Want to know information about the forthcoming Tool album? Just ask the band. Or maybe just crowd-source the internet from people that have. Tool proper haven’t been very forthcoming on what will be their first album since 2006, saying stuff, then retracting it. But at Monday’s meet and greet, Adam Jones apparently gave a little […]

If you have been a Tool fan for the past decade, you know we’ve been waiting on news regarding a new album and we’ve heard every single rumor you can think of about it. The latest news we heard came from The Melvins’ Buzz Osborne who claimed Tool’s new album would consist of songs no shorter […]

If there’s one thing that many a Tool fan would want to ask guitarist Adam Jones, it’s probably about how he can be a fan of wrestling, right? Well, not exactly, but Rolling Stone did get the guitarist to chat about his non-guilty pleasure of professional wrestling. And while the follow-up to 10,000 Days wasn’t expressly […]

One of the most common metal news tropes for at least the last six years has been discussing Tool’s new album. It’s been almost 10years since 10,000 Days, and we’re not sure how long we will continue to bring you updates about it, but to keep the tradition going, here’s the latest one. As some of you […]

[youtube]https://youtu.be/ctt87B6hU1M[/youtube] Move over, Breaking Benjamin. While they did a perfectly serviceable acoustic cover of Tool’s “Prison Sex” that made its way online earlier this week, they just got blown away by a group of kids who mostly weren’t alive when BB’s first album came out in 2002. The OKeefe Music Foundation is a non-profit music organization that […]

If it seems like California might fall into the ocean before Tool is done with the follow-up to 2006’s 10,000 Days, at least some progress seems to be being made. And while their April Fools Day stunt might have fooled a few people, guitarist Adam Jones appears to be continuing to troll Tool fans. A […]

Last month, Maynard James Keenan gave us a little hope that Tool was “slowly” making progress on its new album. Now Adam Jones is giving fans further hope about a new Tool album, revealing that the band’s long lasting legal issues have finally come to an end. Tool admitted last year that a lawsuit going […]

We’ve been getting mixed signals regarding the progress behind Tool’s long awaited new album for years now. At this point, we’ve lost track at how many times a promising update about a new album seemed to get debunked shortly after (though to be fair, legal issues have gotten in the way). That’s why it’s rather […]

Coming up on nine years since Tool released 10,000 Days, fans are taking every single opportunity to look for positives that a follow-up will be coming soon. With their fifth full-length album on “albums we’re looking forward to in 20xx” list since 2010 or so, it’s starting to seem like they’ll never put another record […]

Well, this is progress. A few weeks ago, Tool’s webmaster said that writing and arrangement sessions for the band’s fifth full length album were “progressing nicely.” Guitarist Adam Jones added to the intrigue by Instagramming a picture of a song diagram with the hashtag #smokeonthehorizon. Early this morning, he Instagrammed another pic with the same […]
