This TOOL post title stinks….

I got nothing folks lol.  I thought by now we would see something anything but It’s a week or so shy of June 2016 and NO ALBUM.  At best we have Maynard’s take on Trump, his remarks in March on not being able to move forward, and his memoir getting a title.  All basically a bunch of who gives a shit.  I need a new album, I’m listening to Taylor Swift for christ sakes (ok I know lame excuse) haha.  But seriously we need this album already, so lets hope the guys can pull it together and get this thing done soon.

On another note anyone who ever reads this and digs beer and death metal should try and get to TRVE Brewery in Denver, Colorado and check it out what is the best death metal brewery ever!  Here’s their website check it out.  Good beer and about 6 blocks from Illegal Pete’s if you dig Mexican food too.

 

Maynard implies no TOOL music ready yet for harmonies or lyrics

Seems the only folks making news is Maynard and Puscifer anymore but we did get a sad little nugget from Rolling Stone’s interview with Maynard, found here.  Basically the implication and short of it is that TOOL have not provided him with any music to which he can write “lyrics and melodies”.  Seems 2016 is going to be what we are stuck with, hell maybe 2017 at this snail’s pace.  It’s become very hard to be a TOOL fan anymore lol.  But we will persevere as that’s what we do right? (or we just don’t have a choice hahaha).

With that aside and out of the way the article is pretty good in my opinion.  I love Maynard’s take on life and humankind.  The societal remarks are one of the few times I laughed out loud reading an interview article.  Brilliant brilliant man our Maynard is, guess that’s why we all dig him.

On to Puscifer, granted only two songs out now from the new upcoming album but I’m not feeling it yet.  I have to say out of the 3 projects Puscifer is the one I have the hardest getting into, I can’t figure it out.  Don’t get me wrong I love a few songs from the various albums (Indigo Children and just about every song on Conditions of my Parole is probably my most favorite album so far).

Well I am out of things to say I want to try and keep this primarily a TOOL blog and there’s not much TOOL goings on.  Take care, be cool to each other, and stay patient.

Expecting the new Tool album? Is no news good news?

So the saying goes but I don’t know anymore.  I am getting impatient as I am sure a large majority of TOOL fans are.  There’s the appearance on October 31st, 2015 at the Monster Music thing and “reveal new music” but who is that reporter kidding.  Any lucky folks get tickets?  Be sure to share the experiences.  As well any Tool Tips can be sent to [email protected]

Lets hope soon we can talk what we all think about the new album!

Ay yi yi

So it’s been quiet right?  I mean I love TOOL but W T F guys it’s taking FOREVER to get to the golden goose!  The biggest news so far since my last update was our friend and the best lead vocals in the world, Maynard James Keenan, had hip surgery.  I put on my Facebook when I saw it that there’s nothing like seeing your favorite lead singer from the days of high school getting a hip surgery to remind you how fucking old you have become.

Any how been jamming a lot of APC, Puscifer, and TOOL to help pass the time but I need NEW DAMN IT!  I guess we’ll just sit and wait and hope we don’t turn out like this guy!

More and more crumbs…

Seems more and more “leaks”, bits, and crumbs as we just saw an update on the TOOL Facebook page with a pretty cool accompanying pic!

Based on the post supposedly MJK was saying he’s traveling more to LA to meet with the band and things are going very TOOL like slow and steady.  Not ready for his contributions of “melody and content” but getting there.

Hopefully before we’re all 60 we’ll see this new album!!

Is this a test it has to be…..

Otherwise I cant go on!!

Damn I need some new TOOL as I’m sure everyone else out in TOOL land feels amirite?!?!?  It’s weird I’ve consciously or sub-consciously had my Maynard playlist (Puscifer, APC, and TOOL) on 24/7 lately (great for early morning workouts btw).  It seems I cant get enough of them again and hopefully that’s the world bending me to the will of TOOL and their hopefully soon to be released new album.

We’re also starting to see buzz and chatter almost weekly now that involve TOOL or their members.  Today over at Adam’s facebook page is a quick little diddy from one of the guys from Motorhead who happen to be recording in the studio next to TOOL (I love the bit at the end a TOOL/Motorhead tour *swoon*) and check out the bit of guitar work as well mayhaps a base for a new tune who knows but it was good!!

Second bit of recent news is Danny doing the drums with some folks from Mastodon called The Seagull Men.  Kind of trippy site BUT you can download two of their tunes for free (i’m quite liking Ships Wreck).

Lastly Blair.  So I’m pretty sure I signed up for the newsletter but I don’t recall getting it ever (I should check with my ISP to make sure they aren’t blocking them I suppose) but apparently Blair did Blair things on the last one and everyone is back to trying to decipher to figure out.  Also the reddit.com/r/toolband is a great bunch of TOOL fans you should add that to your TOOL web links stat.

So whats this all mean who the F knows but lets hope it means a new TOOL album and/or maybe some tours in 2015.

Until the next update friends keep spiraling out!

Finally trying to get this thing moving…

Hoping we can start talking some TOOL!!  Been a while trying to figure something out on this thing and just said fuck it and put up stupid WordPress to get something going.  It’s bland and plain but we’ll figure it out eventually.

On to the goods Cam from the TOOL Facebook group (cool group sign up for it I highly recommend it) is saying rumor on the street that TOOL is hard at work/balls to the wall on the new album now that their lawsuit is settled.  Is it true, is it malarky, is it another TOOL prank to get us all excited?  Who the f knows right we can only hope.  What’s everyone else think?  Chime in and share with friends?
