Ænima
Ænima is an album released by Tool in September 1996.
Album Information
It contains a dedication (of sorts) to the late comedian Bill Hicks, proclaiming him "Another Dead Hero"; the final track, the thirteen minute epic "Third Eye", uses a few samples of Hicks' sketches -- including his infamous "Drugs have done good things for us."
A video was made to accompany "Stinkfist", the opening track, and has helped make the track one of the most popular choices for club DJs playing Tool -- because of its popularity, familiarity and suitability, given the length and style of most of the other songs.
The album was recorded at Ocean Way, Hollywood, California and The Hook, North Hollywood, California in 1995.
