i admit, that i voted for "shit" in the poll, but seeing all the efforts, threads to find its meaning, and all the possibilities you come up with, now im starting to beliew it is a sound. (or music- for me that doesnt really make a difference with such an artistic band - for me, this poll just asked whether it is shit or not)
But i still skip:-)

I think it's a good coast off at the end of the ride. It would be nice to know what it was all about though! Besides the number 23.

If you've ever heard Pink Floyd's "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" you would consider this music.

Only listened to it once, first time I listened to the album. Skip it every time since. Won't even rip it. If this piece has meaning I don't get it.

Pure shit. The one and only track on any Tool album to completely skip every time.

It ain't no Disgustipated, that's for sure.

Tool made this piece interesting. It's ambient, drone(ish), and looming. It doesn't have lyrics. I'd compare it to an ambient NIN track (although there are much better "ambient" musicians, just giving an example everyone here could relate too). Yes, it's music.

Why? It's new and original (for Tool at anyway). Then again, it's really not that different from Useful Idiot or (-) Ions.
