Their Fifth Studio Album Fear Inoculum Was Released On August 30 2019 To Widespread Critical Acclaim. Prior To Its Release The Band Had Sold More Than 13 Million Albums In The US Alone. Due To Tool's Incorporation Of Visual Arts And Very Long And Complex Releases The Band Is Generally Described As A Style-Transcending Act And Part Of Progressive Rock Psychedelic Rock And Art Rock. The Relationship Between The Band And Today's Music Industry Is Ambivalent At Times Marked By Censorship And The Band's Insistence On Privacy. There Is A Raging Debate About Whether Tool Can Be Considered "post-Metal" Or Not. However They Surely Had A Hand In Its Creation As Much As Neurosis. The Influential Act Isis Was Heavily Influenced By Tool's Music So Much That They Lifted Entire Basslines And Guitar Riffing From Tool And Even Their Iconic Snare Sound Was Inspired By Tool's Style. Much Has Been Made Of Both Isis And Tool's Sound And Influence Across The Years But One Thing Is Sure Modern Post-Metal Has Their Fingerprints Everywhere And It Would Not Have Sounded This Way Without Them. Additionally Tool Actually Was Aware Of And Liked Isis' Music As They Chose Isis As Touring Partners A Move That Brought Even More Attention To Isis' Music.
