While I, like every other Tool fan, always want more music, there would be no complaints from me if this was the final cap. This album is not only a master work in itself, but is a wonderful piece of the band's evolution and what they try to say. From the days of Opiate, where maynard was doing music just to get out his anger, to this: a look back at time and the evolving he's done, tackling demons, moving past fear, and writing a new story without these chains. Not many band's show a clear evolution, not just of the music but of the people, with each new record. Tool does, and thats why they're unrivaled. Buy this album.
