I'm sure they won't be performing too far from where you are DM.

Definitely one of my favourites too. I can't get closure on them. Like, some bands and albums I'll get over when I know the lyrics and can finger-drum the sound haha but Tool, I discover something new everytime I listen to an album. I guess that's why I like them so much. They don't bore me.

Has anyone heard much of Puscifer? I've only heard a couple of tracks and... um... I'm undecided I guess.

I listened to V for Vagina a couple of times when it came out, and I can't say I was impressed. Maybe I need to listen to it again, but I don't see what the hype is.

I'd have to disagree with that in that I feel he's kind of overrated. No doubt, he has a damn good voice and even more so, great lyrics, but he's is too often mistaken as the mastermind of Tool. There is no ONE mastermind of Tool - the blatant talent, I feel, comes collectively as a band. I am more partial to Adam Jones.

I see no love here for the rythm that makes both APC and Tool so easy to listen to over and over. Danny Carey for Tool and Tim Alexander/Josh Freese for APC.
In my opinion, those guys can be credited with not allowing the music to get stale or old over the years. A new beat for every song, something we don't see all that much anymore. As a drummer i respect it because I can listed to one of their songs a hundred times and still question what comes next.
A band that evolves constantly and still retains their fanbase!! How many people listened to APC initially just because it was an offshoot of tool?
