I've been getting updates on my news feed for close to 2 years. Put out the damn album already.

There still is no release date to my knowledge.  I think most are hoping this summer?

 

I don’t know it to be true, but I heard that they’re going to put their entire catalogue on Spotify before the album drops.

I think the first album I remember listening to was undertow when I was around 15. They followed it up with Aenima which was absolutely fantastic. I'd put Eulogy up there in my top songs. I didn't even know about Opiate until I started really following Tool after Aenmia came out and I'd say Opiate is a solid 9. They have quite a catalog. Not to mention Danny Carrey is probably one of the best drummers around.

I first heard Undertow at Hobart lacrosse camp.  I think I was in 8th or 9th grade.  Fell in love with that album.  I like them all for different reasons.

 

I think you could argue that Carey is among the elite drummers of all time.  Some folks think Maynard is one of the best male singers of all time.  Perhaps my favorite band member is Justin Chancellor.  Not the most talented bass player around, but I love his groove.

Huge, HUGE fan of Tool. Favorite albums are Undertow, Aenima, 10,000 Days. 

Didn't realize till about 3 years ago that James Iha from Smashing Pumpkins was the guitar @ A Perfect Circle. 

 

Maynard James Keenan is a genius, a brilliant military veteran and a brilliant winemaker of the Cadeceus brand. He put Arizona wines on the map.

I remember being a kid hearing Zeppelin for the first time- it blew me away, and I was hooked.  I first heard Undertow at college, and I had felt that same feeling as being a kid hearing Zeppelin for the 1st time!  I was mesmerized, flipping through CD with images of Maynard being smothered by a 800# female.  It floored me.  Undertow is still my favorite Tool album.  But they are all well crafted and quite excellent.   This new Tool I will have to pick up on vinyl.

 

Nevermind and Nothings Shocking were two other albums that were outerworldly that blew me away.

 

1990-1995 was an amazing time for music!

Pumpkins, AIC, Soundgarden, Screaming Trees, Sonic Youth, Kyuss, Sublime....

Then 95 hit- it was Sugar Ray and Smashmouth

The 90's- in like a lion, out like a lamb

Hell yeah! Been looking forward to this album release for what feels like forever!

Is there (finally) an actual release date set? 

 

Definitely one of my all time favorite bands.

I don't consider myself a Tool fan.  However, I think they are awesome and I've never heard a song I did not like.  Incredibly talented writers and musicians.

Some cool things not said in this video, The intro ends at nearly 01:12. 0,1,1,2 are the beginning numbers of the sequence. The first verse starts at nearly 1:37 which is 1.618 of a minute roughly and 1.618 is the golden ratio. The first verse ends at 2:32 which means the verse is 55 seconds long. 55 is a number in the sequence. Same goes for the other verse. And each time he sings during chorus its roughly 8 seconds long, he pauses after 8 seconds. 8 is a # in the sequence. Also 13 songs are on the album and the album is very close to 1.3 hours long. 13 is a # in the sequence. And if that didn't blow your mind. The end of the beginning is 1:37. The beginning of the end is 7:31.

I love my ShopSmith (combination table saw, lathe, disk sander, drill press, jigsaw, router/shaper).

 

It’s a wonderful multi-purpose tool.

I have a hammer, and some screwdrivers....... 

 

My wife has a drill, and no telling what else. Don’t be too impressed, she just might burn the house down. She’s scorched some walls in the past. Sometimes a little fear is a good thing!

I think you’re safe with the hammer and screwdriver ... certainly trumps one of these...
