Synopsis

Salival is a limited edition box set in CD/VHS and CD/DVD formats released in 2000 by Tool. It includes a 56-page book of photos and stills from their music videos. As the box set has now been out of print for some time, it can only be found secondhand, usually at a price disproportionate to its original recommended retail price. As VHS has now become all but obsolete, the DVD version tends to retail for a higher price as it is in higher demand.

Ramzi Furman There isn't anything by tool that I don't like and if you have only heard a song once or only seen a video once; listen or watch again. each time you experience this band it gets better and better. I love a lot of bands very much but very few bands have been able to make me feel as if music had a physical texture that I could feel. From rhythm blending between instrument to unimaginable time signatures in this style of music, It just make me want to proclaim my love for this band from the roof tops. I know it is a little off topic considering I'm not addressing the actual title "salival" which I own but that is because my point to all of this is that the band used the box set to really give there fans something that they knew they would love. The live push it track is one of the most amazing live songs I have ever heard and then I was even blessed enough to hear that version in person. I was ear banged by TOOL and I wanted more. You know you have something special when a concert is so amazing that it feels surreal. The reason I am writing this kind of review is because TOOL actually changed my life from how I interact with the world to how I perceive it. I really feel like if I had never found this band that I would not be the person I am today. So, If you are some one out there who doesn't feel much emotion when you listen to TOOL or watch their videos; listen or watch again. It will pull you in like an undertow. I am a more confident person because of this band. Thank you TOOL.
subliminalhoney This set is cool not only does it come with a great CD filled with live performances: different rendition of "Pushit", Message to Harry Manback 2, a cover of "No Quarter" from Led Zeppelin, the video contains really cool puppetry/claymation type freaky material. Very cool. The videos for some of their biggest singles are on the DVD/VHS, if anything buy it at least for the cool packaging and the cryptic material.
ron_72180 When I heard Tool was making a box set back in 2000 I was psyched. They are my favorite band and I needed a fixing since their new CD wasnt due out for almost another year. The videos are among the best ever made and its a shame that too sensitive mommys and daddys got them pulled from MTV. They are dark, brooding, but incredible. The CD rocks as well. Great live tunes and covers that made this box set so worth it. The only other box set that I feel lives up to this is Metallica's Live Shit set. It gave you the most for your money. If youre into Tool and do not have this set yet, do yourself a favor and buy it now. Get the DVD version because there is a music video on that that is not on the VHS edition.
Demonamongu Salival, so named because the many fans of this truly awesome band have been waiting for it so long. Tool has been pleasing fans for 11 years this year, since 1992's Opiate E.P. Tool has definitly proved that they are an evolutionary band. This pre-Lateralus era set of Tool music videos and the cd contain support that fact. Only a few times before has a band proved to be so diverse with lyrics and music (David Bowie and Pink Floyd come to mind immediatly off hand, along with some others.)The DVD includes videos for Hush, Prison Sex, Sober, Aenima, and Stinkfist. The VHS has all of the above with the exception of Hush. The videos are all very well done and very well presented with the tradition enigmatic Tool style. Sitting down and watching music videos has never been this much fun and enlightening. With Maynard James Keenan's vivid vocals, Paul D'Amour's magnificent bass playing, Adam Jones on guitar, and the truly demi god-like Danny Carey on drums, this band is one of those band you didnt know was needed until it came about.Onto the actual videos. While cryptic the videos all contain keys to the meaning of the videos. And almost all of the videos are in claymation :)(the exception is Opiate's Hush.) The live cd contains some covers and some stuff live. Third Eye w/ Tim Leary (god of acid trips) is truly phenomenal. The CD ends with a recording from the LA Municiple Court and a hidden track. The hidden track alone is worth the cost of the set. This set does the Tool community justice and I encourage everyone to check it out. 10/10
