I got a 10,000 Days launch CD hand me down from my dad. One of the ones with the Lenses and the Images. It’s been an obsession ever since
Phase? Tool is a phenomenal band. Not a phase.
How about that Mandelbrot set?
Pay no attention to my username…
Oh shit, you’re like famous. I heard you once on a ratm song!
Tell me about your wine.
Sour grape juice good.
Nope, not the real Maynard, the real one wouldn’t miss an opportunity to talk about his wine.
phase??? I’ve been actively into Tool since the 90s
Back in the day, my stepdad worked overseas so we found ourselves at the airport quite often. Remember how they used to have those courtesy phones where you pick up, talk to an operator, and ask them to make an announcement in the airport to have someone pickup and connect you?
My brother and I would go to those phones and request that they page Reverend Maynard James Keenan. Then they’d announce over the intercom “Reverend Maynard James Keenan please pickup a white courtesy phone. Reverend Maynard James Keenan please pickup a white courtesy phone.” Then we’d lose our minds laughing. I don’t know why we thought it was so funny, but hopefully some other Tool fans at the time were walking through the airport and did a double take.
Look at that OGT
I love how there’s basically nothing but love for Tool in these comments. I’m a big fan of whatever Maynard James Keenan’s touching. I adore Puscifer and listen constantly (Grand Canyon is my current obsessive-replay song… once again), APC literally always fucks hard so it’s always an option, and Tool scratches an itch I can’t get anywhere else. Saw Tool live finally, too, just like last year.
Ditto, apart from A Perfect Circle. They had a few rubbish albums, particularly Emotive. Just seen Tool for the 8th time.
Somehow the pieces fit.
super advanced version
Does this “fit”? It does, if you will relax and enjoy the ride.:-)
God fucking dammit. I sat and stared at it for like a minute then randomly bust out laughing once it clicked.
What is this “phase”, as if anyone would grow out of this awesomeness? 😎
Ahhh a Supernatural meme template. You love to see it
I feel Dean has so many meme-worthy moments.
I always liked A Perfect Circle and so I listened to TOOL but didn’t really get into them until I brought up the lyrics that I could never really hear because all I had was Ænima and the mixing on that entire album kinda sucks; the vocals are damn near washed out.
Perfect Circles first album is pretty much a perfect record.
It’s even better live.
I got front row seats to that. Every single thing was perfect
I’m jealous of you both
Fully expected a handyman meme or two
I got into tool with Aenima and it didn’t leave my car cassette player for two months. Thankfully they were more into talking shit about Henry Rollins at the time.
yeah, shit ends up at the bottom.
What did I miss?
A lot of people believe(d) Eulogy is about Henry Rollins, though nobody knows and theories include L. Ron Hubbard, Jesus, Keenan himself, and Jesus.
I saw fractals on LSD listening to Tool.
So jealous. My closest experience is seeing Radiohead at bonnaroo candy flipping my brains out. I’ll never forget him tell his mom he loved her at some point during the show.

Context? Looking up “Tool” only shows definitions of the word tool lol
I got you: 46&2
Thank you!
Nurock band.
More like progressive metal if you want to put it in any music genre.
There is no such thing as nurock.
Numetal is bands like Korn and Limp Biskit, which are very very far away from what Tool does.
