I lovveee :worship: TOOL!!!! Seen TOOL and Perfect Circle in concert a bunch of times. Saw my first TOOL concert already back in '93. Their drummer is one of the best ever, and is the best heavy metal (if you can call TOOL that) drummer out there now! YES's orginal drummer is awesome too especially with his timing changes. Rush's drummer is great too, but YES's and TOOL's drummer IMO are just a notch better.
I will admit that music wise, my taste are very diverse. When it comes to riding tunes only heavy, fast, and music with a lot of drive do the trick for me. If we're talkin' punk I like the ALL, Decendants, 7 Seconds, etc. For hardcore I like Fugazi, Rollins Band, Black Flag, Minor Threat, Naked Raygun, Gwar, Husker Du, etc. For Alternative (none radio at all crap) I dig Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Jawbox, Mudhoney, Breeders, etc. For a more electronic sound I jam on Ministry, Zombie and Depche Mode (should I be embarassed about that?). For classic tunes I rock Iron Butterfly, Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplanes, the Doors, BLACK SABBATH (symptoms of the universe rocks!), Crazy world of Authur Brown (fire), the Animals, Rare Earth, YES, Jethro Tull, Mountain, Led Zepplin, Rush,etc. I also dig older country music and any country with a boogie beat. I also can enjoy some club music, disco and older big band tunes. I also got a thing for jazz like Weather Report and Spyro Gyro. The worst part is most of my tunes are still on 33lp's. Has anyone seen SLAYERS 'reign in blood' on a 33lp? I actually own one...
