Why has no other band been able to pull off what Tool does?
Most prog is wanky and too focused on technical shit they forget to include grooves and dynamic builds and releases. The closest band that seems capture Tool’s creative essence is Gob Ribbons

Mudvayne's debut album is very similar to Tool.

>>127810402
I’ll need to check it out. I like that album but I haven’t listen to it all the way through.

>>127810398
this band is closer to korn than they are to king crimson
>>
>>127810819
King Crimson disagrees with you.

It's nice that the drummer is the technical wizard for a change, instead of the guitarist.

>>127810845
didn't ask

The world disagrees with Mrs. Fripps nips

>>127810398

Soen and Karnivool come pretty close

They have their own style though, and anything that sounds like it comes across as ripping them off in some way.

>>127810819
I don't hear the resemblance to KC either

>>127811708
Post some prominent prog that grooved before Tool.

Because Tool is not prog. They just have a cool drummer.

>>127810845
Fripp is a moron.

Most of tool's progressiveness comes from danny carey's drumming. Tool can be best described as hammer ons and pull offs. That isn't actually progressive. The time signatures and the drumming are progressive, but tool themselves aren't actually as progressive as progressive can get.

Best Album: Opiate
Best Song: Cold and Ugly

so..... tool?
>>
>name of the band describes its fanbase
any other examples?
>>
>>127810398
>prog
there's nothing prog about tool. they're stoner rock. use of odd time signatures does not make a band prog otherwise prog means basically nothing.
>>
>>127810398
Wdym A Perfect Circle sounds like the diet version of them
>>
>>127817112
Yea but it’s not

>>127811781
>I don't hear the resemblance to KC either
Further proof that 90s KC is underrated
>>
>>127810398
Dude... Ministry, tool wouldn't of made anything after undertow if it wasn't for Al Jorgensen spiking Adam and Maynard with acid, ministry are better then tool as well.
