I don't know why they had to specify fear in the title. It sounds lame and certainly isn't the only motivation behind the darkness of men. This is why I didn't like the title off the bat. It is too specific and obvious. Opiate, Undertow, Aenima, Lateralus, 10,000 Days... these all have some level of ambiguity or scale of varying application.

There sure has been a lot of fear mongering for 3 years about Russia, Russia, Russia from the Left since 45 came into power that's for certain...
Watch out for China China China coming to a trade fair near you.
I highly doubt that, they are genociding Uyghurs and no one really gives a fuck. (Quick go google it so you can give your 'informed' opinion)

Too important of a trade partner.

It's all about Iran Iran Iran
You missed my point entirely which was that China is a bigger "threat" with its increasing purchase of American debt.

Thanks for the pro tip though but I already watched four corners.

I haven't watched that show in years but good google-fu

In regards to the album title, all things known maybe they had only 5 titles to chose from, as in song titles.

They didn't want to call the album Invincible or Descending or whatever the rest end up being.

I mean would it be the same if the previous albums were named Flood, (Actually I like that more than Undertow) Third Eye, Reflection or Right in Two?

Translation:

Tool releases name of new record and is streamable

Big news from Tool! The band announced the title of her long-awaited record: Fear Inoculum. It will be released on August 30th. It's the fifth studio LP from the band, their first in 13 years, by the way. And there's more news for the fans: their entire catalog will be on all streaming services come friday.

Earlier this month De Morgen had the chance to listen to the new album exclusively. Contractually we are bound to silence, but mid-august you'll get a preview in this newspaper. In the meantime: It was worth the wait!

Has been stated a number of times all the songs on the album are over 10 mins in length. Danny's synth, while likely short, will take up a couple of minutes at least. Segues, etc.

Again let's do math...

If three songs take up roughly 40 minutes...and 79 is the max you can have on a cd...that leaves 39 minutes for seques, Danny's synth, and songs. If the songs are all indeed over 10 mins, 7 songs in total is IMPOSSIBLE.

It is either going to be 5 with some multi-part songs or 6. That will be about 70 mins worth of music, again, doing MATH, IF all the songs are indeed over 10 minutes in length given how long Descending and Invincible currently are and adding in the 15 mins song.
Guys.... Adam must be lying. Guitar World Mag must be wrong. M0G himself told us recently that 7 tracks was IMPOSSIBLE. And we know he is never wrong. I mean look at how he defends the album titles meaning?! We are all idiots. Im so interested to see how silly Adam looks when he realizes he miscounted how many songs are on the album when he said it has 7 tracks.

Would absolutely love this! I’ve convinced myself it’s going to be like 9 tracks and 6 “songs”. Nevermind the track amount 80 min would mean a double disk right?

And he mentions seven a lot. So 7 it will be.

Problem 8 makes sense again. They have written a song really good but which could not be placed on the new album. So they tried the good old pre-gap hidden song technique. (Check out problem 8).

Give the new GW article, I am amending my previous post to include that the title is likely also partial introspective reference, much like Eat the Elephant was, to the band working on this thing.

I am completely correct. That leaves no room for multiple seques. Which means the album is 7 tracks with no seques. Only way to fit the songs on the album dipshit.

Descending 12mins
Invincible 12mins 13seconds
18 minute song

Those three - roughly 43 minutes, leaving 37 for another four songs. If each songs is over ten minutes as has been reported, we still have a problem dipshit.

Math dipshit

So there are either no seques OR...what had been reported, that all songs are over 10 minutes, is incorrect

I'm guessing any "seques" are contained within the tracks themselves. No way this particular band is fucking it up by having them separate and making it not display at "7 tracks."

Or... there are less "tracks" and the seques are part of that 7. Either way... do not fucking care, cannot wait to hear it.

The title sounds like something off of The Incident by Porcupine Tree for some reason.

I imagine Fear Inoculum having a similar dark tone, but being much more heavy and intense and psychedelic and emotional while hopefully having plenty of delicate and introspective moments with the tabla or other exotic instruments. I love that they use elements from different cultures. Tool basically make future world prog or something. There is nothing cooler!

Another thing: people seem to forget that albums used to be way shorter back in the day. DARK SIDE OF THE MOON was a little over 42 minutes, so we have been getting double albums the whole time, guys!

Here is a piece from The Incident:

Lame excuses for 13 years between albums typical Adam head in the cloud Jones bullshit.

We shall see come August 30th if the album is everything Guitar World is making it out to be.

God I hope Invincible isn't the single if they do release one on Friday. Descending is infinitely better in every way.

M0G's done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing.

But seriously, segues were something the definitely stated would be on the album (specifically Danny's new bit). This must mean we have less than 7 real songs and at least one segue taking up the 7th slot. I hope we don't just get 6 actual songs.

Does it really matter that much? We get a studio single in the near future and then the entire album on August 30. What comes first is really not that important is it?
