There's a lot of hate for this band.
There is quite a bit of dislike for this band. Most of the people I talk to about Tool who are into the same music as me really only have a problem with the two most recent albums - 10,000 Days and Lateralus. It might be a coincidence, but I noticed that the ones whose favorite Tool album is Lateralus are also the ones that connect with most.

I'm not saying Carey doesn't deserve the praise he gets nor am I saying that his skills don't mesh well with the other band members. I'm referring to each member's level of acknowledgement in the band.
