Have you ever heard of Uli Jon Roth? He's the guy Yngwie has been trying to copy for a good 25 years now, but still can't match him. If anyone spawned the 'genre', its Roth.

Yngwie spawned a genre, and Tool did not, as far as I'm aware of. That is what I meant by Yngwie is more innovative. Tool did not change the face of rock guitar or have the influence on rock like Yngwie did. Blackmore and Rhoads laid the foundation for neo classical metal, but Yngwie kick started the genre. Yngwie took the world by storm with his debut, then came all these followers, like MacAlpine, Moore, Becker, Friedman, Gilbert, Romeo, etc. All of a sudden there are tons of guitar virtuosos to emerge after the wake of Yngwie. I think you're the one that needs help if you don't realize this.

Some people might say the same about Rush, but Rush music is by far better than anything Tool has ever done.

 

 

You can't really compare the two.  Rush is Art Prog, Tool is Prog Metal. 

But if i had to listen to one of the two, it would definitely be Rush.

Lateralus...best album ever...end of story

I mean this album is so dark and light at the same time.......... i've tripped to this album many a time and its safe to say it takes you somewhere that some people just aren't prepared for

its ok....one day you may be able to get there.......

So dark and light at the same time...reminds me of 3 Musketeers.

Seriously, Lateralus kicks bovine booty and I can't wait to hear the new album.

I like that Tool album. Tool is a great band, even their more recent music I find to be enjoyable.

A Perfect Circle was after Lateralus right? That was only the lead singer of Tool not the whole band, yes.
