• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

I have been jamming to some Tool on my work commute. Always wanted to listen to their stuff more and this thread has inspired me. Really enjoying it and it seems to me like the have basically defined their own genre

They have a unique sound...lots of bands inspired by them but they are the only ones to do what they do.

I try to explain them to folks not familiar with them as being "The Pink Floyd of Metal"

Its very prog rock, songs that don't always follow the typical verse/chorus format. Lots of odd time signatures, so folks who like the drums have something brainy to chew on. A little bit of shock rock, a good bit of deep meaning spiritual lyrics of existence beyond the flesh.

They're amazing live. Huge sound.

Glad you're giving them a spin, and I'm very happy this thread gets good traction. Consider it my best contribution to TFSF.

I’ve always been a huge Pink Floyd fan too. About to jam to some tool while I get my thanksgiving day workout in
