That's a good album, except the instruments and the experimentation is MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER on BE and its not just purely based on emotions..

On BE, Gildenlow forgot that music comes befre the concept

Come on man, why do you care so much?

(BTW: from the albums that are in the list, I would place Lateralus even higher... that said: I would exclude more than half of the list if I would have to make my personal top 100)

But why bother? The list is a nice indication of the most popular albums here.



Because that list neither acts as a good indicator of what prog is nor which albums would make good starting points for budding prog fans. It causes arguments and ratings wars, countless threads such as this one and serves no real function other than to show which albums have been rated the most. So blood what? I don't think it adds to this site, but it certainly takes away.

Progtologist - this has got nothing to do with me "worshipping 70s bands" you should know I'm not guilty of that. I just feel this list serves no real purpose other than to upset people and cause arguments.

I know TP.I usually have a pretty thick skin but every once in a while I get tired of people bashing a band I am very passionate about.I am pretty used to it and usually it rolls right off of me.I just knew even before I looked at the thread that there was gonna be quite a bit of Tool bashing.So,I apologize TP

Who's bashing? its just a conversation about whether or not to have Tool on this site is all. No one said they sucked- or were crappy. They are talented.



I have no problem with Tool being on this site, they're a prog band and no mistake. What concerns me is that this is yet another controversy sparked by that accursed list. WHY DO WE NEED IT?

Trouser- Who's holding you hostage to this thread? You don't have to post!

I am....I doused all his Gentle Giant albums with lighter fluid and have a pack of matches in my hand....

Tp....say Tool is prog or GG gets it!!!!!!!!

I'd hazard a guess at Perfect Element.

OK- lets just say this- regarding the top 100- if you think they should be there- thats fine. If otherwise- fine. Its obvious that they are controversial to this site- and nothing can be resolved. Listen to what you dig- sorry to any Tool fans (if I offended you- im sorry.) Rock on.

It was and is NOT a conversation about whether or not to have Tool on this site at all.It was a conversation about Lateralus being in the Top 100.

So if Audioslave talks about anal sex THEN can they be added to this site?

No....if Audioslave was a progressive metal band they can be added.THEY"RE NOT.
