Well, that's generally how it works. It's hard to assert that religion is silly without undermining it.Bones wrote: The assertion part comes in as he undermined others opinions as he gave his own.....ie Christians, bible believers, or others that may simply disagree.
Not in this forum thread please. It's already everywhere else, we don't need it in the Tool social media thread.hellboy wrote:Well, that's generally how it works.

Edit: No offense taken btw.
If what we've been hearing is true, that they're still contractually obligated to deliver one more album, it just doesn't make much sense that it would be a double, triple, quadruple, or any type of release.blacksabbath wrote:I bet tool releases a new album next spring. I hope it's a double with full length film. That would be worth the wait
Adam posted on IG - Evil joe producing a "what would be jam" a while ago, could be something.blacksabbath wrote:If they were just releasing something for the record company, why not just release some jams and then get on with something epic?
I don't think that Tool would hold back a "magnum opus" just because they want fulfil their contract with something lesser.nxrm wrote:

I agree with that, especially after hearing what Adam had to say during the meet and greets, but I do think expectations for some epic release should be tempered.hellboy wrote:I don't think that Tool would hold back a "magnum opus" just because they want fulfill their contract with something lesser.
I agree with the part about never intentionally releasing an album they aren't 100% behind, but...there was that recent 21st Anniversay Opiate release...just saying'.xZ1mM3r wrote:I dont think they would ever release a sub-par album of jams or cut songs just to fulfill their contract, and then go out on their own and release the good stuff.... just not like them to do that.
Again, agreed, but the idea (expectation really) that this equates to a double album or something even more epic, based solely on the amount of time since their last release...come on. That's just someone setting themselves up for disappointment.xZ1mM3r wrote:Adam knows, at the end of the day, all you are judged on is your material, and he will never release something that he believes is less than perfect.
I am not of the camp that believes it will be a double album.. i simply used that as an example because someone had mentioned it. I think it will be a single album, but a great one.nxrm wrote:I agree with the part about never intentionally releasing an album they aren't 100% behind, but...there was that recent 21st Anniversay Opiate release...just saying'.xZ1mM3r wrote:I dont think they would ever release a sub-par album of jams or cut songs just to fulfill their contract, and then go out on their own and release the good stuff.... just not like them to do that.

It's not that it would be epic because of the time. It's that it would make the wait worthwhile. Totally different thing. It's just dumb hope posted to kill the time between now and Halloween. Another distraction until they release their long awaited double album.nxrm wrote:I agree with the part about never intentionally releasing an album they aren't 100% behind, but...there was that recent 21st Anniversay Opiate release...just saying'.xZ1mM3r wrote:I dont think they would ever release a sub-par album of jams or cut songs just to fulfill their contract, and then go out on their own and release the good stuff.... just not like them to do that.

Well, for the sake and sanity of those anxiously expecting, I truly hope it is something epic.blacksabbath wrote:It's just dumb hope posted to kill the time between now and Halloween. Another distraction until they release their long awaited double album.
