Tool

In March 1995, Tool was riding high on the wave of their groundbreaking album "Undertow," which had made a significant impact since its release in 1993. This live performance at the Grand Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles captures the essence of the band's raw energy during this pivotal phase. With tracks like "Pushit" and "Sober" on the setlist, you can feel the crowd's fervor and the band's intensity as they showcase their blend of complex rhythms and thought-provoking lyrics. It's interesting to note that around this time, Tool began to establish themselves not just as a band, but as a force of nature in the alt-metal scene. The performance reflects a moment where they were transitioning from underground acclaim to widespread recognition, paving the way for their future innovations in music and visual art.
