on the other hand, maynard repeatedly stated that if there is something new on the tool front we will be the first to know.....

There you have it... probably salival 2 or something of that nature.

TOOL UPDATE (EVEN THOUGH TODAY IS A HOLIDAY)

Wouldn't you know it. Here I am hoping to observe President's Day by taking care of something at home that I have been putting off for way too long, when I am bombarded with email from Tool fans wanting to know what's going on concerning a recent Facebook post (now making the rounds on all of the on-line music sites) about the members of the band tracking in the same recording facility where the band "Motorhead" are working on something. Well, realizing that millions of you need to get back to shoveling the snow off of your houses instead of anxiously waiting for further information to appear on a computer screen, here are four possibilities that I can think of, with one of them probably being the most likely answer to the chance meeting between the two bands in the same recording studio:

A) The members of Tool that the guys in Motorhead saw and interacted with in the studio were actually the DECOY members of the band , who have started tracking tunes for the new DECOY Tool album.

B) Rather than tracking tunes for the next Tool record, the (real) members of the band have begun tracking (real) tunes for the Tool album that is to be released AFTER the next Tool album is released.

c) Rather than tracking anything, the members of the band were in the studio mixing music that was recorded sometime ago, which might not have anything to do with the next Tool album (which is still in the writing/arranging process), but might be used for another Tool project that has been in the works for a while, of which I am currently not at liberty to add any further details.

D) All of the above.

Okay, like I mentioned earlier, one of these is most likely correct. Now, you have lots of snow to shovel, and I have more socks to fold...

That's a hell of an update from Blair, very cool.

Anyone think it's B? They've certainly had enough time to pull that off.

I'll gladly take a Salival 2 type release though!

Can anyone confirm if that's Blair in this pic?

uhm.. yes

k, thanks. I thought so.

BREAKING NEWS
New Salival type of release called "Problem 8" to be released May 10th.

Is that your guess? That would be a fitting name for it.

My gut tells me something is coming, soon.

My gut told me that in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Anyway, here's to seeing something (anything) this year

Yeah, my gut told me that in 2013. Then I realised it was just the chili con carne I had for dinner the previous evening. It took care of itself in due course though.

In the 442 pages related to TOOL's social media there is like zero actual information regarding new music. Just "writing/arranging and fishing". That's fuckin' funny.

It's only funny if you don't care for the music of the band Tool. Otherwise.....

Ran into Justin back in 2011 & asked him if there was any album news & he said that they were working on some tracks which "you guys will love". He seemed genuinely excited & apologised for the wait but said it would be worth it. I had no reason to doubt anything he said but unsure if he even thought that 4 years later the same uncertainty remains.

Man.. some chili con carne would hit the spot right now.

When in doubt, choose the longest answer.....

C it is. Which is disappointing. I do believe it is C though.

......or E) who cares!! Losing interest

They're still writing!! Imagine what would happen in the real world if your boss/teacher gave you an assignment and five years later you were STILL WRITING it!!?!?!

What a farce this has all become.

And as for this other "project" that is supposedly "in the works"....

Lucky we aren't Tools boss or teacher then I guess.

Well, they saw their own shadow. Another year's wait it is.

Like I said, Adam couldn't be that stupid. There is more to this. I still believe we won't see the new release until early 2016 though.

Agreed and agreed.
