Any particular date in October?

It was cold outside and the autumn had started. If I recall, I believe it was Monday the 13th. I walked out of my house and went to the mailbox in hopes of getting it, I seemed hopeful and excited. and there it was, laying in the cold mailbox. I listened to the album and was disappointed. I listened to it over and over again and had a few cold beers. It started to grow on me and suddenly I loved it.

Why did you "seem" to be hopeful and excited?

[Kittaan]

Why did you "seem" to be hopeful and excited?

Because he saw this in a vision of the future, snatchurally!

probably a looong shot ... I mean, his fortune telling skills led him to believe new records are released on Monday ... either that, or he waited a whole fucking week past the release date to listen ... McFly?

Haha! I was going to say something similar! Maybe he just didn't check the mail for a week... maybe he was on vacation

That could be the case. One thing I forgot to mention was that MOG came back to the forum and went nuts on the album, he became what he had always hated - The typical Tool fan.

MOG- FUCK THE HATERS

TOOL 09/09/2014 = 1

album or a single may be called ONE or 755= 7+5+5=17=1+7=8 Ever hear of Problem 8?? BAMM!!
trustinmeandfall has won

more proof Tool incorporates 1 into everything..
Undertow - Album 1
AEnima - A+E sorta combined to form 1 letter
Lateralus - released in '01
10,000 Days - has a 1 right in the beginning.

[Ravenpig]

Opiate was their first release and the "l" in Salival looks like a "1"

Mind = Blown

[The Boss]

Three letters used in the name TOOL.

"HALF LIFE 3" confirmed.

[N.Y.H.C.]

I hope to be a new piece on fourtheye, i have a few decent sources for info so ill post what i hear when i can.

Considering it takes about 7-9 months between entering the recording studio to release date, I'd say we are starting to approach the point where a 2014 release is unlikely. There has been very little news lately other than Maynard has the music now and just needs to write the lyrics. With his other projects, who knows how long that will take. Then, they would still need a month or two to jam together with Maynard to polish everything up before they can hit the studio. I think we are looking at 1Q 2015 at this point as a best case scenario.

I'm really jonesing for new material. I wish they could just release something without having to wait a whole year plus... anything... like even 5 minutes of a writing jam session. Or that hidden track (if it indeed exists).

everyone goes through that exact phase. time heals most wounds.

Yep, this is pretty much correct. I can't see any further songwriting (let alone recording) happening until after the Mexican jaunt.

[joeypants]

Yep.

Although if it's any consolation, I would bet they probably forgo the whole "jam a month or two" with Maynard before entering the studio. They'll probably keep it remote right up until he steps in to record his vocals.

[Ravenpig]

Two weeks into 2014 and it's already getting dismissed?

Geez.

[The Boss]

Let's face it - TOOL fans don't tend to be a particularly hopeful bunch.

And understandably so.
