This is one of those stupid questions that everyone probably knows already and I just happen to be the poor fool who doesn't but either way....
Someone once told be that there's a way you can play Lateralus to where all the songs have "perfect flow." Does anyone know what order I'm suppose to play the songs?

I've seen a few different ones, but the most common one is the "spiral pattern", which is:
Parabol Parabola Schism Ticks and Leeches Mantra Lateralus The Patient Disposition Eon Blue Apocalypse Reflection The Grudge Triad Faaip De Oiad

I've only heard of two, one of which is the one Halo already mentioned, also called as "The Lateralus Prophecy", and the other one is called "The Holy Gift":

Thanks alot. I listened to "Spiral Pattern" last night. Tonight I'll tackle "Holy Gift" But yeah I can hear the whole "perfect flow" thing. It'd sound alot better if my damn stereo didn't have such a long delayed reaction between songs.

Yeah, thats to be expected, Ideally you can take out the silences using certain computer software. Seeing as im a computer n00b I think you can get it by "editing" the song in Nero Burner.

im prety sure the spiral sequence is the prefered one i dunno which one is right but most of the songs were done using the fibonacci sequence eg Parabol, Parabola.
*Fibonacci Sequence = 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233 ect..
Thus 1 and 1 are 2, 1 and 2 are 3, 2 and 3 are 5, and so on.
hence the spiral sequence as this is used to construct Pythagoras's golden spiral
and the lyrics in some of the songs refect this "ride the spiral to the end" so on

*Fibonacci Sequence = 1,1,2,3,5,8,15,21,34,55,89,144,233 ect.. You're "15" should be a "13".

interesting note if this hasnt come up. fibonaci number - 987 the main riff in lateraluse (first heavy bit) has 3 musical measures, one of 9/8, one of 8/8 and one of 7/8 aaaand if you listen to the lyrics black -1 then -1 white are -2 all I see -3 in my infancy -5 red and yellow then came to be -8 reaching out to me -5 (and so on) then later in the song you will notice he sings about spirals, and live they have spirals playing on the big screens =D
