I couldn't stand the wait anymore so I decided to give it a listen. It kicks all kinds of ass. That is all.

Hah! I got it May 1st in NZ, which means I got it like 40 hours before you. :p I didn't get it, but a friend did, and I've listened to it through about twice. It's pretty sweet - I like it. I liked Lateralus too, and they feel similar at times, but that's a good thing. :)Quote:

It came out earlier than all those dates in aus :s Anyway, it is awessome and a real satisfying hit for people who have been waiting with baited breath. Not as good as Aenima in my opinion but up there with Lateralus and songs like Vicarious and Jambi show off more of the technical off beat side to the guitar and drums which is <3. Maynard is amazing as always and alot of new singing styles which are a treat to listen to. Rosetta stoned and The Pot are two that come to mind.
Overall a really good album and just what a fan would hope for and expect from tool.

I ordered this album last week off CD-wow and it stil hasn't come!! I'm really looking forward to it arriving...
Downloaded it. Excellent album.
If you haven't read the lyrics yet you must do it now.
Yeah, especially Rosetta Stoned. Possibly the strangest lyrics I have ever read/listenend to in a song, but still great stuff.
That last england show on the tour list is unconfirmed. It's just a rumour/guess from the people on toolarmy. They had better come to Australia.
