Description:Arguably their finest album, this follow-up to Opiate showcases Tool at their best, assisted by clean, crisp production, without the muddiness of Aenima. Edgy guitar riffs are complemented by spitting, heavy bass, especially on "Sober" and "Crawl Away". Lyrically, Tool are at their vitriolic best, targeting religious hypocrisy ("Intolerance," "Sober"; always a popular theme), the loss of innocence and it's consequences ("Prison Sex"), and deliberate ignorance ("Swamp Song"). Henry Rollins makes a guest appearance on "Bottom," which, along with "4 Degrees," deals with questions of identity. Undertow is also Tool's most musically adventurous album, lacking the occasionally numbing sameness of Aenima, and with considerably more sophistication than their previous work.

Paul D'Amour does some amazing work with the bass guitar. Maynard is great with the vocals. The way the bass guitar and the lead/rythm guitar work together is stunning.

Tool's debut is a nice collection of emotionally charged metal that goes beyond "girls, and drugs, and cars" for lyrical content other metal bands had been hung up on. They, like Helmet (or Prong if you want to be accurate), were probably one of the most ripped off and mimicked bands of the 90s and 2000s and for good reason.

A very solid and excellent debut by Tool. My favourites are Sober and Prison Sex.

Das wohl großartigste Album einer Band, die sich in kein Genre stecken lässt. Das musikalische Knowhow ist bei jedem einzelnen Takt zu hören. Leider erfolgte bisher immer noch kein neues (das Fünfte) Album.
