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. Review: Tool with music and stereophonic art. Glasses incorporated. - Stereophonic inside and out. Epic album. Great presentation. Review: Influential album - A masterpiece and the vinyl is a work of art

Sick artwork
Looks fantastic. As far as sound quality goes, I prefer not to hear pops and crackles in my music, so I listen to CDs. But to hang on the wall? Oh yeah.

One of the top albums.
All Tool.

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!

Amazing album, amazing art
This is such a cool album. The Alex Grey art on each side of the vinyls is worth the price alone. The music is amazing. The only reason I give it 4 stars is that due to the art, the grooves in the vinyl are quite shallow and the printing is not quite centered so it flanges a bit when playing. But it’s a collectors piece nonetheless.

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

Riacquistato dopo tanti anni perché avevo perso il CD originale, comprato quando uscì l'album nel 2001. Questo Lateralus è probabilmente il loro vertice pur all'interno di una discografia di elevatissimo livello artistico. Il percorso di blues acido e potente iniziato con Opiate, continuato in parte con Undertow e poi abbandonato con Aenima in favore di un progressive metal aggiornato agli anni 2000, qui raggiunge un apice non più quagliato con 10000 Days e Fear Inoculum. Possiamo parlare di un post progressive metal con interessanti influenze primordiali, ora di ritmica tribale ora di rituale religioso, comunque sia di musica ricondotta a usanze antichissime. Insomma ambizioni artistiche altissime e risultato in gran parte raggiunto, con la forma canzone qui stravolta in composizioni molto lunghe e articolare, potenti e compiute. Un album da ascoltare per uscire dal piattume e mediocrità della proposta musicale attuale.

Awesome album - it rocks

El álbum en sí es un masterpiece. Hablando específicamente del artículo, el empaque, el arte, el picture disc, todo es hermoso, pero es una lástima que como ya muchos han mencionado, ambas ediciones que han lanzado de este vinilo son bastante malas, en el tema de que tiene mucho skipping, aunque se escucha bastante bien, al menos las partes donde no se salta jaja. PS: Excelente servicio en la entrega por parte de Amazon, llegó al día siguiente que lo pedí.

Um capricho, bem embalado, com encarte holográfico, sensacional!

Es un vinilo precioso, un poco caro pero tiene muy buenas canciones y calidad en la grabación. Merece la pena comprarlo.
