Tool: Opiate2 (Limited Hardcover Blu-Ray Art Book)

$66.99

Tool have astounded fans over the years not just with their psychedelic prog metal but also their mind-expanding animated music videos — but it’s been 15 long years since the group offered up a new one. That drought is about to end: Tool are set to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut EP, 1992’s Opiate, with the official release of the extended version of its title track (which has become a live staple over the years) along with an accompanying short film. “Opiate2” will be available via DSPs on March 1st, with the Blu-ray only visual companion available on March 18th.

Visual artist Dominic Hailstone (Alien: Covenant, The Eel) worked with guitarist Adam Jones, himself a former VFX artist, on the 10-minute-plus video. Hailstone and Jones also collaborated on the filmed pieces featured on the band’s current Fear Inoculum tour.

The physical release features a Blu-ray housed in a 46-page art book with behind-the-scenes and making-of photos as well as interviews and insights from special guests. “Opiate2” pre-orders are available now.

Description

Opiate2 is a special limited edition package, that includes a reimagined and extended version of the TOOL classic track.

The song is presented on a Blu-ray DVD that features a ground breaking short film directed by Dominic Hailstone.

The song was originally released in 1992. TOOL have been performing this version of the song live on tour, but this is the first time the studio version of this song is available, along with a stunning visual in a commemorative package.
