I can't decide.
A black liquid was seeping uncontrollably from my mouth
and all I could do was babble incomprehensibly
about a dream I had many moons ago.
In it, a clock ticked constantly, maddening my senses.

10,000 Days > BWP > Deadwing 

If BWP was replaced by MAYH, Still Life or Ghost reveries Opeth would have gotten my vote though.
BWP is good, but I don't really get all the love for it. It sounds much more cold and dull than most of Opeth's other stuff to me. 
10,000 Days is pretty good though. Not Tool's best but definitely has some incredible moments.

Definitely BWP. If it was against Lataralus I'd have a tougher decision...

Haven't heard Blackwater (can you believe that?!)Shocked About the other two, I prefer Deadwing though personally I think 10K Days is the best Tool had done.

Blackwater Park, then Deadwing, and 10,000 Days in a distant third place.

Would you like some Bailey's?

Not choosing DEADwing or the best DEATH metal band?

You're a bad death, Mr. Seventh Seal!

I voted Opeth. 10,000 days wasn't that great in my opinion.

If the Tool album would have been Aenema, then I would have voted for Tool hands down.  I would say Opeth takes this one for me.

Went for Deadwing slightly over BWP, although this was a hard one.
