Christophe from Salival.fr emailed me today to let me know he’s just posted an interview he did with Joe Barresi regarding the recording of 10,000 Days. Nothing groundbreaking in the interview, but a good read none the less: You’re said to be more focused on guitars, and first Danny Carey was even a little worried (tough he told he got the best sound with you). How did you manage with… Read More »Joe Barresi Interview
Note: This post contains no Tool content (aside from a few Tool shirts I saw at the gig). For those that can’t handle that concept, please move on! Last night I was lucky enough to head into town with a mate of mine and check out a band I’ve been meaning to see in a small setting for some time now. The Dillinger Escape Plan are a band I’ve been… Read More »Review: Dillinger Escape Plan & Periphery @ Fowlers Live
According to a recent post on the ISIS website, they have decided to call it a day: ISIS has reached an end. It’s hard to try to say it in any delicate way, and it is a truth that is best spoken plainly. This end isn’t something that occurred over night and it hasn’t been brought about by a single cataclysmic fracture in the band. Simply put, ISIS has done… Read More »Isis No More…

I get plenty of questions from readers regarding other shows on the tour (are Tool gonna play town… Read More »Seattle show confirmed

Amer contacted me today and asked my to plug his Ebay sale of an extremely rare copy of Aenima. His description can describe it better than I can: "A [studio master is a] recording that, presumably, has been mastered at the same studio it has been mixed at. Most recordings are mastered at a mastering facility. For security purposes (since this was a CD made before Ænima was released for… Read More »Rare Aenima Master CD on Ebay
Blair just posted a confirmation of the two Red Rock shows, and a new show on the 13th of July in Sacramento on Toolband. Hopefully more dates to come!
While not yet confirmed on Toolband, the 93.3 Website and AEG Live are showing that Tool are playing at Red Rocks, CO on to consecutive nights on the 28th and 29th of June (not that’s June not July). I’m not 100% convinced by those dates yet, so wait for confirmation on Toolband, but seems extremely likely that this will go ahead at this awesome venue. Two nights in a row… Read More »Red Rocks Confirmed! Puscifer DVD!
