When I first saw this I thought Tool had actually just released this video - It's amazing! The director of this video is extremely talented and pulled off a very good example of a Tool video...I wouldn't be surprised if Tool decided to adopt it! Then again they probably wouldn't.
Post if you agree with me on this videos excellency!
Simply amazing.
And yes i do agree that Tool wouldnt adopt this or have anything that even looks like this.
Adam creates the imagery for Tool's video based on a sound, not a lyric or a word. Thats why Maynard steps completely back from the music video making process as he feels it would taint the creation with his bias, being the vocalist that he is.

I think its fantastic, but i feel uncomfortable with other people making valid attempts at tools videos. don't get me wrong, this is what tool is almost going after... all they wanted to be was literally a tool for you to do what it is you want to do. a backdrop. but i don't know, people will start comparing these videos to the real tool ones when they do come out, and expectations may not be met... its not fair to them. thats just me though.
pretty good. but no. (and in no small part because he doesn't even use the full song.)
somebody ought to post about it, if the guy makes as sincere an effort, with a video either for music not *quite* so lofty, or with a video 100% original to him.
then again i'd guess such a piece by this guy could easily be good enough to end up getting posted anyway.
can't say i follow the guy personally.
nice concept but i think the story was a little over told. didnt leave enough to imagination, but again but very cool concept and the animation and cinematography was pretty flawless.
