It always amazed me how Tool was related by solme people in the media to the grunge style despite being som different. As everybody may know, Tool´s music is really climatic and it is trully based on two things: Adam Jones guitar arrangements and Maynard James Keenan´s excellent vocals. The main feeling here is oppression...and that is the same feeling that I have since listening their first album "Undertow". A great album of this band that had been in silence for a long time. Favorite tracks: "The Patient", "Parabola" and "Disposition". Contact: www.toolband.com
