regardless of how juvenile the like "oh you should be high to enjoy this" angle is, I just don't get how you can say Rosetta Stoned, The Pot and Wings are aren't all unique things. also;

"except so much more work went into making those songs."
is there a documentary on the making of the albums i missed?

This guy. Calls me juvenile for calling Tool out as a pothead band, then immediately names two songs that blatantly make drug references... in their titles! Boy, you sure made me look foolish. *facepalms*

Also, as someone who casually likes the band, if you played those three (or four) songs for me in, say, one month... I wouldn't be able to tell you which was which. In fact, if you played all three in a row I'm not sure I'd be able to identify when one ends and the next begins.

If they legitimately put as much work into this album as the others I named I would be dumbfounded. This album feels like they had learned over the years what elements of their past songs were popular with their fans and just stuck really close to those few elements.
