You must have had your shit set on replay bro! I give it up to Metallica, they've definately paved the way for most of modern rock, an' i've been listenin to 'em since Kill 'em all first came out. I've also seen them bout 10 times, but you just can't fuck with Tool. Their songs sound the same in that every one of them kills, but that's about it. Anyway, that's my take!

listen to sober and then wings for marie and tell me that...
You might get away with saying that the opiate and undertow cd's sound similar. but since then each album has been completely different.
And ya songs on any one given album may have a similar sound but thats just the way tool works.
Now metallica, that all sounds the same

FUCKER!!!!
Nah, sweet for you bro!!! They haven't announced any dates up here yet, but i'm watchin for it!! Two years ago I got to see them 3 times in about 3 months!!!! ( Coachella, Vancouver,BC on a Tuesday, then @ The Gorge Amphitheatre in George,WA that same Sunday!!!! ) I've seen many, many bands live, and no one even comes close to Tool. Well, Rage was just about as good, just on a different vibe, ya know? They are consumate musicians, and the people who know how music is made just shake their heads in wonder and amazement!! Diggin' your avatar!!! Ya ever checked out Alex Grey's website? Sweet shit!!!

Two questions for you Jou. Have you ever seen Tool live? And have you ever seen Metallica live? For me, that is the ultimate measuring stick. I've seen both bands about 10 times live. Metallica is great. Tool is untouchable.Even though GT dislikes me in chat, I must agree with him. Tool is pretty damned good but Metallica takes the cake.

Being one of the biggest tool fans on the planet i almost posted about how i couldnt even see how the two bands compare. but then i thought about metallicas heyday. they WERE the shit.. now they are well, shit... their music just went down hill, since load. and thats being generous. yet their earlier music was fucking amazing. and ill no argue that.
but ive been to MANY live shows. and as it is i cant see ANY band ever coming close to a tool show. maybe its just because i dig the music so much. ive been to 2 shows, i actually shed tears at the first tool show i saw. yeah know it sounds all pussyfied but, i did. tool live speaks to your soul. i road tripped 750 miles to seee them in chicago, they played right in two the first time ever there, it was amazing. they took a brief intermission and i swear, i thought we were gonna bring the fucking theatre down with all the hell raising that was going on... it must have been heard for 5 miles away.
metallica was good, but tool will be the next generations pink floyd. metallica will go down as a brilliant band that blew out in the early 90's

I remember talking about Tool with one of my friends about 10 years ago.
He was a big Tool fan, so I asked him. What kind of music is Tool?
His reply was "Tool is thinking music"
Haha I laughed so hard and so did he. Good times

And I hate to correct all of you, but The Beatles is the greatest band to ever live

That's what i'm talkin about!! I agree with everything you said, but want to add that Pink Floyd, while masterful, and very comperable to Tool in the way they fit, or actually didn't fit, into their genre, they could never hit anywhere near as hard as Tool, and that's just somethin' I need!!! They take you on a musical journey, let you drift for awhile, then pick you up and slam you down. That's what I need!!! Hahaha
Big Toe!! Yeah, it definately is thinking music. Thinking, delving, exploring, imagining, conciousness expanding, transforming, adjective, adjective, adjective, ad infinitum...........you name it, you can feel the reality.
The Beatles were great; key word being were. And they were from a completely different era, so it's hard to compare. I might say they WERE the best ENGLISH band, but i would probably debate that as well. Popular, sure. Talented, of course, but maybe better lyrically than musically ( I could play Ringo's sets when I was 12 ). Trend setters, most definately ( if that's your thing ). Did they benefit from extreme media exposure and hysteria, assuredly. But I will tell you this, if you put the two bands side by side on stage, there's no question that Tool would be the one to kick your ass!!

I need to find a way to take all the pictures I have from Tool shows, and get 'em on here. Not digital ones, the actual pics that you hold in your hand. I've got a scanner, but that would be fuckin' tedious!! I think I have a few from the last Coachella show on here though. I got popped at a show once by security when I was filmin' with my digi-cam. Fuckers stipped my camera, made me give 'em the memory card, mini-cassette, AND battery pack!!! Fuckin cock suckin muther fuckin shit hole fucks!!! I had some serious footage, close ups of all the action, still pics, everything. They've been on this kick lately of not allowing you to even take pictures ( which is about the lamest fuckin thing i ever heard ). Only negative thing I can ever say about Tool, cause the orders come straight from the band. They don't need to be THAT goddamn secretive and reclusive!
Anyway, let's see if I have some pics on here from Coachella. It was sweet cause we camped before and after the show @ Joshua Tree National Park, trippin around on the rock formations, fuckin with rattlesnakes ( yeah, i've been bit before, by a western diamondback, but that was in Yakima! ). The whole trip was the SHIT!!
Alright, I found 'em! I was with my friends " G " ( big, bald samsquamch lookin dude ) and " J " who is just as weird, only shorter!! I'm just gonna throw up a lot of pics from the show and Joshua Tree, and if you don't like it, I don't really care!!! Hahahaha
