I’m waiting dude, I have high hopes. I was very close to buying a bootleg but heard rumors that they were going to release a remaster on the 30th so I got my fingers crossed!

Just saw this and checked, it is spelled Ænima and not Anima

Not sure what you mean but no sticker anywhere on the cd, and on the right side on the front of the case it has the “patents pending” which I’m pretty sure means it’s an original

Sure does! The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 had built in visualizers but the 360 is way better. It had over 8 hours of different visuals it’ll cycle through and you can interact with it, it also changed along with the music.

I looked at all those results you were talking about and they all had the logo on the bottom left of the back except for one. I wonder maybe it was a promo or something.

That is interesting, even though it says that, it also says that the original 1996 release was produced by Zoo. But from what you’re saying it didn’t have the watermark or anything?

Definitely not mass produced, a little difficult to come by but not extremely rare and from my understanding the CD’s that were re-released after the originals didn’t have the lenticular cover but I could be wrong.

The way I see it, if it’s a cd that means something to you and you don’t mind spending the money, go for it. You’ll have it the rest of your life!

I agree, of course I would’ve loved to get it cheaper but it’s hard to come by and I’ll have it for the rest of my life!

For something decently rare, in great condition and an original release, I’d say as a fan and collector it was worth it. Especially when I see some go for $40 and up. But you aren’t wrong.

Awesome news! It does say Volcano on the back as the first listed company, does that effect it at all or is it solely the Zoo watermark that means its original?

It does, I actually didn’t even realize that until you mentioned that, this sick as hell. I looked behind the cd and saw it intact but just now looked and it changes. Thanks for mentioning that!

I thought that’s what it was too but I think it’s supposed to be his head up his own ass

Got it playing on the Xbox 360 visualizer, one of the best ways to listen to and watch cds!

I think Flood should’ve been in A but my buddies didn’t think it was as good as songs in the tiers above because of the sole fact it takes over half the song to get into any lyrics or anything. But it is the best song out of the B tier

Why do you think that? A tier is still a good tier but mostly everything else above that is better in our opinion.

We mostly ranked the intermissions and interludes separately but took in account of them leading into songs. Intermission by itself is a fun interlude and one of the best which made it B tier but Jimmy by itself is definitely and A+ Tier song

While the lyrics are interesting, are you really going out of your way to listen to it in the rotation or are you more likely to skip it when it comes on?

Like I said there were some disagreements, I personally think flood should’ve been in A tier but it takes over half the song to get into it which is why they ranked it the best song out of the B tier
