My it has been a few years since this album has came out, and since then, the world of music has never been the same. This album made kids like me realize what real music was, and back then I was only 11 years old and I loved my grunge rock bands like AIC, Pearl Jam, Blind Melon (may not be grunge, but I loved them regardless). This is what music really truly should be. It is music in its finest form, one that cant be replicated, not even by Tool themselves! Face it, Lateralis was a phenominal album, but it came up short to Aenima, in my opinion.
