TOOL
–
10
000
Days
Those
who
feared
Tool
was
gone
forever
after
the
project
of some
its
key
members
(in
the
shape
of A
Perfect
Circle)
released
several
albums
and
DVDs,
can
rejoice.
Some
may
disagree,
but
in many
respects
Tool
is the
modern
alternative
rock
scene’s
Pink
Floyd
–
capturing
a dark
emotional
intensity,
displaying
musical
proficiency
and
never
neglecting
the
visual
in the
shadow
of their
audio
creations.
Their
display
of creativity,
passion,
and
often
trippy
moments
is unsurpassed.
Every
band
has
a pinnacle
album
in their
catalogue,
their
crowning
achievement
where
all
of the
elements
hit
their
marks
perfectly
(but
this
doesn’t
mean
any
other
releases
are
inferior,
not
by a
long
shot).
For
Tool
that
moment
of alignment
came
with
Aenima.
As with
that
album
and
Lateralus,
the
packaging
featured
a strong
visual
emphasis
(the
first
with
its
3D postcard
style
cover
and
the
latter’s
see-through
layers).
The
distinctive
look
and
design
across
all
of the
band’s
visual
elements
comes
from
band
member
Adam
Jones,
acting
as art
director.
With
10
000
Days
their
ocular
evolution
has
reached
a mind-blowing
peak
with
the
innovative
stereoscopic
cover
design
which
contains
built-in
lenses
with
which
to view
the
totally
three
dimensional
images
–
an event
on its
own.
And,
the
music
is as
vivid
an experience.
A Tool
album
is never
a frivolous
affair
and
this
is another
event
not
to be
missed.
