Tool

In the early chapters of their career, Tool was making waves with the release of their debut album, "Undertow," which dropped just months prior to this live performance on October 7, 1991. At the time, Tool was still carving out their identity in the rock scene, opening for acts like the Too Free Stooges at intimate venues such as the Club With No Name in Hollywood. This era was pivotal, as they were beginning to blend their heavy alt-metal sound with complex rhythms and introspective lyrics. It's fascinating to see how this raw footage captures a band on the verge of explosive fame, showcasing the energy and experimentation that would later define their work. Did you know that they were still refining their unique sound during this time? This live performance is a snapshot of their early growth before the iconic success they would soon achieve.
