analyzing! neat tho'

[Metal Militia]

It's Jesus wearing a crown of thorns. I think it's clear that Tool is now a christian rock band.

[Animus X torsi]

i think its a picture of maynard as jesus, actually

[gl0tch]

they wouldnt do that. But it does sorta look crown like

[lachrymoIogy]

maynard IS jesus...

[awaking]

[gl0tch]

I sure as fuck hope not.

I dunno... feels a little too much like seeing things in clouds...

[Boozy Eulogist]

What's with all the Kid A talk? Kid A looks like many albums before it. Hell, we get 40+ CDs a week and rarely does something not look like something else.

I think that is kinda significant dont you?

[you_lied]

My CD cover is a picture of my taint. And yes, I freely admit I ripped the idea from a late-70s Juice Newton album. It's like holding up a mirror. To my taint.

it's now been confirmed fake by adam via myspace.

Cool observation and you have an active immagination but, time(toolband) will tell if its really real or not.

[TurdEye13]

The effort is good.....ur....no, but glOtch, why oh why did you invest time in this?

seriously

[gl0tch]

it took all but 5 seconds to make that animated gif.

[SpiralOutKeepGoing]

it took all but 5 seconds to make that animated gif.

Thanks. We will never trust you again.

[gl0tch]

what are you talking about? I saw the face in the art that was posted, saved it to photoshop, traced out the face and saved the animation. Whoopdy Doo. What does that have to do about trusting people?

[lachrymoIogy]

it's now been confirmed fake by adam via myspace. where was this confirmed? toolarmy?

[gl0tch]

well it seems what he means in an email Adam inquired about where the "fake" album art came from.

I'd like to know why to be honest. Why would he express interest if it wasnt important for some reason?

[SuperSteve]

[Ganjalf]

that kinda proves that the name and shit are fake cause hes insisting they are real to make you believe they are, why even bring the name and track names up when we are talking about a fake album cover that was leaked

[Rubb.]

i just posted the whole message. didn't care to edit it. k?

[ATARI]

I'll laugh when it turns out the album cover is nothing other than a huge penis

[Rubb.]

or two huge penises tied in a knot.

[Colonel Pants]

My guess is because he's been getting lots of messages asking about the album and track titles, so he just said it kind of automatically.

[toology514]

where did you get the image??
