What every Tool fan boy will say. He'
s normally listened to dumb heavy
metal and simple minded rock songs all his life and smoked pot. All of a sudden he discovered Tool and acts like he is smarter than everyone in the world. The reason the fans think they are smarter than everyone is because Tool uses so many intellectual theory and philosophy influence lyrics and imagery in their songs that the
kids begin to think they're smarter than everyone because they think they understand something no one else understands. All of a sudden these
kids feel superior to their peers who listen to simple minded rock and heavy
metal. The reason this has happened because Tool's music is accessible to the mainstream and at the same
time tool uses less accessible and strange ideas hidden behind their lyrics. this means they can capture and attract dumb people but hide stronger intellectual concept within their songs which are later discovered upon more careful analysis and research. the fanatic
kids who put stronger research into tool's songs normally become psuedo intellectual
art snobs and hipsters. these
kids think tool is the greatest
band on earth because compared to what these
kids listened to all their life, eg dumb rocking power ballad and
pop/rock bands, tool is superior in concept. tool is a great band, it's just their fans who become obnoxious with staunch conviction.
