Fifty-one months after Lateralus' original release in CD format, Tool is ready to release a double vinyl four-picture disc edition of Lateralus. Each side contains a different picture and is packaged in a plastic gatefold with a holographic foil. Sony. 2005.The materials used to create picture discs and color vinyl are not the same as traditional vinyl. Picture discs will have an inherent surface noise in playback. Picture discs will generally not have the same sound quality as black vinyl. Also LPs require cleaning prior to each play due to the mid 20th century mechanical technology that LPs are.

Prog Metal Masterpiece
I've never listened to Tool before this album, and I can't believe I've been missing out on this genius for so long. I typically listen more to 70s prog bands such as Rush or Pink Floyd, so I wasn't aware of Tool until a friend recommended I check out this album. I was not disappointed! Each of the main epics on this album are meticulously composed with masterful lyrics (though I wasn't a fan of Leeches much, but I know others like it). This album also has some of the most creative packaging I have seen in a CD, with a clear plastic insert that allows you to peel back layers of the guy on the cover. Overall, and awesome package!

One of the all-time great albums
One of the greatest albums of all time in any genre. Even people who aren't naturally inclined to enjoy Tool are likely to love this album.

Un álbum destacado de esta banda, con la complejidad que la caracteriza
A pesar que en sonido, sin duda esta banda, alcanza el mejor nivel con "10.000 days" , esta producción no se queda atrás. Me gustaron varias canciones de este álbum, pero siento que también tengo que dedicarle más tiempo para descubrir sus sonidos, aunque por lo pronto lo veo como una producción más pareja y que libera gran energía. De todos modos para quienes no conocen a esta banda, sugiero primero adentrarse en la historia de la misma y entender su estilo musical y compositivo. Yo la descubrí hace poco y me atrapó

Art at its finest.
An excellent album. It looks much better when you get it in the mail then the image they use for the cover. Great for a long car ride with the kids.

Occasionally acts like a bastard.
Okay, so, this was an amazing buy. I love this album. But it tends to skip over bits of the song. I don't know why it does it. I cleaned the records, and it still does it. It happens very frequently throughout the songs.
