Maynard James Keenan hit the ground running with his band Tool. This and subsequent records completely shocked the world of metal, grunge and alternative rock.

It’s been full-on 12 hour plus days over a 13 day solid stretch as I rolled up my sleeves and gave all the techy stuff a kick up the pants.

Tool - Opiate [EP] (2006)

I needed a short, sharp burst of proper metal-infused, hard-edged rock this evening. Hopefully to fuck up the neighbours (who have a tendency to party into the wee hours) but unfortunately you need a really crap sound system like theirs to do the damage.

After a day of hearing the “I’m so busy” chant at work (ah diddums!) it’s time for a blow out. Tool live is one of the greatest rock events I have ever experienced.
