The band
Tool released a song, "Ænema," from their album ''Ænima'', which repeats the theme of Los Angeles being drowned in the Arizona Bay. Bill Hicks has always been a heavy influence on Tool's albums:
:"Who's that talking at the start of "Third Eye"? - That would be the aforementioned Bill Hicks; those are snips of comedy routines of his, from "The War On Drugs" (off his CD ''Dangerous'') and "Drugs Have Done Good Things" (off ''Relentless''). In fact, on his CD ''Rant in E Minor'', he refers to the power that heavy doses of hallucinogens have to "squeegee his third eye."
