I saw not one bit of evidence in those songs that they had delved into new musical territories, nor anything that suggested they were capable of doing so. And if further listening is really required to allow me the right to make that judgement, then I'll happily waive my right and do something more enjoyable with my ignorance.
One of my friends told me on saturday that her mother, who is a psychologist by profession, had said that one of the type of mental illness is exemplified by:
"Somebody who does the same thing again and again, and expects to get a different result."
Ergo, if I were to listen to another Tool song, having already heard 7 which I did not like then I would be doing so expecting to dislike it. For me to expect otherwise would essentially make me mentally ill. For me to listen to a song expecting that I would not like it would make me an either and idiot or a glutton for punishment. As I am neither an idiot nor a glutton for punishment nor mentally ill, I will not choose to listen to another Tool song by choice.
