Salival

Salival is a limited edition box set in CD/VHS and CD/DVD formats released in 2000 by American rock band Tool. It includes a 56-page book of photos and stills from their music videos. As the box set has now been out of print for some time, it can only be found secondhand, usually at a price disproportionate to its original recommended retail price as it has become coveted by collectors. As VHS has now become all but obsolete, the DVD version tends to retail for a higher price as it is in higher demand. A sticker on the cover advertised the "new studio album" arriving April 17, 2001, Maynard's birthday, but was ultimately pushed back a month. The track "You Lied" is a cover of a song by bass player Justin Chancellor's previous band Peach. The cover of Led Zeppelin's "No Quarter" was originally recorded for the soundtrack of Private Parts, but Tool subsequently decided against allowing it to be used, leading to criticism from Howard Stern, who had previously endorsed the band.[citation needed]. The segue "LAMC" is known for being in one long measure of 495/4 time signature, starting with a 2/4 bar and gradually increasing, until it reaches 31/4 and the caller hangs up only to redial which starts the cycle all over again before fading out.
"Message to Harry Manback II", "No Quarter", and "LAMC" were recorded during the sessions for Ænima though they were slightly re-recorded before being released on Salival.
