@MrHahne440 How did you just compare Tool to Avenged Sevenfold? There is nothing similar about the two.

This is yet another thing I love about TOOL. With the exception of the trolls, the diversity of discussions that arise from their songs are amazing. All TOOL fans are truly remarkable for having a level of intelligence, in my opinion, greater than those who are not fans. I don't just say this because I am a fan, either, I mean it. You are all exceptional beings, in my opinion. Have a wonderful day.

Tool does exactly what we all wish we could do. Takes everything we hate or have issues with and puts it into intricate musical excellence! Then drops it off on our doorsteps and moves onto the next inspiration!

Perfect Excellence!!! Better than the lottery.

@Higgs666 Avenged Sevenfold is childsplay compared to Tool! WTF!

[TheTacticalGamer1]

@eraserheadSH Aye, but to venture off away from the current mainstream music, and find better music was my goal. Mainstream (past) or not.

@MrGabbo85 So are you saying that Sylvia Macey fucked them over?

[eraserheadSH]

@TheTacticalGamer1 well, your example of good metal bands is made of mainstream metal bands. at least they were mainstream in the early 2000's.

danny carey is a deity!

[MrDannycarey1986]

best band ever that is it i know it hurts but nothing is like Tool

[TheTacticalGamer1]

@ubernoob6 Slipknot? Really? Venture out away from the mainstream bands more... Here is an example of a good metal band: Mudvayne, Fear Factory, Killswitch Engage, SOiL, Five Finger Death Punch, Soulfly, ect. I know that some maybe mainstream, however, I like to provide better bands (in my opinion) than such as disturbed, slipknot, avenge sevenfold, ect.

@mindopnr Thanks man. I have loved tool all my life and the depth, passion,and meaning of their songs. You have a wonderful day too!!

@MrGabbo85 Thats what I thought it was when I listened to the album. I just know this song expresses frustration and whenever I feel like shit has got the best of me I put in this song to remind me things will get better and could be worse.
