13 Best Songs You Can't Play On Spotify

11. Lateralus - Tool

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tcW-j7KFgY If you do go on Spotify right now and search for Tool, you will find a result. Unfortunately for metal fans, that artist only has one album available - 'Return of the Gold' - meaning that most - and the best - of the band's music is unstreamable. Additionally, a quick Google search ironically comes up with more results of the band defending against people upset that they are not a metal band than it does information about their music. 'Lateralus' is without question one of the best Tool songs released, and some websites have even gone on to say that it is "the greatest metal song released so far in the 21st century". The song switches between three different time signatures, with each member of the band taking lead at different points, and is inspired by the Fibonacci sequence. That's something for musicians, math geeks and Dan Brown fans all at once. But not for Spotify fans.
