5 Bands To Check Out If You Love Tool
1. Carneia
Returning to Belgium one last time for our final entrant, Carneia are possibly the closest you can get to finding a modern day incarnation of Tool.
Carneia present themselves through an atmospheric post-metal wall of sound, which is capitalised by distinct vocals and gravely basslines. In just a few short years, Carneia have become one of Belgium’s most promising underground acts thanks to their intense live shows and battering sound. Their tenacity and venom is represented on their records such as 2013’s ‘All Tongues of Babel’. This gritty album is possibly the heaviest material that has appeared under Carneia’s name, with more recent records sounding crisper and more cutting-edge.
The band’s most recent album is 2019’s ‘Voices of the Void’, which dominates the majority of their online streams, highlighting its success.
