Maynard in Movies, Isis Album

Frostadamus tells me that Maynard is in two movies coming out this year. The first is The Other Side, where Maynard plays a series of roles (Hippie/Chauffeur/Pilot/Bartender/Butler/Bait Shop Clerk). The second is Crank 2: High Voltage where he plays an uncredited Dog Walker. Isis have named their new album Wavering Radiant according to Blabbermouth.  This album, to be released on Ipecac Recordings on the 5th of May, will feature Adam… Read More »Maynard in Movies, Isis Album

Adam’s Birthday, Isis’ Gift

Happy Birthday to Adam, who turned 44 on the 15th of January. Also revealed on Toolband/Army is the fact that Adam will be the guest on the upcoming Isis album, not Maynard as speculated…

Not Maynard, Puscifer Update

James emailed Isis today about the video that may or may not feature Maynard, and their response was: ‘ Hey thanks a lot and thanks for watching. Nope, no song of ours in the background. I think you may be hearing a performance that was happening in the background at the festival where Mike rode the bull. ‘ Take care, ISIS You failed again Ganjalf. Frostradamus pointed out to me… Read More »Not Maynard, Puscifer Update

Maynard on new Isis album?

Ganjalf told me today that he was checking out a new clip from Isis in the recording studio, and some of the music playing while showing some mechanical bull riding has a strangely familiar voice… It does sound like Maynard.  Does anyone else recognise the music as something else?

December Tool Newsletter

Blair released the December Newsletter on Toolband today, and surprisingly it’s somewhat on topic.  For those who can’t be bothered reading it: Nothing happening on the Tool front at the moment, but song writing will probably commence once the holiday season is over (with presumably Maynard joining them after the Puscifer shows).  Also, no decision has been made as to whether or not they might tour in 2009.  Personally, I… Read More »December Tool Newsletter

June 2008 Newsletter

As promised, Blair released the June 2008 newsletter, and this time it contains some “details” of what’s up in the Tool world. Head over to Toolband/Army to read it, but here’s my summary. Adam is: working on some undisclosed entertainment industry related project? Guitar Hero perhaps? also involved in the construction of some future band-related endeavor. Building a recording studio perhaps? Spending time playing Halo 3 and watching Baseball games… Read More »June 2008 Newsletter
