News regarding releases of Tool material
Toolband is reporting the Lateralus Vinyl will be made available on the Tool Websites (Toolband and Toolarmy), and will go one sale Monday August 1 (PST). Presumably this means at midnight, though it doesn’t seem to clarify that at all. That’s 5pm for all us Aussies. He also indicates the Limited Holographically Autographed copies will be made available to Toolarmy members, and more details on when where and how much… Read More »Vinyl Release Notes
There’s a bit more information regarding the Lateralus Vinyl on Toolband. It looks as though it will be released in late August, and apparently autographed copies will be made available in limited numbers to Tool fans, presumably Toolarmy members. These autographs will somehow be etched into the vinyl itself rather than on the sleeve, so expect these to cost extra. You also may remember a few weeks ago I mentioned… Read More »Vinyl and Firefox Extension Update
Here’s just a few things I noticed during the surfing over the weekend: HMV UK are taking pre-orders for a Tool release on the 19th of September. No indication on what it actually is. For those with a burning desire to pre-order a mystery Tool product go here. Someone on the alt.music.tool newsgroup posted this link to some photo’s of Maynard and Adam from a concert in Germany. Some very… Read More »From the Net
I noticed today on the Wikipedia Tool Talk page this interesting snippet: It’s been confirmed that teleincision.com was registered by a prankster at SomethingAwful.com in an attempt to mislead rabid Tool fans. Now I’m obviously not sure what evidence if any there is of this, but it certainly reinforces my thoughts that Teleincision doesn’t really exist.
A new post from Blair on the Toolband site confirms that the Lateralus Vinyl Edition will be released some time in August, and that the 23rd ‘sounds pretty good’. This may put to rest the rumours regarding Teleincision coming out in August (presuming of course Teleincicion is a legitimate release at all, which I doubt). More details are to come in the next few days.
The prp is reporting that: Tool will reportedly be issuing a vinyl edition of their “Lateralus” album in North America on August 23rd. The outing is said to be a double-vinyl effort on 4 picture discs, packaged in a special plastic gatefold with holographic foil. No official word has been released as of yet however. Too bad for us non-North Americans, not that the idea of Vinyl is that appealing… Read More »Lateralus Vinyl
A posting on Toolarmy has denied the release date advertised in certain Hastings stores in the US. One of the Tool inner circle (Kat to be exact) has denied that the 23rd of August is the release date, and that Toolarmy members will indeed be the first to hear the announcement. Good for us members I guess. For those Toolarmy members out there, feel free to PM/positively Karma me, my… Read More »Tool release date not true!
This was reported on Toolarmy today, and this guy is not the only one claiming to have seen this? So I was wandering around my local music/video/book store, Hastings today, and suddenly I had found myself step directly into the 5th deminsion. What I saw there was most bewildering. While walking by the music information desk, from the corner of my eye, under the “reserve your copy now” poster, it… Read More »The Plot Thickens
About two years ago, I discovered RSS feeds. As simple method of streaming information and news from a correctly set up website. Shortly after that I discovered a Blog, the Living Colour Blog, which outlined the news and events of the band Living Colour. It included an RSS feed, which I find makes life very easy to collect the kind of information I wanted about the band. Today, as I… Read More »Prying Open
