help a nigga out

hmmmm bump bump for whitey

It looks like runic symbols to me.

come on fags i know someone knows this

jees and i thought this was gfy where everyone knew everything.

Are you sure that it is a language, and not just symbols?

Sorry my friend. That would be Here

Who knows but A Perfect Circle and Tool rocks.

im not sure at all actually.. im assuming its symbols witha name and not just made up... that actually have meaning. i could be wrong. and yea i have been searching google for quite awhile now

Brother Dog Ho, these look like redesigned variations of zodiac symbols.

Astrology.

Whats more interesting is the choice of each relating to Terot deck.

There is also some Kabbalistic symbology in it.

Relating to change through destruction.

The coded text running down the center of the cover reads 'La Cascade Des Prenoms' - a fragment of the original title for the record ('La cascade de prénoms pour une mer de noms,' rough translation: the cascade/stream of first names for a sea of names).

good work bigben

Good find man:) Mayan, and there is alot of Mayan similarities in Terot symbology. Cross some of the similer symbols with The Terot link above, its interesting.

next time i see maynard ill ask him

Looks like something my 3 year old would color. You looking to get a tatoo Trey with marking like this? If so I will send my 3 year old over pronto ;)

DH

i dont see the Mayan similarity at all

i saw the site bigben posted, didnt tell me much about the writing, more like his interpretation of what they were

thats pretty funny, ill have to call your 3 yr old some time and ask him why his dad is such a dipshit :)

interesting tat, unique... doubt the guy has a fukin clue what it means.. which IS why im asking... I have something I want to fix on my neck (tat) and i need 3 symbols. so im looking for a dictoionairy of this writing if one exists

LOL! :1orglaugh

DH

it seems this is an alphabet that APC wrote on their own and was suppose to release it, but never did... anyone that can prove me otherwise gets 100 bucks.

there are 5 symbols on this cover

i think i see 9 letters maybe 10...

anyone up to the challenge?

it says a perfect circle :winkwink: http://com.webspacemania.com/smiley/

we call that "graphic design"

still rokin it up shit head? hope it was worth it loser. haha

lol whoops

Who came up with the logo and what does it symbolize? Also, what aboutsome of the other visuals, such as the artwork on the record?

A. Billy: The logo, really, thought it was important to have something to identify with other than a name; something visual. Bands I?ve liked when I was a kid, you know, had strong ? some strong visual images. And, I?m just glad ? this one has a bit of significance to it. You know, there?s an image there that?s a little hard to see. You know, it kind of reflects the way I was feeling for a long time. You know, you?re in-between girlfriends,feeling terrible about yourself and feeling like no one can see you unless they look really hard, and no one?s really bothering to, and wanted to almost have an image that says that visually, without having to say it in words. You know, if there?s something there, you have to look a little harder.

And, I think the ? you know, the nicest things in life are found through that; things that aren?t so apparent at first. And, you know,hopefully, some of the things in this band will, you know, take shape later on. And, figure out that?s maybe a little more than it actually seems at the moment. And, as far as imagery, on the album cover, the same kind of thing.

Createda little bit of our own language there, as far as written. It?s just to not give it away at first. You know, people hear the words and songs, and you don?t quite hear them all. And, you start putting your own interpretations on it. I think it?s really important to do that early-on. You start reading exactly the story that the lyricist wanted you to know. And, you might miss a lot of things that were special to you; some special times that these songs ? they just have ? the song puts the glue into the certain situation that you ? you?re out on a sunny day on the right day and the right situation and this song means something else, because you just caught on aline.

So, having the lyrics written out in the album, you might have missed that altogether. So, we?re going to include the lyrics in the record, but we?re not going to give the key to it until later on. Probably put that key on the Internet, as far as what these little hieroglyphs that we came upwith. It just adds a little bit of mystique in a right way, to me

learn to spell fag
