Tool Information

Tool Information Continued

Tool's overall sound has been described as "grinding, post-Jane's Addiction heavy metal" as well as "a primal sound as distinct as it is disturbing". In many cases, Tool are categorized as alternative metal, a broad label used to loosely categorize bands such as Jane's Addiction, Rage Against the Machine and Faith No More, among others. They are known for addressing philosophical and spiritual issues in their lyrics, such as evolution and Jungian psychology ("Forty-Six & 2"), organized religion ("Opiate") and transcendence ("Lateralus"). Tool are also known for songs that feature "complex rhythm changes, haunting vocals and an onslaught of changes in dynamics" which often result in a greater-than-average track length. Their music has been influenced by King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Rush and early Yes.

Tool immediately received recognition for their first commercial release, Opiate (1992). The six-song EP included some of the heaviest songs the band had written, among them the singles "Hush" and "Opiate" which quickly gained attention. Tool was quick to release their first full-length album, Undertow (1993), soon after Opiate. The album was eventually certified double platinum on May 14, 2001.

Their album Lateralus was released in 2001 and became a success the world over, reaching #1 on the Billboard Top 200 album charts on its debut week. Although no actual singles were released to support the album, but only radio singles and music videos, Tool received their second Grammy Award for the best metal performance of 2001 for the song "Schism".

Tool's new record, entitled 10,000 Days, was completed on January 29, 2006.

4.5 out of 5 stars


simply amazing

Mark from said...

"great fans, engaged and rocked out from beginning to end. Tool is an amazing live act and so tight. Chancellor and Carey kill me - they are so sick. I loved how they manage the 'intermission' instead of the traditional encore. Sound was amazing - bordering too loud, but hey, we are all getting old... don't miss this tour."

Bottom line: Mark would recommend this event to their best friend

"I've been waiting forever to see Tool and it was truly an amazing show. The band was solid and the stage setup and effects were fantastic. I would have given 5 stars but they didn't play my favorite song so I'm penalizing them hahaha!"
