Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

I was really hoping to see some VIP reports saying they were finishing up the songwriting process and looking to hit the studio by springtime.

If that report is accurate, I think it pretty much eliminates a 2017 release.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

See you in 2019! https://www.reddit.com/r/ToolBand/comments/591f7n/anyone_doing_vip_in_salt_lake_tomorrow/ "I learned a lot of insight about the band from the Q&A with Adam. There was 150 of us in a room with him and it felt very personable. He played for us, talked about he and Justin play...

If Danny Carey is saying it's gonna be a while then......yeah, it's gonna be A WHILE......

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Unless I missed something, I find it very unlikely MJK participates in the VIP sessions I imagine he's referring to the MJK Book Reading shows. Regarding Meshuggah, I seem to have vague memories of them (probably Haake) talking about hearing demos before. I'm too lazy to check the links, but is thi...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Hopefully the upcoming Tool and MJK VIP sessions will yield some actual info.

I also think there's a chance they might play an actual, completed new song at the shows later this month. Or at least a more fleshed-out offering of Descending with lyrics.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Someone should ask Bottrill about Problem 8, since it was allegedly recorded during that era.

MJK interview w/ Mikey Havoc https://soundcloud.com/radiohauraki/mikey-havoc-interviews-maynard-james-keenan-from-puscifer I love the Money Shot album....most of the Puscifer stuff before that doesn't do much for me though.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

What does soon even mean? For an average band who releases an album every 2 years that would probably somewhere within 3 months. But for Tool who haven't released an album in over 10 years you would have to multiply that by at least 5. So soon in this case means within the next 18+ months. And with...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

The poorest fucking excuse for a newsletter I've read in years. Oh I think there's been way worse than this one....not blaming Blair, I get that he can't post certain things w/o their permission. I just think it's gotten to the point where they could at least give us a rough estimate of where thing...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

I'd still love to see 10K Days on vinyl....I don't understand why they haven't at least done that at some point during the last decade. I would've much rather had that than the Opiate reissue.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

All their other "extras" (Salival, Parabola/Schism/Vicarious DVDs) came out just in time for Xmas. If it actually does come out this year, I'm putting my money on a mid-December release.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

When the next record eventually does come out, I'll be interested to see how they respond to the endless barrage of "what took so long"-type questions they'll no doubt be getting in every interview.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Yeah, but the way you phrased that really just means "is there anything done/finished and recorded just sitting there." That there isn't is not very surprising to me. However, you can bet they have a lot of half-developed ideas and things laying around that COULD be turned into something....

"A new side project for M" I reeeeeaallyyy don't seen ol' May Jay doing much music stuff (besides Tool) that wouldn't be Puscifer. That Twitter account pretty much just threw all the fan theories from the past 10 years on there, even the "they're done after this" one. That seems...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

I hope we at least get the video(s) by the end of the year. We're approaching Q4 of 2016 and it was pretty clear from that last newsletter that they're still in the songwriting phase, so I think the album's AT LEAST a year off yet, possibly even longer. Even 2018 is starting to look more and more li...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

Yeah, I've never heard of bands being contractually obligated to release a certain number of music videos before....and as far as the Opiate video, I wish they would've just waited til that was done and released the video (supposedly with the "new" version of the song) along with the Opiat...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

I thought the curveball was already confirmed to be the Opiate video? Not sure about confirmed, but it was certainly very strongly hinted at by Danny in that Children of Saturn interview he did. When Zimmer says Live DVD, he could be assuming the video will be part of a Salival like package - there...

I believe someone said at one of the VIP sessions that Adam claimed they had 2 videos in production because they still owed their label 2 videos from the albums they've already released....Opiate was confirmed as one of them, and my guess would be that the other one is The Pot. Logic would tell me t...

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread

I do have to say, after last month's newsletter hinting at some big reveals coming, it was pretty frustrating reading this new one, which is pretty much identical to the ones I was reading in 2011 and 2012.
