I agree, and who said a band sucked just because they don't have the best musicians? I surely didn't.
I like Tool, a lot. Adam Jones is an underrated guitarist, certainly not the best. Carey is great, but he's not the best prog drummer, that's just my opinion, though if we're talking technical skill wise, it's also a fact.

I probably wouldn't call PT any particular kind of prog, they mix many styles and metal is just one of them, they are in a bit of a metal phase right now but they're a constantly evolving band. Their early material is more space rock, their late 90s/early 00s stuff is more melodic prog.
