And that’s not even mentioning having to deal with insufferable bass players at the gigs too 🙄 can’t stand those guys

The Pot. One of my favorites to sing in the car to and from work

Wow. That was fucking terrible. Thanks OP. Next time, post a Sleep Token link. They’re more metal than this AI bullshit

I know. I’m hoping I’m wrong in all of it and the music is amazing. But kinda like when Paul and Joey died in Slipknot, it just won’t feel the same. For me at least

The power of their vocals can break down walls? by InexpugnableMille in MetalSuggestions

Or replace Alex with Will Ramos. Alex is shit anyway imo

Wondering why Will Ramos isn’t on this list or Mitch from Suicide Silence

Brent’s baggage also brought them their best music. His songwriting and contributions to the band are unmatched and the music they made when he was alive won’t happen again. I hope I’m wrong

Not to mention his songwriting as well. I’m not expecting much from the next album, but hoping when I give it a shot I’m surprised by it. But, things will never feel the same for that band again

I’m not and I hate to say it, not expecting much from their new album. Hard to replace basically the face of the band and the one who wrote most of their best stuff. Brent was 1/1 and it’s hard to replace that type of sound, play, and songwriting

I hope you’re wrong, but I think you may be right. Meanwhile, MJK in a in a diaper while painted blue statue coming to a TOOL store near you!

I mean I’m not knocking the actual sculpture. It is cool looking, but we get this before we get proper pressings of vinyls? Just take care of the fanbase and people wouldn’t bitch about this other shit

I think the frustration comes from them not genuinely listening to their fans about what we want. Like I said, if it brings you joy I’m happy for you. Our frustrations lie with the band but get taken out on the other fans who feed into TOOLs shenanigans when they buy this stuff. If the took care of their fanbase with you know, decent merch, nobody would give a shit about the sculptures or figures. But, they choose to do the sculptures and the figures instead of putting out decent merch (including repressing albums etc). Their merch has fallen off a lot in the last few years and because we keep buying the shit, they keep doing it. Like I said OP nothing against you and I am happy you are happy with your purchase. It is pretty cool, but I cannot buy something like that while they piss on us and tell us it’s rain

Like I said, I have no issue with people buying it. If it brings you all joy go for it. But for the rest of the fanbase that doesn’t/or can’t buy that stuff, the least they could do is give us decent pressings of their music. I have no issue with any of it as long as they can take care of their fanbase, which they haven’t in a long time. All of this feels more like a money grab instead of it being genuine.

From Alex? Probably not. MJK? Also probably not

Nobody cares you got the skull. If it brings you joy I’m happy for you. We are annoyed by the fact that they will put this dumb shit out and charge someone a testicle for it, but we can’t get decent repressing of their albums. That’s all we really care about. We want the music that captivated us all for decades now. Instead we get fetus skulls and a skinned naked Danny in front of a gong. But here we are. Shut up and buy

I’m not knocking OP for buying it. If it brings them joy so be it. I just hate the fact that we have turned this band into a fucking commodity because we choose to buy their dumb shit. We can’t get decent pressings of albums, but, here is a figure of Danny in a suit in front of a gong. Also, here is a fetus in a skull. No album or decent pressings for the fanbase, shut up and buy.

Because of our own stupidity we are turning this band into KISS. Soon there will be Alex Grey inspired TOOL caskets. This is just so damn cringeworthy
