The Tool December 2018 Newsletter is out, and since it’s mostly about me (of all people) I can assure you all there there is no actual Tool news contained within. BMB: How do you get your Tool-related news? How regularly do you check other sites?

It’s December once more, and that time of year usually elicits Best of Lists from websites far and wide. Fourtheye is no different, except we do it collectively, and them publish at the end of the year rather than rush it out early (I’m not willing to rule out the new Graf Orlock album from my list just because it’s not released yet). Rules are simple: Must be an album… Read More »Fourtheye Readers Best Album of 2018 Poll

Yesterday I dropped the Fourtheye Readers Top 10, now today I present my own top 10 albums on 2017. The list is presented loosely in order.

The results are in for the Fourtheye Readers Top 10 Albums of 2017. The poll didn’t get a huge amount of entries this year (partially my fault, since I didn’t push it too hard) but also a reflection of lower traffic these days on Fourtheye (I think partly to to many now consuming Tool news via various Social Media channels rather than older style websites). Anyway, without further delay, here… Read More »Fourtheye Readers Top 10 Albums of 2017
