Justin was interviewed by Rolling Stones Robyn Doreian during the recent interview frenzy, and it's just appeared on the shelves this month. Here's a snippet:



"It's never taken us this long," he says. "If it's not happening, then it's just not happening. We will not put out something we are not satisfied with. We are a bit slower this time. We are older, we are different and our situations are different. We are just accepting of the fact that it's going to take a lot more patience."



He mentions it's unlikely the album will be out in 2013. Justin also talks about maturing as a person, M.T.void and how he expects the coming tour to draw from old and newer material during a "sensory overload" spanning several hours. Over all a relatively short interview, but full of interesting snippets.

For those wanting a copy, I purchased mine for just over $5 via the Google Play store. Here's a link, though I'm not sure if it will be available to non-Australians.

Thanks to Calfium Jay for the tip.

Does anyone fancy quoting what he said about the new material for those who can't read it?

We'll see come April. Justin has more credibility in his thumb than Danny Carey - all 6 foot 5 inches of him.

Sounds like they have writers block? "If its not happening, it's just not happening. " Who knows when the hell this will come out. To me, it just sounds like they really aren't into the band anymore. Adam says they've become a lot more distant now. I guess that could be taken several ways. Maynard seems to care more about Puscifer and his wine. Its just hard to see where their mind is at. I really haven't heard anything positive about the band or album as of late.

Not the news I was hoping for, but it is definitely a relief to hear SOME news.  

 

I am jealous as hell of you fuckers getting these upcoming shows.  Still, I hope they get their shit together and finish the album rather than continue touring after these gigs.  Stating the obvious I know.

Zwerewolf Responds: I don't think they have writers block. I think when he's saying "If its not happening, it's just not happening." he's referring to the past. When Adam spoke of the distance he was speaking about when they last disbanded. When they've spoken of practicing and writing recently all three of them have had very positive reviews.
They'll Definitely mesh again there's not doubt about it. I really liked how he said that he's "become more mature" and isn't such a kid anymore. Especially hearing that he's been the main driving force behind the writing sessions which thoroughly excites me because he's such an intricately woven piece of this band and to the more sub-par listeners of the band he probably doesn't even stand out. That's about to change I believe.
I think I'm most interested to hear who they select a producer. I really really really really really want to hear they select Dave Bottrill again. That formula seemed to work very well for their best two albums.

Best Regards,

If it wasn't already, Justin's contribution to the band is FIRMLY cemented into your brain once you've seen them live, casual fan or not.

Looking more like 2014 for the new album, as predicted. I really hope they go with David Bottrill again as well. He really captures what they truly sound like live. While Baressi was good...on 10,000 Days he made Tool sound more typical. And the main driving force of the band, (Danny's drums), were kind of buried in the overall mix.

Bottrill! Bottrill! Bottrill! Well said VOID. I'll also predict 2014. Sounds like everything is on schedule. The new SPIN article with Adam sheds light. He's been so positive lately.

I hope they don't go with Bottrill again.  Like Bottrill mentioned in that documentary, they creatively did their thing and it's time to move on to something else.  Remember, change is good.

 

I also think it's a little bullshit that Maynard gets a huge pic while Justin gets a thumbnail on Justin's interview.

 

The MTvoid part was interesting.  Seems like he realizes having Mohamed sing in Polish was a bad idea.

@phox
Bottrill, right before saying that they needed to move on, said he'd love to work with them again but understood that they needed to move on. I think they need to move back to him and that would be the change they need. He brought out the best in TOOL and moving to Joe Baressi (10,000 Days) was not the best move. Adam didn't like Bottrill in the beginning because he was more drum based and didn't know so much about guitar. My guess is Bottrill learned everything he needed to know about guitar by the time Lateralus was finished. Bottrill will be perfect...
