So how does this relate to Tool? In their album Lateralus, the title track refers to the Fibonacci spiral (through the lyrics spiral out) which is a shape created when plotting the opposite corners of squares in Fibonacci tiling. Not only that, but the lyrics of the song follow this same sequence through the number of syllables in each line.
