Hooked

Can't wait for the new album.

I saw them live in 2002. Definitely one of the best live performances I've seen in my seven to ten years of paying to see live music.

I hate tool. I have only heard a few of their songs and its not my style anyway but the reason I hate them is because everyone bums them

Do you hate Mozart, Bach, and every other popular musical genius for the same reason?

The new album sounds amazing. I kind of feel guilty for listening to it early but I will definately buy it. I guess it will be called 10,000days after all. Anything's still possible though, I suppose.


What does this mean? To "bum" something?

I just got the leak today, have listened to it a couple times. I think it needs more time to sink in with me at least. I'm definately more a fan of lateralus, this album so far seems a bit dark to me.

I dont know man, it's one thing to not like them, but they are accomplished musicians in their own right. Especially the drummer danny carey, who is a god damn virtuoso ...

Basically. Hate if you want to, but give props when due.

I don't like tool but that is a rediculous notion. Tool makes NIN look like a screaming little bitch with fruity loops.

That being said, Tool is highly overrated. Manufactured 'deep' lyrics, strange guitar tones, and a great drummer is all Tool needed to turn a huge amount of people into a cult-like fan base.
