TOOL TO BEGIN WORKING ON NEW ALBUM… ALREADY??

520

ToolIt hasn’t even been two full years yet since Tool released their most recent album 10,000 Days, so we can expect to wait at least another 2 years before we get the next record, right? Well, maybe not. Apparently Maynard told MTV.com that the band is about to enter the rehearsal studio to begin writing for a new album.

For a band who usually takes 4-5 years between albums this comes as a shock. For a fan who’s used to waiting 4-5 years between albums this comes as a welcome surprise — or does it? Maybe part of what makes Tool’s mystique so awesome is the fact that we always have to wait… so… long… for new Tool music. But really, we can hardly complain. Without a A Perfect Circle holding things up (Billy Howerdel will release a new record under the name Ashes Divide in April without Maynard) there’s no reason they shouldn’t begin making a new album. And news that the band will soon begin writing doesn’t mean much; first they have to start writing, then they have to write, then they have to record, then mix, then master, then… you get the point. It’ll be at least another year before we get new Tool music.

But still; get excited! New TOOL! After all, they are the best band currently walking the planet Earth.
