dmb and oar.......I like music that upbeat, happy, and make sense. I do listen to pink floyd but I have grown to not respect bands who's lyrics obsess over drugs and how great they are because in reality they aren't so great and they don't make you any more enlightened than a sober person. IMO And tool obviously is obsessed with hallucinogens

granted some very great songs have been written about drugs......I can respect a song about drugs but not a band who's entire image is that of drugs

so were most other innovative rock bands

look at the 60s...look at metal music

drugs have impacted music....even during classical times //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Im not saying that Tool is obsessed with these drugs, but they do make good music. And Im not a druggie //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

wrong.... TOOL IS TOTALLY ANTI-DRUG!!!!

heres some lyrics... fvck your drugs, your tattoos, you gun toting hip gangster wannabe...

also, for you to not believe in some form of a higher power shows how limited your thinking process is. yes, religion sux but you shouldn't use that as an excuse to not believe that you were created. our bodies and this universe are too complex and advanced to not be created. this wasn't just an accident. everything serves a purpose... everything!!!!

Jones has experimented with various hallucinogens such as Ketamine and DMT. Jones talked about his use in 1997 RAGE magazine:

RAGE: Where does a man get mushrooms these days? Jones: [chuckles] Where does a man get mushrooms? RAGE: Or a woman. Jones: I'm talking beyond mushrooms, man. Have you ever done DMT? RAGE: No. Jones: Have you ever done ketamin? RAGE: No. I have to come there. Jones: Come check it out, man. ****ing changed my life. Changed my whole thinking.

i'll tell you how anti-drug Tool is. during the set at lalapaloza maynard told this hippie to put out his joint. the dude tried to act like maynard wasn't talking to him. maynard jumped into the crowd to go after buddy. wish like hell i had my camera. it was fvcken sick!!!!

See thats why you don't like Tool, you are a fan of shitty music, if you were a fan of good music you would like Tool.
