10,000 DAYS

What this album does right, it does very rarely. When it actually picks up, and allows the musicians to play, thats when its good. But so many boring, and tedious songs are like huge canyons you have to get across to find the little stream of water that is the good music. Considering this is my first time with a Tool cd, im very dissapointed. VERY. I hope that on my next try with Tool, it will be much better, so that i may see what people see in Tool.

Id like to quote Kosakj1 for something he said on his review of this album, because it pretty much sums up my feelings as well:

"It should be called 10,000 years because that 's how long the album felt while listening to it."

Well put.

edit: I've seen the light (or maybe the dark?), and it is Lateralus. Thank sweet Jesus I didn't quit on Tool because of this musical abortion.
