I guess I can see how you can say that if we compare 10,000 Days to the other albums, but how many times did you listen to it? Personally, with the lyrics taken into account, I do believe that 10,000 Days is the "Lateralus II." Sure, "The Pot" was not the most impressive song to debut their album with, but what about "Right in Two"? "Vicarious"? I liked Lateralus better, too, but it 10,000 Days has its share of brilliance.

Tool is intelligent music. Dummies don't get it. Sure, some intelligent people don't like it, but dummies just don't get it.

Can't wait to see them live! Summer tour dates to be announced... I hope they come to New Zealand!

LOL yeah, it would be fairly cool to see them live. they're easily one of my favorite bands.

I'm sure they won't be performing too far from where you are DM.

Definitely one of my favourites too. I can't get closure on them. Like, some bands and albums I'll get over when I know the lyrics and can finger-drum the sound haha but Tool, I discover something new everytime I listen to an album. I guess that's why I like them so much. They don't bore me.

Has anyone heard much of Puscifer? I've only heard a couple of tracks and... um... I'm undecided I guess.

I listened to V for Vagina a couple of times when it came out, and I can't say I was impressed. Maybe I need to listen to it again, but I don't see what the hype is.

I'd have to disagree with that in that I feel he's kind of overrated. No doubt, he has a damn good voice and even more so, great lyrics, but he's is too often mistaken as the mastermind of Tool. There is no ONE mastermind of Tool - the blatant talent, I feel, comes collectively as a band. I am more partial to Adam Jones.
