Tool – Undertow Outtakes 1992 – VINYL

Pre-Undertow Tool, caught near the raw Opiate-to-Undertow jump before Sober pushed the band wider.

Before Tool became a whole ecosystem of sacred geometry, and dudes explaining time signatures in record store checkout lines, they were a mean Los Angeles band with a lot of tension and very little polish. Undertow Outtakes 1992 digs into that early stretch, when the sound was still closer to bruising alt-metal, noise rock, and post-hardcore than the sprawling prog-metal world they would later build. Raw, heavy, and useful for anyone who wants more from the Opiate / Undertow era without pretending this stuff was meant to be tidy.
