There hasn’t been an announcement, but several Fourtheye readers have notified me that both Adam’s and Danny’s interview with Blair have been published. The one with Adam appears in the last newsletter on Toolband. It’s largely a reprint of what has already been talked about in other interviews.
Danny’s, found on his website, is a little more interesting, and he talks about his work on Opiate and hints at some of the esoteric meanings behind the release.
Adam’s interview seemed a bit …. recycled to me? Danny’s interview was interesting. I usually like hearing what these guys have to say and in this case, Danny kept my interest with his responses. I’m glad all of the Opiate re-releases sold out and we don’t have to discuss it anymore. Back to the waiting game now I guess… Trent posted an instagram picture of HTDA rehearsing,19 days until I see them in Monterey (muh home town). NIN is on the verge of breaking loose again and YeahYeahYeahs drop a new album in 18 days. Maybe Maynard can take a… Read more »

I don’t really like eMotiv or aMotion… well… there are some gems there but overall their full length true releases are so amazing. As for Ashes Divide, Billy’s first album was amazing and I’m ready for the next. He’s been working on it for a long time. There’s a really good interview with Billy and Matt Pinfield (in Billy’s home) and he said, I’m probably not remembering correctly, that I think Danny’s drum tech told him he needed to give his own music a shot? I can’t remember exactly who told him to branch out but… shortly after we had… Read more »
Yeah I tried eMotive and aMotion… I think the only time it really appealed to me was when I was completely engulfed in a quarter ounce of shrooms… It mainly intrigued me at that moment because I had my macbook pro hooked up to my sound system and the macbook pro and album covers looked amazing… once we turned on the “JELLY” visualizer it was over for everyone haha. You probably already know this, “Passive” and “Potions” are Tapeworm songs which I think is cool that Maynard found a few songs he thought were worth the effort from that “failed”… Read more »
All the songs sound the same from ‘Ashes Divide.’ APC was up there with Tool in my eyes (1st and 2nd album-not the remix crap). Someone from the outside needs to critice the music and that was Maynard’s job in APC – reason why ‘Ashes Divide’ sounds so one dimensional.
So my prediction is that Undertow will be a 23rd anniversary.
