19 Years Ago: Tool- Anemia

On Oct. 1, 1996 (Sept. 17 on vinyl), Tool unleashed one of their career-defining albums, Ænima, an essential release for the golden age of ’90s alternative rock. Before Ænima went on to sell more than 3 million copies in the U.S. alone, Tool were known primarily has a hard rock band with a penchant for heavy grooves, expressing anger and exploring dark subject matter. With the introduction of Ænima, however, prior psychedelic nuance became a full-on trip while songs became longer and increasingly dense.

Very good read on this incredible album. This album is an essential album to my collection and a GOAT album. Tool fans will enjoy this article

To this day, no band sounds quite like Tool. Furthermore, no Tool album sounds quite like Ænima. It’s an enigma never to be replicated, the blueprint pieced together by the hand of nature and hidden away after the fact. Brilliant from beginning to end, Tool’s Ænima remains just as relevant, fresh and celebrated as it was in 1996.

Tool is one of those bands I LOVED in high school/early college but have listened to less and less as I've gotten older. Not that I don't like them per se but they are definitely overrated by some.

great album. I feel old

You telling me.
I remember getting this as the 'featured selection'(BMG) when I was in 7th grade. At the time Tool was the song Sober to me. I threw this on and Stinkfist had me hooked. If only I could realize what that band could go on to mean at that time.
WOW

My thoughts exactly.

I didn't start listening to Tool until about 12 years ago, so it seems younger.

this is the last tool album that I liked

Why not do this thread next year?
19 years isn't a milestone. 20 years is. Poor form, IMO.

Anemia is my personal favorite all time album, by any artist or band, period. I've listened to it thousands and thousands of times, and still do.
19 years, and to this day, almost every single time I put it on, I hear something in the music I'd never heard before. It's this amazing gift that just keeps on giving.

Well the article came out... I agree on the poor form I just want a new TOOL album so badly personally.
Posted on 10/5/15 at 11:03 am to JohnZeroQ
fricking love this album.
Happy to say I've seen every song from it performed live at least once.
