Ænima, Lateralus and 10,000 Days are all worth four stars. But, I believe Ænima > Lateralus > 10,000 Days.

A sub par guitarist , a singer with 2 octaves max , songs that all make one want to commit suicide without a hint of positivety , a blind fan base largely run by teenagers without direction in their lives, "Yes we know its nothing new its just a waist of time who cares about that silly tool who seem to decide prog rocks plan". I listened but once again I didn`t enjoy

I think it's about as good, but I totally need to listen to it more... I don't think it's grown on me enough yet.

Not as good. Lateralus is a Jewel; 10.000 days is a bit inferior. Plus, I heard somewhere that the next TOOL album was supposede to be a colaboration between Maynard and Reznor. I don't see it... that would be interesting.

I've not listened to it nearly enough to have a firm opinion, but it is very good so far.

Although all TOOL albums are exceptional, I think 10,000 Days is definately their most mature and emotional album to date. I love it more and more each time I listen to it!

It's just my thought, but i believe that 10,000 days is more than Lateralus... it has more of the dark-depressive sound atmosfere, more tense...

I like 10000 Days but I dont think its quite as good as Lateralus, but not far off.

i really think this album sucks and rips off a different tool idea from their previous catoluge in every new song.

Point taken, I just thought "comeback" sounded more dramatic than "return" .
So was there anyone who liked Lateralus but disliked 10,000 Days?

I loved it!!!
Wether I like it more than Lateralus,well I dont know.Each album has such qualities as to make you love them all on their own respected level.

Above I said "different" ... more specifically, I think it's a bit less progressive than Lateralus. I'm sure that many people expected another concept album, instead they made a mixed album with a very loose concept and really different moods and sounds. IMO that was a very good decision.

I connected with 10,000 better than Lateralus, so it gets a slight nudge.

I like it worse than Lateralus so far... but a solid effort nonetheless.

Different, but equally good as Lateralus.
BTW: I don't think it's a "comeback" ... they just took their time. Comeback would imply that they released some mediocre albums in between Lateralus and this one, which they did not.

Right now I think it is equal to Lateralus,but not better.It is very different from Lateralus though.
I have to listen to it some more,my opinion might change over time.

I've given it a couple of listens by now and cannot rank it among Lateralus...maybe because I've put Lateralus in a throne...The album is good but I can't say it's as good as the spiritual Lateralus....gees....can you guys believe that maybe these guys will make us wait 5 more years for their next release? Will I go crazy?
