Yes, and Joey from Full House is their new drummer too.
He got tired of the whole 'Kokomo' thing with the Beachboys revival, and Tool snapped him up straight away.
You should hear their cover of 'Kokomo' - it moves me man.

Ollie.
They are great man - seriously.
Epic rock.
You'd like it if you gave it a shot. 8)
I'll lend you 'Lateralis' next time I see you - will keep a burnt copy in my bag for ya. 8)

I admit, I first didn't get into Tool when they first hit the big-time because of the whole dark/brooding, over animated film clip thing going on in the 90's - and I was too into my rare indy rock to give a shit.
Have learnt to appreciate them much more over time.
Have recently seen footage of them live, plus their new album - and for someone who not easily impressed at all - I was blown away.

Seriously man. Try it, you'll like it. :wink:

i dont want to sound like a rich kid but i think aenema is better constructed than lateralus, thos the latest album is just as good
i found lateralus a bit chug-a-lug tbh. might just be me though.

live they are superb and youd be hard pressed to find a band that would take so much attention to detail in their live sound production

that was me...... and I still stand by it.

check this from the editor of faster louder-

A bunch of high profile artists such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Tool announced Australian tours this week. The surrounding hot air regarding these announcements had me thinking for one moment that I had perhaps grown faint and then woken in a different reality. An alternate world, back in the halcyon days of the nineties when greed was still good and these aforementioned bands were at their peak.

Not that I don't dig the Chili Peppers or Tool for that matter - but c'mon - move over guys...give the youngsters a go... Why are the bands that we scream the loudest for the ones that had their day almost a decade ago?

We all jump up and down and clamour for tickets to the Stones, U2, Madonna and Pearl Jam... Is it really 'cause we think they'll still serve up the best concert we've ever seen? Or is it simply that we're trying to capture some moment of days gone by - wishing, like them, to be trapped in a memory, forever young?
