After last night, I'm gonna have to go with Lateralus, by far.

It's either Undertow or AEnima. I went AEnima, mostly because I used to date a girl who would throw it on as a makeout jam, and she was smoking hot.

After high school, Tool kind of lost it's appeal for me. But, Undertow.

Lateralus is my favorite, probably in part because I was always mostly into the progressive elements of the band.

Are you thinking of Judith, which is actually APC?

I voted for Ænima.

I think murkrow may have been thinking of "Sober." Doesn't Maynard sing about "Jesus" and "Mother Mary?" Either that, or murk is thinking of "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains.

I've got to agree there, though I think 10,000 Days either ties for first or comes in a close second. You've got to love a band that plays in 5 (Vicarious), 4 (The Pot), and even 11 (Right in Two)*, all in one CD.

* FYI, I'm talking time signature.

1. Ænima
2. Lateralus
3. 10,000 Days
4. Undertow
5. Fear Inoculum

Ænima is my favorite by far, but I understand why some would prefer Lateralus. I'm not very fond of the last two in my ranking.

The first three songs of Ænima and how they sound in succession are just perfection to me. "Eulogy" is my favorite Tool track:
