I've only just got into Tool, picked up Aenima and Lateralus about two weeks before 10,000 Days was released, then got the leak and bought the new album.
While I like what I hear, I think it all sounds very similar.

I don't think it should be discussed anymore under the topic "New Tool Album Sucks Ass"
DISRESPECT of an original masterpiece
I don't think the new album is very good either. I would have been disappointed if it came out a year after lateralus, let alone 5.
I think it's really good - The first two tunes rock
3 & 4 are very intense and I like where it ends up
5 is great - I love his voice on that one and it's got a great groove
Then it starts to get a little strange, but Right in Two brings it back strong
It's not the greatest album but I would disagree with the Title Thread Very Strongly
Untill their will grows tired
I disagree that it is not complex, because there is a lot going on with these tunes, and they are EPIC. 10,000 Days the song is mindblowing, and very emotional at its core, given its context.
How can you not get into 'The Pot' or 'Right in Two'??? Those are some classic sounding Tool rockers. It's not as 'radio friendly' as Aenima or Lateralus, but it is certainly a progression. Lateralus was very complex, but also fairly accessible to non-Tool fans. 10,000 Days takes it a step further, but isn't as catchy on first listen. It is the type of art that needs time to appreciate. But once you get into it, it is extremely fulfilling. I didn't like it upon first or even second listen, but now I feel like I was a complete fool. This album very powerful.
Unfortunately, many people have a short attention span in this culture, and will dismiss this album far too early.

I'll admit that with all the great new music out right now I've only listened to 10,000 days 3 times all the way through, I'm just still not impresssed. I'll give it a couple more spins this weekend. Your argument is fairly persuasive.
That's why music is a very subjective artform.

hahahah you kids crack me up.
I know what you mean. This album really seems to discredit their "it takes 5 years to progress" motto, when explaining the years between albums. There is not much on this cd that they havent already done, and alotta rehashed ideas. I like some of the ideas in the new songs more than old ones, but 5 years is way too long to wait for 10k Days.
I think alotta Tool fans are lying about what they think of it. Itsa solid album, but to say it ranks with any of their past work is ridiculous. The songs are good, but the segueways are so pointless it makes my head hurt.
*In best Beavis and Butthead voice* You mean theres an army of tools about huh huh, huh huh cool.
I felt the same way you did after the first few listens, but trust me, once it clicks, you wont regret it.
I think the album ranks right up there along with Aenima and Lateralus, but that's just my opinion. I think it's easily better than Undertow though. Their worst effort or not, the album is still easily better than almost any album released recently.
How would a persons opinion be a lie? I like 10KD as much as Aenima at least, but nothing can top Lateralus...probably because that's my all time favorite album.
The majority of Tool's internet fans hated the album when they heard the leak, but once they picked up the album at the store, and realized that it was the real deal, they loved it. There are still people that think its some sort of decoy.

hahah just popped it in!!.....the first song is amazing!
Yeah that's true, but I liked the album a lot even before it came out.
Yep, a lot of them tried to pass it off as fake even.
PEACE

tool has written some stuff that is in fact genius...
the old songs will always have a place in me. but i don't really care about tool anymore..
it seems like 'sober' is turning just as cheesy as 'enter sandman'
lol!
