Amazon.com:
With its heavy-duty distortion, weighty rhythms, and cynical lyrics, Tool is a heavy metal band for the '90s. Rather like Metallica circa ...And Justice for All, the sound is focused heavily on texture, with vocals and guitars layered one atop the other, and heart-pounding drums underlying everything. There's not a whole lot of variety on Tool's second full-length album--most of the songs start off fairly low-key, kicking into high gear for the chorus, and repeat--but Maynard James Keenan's distinctive voice, the prog-rock stylings over a heavy metal base, and a supremely unhealthy dose of vitriol make this the perfect album to bang your head to. --Genevieve Williams

- Why is this forgotten?
Stsrt to finish, this is fantastic piece of work. I put it up there with Stones (Sticky Fingers and Exile), Who (Who's Next), Zep (I, II, or IV). Not a bad track on the whole disk. A Landmark. We listen to this at work, and it is simply known as "The Album." Hey, Gus, what's next? I think I'll put on "The Album" again. Buy it.

- Amazing
Aenima is one of my favorite Tool albums. It's just too amazing to put into words.

- production masterpiece
The musical aspects of Ænima and the ritual "file under exercise**" have already been well-covered in the other reviews here. I'll cover an angle that I have never before read about this CD.

When mixing a record, it is common practice to bring in recordings of other songs, sounds, or whatever to use as references and / or "ear-cleaners".

This CD has become (for me at least) a Golden-Standard. The sound on it is SO well-produced that it serves as landmark; it not only sets a standard against which other works are measured, it is also like a lighthouse for those mixing new works. It helps one maintain or regain one's bearings in frequency-space.

** the comparison of one band to other bands such to allow those who know the music to market it to ... Read More

- Can't go wrong with Tool
This is the record that started me on my tool journey- I was hooked. I would certainly recommend Lateralus and 10,000 days for those who are just discovering this amazing band.

- "The Sound of a Thousand Dirt Bikes", "Monster Truck Tunes"
"What A Bloody Bore" I thought to myself and sent about fifteen pieces of hate drenched rubbish hurtling into the trash. Some obscure form of Redneck Entertainment also crossed my mind. On a lighter note, it's just so tasteless.
And this is coming from someone who can even handle the "Dead Kennedys." At least there is some humor and political sentiment. Gothic Metal Bands are a much more mindful alternative to this ceaseless tirade of grating noise.
If the music only matched the artwork that created the covers.
