I've been a Tool fan since long before I even knew of the existance of prog.  Aenima remains in my all-time top 5 albums even today, and Lateralus is an incredible prog album.  Apparently they've got a new album coming out in 2005.

I'd say tool are quite prog in my book.

I own laturalus and aenima and they are both excellent albums.

First time I played it, I was almost moved to tears. Great to know there's somebody out there DOIN' IT with an album that sits comfortably alongside the prog greats from the past. J's right about the headphones too. This stuff is deeeeeeep.

Lateralus can only be properly explained to someone who has properly heard it. This is a late-at-night-on-my-headphones album. There is so much complexity and emotion in this album. This is a band that has chosen to properly structure their anger and pain

Well I hate to be the only detractor but I didn't care for this album. Aside from Schizm the rest just seemed like fillers to me. I have often wondered if the singer was so involved with his other group, A Perfect Circle ,to put anythin

Frenchie, i couldnt have said all that better myself, I'm a big Tool fan and Laturalus is the most played album i have. Its dark, brooding and brilliantly complex. Parabol and Parabola are just suberb, the guitar riff is amazing. I quite

I dont want to go into whether tool are prog or not, it seems to have been debated quite a bit but i just wanna talk about this mother of an album. When you listen to it you hear something so amazing that it no longer matters what genre it is. It is someth
