Judith was my least favorite song on the album back when this first came out. It didnt surprise me it turned out to be the single. Though it did eventually grow on me. The Hollow and Sleeping Beauty were instant classics for me.

I might have to up my rating of this. The only tracks I don't really listen to are the kind of filler-ish two-minute tracks, Renholder and Over. I wish they would have recorded another actual song or two in place of those. They just seem a little pointless.

I agree. The filler tracks really bring it down. Idk what they were thinking with using Over as the album closer.

Oh yeah... This feels good as a 4.



Definitely, Mongi. Brena would have made a fine closer. If they would have made them more fleshed out instrumental tracks or something, that would have been pretty cool. It sucks they did it again on 13th Step too. Plus, I don't like that Nurse song either, so that's 3 skip able tracks on that one.

Funny there's not a single track I'd skip on TS. It's a masterpiece to me. Damn Gravity gives me the feels like Orestes.

The guitar solo in Magdalena is so simple yet so perfect. Billy Howerdel is an underrated guitarist

@Mongi: I love his voice, but here I think he goes a bit over the top and tries too hard to sound beautiful and emotional. I mean, he's Maynard James Keenan, his voice is amazing and powerful as is. I just feel he pushed it a little too much at moments

It's very good but quite inconsistent. Check Too Late, Forever Can Be, and The Sword. The best songs on it imo
