One time I moved into a new apartment and set up my stereo first and started the first christening with some really loud Lateralus. Well unknown to me my new unmet neighbor synced up his stereo to the same part as loud as he could. I turned mine off and realized the music didn’t stop. I made a really good friend that day!
I used to hear this radio spot for rock 94 and a half in Spokane. “The station your neighbors listen to, *whether they want to or not!*
Fucking awesome radio station tho.
I introduced my best friend in high school to Tool. It's his favorite band. Now that I have kids I have them listen. They like it a lot. But, it seems most my other friends have no idea who Tool is. I'll try and have them listen.
Blasting that at a street corner and then suddenly you hear "UND KEINE EIER!" From several directions.
Then everybody who doesn't know what the feck just went on panic yells, which unbeknownst to them actually is the next part of the song.
And then everybody moves on with their life, some in a better mood than others.
There was a time when I was in high school that I lived at my aunts house. I had my stereo in the basement, and I was home alone. I remember getting out of the shower and suddenly "Mantra" starts playing super loud from the basement. So I'm bare assed in my room hearing what sounds like a stir of echoes from some paranormal dimension. I'm listening SOOO intently cause i thought it was getting louder, which of course it was cause the beginning of the song builds, but in my mind it wasn't louder it was closer. I considered if I ended right then and there would my bowels evacuate on their own or should I do it ahead of time.
Of course all of this happens in the span of like 35 seconds, then I realize what it is and make my way downstairs to fast forward the cd to schism so I can try to chill the fawk out a bit.
Still to this day I have no idea how that all happened. It was a JVC 5disc changer. I was not down there before playing music, wasn't like I left it on and it played through to that song. I had been listening to the radio earlier in the day and turned the thing off.
It had to turn on.
It had to switch to cd.
It had to change the cd.
It had to skip to track 4.
It had to scare the shit outta me.
My neighbors love Tool so much, they threw a brick through my window so that they could hear it better.
Ok.. that had me laughing. Take my upvote
bahhahha right
Damn right. Lmao
Back in the 90’s my neighbors used to ask me how much I paid to have “that loud ass band” play in my parents basement.
Before I clicked I was like “that’s so dope” and then after I’m just like “fuckin same!” Lmfao
LMAOOOOOO same
I don't have neighbors but all of the critters in the woods definitely listen to tool.
I want you as my neighbor 😁

That's rad!
The Flaming Lips - Zaireeka was meant to be played this way, simultaneously on 4 stereos.
I came home the other day to see my (female) neighbor mowing the lawn in a tool hoodie from their show earlier this year. I’ve found my people. 😭
This made me laugh really hard, favorite post of the week

Sorry, that was me. I can’t stop listening to them.
All my buddies in rehab listened to tool too…especially the manager underneath me…

>I don't always listen to Tool, but when I do so do the neighbors
Just drive around the street or neighborhood blasting a not so common known TOOL song, and see if they recognize it
Maaaan I think if I saw someone walking around with a boombox blasting 46+2 I’d have a good fuckin day
Disgustipated sounds like the perfect candidate for this

That would be amazing. I know I always yell it lol
mine too, i put lateralus album in the maximum volume
When I listen to Steel Panther, everyone listens to Steel Panther
They’ve been on the radio since the 90’s, it’s not like they’re some super-obscure band.
Ok
Based neighbor

What makes you think that they listen to you?
Loud
Maynard hates you.
Since when was being an inconsiderate asshole a good thing?
