are we all putting an embargo on any further information!?
Is there any new information out there to be shared?
Nothing more really has happened. Album reviews are out. Unless they announce the real CD/LP pre-order or a tour, seems like that is it till next Friday.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing; I don't expect too much for the next week.
I was on Toolband.com this morning, and had a good laugh seeing all the people who joined Toolarmy in the last few months complaining about the website & shitty fanclub service.
Welcome to the party, pal.
The website would never let me post anything on it so how the hell did nubbiest get to write comments?!?
itunes. it will download to my phone as soon as it's available. including the bonus tracks. release day is friday, but usually new releases show up later thursday night.
I'm waiting till Friday arvo. Have a couple of cousins who are Tool freaks as well so we're going to one's house with some Panhead XPA, some Hell Pizza and a kickarse stereo system. Though it could be a shambles as we're all gloriously old school and don't stream plus our iTunes is screwed LOL. Free Spotify should be fine if we download it shouldn't it? 😂😂😂
Stars are suns to other people.

I'm changing my tune, a full 180. wife and kids out of town for a few days. I wanna light one up and crank this mutha! someone help a brutha out!
Light one for me. Going to wait till Friday night. Don’t wanna listen at work. I only wear one AirPod at a time and wanna be able to concentrate on what is going to happen. Plus I will be stoned. Edibles and vape pen for me.

Currently on Listen #3. What I'll say about Tool is that they're unique to me because of their blend of sophisticated heavy metal, tribal sounds, innovation, and primal energy. For the most part, I miss the primal energy on this latest effort.
Edit: And then there's Tempest. Stunning.

Hey Demetrios, are you a Prime member? I pre ordered from Amazon.ca but I am not a Prime member. I'm starting to think I won't get the CD unless I join Prime?

I'm a prime member. Anyone can buy the CD. You don't have to be a Prime member. Being a Prime member I will get this CD in 2 business day's, free shipping. That's pretty much it.

I know anyone can buy the CD. I'm worried I might not get it because I have pre ordered limited vinyl from amazon and not received it. When I called to find out why they never shipped my item, I was told that they ship to Prime members first, and that after shipping to Prime members there was no stock left.

Oh wow! I didn't know about that.
The CD is still available for pre order. Hasn't sold out yet so you should be good.

So, as we approach release day, the last album on my weekly album listen is Undertow. And what I've discovered is... it's been a loooooooong fucking time since I listened to Undertow. How long, you say? Well, I completely forgot about Hank appearing on Bottom! That's how long.
Tool has really come a long way since the beginning. I love Undertow, don't get me wrong, but this album isn't quite as deep, technical, or introspective as albums to follow. But it still is all those things and I love it. I really enjoy the brevity and simplicity as it lends me to see just how much they've grown over the years. They're unconventional, challenging, and thought-provoking with their music. For the lack of a bettter word, Undertow is like the juvenile that someone believed in and pushed them to do even bigger, better things. (Channeling my inner-Saban here.) And they became one of the biggest hard rock/metal/whatever you wanna call them bands in the world. I compare my views, ideals, and thoughts around 1993 and see where I am now, and it's sort of a congruent growth. It's like watching a child maturing into a strong, unapologetic adult. It's part of the reason I saved it for the last week of my 4 week lead-in. Compare the oldest to the newest as both are fresh in the mind and ear to really see how they've progressed.

My guess is halfway through Pneuma I'll be moaning "OH IT'S GOOD! IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD!"
