    The drummer is Danny Carey. They call him, "The Octopus."
    If you watch the live drum cam version of 'Pneuma,' you will crap your brain out trying to analyze his drum skills.. So just enjoy the Majesty of Danny's drums. ❤️

    "Learn To Swim" to me is a reference of Cali breaking off and descending into the Pacific.....he also said "See You in Arizona Bay".....The cover art on this CD was Lenticular Art and an inside piece of art was a map of the USA where it is complete when looking from one direction and the opposite direction Cali was no longer.

    You're going to enjoy Tool brother. They have tons of metaphors, and each song means different things for different people at different times of life. They tell you how it is; but offer a much greater perspective even into the spiritual and more humane and vulnerable elements as well. In my opinion, they are second to none when it comes to encapsulating what it means to be a human.

    "Arizona Bay" was the business name for an entertainment production company that the late comedian Bill Hicks planned to operate once he retired from doing stand-up comedy. Hicks and TOOL's vocalist, Maynard James Keenan, became close friends only a few years prior to Hicks' untimely death from an aggressive cancer. Maynard and Hicks had a shared contempt for LA and LA people. The concept of. "Arizona Bay" comes from a Hicks comedy bit where he rants about wanting California to just slide off into the ocean, thus creating a Pacific ocean coast line/bay for Arizona. Hicks actually opened a number of TOOL concerts prior to his death. The band and Hicks were in the beginning stages of planning ways to creatively work Hicks into parts of TOOL's live show when he fell ill. The entire Aenima album is a dedication to and a memorial of Hicks. There are a clips of Hicks speaking a couple times on the album and the CD art includes a painting of him in a lab coat. Every song on the album has a tie in to Hicks. Some are blatant references to him, others are really obscure and took me 15-20 years to realize, but Hicks is remembered in every track. Think for yourself. Question authority.

      Maynard tells you to read between the lines in the song, right after telling you not to dismiss him as a pessimist.
      It's about LA being an utter cesspool, but that it could be fixed if people cared less about appearances, possessions, money, power etc. It's basically hoping to smack the stupid out of enough people to make that change and heavily erroneous focus on all the superficial bullshit that's the center of so many people's lives.

    Tool lyrics are often deep and introspective but if you focus on just the lyrics you're missing out on so much more. Need all four components. Maynard's voice is a self-described fourth instrument. Take it ALL in. Spiral out, dude.

    Learn to swim is in reference to his hope that california will fall into the ocean, which is why 'Arizona Bay' is created

    I recommend trying out a song from their newest album. I recommend Pneuma or Descending. Can’t wait for the next Tool reaction. Spiral out 🌀

    Mom is Mother Nature...Learn to Swim is literal, when the quakes hit and the Bay of Arizona is formed, they'll need this skill.

    Arizona Bay is reference to the resulting pool of water when LA falls into the ocean.

    Learn to swim is referring to "mother nature/earth" cleansing California by causing an earthquake and having California break off mainland U.S. and slide into the Pacific. learn to swim is for all the residents of California so they'll possibly be able to survive the cataclysmic event by possibly swimming to shore. the song was written 30 years ago and is still relevant today...amazing
