Their fans also over-analyse their music, just like people over analyse the Beatles

Would you say that both artists are similarly worthy of analysis (including extramusical things such as influence)?

Yes of course but there is always that line where the over-zealous worship takes over and you start analyzing what you want to see in it

RIP your credibility for thinking that a band with significant impact is as worthy of analysis as a much newer artist whose influence is limited to the dying niche it finds itself in. Also equating worthiness of analysis with quality of analysis is some tsk tsk business my man.

Also check out all of my posts I made towards OH about separating an artist from its fan base, because it looks like you are the person it was meant for.

People who can't get behind Tool typically just can't get behind their obnoxious ass fan base instead of anything to do with their music.



I think they're a solid outfit. Not gods or particularly innovative though.

(Irrelevant to Sgt Pepper, but) Tool do have a unique sound/style, even if they took a lot of cues from King Crimson's poly-rhythms

That's the fastest I've ever seen someone listen to an 8 minute song.
