Yes! Not everyone may like Tool, but at least they're something. Nickelback is shallow and lacks any depth whatsoever.

Look, I know some people don't like Tool, but comparing them to Nickelback is just cruel. No band deserves that.

This thread is hilarious.

Awta

I prefer the sound of Tool much more

:) i didnt think this was seriuos. DO i really have to choose??

i guess tool by default seeing as nickeback is just soo horrible

lol @ djchameleon, Rainard Jalen, RezZ, Sin Rin, and YSHKMWYHTC.

??

i cant even believe there is a thread on this.

Tool.

nickelback is the epitomy of lammmmeeeeeee

Voted for Nickelback. :p:

^ are you serious or is this a joke?

djchameleon, Rainard Jalen, RezZ, Sin Rin, and YSHKMWYHTC voted for Nickelback, I meant.

But surely that was the joke right? I hate Tool and even I voted for them.

I think we all know who the winner is. I think comparing Tool to Nickelback is an insult. Tool are light-years ahead of the **** Nickelback are churning out :nono:

nickelback is a tool slave. all im sayin.

Seriously... The sad thing is, I think he was serious when writing this...

they both blow

I think the one person serious in voting for Nickelback was djchameleon.

So yeah, Tool may be a cut above Nickelback...but it's an awfully small cut.

Tool win merely on merit of having:

- a better drummer
- at least some evidence pointing towards an attempt to do something inventive
- the general quality of "not being quite as bad as Nickelback".

Slightly inventive? Are you fuking kidding me? C'mon man.... They're a hell of a lot more inventive than most other musicians. Pretentious yes, but uninventive? Not very often.

You misspelled "everything".

^ you mispelled mispelled

and i love tool only of there mysteriousness. if you've seen them live you know what im talking about.

misspelled* but at least you're aware it's wrong.

my bad. i swear it was spelled differently. i must be high.

Pffft. Nickleback is nothing at all compared to Tool. Rockstar made me lose all respect I had for Nickleback. Tool has better muscicians, a better singer, better lyrics, better composition, better everything.

i wonder if Tool and Nickelback go on tour together will they lose fans or will they get more?

we all know that will never happen. but im just wondering.

^that would be the worst tour imaginable:)

tool would probably stop touring due to losing so many fans from touring with nickelback. that would suck!

^that would go to show how fickle their fans are and easy they are to abandon their so called favorite band

^yeah, people would be like WTF what have i been missing, why have i been listening to this ****ty stuff (nickelback)

i should be listen to these guys, they rock (tool)[<33]

no, if they were truely faithful fans they would "suffer" through a couple of ****ty nickelback songs so they could enjoy their awesome holier than thou Tool

true. and they would have wished they'd listen to tool earlier so that they didnt have the bad taste of nickelback swarming in there minds.

People here don't quit hating on Nickelback...jese

Not saying i love them, or defending them, but wow

OK, you instructed me not to quit hating on them, so Nickelback sucks, their singer sucks, their guitarist sucks, their bassist sucks, their drummer sucks, everyone who's ever known them sucks, anyone who's ever attended one of their shows sucks, or who's bobbed their head to their music sucks. Anyone who's ever even ran into them, in a random place, like the airport say, sucks. Oh yeah, and everything that they touch sucks, and all their pets suck, I think that just about does it.

Wait, I just thought of some more stuff. Everything they do sucks, everything they say sucks. Every note they play sucks, even if it's the first note the guitarist plays when he's thinking of a song for their new album.

What the fuck is this. Tool vs. Nickelback? Did the paint chips taste good? If you are gonna compare 2 bands, compare 2 that have something in common.

You'll find they have more in common than you first might have realized.

They're both marketing gimmicks? You know the child athlete of the year's favorite bands is Nickelback.

Moral is, sports and music don't mix.

Werd.

How is Tool a marketing gimmick?

Oh come on, lyrics about metaphysics and evolution, and playing in weird time signatures. Isn't it obvious. That's the status quo of radio play.
