    13 years. what's one more week. I'll wait till it starts to download thursday night. 
    Where did you pre-order?  I went with Google Play since it was cheaper & higher bitrate.  Do they auto download?

    I'm waiting till Friday arvo. Have a couple of cousins who are Tool freaks as well so we're going to one's house with some Panhead XPA, some Hell Pizza and a kickarse stereo system. Though it could be a shambles as we're all gloriously old school and don't stream plus our iTunes is screwed LOL. Free Spotify should be fine if we download it shouldn't it? 😂😂😂

    Light one for me. Going to wait till Friday night. Don’t wanna listen at work. I only wear one AirPod at a time and wanna be able to concentrate on what is going to happen. Plus I will be stoned. Edibles and vape pen for me. 
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.

    Currently on Listen #3. What I'll say about Tool is that they're unique to me because of their blend of sophisticated heavy metal, tribal sounds, innovation, and primal energy. For the most part, I miss the primal energy on this latest effort.

    Edit: And then there's Tempest. Stunning.

    I'm totally going to be like Renton in Trainspotting, having rehabbed then his mates make him try the heroin to make sure it's any good.

    My guess is halfway through Pneuma I'll be moaning "OH IT'S GOOD! IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD!"

    Hey Demetrios, are you a Prime member? I pre ordered from Amazon.ca but I am not a Prime member. I'm starting to think I won't get the CD unless I join Prime?

    I'm a prime member. Anyone can buy the CD. You don't have to be a Prime member. Being a Prime member I will get this CD in 2 business day's, free shipping. That's pretty much it.

    I know anyone can buy the CD. I'm worried I might not get it because I have pre ordered limited vinyl from amazon and not received it. When I called to find out why they never shipped my item, I was told that they ship to Prime members first, and that after shipping to Prime members there was no stock left.

    Oh wow! I didn't know about that. 

    The CD is still available for pre order. Hasn't sold out yet so you should be good.

    So, as we approach release day, the last album on my weekly album listen is Undertow.  And what I've discovered is... it's been a loooooooong fucking time since I listened to Undertow.  How long, you say?  Well, I completely forgot about Hank appearing on Bottom! That's how long.
    Tool has really come a long way since the beginning.  I love Undertow, don't get me wrong, but this album isn't quite as deep, technical, or introspective as albums to follow.  But it still is all those things and I love it.  I really enjoy the brevity and simplicity as it lends me to see just how much they've grown over the years.  They're unconventional, challenging, and thought-provoking with their music. For the lack of a bettter word, Undertow is like the juvenile that someone believed in and pushed them to do even bigger, better things. (Channeling my inner-Saban here.) And they became one of the biggest hard rock/metal/whatever you wanna call them bands in the world. I compare my views, ideals, and thoughts around 1993 and see where I am now, and it's sort of a congruent growth. It's like watching a child maturing into a strong, unapologetic adult.  It's part of the reason I saved it for the last week of my 4 week lead-in.  Compare the oldest to the newest as both are fresh in the mind and ear to really see how they've progressed.
    I took Friday off.  Looking forward to midnight!!!

    Also, who else is awesome enough to do this?
