I am building a shrine to Maynard from Tool

[WorthlessLiar]

Actually Geggy, I was saying Tool is one of the few bands that success doesn't seem to have spoiled. Song structure-wise, Lateralus is their least comercial sounding release yet its been remarkably successful. Their popularity was a bit more hard won and without comprimise.

As far as Floyd goes (I do like them). Floyd was a group of musicians who were obviously influenced by earlier artists. Does that make their influences the best bands ever? I'm sick of ancestor worship when it comes to music. The notion that the best stuff was made in the past, therefor there cannot possibly be inovation from artists from the present pisses, me off.
