Tool thread

Thoughts on this album? The rest of their catalog?

this is screwdriver

>Thoughts on this album?

it's ok. much sludgier than anything they've released

Pretty cool, but not as strong as their other albums.

they're pretty good, they get bonus points for being anti pitchfork core

My favorite Tool album. It was almost like an expansion of Opiate but with a more definite style. AEnima is a close second for me.

Nihilism in music form

Tool would be much better if Keenan didn't write the lyrics. I like his voice though.

I would have to disagree. If he didn't write the band wouldn't have the tone and melodies they're so renown for.

their best album imo but i love that fucking deep, swampy sludge metal sound

Tool a shit.

My favorite Tool but maybe just nostalgia cuz it's the first one I heard.

how does it feel knowing that they'll never release another album?

Undertow - had good moments but some of the middle-ish tracks are boring
AEnima - is great but has too many filler tracks
Lateralus - is a-ok
10,000 days - has it's moments, title track is boring not that good. Also the filler tracks suck.

agreed

i just went through and deleted all of the cringey skits on AEnima
so obnoxious and unnecessary

Angsty. Thankfully they got better as they kept going

They were really into Bill Hicks I guess. They admired his intelligent, nihilistic outlook, and wicked sense of humor.

If this is fuckin' Lyle then get back to fucking FOAD and kill all the ice asses.


tooL

is that sarcasm?

btw. hi, quad god

>Undertow
A bit too angry and doesn't really show TOOL at thier peak.
>AEnema
The prefect blend of anger and mysterious quirkyness, the ultimate TOOL album.
>Lateralus
Too much LCD: A really good album but kind of lost that unique touch TOOL, it still has it but not quite like the album before it.
>10 000 days
watered down and generic TOOL for the masses.

I always loved: Lateralus, Jambi, Pot, Vicarious, Hooker With a Penis, Prison Sex, these tracks are like always getting to me and my soft spots.

These are probably the most enjoyable in all occasions imo
