Random Tool Social Media thread

Ah fair enough, thought I was getting carried away lol But you never know! Will be good to finally hear what the production quality is like. I'm guessing as they've used the same producer/engineer it's going to be similar to 10k days sound.

Yep, Joe Baresi is the producer this time around just like 10k Days, i personally prefer David Bottrill who did Aenima and Lateralus, imo the drums and bass sounded better with David.

Yeah I prefer the sound of lateralus, 10k days is getting into the 'loudness war' territory a bit for me but I still love it and I'm sure the new one will sound wicked.

It's not really insider info. It comes second hand, though from a source that I know wouldn't be deliberately misleading. I imagine we'll hear it confirmed by other sources in the coming days.

Yep you got it, reading you loud an clear. Def going to get a single by the end of the week. Written in stone. Gospel!

The single is CC Trip

Tool effing Tool!

Imo the drum and certainly the bass sounded better when Joe Baresi was the producer. But I think the songs are also a huge factor.

[Tool_User]

Lateralus just seems to blend together really well for me like it's one big beautiful sound where 10k days sounds more fractured and abrasive.

Get your hearing checked dude.

[Raffa D]

Hearing loss 30%. So it isn't a matter of opinion.

Comparing apples with oranges I think.

[PulsedHalo]

Notice that all the videos they are posting are 45 seconds long? Think that means something? RPM's?

[Tool_User]

That's just the average attention span of a tool fan. Slightly higher than your average music fan I might add.

I’m just as stoked to hear Invincible/Descending studio version as I would be for an entirely new song. So much more to discover with those and comparing to the live clips will be fun.

Sunday: New Logo post
Monday: Opiate post
Tuesday: Undertow post
Wednesday: Aenima post?
Thursday: Lateralus post?
Friday: 10,000 days post?

Also I love the sound of the Bass on 10,000 days!

Yeah it's going to be wicked! I can imagine that the last part of invincible is going to be at lateralus levels of awesomeness.

I don't think it'll be a single on Saturday/Sunday/Monday, it'll probably be cover and title reveal, maybe a tracklist? Anyways, this is exciting

Hellboy specifically said that his source is direct and genuine and 100 percent garuntees we will get a single by the end of this week. Absolutely damn down darnit done and happening!

[earthrocker]

I didn't see the 100 percent in HB's comment. But there was a confidence given to the source

[xZ1mM3r]

Gets weird when you have to actually consider how you will be able to listen to the new single by your favorite band. Lately you would just get on your favorite streaming service and play the new single. But with Tool we are going to have to use YouTube? On what channel? Do they even have an official YouTube channel? Will we have to buy a physical single cd?

HB what are your thoughts on the actual release of new music from Tool?

[tys0n]

ITunes exclusive guaranteed

[Ettan]

I reckon they'll go the U2 route and add the new album for free to everyone with an iPhone. Suck it Android nerds

Look pal, whatever it was that I wanted to hear, that's what I heard. Yeah?

[fractal-machine]

It's a sigil. It says "TOOL 2019"

[Shed523]

HB also said a that reliable "source" told him there was going to be an album Release date too. That one panned out really hoping this one does too!

[hellboy]

Not the same source in this case, but I'm hopeful that it's accurate.

[ziggy23]

we should get a track this week (I assume at the end of the "countdown").
