Our Take

In a world of musical mediocrity, TOOL are a welcomed gust of fresh air, consistently pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo. Their latest offering, "Stranglehold" on Clear Vinyl, is no exception.

From the moment the needle touches the groove, listeners are transported to a universe where sonic experimentation knows no bounds. The hypnotic rhythms and intricate melodies blend seamlessly to create a truly immersive experience that demands repeat spins.

The album kicks off with the thunderous track "Mind Control," a seven-minute opus that showcases TOOL's virtuosic musicianship and penchant for captivating storytelling. Frontman Maynard James Keenan's ethereal vocals soar over intricate guitar work and pounding drums, creating a sense of unease and intrigue that is as intoxicating as it is addictive.

As the album progresses, TOOL continue to defy expectations with tracks like "Paranoia" and "Darkness Falls," each offering a unique sonic journey that will leave even the most seasoned music aficionados in awe.

"Stranglehold" is a masterclass in musical innovation, blending heavy riffs, hypnotic rhythms, and thought-provoking lyrics to create an album that is as intellectually stimulating as it is utterly captivating. In a world saturated with musical mediocrity, TOOL continue to shine as a beacon of true artistic excellence.
