the alex grey-related shite is shit.
tool need to get the fuck away from that aesthetic.
it worked amazingly well for lateralus; now move on.
the beginning of the video, which seems a bit more reflective of adam jones mind/work, was really amazing. much better quality than i expected, and totally convinces me tool should do a longform animated music video.

now i've got a lot of confidence in 3d's abilities to represent the more visceral nature of tool's aesthetic.
I agree with that. But I still think I wanted to see one more video with alex grey artwork. They have explored the Net of being in 3D, it looked good I thought. I guess I hope that after this one they move away from that aesthetic.

What about the three tentacled thingo... what was that?
