STRANGE FACTS ABOUT THE SONG " FAAIP DE OIAD " BY TOOL

Sweet thread man.

5 stars.

---
The caller later admitted that the whole thing was a prank, although there are people who say that the man who retracted the statement did not sound like the original caller. "Faaip de Ioiad" (note that the last word is not spelled "Oiad" as the track title) means "Voices of Your God" in Enochian Magic.

GE-1 HIT WITH APPARENT E.M.P. DURING "AREA-51" CONFESSION
[link to www.ufomind.com]

Whoever did this to satellite GE-1, back in '97, sacrificed 50 live on-air channels in order to get Art Bell's caller off the air.

"Midway through this call (according to GE engineers) the satellite's "Earth sensor lost lock" and the craft rolled into an attitude where it no longer pointed at the uplinks, causing 50 channels to go off-air for about 30 minutes. Shortly after the outage began, the live internet video feed from Art's studio was lost as well."

great find, AC!

Indeed, a while ago, i obtained the recording of the original interview.

Its a nice closing to the most brilliant album ever created.

where did you get it from?
have you posted it anywhere?

just interested...


i bought the tool album the day it came out. but never before dug into the song faaip de oiad this "deeply". it seems the boys from tool are interested in weird stuff also:)

Tool is seriously heavy. i was astounded by the lyrics of 10,000 days. those guys know something. i think they are messengers. excellent musicians and poets.

saw em
excellent live show

My sister thinks they belong to an OTO (I think that's what it's called). It's like the gnostic equivalent of a masonry lodge with 11 degrees instead of 36.
I forgot what OTO stood for. She tried to explain it all to me but did a crappy job of it.

Listen to Rosetta Stoned. That song was written for nut jobs that think Tool are a bunch of messengers. They are a great band, my favorite, but they are no different then anyone else. They mock those who say they are messengers.

weirdly..I know these words ."Faaip De Oiad" ..seems like I've known them forever(ish)

..it was the same when I read 'Tubal Cain' ...there are others..

oh... thanks for the info.

Caller, on you on Godlike?'

'Ordo Templi Orientis'

Proof that whoever was behind this stuff is using coast to coast as a way of leaking out information.

Ah! Thank you very much. ^.^

yesssssssss.... the tool guys are seriously serious

i would have thought everyone who listened to tool would have known that simply by the choice of artist for their album covers and other art merchandise... alex grey is the man for multi-dimensional art... deep into psychedelic and the energy of the human vehicle...

Speaking of "FAAIP DE OIAD," whatever happened to Aaron Capricorn?

What is the connection there? And maybe I'll tell you..

Tool are tapped into some serious demons. I wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole. Everything about them is creepy and unsettling. Blah

At one point it was one of his pseudonyms. He was a fascinating GLPer...lots of fascinating information. I didn't always agree with him, but he was one of those people who made you use your brain. If he really was a 24 year old sailor, he was wise beyond his years.

I've missed his posts.

...indeed.

GE-1 HIT WITH APPARENT E.M.P. DURING "AREA-51" CONFESSION

Art Bell hosts "Coast-to-Coast AM," a nightly talk show from Pahrump,
Nevada, a small town near "Area 51" (an airbase which the U.S. government
officially denies the existence of, despite the massive size of the
complex. UFO's are frequently seen near this site.) Art's radio program
is relayed from the studio in Pahrump to the network headquarters by
satellite GE-1. At about 1AM EST, Friday, September 12, 1997, he
designated one phone line for Area 51 employees to call in and "spill the
beans." Several interesting and convincing callers took the bait. Then
came one bizarre call from an obviously distraught and terrified man who
claimed to be a former Area 51 employee recently discharged for "medical"
reasons. He cited malevolent extraterrestrials at Area 51 and an impending
disaster that the government knew would take out "major population
centers." Midway through this call (according to GE engineers) the
satellite's "Earth sensor lost lock" and the craft rolled into an attitude
where it no longer pointed at the uplinks, causing 50 channels to go
off-air for about 30 minutes. Shortly after the outage began, the live
internet video feed from Art's studio was lost as well.

Unaware of these events, Bell continued talking to the caller for another
minute during the outage until he heard a scream and the phone went dead.
A reporter from Penthouse visiting the studio to gather information for a
story about the program witnessed the event and furiously took notes.
Minutes later, Bell received a call from his network on a conventional
analog "hotline" saying that he was "off the air." He checked the uplink
transmitter and saw that it had suffered complete loss of communication
with GE-1. At this point they resumed transmission on a 56k digital phone
line and went back on the air. Then the analog "hotline" to the network
cut out and Art was unable to speak to network engineers.

One of the first callers after the outage was someone who claimed to be
from Area-51 "security." He said that his job was to "close gaps," the
network had been "pulsed" and that we "would not hear from the caller
again." (An ElectroMagnetic Pulse is a method of overloading electronic
equipment in a target area; EMP generators were funded under the original
SDI research. The phenomenon was discovered by accident during the 1960's
when the phone network in Hawaii was disabled by a nuclear test 800 miles
distant.) Speculation about an EMP continued as this was "verified" by
several callers:

Some tool lyrics that tell me everything I need to know about the band:


-----------------------------

All you know about me is what I've sold you,
Dumb fuck.
I sold out long before you ever even heard my name.

I sold my soul to make a record,
Dip shit,
And then you bought one.

---------------------------

Nice huh?

taking the piss on shallow album chart staring trendy-wannabe teenies. who don´t get the big picture BTW.
