Tool

By March 2014, Tool had not released a new studio album since 2006, with '10,000 Days' being their last offering. However, they were still riding high on the success of their earlier work, with a reputation for intense live performances. This particular concert at the historic Bill Graham Civic Auditorium was part of a sold-out two-day stay in San Francisco, showcasing their passionate fanbase. Interestingly, Tool's music often incorporates complex themes, and 'Stinkfist', the song performed in this recording, dives deep into issues of emotional connection and sensory overload, leading to a fascinating interpretation during live shows. The band's ability to create immersive experiences is legendary, and this performance was no exception, reaffirming their status as one of alternative metal's most influential acts.
