tvol: Bands That Supposedly Sound Like Tool That Don't Sound Like Tool

tvol 02.17.11	anyone know any other bands that actually sound like lateralus/10K days era tool?
Willie 02.17.11	Deadsoul Tribe - A Lullaby for the Devil
Emim 02.17.11	People were always comparing early Chevelle to Tool
PayneTiger777 02.17.11	I agree with you. Also, I hate it when people compare the lead singer of Chevelle to Maynard. The only band that actually does sound somewhat like Tool, well more like APC, is Cire. The lead vocalist is eerily similar to Maynard.
G3N3R1C 02.17.11	2 >>> Tool. Haven't heard 1 and 4. 5 is a great band in their own right. I've heard some of 3 and yeah, that vocalist really does seem like he's trying to do an MJK impression half of the time.
CrownOfMagnets 02.17.11	I was expecting to see 3 on here.
tvol 02.17.11	Chevelle sounds absolutely nothing like Tool. I don't get that comparison at all.
NeroCorleone80 02.17.11	Ya one of my friends calls Tool the "Metallic Rush"
Gmork89 02.17.11	Karnivool is better than tool.
iswimfast 02.17.11	Karnivool less talented? Ian Kenny could run circles around Maynard vocally. The only member of Tool that's clearly better is Danny Carey.
omnipanzer 02.17.11	I don't think they replicate their sound so much as refine and alter it.
FearThyEvil 02.18.11	I absolutely love Tool but also like every band on this list besides 5.
Vanwarp 02.18.11	Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance
kris. 02.18.11	karnivool is better than tool
omnipanzer 02.18.11	^ You are a Tool (as usual).
kris. 02.18.11	hardy har har you made a pun
UnnamedOcean 02.18.11	Tool is for kids who think they are cool.
omnipanzer 02.18.11	^ wrong
kris. 02.18.11	true when i was in junior high i loved the fuck out of tool then i grew up and realized that likign tool doesn't make you awesome it makes you a pretentious cunt yet somehow i still am one of those :( funny how life works out
AnotherBrick 02.18.11	Rishloo is the only band worthy of being on this list. this is a dumb list
UnnamedOcean 02.18.11	I really just had to say that because Karnivool is better. Tool is so fucking stereotypical and pretentious, as Kris said.
Defeater 02.18.11	3 sounds just like tool are you fucking thick
omnipanzer 02.18.11	"true when i was in junior high i loved the fuck out of tool then i grew up and realized that likign tool doesn't make you awesome it makes you a pretentious cunt yet somehow i still am one of those :( funny how life works out" that's not presumptuous or projecting at all AT ALL
kris. 02.18.11	u mad bro?
AnotherBrick 02.18.11	anybody who calls any form of music pretentious is a fucking idiot. /thread
Ire 02.18.11	tool rools
ev0ken 02.18.11	this is the first time i heard of Rishloo...just you tubed a few of their songs and they are pretty good. I also like all of these bands on this list also.
omnipanzer 02.18.11	"u mad bro?" Nope Don't get ire's ire up btw.
kris. 02.18.11	ire can suck a dick goddamn italimex jk luv u bro
acorncheese 02.18.11	Really, really liked Tool when I was like 16 lol. Lateralus will always be a special album to me, but I have no desire to listen to it or them anymore. That aside, it's a fucking fantastic album.
kris. 02.18.11	love you too anotherdick
omnipanzer 02.18.11	I luv you when you aren't bagging on Tool UK /kick dirt
UnnamedOcean 02.18.11	You should check out this one small time band called Fistful of Britney. They are complete Tool ripoffs.
acorncheese 02.18.11	I'll legitimately never "get" comparisons to Tool. I never hear it. Back when I got into Oceansize, right before Tool's 10,000 Days came out, I'd often hear comparisons between 'Size and Tool. I still see the comparisons made these days, but will never be able to hear it.
UnnamedOcean 02.18.11	Yeah I really don't see it. They just go "oh this band is dark and proggy, they sound just like Tool."
acorncheese 02.18.11	Seems to be that way. Tool's sound is pretty distinct in my book. I know many would disagree. Might have to pop on Lateralus now lol.
omnipanzer 02.18.11	Do it Acorn do it. It's not like you'll regret it...
AnotherBrick 02.18.11	I LUL YOU TOO CHRIS
Rev 02.18.11	Am I the only person who feels that dredg is the alternative rock version of Tool?
Sowing 02.18.11	lol porcupine tree sounds nothing like tool who would even say that
AnotherBrick 02.18.11	lol the dipshit who made this list would, sowing
Jethro42 02.18.11	Only a few of Porcupine Tree songs reminds some Tool, like this one; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8PmDjqU6uo
Defeater 02.18.11	elliott smith sounds like tool dude could write some awesome polyrhythms
Emim 02.18.11	As for the Chevelle thing, Pete phrases some of his lyrics in a similar manner and people were all STOP RIPPING OFF MAYNARD RESPECT THE CLASSICS
tvol 02.18.11	@SowingSeason go look at porcupines sputnik page. "Similar Bands: Opeth, Tool, Blackfield, Pink Floyd, Radiohead" apparently a lot of people would say that.
Curse. 02.18.11	Vocalist from Rishloo sounds EXACTLY like Maynard
omnipanzer 02.18.11	Nah, he's lesser imo
Psilocyanide 02.18.11	Rishloo's really the only one of these that sound like Tool.
Benwx 02.19.11	rishloo definitely sounds the most like tool on this list. but their guitarist >> adam jones. begins here by the butterfly effect sounds a bit toolish in parts - but the band i find most like tool is Prisma (though tool is much better). oh and karnivool > tool
cb123 02.19.11	Prisma and Boil are pretty toolish to and karnivool, rishloo >>> tool
Brabiz 04.18.15	4 is better than tool. But there are some moments that sound a bit too similar to be coincidence. The third track is a prime example
soabovesobelow1 11.01.15	Check out a band called Amoria....Great Band with a very similar style as tool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyyqvMp5F3I
altertide0 11.01.15	i've heard of this band King Crimson that sounds like Tool. But it may be too proggy
adr 11.01.15	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7jY919-mAE
MyNameIsPencil 11.01.15	Isis is a better band than Tool anyway
