The nearly 20-year-old Tool formed in 1990 when Danny Carey, Paul D'Amour, Maynard James Keenan, and Adam Jones all met each other within the matter of a couple years.

Reaching #50, its promotion in concerts following the release led to it going gold within five months. It is now certified 2x platinum, according to the RIAA. The band's next three albums, Ænima, Lateralus, and 10,000 days, have all been in the top 2 on the Billboard 200, and combined have sold more than 8 million albums just in the United States. Several of the band's singles have been hits, including "Stinkfist," "Ænema," "Schism," and "Vicarious." The band has won Grammys for singles "Ænema" and "Schism" and album 10,000 Days.

About Tool

Tool was created in 1990 by singer Maynard James Keenan and guitarist Adam Jones. Keenan and Jones met in 1989, and over the next couple years met and recruited drummer Danny Carey and bassist Paul D'Amour into the band. Tool spent its first couple years playing the local Los Angeles circuit before being signed by label Zoo Entertainment. The band began their meteoric rise to fame with their 1992 debut EP, Opiate. In 1993, the band released their first studio album, Undertow, at the height at the alternative rock movement in the United States. After landing a spot in the main stage lineup at the 1993 Lollapalooza, sales of the album began to skyrocket, and by September of that year, it was certified platinum. The release of Undertow was not without controversy. The album's cover, depicting a nude man and woman, was pulled from several retail locations, prompting the band to release another version with a censored cover. Regardless of the controversy, sales of the album continue to do well, selling well over two million copies since its release.

Paul D'Amour left the band in 1995, and was replaced by Justin Chancellor, giving the band their current line-up. With a new member, Tool went back to the studio. According to All Music Guide, the tastes of music listeners had changed by the time the quartet released their sophomore effort Ænima in 1996, moving from alternative rock to metal. However, the album defied the transition, landing at #2 on the Billboard 200, and selling well over 3 million copies since the release. The album was dedicated to and partially themed around comedian Bill Hicks, with whom the band developed a friendship before the former died of pancreatic cancer in 1994. Two songs from the album, "Third Eye" and "Ænema," both make references to Hicks material, and a special cover prominently features the comedian. With the outstanding success of their first two albums, the band's fortunes seemed bright.

However, a long hiatus following Tool's promotional tour for Ænima, including a headlining spot at the 1997 Lollapalooza, left questions about the future of the band. Keenan formed a side project, A Perfect Circle, which released the #4 charting Mer de Noms in 2000. The band was able to disspell rumors of a breakup by releasing a box set, Salival in 2000. They followed up with their third album Lateralus in 2001. Clocking in at #1 and double platinum status, the album gave Tool not only their biggest hit album to date, but also one of their biggest singles, when "Schism" reached #2 on the U.S. Modern Rock chart. After taking another extended break, the band released their latest album, 10,000 Days. Though the 2006 album was less well received than the band's previous work, according to Metacritic, it has still been commercially successful, reaching #1 on the Billboard 200, selling over a million units, and spawning the hit single "Vicarious." In addition to its continuing success album wise, Tool concerts are a popular draw for fans of the band. With the band gearing up for a summer 2009 tour, this will be an opportunity for fans to get reacquainted with their favorite band after their hiatus.

Tool Trivia

• From Wikipedia: Albums and songs by Tool have been the subject of controversy on multiple occasions. In addition to the censored cover for Undertow, the music video for "Stinkfist" from the album Ænema was renamed "Track 1" and the lyrics for airplay purposes changed due to the perceived sexual nature of the song. Other songs, such as "Prison Sex," have been criticized on the grounds of obscene content.
• Various sources cite different influences seen in Tool's work. The New York Times has written that their sound is similar to Led Zeppelin, while All Music Guide has cited the band as a successor to the style used by Jane's Addiction and their third album Lateralus as comparable to the Pink Floyd album Meddle.
• From VH1: In late 2001, Tool received the gig of a lifetime when they briefly toured with progressive rock cult favorite King Crimson. King Crimson has influenced many bands in their 40 year existance, including Tool.
