Tool outline legal woes and update us on song-writing

In a lengthy Tool interview with Rolling Stone, Adam and Danny outline the legal woes that have drained their time, resources and creativity over the last 7 years: “And it’s costing millions and millions and millions of dollars to defend us,” Jones adds. “And the fans are all going, ‘We want a new Tool album. What the fuck?’ And you don’t want to pull people into your problems, because they… Read More »Tool outline legal woes and update us on song-writing

Blair uses capital letters to describe new album process

In an update from Blair just this morning he describes some progress on the next Tool album: The other day an insider (and by “insider” I mean truly an insider!) told me that since getting back to working on material for the next record, things have been going VERY well. Now, don’t read more into this than it suggests – which is that there have been some good writing/arranging sessions… Read More »Blair uses capital letters to describe new album process

Danny celebrates birthday in style at Cinquanta

The first reviews of Cinquanta (featuring Puscifer, A Perfect Circle, Failure and more) are dribbling in, but I won’t spoil it for those attending the second show. I will reveal the worst kept secret of the show, which is that Danny is playing in part of it. It’s a pretty special performance, that shouldn’t be missed – and here’s a video of part of it (SPOILER WARNING!). Get along to… Read More »Danny celebrates birthday in style at Cinquanta

Big Bob, as we called him, died peacefully from an illness in his house in Kansas, and Danny was able to visit with him in his last moments. Before suffering a stroke, Bob would attend… Read More »RIP “Big” Bob Carey

Peter Grenader on Danny’s Toolbox Synth

I was lucky enough to receive an email from Peter Grenader from Electro-acoustic Research over the weekend, who offered to give Fourtheye readers some exclusive insight into the Toolbox Synth that he designed for Danny prior to the recent Australia/NZ/Japan Tool tour. I met Danny Carey through Skinny Puppy’s cEvin Key, who I had partnered with on the reissue of two of our modules – the Model 15 VCO and… Read More »Peter Grenader on Danny’s Toolbox Synth

Tool September Newsletter

Blair posted the Tool Newsletter for the month of September. Not really much to report except that Danny & Justin have been fishing, and that perhaps I should too. As much as I love the great outdoors, there is no time for fishing, as I have a Tool Top 10 to complete!

Fourtheye is back!

We’re back! Turns out my porno stash was getting out of hand and the disk was full! While we were offline Danny lost and found his dog, over 100 people emailed me about some kids playing 46&2, and zero progress on the new Tool album was made!
