I have not heard much Tool, bot I don't think that these bands have a lot in common.

To consider your value for entertainment, in remonstrance for quality, within progressive bands' appreciation, I think the so-called "poseur" - whose identidy, uniquely imbedded with the group's coexistence, probably gets you off since he fails to appeal to what casts appreciation in his divergence from the average spectacle (rumours tend to imply his name is Maynard James Keenan), - wouldn't be the only one to reciprocate your thought, as even DT or any other valuable musician would come to advert/punchback about how he/she's quality isn't measured through the category of "circus artistry", hyperbolicly speaking. Perhaps I'm cathing an erroneous conception of your phrases' intention and I apologize if so, but that exuded barren views of musical importance, since, beyond your egregious subjectivity to define Tool, their originally crafted countenance, of consistently unwavering "artistic" integrity, defies premature auditions for the precociously critic ear, as to see what lies beneath more than meets the eye takes auditive sensibility and patiently placid sagacity, not just an overwhelmed feel contracted upon hearing instruments reach their highest grounds of impressive skill, which, although might prove useful in a guitar-virtuoso band, isn't sufficient towards prog or any less conspicuous flairs, in rock itself.

Tool.

hmmm I notice a trend here , people who like Dream Theater keep their opinions simple and straight to the point , but people who prefer Tool make negative remarks about dream theater to "try" and justify their point ... this I find interesting

   Tool.
   I like the Harder, edgeier, darker side of their music.
   I don't care for D.T.'s vocalist.

Tool by a looong shot!
I choose Emotion, and True Feeling over Instrumental godness. (Even though Danny Carey is a far more talented drummer then mike portnoy).

I really do like DT i listen to them all the time. But i cant remember the last time they gave me goosebumps, or made me cry. Unlike Tool. Which leave me feeling i can't explain. but it's the best feeling in the world!
