Tool's a love/hate thing around where I live. So what do you guys think of them?

I, personally, love their musical style. You could definitely argue that it's repetitive, because every song's in Drop D and follows pretty similar song structures, but they deliver real well even for their redundancy. Lateralus is just a work of art.

    I'm a big fan. There one of the few unique bands to come out in recent times. There kind of an acquired taste for some people.

    - big TOOL fan signing in. Although I've always known about the band, until I found myself chasing Alex Grey art to anything psychedelic I never had bothered to listen to them and I'm sort of glad it played out like that.

    I like both Tool and APC. I think Manyard has a lot of talent and agree that Lateralus was brilliant! I'm going to be a little sad when they finish their last tours. Parabola is mathematically perfect and uses vibrations which supposedly help to open your chakras. The video has several references to chakra and the kundalini and whatnot.
