Random Tool Social Media thread

Yeah, I'm generally excited to hear whatever it is they come up with. But I'm not getting truly excited until they're properly inside the studio.

[trilobite]

Fingers crossed.



Almost time for mjk to half-heartedly tour another Tool album!! And shit Puscifer all over new APC.

Billy, please find a new voice. Or just be the forefront at this point.

New APC isn't evolving from what it was, it sounds like an after-thought from one of its core parts. 2 different places, shoved blindly together.

Going to catch hell, but Puscifer #2. Mer de Noms was a brilliant album. Just driving the stake further down

353 is sacred geometry that represents hermes, who was know to have the harolds staff known in latin as caduceus.

[lukas]

"yup" - says Maynard.

[Bill Hilly]

Maynard trolling hard. I have more respect for Justin after every interview he does. He is the best spokesperson for Tool at this point.

[Danny]

I can't seem to find the KERrang article.

Can someone post a link if it out there please.

[hellboy]

[Danny]

Thanks again HB.

We used to get kerrang on the stands here in Beirut,Lebanon back in the day ,i looked around at the mall but didn't find,i guess buying magazines is of the past.

[hellboy]

Sooooooooo, anyone know any jokes or anything? Unfounded rumours they want to start?

[azbay]

Lol, yes it's been super quite around these parts....ummm... will be heading to cottonwood/ Jerome soon, want to check out that new wine room/ restraunt in cottonwood..... and of course say hi to the peeps that unfortunately know me by now at caduceus. Will report back later of any news or significance attributed to these establishments.

I miss the old website.

Pretty decent video from San Bernardino show....

[nxrm]

^Funny, I was watching/listening to that a bit earlier today. Re-living the experience. Do wish they'd captured some of The Melvins set as well as the whole of Descending, but plenty of good things in there.

[Bill Hilly]

Maynard's voice sounds extremely good. Hot damn.

[ziggy23]

Confirmed MJK on Joe Rogan Experience this week

[fortysixand2]

Wonder what he's gonna talk about?

[Ravenpig]

Stuff

[lukas]

Is Maynard in L.A.? APC / TOOL business?

[xZ1mM3r]

Is Maynard in L.A.? APC / TOOL business?

Im sure if things are going on he will stop by; but my guess is he has some time off between tours and Joe asked him to do the podcast again, so he flew out to L.A..

[hellboy]

Is Maynard in L.A.? APC / TOOL business?

I'd expect Maynard is in LA more frequently than we realise.

[joeypants]

Probs most def the Tool album. He'll talk about it at length on the podcast, BET THAT!

[hellboy]

I haven't listened to the podcast yet, but the gist from Reddit is that nothing is "completed" but there appear to be 2-3 songs that are done instrumentally which Maynard needs to do his thing with.

That being the case, sounds like we're still a good 6 months away from them hitting the studio. I certainly have no expectation of them recording in 2017 at this stage.

[Ravenpig]

Here's the meat and potatoes of the Tool talk:

[Bill Hilly]

Still not enough potatoes to make french fries. Epic.

[hellboy]

Great snippet. I think Maynard is pretty upbeat about the whole thing, despite the obvious frustrations with the process. While I was never in much doubt that there would be a new Tool album, this interview definitely makes me feel like it's a more a case of "when" than "if"...
