I think the one I mentioned is Vicarious.

I'm not sure, but isn't Parabola the most recognized of the three?

I'd say Schism is, since it actually managed to chart on Billboard's Hot 100. At 67, but that might as well be #3 for a Prog Metal band.

And it won a Grammy.

Personally, I would consider Parabol/Parabola the best of the songs featured, though, and wholly reject darkwinterbeast's categorization of Lateralus - it's really the only Tool album worth listening to in its entirety.

Okay, guess I'm not alone, then.

I don't think rap is everyone's cup of tea around here, but Asaad is really, really good.

I don't even get why everyone hates chillwave, I thought Neon Indian, Toro Y Moi, and Washed out were all the **** back when they first released their debuts. Granted they've all morphed into something different, but I dunno, I don't get when or why it became uncool to like "chillwave" (other than that maybe the name could be dumb to people?)

Backlash is nothing new, but in the Internet age it can happen in record time. I imagine it just comes with the territory of rapidly shifting culture and a mostly young audience.

I haven't gotten around to the new Toro Y Moi album, but based on the one song I have heard I'm definitely uneasy about his shift away from chillwave (though I never felt he fit into the category very cleanly to begin with).

I still jam the hell out of that Neon Indian debut in the car at night.

I like A Perfect Circle and Puscifer more than TOOL.
