Maynard James Keenan Gives Tool Album Update
By Peter Helman
Tool album when? Who knows, but at least it’s seeming marginally closer! In December, drummer Danny Carey promised that the long-awaited follow-up to 2006’s 10,000 Days would be out in 2018, and now Maynard James Keenan himself has taken to Twitter to offer a progress update. “Started getting music files from the boys w the word FINAL in the title a few months ago after 11 years of begging,” he wrote. “Words & Melodies 100% DONE on all but 1. Someday we’ll track them. Long way from the finish line, but at least we’re closer.” See below.
