[edit] Re. Album Title

From the band's website:

"T is for Tool. Here's a lost tale of Lipsiana: the title of the rock-tastic Clouds Taste Metallic came from a story about sticking your head out the window of a small plane, told to Wayne by one of the dudes in Tool while both bands were traveling together on Lollapalooza '94." -http://www.flaminglips.com/main.php

But yeah I also heard about that whole Chernobyl thing too.

[edit] Error!

Notice the genre. Then notice the label this album was released on.

THEY CONTRADICT EACHOTHER.

That is all.

While it originated there the term "indie" doesn't necessarily mean it HAS to be released on a independent label. It also refers the general D.I.Y. aesthetics surrounding the record. What happens if an album is recorded for an independent label and then later on picked up by for distribution by a major label? It's the exact same music but by your criteria it would now need a new genre.--Lairor 21:41, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
