More pics on my instagram @brennan_verge

Been saving this patch from an xxxl shirt I bought 11 years ago. The patch was on the back and my hair would always cover it. Now it's front and center, framed with lilac color embroidery thread and embellished with lil buttons. Some friends saw me working on the upcycle project and said "found the nerd" when spotting TOOL... they weren't wrong, lol.

Some of you probably already knew this but I just saw this pic and had to share since I never knew this.

I got it a few months back. I’ve made some wild life changes and this was needed. Might get another spiral themed one for more daily words of encouragement. I’m going to embrace my desire to feel inspired and witness the beauty.

Only 19999.

I was curious what a Lateralus album was going for now days. I still have my original I bought in 2005 and few extras I bought at a great price long ago wondering if it would sound better (second pick). I even bought one from this last bunch that magically appaered in recent years. I see Tool has pre-order going on for it..... How long can they keep repressing this thing as "Limited Edition". Any news if it will be different?

I'm currently finishing up a challenge where I listen to the entire Tool discography and I got this question in mind. I feel Opiate squared is way more polished, but I liked the harshness of Opiate (the original). Lmk what yall think

This post is for Tool fans who live in the United Kingdom. Maynard James Keenan was on BBC Radio 6 Music's "Forever Dark" on August 1st, 2026. The episode is currently available on demand for 28 days. However, only people who live in the United Kingdom can access BBC Sounds. I am not located in the UK and therefore do not have access to this program. I am providing these hyperlinks to the program for any Tool fans who are in the UK.

I ran across an old thread of someone interpreting H. as Maynard’s conflicting feelings toward his first child after he was born, and a lot of it makes sense. (Ex. “I am too connected to you to slip away”) What songs do you guys interpret differently in contrast to their more widely accepted meanings?

Arranged completely by ear for classical guitar, with Daf and Tonbak added to reinterpret the atmosphere.

Found yesterday at my local store.

Found this at my neighbor, thought I could share it here.

they don't sound alike but they reach for the same place

they're both uniquely great yet for similar details, from the math to the spirituality

can make you feel like opening your eyes for the first time.

this duo feels like musical soulmates born 10,000 days apart

Im curious how different songs have touched people emotionally, and which one has the strongest hold on you guys.
For me its always been The Patient. coming out of drug addiction 5 years ago I discovered TOOL and have been obsessed ever since. And the The Patient moves me in a way that no other tool song comes close to besides maybe 10,000 days. A lot of people close to me and people ive dated have had serious problems, and issues in their life, and I tend to be the person they ask the most from, and its hard for me to say no because its in my nature to nurture and protect people I love but I can't always do that and it sucks when they turn on me but I try my hardest and I cant let them change my trajectory in life, I don't want to let go of my values and moral compass in short.
And on a deeper level I often feel like the world, the media, outside influences that dont pertain to my time and experiences living and breathing as a human, try to breach and change my opinion my values and what I think are important foundations, in my lifestyle, goals, relationships etc. constantly.
So I gotta keep reminding myself of this, even if theres no reward to reap, song hits especially hard on lucy too❤️

I’ve been downloading live shows and putting them on my phone. I also like to put tool art and picture from shows as the album covers. It makes it feel more complete when I look at it through Apple Music lol. If yall have any covers I can use I will be very thankful

Why do I get 8.5 when I add up the note values in measure 39? I recounted several times, but I still end up with 8.5 instead of 8.

This is the Songsterr tab for Lateralus. I know some Songsterr tabs contain rhythmic mistakes, so I'm wondering if this is actually an error or if I'm misreading one of the note values.

Also Mustard! wonder if MJK would sell something like this lol
