I liked how Rosetta Stoned led up to a climax, like the song Lateralus, except totally different.... Not as rewarding, but still a great climax. Like someone said, it may have been better if they ended it after the climax. I'v never had an experience listening to a song like the first time I heard Lateralus from start to finish. The way it builds- just amazing.
I feel like Lateralus the album is somewhat of a concept album, even if it isn't. I may have said this before, but I feel like the album deals with spiritual themes, the soul, and other metaphysical-like ideas. I love that fuckin album. I don't think Tool can ever top it. I feel like they can't go any further mucsically, like Lateralus was the album everything led up to. I hope the do something more amazing and something you could never think of on their next one.
