@Busty - Ya man I decided last year to embrace a more balanced approach and to try to live mindfully to the best of my abilities. As with all things it is a work in progress but somewhere along the line I fell back in love with Tool's music. Tool still frustrates me on a number of levels but that a...

Great job Hboy, hopefully it has at least some form of impact. Surprised to hear you've been able to somewhat rekindle your appreciation of their tunes Mog.Good to see the resentment has made way to more pity to the band than anger

https://youtu.be/P1DZFd1ncvw Dem feels when ya stumble across a show you attended 15 years ago. Pretty decent audio bootleg from their Sydney show in 2002. Never been a massive Triad fan but remember it being shit hot on the night with the melvins drummer on percussion and memory served well. Sounds...

I reckon the title track would feel kinda lame to be honest. Kinda like its going nowhere.

Could have sworn we were up to 58 by my count

It is kinda good to actually see this place talking about the band which is the reason we're all here, I'll give ya that.

Have been a lurker, somewhat poster for a 7 odd years now, is gonna be mega weird to see this place actually talking in depth about new Tool music if / when that happens.

2 years ago....from the February 2015 newsletter: Now that these other things have been put to rest, let’s see about any current news. The first item would be that the members of the band will be taking a break from their writing/arranging sessions next week WHILE Aaron Harris (“ISIS”, PALMS”) sets...

Not gonna lie, I missed the whole Maynard working on vocals post on the previous page so was thinking everyone was getting excited over that video Adam took. Can see the reason behind the optimism now, my bad. I'll still stand by my I refuse to get excited until I see an official release date thing ...

I'm with Mog and kinda wish Mog of yesteryear was still around to give us all an almighty and well deserved I told you so to all of us... fairly confident if someone was arsed to scroll through the forums they'd find a quote from him saying something along the lines of "I wouldn't be surprised ...

Talk about making excuses for the band.

3 bands that stood way higher than everyone else when I was as a teenager was Faith No More, Metallica & Tool..

FNM released a newbie in 2015.
Metallica released a newbie in 2016.

As a big fan of Symmetry I'm gonna take a wild punt and call a late 2017 release for the trifecta.

^ Now that's something I wouldn't have ever thought I'd hear from a Tool fan.

Sorry to hear about ya loss Pimpie

I tend to skip wings 1 and have done so for many years but wings 2 is an amazing song. , but hey I'm a sucker for bass and that bass line hooked me instantly on first listen. Vividly remember listening to that on 1st spin. I can play alot of Tool songs but Rosetta stoned I've struggled with massivel...

^ TOOK MA DIGNITY!!!! great tune for me.

There is some seriously tasty licks on the last 2 albums that while may not be technically insane to play, it's a whole different concept to actually be able to write them and have them fit the song. So I see where you're coming from but have to disagree

Hey now, I never said anything about him NOT seeming to be an asshole! If I ever saw the dude at an airport I'd probably run the other way. He doesn't necessarily come off as a bitter "I hate life" person, just not a people person. Probably sit down next to him on a plane, say "hi&qu...

I really enjoyed Matt last tour when they came to Aus as Puscifer and APC but felt they lost nothing by having Paul in his place

As mentioned in Puscifer thread it is beyond obvious that Maynard has little passion for Tool compared to Puscifer and am kinda surprised he still does it to be honest. I wonder what keeps him involved. Friendship, obligation, money or deep down he still does respect the living shit out of the proj...

My mum said she wished I was never born 25 years ago.. does this mean her view has potentially changed and that I should maybe consider calling her? As mentioned in Puscifer thread it is beyond obvious that Maynard has little passion for Tool compared to Puscifer and am kinda surprised he still does...

Don't know names but i do know that the fella from ministry took over bass duties from money shot onwards. Like his predecessor has a killer bass tone.

Yeah man, great bass tone too!

Quick recap of Sydney show last week: The new ICC theatre that just opened has the best acoustics I've ever heard. Seriously even whistles from the crowd sounded amazing. If you ever get a chance to see a band there.... Go! Maynard is clearly so much more into Puscifer than Tool at this point I woul...

Cheers for heads up. Keep us posted on here if ya hear of anything thanks mate. Mate of mine who pretty much lives and breathes all things Maynard , flew down to Hobart to see them down there and ended up being 2 seats behind him and right next to the luchifers on flight back home to Melbourne. She ...

Puscifer in Sydney next weekend. Only caught them first time they came to Aus coz I was in town at the time and had nothing better to do. Found em to be surpisingly awesome live. Looking forward to it.

Anyone else here gonna check em out?

2017 and still no album. Useless bastards!
