Continuing our theme about "thinking for ourselves" and "question authority", one of today best bands is a huge proponent of these thoughts. That little ol' band from LA LA land, Tool. Not exactly the same genre as Mr B but these guys are so far beyond anyone else it's scary. Their music is not for everyone (my wife hates 'em) and far be it from me to ram them down anyone's throats. But if you like thought provoking music on the heavier/progressive side check them out.

And now a bit from their second cd Aenema...

"Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will cuz
I sure could use a vacation from this

Silly shit, stupid shit...

One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

Learn to swim.

Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.

Learn to swim."
