As for pre-orders, it looks like they've completely flipped the script. All out digital up front with a secondary physical release. This will be interesting.

Why should someone pre order a digital release? Can they sell out or something? That'd be awkward. ;)

I agree, as I said: what's the point in preordering a digital release?
Early Access is the only extra they could give to do that.

The disappointment stems from this not being a true “pre-order” as the band posted on Monday. Everything should be righted soon, but frustration is righteous tonight. The fact the band posts this stuff themselves is both colloquial/endearing and aggravating at times.

They'll be up tomorrow. There's no delays with packaging. She'll be apples mate. This time tomorrow you'll be able to here a studio version of a song and pre order. That's a solid Busty stamp of assurance right there..... with extra Bust!
ya, i kinda take back what i said. i dont know why i thought the band would be linking everyone to amazon or something like that..off their own site if they do sure but everywhere else is not up to them to post. not that i recall with anything really.

im not even impatient. we've been spoiled the last week or so. the end of march ive been all about tool everyday..its gravy now! shits too easy! :)

Colloquial speaking, I believe your use of the word is incorrect. Hope M0G doesn't catch wind of it!

Amazon has the cd up for pre-order at 44 dollar. But no info on extras. A Dutch shop has the cd at pre order for 19 euro (some 22 dollar) with no additional info.

I don't get why people keep mentioning "special edition" and "limited release". We've seen nothing from the band or anyone else that suggests that. Far as I've seen it's just this one "special packaging" which isn't going to be a limited run but just the main release.

It'll be good to finally hear a song.

I think many of us are happy with the idea that there is one main package, that will be broadly available. This is the one at Port of Sound yesterday and Amazon today.

What some are wondering is if there will be some kind of package above that, possibly offered via Toolband. The answer may be "no", but hasn't really be clarified one way or the other.

Surely people would have more sense than to order from Toolband. They should be the last ditch option.

Australia Peeps, how do you plan to get your hands on the physical copy? My first time buying a TOOL CD here and want to make sure I get it right with no delays. Cheers

Yes, exactly.

I think the confusion and fear is that the "Special Packaging version" that Adam mentioned on Instagram was limited. Which may be the case or may not be...I don't think we have confirmation either way yet.

What's great is that we'll all know soon enough. :D

Amazon, they usually price beat most competitors and free shipping with Prime (also usually shipped ahead so you get it on release day, never had a problem with it)

Looks like the Amazon link may be legitimate: Fear Inoculum

They list the Record Label as RCA, which is a subsidiary of Sony.

And then this from RCA: Tool Catalog Now Available Via Digital Service Providers

FWIW...Taken from Amazon...

The album will be available digitally, and in a special Limited Edition physical package that includes a CD in a tri-fold Soft Pack Video Brochure featuring a 4" HD rechargeable screen with exclusive video footage, a USB charging cable, a 2 watt speaker and a 36 page insert book and MP3 download card

I just had one of those silent 'holy fuck it's actually here' moments.
Been obsessed since 96, first show Brisbane 97. To get a new album 23 years later and still love all their music is just wonderful.
