APC is much more mainstream than Tool...I like Tool a little more than APC though.

One thing that's always irritated me about many Tool fans, is how they are somehow automatically APC fans too simply because of their man-crushes on Maynard. Like, who gives a damn? Does it make you a better fan or something just because you follow each of the individual members in whatever extra-Tool activities they choose to indulge in?
I like both APC and Tool because they're good bands, not because of Maynard. I freakin hate Puscifer for instance... it bores the hell outa me.

they are both really good, but not quite my type of music

Fair enough.



I listened to Puscifer. I didn't think it was that good, though it seemed to accomplish more musically speaking than Tool or APC.

Name a band that came before Tool that sounds remotely like Tool. I mean, sure, maybe back in the Opiate days they could've been compared to a few of the "alternative metal" bands around during that period, but I personally have yet to hear anything else that sounds quite like Ænima or Lateralus. Particularly the latter.

they have their own distinct sound. i don't think having your own sound though necessarily involves having achieved much musically, especially when there's such a lack of variation within what they've managed to do with it.



saying that, i think i'm wrong slating tool quite to the extent that i do. Ænima and Lateralus are both, at the end of the day, really good albums.


APC on the other hand really are a total pile of sh1te.

Okay here's something else, all of my friends favor Lateralus over Aenima...I however am the opposite. Maybe there's something in Lateralus I'm not hearing.

Naaw, I prefer Aenima as well.. Third Eye is so freakin cool

I'm in the opposite camp. All my friends favor Aenima and I think Lateralus is by far the best Tool album.
