Fear Inoculum
Re: Fear Inoculum
So Salival cam with a little tab that you could lick and Fear Inoculum will come with a syringe, but in a very limited release causing Tool fans to share needles.

Re: Fear Inoculum
You could not be more wrong. Inoculum has no secondary definitions it is clear. A material used in the process of inoculation. That is it. Done. Anything else is assumption and supposition. Fear Inoculum is clearly defined as Fear being the material used in the process of inoculation. Absolutely no other functional usage that is it. Read any science journal on it or any dictionary definition that is the ONLY definition and the ONLY way it can be used.liz wrote: ↑Mon Jul 29, 2019 5:39 pmWhat crap.

To be more precise as it stands, Fear Inoculum would be the act of injecting Fear into an organism to create a resistance against a disease. So the only way you could get to your definition would be to make an assumption as to what the disease is. To further clarify, if we are going exactly as defined, your definition would be Using Fear as an Inoculum to create a resistance against Fear, which just comes off as foolish and long winded, not to mention having to create an assumption that Fear is the disease to make it work grammatically.
Mog Inoculum for example can be achieved by micro dosing with verbose repetitious rants. After a while the brain begins to actively, but subconsciously, decipher Moggisms and move them quickly on without unnecessary soiling and contamination of our higher functioning.

I never suggested that inoculum as a solitary word had more than one meaning. No one did.M0G wrote: ↑Mon Jul 29, 2019 6:05 pmYou could not be more wrong.

Re: Fear Inoculum
I like the title. So, Tool, you want to immunize me from fear? Have at it! Let's see what you got.

Re: Fear Inoculum
I'm excited for the title track. Please let it be the most psychedelic shit they've ever made.

Re: Fear Inoculum
Wow, some of you guys are arguing about the grammar behind the album title? Insufferable retards comes to mind.

Re: Fear Inoculum
Yeast, the microorganism that eats up sugar and produces alcohol for beer (or other alcoholic beverages), is considered an inoculum. Once yeast is inoculated (or pitched) into the beer wort, yeast reproduces exponentially 'til they eat up all the available sugar. Therefore, I interpret "fear inoculum" as something used to spread fear. I think that's M0G's interpretation as well.
Re: Fear Inoculum
I immediately interpreted it in a more negative light, I.e. not to do with developing immunity as the end goal, but more that we are simply being infected with fear (in a cultural sense).

Re: Fear Inoculum
I'm in the "using fear to immunize from fear" camp. I think that's wicked. The only way out is through.

Re: Fear Inoculum
If the title was Fear Lightning that would usually mean that you should be afraid of lightning.

Re: Fear Inoculum
Yikes! I knew TOOL fans were a little coo koo but yeah... I’ll hold off until the music is listened to and digested before I try to connect any dots. As is with most of their music it can be interpreted in many ways. One month to go crazies. When first read without my glasses I thought it was Feersum Ennjin lol.
Re: Fear Inoculum
I love the title, feels big or something
Re: Fear Inoculum
do they want us to fear an inoculum or is it an inoculum containing fear?

Re: Fear Inoculum
I think that the title refers to the self-imposed fear that lies at the heart of Tribalism and how fear is used and misused for power and political gain.
