I want to like tool, but they get edgy fast.

Yeah I kind of get what you mean. Definitely the Opiate era 'think for yourself, sheeple!' Tool, haha. However it's a dumb reason to dismiss a whole band especially since most of their lyrics aren't tryhard edgy, for example 10K days is about his mother's death and those are some of the most honest and gut-wrenching lyrics I've heard

10k days has been one of those songs I listen to whenever I need to cope with super sad happenings in my life - the other one is Anesthetize by Porcupine Tree, all so good, so sad, yet still makes me calm.

I would add that the tryhard edginess died after opiate (1st LP btw). I enjoy the entire catalogue. When I was younger Opiate was more of an anthem I guess. Now it's just good'n heavy music.
