Aenima is my favorite by a long shot.

Dude has his own wine? wtf?

yeah.....i know

I think a lot of people credit MJK more than he deserves.

Agreed, definately overrated.

No one pays nearly enough attention to Jones, Carey or Chancellor.

Danny Carey is an awesome drummer. But then again, he gets alot of credit among drummers.

Chancellor's techniques are something that I really appreciate. If you take the time to decipher exactly which instrument you are hearing at what time, you might be surprised to find out that, "Holy ****! That was a bass?!"

True, he's noticed amongst drummers, but 90% of the time, when you hear someone talking about Tool (especially if it's a female; go figure), they're usually ranting about how much a god Maynard is. Have you heard is side projects? I've listened to it hear and there and am not impressed. As a band, Maynard of course steals the thunder. That's why I am always cautious of the front man. :) I typically favor Mr. Jones. Keenan's lyrics touch me, yes, but Jone's riffs make me cry. He's truly an underrated mastermind - not only in the sense of playing the guitar, either. Also helps that he kind of looks like Spock.
