Tool Live Performance of 'Part of Me', 'Hush', and 'Cold & Ugly' in Phoenix
In 1992, Tool was riding the wave of their debut album, 'Undertow,' which had been released just a year prior. With hits like 'Sober' propelling them into the spotlight, the band's live performance at The Mason Jar in Phoenix was a crucial moment. This recording captures their raw energy and musicianship, providing fans with an early glimpse of their evolving sound. Interestingly, this concert took place before Tool solidified their distinct style associated with later works like 'Aenima.' The intensity of the show is palpable, showcasing not just their technical abilities but also their unique approach to art and performance, which would soon become their hallmark. This live set is a testament to the band's commitment to pushing creative boundaries from the very beginning.
