Strange experiences linked by love for Tool: Encounters with the supernatural may be connected to shared interests or experiences, and can leave a lasting impact

The speaker's friend's car accident, which occurred while listening to Tool's song "Jesus Open Up My Eyes," further reinforced this belief. When the speaker later learned that one of Tool's members was interested in sacred geometry and had allegedly summoned a demon, the pieces of the puzzle fell into place for the speaker. Although the speaker continues to appreciate the band's music, the knowledge of this connection makes listening to it with a sense of unease.
