No. It's pretty good, actually. Their fanbase and their personalities are just shit

That album in particular is actually a pretty great listen.

Even then, the band's retarded fanbase overrates it unbearably, which causes most everyone else to ridicule the album without giving it a chance, but I recommend listening to it and forming your own opinion.

Tool make some heavy awesome songs but just have a bad "le spiritual eastern philosophy" aesthetic

Takes me back. Saw Rage Against the Machine open with Tool following. Headlined by Primus and Alice in Chains. Fuuuuuck I'm getting old

Tool > Puscifer > APC

Four great albums, one solid rarities collection, one weak-ass EP and one atrocious demo. Still, I think THE TOOL are a decent band. Has to be said - the only thing worse than the obsessive Tool fanbase is the obsessive Tool hatebase.
>>
Tool are to pessimists as Radiohead are to optimists
>>
I changed my mind on it. It's different, and that is fine.

All of Tool's albums are wildly different anyway.

This is a career creating album. Why the fuck nobody talks about it?

Probably because it's shit.

It may not hold up now to some. But when that came out it was completely different and original. Pre Internet an no MTV play. Just word of mouth how bad ass it was. Even to a backwoods WV "hick".

Not their best but still a great album.
>>
>>60360883
No, it's great. Memelord James Conan may be a pretentious asshole with an obnoxious fanbase, but he still makes solid music.
>>
In my opinion it would be one of the great, great bands except that fucking singer

really fun prog/psych metal instrumentation though, lots of pleasant rhythmic elaborations and details.
>>
>>60364953
Okay.
It's still shit.

I feel like whether or not you find the album the best a not depends on what type of music you like, if you like progressive rock, laturalus will probably be your favorite album by them if not the only tool album you like, if you like alt metal you will probably prefer one of their other albums
>>
>>60360883
no ,,its good,, like the other tool albums
>>
>>60365311
I get what you're saying. I'm more of a fan of early 90s alt/prog metal, which I guess explains why I prefer Tool's earlier albums over their newer ones.
>>
>>60365212
hot, pics plz
>>
>>60365373
I seriously don't think anyone other than their modern edgy edgester "tool expanded my mind" fans like anything made after Laturalus though

>>
>>60365311
That's probably a fair point. I was really stuff like Deftones and early Incubus when I got into Tool. I like progressive rock as well, so naturally I enjoy Lateralus a lot too.
>>
>>60360883
I love tool, but the general fanbase is composed of mostly autists. That's probably why I'm a fan to be honesty.
>>
>>60361357
kek
>>
>>60364875
Probably because it sounds so different from the more progish stuff that they're known for.

Still great though.
>>
>>60361435
Undertow is my favorite but I still like Lateralus.

The only bad album is 10,000 Days.

They debuted a part of one of their new songs on Halloween this year.

First piece of new material in 9 years though, gets me pretty amped/nervous (noided)

Sounds good, I was really hoping that song would go somewhere though.

Not necessarily. They're pretty middle-of-the-road for me, I don't love or hate them.
>>
>>60361357
FUCK that's spicy

no its perfect
>just like the band

Lateralus is fucking amazing. Honestly their entire discography is worth checking out. Been listening to them a lot lately and Pushit has stuck out the most.
