I Love Tool Stories of Experiences

I flew from Western Australia to Sydney just to see my heroes perform tonight. What a display it was. To say it was indescribably beautiful would be an insult. The lights, the animation, the synch, the artists the music, the talent...

"I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
I will work to elevate you
just enough to bring you down...

I believe Tool is the next logical step in the progression of music. Their music is the only music I can listen to anymore, because nothing else compares. Once you go Tool, you can never go back. They are gods among men and their music...

I grew up in a religious household. I have no religion now, but I am a spiritual person. These lyrics express how I feel about my place in this universe. I think it may be my favorite song by Tool. The video follows.
"Parabola"
So...

I love to put headphones on and just let the music carry me away. They often use interesting time signatures. I can relate to their lyrics which are about evolving as a person. Maynard James Keenan is such an expressive vocalist. Here...

at my school no one listens to tool they all would rather be listening to lil waine or t pain or some shit why the fuck am i the only tool fan in westerville

I have seen Tool live in concert twice. They just blew me away. Greatest rock band now playing. I wish more people could hear them the way I do. Tool videos can be dark and ugly, but the music is beautiful and fractal. Long live Tool.

All I have to say is ORGASMIC!!!

I cannot believe it has been 20 years since the release of Opiate. I still listen to that EP alot. I love the message behind it. I cannot wait to see them this month!!!! It will be my 4th TOOL show. They are the only "arena" band I...

Can't wait for this 2012 tour! Seen them 3 times, and about to see them 3 more. Boston!

James Keenan Maynard is nothing short of genius. Every song put out by Tool is just as amazing and insightful as the last. Music has not had meaning like this since the days of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd and very few will ever be...

Love the music the artwork and the videos

earlier today while i was waiting in the parking lot to pick my roommate up from work i was listening to tool. the song was forty six & two. an older redneck looking guy came over to my car and asked me to toll y window down, so i did...

i love anything that makes me think. the music is just written so well, and maynards voice just makes it come alive. i dont know how else to describe it. i cant get into music if i dont feel anything from it. and with tool, i feel it.

This band rocks, and brings me back to my early days lol.

Which artist puts you in the right Tool Head-Space?

oh no! this must be a mistake at all. I H A T E  TOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!

Best drum solo I've ever seen live.

tool = heavy metal,the rest - pop...

The music is tight, unique, heavy yet melodic. The vocals are haunting. The lyrics are deep and introspective. All in all, this band is genius. They are definitely in my top 5. I'm listening to them right now, actually. lol
