Approach again in 2017 earlier than Concern Inoculum, a Reddior named Josh launched a Change.org petition for Tool to remaster their again catalog and launch all of it on vinyl. Tool drummer Danny Carey responded to Josh in an e-mail saying “The petition will not actually matter. We’re already within the technique of remastering all of our albums for launch on vinyl within the close to future.” Now it appears these remasters are coming quickly.
In an interview with Rick Beato, Carey was requested what the most effective sounding Tool music is in his opinion. Carey replied with two songs from the Ænima remaster, which has but to be introduced. Given the best way Carey talks about listening to it on vinyl, it looks like the remasters is likely to be arriving quickly?
“We simply remastered Ænima the album,” mentioned Carey. “‘Stinkfist’ and ‘Eulogy’ each sound unbelievable on that. The low finish, the best way issues are sit collectively and all that – these are two of my favorites, that caught out. I believe it is likely to be simply because I lately heard it on the 180g vinyl. I used to be like ‘oh my God.’ I forgot how good it sounded. I hadn’t heard it in an analog kind in ages.”
I do know what you are considering – “quickly” in Tool years could be a whereas. But when Carey truly has a take a look at urgent of Ænima, we won’t be that far off from the reissues. As for brand new Tool materials, who is aware of! Tool bassist Justin Chancellor mentioned in a latest interview with Metallic Hammer that the band would favor to not take one other 13 years between information.
“Danny Carey is 62 now, so there is not any considered taking 13 years if we’re gonna do it. We’re gonna must be extra environment friendly, and we have been speaking of ways in which we are able to try this. Possibly take a leaf out of how me and Peter work with MTVoid – as an alternative of looking at one another going ‘Come on! Get it out of ya!’ perhaps we may do a bit extra at residence. We’ll see!”
Chancellor did reveal that Tool began writing in earnest, with periods underway earlier than their present tour. They plan to “dive again in” after wrapping up the European leg later this yr.
“We put slightly work in earlier than this tour. We gave it a stab for a few months. We ended up compiling all of the concepts we had; usually once we try this we begin writing fairly quickly after, however we had lots of stuff developing, so we did not dive all the best way in. Once we’re executed with Europe, we’re gonna dive again in in the course of the second half of the yr.”
