"Goatboy- tell me about Tool"

Ok. I've heard of tool and I have have heard a song. Schism. Didn't like it to much as it was slow and eerie.

I know you like them and I was wondering if you could tell me abit about them. What type of music they play, are all songs like that schism etc etc?
Cheers.

if you want to buy some music albums you should buy an album of this independant group called 'Radiohead' they have only been around for about 3-4 years but have made two albums (OK Computer and KID A) both of which ROCK!! they are kind of nu-metal and indie music combined. you should check them out, i think they are releasing a new album last this year too! should be a good year for music then!

yes, but when you've sen as many animated movies as i have (toy story, small soldiers, monsters inc.) my standards are higher and I expect more from a animated movie like shrek. if you like it good for you but i prefer more intellectual movies.

I've got the feeling Ice Blaster is on a spending spree :-)

Although I can reccomend some stuff I would ask you to download a track from the band before you buy to see if you like their style etc. So that would be wise.

Ok, so tell me which style of music you like. Favourite bands? Genres? Styles? anything.

And I'll reccomend some stuff :-)

tools singer may be good, but there are better singers, people like Will Young (who recently won pop idol) has a great voice and i think that he is better then muse's singer because millions of people across England voted for him to win. admittadly i havent heard any of muse's tunes - its difficult but i think Will's voice is better then the Muse singers voice. but Will is manufactured so he isnt the best, but is good anyway.

Shrek is not suppose to look all realistic. For a start its set in a 'fantasy world' with 'fairy tale' characters.

I liked Shrek, it is rare that animations ever make me laugh and Shrek done just that - made me laugh, on many occasions.

I saw Monsters Inc. Some say it is better then Shrek but in my view it isn't at all, it doesn't even come close.

Shrek is one of those films you don't get very often.

Well reccomend me stuff. I have plenty of spare cash *ka-ching* and I know were to get cheap decent CD's.

Let me know what you recceomend. I have bough over 20 albums this year alone! Stuff such as Machine head, green day, Muse, Feeder, Mariyln manson, Metallica, Pearl Jam...

MORE MORE!!!

shrek was ok, its just that the characters didnt seem to realistic, but the actor who plays Austin Powers (his voice was in it) was funny. it was bascially a comedy, but i cants say it was the best because the characters weren't very realistic and believable. i think a comedy like Rush Hour 2 is better. if you are going to watch one of these two watch Rush Hour two, Jackie Chan (Kung-fu actor) Starrs in it with Chris Tucker and they are a pair or cops, its really good, although slightly too Hollywood for my tastes.

P.S

Tool's vocalist Maynard is unique, great singer. Tool's music is unique, lots of atmosphere.

Tool are no way a hip-hop band.

I would describe Tool as a rock band with sense and they have heart. Heart in rock is what is needed.

I reccomend them. But I recommend Far more :-)
