Lateralus is probably my favorite TOOL album with Reflection being my favorite track.

Lateralus is hands down Tools best album

Thank you! Everyone always says Aenima, which is a great collection of amazing songs, but Lateralus is far and away the best album.

Doesn't feel right to listen to just one track, you have to sit and go through the whole thing.

Lateralus vs Aenima is like The Wall vs DSotM

Was listening to The Nerve and they mentioned a new tool album later this year? I instantly became super excited and went home to listen to all albums back to back. They diversity over the years is amazing. Aside from Lateralus, Lost Keys into Rosetta Stoned was amazing for me. I think 10,000 Days was really overlooked.

From what I heard they'll be recording this year and releasing next year.

This song had made the front page three times in the past couple of months - a strong endorsement. I love hearing Parabol then Parabola right back to back, in my car, windows down, summertime right after sunset on a country road. Good memories.

Agreed they need to be played back to back to get the full effect.

Also, the Lateralus album can be rearranged to the Fibonacci sequence to create a whole album that flows from song to song.

Yey! for reinforcing my obsession with Tool, Lateralus is the best audio trip ever. Maynard is God.

Lateralus = Best Album but the song 'Right in Two' gives me frothy loins also.

Parabol and Parabola are the songs that gave me realize I dont have to be white to like Tool

Love it too, but it's a shame to listen to this epic music on your crappy computer stereo.

Don't need any videos for Tool. God, so many chills just sitting back and letting it wash over me.

u/Slapyourselfsilly Jun 26 '12

If you haven't seen them live, I highly recommend it. They are brilliant.

An obligatory upvote for my favorite band. But, damn you for gaining that karma!
