bloaf38: Tool ranked | Sputnikmusic

Brabiz 01.01.21	2 will always be my 1. But i can’t argue with this. Band is just really consistent
Brabiz 01.01.21	Aside from that, this is my ranking lol
TheAntichrist 01.01.21	lackeralus
Brabiz 01.01.21	I’m def not a fan of Lateralus. Everytime i listen to it i get bored.
bloaf38 01.01.21	Agreed Brabiz. I think people are taken by their musicianship and overlook that the songs on this album just aren't that good. At least that's my take on it:/
Egarran 01.01.21	best american band in history
TheAntichrist 01.01.21	no
Shemson 01.01.21	Aenima is definitely my number one too, 10k days definitely 2nd. Not too bothered about the others to be honest, I only ever go back to those two.
evilford 01.01.21	Opiate is not bad my dude but yea 1 is 1
iambandersnatch 01.01.21	Undertow is too low and it is true that you commenters are too harsh on Lateralus. Lateralus has some bangers, grudge/parabola/schism/patient are all great, and a lot of people like ticks & leeches as well although I'm less high on that one. Reflection is super underrated, grows on you a lot. I think aenima vs lateralus is a quality vs quantity thing, the couple best songs on aenima are hard to top but you have more good songs on lateralus. Take away all the nonsense filler/interlude songs on aenima and there's like 6-7 songs worth listening to on there. Great album but less of it, I'm cool w it being #1 on a list but I don't think it's so obviously better than Lateralus, I guess Sputnik as a whole would agree since Lateralus is rated .1 higher
Egarran 01.02.21	top 3 american band in history
HooperD87 01.02.21	1 is 1 5 is 2 2 is 3 4 is 4 3 is 5 6 is 6
DDDeftoneDDD 01.02.21	"I can't change all your diapers!!! This album exhausts me." hum...guess who needs a diaper change after all...
HooperD87 01.02.21	Undertow and 10,000 days interchangeable depending on my mood actually
bloaf38 01.02.21	@DDDeftoneDDD I'm going to eat some spicy Indian food and then you're welcome to change mine
DDDeftoneDDD 01.02.21	OK, just tell me when you are full of shit and I'll do it. It's no big deal XD Cheers for loving Tool.
bloaf38 01.02.21	hahaha good one!!!
CaliggyJack 01.02.21	Aenima is good but 10,000 days runs circles around it Fear is their best album tbqh
SlothcoreSam 01.02.21	Aenima Opiate Lateralus Undertow Fear inoculum 100000000 days
Sharenge 01.03.21	throw that Bob Marley wannabe motherfucker out of here!!
JDubb 01.03.21	I concur with Egarran. Tool essentially spawned their own genre of Alternative Metal, at which I worship at the alter of. All of these albums are individually distinct and superb - no ranking needed.
Sharenge 01.03.21	*altar
Sharenge 01.03.21	I'm just pissed he said Opiate is "pretty bad"
Egarran 01.03.21	Damn straight JDubb. It's hard to overstate Aenima's influence. And not only on music. Many people resonated with the spirituality of it all. And many people were repulsed by it. That's why Tool discussions are so amusing.
SymbolicInTime 01.03.21	How in the world do you get bored by Lateralus but not FI? Thats bizarre lol
evilford 01.04.21	Aenima Lateralus Undertow Opiate 10,000 days Fear inoculum
Sinternet 01.04.21	undertow is ok rest sucks booty
Ryus 01.04.21	aenima is the worst one for me probably. havent heard fear inoculum tho lateralus > 10,000 days > undertow > aenima
Dedes 01.04.21	Aenima literally reams ass friend Listen to the riffs on Hooker With a Penis and tell me it doesn't make your third eye wanna mosh
Emim 01.04.21	Hammer would probably be my #1 pick, but it's hard to beat a good pair of vise grips.
DavidYowi 01.04.21	Aenima Undertow Lateralus 10,000 Days/Fear Inoculum Opiate Keep in mind nothing here is below a 4. I love how this site is 1/2 Tool Stans and 1/2 people who love to troll Tool Stans.
Egarran 01.04.21	I like turtles
Boognish79 06.10.21	1,2,5,4,3
Jacquismo 06.10.21	5,4,1,6,2,3 Undertow is way underrated. There's this dark, brooding atmosphere to it (especially in the back end) that feels like there's a little bit of a Melvins influence buried in there somewhere. Similarly, Opiate may not have the level of musicianship of their other albums, but it's raw and there's an energy to it that you don't really get from the longer tracks of the later albums. 10,000 Days was a huge disappointment. There are a few great tracks there surrounded by filler worse than the bloat added to Aenima. That, combined with Maynard getting further up his own ass and the time it took to release a new album, pretty much killed my interest in the band. By the time Fear Innoculum came around, I was just bored and feeling like I've heard all of this before.
