If you are tired of trendy bands like Linkin Park, Disturbed, Creed or Staind then Tool is a band that you need to check out. I got into Tool because I was tired of all the trendy music that is so prevalent today. It still seems like so many bands are tying to emulate the Seattle sound or they are foolishly following the silly trend of Rap/Rock. Thankfully, there are bands like Tool that do not follow trends. Rather, they are innovators and true artists who are willing to push the creative threshold of music.
