So it has come to this, my progger friends. Tool is in the top 100 list (at least for now.) "Lateralus" sp?

I'm comfortable with it. If enough people feel it is a prog rock record, and
rate it highly, then it deserves to be there irrespective of my personal views.

I think it's great,what do you expect me to say.The rest of you go stick your heads back in the sand and worship all the 70's classic prog bands that you all love so much,since even trying to like anything new or different is beyond you.

Lateralus is a wonderful prog record. If ya don't like it, then return
your fingers to your ears, resume saying "la la la la la", and pretend
its still 1974.

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.

Tool are amazing, Lateralus is as prog as it can be and it should be higher up. Even though I like AEnima more, Lateralus is their ultimate prog masterliece.

Tool is an immensly popular band, and imo, rightly so! Lateralus is a masterpeice, and Aenima is great. Now that Mr. Bungle and Fantomas arent in prog metal (at least last time i checked im pretty sure) Tool is my favourite prog-metal band!
