Tool is my favorite band. I've seen them in concert three times, most recently just a few weeks ago. For me, their songs fall into two opposing categories: songs about how we're all connected and songs telling someone to fuck off. I like to connected songs, but I have to admit that I probably like angry Tool a little more. Perhaps it helps me deal with my own anger. For me, no one does angry better than Maynard and crew. Songs like Swamp Song, Hooker with a Penis, The Pot, and Ticks & Leeches say exactly what I'd like to say to all the people who think I should be over my daughter's death by now. Enjoyed your article and I'm glad you found Tool!
