Alrighty then, picture this if you will

@TerribleYou Tool helped me escape. Hopefully it can for you too, brother.

@jointhemodernworld I know where you're trying to get at, but two words: Reasonable Doubt. A lot of it. Tool is one of my favorite bands whether or not they are tongue-in-cheek.
And Alex Grey is the perfect little cherry on top.

@jointhemodernworld They took the unorthodox, songs-without-vertebrae-song-s
tructure traits of King Crimson and carried the flag for miles. They have great concept albums that are grandiose and massive. That's without a doubt. Hear the lyrics. Hear the songs. I know most of their fans are stoners and dropouts, but who cares? How many great bands are there that aren't stoned. Scratch that. How many great bands are there that AREN'T? These guys are obviously influential to some extent. -
@jointhemodernworld Here we fucking go again...
So many people like you. I don't give a shit if they're a bunch of pseudo-intellectual bastards. Just listen to them is all you need to do. These guys have a cult building around them. Ya think Isis, Neurosis, Opeth, Dillinger Escape Plan, Porcupine Tree, Riverside, The Mars Volta, and Mastodon just came to be? Of course not. Tool has their sausage fingerprints smothered all over each of them.

The gate that let's you in.

The fact of the matter is, any moron can understand Tool, but the hidden appealof Tool lies in the fact that they give the illusion of being a band for smart people. They do this, as any Tool fan knows, by throwing in jumbled references to high school psychology, obscure religious references, and miscellaneous meaningless nonsense. Bullshit or not, as long as there’s something there to figure out or interpret, it’s going to make some stoned dropout feel smart.

@jointhemodernworld ARE YOU SHITTING ME?!
Danny Carey is THE most technically proficient drummer I've ever heard. His TECHNICAL drumming is the most impressive I've ever known. I stress technical because I don't consider speed part of technique. Speed takes exercise, while technique takes PRACTICE. And goddammit does he have technique.
Like, fuck, listen to Ticks & Leeches, The Grudge, Parabola, Forty Six & 2, Vicarious, Roseta Stoned, Right in Two... The list goes on.

@Leaveatrailoflies Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.. Reminds me of the old phrase "Don't knock it until you've tried it" springs to mind. I used to share your position, until I had the life changing experience that has left me permanently re-wired as a result. Even in my wildest dreams, I could not have possibly imagined what occurs in a full break-through experience. I can only add that the Egyptians were 100% correct, the Afterlife does exist and can be visited with the aid of DMT.
