Hidden Grooves on the Vinyl

This song is on the CD because it is on the Vinyl, and on the vinyl it IS at the end of one side to appear to be hitting the paper, and you think you missed out on a song called usefull idiot, a short song at that. Unless of course you realise that the vinyl actually has a parallel track starting at the start of the song which always gets skipped if you play on from track 3, and i mean, after hearing it once, who purposly goes to track 4? unless you know to put the stylus into the short parallel track. I can't believe somebody hasn't noticed this earlier. Not that it is a particulary interesting song, some lame sound effect and words that sound like :elbillug elbillug or something I can't quite make it out.

I think he's just talking about the same version as on CD, but it is a little more eerie because it makes the same sound as the vinyl ends..

no, its a different song, well, not a song as much, more like ions, you know, sounds and stuff, not so much of a melody etc
anyway, its not hard to find, just get someone with a vinyl copy and listen to it

Pretty funny. I've been meaning to aquire all the vynil's latley, although all the one's I have foudn are opiate and undertow. As usual, Tool keeps its reputation as a pretty free thinking, satirical band. I think taking a joke like this seriously is pretty much what they want. Someone following them like a religion to prove their own point.

or perhaps they are attempting to mimick life in the sense that the only reason it is ihteresting is because you can never get it all...
