You put on Tool to go to sleep and wonder why you cannot sleep??

No, Slowpoke, Tool hasn't made an album in 14 years that won't bore you to sleep.

10,000 Days, for all it's criticism, contains Tool's most masterful song to date - Rosetta Stoned.
Any Tool fan who disagrees is either:
1) Unfamiliar with Rosetta Stoned
or...
2) Hopelessly lost in Tool's 1990s music catalogue unable to recognize masterful progression.
Honestly, I hope Rosetta Stoned is where Tool's "new sound" is heading on their upcoming album...whenever that will be released.

I take it back, there were 2 good songs on the album, which were drowned out by boring voyages through extreme pretentiousness.

I would definitely buy an album tagged as voyages through extreme pretentiousness

The entire album is ONE SONG
Track 1. Kick Drum
Track 2. Snare
Track 3. Cymbals
Track 4. Floor Toms
Track 5. Other Toms
Track 6. A Hobo Named Tom
Track 7. Bass Guitar
Track 8. Guitar layer 1
Track 9. Guitar layer 2
Track 10. Lead Vocals
Track 11. Backing Vocals
Track 12. Mumbling
Track 13. Didgeridoo
If you buy 13 copies of the album and play them simultaneously on 13 different stereos' right channels, it actually sounds like a complete song.

Progression? 10K days was the first album by Tool to not progress at all. Their previous 3 LP's were all pretty distinct from the other. New ground was paved. 10K days didn't have that feeling at all and felt like it was a rehash of lateralus.

Totally disagree. It's amazing that you can't see the progression on 10,000 Days.

I've always had the same feeling for the album overall; however, there were still some great tracks on it. "10,000 Days" the song is incredible, and it was something wholly unique to their catalog. Rosetta Stoned overall was a decent track, but they rehashed a lot of riffs from previous works. It's definitely my least favorite of their albums (Aenima is king), but it is still good overall. I agree though, it was somewhat unoriginal by their standards.

It's amazing that your love for tool has blinded you to not be able to see the lack of progression.
I listened to the hell out of 10K days when it came out, for close to a year probably. I liked it a lot, but something happened and it just didn't age well. I guess I realized that what drew me in initially was all the signature Tool sounds and not the substance of the music, or something like that. I missed the Tool sound so much that they could have released anything and I would have listened to the hell of it. That feeling eventually wore off.
ETA: I'm just busting your balls. Everyone has their own views on music and you know what you like.

I honestly haven't missed Tool one bit.
