Everyone prefers Aenima.

I think you should give this E.P another listen, and try not to compare it to the other Tool albums because after Opiate it's just a massive rollercoaster ride of progression and experimentation, and if you're trying to find that sort of brilliance on Opiate, it's not there. Opiate has other quality's. Quality's that built a strong basis for Tool to work off of.

Listen to this album for the anger, the way Tool give it to you, and the lyrics that are profoundly non PC.

Damn, as I write this I begin to wish I'd rated it higher.
