Sure, but I suspect most of the promo work will happen before then. They won't be touring in Aug-Sept, I think we can be assured of that.

Wine harvest. Maynard won't tour during that time (also applies to Puscifer & APC)

Maybe we'll get an update post on Toolband.com tomorrow (May 10th) as it's Danny's birthday.
So Long, and Thanks for All the Tool.

Are you serious? Can you post a link to read some info about it. Great news!!
Yep, they posted this on their facebook on Wednesday:
"So good things are happening in August? We will have something of our own for you in September. Full details following soon, thanks for waiting!"
https://www.facebook.com/pg/Suns-of-the ... 299/posts/

And you can see the other posts there about how they're pleased with the mix & are getting the artwork ready.

EDIT: Incidentally, I think one of these songs is a re-recording of an old Peach Vol.2 track.
Thank you so much! \[T]/

I am completely and utterly in love with Invincible. Was hoping to listen to the new tunes a few times and that was it but I can not stop coming back to it. Absolutely amazing song that draws on such a Tool sound but takes it somewhere I can't recall them ever going with. To me Descending sounds like it could belong a hybrid album of Lateralus & 10K days (not even close to being a criticism or knock at all ) but Invincible is something I have never heard from this band. It is fucking incredible.

Yeah Invincible is really winning me over but 6:24 to 6:34 sounds lifted directly from Right in Two I think?

Can't put my exact finger on it and it's doing my head in.

I am the same as everyone else, I can't stop listening to these two songs. I went for a long drive today and just had them on repeat, awesome. It is cool as I slowly get to know the lyrics in Invincible I find myself singing them on repeat in my head as well... I can't wait to hear this album...
Be good to each other.

Invincible - from 9:27 till the end is a killer. It just blows my mind. Even my blood pressure rises up during listening to this. "Warrior, struggling" - this song has been stuck in my head for the past 3 days.

That bit where Adams guitar feeds back then they all come in together blows me the fuck straight into outer space.

I really love end. How Maynard repeats the lyrics, how Adam starts playing those awesome riff variations and brings in that sympathetic chord progression (an example of something I mentioned previously), how it all resolves with a strong lyric and the band jamming on that awesome chord sequence... it is really good.
I know the pieces fit, I studied the numbers in Southern France.

My favorite part is Maynard's final Crescendo into the syncopated hits section. Such a good transition.

That's actually Justin doing the "synth solo" ;) He does the bass solo thing (with similar sound to the one in The Pot), and then the next part is some kind of pedal/effect that makes his bass sound like a synth.

Yo junior any intel on the protocol for epicenter festival? I’m seeing thunderstorms and lighting called for 10pm Saturday night. Going regardless but just wondering.

Oddly enough, Keith Richards next album is a synth opera produced by Larry Fast.
