Fuck no
Start in numerical order

>don't start with their most ambitious and popular album that's considered to be their best by most Tool fans
Okay retard.

Bump this is national news

You need to start from the beginning, and it's also important to read the newsletters from that time period so you can follow along with the philosophical and occultic allusions and references. Honestly it should take at least a year or two to get through it all if you're doing it right.

Thats not how you spell AEnima

Is there a collection of the first newsletters bundled up?

undertow and aenima were their peak imo and also the most consumer friendly so try that

They used to be at the toolarmy site or you might check tdn down net. There should be a few hundred, so I'm not sure if they're all actually out there or not.

By the way, I'm just fucking around and you shouldn't waste your time on that nonsense just to zone out to some drum rolls.

Release order

start with Aenima or their first EP, Tool is a really good band,
and check out their live performance from 1992, that shit is legit 10/10 imo

You sure about that?

Most people here wont say it, but this album is absolutely worth listening to as well

It's completely front-loaded though. You can turn it off after The Pot and not miss anything worthwhile.

Start here, this is without a doubt the best you can get for true original Tool

But I really love right in two

Rosetta Stoned is based

I'd personally say you should start with Aenima. Then, if you like the heavier, grungier stuff more (Stinkfist, Hooker with a Penis, Aenema) go and listen to Undertow and Opiate. If you prefer the sparser, proggier stuff (H., Pushit, Third Eye) listen to Lateralus and 10,000 Days.

Aside from the percussion-centric interlude, Right in Two is the most buttrocky track they've ever done.

Rosetta Stoned is just Third Eye's bastard stepchild.

Because death grips make short meme rap songs and tool make long progressive/alternative rock/metal? How much more different can you get?
Nice bait though

>could never make a cohesive record to safe their lives
>best 90's band

Aenima and 10000 days are both really good I’d listen to them first both are heavy and dark, but there is something quite mystic about Lateralus which makes it there best.

Look at this dude

>Twin Infinitives (1990), one of the milestone recordings of the era, a sort of Trout Mask Replica for the grunge generation, toured an impassable jungle of clumsy and puerile noises. Derailed by pseudo-jazz and pseudo-avantgarde pretentions, its delirious pieces sounded like nuclear bacchanals via spastic jamming. Lacking any sense of order or purpose, the album was a colossal chaos of musical detours. The anarchic and illiterate art that had been foreshadowed and incubated throughout the 1980s by the works of punk-rock, the no wave, industrial music, and so forth, had reached the terminal point. The two devastated psyches had forged a hyper-psychedelic form of cubism.

societal living at its finest

Lol he's deliberately dressed up as an SJW. he always was an agitator.

bracing for disappointment

Are you insane? Rosetta Stone and Right in Two are fucking great

bracing for an alright album that will slowly grow on you over time and get a 6.5 from p4k

I'm calling a 3.39 on RYM.

Aenima is incredible, their sound was perfect there.
Really excited for new album, but I expect it to be similar to 10,000 Days, which will disappoint all the fanboys expecting god knows what.

Underrated post.

Maynard is anti trump and self proclaimed feminist so i dont know why he making fun of SJWs

The new songs dragged on for a bit, but they sounded good enough.

Anyone else seeing them tonight in Louisville?

>Rosetta Stoned
>Intenstion
>Right In Two
If anything the worst songs on the album are Jambi and The Pot.
