on tool's site, it states that this is only a fraction of the cover, pert of a larger more complex picture.

Actually, it doesn't say that at all... It says "Album Mini" meaning that the picture is scaled down from the actual size, not cropped (Blair cleared it up). This picture is actually a small photo taken from a much larger painting by Alex Grey. If you look at the top of the album art from Toolband, some of the little galaxies weren't even painted in at the time that picture was taken... the painting was not complete (it is now). IMO, it would be extremely tacky of Tool to use a photoshop-saturated picture of an unfinished Alex Grey painting as an album cover. How can that be possible after the amazing Lateralus artwork? Also, theres a good chance that all the info we have been given is fake- before the release of Lateralus, Tool released a fake track list and album name "Systema Encaphale". And I find it rather hard to take track titles like "The Pot" and "Rosetta Stoned" seriously. The album title "10,000 Days" sounds too similar to Disturbed's "10,000 Fists"... Look at the new logo, it can easily be read as "Fool", as in April Fools. (Tool is known for elaborate AF jokes, such as the one where Maynard was quitting the band to dedicate his life to Jesus, every media outlet right up to MTV reported it) Also, one of the possibly fake tracklists leaked before had "23" as a track name, and now the official track listing has "Vigniti Tres" (latin for 23) as a track. Now what are the chances someone accidentally came up with that? I have a feeling they are either going to release the real name/listings/album art on April 1st, or hold this out until the album is leaked/released. Then again maybe I'm just dead wrong and Tool have completely lost their tastes. |

Tool (Fool?, heh I like that) have a track record of jerking the collective chain of its fan base, over and over again. Awesome. Everyone wants to be the first with the inside skinny, and the band knows how rabidly people will latch onto tossed tidbits of info. I for one will not believe anything about the new album until the case is in my hands, and the disc is in my player. |

I have stated in every Tool new album thread that while all of this stuff(album name,art,track lists)is interesting I will believe nothing until I have the cd in my hands. |

What the hell kind of cover is that, and why does everyone else like it? I'm so confused right now, am I missing something? |
