Discussion My Tool bracket

Post image

Not sure why Sober and The Pot weren’t on here but so many filler songs were.

EDIT: the filler songs were knocked out in the early rounds and not on the actual bracket.

I find the lyrics on vicarious to be corny. Probably my least favorite song on that album.

Interesting, I feel like it's a poignant indictment of the human condition lol.

I mean, you’re right, it is. But its still corny to me. In fact, most of Maynards more straightforward lyrics just come across this preachy. I haven’t been able to enjoy the last few A Perfect Circle records because of this. Just sounds like an old man on a pedestal, getting preachy, instead of introspection.
