Pretty sure Tool makes fun of their own fans. There's no way they can't.

Picking what album to start with depends what genre you favor - for more straightforward, aggressive metal, the earlier the album, the heavier. The albums get increasingly progressive and esoteric, with Aenima and Lateralus having the most noticeable elements of both. If you can listen to mostly filled out 80 minute CD in one sitting, the albums are best listened to in the intended sequence (which the band has not gone on record to my knowledge to verify the legitimacy of an alternative Lateralus track listing).
