I think it's a shame, but yes they are overrated. The same thing that happened to Pink Floyd happened to them, on a smaller scope. Tool is an amazing band, but half the Tool fan base loves the band and doesn't even know why. This leads to a really elitist, outreaching group of snobby fans to claim Tool to be the greatest band in existence. In reality, I listen to Tool because they are great musicians. Their lyrics make no sense to me. Most of these Tool jock riders say the lyrics are creative genius, but I beg to differ.

Just my opinon

But to answer your quesiton, yes, I think Tool is wildly overrated!
