This is the best artwork I have ever seen from any band, at any time, ever.
Hats off to you, Tool.

Indeed. So far I am more impressed with the artwork than the album, and so far I have LOVED the album.

yay
bought the album about 4 hours ago....listened to it three times so far...
I find it amazing. I really enjoy the overall flow and tone of the album...
after the first listen, I really didn't know what to think. Durring the 2nd, everything really started to take form. The 3rd time around, I read the lyrics along with listening, and even more started to become apparent.
This is a 77 minue long fucking beast. I walked into this thinking nothing could top Lateralus...Im not saying either way yet (still way too early), but at the end of the day (not TOday), these will be neck and neck for the greatest album Ive ever heard.
Wings/10K Days, LK/RS and Right in Two are the standouts for me (and others obviously). Im amazed.

Yea, grabbed mine from Tower Records in Hollywood at about 12:05. I think it sounds much better than the leak did. Plus the tracks that are supposed to run together, do.

I just got back from Wallie World and they had plenty of copies. Only $9.78 so a little cheaper than Best Buy and others. It is NOT edited, sound much cleaner than the leak, not that I listened to it or anything. I freaking love this album, can't wait until next Monday when I see them live for the 6th time!

Just picked it up, I am very impressed with the artwork, very well done. Album sounds a ton better than the leak I heard previously. (BTW, anyone who is in the Manhattan, NY area, the virgin mega store in union sq. is giving out huge Tool stickers when you buy the album, i scored two, they're pretty big.. too big for a notebook. Its a black sticker with the new Tool logo across it).

YES!!!! So pleased I've got it. I was lucky enough to pick up my copy at the same time that I picked up my PC's new soundcard. Oh. My. God. I'm in music heaven right now.
Guys, congratulations for getting 10,000 Days....we finally made it!

...is a self-contradicting statement. It's almost as if you caught yourself confessing, and then changed your story in mid-sentence. "Yeah I was there last night - I mean, I don't know what you're talking about." I don't know how that works when you're typing, rather than speaking, but somehow, you pulled it off.
edit: Oh yeah, I'm liking the album a lot. It's *definitely* a lot to take in, but I'm pleased so far =D

Would you rather contradict yourself or incriminate yourself? Or maybe there was a knowing wink or nod hidden in there somewhere?

Okay... So I bought it this morning at Target at 8. And after listening to The Pot...call me stupid...but how the fuck could this have been recorded recently?? Maynard sounds *at least* ten years younger. I immediately recall Sweat, Opiate, and the like. What the fuck is going on?
