tool sucks now. Maynard is old and fat. Anything written after 1996 is subpar in my opinion. They ONCE were great band.

They ARE great I have no clue where you could get the idea there not.:wall: The entire 10,000 Days album is amazing, just like every other one they have made. bongsmilie

I totally agree. Tool is still amazing. I love Rosetta Stoned and the fact that its about dmt. And how they incorporate the golden ratio into lateralus. They're just awesome.

Because I've seen them 6 times live from 1994 until last summer. There is a huge difference. I think some of the difference is me, but they lack the energy, and maynard hides in the shadows now. They peaked in 1996-97 IMO

I agree the atmosphere was different back then but even in 06 they had crazy energy maynard chillin in the back does kinda piss me off but i think its to put more on the insane lazor/light show and visuals that are everywhere.

Definitely agree on this.

Used to be obsessed with tool

Now it seems kind of boring and the same.

But New generations are getting in at different times so the perspective is off.

They did pry a crowbar in my head and help me think for myself.(dumb metalhead)

So for that there on legendary status with me.

Love Tool I have seen them in concert a lot of times.The first time was in 92 in Cleveland.They were touring the undertow album.The flaming lips and a band called failure opened for them.Members of failure later were in a perfect circle.I became friends with the lips and use to get x mas cards and silk screen posters from the lead singer.

People get older and evolve that is hard for some fans to understand.Maynard has his own wine money and shit now so the rage would be fake.Maynard is not the type to be a attention seeking front man.Fat?ha ha he is a black belt in jujitsu and could tap us all out!Well not me lol

I think your excitement for the band Tool peaked at 96 97.Music can mean a lot to you depending on what is going on in your own life that has nothing to do with tool.I know myself back in the day when I was going to concerts all the time hanging out with Marilyn Manson and getting back stage every where and being put on the V.I.P list it was a blast.Now I have to work a lot and I have lost touch with all the rock stars.The new albums that come out now from the bands I use to hang with don't mean that much to me,it doesn't mean they suck it just means we are in different places now and that moment in time when everything was exciting is gone.
