    Masterpiece! Production at the highest possible level! Wonderful instrumentality selectivity! And the music ... atmospheric, multi-faceted, original ... I love this album and I know that I won't be able to pull it out of my CD player for a long time !!!

      Don't understand the different releases at all. Mine has the German Yellow 6 sticker on the front but the 9 sided shape on the back.What version is that ? Cracking Album though.

        The other day I went to my friend Babish Patel’s house, and he was playing this album when I arrived (I did not know what it actually was at that point). When Babish saw me tapping my foot in time to the groovy, progressive metal beats, he asked me “What’s your favorite Tool?” to which I replied, after a few seconds thought, “a hammer”. Well, Babish immediately fell about laughing hysterically, and when he had managed to compose himself enough to explain the reason for his mirth, I fell about laughing hysterically too, which set Babish off again. What a misunderstanding!!

          The only question that I have in my mind now is: when the battery of the screen will goes to end her charge cicles and die, how to remove?

            To me, simply the best album on earth. Unprecedented musicianship. Astonishing!
            Production gets credits too... Amazing on every aspects!

              I hardly buy CD´s anymore, but fortunately Tool gives me a great reason to buy the CD version. Great package. And above that: the album is mindblowing, with great clean production.

                Does anyone know if the EU version has three different variants like the US version? Aside from the front and back stickers the EU version looks identical to US version 1. Thanks in advance.

                  I can't find the charging cable in the European version. Where is this supposed to be hidden?

                    I wonder how many of these were made. How limited is limited? I can see that the shops in Sweden have mostly sold out. The shop I bought my copy from doesn't even list the album at all now. Great album though albeit typical Tool.

                      It sounds like someone dropped something on a tiled floor and then attempted to mix it into something listenable. 5 stars.
