CONCERT ALERT >>>

There are worse musical recipes to follow than Tool's emo-metal soufflé, but in the wrong hands all you get is a doughy blob. That's why we always stick with the original recipe.

Tool will whip up its intelligently spooky dish that's crisp around the edges July 10, 8 p.m., at KeyArena in Seattle.

The Grammy Award winning rock experimentalists are doing selected dates this summer in the U.S. and Canada while they work on new material for a new album rumored to be released in late 2010 or early 2011. The tour starts on June 19 in New Orleans and these are the first lives dates for Tool since the band went on hiatus a year ago.

Tickets for Tool's Seattle show are $33-$63, and go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster.com, all Ticketmaster outlets, including the Key Arena box office and charge by phone at 800.745.3000.

So, Tool was around WAY before the EMO scene. How could you classify them as emo-metal?

Of course, it's just how I think of them now. While I'm a fan, I still haven't received my secret Tool decoder ring.

Tool is meant to be felt and applied, The lyrics aren't mindless drone fill-ins like Godsmack. Poetry in motion. Absorb and relate, sometimes you don't need to decode.

The term Emo didn't start with Jimmy Eat World, Lateralus. You can trace it back to the Emocore bands from Washinton DC(like Fugazi). I don't consider Tool to be Emo-metal but it aint because they came out in the 90s

Culver, Fugazi was punk, not Emocore. Maybe i'm being overly defensive here, but if i found a copy of a Tool album in a record store in the Emo-metal section, i would set fire to the building. Besides, Culver- were we talking about Emocore, or Emo-metal?

What a non-argument this is. Culver, you're right. Emo's been around since the 80's, as it emerged from the hardcore scene. Lateralus, you're right. Tool is certainly not emo. It's more progressive metal.

Good? Good.
