what is your honest opinion on Tool?

Pretty good when they're making straight forward songs, but the progressive wankfests they get praise for are boring as fuck.

>MUH FIBBONACI

I like them, but they get a lot of unneccessary hate for their fans who think the music is completly transcendient and that you can learn something from it. That is partially Tools fault tho

An average at best prog metal band with an insufferablely arrogant fan base.

Really good.

Juggalo Radiohead.

When i was a kid i was really creeped out by thos claymation videos.

This

One of favorite bands of all time. But a lot of their fans are insufferable, and maynards an asshole

can't wait for the new album to drop

Liked it well enough in middle school and high school. Haven't heard much by them since. They're neat. Maynard is a pretentious cunt though, and their fanbase is pretty annoying sometimes.

>no praise for the quints after 20 minutes
nani?

It's my favourite band. They have really good lyrics, that's a very strong point for me.
Danny is an amazing drummer and unlike many people, i really enjoy those long progressive tracks (I still prefer their heavy songs like Hooker With A Penis or Aenima)
9/10 band for me, folks. Full of art and personality.
(Also ALEX FUCKING GREY)

Have you read the Maynard book?

doot

I've listened to Lateralus a bunch and only once half listened to Ænima
Really liked Lateralus and have been meaning to give the rest a listen but just haven't gotten around to it
I also havent met any of their insufferable fans somehow, where are you guys finding these people? Maybe it's just because i dont listen to much metal

Tool isn't metal reeee

They're good and they would have been better if they had released more material in their prime

Undertow is a really good album, and most of the songs on Aenima are great as well... but their last two albums do nothing for me. They are meandering and repetitive.
I wish they would focus more on creating good songs, instead of whatever it is they are up to nowadays.

C H E C K E D

Tool is just soft rock dronefest desu

lmao what a pleb faggot

Prison Sex is a really good song, nothing else of theirs real lives up to it.

>I also havent met any of their insufferable fans somehow, where are you guys finding these people?

They were everywhere on internet forums in the early-mid 2000s. I got turned off from listening to them for the longest time because of the people who were vocal about their support of Tool.

Kind of wish I listened to them earlier though. They would have been a great band for teenager me. Still enjoy listening to them from time to time but I have to be in the right mood for it.

Good band up to Aenima

Lateralus is just retarded.

10,000 days was better, but kinda long and boring at some parts.

Also lyrics range from brilliant to fucking stupid.

Fan base takes Maynard too seriously.

Honestly these guys seem like they wanna be done with this whole band, but out of fear of their cringy fan base buringing down their houses they feel they need to make another album.

Danny told my friend back in 2012 it would be another 5 to 6 years before the next record was done.

THIS
IS
NECESSARY

It's ok to admit that they're a group of talented musicians who somehow end up making mediocre radio prog rock. There's no need to insult other people for your shit tastes.

I like the Tool

"cool" sounding but pretty shallow

fpbp also checking them digits.
