Tool are a band from Los Angeles California. This section of Fourtheye contains all the latest Tool news and rumours.
I meant to mention before, that Blair also confirmed that the 2nd of May is the official release date.  50 Days to go. I’ve also updated the Signed Lateralus Vinyl Gallery.   Thanks to Ryan, The Betterfly and Stalkingbutler for their contributions. I’m still looking for more, and I know that another batch has been sent out recently, so if you’ve got one, make sure you get me the pics.
It seems all current cover “leaks” are fake. Well so Blair says on Toolband/Army. He also re-iterates the fact that the tracklisting is real and not fake. From the looks of the tracklisting, it would seem Tool had a bad weekend in Vegas and decided to write about….. I kinda liked the first one “cover” though. Anyway, keep the leaks coming, because I’ll keep printing the ones that at least… Read More »â€œLies are usually caused by undue fear of menâ€

According the Billboard: Rock act Tool will break a five-year silence on May 2 with its next album, “10,000 Days.” No other details have yet been revealed about the Volcano Records project, which is the follow-up to 2001’s “Lateralus.” That set debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 and has sold 2.3 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Blair posted on Toolband/Army that he spoke to Danny from Australia last night. The promo tour seems to be going well, and Danny is expected back in LA tomorrow. There were many interviews given, and Blair warned us that we should expect articles in Guitar World, Revolver and Modern Drummer, and no doubt there will be others.
mattw on Toolnavy has come up with the goods again, this time transcribing Andrew Haug from Triple J’s thoughts on the new CD. The stream of the show can be found here, apparently this review can be found at around the 58 minute mark. “Now something that people might think I have held out, but I might as well drop the bombshell now… I was privileged enough to hear the… Read More »Australian Listening Party
Kabir has posted on Toolshed that “A reliable source confirms that the title is ‘10,000 Days’”. For those who don’t know, Kabir is a friend of Maynard, and is usually very reliable. I know there’ll be plenty of doubters still, but as I’ve said before, I like it. The songs names I’m not so convinced with. I’ve heard it suggested that these are working titles, and possibly not the real… Read More »Kabir confirms 10,000 Days
