      There are plenty of Tool fans here on OS. I am a big fan, and saw them when they played in Bossier City. Every member of Tool is insanely talented.

      Check out A Perfect Circle. They're Maynard's other band.

        Great list of songs to suggest.

        I know all about a perfect circle and I'm a big fan of them as well.

        If I had one gripe with tool/perfect circle.....its that they will kind of dog on christianity in their lyrics sometimes and I dont care for that. But I dont want to get into all that.

        They are one of my favorite bands of all time.

          The Pot

          Just a few of their many great songs.

          Right in two (kind of a slower song with amazing lyrics)
          Aenema
          the grudge
          the patient
          Lost keys (amazing intro to rossetta)
          Rossetta stoned
          Intension
          disposition (beautifull song/intro to reflection)
          reflection
          ticks and leaches
          Opiate

          and yes frrom top to bottom theres no band that compares. Their drummer is quite possibly the best in the world id take him over Neal Peart(sp?) any day, Maynard has the most amazingly powerfull voice, Adam Jones is sooo creative and Justin holds the most amazing bass lines, their so cohesive as a band.And the best part is they sound even better live and extend songs(good example and another song you should check out push it then check out push it live) . If you can get into them,next time they tour see them they are something special to see live.

            Tool's cover of Zeppelin's "No Quarter" is ****ing amazing. Though that's pretty much par for the course with them. If you're only going to pick up one album from them get Ænima. It's by far their best, imo.

                I think it's kinda insulting to try to compare them to other bands. They're unique.

                    Actually now when I think about it, there isn't one Tool song I don't like, and listen to on the often. I can't say that about too many bands.

                      Shine until the two become one

                      Right after the talk box solo ( in jambi), is hands down the most amazing and brilliant part in any song I have ever heard.

                      lol funny like buddy said I like every song, I can barely choose a fav album, ænima is great, but I find it hard to put it over 10,000 days let alone lateralus.
                      Opeth is another really amazing band if you can dig the death metal growl.

                        I disagree the Best Tool Song on so many levels is 10,000 days part 2. There is something magical about that song.

                          Yes I love that song as well, Justin is really good in that song, and the guitar solo (or whatever you wanna call it) is amazing. Man when i saw them live in Van they didnt play wings, then in kelowna they did but they stopped after part 1 because the crowd was being a bunch of ****ers, they were shining laser pointers in maynards eye. Too bad cause I would have loved to see that live.

                            If it was not for their fans, I might would like Tool. I have meet some Tool fans who are quite Tools themselves or was obsessed with the band.

                              One of my favorite bands but i much prefer their early stuff (Opiate\Undertow) when they were more straight forward. A lot of their new stuff is good but there just seems to much filler mixed in. There only real down point for me was Lateralus which I found boring. Oddly enough though I thought their best tour was in aupport of that Album. I have seen them around a dozen times and the Lateralus tour was my favorite becausae they seemed to just come out and play the songs. Too many times I have seen them play a song, Eff around for 10 minutes, play a stong, Eff around, etc... etc...


                              APC is another of my favorirtes. Thirteenth Steps is an amazing Album from start to finish.

                              Fans of APC need to check out Ashes Divide. It is the guitar players (head writer for APC) new band. Pretty good stuff, some really sounds like APC and then branches out with almost a Depeche Mode feel to it.

                                Seein APC in chicago about 9 years ago is still my favorite live show ever.
