Fear Inoculum - Title Track and Video



quote:


The LP, TOOL's fifth full-length album, will sport seven tracks but will run an astounding 80 minutes, with virtually none of the songs adhering to the standard format for a radio single. As for the concept of the disc, Jones said it came to revolve around the number seven.

Jones explained: "I took a picture pointing to the number seven while we were recording, and a lot of the riffs Justin [Chancellor, bassist] and I brought in were in seven. You don't really go, 'I'm going to write a riff in seven!'" He added, "Without being too descriptive about the concept, the main thing is that the seven beat just kept coming up, and riffs in seven kept coming up. It was really weird!"

Jones continued: "Then Maynard [James Keenan, singer] told me about a whole concept he had about the number seven. We were all, like, 'Oh my God! This is too weird!' Then Alex Grey [TOOL album artist] basically said the same thing and he has a concept that will reveal itself through video."


quote:

FEAR INOCULUM. Title track and album pre-order, Wednesday, August 7th. Links will be posted tomorrow, Tuesday, August 6th, on our band URL and social accounts. #tool2019


quote:

Fear Inoculum is the long awaited new album from TOOL, and the band's first new album in 13 years. The album will be available digitally, and in a special Limited Edition physical package that includes a CD in a tri-fold Soft Pack Video Brochure featuring a 4" HD rechargeable screen with exclusive video footage, a USB charging cable, a 2 watt speaker and a 36 page insert book and MP3 download card.

Inoculum roughly translates to planting seed of fear

Yeah, I was thinking it was probably the Latin root of inoculate, like getting a shot.

So the title translates roughly to " immunity to planting the seed of fear"

Def TOOL vibe

Mjk is in the studio as of an hour ago. So should be starting soon?

He doesn’t do live streams any more does he? Sucks.

Will we have to buy a CD or will they actually let buy the album from one of the streaming services?

As epic as their CD packages are known for, get the CD. They're some of the very best in the business. It's worth the 15 bucks.

I'd link some of the images from Undertow and Ænima but I don't wanna get banned.

He did, he said they just never discussed before it in a real sense. I believe him, since they aren't together that often.

Here's a summary of the podcast regarding TOOL stuff.

Tool announcements at 11:00 mark.

Fans have been patient, IG post confirming streaming posted during podcast. (Fans deserve to know first)

Lack of streaming was NOT because they want you to listen to entire album from 0 to 100. Simply no discussion about it, not some members objecting to it.

Maynard mentions about the typical Tool thing: "What? Was there a meeting about it", best Artists not the best promoters.

Name of album also announced during Podcast.

End of Tool announcements and onto wine.

43:20. The four of us are a lot of work, takes a lot of time to just get to an agreement. Everything is a fricking committee meeting and everything gets shut down. Not one sole perpetrator.

1:31:00. Lucky enough that Tool is popular enough where they can tour whenever they want and still make a living. Harder to do this with Puscifer, less margin of error.

I’m not sure pre sale will be Friday. They specifically said artwork and pre sale is TBA. If it was Friday I think they’d say it.
