A couple in interesting clips featuring Maynard came across my desk today. The frist of which is a short documentary called Blood Into Wine. It is all about Maynard’s winery in Jerome, Arizona. Though short, it’s of great quality, and is quite interesting. Maynard needs to learn how to properly put on a beanie though…
The second video is a probably illegal grab of Maynards part in Crank 2, dubbed in German for your viewing pleasure:
I’ve been away for a few days, and have missed out on several little bits and pieces of Tool related news. No tour news though, which is what people really want!
Firstly, Maynard appears in the new movie Crank 2, which also features Danny Lohner, Mike Patton doing the soundtrack, and some dude from Linkin Park. Thanks to Ziggy and AZB for the tips.
In another movie related item, apparently The Taking of Pelham 123 will have an A Perfect Circle remix appearing on the soundtrack. Cheers Hurtfrog!
Maynard tweeted a couple of times, alluding to being in certain places at certain times. Possibly Tool, everything is as vague as you’d expect:
Oakland/Fox Theater? Seattle/Moore Theater? June? Anything is possible.
And
Wine events coming to the Midwest, NorthEast and SouthEast. But No Puscifer shows in those areas yet. Sorry. Soon. Hold please.
And
Possible dates in the NorthWest.
Aaron Harris from Isis confirms the tracks that Adam appears on Wavering Radiant:
Aaron continued to explain the exact contribution Adam Jones did on ‘Waving radiant, “He just did some guitar and its not gonna be that recognizable, its not your typical guitar sounds. I think he used an ebo and effects. But it still has that signature Adam Jones sound to it.”
Now on what tracks does Adam Jones play what Aaron describes as “a whole fading frog sound”? The opening song ‘Hall of the Dead’ and the instrumental title track ‘Waving Radiant’.
That’s all for now – some news in regards to the Fourtheye shirts will be coming soon!
Frostadamus tells me that Maynard is in two movies coming out this year. The first is The Other Side, where Maynard plays a series of roles (Hippie/Chauffeur/Pilot/Bartender/Butler/Bait Shop Clerk). The second is Crank 2: High Voltage where he plays an uncredited Dog Walker.
Isis have named their new album Wavering Radiant according to Blabbermouth. This album, to be released on Ipecac Recordings on the 5th of May, will feature Adam Jones on two tracks.
