Tool might eventually release a new album someday

I remember reading something about Maynard not wanting Tool albums on streaming music sites because they were meant to be listened to as a whole rather than as individual songs and blah blah blah integrity of the music etc.

They show up on Pandora though. Weird.

It's probably Adam Jones more than Maynard honestly. He's big into the visual appeal of album packaging. He's old school enough where he remembers sitting down with a big record sleeve. I get it.

This makes more sense than anything else I've heard/read. All Maynard's side projects are on Spotify and others.

WTF. Don't the parties involved in the lawsuit know what they are doing?

Tool Reveal Lawsuit Is Stalling Creation of New Album

Bullshit excuse.

Supposedly just an extension of Opiate, but it's fucking great anyway.

Yeah, I think they played that at the show I went to as well. I think it's just an extended jam thing.

Well Adam did say in one of the like 15 interviews he has done on the lawsuit and new album lately that they have been jamming some new material/ideas in between songs while touring. Not saying that video is a jam from the new album, but chances are if you have seen them recently you have heard snippets of stuff that will eventually morph into the new album.

haha, that Rollingstone article has some wonderful Claypool quotes. And that's awesome that they're putting out a new album with him involved again. The last one was kind of meh, whether that had to do with his absence or not I have no idea.

Maynard pls stop being a fgt and let spotify/rdio stream Tool albums ;(
His excuse makes no sense consideringbajillionsof radio stations play Tool

I enjoyed Green Naugahyde a hell of a lot more than Pork Soda and Tales from the Punchbowl. Those albums have some good tunes, but they are pretty awful overall.

APC and Puscifer are both on Spotify so I doubt that.

I'd agree on Tales from the Punchbowl for sure, but Pork Soda is fucking awesome and you should feel bad. Then again, I find that Primus albums tend to grow on me over time, so perhaps Green will redeem itself in time.

Yeah, I don't know what he's talking about. Pork Soda was amazing. Much better recording quality/master than fizzle fry/seas of cheese too.
