Whole Foods isn’t exactly the type of store you’d expect to hear anything heavy, but here we are. According to on Redditor that works at Whole Foods, their store began playing Tool‘s “Forty Six & 2” at some point and one lady got pretty annoyed. Who knows if this story is true or not – the employee’s reply feels a little calculated, or at least edited – but customers can also be a pain in the ass. So who knows.
“I work at Whole Foods, where we play an admirably ecclectic array of music. On any given day you’ll hear reggae, rock, country, pop, new wave, indie, and yes, the ocassional ‘heavy’ tune. Today ’46&2′ came on and a middle-aged woman approached me with an upset look on her face. She said ‘What is this? The world is too angry for such angry music. I don’t think it should be played in a supermarket. Who enjoys this?’
“To which I replied, ‘Oh this is a band called Tool, they’re pretty talented and their singer is misunderstood. They actually have plenty of positive messages in their music. You just have to look past the yelling and read the lyrics. But if you’d like to address your concern I’d be happy to show you the customer service counter.’ To that she paused and then smiled and just said ‘well I just don’t think you should be playing death metal in a grocery store.”
Tool has a bunch of dates coming up, none of which are at any Whole Foods. Get your tickets here.
