Will be interesting to see what other new collectibles the band may have lined up...hopefully some new vinyl releases.
Sounds great, but to be honest I've more or less given up on this actually happening. When it does I'll be there though.
The relentless waves of shitty merch have drained me somewhat. I don't mind the FI releases, but the pillows, the blankets, the shitty jackets, the $1000 skulls. Tool have get closer to KISS every passing day.
They're the fucking man though...

They have the exact same name for their pay pigs club as Kiss, they're not exactly hiding it.

Indeed, though back then it felt more like they were taking the piss, rather than a prophecy

what is with the sudden explosion of merch the last year? they went forever without making new shirts or even getting new stock of sizes with the 6 designs they used to sell, and suddenly they are Bed Bath and Beyond.

I suspect they sold their merchandising rights to a company more interested in making money than cool stuff.

The "where's the vinyl" shirt? It's clearly a piss-take. And tbh the best of their recent merch

Yep that's the one. I'm assuming , not to be outdone by metallica, they've signed a deal with stranger things for next season and AJ has designed their latest villain.

Well, Stranger Things first monster (the Demogorgon) was played by Mark Steger from Osseus Labyrint, so maybe not that much of a stretch.

Is that the team that were contortionists back on the lateralus tour? Funnily enough I didn't mind the Demogorgon, it was that latest season with Vecna I think his name name was, looked pretty damn tacky & this latest shirt design looks like a bad rip off of that.

The same. They were also in the “Schism” video.

I know I'm no longer allowed any closer than 50 metres to Adams home which since he blocked me on all platforms has made it really fucking hard to keep in touch with him.
Junior, reckon you could maybe hook us up with a contact for him?

Speaking of vinyl, I thought this was kind of interesting:
Sounds like maybe they were thinking of a repress at one time, 2002 or so?
