TOOL is probably the heaviest band I listen to. I admit I am a new fan (I've only listened to them for a few months) and I don't yet own OPIATE. One thing I do know is that on the radio, my favorite song right now is "Schism" from Lateralus. This one's kinda in the mood of hate, wanting God to "flush it down". Then there's some songs I thought were real funny like "Hooker With A Pen_s. You just gotta listen to judge. The intermission, well it's an intermission. You should know the greatness of "H.", one of the less angry songs, but still angry. It's actually melodic, too.
