This past Saturday (24), Tool wrapped up their Summer tour by playing their largest headlining show ever, along with the likes of Primus, Clutch, Fantomas, The Melvins and more. Before that, however, bassist Justin Chancellor sat down with the Metal Sucks podcast to talk about a bunch of stuff, including the follow-up to 2006’s 10,000 Days. […]

A long time ago, Tool put out an album. And while we’ve been throwing the follow-up to 2016’s 10,000 Days in our “albums we’re looking forward to in 20–” list for years now, there’s been little progress to report.

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 […]

While there’s still nothing definitive about when Tool will be coming out with their fifth full length album, even if signs seem to be pointing to this year, at least fans of the band will be able to see them play live again. The band have announced a handful of dates in the midwest and […]

Earlier this week, Maynard James Keenan broke our hearts when he stated that a new album from Tool wasn’t coming out this year. Now comes drummer Danny Carey giving us a glimpse of hope that new music could see the light of day in 2013. During an interview with New Zealand radio station The Rock […]
