As always a Tool release is a seismic occurance! They have a very big expectation and they never fail to live up to it! This time round is no different, this cd is fantastic! Tool are fantastic! They deliver the goods this time round with just as much vigour and awe inspiring songwriting as last time!!

They still haven't lost thier penchant for 7 minute plus songs with mind boggling rythms, but the heaviness seems to be upped slightly this time round! The opening track Vicarious is heavy straight away after the guitar and bass intro. The track as a whole has a wonderful chorus with a fantastic interlude. It was the first single off of this album, however its just as good as the rest of the songs!

The next track Jambi is in 5/4 time signature, which is a common feature in this album. It is a very powerful intro, and the rest of the song transgresses through lots of proggy sections, building to an amazing outro section.

The next track Wings for Marie is the first part of the prog epic 10,000 Days. These two songs combined make up one of the highlights of the album, it is quite fantastic. The whole thing builds and builds and builds, and then launches into one of the most memorable Tool sections ever.

The Pot sounds like it could be another possible candidate for being a single. However dont let that deter you it is still a masterpiece in its own right. It has an unbelievably catchy chorus and and a brilliant bass line.

The next main song Rosetta stoned is another progressive masterpiece, worthy of recognition. It contains one of my favourite Tool moments.

The whole album doesn't let up. It is awe inspiring, this album will take weeks, maybe months even years to really sink but once it has it doesnt let go!

Good review, but i do not think it would be for me.

I love this album - especially Wings for Marie and 10,000 Days - I was surprised that Tool could outdo Lateralus, but they did...
