Tool Fear Inoculum impressions


Who else thinks this is a masterpiece? Or, do you hate it? Your thoughts...

I will start to digest this new release over the weekend. 13 years is a long time between albums per se. Including the Band, we all are 13 years older as well. Fear Inoculum, could very well be the last TOOL album.  Prog? Metal? Hard Rock?

Happy Listening!
Been listening since the weekend to Tidal streamed version via Roon (4-5 times), until last night when I listened to the 96.0kHz/24bit version.  The improvement was obvious (although it was not HUGE, maybe 10-15% better) in the first 45 seconds.  Mostly it was in the realm of improved imaging, as each sound comes from a tighter apparent point source.
@jafant Yes, it's probably the last album.
BUT.........I was thinking, since it took so long, maybe they have more material that they recorded. 
Wouldn't it be great if they dropped a bomb a year from now with unreleased tracks? 
Hmmmm....

Remember, Danny Carey is 58 years old. The rest of the band ain't no spring chickens either. This could very well be the final record.

My buddy and I just bought our tickets for the Atlantic City show. Can't freaking wait.
Never seen Tool live but have caught APC live twice a few years back, they came to Rockville once.
Awesome sauce, I can only imagine how cool the live Tool show will be.
