The word 'Up' has many meanings, but basically it is the antonym of down. It is also the title of an awesome movie released in 2009 which should have won the Best Picture Oscar it was nominated for, but that's beside the point. It also happens to be the title of a series of documentaries which are among the most critically-acclaimed documentaries of all time, but that's also beside the point.

You'd think reading all those comments that Soft Bulletin was bound to win.

And then it turns out that there were lots of people who voted for Lateralus, but didn't comment.

🙁

Yes we do. But I can't drive one in this country without taking a course. So now I have finally signed up for it to happen in May. Sad part is they're ripping me off. I have to pay $20 for it and still have to bring my own jacket, gloves and boots (they provide the bike and a helmet).

I take it you voted for Tool?

Mmm, how did that feeeeel? Placing a vote down for tool, at long last? Did it feel good? I bet it felt good.

What are my eyes retarded? no I didn't vote for the Tool cover - are you joking? are you? I nominated The Soft Bulletin because I think that cover is beautiful - and I do. The day I vote for anything related to Tool I want you you to stomp on my face Ryan Gosling in "Drive" style. You got that?

To be honest, I find most of Alex Grey's art to be fucking ipecac for eyeballs.

(Example 1:)

Buuuuuuuut I find his Lateralus and 10,000 Days covers to be pretty good, even if the man is still entirely incapable of understanding how to use colours that don't induce projectile vomiting.

I'm also just not that crazy about the Soft Bulletin cover. I think it's probably one of their weaker album covers, if anything.

I actually much prefer cover of Aenima than Lateralus. I know that this one has a lot more going on, but I actually often dislike that, I generally prefer the covers to be somewhat "minimalistic" in nature...

I think I'll go with Soft Bulletin here

Loveless, You will never be Loveless - as long as I'm around.
