I just LOVE how Parabol segues into Parabola! That solo is godly... in fact the whole thing is godly. It sort of has its own momentum if you know what I mean - it's as if you're riding on a wave while listening to it. P/P is the best thing Tool have ever done IMO and that's saying a lot... I guess I'm still a fanboy

Meanwhile, the prospect of this excites me. I feel that Adam Jones is one of the few modern guitarists who really *gets* the Frippian anti-solo concept so this could end up being quite interesting. In fact, I think it was MJK who said that King Crimson is pretty much the band they'd been ripping off over the years.
