After purchasing the new tool album i was thinking of how pink floyd could be labeled as similar. I agree that they both do have this smartness to them, in their lyrics especially. But they are both seperate bands in seperate time periods doing what they do best.

I see how they are similar... but Tool is much harder rock than Floyd. But they are both very creative and very unique. Both are great lyrically and musically too.

Lucas_Usagi I see how they are similar... but Tool is much harder rock than Floyd. But they are both very creative and very unique. Both are great lyrically and musically too. oh absolutly, no doubt about it, Tool is deffinitly harder then Pink...but ya know what i was thinking the first time i hear 10,000 days (wings part II) was how amazing similar it sounded to something Led Zeppelin would do. i mean, the rain and thunder...very similar to Riders on the Storm, and just the sound...it was very old school prog for me. though...im insane...so...who knows.

Yea man I know what you mean. Also the use of the news cast thing in Vicarious... Im pretty sure Pink Floyd was the first band to start using audio clips like that, like nature sounds and audio clips from TV and radio, in their music... you gotta love prog music!

Tool and Pink Floyd are too often compared wrongly, seeing as how they are really nothing alike. I don't enjoy too much Floyd (aside from Animals and Meddle) and I adore Tool, and I get alot of s**t from Tool fans for that, because you have to listen to the predecessor to love the follower. Personally I think Tool take influences from alot of things, ******** them up, and produce the one and only Tool sound. And that's what I like.
I don't really care what others say.
I don't like alot of Pink Floyd.
End of story.

Well, they're both very good for a start.
Further more, they're both make Psychodellic music.
Other then the fleshing around those two facts, there isn't much more...
If you're going to compare tool to anyone, I think Led Zeppelin has the most simularities.

I'd say they are similar in lyrical content and how heavy they are. That and they both put a lot of concept in their albums... but if you want a more palettable similarity between Tool and another band, They Might Be Giants isn't similar in style at all, but if you listen to a song of theirs called "I'll Sink Manhattan" it's about sinking Manhattan into the ocean, just like Aenima is about sinking Los Angeles, and both songs feature the same Muslim rain bringing breathing chant... it's a trip that two bands that are so incredibly different could have had the same idea.

Seriously. Listen to "I'll Sink Manhattan" and "Aenima" back to back. Makes you wonder if one influenced the other... Which is a weirder idea? John Flansberg listening to Tool or Maynard Keenan listening to They Might Be Giants. I'd like to imagine both their tastes are pretty eclectic, but still...
