    You like Tool, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer? Tool's early work was a little too progressive metal for my taste. But when Ænima came out in '96, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a deep, intricate sound, and a new level of technical precision that really gives the songs a big boost. They've been compared to bands like King Crimson, but I think Tool has a far more introspective, philosophical sense of depth. In '06, Puscifer released "V" Is for Vagina, their most eclectic album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "The Humbling River". A song so haunting, most people probably don't grasp the full meaning of the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the journey of life and the struggles we face. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.
