Title: Yawn.....
Product review: This is your typical Tool album. Tool is quite possibly the most overhyped/overrated band since Nirvana. The have a good vocalist, and write excellent lyrics but the music overall...well it just fails. They've been around for over a decade and haven't really altered their supposed "genre-redefining" sound. It's all the same, the quiet to harsh vocal stylings, the percussive guitar/bass playing, the only thing that changed is the drumming which sometimes can get pretty interesting. Tool's typical flaws are here as well. The redudant, often mundane guitar playing, the samey-sounding songs, the 2 or 3 weak tracks that really have no purpose...Tool too often borders the line between mood setting music and boring filler BS. If you want a band that reaches the deep, mind-blowing experience Tool tries to do, try Neurosis.
