Got into Tool somewhat recently (in terms of my average distance between posts here, I suppose it was only yesterday), really great music. Had some profound acid trips listening to them, and at one point while reading The Book of Lies; Tool are fans of Crowley, you see, so it seemed appropriate. I still don’t really understand what The Book of Lies actually is, and have never bothered to research it, there’s just a copy of it always on the shelf cos my flatmate reads Crowley, but the lies within do they somehow make more sense when I’m tripping. Crowley was a fiend himself, which I can relate to, I love all the drugs that aren’t crack, heroin or fentanyl. Curious to give his book, Confessions of a Drug Fiend a bash, as Crowley and esoteric stuff keeps coming to me in random places and it’s just getting weird now, so why not.
On the electronic side, I’m absolutely loving Oneohtrix Point Never. I have no dialogue or commentary to offer here as while I love his music, it’s not been as significant as Tool.
