@kraastopher I only hear so much of Mike in either of them; actually I think Serj tends to be a lot more aggressive than Mike. Of course that guy from The Butthole Surfers was doing it all first.
@Scuddi I forgot to add. The album cover is a modification of the painting Watson and the Shark for anyone who was curious. John Singleton Copley. It's actually based on a real event supposedly. He used it more metaphorically though. Go see one of them (there are multiple copies) at the MFA in Boston. It's impressive in person.
@faen5863 Tool is ok. They're just kind of seen as very mainstream when it comes to everything within the genre. They still wrote some good songs.
Kind of like if you like Tool there is stuff more extreme to listen to. Stuff Tool only touches on. People who hate on them are just rejecting their mainstream qualities. I don't listen to them anymore but I did and they led me to things I like more.
Ignore people who hate just to hate, they're shallow and bitter.

@odinsprogeny So you're saying he does a better job of ripping off of Mike Patton than Serj? I agree.
