Looks like the rumours were true…

My friends, we can no longer hide the terrible truth. The holidays are rapidly approaching, and with them the NEW TOOL DVD/VIDEO for VICARIOUS is scheduled to be released on DECEMBER 18th (or 19th) and will include an EXTENDED CUT, lots of BONUS MATERIAL and, of course, SPECIAL PACKAGING. Here’s a sneak preview of a working still.
The working still shows as that the video is CGI as promised, at least partially. Who wants to have a guess as to what the bonus material will be. More Lustmord remixes? Commentries? Live videos?
And what’s this about an extended cut. A longer version of the video than the one to be release to MTV? Or an even longer version of Vicarious?
I’m sure more details will come in the next month.
Maybe the bonus stuff will be live…Oh wait the fans would enjoy that to much so I Doubt any live footage will be on it.
I have become “giddy.” Then again, I always become “giddy” when it comes to Tool releases. Hopefully this won’t be another let-down.
Now that it’s out, who was your source that gave you this information?
“And what’s this about an extended cut. A longer version of the video than the one to be release to MTV? Or an even longer version of Vicarious?”
The extended cut will include the pick scraping prison sex intro that adam plays before vicarious live.
From an Alexgrey.com email:
“Adam Jones, the lead guitar and filmmaker of TOOL has been working with Alex Grey on Vicarious, the first music video from TOOL’s 10,000 Days album. Scheduled for release shortly before Christmas 2007, the video features Jone’s signature surreal and dark dream vision blended with Grey’s glimpses into a brighter world. Stay tuned for release dates and pre-release screenings.”
I don’t like how Tool makes videos only for the singles… They should make a video for each song on the album, or just make videos for ones they’d like to, besides just ALWAYS FOR THE SINGLES. I mean, if I think about it, I can see why, but it still somehow bothers me.
