Flat Interpretation...

This CD does little justice to the depth and atmosphere of Tool. Most of the bands presented on this CD offer mediocre remakes in the Electronica vein of musical genres. Most songs sound flat with very little offered in terms of listening enjoyment.



Personally, I would only recommend this CD for fans of both Tool and Electronica. If you are an avid Tool fan, and dislike Electronica (some people call it Techno-rock or even Rocktronica), you should definitely avoid this album. The only reason I gave this CD two stars is because I was able to listen to a few songs--"Die Eier Von Satan" specifically.

Gothic Tool

LOL I've been reading the other reviews and I didn't see any mention of Tool being covered by GOTHIC bands on this CD... All of these bands are from the gothic genre and that's why they don't sound identical to the originals... Why would you want to buy a CD twice anyway? I think it's great that other bands, from different genres took on the challenge of covering the all mighty TOOL... If you don't like gothic music, don't buy this CD. Period.

Tool

I have to give this CD 4 stars. This is NOT a Tool album, Tool fans who are expecting to hear songs that are similar to Tool, don't get your hopes up.

This is purely an industrial album. Bands such as Razed in Black, Maya Hyena and others, have made their mark in this style and know how to make a good cover song. Some, even though not as much, still do the job in the same direction. What you can excpect off of this album is quality industrial tracks, which happen to be Tool songs. NOT the other way around. If you like industrial, and are familiar with Tool, you will like this CD. Otherwise, have a listen to both Tool, and some of the bands featured on this CD first.
