Derek™ Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 You just have to take the "normal" price of the item and add a zero. $15 CD? $150 Tool CD. $25 LP? $250 Tool LP. Easy and accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefoxUSSR Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I'd rather see them break up. I used to LOVE this band, but it's clear they have been just going through the motions for many, many years. We should start a kickstarter. It's called "Pay to Break up TOOL and get a free shit". 10-option 1 - get a lithograph of the court document that formally dissolves TOOL, no music because we know you have a copy already. 30-option 2 - get the above and an animated bluray package with all TOOL audio and video ever released & unreleased ever. 100-option 3 - get the above and a 10 LP vinyl box set with all albums including: Opiate, Undertow, Aenima, Salival, Lateralus, 10 000 Days, Tales from the Dark Side, Demos for all albums. Not limited. 400-option 4 - Autographed bottle of wine from Maynard, which is in all probability partially containing his piss. Not limited.

jhulud Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 So this showed up today. It's overall a pretty kick-ass packing. All hand-made and screened from the looks of it. Must've been a bitch to put together and pack by hand. Worth the price?...Eh...the jury is still out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadDonut Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 So I'm a little confused..this was just a reissue on cd? All the pictures I've seen don't have any record/records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 ^Yes, CD only. I'm curious as to what the prizes are for those 'gold seal' things that are randomly inserted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negavinyl Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 So they made Opiate look like Lateralus/10,000 Days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefoxUSSR Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 those are cool looking. 600dpi scans please! Hey do you all think this AEnima test pressing is fake? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tool-Aenima-2LP-Test-Pressing-SS-/151031279107?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item232a2a6e03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 This band has been phoning it in for almost two decades knowing their fan base will buy whatever "limited" merch they put out there. They are a goddamn joke. $150 for a cd? They should come with a little note that says "Congratulations, you've just been fucked by Tool. LOLS." I rarely say that anyone is stupid for buying something, but anyone buying this needs to re-evaluate their spending habits. What limited merch have they put out in the last 10 years besides these $150 CDs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn't a 'Classic Records' reissue of Aenima. Also, I don't understand all his test pressings being factory sealed as test pressings are never sealed. Something just doesn't seem right about that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valve Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Probably a test pressing of the bootleg LOL When Classic Records were still operational I asked Michael Hobson if there was any chance they'd do Tool and Smahing Pumpkins. He said no to both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnx Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Back on the topic of the test pressing. The very first pressing of Aenima was released Sept 17, 1996. Under zoo entertainment. This test pressing exist and is numbered on the back of a normal Aenima jacket . It did not come in a white sleeve. Interesting fact is Aenima release dat was Oct 1st 1996, on compact disc. Weird but true. There was a second pressing done on Dec 31st , 1996 by RTI Records. The label on the back of this jacket says Zoo Entertainment/BMG. (The retail copy ) This test pressing did come in white die cut sleeves and yes it was sealed. Now the classic records auction above was something done in 2001, 200 g remastered vinyl. For some reason it was never released. Original these copies sold for $400 online. What you see above is test pressing by classic records. pressed but never was released. It was discovered when they liquidated. Another company purchased classic records. I am not a expert on the history of classic records however I am on Tool merchandise . Hope I helped a few people . I signed up to this site just to type this message lol. SPIRAL out! andi, TFP, valve and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikizee Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I have a test pressing of the second RTI press, manufactured on 30 dec 1996. Sealed in white die cut sleeves. I can post pics if you like. I bought this copy from the same ebay seller, themusic, in around 2005 or so. Maybe 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikizee Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 That's one hell of a thread resurrection. Ha thanks- I was going through my record collection and found the test pressing again, and decided to google it to see if anyone else had mentioned it. When I bought it 10 years ago there was very little information about it online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
