Re: New Meaning To the World La-Te-Ra-Lu-s

if anyone bothered to read the whole thread, you'll see about 15 people who have said that, some with better translations than others... but since no one will, could i call your attention to vitriol?
V isita "Visit"
I nteriora the "interior"
T errae "of the earth;"
R ectificando "in rectifying,"
I nvenies "discover"
O ccultum "the hidden"
L apidem "stone."
kind of similar, but not completely. however, this is very important to the mystery, as we've seen many times before on the thread. please read the thread, the whole thing, i'm begging you. i'd see this through to the end if it wasn't for chicks stealing my attention. but if you read the thread, we won't have to re-invent the wheel. also its great stuff.

Lateralus - working title was 9-8-7

La-te-ra-lus = 9 letters
La-te-ra-us = 8 letters
La-te-ra-l = 7 letters

Re: New Meaning To the World La-Te-Ra-Lu-s

I can't believe this has people thinking so much.

Am I to believe that Tool collectively ventured high into the Himalyas to study with Buddhist priests on a hundred years' journey to encrypt divinr messages into an album title? Can you picture Tool laboring over a periodic table, analyzing ions, sequences, melting points, Latin nomenclature, alchemical pseudo-interactions...?

They thought up the word Lateralus, then split it up to make Elemental symbols and lead all of you on a wild goose chase for the impossible.

I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS!
