they had fall 2005 in their sights last year. whether or not they'll stick to it is up to them.

[Dan #3]

If they do have an album out this fall I'll eat my right foot.

[mrs jesus]

that's fucking sweet. i'd like to see that, actually.

New Tool is always good.

 

I heard awhile back it is going to be there heaviest work since Aenima, which is fine by me.

[Dan #3]

For myself Aenima and Lateralus are both tied in regards of awesomeness.

[ood_mutler]

I prefer Aenima over Lateralus, though Lateralus spent a few months in my stereo after it's release.

 

I havn't listened to Undertow in ages.

[Dan #3]

I'll listen to Opiate before I'll put Undertow in my diskman. Salival gets more play than Undertow in my house.

[ood_mutler]

The cover of 'No Quarter' on Salival is so good!

 

Gonna have to give it a spin when i get home from work.

 

Slow version of Pushit...so good aswell.

[Dan #3]

Like I told Christy that one time "Only Tool could make a cover of a Led Zepplin song better than the original." In regards to the slow version of "Pushit" I much prefer it to the album version on AEnema. And Maynard's Dick is just plain funny. Dick and fart jokes go far to win me over.

And last, Mario in Croatia writes that "Tool's booking agents have contacted all the biggest european promotors / festivals, and a tour is being booked for summer 2006." If this is the case, coupled with ongoing recording sessions, it means we should expect a Tool record before then. (Amusingly, the first news post ever to The Tool Page intoned presciently "maybe in the spring.")

that sounds awesome! man i can't wait to see them live again. they were the first concert i ever went to, so i hold a dear place for them in my heart.

 

and i also agree that salival is quite the CD, even if it was slapped together just to hold people over between disks. you gotta wonder though, what other kind of rarities and b-sides do they have locked away from us?

[mrs jesus]

aenima is better than crack. seriously serious.

heavier than undertow? that'd be sweet

 

as for b-sides, well, most of them aren't originals, but still fucking awesome.

 

also, i am drunk

Did anyone pick up the DVD releases of Schism and Parabola which came out a few weeks ago? I'm trying to decide if they're worth getting. The video's are great and all but unless there is some nice chunk of bonus features, I don't think I'll be purchasing them anytime soon.

[mrs jesus]

i got them

there are remixes and some commentary but

nothing extra.. the dvds are really cheap though,

so i think they're worth getting.

[borntohula]

the parabola remix is really good. and i found the commentaries hilarious.

[mrs jesus]

yeah, jello biafra is the best

[davidedward]

i heard tool was working on a new album. anybody know of this?

[ood_mutler]

New Tool album will arrive Spring 2006 US.

 

Word is it will be dropped upon us sometime this April.

 

visit http://toolshed.down.net for more news.

[mrs jesus]

the stickers on the front of the dvds say

'look for new tool release - spring 2006'

on them, but i guess we'll see.

it IS time, though.. it's been 4 years

[saturnine]

Those of you who purchased the DVD singles for Schism and/or Parabol(a) will have noticed an orange sticker affixed to the packaging announcing that TOOL would be releasing a new record sometime in the Spring of 2006. From all indications, this is where things still stand

[mrs jesus]

it would be so tool to have stickers saying they're releasing an album and then be all hmm no, let's wait another year.

 

sometimes i hate tool.

[Shiri]

Heh, you don't really mean it...
