its one thing that their songs all sound amazing when they play together but if you really truly listen deeply to their songs you realize that each individual instrument on its own is brilliant and youd be satisfied just listening to that one instrument by itself....even if maynard sand a capella it would be a mindfuck

they each play their instruments better and more creatively than any bands that have been mentioned or will be mentioned and im sorry thats not my opinion, its just a fact
Tool has some damn good musicians, but you can't say it's a fact that they're the greatest group of virtuosos in rock history. I would say Led Zeppelin were a band of infitinitely more power and versatility, and I'm sure others would agree. Come on, you're really saying Tool's guitarist is better than Hendrix, Page or Clapton?
