There’s Renewed Hope That We Might See a New Tool Album This Century

Tool’s webmaster is feeling pretty optimistic these days after hanging with drummer Danny Carey for a bit. He reports:

[Danny] added that they were very close to knocking out another tune, and that as soon as it was finished, they would send a recording of it to Maynard. When I asked if this was the song with the REALLY unique time signatures, he told me that they had already finished the music on that one. Okay, admittedly, not exactly stop the press news, but what can I say, other than that they are still grinding away on new material four days a week, and would be back at it later in the week (once Danny returned from the Las Vegas glitz, Justin from celebrating his wedding anniversary and Shelee’s birthday in palm-swaying Hawaii, and Adam hunting for glossy treasures at Comic-Com 2016 in San Diego).

Could this be true? Or are they just toying with us?
