bands similar to tool

   Seems Dead Soul Tribe has already been mentioned.  A Perfect Circle is said to sound similar to Tool (Maynard sings), but A Perfect Circle doesn't have the conceptual sophistication and ambient segues mapped out to perfection like Tool does.

	Indukti. Another Polish band. They have Mariusz Duda of Riverside guesting on two tracks as vocalist. Quite a bit different to Tool, but they're a cross between King Crimson and Tool, with their own unique sound. They also use harp (of the stringed variety) and didgeridoo. The drumming is very Tool-like though. The violin parts remind me of King Crimson's David Cross at times also, very good. They've only released the one album: S.U.S.A.R. and that was released on The Laser's Edge label (Riverside also share the same label for their debut, but their second album is on InsideOut Records). I actually prefer them over Tool. Edited by Geck0 - June 25 2006 at 22:11

	Some people say Dead Soul Tribe has a similar sound. I don't particularly agree with this myself, but you can see what you think.

	In addition to KC (which is a must), Riverside.

	mmm...nop, Tool are pretty unique... But maybe you will like King Crimson if you havent heard them before that is...Maynard once said "King Crimson is the band we have been repping off all this years"
	"You want me to play what, Robert?"
