Doesn't have many posts, but I figured I'd point it out to all of you.

I like Tool a lot. Love their original sound. The only thing about them is I feel that their album contain a lot of "fillers." Long songs of silence or chanting. I can't get into those.

Yeah interesting to hear about Live on a Tool forum, thanks pheezy.

Also, good work with that post, that's one of the most honest appraisals of Live and their music I've seen in a while.

I'm into both Live and Tool-- though I think you'll find any people enjoying both Live and Tool will name Live's first 3 or 4 albums as markedly superior to their last 3. I do credit Live, or Ed, rather, with being solid at pop songwriting, I'm just disappointed they're not the rock band they once promised they could continue to be. I want a bit of that anger back- Tool still has it, not to mention virtuoso musicianship. Live have reduced significantly whatever innovations they used to apply in their music.

you hit on it right there. i think taylor definately needs to be more involved in the songwriting.
