Quicksand - Manic Compression (1995)

Quicksand is the band Tool ripped off. More or less everything Tool does is an exact carbon copy of what Quicksand has already done (except Danny Carey's insane drumming technique), from the vocals to the chugging bass. The only thing Tool has that Quicksand doesn't (except Danny Carey's insane drumming technique) is moderate radio play on buttrock stations. Now, I'm not trying to discredit Tool, because I think they're great... but most of the time I'd rather listen to Quicksand. So maybe I am trying to discredit Tool. But that's neither here nor there (possibly here)... Walter, Quicksand's vocalist, fronted hardcore act Gorilla Biscuits pre-Quicksand and post-Quicksand, he went on to form Rival Schools, which is awesome. I might up some Rival Schools later.
