It seems Tool frontman James Maynard Keenan was up to his usual tricks on April fools day.

As recently mentioned the singer claimed to have found Jesus and as a result was planning to leave the band.

According to the official website Maynard admitted the writing and recording for the new Tool album is back under way.


any Tool fans here?

Not me, but I saw an April's Fool in the paper where BMW claimed to have invented a car that you can steer by thought alone...

Quite funny. I would never expect that from a German company :unsure:

I like to listen to Tool once in a while, especially to see their clips, and I probably wouldn't care if this happened, but what a lack of consideration towards their fans!

Meh....pour moi nothing beats two weetabix with a healthy dose of Coco Pops followed by leaving the milk on them for about a minute so it turns into a soggy mush...
