I don't think I've seen a mention about this over here yet. Josh Homme mentioned this to LA Music Weekly. He confirms his involvement on a track for the upcoming album....
He said he provided back up vocals to a very very heavy tune.
He said the NEW TOOL MUSIC reminds him of D-Day, where the US stormed the beach @ Normandy. He said it is absolutely the most chaotic innovative piece of music he's ever heard........


I am stoked.
Are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys?

    Its sooo funyy to me how incestuous group of bands can be.

    NIN, TOOL, QOTSA, Foo Fighters, A Perfect Circle, and Even PJ!

    Trent has worked with Maynard
    Maynard has worked with APC.
    Trent has worked with people from APC.
    Josh has worked with Tool.
    QOTSA toured with NIN.
    Josh has worked with FF.
    Dave ditto for QOTSA.
    Matt Cameron worked with QOTSA.
    Dave worked with PJ as backup drums.

    I LOVE it!!! So many bands I love with thier fingers in all the different cookie jars.
    Ive nenver heard bad blood between any of these bands and they all seem to be friends with each other in some respect. Even eddie would have tie ins to Maynard through the RHCP hookup, and califoria scene.

  • Troy from QOTSA was in APC for a while, i think?

  • So the point you are trying to make is: musicians are sluts.

    QOTSA were on stoney's label
    trent worked with zack de la rocha
    maynard was on RATM's self titled album
    RATM thanked PJ on their self titled because brad used to be in a band with eddie
    3/4 of RATM formed audioslave with chris cornell...
    chris cornell worked with PJ on temple of the...
    ...

    ...

    i'll stop here because this could turn into a never-ending 'school of rock' kinda thing if we're not careful :D

    Pretty cool, although i never thought Josh's strong point was his vocals but i'm excited the new tool album hits hard.

    this was actually a rumor on TOOLNAVY started by some dumbass that got banned so I refuse to believe it unless you actually have the article

    Hey just wondering if you have any affiliation to a guy named Tylenol from the QOTSA forums? Cause his post is a carbon copy of yours.

    very well done

    dave grohl played drums on the new NIN too
  • This reminds me of a game we used to play in the record store I worked at. We would name two bands, and then the person had to connect them with the fewest possible number of steps inbetween. Kind of like that old Kevin Bacon game that people play with movies.
    The Man has a branch office in each of our brains, his corporate emblem is a white albatross, each local rep has a cover known as the Ego, and their mission in this world is Bad Shit.
  • No ties to Tylenol, I stole it from over there though, ctrl+v style. That sucks if this is not true, I was excited about the album reminding Josh of D-Day. Oh well.

    Jack Irons plays drums for Eleven, with Natasha and Alain.

    GUEST MUSICIANS ON THE NEW TOOL RECORD

    I've been receiving lots of email from people asking about any guest musicians that might be performing on the new TOOL record. Although I suggested to the band members that it might be interesting to attempt to get someone from the other side (i.e. someone deceased) to play on the CD, this didn't happen (that we're aware of, at least) due, for the most part, to contractual disputes (mainly on their end, it's sad to say). In fact, oddly enough, the ONLY muscians performing on the new TOOL record are the four members of the band, namely, Danny, Justin, Adam and Maynard. Go figure!
    ..and you will come to find that we are all one mind, capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable
  • My god there was actually useful information posted on the official Tool page... This truly is a banner day.

    When I look at parts of my CD collection, it looks like I make a real effort to follow these guys around. As discerning as I am about rock music, they rarely disappoint.

    Not sure how he feels about Ed now, but i do know that Trent Reznor talked a lot of trash about PJ in the past. If you consider that bad blood

    I'm fine with Josh doing back up vocals, just don't let him play guitar on a Tool song, I just can't see it fitting in.

    That is so true. What an absolutely worthless band website 99% of the time.

    indeed he was. he's on mer de noms and played on 3 songs on 13 steps. 1 of which , 'gravity' he co-wrote. plus that whole touring thing.

  • Yeah i cant wait for the new Tool album. The last one was awesome, Ticks and Leeches definitely bein my favourite song. The musicianship of that band truly is somethin else.
