Red Mosquito

that cover art screams of a bunch of 50 year old dudes trying to be edgy.

but it'll be huge at Hot Topic, so...

Was it inspired by Alice Cooper?

i think it was inspired by the Klopeks from The 'Burbs

pretty sure Maynard is just trolling the fuck out of everyone.

I thought exactly this.

us trolls think alike.

i think the pic you all disliked so much was just a promo still for the new single.

Thanks Stickman, I think you're right.

Maynard crawled up his own ass long ago and hasn't come out. For me, tool has two great albums, undertow and aenima. Perfect circle has a handful of great songs. As for puscifier, I won't dignify them with a comment (which is a comment in itself)

What can Maynard possibly have left to write about. Frost ruining his grape crop? He has come across like a pretentious twat for over a decade now.

It is really quite unbelievable how many fans he still has given his apparent contempt and the level of productivity he and his bands have these days.

Pack it in Maynard, you're done.

Or maybe I just grew out of his music, and nostalgia is the lense I love those first albums through.

Never really been a huge APC fan, but I quite like these new batch of tunes.

Soooooo this is basically every angry tool fan for the past several years...

except the part where you trashed Lateralus, indirectly by omission. I mean, its a fucking masterpiece!

Anyway, I love TooL and will see the greatest show in rock any chance I get, APC changed my life (so I'm extending them a little latitude with the most recent crop of songs), and Puscifer can be a LOT of fun if you allow it... Srsly... Wrestling matches as an opening act?! Inviting Ed and Mark Messier (I think) onstage to chill and drink wine in the middle of the set?! Carina FUCKING Round

These artists are living the dream and don't owe us sh!t!

I agree

Oh, and only half of that artwork is Maynard... the bald half is Billy Howerdell.

Loved these guys when I was in high school but I have no interest in even listening to the new songs.

The Doomed is bad. Sounds like watered down Avenged Sevenfold.

Is this really the new album cover? It's bloody dreadful.

I kind of like that thoughts and prayers song. The Doomed and Disillusioned are horrible though.

Apparently not. I believe it's just the artwork for the single TalkTalk.
