You seem a bit surprised by this. Tool has always been one of the few bands that sound better live than their studio versions.

Your friend is right and I don't care what anyone else says. I've been listening to the songs over and and over again and it just keeps getting better.

I agree. I'm binge listening to it this weekend, and it keeps getting better. This is how I felt about Aenima.

It's like old Tool, collides with new Tool. They go through their entire era and they take a little bit of sound from each album and roll it into one.

I'm certainly no music buff and I don't know how else to describe it but to me it's fukin genius.

Just my opinion.

Wow, I've seen them in concert once and it was truly awful. Sound levels were completely fukd, took me a couple minutes to even realise they were playing vicarious it was that bad. I saw Rammstein at the same concert and they were amazing.

Pneuma is fast becoming a favorite for me on this album.

I have to say for myself that 'Descending' & '7empst' are my top two of the 10+ minute songs. I would've thought I would have fatigue from hearing the live version of 'Descending' so many times but the melody is great especially on the heavier riffs, the harmonizing guitars, solos, and the gong! Danny is so meticulous on the drum set though the album. I was put off initially by the opening track because it sounded like rehashed drumming, but I think its just how he incorporates electronic pads than anything else.

Fear Inoculum sounds even better on the radio. Taking me back to when there was an actual metal scene and concert-going made me feel alive.

Overall it's a good album, maybe some of us has better expectations/hype about this but for me it was worth the wait.

It sounds a lot more restrained and grown up than the other albums which I like. Definitely has a 'do more with less' feel to it.

I'm pleased there has been some evolution in how they sound, the early release title track had me worried since so many sections sounded very similar to previous songs.

Both these made me very worried too, thank god this has not gone the same way.

Maybe it was the venue because I’ve seen them live close to 10 times and like most people will say, they are one of the few bands that sound incredible live.

The only caveat is that Maynard’s voice has been used and abused for nearly 30 years, so you won’t hear him belting out lyrics in certain songs like he used to.

I guess my first listen was just to take in what it is.

Now I can appreciate it and I’ve been listening to all the songs on repeat.

Also, these started getting posted all around the downtown area here

I can't wait to see them live. I saw them 2 years ago and their concert was even better than it was when I first saw them in 1998.

Love the new album. Only gribe is that Invincible goes on for too long. Been a tool fan since my mate gave me a CD called Aenima back in the 90s.

I really like the album, but Adam Jones can only go so far with the same riffs. Tom Morello works around the same area on the guitar (open to fret 5 with Drop D tuning) and gets way more variety out of his riffs.

I don't know where Tool can go from here, you can only write so many riffs when you only use 5 notes and this album shows it. Like it's really good, but it feels very recycled.

Did anyone notice that "descending" into about 1:50 in sound almost identical to their song Push it from the TOOL salival album?

1:20 listen for about a minute of it
