On Fridays we change things up to connect you with some great music.

When I first heard this song by Tool, something about it made me feel OK for liking hard rock/metal music like this. Since then, Tool has felt like the antidote to Nickelback. (Although to be fair, they’re kind of the “Yes” of the metal scene.) This performance caught my eye for the novelty, but the kids really do the song justice. I appreciate any music school where they track live in a great sounding studio, mix and master the track, etc.

In case you missed it, here’s the original.
