The band has released eight music videos but made personal appearances in only the first two, which the band states is to prevent people from "latching onto the personalities involved rather than listening to the music."<ref name="much" /> With the exception of "[[Hush (Tool song)|Hush]]" and "[[Vicarious (Tool song)|Vicarious]]" all of Tool's music videos feature [[stop motion|stop motion animation]] to some extent. The videos are created primarily by Adam Jones, often in collaboration with artists such as [[Chet Zar]],<ref name="LiveDesign" /> [[Alex Grey]],<ref name="LiveDesign" /> and Osseus Labyrint.<ref name="Blake March 2007" />

The "[[Sober (Tool song)|Sober]]" music video in particular attracted much attention. Jones explained that it does not contain a storyline, but that his intentions were to summon personal emotions with its imagery.<ref name="Jones a Master of Many Trades" /> ''Rolling Stone'' described this imagery as "evil little men dwell in a dark dungeon with meat coursing through pipes in the wall" and called it a "groundbreaking", "epic" clip.<ref name="soberencephale" /> ''Billboard'' voted it "Best Video by a New Artist".<ref name="Jones a Master of Many Trades" />

The video for "[[Vicarious (song)|Vicarious]]" was released on DVD on December 18, 2007.<ref name="Blake October 2007" /> The video is the first by Tool to be produced entirely through the use of [[Computer-generated imagery|CGI]].
