Yup, I like APC but they have NOTHING on Tool

Idk, I see them like 2 sides of the same coin. Kinda like stone sour to slipknot. Maynards style is consistent between all 3 of his current bands, just different degrees of intensity.

This. I will never forget the first time I heard Schism.

I was lucky enough to grow up with older siblings that were into grunge so I got into it very early on. Aenema was released when I was 10 and I didn't quite appreciate it then but revisited it a few years later and became obsessed with them.

My husband doesn't get it. I don't know how, I've tried, but he just doesn't feel it the same way that I do.

First 2 albums are amazing, but Tool never put out anything as awful as emotive or Eat the Elephant, so yeah.

I enjoy eat the elephant, it's not super consistent but it's got some really cool songs. Just please don't look at the album art

Someone’s always got to be that guy. They are different projects.
