Tool enter studio

2018-03-11 by Benjamin Kuettel EMERITUS | 183 Comments
American progressive metal band Tool have reportedly entered the studio to begin recording their new album, the long-awaited follow-up to 10,000 Days from 2006. A release date nor album titles have been announced yet.

This will be the fifth studio album by Tool. They are once again joined in the studio by “Evil Joe Barresi” on mixing and engineering duties, as he did for predecessor 10,000 Days.

Drummer Danny Carey is up first in the studio, and might record as soon as today.

This post will be updated in the coming weeks and months as more details are revealed.

I don't remember previous announcements of them in the recording studio being this publicized. All the band member's social media accounts and the main Tool one wouldn't be saying these things if they weren't true. Things are happening.

This is legit. All of the songs have been sent to Maynard and he's written the lyrics. All they need to do now is record them to album versions and mix, engineer etc. I'm sure it won't come out next month, but if all they have to do is actually record the album, it won't be too long. Safe to say, not another 12 years.

"yea but at this point people circlejerk the tool meme "coming out in 2029 hur durr so funi"

yap it is funny how long it takes to draw a perfect circle

tool put themselves in that position, not only by not making an album for so long, but also because they didn't pair themselves with the music scene in general, and end up a youtube exclusive. It's like "our music is so good that is forbidden to mess with it".

That and not putting an album anytime soon increases that trolling feeling. So hoping for a good new good album, i prefer to joke than to take these guys as serious as they do.

Drone from Tool would probably be really cool, like the Asunder and Allelujah albums by Godspeed.

I'm interested in how they'll release this. It's not 2006 anymore and if they want people to hear the new album it'll have to be streaming. A really nice surprise would be if the day of release they dumped their whole catalog, including the new album, onto streaming and iTunes all at once. A CD version and vinyl with awesome packaging would be available as well ideally.

In the light of the morning sun, shining through my drapes, I can only see a few grapes. Those grapes look ripe. I can't really tell unless I go outside and see them closely. What I'm trying to say is some woman at Ultimate Guitar asked me how it was coming, pertaining to the album, I said "we're done" and rolled my eyes. Once again, don't believe what you read as a misconception. Go to the belly of the beast and inform yourselves. If you haven't checked out Lateral Thinking by Edward de Bono, I would suggest trying to find it and read it thoroughly.
