Not just my opinion but more of an objective ranking

Lateralus should be 4th

switch 10,000 Days & Fear Inoculum, and you have yourself a more accurate ranking desu

Are these those mythical $200,000 audio cables?

Haven't listened to Fear Inoculum yet. Been too busy. I plan on listening tomorrow. What am I in for, lads?

My ranking of their other albums

Aenima > Lateralus >>> 10,000 Days = Undertow = Salival >>> Opiate

pretty weak sauce, its kinda like they wanted another aenima but forgot that the skits that made it unique dont really work when you have pristeen mixing

Only $80k for the monoprice version

We have similar tastes, except, Undertow would be third/close second in my ranking. That said, can't stop listening. Hated FI when it came out, but since hearing the album complete, I cannot stop.

Hated=felt disappointed...the track sounds like Tool, but wasn't jaw dropping; too much anticipation

$200k a foot

underrated post

I used to be to read audiophile sites/reviews when i was a super poorfag and there was this forum some guy went on and claimed he was a disabled WWII vet who's grandson heard some music on his older low quality system with pretty decent speakers. He asked for some suggestions on gear to get for his grandkid, so they could "enjoy the music" together; he claimed he was on SS and couldn't afford much. Long story short, all these boomers started sending him ridiculous esoteric gear based on his troll...he updated with the stuff he had received which had to have been close to $100k if not more...dude made out LOL

Music scientist here, interesting hearing some laymen weigh in, some of you are close.
Aenima>Lateralus>FI>10k Days>Undertow>Opiate

Oh, I seem to remember him being wheelchair bound and the kid having some health issue...like cancer or something really pushing the troll aspect

Why does a lot of people seem to dislike Undertow? It's a solidly great album, with what I consider essential Tool

same could be said about FI and 10k days

No one dislikes it, it just doesn't really carry the same weight as the others. I think it drags a little in the middle, like Crawl Away and Swamp Song are ok but aren't able to compete with the material on the following albums.

>the fucking USPS hat
this guy is on levels of irony I could never fathom

It's too low-brow for these crystal-wearing tarot card readers

It's cause he was on the USPS biking team before he got banned for doping dipshit

>FI>10k Days
Is it really?

Not OP but I think 10k was the 'divider' for a lot of tool fans, when it came out. You either hate it or love it, i think the same thing is happening with FI

Aenima is like random songs thrown into an album, and all of them are aggressive.
Lateralus is a more cohesive whole, covering a greater span of emotions - peaceful, angry, entranced, introspective.
