It may look pretty real since it´s from Alex Grey´s piece of "art". Also, it was used on Lateralus tour. Also, it would look like shit on the cover of an album. Why? Because it looks shit even on my computer screen. Why? Because the image fucking sucks. Why? Because Alex Grey doesn´t always draw neat pics like on Lateralus cover. Why? Because he is such a stupid fucking bitch ass.

Don't forget that Lateralus is nothing special with just the cover. We've got to see the whole object.
That being said, I was expecting something more different. It's really close to Lateralus. The new logo is cool.

Alex Grey? Looks similar in theme to Lateralus...
Sorry to be an asshole like the rest of the non-believers, but I don't think it is real. It seems to be poor quality. For example, I'd imagine part of the beauty of an image like this (like Grey's Interbeing) is the symmetry of the whole thing. If you look at this picture, you will see it is not symmetric (look at the eyebrows and the orientation of the "third eye"). It may be because I am not taking in the rest of the artwork package that I think it is poor quality, but that image, stand alone, is shitty in my opinion.

there's something about this i dont buy. during the interviews, TOOL said that this album is heavier and 'more political' and such -- then we had the 'official' tracklist -- then this artwork. When you take the messages portrayed by the interviews, combine that with the tracklistings, then combine this artworks , they just don't mesh. i can't explain it -- the feeling i have is hard to put into words, but the track titles and the 'hard sound' just don't seem to go with alex grey's artwork. and, since tool is a 'whole experience', the lyrics, track titles, artwork, and sound all work together for a total experience and these, so far, don't seem to be working together.

Well, it pretty much is the same idea as in this backdrop and I don´t think they would recycle Lateralus era art to their Not-Lateralus II album. The pic itself is from a more recent AG painting. I don´t remember which thouhgh.

Maybe the album is closer to Lateralus than we think right now. It looks more like an evolution, a darker version of the backdrops, with different influences, than something really different.
