Members of Tool felt that they and Hicks "were resonating similar concepts". Intending to raise awareness about Hicks's material and ideas, Tool dedicated their triple-platinum album "Ænima" (1996) to Hicks. Both the lenticular casing of the "Ænima" album packaging as well as the chorus of the title track "Ænema" make reference to a sketch from Hicks's "Arizona Bay" album, in which he contemplates the idea of Los Angeles falling into the Pacific Ocean. "Ænima"s final track, "Third Eye" contains samples from Hicks's "Dangerous" and "Relentless" albums.
