An incredibly executed and moving masterpiece from, in my opinion, one of the centuries most prominent and socially relevant forces in modern music.
beneath this albums moving guitar melodies, the syncopated and powerful drum beats, the sub-melodic style of the bass, lies an album that should not be excused from any music perusers' collection.
must buy.

This is a fantastic cd by a realy powerfull and moving band. Tool strive to create their own genre, and this cd really shows it. A highlght of this cd is the song Stinkfist. Awesome guitar riffs, hard drumming and dominating bass playing really outline how great this band is. I think that this is their best cd. They are also an amazing live act.

There is little more than can be said about this album except that it is an iconic album of the 90's heavy metal scene. Tool have used their own unique style and sound to make music that is truly powerful and original. Its one of those albums that you're not too sure about at first, until a couple of listens later you're listening to it all the time.
Its very deep and emotional music that only Tool have managed to express. They are all talented musicians, Maynard's voice is especially magnificent.
If you want heavy metal music that is more emotional and intelligent than most of the head-banging "I'm angry" heavy music out there, Tool will not disappoint. A true league of their own.

I don't know what it is about this album that makes fans worsip it so much (10,000 days is by far their best) but a lot of the tracks on this album annoy me (especially the likes of "Intermission" and "Useful Idiot). This is tools heaviest album though, and one or two songs are definately something you have to listen to before you die. Worth getting, but it doesn't deserve the praise so much people give it. This was their 3rd album released after Opiate, they went into a more progressive direction on this one. The best song on here is 3rd Eye, something about the end with palm muted chugging and Maynard screaming out "PRYING OPEN MY THIRD EYE" gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.

This is Tool's third album and only develops on their previous release, Undertow. Aenima starts off strong with Stinkfist and finishes with the epic Third Eye, a fourteen minute masterpiece. Also on the cd are the rock classic Eulogy, the stick it to you Hooker with a penis, and the brilliant tracks 46 & 2, Pushit, and H. the cover picture is amazing. The song Third eye and the inner booklet both salute Bill Hicks. While each album tool has released has had a slightly different style all are brilliant, and are all quintessential albums for the rock fan.

This album is quite possibly the best album of all time. This conceptually brilliant album take the listener on a journey through the warped mind of Tool.
Maynard Keenan delivers haunting lyrics to the rhythmic backbeat and disturbing guitars.
Everyone who listens to this album should try listening to the album with headphones in the dark for a psychosomatic thrill of another dimension.
Best album I own.

Depends on your taste, but if you are feeling a little deep and moody this album will mirror your mood. Quite a talented bunch this lot... just wish that they would put it to good use. This album is quite sombre, odd and emotional. Not sure what I make of it in the end. Possibly too encouraging of the "what if?".....

This c.d is where tool start to use a lot of there messed up sort-of filler songs but are good for a laugh. aenima has two of the big titles that they created videos for which a are a hit even with people unfamiliar with tool's music. 'Pushit' and 'third eye' sit at the 10 minute mark for song length but contain some of the best guitar solos on the c.d.

Is this what happens when you get the bastard child of say, Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath?
Take said youngling, subject to a bit of deprivation, lock it up in the back of a circus for a year, give it a few kicks up the arse, speed it up a bit then tell it to go out and rock?
Odd, but in a very good way.
