Honestly, Tool was the first band I ever heard. When I was five, my father would give my one side of his headphones to listen to them. He said it was hilarious, seeing a five-year-old headbanging to Tool. He also got me into NIN and A perfect circle.

For me, the beginning of it all was Sober.
For years, I had sort of shrugged that song off, until I grew fond of it, and eventually loved it.
From there, I bought Lateralus, and the rest is history.

I think for me the question is what did Tool lead me into. I discovered Tool completely by accident. I got drunk with my friend, we walked down to this record store on the strip at like 11pm...I bought a punk-o-rama cd just because it was cheap...he however decided to pick up Lateralus because he had heard a song or two on the radio, that night when we got back to the house we played the cd and I was just in awe. I went out a few days later and bought the cd myself and listened to it on repeat litterally for a few weeks. Now that I had discovered Tool all I listened to for over a year was Tool. Eventually it lead me into APC, and a better appreciation for NIN. They also lead me to Rage Against the Machine, The Mars Volta, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd among other bands.

I had just got my first computer with internet access. Around then I started getting on IRC alot in differnt channels.. I started talking to a guy from Norway with the nickname 'Toolish' and asked him where he had got the nickname from. He told me of Tool and I went to a local record shop and bought Aenima. I was amazed with the album and bought the others that were out at the time. Since then I have been in love.
..I just realised that was almost 10 years ago. wow.
And I got into Nine Inch Nails around the same time, and I liked APC since they first became a band.

It was more a person that led me to Tool. My ex boyfriend was a maynard whore, and then I started reading the lyrics, and then listened to the music.
I've been in love ever since.

Started listening to NiN back when the Downward Spiral came out, and was blown away by the dynamics of that album, then someone played mer de noms for me several years after it came out, probably right before Thirnteenth Step, and i fell in love. Tool came after Emotive, and System of a Down really led me into that, as i had a good friend who listened to nothing but death metal/system, and i didn't enjoy the death metal as much as the system, and then he was like "well listen to Tool, they are more your style" and he was right.

It's quite embarrasing.
I was a very obsessed Linkin Park Fangirl.
So, naturally my friends were desperately trying to get me to listen to someting else, and when I heard Tool (schism to be precise) I just instantly loved it...

Was a child of the late 80s-early 90s music scene. KoRn, Rage Against The Machine, Celtic Frost, Kyuss, Helmut, System of a Down, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Snot, NIN, so of course TOOL must be included, and they are the best of that list, and not just that list, but any list you wish to make.
