I finally had a chance to check out the newly renovated Caduceus.org. I tried to check it out the other week after I’d heard it had changed, but for whatever reason it didn’t seem to load the Flash properly (damn Flash, my #1 annoyance on the web). If you haven’t checked it out, and you have an interest in Maynard and his wine endeavours, then make sure you do. The… Read More »Caduceus.org
A couple of quick snippets from around the web: It’s been mentioned in several places, in particular on Toolnavy that US radio will be playing the new single sometime between the 12th and the 17th of April. Not long to go now. Of course if memory serves me correctly, Schism was available from the Tool website a good week or so before Triple J played it for the first time… Read More »Singles, Butcher, Artwork, Tours
tentonmantra on Toolnavy mentions that Amazon.com has 10,000 Days on their site, complete with the album cover:
A couple of people have pointed out that the artwork released yesterday has a remarkable similarity with some of Alex Grey’s work: They look pretty much identical to me, with a bit of cropping & colour alteration of course. This has lead to some speculation that it may be related to the Live DVD rather than 10,000 Days, which seems like a reasonable statement considering Grey’s work with Tool on… Read More »Artwork Shenanigans
Here’s a link posted on Toolnavy by Mon-Go-Lloyd. Seems to be some recording photo’s with Sylvia Massey, so presumably from either Opiate or Undertow. http://radiostarstudios.com/tool.asp
Blair on Toolband/Army has posted some artwork from 10,000 Days. This one looks like a new logo: Anyone else think it looks like it says Fool rather than Tool? This one may or may not be the cover: Looks ok to me, though I was expecting something a little different. I’m sure though, as usual there will be much more to the artwork than just this image, and I’d very… Read More »10,000 Days Artwork
Just say posted on Toolarmy a link to this excellent Tool news site. Much the same a Fourth Eye, but contains only the facts ma’am! Thanks to Hold Your Light on TA for the link. Don’t forget that Fourtheye will still be here, with it’s focus on Australian Tool news, and occasional rumour posts!
According to Yaz on Toolarmy, Tool are confirmed at the Summer Sonic Festival in Japan on the 12th and 13th of August. This certainly clashes with the previously rumoured Australian tour dates. Still is great news, since I very much doubt Tool would go to Japan and then not to Australia and New Zealand. In other news, Adam is said to be featured in the next issue of Guitar World,… Read More »Tool in Japan
Things are going well in Sydney, not much internet where I’m staying unfortunately, but luckily nothing really exciting has come out in the last couple of days. Should resume normal operation on Monday. Pictures, holy shit there’s some funny one’s there. I guess they’re trying to ditch the whole ‘spritual/art rock’ thing. Here’s a list of links I’ve collected from the various comments. Apologies if I’ve missed one and thanks… Read More »Promo Pictures, German Listening Parties
