With much controversy in the past few years, Tool has finally begun their long-awaited comeback in the past year and have finally announced a few NA headlining shows. This tour is centered around their festival gigs which include Governor's Ball in New York and Boston Calling in Boston. The rest of the tour dates are listed below.
Maynard James Keenan once said their music should be listened to in albums instead of songs. It's like reading a whole book instead of just chapters and it's how the musician intended it to be listened to. There's something here for everyone; let us know what albums you enjoyed!
In a 2013 interview with Marc Maron on his podcast, Maynard James Keenan let it slip that he was working on a biography with a friend of his. Until now, Keenan’s fans have had access to only an abridged version of his story. That all will change with the release of A Perfect Union of Contrary Things, coming out November 8th via Backbeat Books.
Rolling Stone are reporting that Tool have announced a short run of dates in January 2016
Tool formally announced the first eight shows of their upcoming trek, which kicks off January 9th at San Diego's Viejas Arena. The tour then slithers its way eastward along a southern route before culminating in Charlotte, North Carolina on January 26th. Tickets for the gigs go on sale November 20th; Check out Tool's official Facebook for more information.
Tool's new record is "coming together swimmingly" according to Maynard James Keenan who posted an update via Puscifer's Facebook page:
From MJk: I've been making regular trips to LA to check on the writing progress of my Tool brethren. Things are progressing nicely. Slowly, but definitely progressing. Nothing is recorded yet, but the guys are confident that the pieces are coming together swimmingly and will be ready for me to begin writing melodies and content 'soon'. I'm as anxious to get this album completed as everyone else. But as history will show, you can't rush these gents. Patience is Gold in this Sound Mine. In the meantime, as always, other things are simultaneously occurring. Life is too short not to create something with every breath we draw.
According to CraveOnline, the guitarist for Tool, Adam Jones, confirmed that a new Tool album is set to be released later this year. View an excerpt from the article below
