Pros: Captivating, dark, progressive... Maynard James Keenan's voice is something you'll have to hear to believe
Cons: Those looking for catchy songs about sunshine won't find it here
The Bottom Line: Swift changes in pace, excellent vocals, dark, angry, melodic, heavy... yeah, this is the stuff.

Pros: Philosophy, spirituality, humor, anger, power chords, and crazy time changes- all playing nicely together.
Cons: Everything they've done since this album seems to pale in comparison.
The Bottom Line: Takes the principles of 70's prog and 80's metal, then fashions them into something new and cutting-edge. One of the heaviest yet deepest rock albums of the past twenty years.

Pros: A cohesive, organic, intelligent album with musical and lyrical depth
Cons: It's dark as hell, challenging, and not readily accessible
The Bottom Line: Unquestionably a hallmark album of 1990s hard rock, with buckets of listening potential.

Pros: Calling it a thought provoking and cerebral masterpiece doesn't do it justice.
Cons: You can't have sex with sound waves.
The Bottom Line: Aenima is as challenging as it is rewarding as it is vulgar and silly. In other words, my all-time favorite album.

Pros: The fact that it's perfect.
Cons: Cons? Yeah right...
The Bottom Line: If I lost my copy and had to get a new one and it was being sold for $50, I would buy it in a heartbeat. It's that good.
