Surprised this hasn't been posted yet, kind of low hanging fruit but it is one of the best covers ever

I know this is an album art forum but damn I love TOOLs music.
This album for sure has the best art booklet of any CD I've ever own.
Here I go listening to Tool again.

btw this cover is made by Alex Grey if anyone want to see more of his art
- Have you seen the booklet? I guess you have.
  
  For anyone else who hasn't,
  
  The booklet is about 8 clear plastic pages with layers, so as you open each page it shows a lower layer.
  
  It's really freakin cool.
  
  Aw yeah it really is amazing! Alex Grey and Tool go together perfectly
- Such a big fan of Alex Grey's work. Highly recommend checking out his book, Net of Being
- Same artist who did the art work for 'DMT: the spirt molecule' right ?
  
  Yes it is! According to a friend who has experience with DMT Alex Grey visualizes the experience perfectly
As a complete album, Lateralus is one of my favourite things to listen to. It's kind of amazing.
- Definitely, I'm a big fan of albums that just flow as one.
