I think arguing about a band's merits is dumb. If you like it you like it, if you don't you don't. No amount of arguing is going to change someone's taste.
I enjoy listening to
Tool. I couldn't give a f
uck about the meaning behind their songs and how complex or simple the music is. Their album sales and position in the charts mean even less to me.
Also I should voice my opinion, as I'm sure many others have before me, that it makes little sense to have
Tool and
A Perfect Circle share a thread. What's next, we're gonna group
Faith No More and
Fantômas,
Pantera and
Down,
Nirvana and
Foo Fighters,
Queen and
Bad Company single threads?
