TOOL

Ok, i came across TOOL sometime last year on a TV channel called 'scuzz'. Since then i have come across a whole new genre on music, even though TOOL is incredibly individual. The deepness and spirituality is almost mind blowing coupled with the hypnotic sounds that are used. I'm also in love with their CD packing and artwork, most of which is done by Adam Jones (i believe). The videos are just out of this world, with third eyes, lotuses, chakras, caduceuses and so many other links to stuff. This adds an extra dimension also, if the music wasn't enough for you. Maynard (lead singer) is also in a band called 'A perfect circle' which have some similarities to TOOL, maybe because of Maynard's heavily distinctive voice. As well as opening my eyes to 'a perfect circle' it has also introduced me to Billy Howerdel's group 'ashes divide', who have their own unique music style also. Billy works with a perfect circle, doing some instrumental pieces and back up vocals. And on top of all of this (even though they have nothing to do with TOOL) i have found 'karnivool'. So TOOL is truly awesome in many aspects. Including opening my eyes to the world of hypnotic music.
