Binding: Audio CDBrand: TOOL EAN: 0828768199121 Label: Volcano Manufacturer: Volcano MPN: 828768199121 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Volcano Release Date: May 02, 2006 Studio: Volcano Editorial Review: Product Description: No Description Available Media Type: CD Artist: TOOL Title: 10000 DAYS Street Release Date: 05/02/2006 Genre: HEAVY METAL Amazon.com: With a majority of the songs on 10,000 Days clocking in well past the seven-minute mark, you wouldn't be entirely mistaken in thinking that the title of the album refers to how long it actually takes to make it through the whole thing. Two of the tracks--the sitar and tabla enhanced "10,000 Days (Wings Part 2)" and its suitably epic psych-rock sister "Rosetta Stoned"--even linger on for nearly a dozen leisurely minutes each. That's delightful news for the legion of Tool fans that have been waiting five years for the follow-up to 2001's Lateralus, which debuted at number one and sold 2.3 million copies in the United States. Singer Maynard James Keenan is back on mystical form after his hiatus with the politically slanted A Perfect Circle, sounding at once ethereal and eloquent as he calmly charges through the metal tempest of the opening track "Vicarious." The rest of the band, meanwhile, hits a series of high-flying moments with tracks such as "Jambi" and "The Pot." When Tool sounds as good as it does on these songs it's hard to get enough. Which makes it all the more baffling that a surprisingly large chunk of the disc is given over to mood-enhancing soundscapes like "Lost Keys" and "Vigniti Tres." Who has time for filler? --Aidin Vaziri Average Rating:
 Rating:  - What!? You guys don't worship this?I was very surprised that the overall opinion on this album was so negative. Because this is, not only the best Tool album (Lateralus is very close, I admit), it is also one of the best albums I've ever heard, hands down - and one of the albums I've heard the most times in my life. So many times I know every passage, every awesome bass chop, every drum fill down to the last detail (well, almost) - and yet I still haven't tired of it! If anything, it keeps getting better. I suppose I ... Read More Rating: - Introduction to ToolI wasn't a fan of Tool until I heard Vicariuos, Jambi, The Pot, and 10,000 days. But once I heard those, the other songs followed, as well as the other cds. Rating:  - GarbageBought because of high rating and positive reviews. Worst choice i could have made. I did not like it at all and got rid of it within two days. Rating: - If you like deep, introspective Tool, this is the best yet.Hands down, this is the best Tool album so far. The work is epic, and narrative and thematic elements weave their way through the entire album. Should definitely be listened to from beginning to end, in order. Production value is also highest on this album. Much clearer, punchier and polished than previous Tool albums. I bought this album for the song "The Pot", but it took me several weeks to get there, because I got stuck on the first track, "Vicarious". From there it ...
