A unique blend of metal, alt-rock, prog-rock and even psychedelic at times, Tool was formed by vocalist Maynard James Keenan, guitarist Adam Jones, bassist Paul D'Amour and drummer Danny Carey. Their 1992 debut EP Opiate showed a raw, straight-forward alt-metal sound. In 1993, they exploded onto the scene following a spot on Lollapalooza that year, and their full-length debut Undertow went platinum in the US, thanks to their gritty, straightforward metal sound and eyebrow-raising videos directed by guitarist Adam Jones (who was involved with film before going into music, and actually worked on the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park).
