Product Information

Note: These vinyls are hand signed by Alex Grey on the cover OR the upper side of the vinyl itself; original packaging comes opened.

On the downside while comparing editions, the new book release has only 7 tracks as opposed to 10 on the deluxe original, which admittedly are only short interludes but to me complete the record as a listening experience.

The most intense songs on the album are Pneuma and 7empest and they're half the intensity of anything else they've recorded previously. As far as the music is concerned, Chris Bellman has done a stupendous job mastering and mixing this album.

There is an EU release that credits Sony Music as a label and other differences of distribution listed on the small print of the sticker. The presentation and packaging is also done well, it’s almost like an art book, a little over the top but that's Tool.This package features five 180 Gram BLACK vinyl discs, with album tracks featured on Side A, and unique etchings featured on Side B. This package features five 180gm black vinyl discs, with album tracks featured on Side A, and unique etchings featured on Side B.

The official vinyl LP versions have 9 songs (they include 'Legion Inoculant' and 'Mockingbeat', which are not included on the CD) and are roughly 84 and a half minutes long. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.

Bonus features include insight and observation from special guests, and this Blu-ray disc comes in a special 46 page hardcover art book that includes behind the scenes and making of photos. Tool is a very visually driven band and I expected something a little more visually interesting to look at than what they chose for the album cover. Full glossy cover with 7-sided geometric pattern on back, points of pattern ends in 14 solid circles.
