In May 2018, Tool performed 'Opiate' live during their set at Rock on the Range in Cleveland, showcasing their signature blend of progressive rock and heavy metal. At this stage of their career, Tool was gearing up for their long-awaited fifth studio album, which would eventually be titled 'Fear Inoculum,' released a year later. Before this performance, they had not toured extensively, with their last tour occurring in 2016, which adds a special layer to this live rendition. Fans were eager to see the band return to the stage, and the energy at Agora in Cleveland was palpable. Tool's music has always explored deep themes, creating a unique connection with their audience, and this performance was no exception. The intensity of 'Opiate' perfectly crystallized the band's ongoing journey, reminding listeners of the raw emotions and intricate musicianship that defines Tool.
