Additional InformationLong-Awaited LP Finds the Enigmatic Prog-Metal Outfit Older, Wiser, and at the Peak of Their Craft.
Reviews3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The music takes its time. 'Pneuma' has a pulse that suggests the measured rhythm of yogic breathing: a snaking, vaguely Arabic synth tone appears, then slithers off; heavy metal crescendos and feedback-glazed diminuendos rise and fall like abstracted Led Zeppelin.", 5 stars out of 5 -- "The Los Angeles progressive group's first album in 13 years is, at times, a languid and blissful work – one that will richly reward future listens.", "The songwriting is thick with imagery, long solos, sounds created by instruments that no one else really uses, ambiguous lyrics and constantly changing time signatures that will catch you tapping along out of time, even if you have perfect rhythm.", "Tool’s first album in 13 years is completely deserving of your undivided attention, the clearest route from your head to your heart."
