Too bad Tool didn't have the benefit of decent songwriting.
Well, that's comparing apples to plutonium. Super subjective. Lars Ulrich's lack of virtuosity on the drums isn't really up for discussion - if you want to trot out the argument that Metallica had some great songs on some great albums in the 1980s? Absolutely. I even like Load and Reload (which puts me, somewhat, in the minority).
Call me when Tool puts out some shite like St. Anger, baw.

Sure it is. In fact, he was criticized for being TOO pyrotechnic on AJFA.
I don't even see why this has to be an argument over "virtuosity". I think, e.g., that Vinnie Paul is almost certainly his technical superior. That doesn't mean Lars wasn't perfect for what Metallica were (and would have bee imperfect for what Pantera were.)

Call me when Tool has as many albums as Metallica. I'm happy to admit the flaws of St. Anger - and the biggest one was the SOUND of the drums. But that is almost entirely irrelevant to your over-the-top putting down of Lars.
