The funny thing there is that he made A Perfect Circle as a side project. Tool is the first band.
As for the music not being your thing: If you haven't already, listen to a few songs. (Truely listen. As in ponder the lyrics.) One that I've had stuck in my head for the past few days is AEnima. It's the title track of an album that they dedicated to the comedian Bill Hicks. A quote of his (which the song is based upon.):
"Ahhh, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone...All the shitty shows are gone, all the idiots screaming in the fucking wind are dead, I love it...leaving nothing but a cool, beautiful serenity called Arizona Bay. That's right, when L.A. falls in the fucking ocean and is flushed away, all it will leave is Arizona Bay."
I'm gonna stop there as the way I was going, I might as well post their entire 10,000 Days album. Wonderful album....Vicarious, Jambi, Wings For Marie/10,000 Days, Rosetta Stoned, Right In Two....
Anywho, if it ain't your thing, then it ain't your thing. But I would definatly say to give 'em a chance as they've got some pretty powerful lyrics.

Of course he has great vocals. You really can't forget the sound of Chris's vocals. I mean I have trouble wondering the difference between Kotipelto and Kiske, but Bowes stands out.

oh of course ive tried out Tool before. The lyrics kick ass i have to admit it but i dont really like the sound. Dont get me wrong but it is just a matter of taste. It is just that i prefer listening to something else instead of Tool not that i dont respect them though.

In no order, except Top 3. (Obviously) 1.Bruce Dickinson - Iron Maiden: He's the man! 2.Warrel Dane - Nevermore: God, if ever there was one 3.Ronnie James Dio - DIO, Rainbow, Black Sabbath: He's just amazing, great vocalist
Marco Hietala - Nightwish, Tarot, Northern Kings: Simply AWESOME!
Johan Hegg - Amon Amarth: Do I really need to explain? Who else growl's are so awesome that you can hear what he's actually saying?
Cam Pipes - 3 Inches of Blood: Almost like Rob Halford, just MOAR awesome
Philip Anselmo - Pantera: Despite what people say about Pantera and how overrated they are, you can't deny that Anselmo has a great Metal singing voice
Jyrki 69 - The 69 Eyes: Sure, not epic, but I like his voice, and their songs are catchy
Howard Jones - Killswitch Engage: One of the few bearable Metalcore bands, Howard has an awesome voice
Joacim Cans - Hammerfall: Need I say anything? >>> ZP
There's others which I can't be bothered to name at the moment I'll make a little addendum to this list later.
