Blair is famous for fucking around with the whole Tool fanbase on a regular basis. He seems like a nice guy, but when it comes to Tool related questions never expect a straight answer. I posted a review of what I thought of the so called "Holy Gift" on the other thread. My final opinion was "nice idea, but it doesn't execute properly." I'm still slightly vexed that no-one else has bothered to post a breakdown of what they thought. I think a lot of people are influenced by the "mysticism" involved in Tool, while forgetting what makes good musical sense. I would guarantee that if (when Lateralus came out) they had done some psychological study where you played Lateralus in it's original order and then in the "Holy Gift" order, almost all the fans would prefer the normal order because of things like the D/R'/T section and stuff like that. I'm rambling again and wheeee. Hi.
