Pros: Great message presented in an outstanding way. Cons: NONE
Summary: It is apperant the first time that you listen to TOOL that this isn't your everday run of the mill rock band. The way Danny Maynard Justin and Adam take what they feel in the deepest most parts of their souls and put it all into what I think is the most ... read more

Pros: Everything Cons: have to wait for the next album

My own review is somewhat of a personal tale of discovery ... read more

Pros: Great cd, disturbingly beautiful and dark. Cons: None.
Summary: Tool is dark, disturbing, and deeply melodic and one word to describe their music would be beautiful. Maynard has worked out his emotions and put them on tape and we can feel his depression, his happiness, his anger. You can feel him. The subject ... read more

Pros: The lyrics, the bass, the guitar..... Cons: Those strange tracks that weren't songs, the perforated folds of the insert
Summary: This was the first Tool album I ever bought. After I listened to this one, I went and bought their first two. I saw the video for "Track #1" on MTV, and instantly was addicted. The haunting music and Maynard James Keenan's voice captured me. ... read more

Pros: Great cd, not much else to say Cons: Has too many tracks that are like intermissions, no music just sounds.
Summary: On Tool's second full length album, they continue in the vein of Undertow, only this time the music is darker and the guitars are more distorted. People who are looking for the relatively clean and straight-forward music of Undertow might be ... read more

Pros: Everything Cons: Nothing
Summary: I love this cd. It is a great cd whether you like alternative or not. I'm usually into heavy metal like Pantera, but one day I got a little curios and decided to buy this cd, and I'm glad I took that chance. This appeals to any taste. They have ... read more

Pros: Very Good Lyrics(Mastermind) Cons: Nothing i can think of
Summary:
I ummmm.... Agree with this person!
The album definitely has a dark tone to it. The lyrics are intense in all places, downright shocking in a few. "Stinkfist" seems to say that humans are becoming desensitized to ... read more

Pros: Well written, cool cover art Cons: Not for the faint of heart
Summary: Tool is a dark band with dark music and dark lyrical imagery. Every song the write is well written and is not repetitive at all. My favorite of the Tool trio is Aenima. It is a nice long psychadelic trip into music that isn't for the faint of heart. ... read more

Pros: You'll be singing along Cons: People in other cars will think you're strange!
Summary: The truth about Maynard is that he is the frontman for possibly the best live band ever! If you haven't seen a live Tool show, please go. Just go and don't expect anything. Just sit and listen. If you are not convinced you have just witnessed the ... read more

Pros: Maynard James Keenan's voice and lyrics, Adam Jones' powerful guitar riffs Cons: The fact that Tool hasn't made another album since
Summary: One of the greatest hard rock albums of all time, easily ranking up there with Metallica's Black Album, Soundgarden's Superunknown, etc. After hearing the whole CD in a friend's car, I went straight to Tunes and bought it. I haven't regretted it or found ... read more

Pros: good musicianship, good subject matter which may be objectionable to some Cons: weird songs
Summary: This album is great, it may be one of the best of the 90's. There are at least 7 or 8 great songs. Eulogy and Aenema are epic songs. It is dark and broody and does have some very weird things but all in all a great album which should be in any metal ... read more

Pros: Tight, precise arrangements, incredible vocals, guitar, bass, drums Cons: Listen carefully, very carefully
