Perfect Circle is incredible... I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. I haven't gotten into Tool yet, I keep meaning to dl some songs or get a cd, but I have yet to get around to it... I'm sure I'll like them, because from what I've heard they have the same feel as Perfect Circle.

Same, but different. Older tool is quite heavy/progresssive metal, but Lateralus and onward definitely shows influences from Maynard's stint with APC - much, much more melodic, not nearly as aggressive.

My Tool song suggestions for easy transition hehe:

H. (off Ænima)
Off Lateralus: The Patient, Parabol, Parabola, Lateralus, Disposition, Reflection
Off 10,000 Days: Wings for Marie; 10,000 Days (these two are about Maynard's mother, who spent "10,000 days" debilitated by a stroke before passing away - very touching songs - they give me chills every time); Intension; Right in Two.

I can zip and upload these for anyone who wants 'em later on when I'm at home....
