I also picked up the new CD. I've only listened to it once or twice(mainly because I've been sick and my CD player broke) but I really enjoy what I've heard. Like Steve, I've liked a few of the radio singles and none of the albums as a whole, so it was surprising that I'd even like this new CD. Coincidentally, my bro also picked up the new CD(this is the first PJ album he's picked up.....never was a fan either) and thoroughly enjoys it. I've seen how the CD has gotten very good reviews, which isn't surprising considering the quality of it. Impressive stuff.
As for Tool....I've never been a fan of theirs at all and so I didn't even consider picking up this new CD. But I guess its getting good reviews, eh?
