Which is the better Tool<\/a> album – Aenima<\/em> or Lateralus<\/em>? That’s the debate at the center of this week’s Chuck’s Fight Club on the Loudwire Nights radio show? These two heavy heavyweights will duke it out throughout the week with you ultimately crowning a champion.<\/p>\n Aenima,\u00a0<\/em>Tool’s second album, arrived in 1996 and quickly continued the ascent previously launched by the Undertow<\/em> album. The songs “Stinkfist,” “H.” and the title track were all released as singles, while “Forty Six & Two” might well be the most popular song off the record. This epic 15-track album peaked at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart and solidified their legacy and stature as one of the emerging bands of the ’90s.<\/p>\n READ MORE:<\/strong> The Best Epic Song By 11 Big Prog Metal Bands<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Five years would pass before the group returned with Lateralus<\/em>, their third studio album. With great anticipation, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart while yielding the singles “Schism,” “Parabola” and the title track over 2001 and the early portion of 2002. The 13-song album has gone on to be certified triple-platinum and has become an essential record in their history.<\/p>\n As with all Chuck’s Fight Club battles, Loudwire Nights<\/em> host Chuck Armstrong will introduce the battle on Monday’s airing in the 8PM hour.
