Tool lyrics and videos are dark. They are a band that has something to say. Not everything is this world is pretty. I get tired of hearing the same thing over and over and the lack of creativity in most bands today is sad.
We can be so much more and we all know it...this is the source of a lot of the darkness, the anger, and the frustration. It is not bad though...in order to change inside for the better, you have to deal with the darkness. It sucks and it scares other people because it reminds them they haven't even began to look inside and ask the hard questions.
Check out Vicarious on YouTube....yes a lot of their videos seem so dark...but, the lyrics and the message, to me, is anything but...they nail an emotion, a duality, a thought process, an awareness we all have inside...too bad too many fear it...I did for too long.
Another Creative work of art Bravo!! 2 thumbs up!
