Free Music Notes for Opiate
Free Music Review: Tool at its best
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great debut for an amazing band. Although (in my humble opinion) all their other albums cower compared to Aenema, this one still stands strong. Tool has been through many phases in their time here. Here's the way I see it...-Opiate - Hard, angry, "I've got something to say". Almost every band puts out a CD like this (Ex. "BadmotorFinger" by Soundgarden)
-Undertow- More thought out. The band starts evolving into what they have become today.
-Aenema- One of the best CD's I own...this CD has everything, mixing their anger with thought-provoking lyrics.
(skipping a CD)
-Lateralus- This CD takes some time but will grow on you. You can find little bits and peices of a song that sound like their old stuff.
Well thats it. This CD is worth your money and then some.

Opiate is Tool's first big release, and surprisingly, for them anyways, it is pretty acessible. The songs on here aren't half as long as those contained on "Lateralus" and "Aenima" but they still have that distinct Tool attitude. "Sweat" is a great opener, it has great lyrics and is really energetic. "Hush" is one of those really short tracks, clocking in at under 3 minutes. My favorite song on the whole CD would have to be the title track, "Opiate." I mean, who can forget the chorus? (Deaf and dumb and blind and born to follow/What you need is someone strong to guide you) You can't go wrong with the Opiate EP, it may only be 6 tracks long, but it is definetly a worthy buy. If you don't own it already, you need to get up and go to the music store right now and find yourself a copy.Free Music Review: great album

This EP is great. It may not represent Tool's deeper side, but this is their first. The people that say Tool fans are depressed teenagers that hate their life are just being stupid. My hair is not black, I don't have piercings or tattoos, and I've never attempted suicide. I just simply love the band. Also, to the Christians writing reviews..what the hell are you listening to Tool for??? Doesn't that go against your religion? Anyway, this album is a bit harder than the rest of them. It is still outstanding. Oh yeah, I don't like it just because it's Tool. I DO love everything Tool does but if another band came out with this album instead of Tool, I would still think it was awesome. I think it's very well put together and has a lot of meaning. Great album..a must buy if you love good music and especially if you love Tool like I do.Free Music Review: TOOL ROCKS

I now have all 3 of Tool's albums and this one was the last one I had to get. I must say that i am in no way disapointed with any of their albums...This CD is short...but awesome. I cannot decide which one of their CDs i like best. Opiate and Sweat are my favorites off OPIATE. All the songs are awesome. The drummer is very talented and like another reviewer said, his drumming goes with the song. Even I noticed that and I am not a drummer. The bass player is also very talented (even though they had a new one for Aenima...he's really good also). Maynard's voice plays such a huge part in making Tool's music sound so awesome and haunting. Of all the voices I've heard, I like his the most because of all the different emotion he puts into singing. Impressive 10 second scream in Opiate....Thats all I have to say.

Keep In Mind Opiate is not tool's debuet.... Officially Undertow Is The Debuet Because Ep's Are Debuets Only LP'S..... This came out first though. i know it's confusing but i dont make the rules.1. Sweat - A Beautiful Song To Introduece What's Coming From This Powerful Group
2. Hush - A Heave Song With Sense Of Humor And A Positive Message(Sensorship Is Bad)
3. Part Of Me - Probly The Easiest Song To Sing Along On This Album Very Hooky
4. Cold & Ugly - It's A Live Track From New Years Eve 91 Great Song short egnough to sing to and long egnough to enjoy
5. Jerk Off - It's A Live Track From New Years Eve 91 Very Angry Sac Religious Lyric's EXCELLANT
6a. Opiate - Best song on the Album and thats with all the competition on this cd
6b. Gaping Lotus Experiment*Bonus Track* - Hillarious...Hillarious
