TOOL - Fear Inoculum: Every Song Ranked From Worst To Best
9. Legion Inoculant
Fear Inoculum's fifth track serves as its second breather, sitting between "Invincible" and "Descending" - two of the album's biggest highlights (you'll need to read on to see where they landed with your author).
"Legion Inoculant" is the record at its most ambient. It's a light, refreshing respite and a break from the density surrounding it. Carried by an almost otherworldly feel, it, like "Litanie Contre La Peur," isn't something the listener needs to ruminate over, though its stronger dynamics make for a more engaging experience.
While it gets louder and noisier towards the end, "Legion Inoculant" never truly erupts from your speakers. Its burst of life dies off before the interlude can transition into a full-on song.
