Now listen, I like this band, and this album, but I'm really getting tired of hearing people say that this band is God.  I enjoy it, make no mistake, but I'm afraid I'm just not hearing the Godliness.  "The Mozart of Metal"?  Come on!  How much Mozart have you actually listened to?  The drummer and bassist are both very talented (though neither of them are anywhere near the best), but Adam Jones is an atrocious guitarist.  He rarely writes any interesting riffs, and the solos aren't much better than that of Godsmack.  I really think he's holding them back.  They need to replace him with someone like James Murphy or Andy LaRoque, then you'd really have something.  Maynard has a cool voice, but there are FAR better vocalists.  The "intelligent lyrics" are mostly just drug-induced ramblings and Bill Hicks bits.  I'm reminded of what that guy in "Almost Famous" said about Jim Morrison, "a drunken buffoon disguised as a poet".  Compared to the mighty Dream Theater, Tool is pretty much nothing.  They are far superior musicians, and write lyrics that actually ARE intelligent and poetic.  You need only to listen to their masterpiece "Scenes from a Memory" to know what I'm talking about.  Tool is not a bad band, in fact they're far from it, but God they are not.
