Re: new TOOL logo . . .

Well Crow,
I was immediately attracted to the Logo. Of course everyone has their own idividiual reactions, but mine was somewhat inspiring. Im not sure how, but it brought warmth in me. I think its a great logo. I cant wait to see if they update the logo again on their next album.

Also a message to all those fans who say "I have an interstellar connection with Tool and maynard" and all that other bullshit. Look i respect the depth of your passion and all, but thats just going too far. Show yourself some respect, and stop pretending to be someone your not.

Oh yeah i like to tool logo..... where i am i again??

Re: new TOOL logo . . .

when i showed my mom the logo, she tried to read it (were arabic) and she actually thought it was a word. so i agree with it going for being middle eastern, or something of that sort. even in reflection that instrument sounds middle eastern styled.

Re: new TOOL logo . . .

Wow, this thread has been going on for a while

Anyway, my brother bought a Tool hat with the new logo on it and one of his friends was like "whoa what a cool hat, I love the crown." We were wondering what he was talking about, and then we looked at the logo and realized it does resemble a crown. Which would mean the logo ties into the first track of the album, The Grudge.

So maybe that was Tool's intention, to create a logo that matches the album Lateralus, which leads me to believe we can expect another new logo with the next album.

Whatever the reasoning behind it is, it looks kick-ass.

this really does expand my own tool listenings i spose
