tiredchildren Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Which version of Aenima should I be looking for? I see tons of various colors of 2-LP versions, and every once in a while a single LP version will pop up. I'm not looking for rarity or anything, I just want a version that will sound good and I don't want to have to pay a crap ton of money for it.

planetrakis Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 OG is the best. AFA the boots, i would try to find the 180g GREY YELLOW version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannibal Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 There were two official Issues, both on Black vinyl and both are VERY expensive. ALL the colored copies are bootlegs. I have a bootleg and it sounds fine, but honestly, I would just go for the CD of both Aenima and Lateralus, unless you must have vinyl.

andi Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 i have the green version ... sound's not that good. but OPs are way tooooo expensive!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I wouldn't waste my money on a boot. Just listen to the CD. If they finally figure out a way to repress this officially, I'll be all over it but until then, I'm not throwing $200-$400 on this album to have an official copy. Its funny because I just had a dream about this album last night and I was offering my friend $100 for his copy (he doesn't have one in reality).

thischarmingman Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I have a copy of the yellow bootleg and I thin kit sounds fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukebileforever Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Saw an OG on craigslist like a year ago for $100, guy had it when I asked about it but I was low on funds. Probably should have bought that. .... Ya ya I know, cool story bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfiend Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I have a copy of the yellow bootleg and I thin kit sounds fine. Same here. I heard all the Aenima bootlegs sound like shit but I took a chance and I'm happy with the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawker31 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 These new pressings are bootlegs? Damn, I had bought one from my record store last month or so. What's the story behind this? How do bootlegs get sold in stores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almightyseancore Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 a friend of mine had a pretty great record collection, including this, but his junkie ex wife broke into his house and stole every record she thought was worth money (stupid shit like dark side of the moon, she had no idea what she was doing) she sold them to a local shop, and probably didn't even get $20 for the whole stack.

magnumtaurus Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Bought the yellow boot a few weeks ago and can't complain about the quality for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawker31 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I just e-mailed the record store about them selling these bootlegs in store. I would like to know if they knew this before having it on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theinkd Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 the store probably knows, Tool bootlegs have been around for a long time and i've seen them in a bunch of shops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannibal Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Yeah, I agree, it doesn't sound bad, but at best it's the CD pressed on vinyl, not to mention a bootleg. I would not have bOught mine had I known. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
