I think Ænema is a good song to nominate, because the intro is really catchy. Its a good song lyrically and musically. I think Lateralus is good too. Pus.hit and H. show Tool's more emotional side. But those are my favorite four.

Obviously the best Tool song is . . .
 

Parabola.

[QUOTE=bre]Parabola.[/QUOTE]


Third Eye for me.

[QUOTE=TheMachineRagesOn]what about Lateralus? (the song )[/QUOTE]
Best. Song. Ever.


From the intro to a little past seven minutes, it's already a pretty **** sweet song, but once the bass starts that distorted slide and Maynard's singing gets that rythmic confidence I feel like I'm in heaven. The whole song's a journey, much like the other material on the album.

I have and have (not very thoroughly) heard the new APC CD, eMOTIVe. Really, in my opinion, it isn't as fantastic as any of their previous work. I did want to see more of actual APC songs, but I guess I can settle for this. If you're a fan of the slower side of APC, then knock yourself out.

^there is a thread on it...Most people agree with you. Though a couple songs grow on you, Gimme gimm gimme and when the levee breaks to name a couple...

if it comes down to one song.....its gotta be aenema
no matter if ur a tool fan or not, u like that song

i remember my astronomy teacher askin me one time during senior year...
"whats that tool song, where the singer's saying 'learn to swim'?"
i put the song on and gave him my headphones, and a grin quickly spread across his face...

sh1t like that always makes u feel good...spreading the good word

so my vote would be fore aenema

I also think 4 Degrees, is one of Tool's best songs. It shows their awesome lyrics, Adam's kick as.s riffs + a solo, and Mayanrd's kick as.s singing.

My vote would go to either Lateralus, Third Eye, or Jimmy.

Yeah, AEnema, Lateralus, The Grudge are my favorites as of right now...but it constantly changes

Hey you know whats cool? 3 of the many movies coming out soon have tool names... theres the most popular "The Grudge", thers another movie, i think its kinda horror-like, called "Undertow", and theres this comedy called "Eulogy".. pretty flippin crazy

Aenima and Parabol/Parabola are my two favorites. I really like Cesaro Summability too but it's not really a song.

Yeah I noticed that a few weeks ago. Pretty wild :thumb:

The more I think, Aenema is best. Other options are Schism and No Quarter.

I was just listening to Freedom of Choice. A Devo fan i was quite looking foward to its release, after listening im dissapointed but in the anyways, during the "In Ancient Rome there was a poem" what has Maynard changed the lyrics to?

anyone ever play the game "The Suffering" ?

if u look hard enough...you'll find a ton of tool references....

for instance: one of the prison cells has 'Ticks and Leeches' scrawled on the wall with spray paint. theres another part where a guy is talking on the radio, and you hear him saying "suck me dry.."

good to know theres some tool fans makin video games

anyone good at tabbing?

someone should tab Imageine by APC for bass and guitar

although it sounds mostly bass

but yeah, good song, would be fun to play along with the music

There's like one guitar part in the whole song, it's not hard to figure out the song yourself :\

[QUOTE=the_Leperakorn]what has Maynard changed the lyrics to?[/QUOTE]

I don't know if this was an actual question, but the lyrics to Jerk-Off changed a while back, removing the references to guns and shooting, and stuff, and inserting "Fu[color=white]c[/color]k you in your fu[color=white]c[/color]king a[color=white]s[/color]s" instead.

Also, Prison Sex got another verse-thing added to it at some point in time. I don't remember what it says though, it's on Toolshed though.

AJIG, where is my tool related suprise!!! My GTA isn't coming till monday and now you wont give me my suprise..

Worst. Day. Ever.

And where might you have stumbled across that?

[QUOTE=omgwtfboogie]And where might you have stumbled across that?[/QUOTE]

I just typed in "A Perfect Circle" in the search box in Limewire, and one of the results was them performing Eulogy live. I can send it to u.

So when do we need to come up with a favourite Tool song by? Or if if has been decided what are we voting for?

where the hell is the surprise?

I'm going out on a limb, but it could have been mislabled... when it was really Tool performing it live.... kay....

[QUOTE=Kage]where the hell is the surprise?[/QUOTE]

Featured Artist #3 - Tool

[QUOTE=Expresso]I'm going out on a limb, but it could have been mislabled... when it was really Tool performing it live.... kay....[/QUOTE]

Ya I thought the same, but I'm pretty sure its A Perfect Circle.

Awesome work in the FA

I'm even more ready for a new album now.

Also might I add that I do now consider Cesaro Summability to be my favorite filler track of all time. If I ever get a chance to release an album with a band that will let me differ from the norm, I will record a baby screaming.

[QUOTE=G_Mac07]Featured Artist #3 - Tool[/QUOTE]

ah...sweet

[QUOTE=Expresso]I'm going out on a limb, but it could have been mislabled... when it was really Tool performing it live.... kay....[/QUOTE]

yea, 99.9% chance of that

[QUOTE=bre]My least favorite is probably Sober, not because I dislike it, but because it's so different from other Tool songs, it sounds more like a normal mainstream metal song. It doesn't show their originality, my favorites are probably Track 8 on Lateralus, Lateralus, Parabola, The Grudge, Triad, and even though it's not completely Tool, since I love the Deftones, when I bought The White Pony, and I saw a collaboration of Maynard James Keenan and Chino Mareno, two of the greatest male vocalists of the new generation, I fell in love with Passenger. :thumb:[/QUOTE]

YOur least favorite is sober? shame on you!

I love the deftones too!
maybe you can come check out my chrome buckles.... and adjust the mirrors. we could pacify the curiosity of the nights air...whatta ya say?

I say 'roll the window down'


hehehe passenger is quality

HUH?!?

Explain further, it is them and everything yes?

Could you send me it at some point?

i just read the featured artist thing about tool and now i've decided to download some of their songs. i like their sound, i might buy one or two of their albums to get the full effect.

[QUOTE=Adam Jones is GOD]HUH?!?

I was searching A Perfect Circle and I found them playing Eulogy ive, it was labeled: Eulogy by A Perfect Circle (Live Tool Cover). Ill send it to you through gmail. Also I don't think its Tool because it doesnt exactly like Adam's guitar.

Is TOOL a good band live? I've never seen them on tour so i'd like to know if their shows are kick *** or they mess everything up.

A Perfect Circle didnt do a cover of Eulogy that Tool i got that too but it isnt APC its just Tool live.
