Acoustic rock pioneer Dave Matthews is a huge Tool fan. The Dave Matthews Band frontman recently shared his fandom with Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig in an episode of the podcast Time Crisis.
Koening complimented Matthews on his new single ‘Madman’s Eyes’, the first from the band’s 10th studio album Walk Around the Moon.
“I really found the single so surprising and fresh and interesting,” Koening said. “The beginning almost made me think of Tool.”
“Oh, I like that,” Matthews responded. “I like Tool a lot.”
When asked to elaborate on his fandom, Matthews gushed about the Fear Inoculum group. “I love them,” Matthews claimed.
“It comes in like it’s a little thunderous. I do like that. I like that. It makes me really happy every time that section comes. Even when we play it live, I feel like it’s just all of the whole band.”
There doesn’t appear to be anything resembling a collaboration between the two acts but never say never. Dave Matthews Band’s Walk Around the Moon dropped on May 19th and it marked the band’s first since 2018’s Come Tomorrow.
Recently, party officials running the Democratic National Convention in Chicago asked for increased security after they learned Dave Matthews returned to Chicago with his tour bus and parked it just blocks from the United Center, multiple moderate sources confirmed.
“This is Code Red as far as I’m concerned. The Dave Matthews Band are responsible for one of the most heinous acts of terror this fine city has ever seen. We will not have a repeat of that under my watch,” said DNC chair Jaime Harrison.
“This city is still scarred by the Great Chicago Fire, the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, and that time the Dave Matthews Band tour bus dumped gallons of feces off a bridge and right onto a boat. We are keeping a close eye on the bus, and we have Secret Service officers trailing all band members to get an idea of what their diet is looking like while they are in town. If anyone orders deep dish from Vicenzo’s then we will know they are planning something diabolical.”
Matthews assured people in the vicinity of the bus that they had nothing to worry about.
