jsmodena emailed me a link to a new interview with Maynard on Spin. It’s pretty brief, but touches on upcoming recording/writing plans for both Tool and Puscifer: New music from Tool is also in the works. "They are getting together and writing," he says of bandmates drummer Danny Carey, guitarist Adam Jones, and bassist Justin Chancellor. "I’ll be popping back into L.A. soon to check in."

In a new interview with Artist Direct, Maynard discusses the Blood Into Wine movie, which is now available on DVD. He talks about wine making, the movie, and a little about Puscifer. No Tool news for those who are only interested in one thing (apart from sex): It’s an inspiring film because audiences very rarely have the opportunity to see how intense the winemaking process is. It’s been removed from… Read More »Maynard on Blood Into Wine

The DVD will be released on SEPTEMBER 14.… Read More »Slight Blood Into Wine delay
Subtle emailed me this morning telling me that there are lyrics available on the Puscifer site. I haven’t noticed them before so I suspect they’re new. Just in case you don’t believe me here’s a sample from my favorite Puscifer song: Wake up son of mine. Momma’s got somthin’ to tell you. Changes come. Life will have it’s way with your pride, son. Take it like a man. So hang… Read More »Puscifer Lyrics
With the Blood Into Wine DVD release imminent, it makes sense that they might want to release a new trailer. This one seems to focus on Maynard and Tool fans. Well here it is: Man I wish I was in the third row of the New Orleans show…
According to a recent post on the Tool Hotline, it’s been confirmed in the Team Puscifer message boards that there will be a West Coast A Perfect Circle tour. No details have been announced in regards to dates and venues, or who will actually be in the band.

I forgot to mention in the August update that you can listen to a new remix of The Humbling River on the Puscifer site. It’s the second track after Rocket Man. Sounds good, but personally I’m ready for some new stuff rather than just remixes… Toolshed also had an update recently. Not only have then just turned 15 (congratulations!) but Kabir spoke with Danny who confirmed Tool are back songwriting.… Read More »Puscifer Remix, Toolshed Hits 15!
Here’s a bunch of news updates and things I’ve picked up of the last month but haven’t quite been motivated enough to create a new post for.

No word on what Justin plays… Read More »August Updates
