They're all similar enough they can be kinda interchangable to be honest.
Dont really mean that in a negative way though.

They're not exactly simple. There are a lot of shifting time sigs and keys, so from a music theory standpoint it can be kinda interesting, while still somehow managing to keep things sounding "pop" at times. It's easy to have arpeggios and mountains of flourishes that SOUND difficult, it's another animal to pass off unconventional structure as standard songwriting.
I'm not a huge Tool fan, I just think they're good at what they do but the PITA is how many people hold them up like the pinnacle of creative/progressive heavy music.![]()
Using Spiral Architect as a standard by which other bands are measured for their technical abilities is kind of ridiculous tbh.
Maybe to an average listener/musician they might seem complex but when I think of technical I think about bands like Spiral Architect. Faster, more complex, crazy time signature changes.....
Tool is just full of fail
It seems its just as popular to hate on the band to fanboy them.
Dude that's like saying the fastest guy in the NFL combine is a slow little bitch because Usain Bolt would blast past him. Obviously there's always a band that'll be faster with more complexity.
Also for the record Spiral is just wanky bullshit. It's ALL technicality without giving a fuck about writing songs that have any cohesion to them. Might as well use Behold... the Arctopus if all you care about is how many different scale types the musicians know.![]()

Hey, obnoxious faggot.
Well that's your opinion man, I doubt anyone here gives fuck about your shitty opinion.
Instead of insulting the fans/audience of the band why don't you give a reason to hate them that actually makes sense?
You can call them what you want but I would still listen to either of those bands all day before listenning to Stool. uups i mean tool
Hey Effigy. Remember how I said sometimes older guys will dismiss the shit younger dudes say? This is a fine example. This post is the kind of thing I expect a 12 year old to write, all proud of himself for thinking of "stool".
