"Tool - opiate" on vinyl . . have i been ripped off?

[R B Customs]

Hey guys

im pretty new to the world of buying vinyl but i think ive been ripped off.

i bought a Tool album from a very well known online marketplace and when it turned up it was sealed in the sleeve with the correct cover, and correct stickers on the centres of the record.

the album 'opiate'' only has 6 tracks, and i can see 6 tracks ( 3 on each side ) on the record.

however... when i play it, it is a completly different album! all iof the tracks are from tools other album called ''undertow'' ( which is meant to have 10 tracks not 6 )
i jsut didnt have time to listen to all of the tracks to verify as it was quite late.


so what is going on here then ! im stumped, and as this is probobly the 3rd piece of vinyl ive ever bought for my self, im completly confused!

is this... a copy ? do copies exist?

cheers,
Rick

Could it be a promo for Undertow or something? Very stange. Also, tool tend to have interludes between tunes, which may mean there's no gap between 2 songs when this happens. I'm sure they'll be some tool anoraks who know exactly what you've got.

Tool ofter have tracks on their albums which are not really songs, but undertow is different.
in all honesty i havnt listened to the whole record, i just didn't have time since it was so late when i got home. i have identified 2 songs from side A as being from untertow, and one from side B as being from undertow

To be honest, i might hang onto this one because i prefer untertow to opiate!

ill check it out when i get home and find out the exact track listing and what is missing etc

He had a friend once who took some Ecstasy.... lol.

Weakest song on the album, i believe the live songs were done on a new years eve, man that would have been mega.

****** on my lighter, he though he was a fire engine
great stuff

i know opiate only has 6 tracks, and so does this record... i have listened to side A, and im about to listen to side B . . watch for an edit

ive listened to it all and it is indeed only the first 6 songs of 'undertow'

heres the pics of the acctual thing

should be able to see the tracks form those pics.

every reference i have seen undertow on vinyl has been all 10 songs on one disc :?

im confused and dont have a clue what this thing is... sounds great though !!
