Do any of you know if and when this album will be released on vinyl? I hope so and hopefully they don't make it a picture disc.

It already has been released. I went to a store in my home town and they happened to have sold their only copy before I got there.

Oh well. I think you can still pick them up on eBay new.

Is it mastered without the clipping of the CD version?

yea, there were some bass clipping issues on the cd version, I wasn't terribly impressed by the mastering.

Are you sure the 10,000 Days vinyl has been released? I can't find any info on it at toolshed.down.net or in any net store or ebay.

Yeah, I second what JWFokker said because I asked at a couple of local stores about this and they said 10000 days isn't out on vinyl yet. Are you maybe thinking of the Lateralus vinyl?? Or maybe it just hasn't been released in the US yet.

I'm pretty sure. I definitely remember it on ebay, it was going for some absorbant amount of money.

If it hasn't been released at all yet then I think I need to go commit myself.

Lateralus came out on vinyl 8/23/05. I wouldn't expect to see 10,000 Days any time soon.

And since I'm not getting answers in the thread I started about it, has anyone had problems with their Lateralus LP? On mine, the acoustic instruments sound out of tune. I heard that the very first batch was bad, but it was also suggested my copy was pressed out of round. Anyone have a similar experience?

The clipping is pretty bad on the CD. I like the album but I've been driven away from it by the clipping.

I had heard that before the Lateralus lps were released, Tool released a small quantity that were autographed from their website. Those early versions with the autographs sell for nearly one thousand dollars and more sometimes. So maybe the 10000 days lp you saw on ebay could have been a similar release from the Tool site with autographs. At any rate, I hope to get this album on vinyl someday... I don't really care about the autograph part though.

I don't have Lateralus on vinyl so I can't comment on its sound quality. However, I do have Undertow on vinyl and it has certain parts that the instruments sound distorted like you are describing. I wonder if it's just a result of the cheap pressing.

That's strange. I'd heard the Undertow and Aenima LPs sounded great because they were recorded in analog and were pressed from the analog master. The newer albums were recorded digitally and then converted to analog (still better than CD format though), so they don't sound quite as good as the older albums.

It seems that tool used more compression on 10,000 days. Guess they gave into the whole volume race. I blame it on not working with dave botrell, botrell (production) and bob ludwig (for mastering) was the way to go for tool cds IMHO

Not to throw the thread off topic here but cotton money actually. And I'm surprised you have never heard someone say that before, it is like one were to say that it "soaks up" a lot of money from your wallet. Maybe its just a maritime thing that we say, but I am sure someone from the maritimes will come on and say correct me.
