Adam Jones has shared new videos of himself in the studio as Tool work on their new album, playing his guitar and ‘butchering’ a David Lindley song. You can watch the videos below that Alternative Nation captured from Jones’ Instagram story.
Ivonna Cadaver recently sent out a tweet that excited Tool fans. She wrote a few days ago, “Bowl for Ronnie! @PinzBowling w/Adam Jones @Tool New Album coming out any day now! Interviews in new episodes to come on #MacabreTheatre @AdrenalinePR SOLD OUT EVENT! Interviews to die 4 😉 @YoutooAmerica 10pm ET eve Sat night #horror #Halloween2018.”
She has now followed up this tweet by quoting exactly what Adam Jones told her, and what Jones said indicates the album will be done in 2018.
A fan asked her, “Any day now?”
She responded, “This tweet struck true controversy! I have been working on new episodes, events, content. I couldn’t answer all! I can now! Adam’s words to me ‘it should be DONE any day now’. I said ‘I can’t wait, man’ he said ‘believe me neither can we’. Sincere. @Tool”
Maynard James Keenan was working on wine during the summer, but he wasn’t on tour, so it’s unclear if he may have come in to record his vocals. He is currently on tour with A Perfect Circle to promote their new album Eat the Elephant in America, and the tour wraps up on November 20th in Phoenix. Tool recently announced a 2019 European tour that is expected to coincide with the release of their new album. The band last released 10,000 Days in 2006.
SoloDallas posted the following on Facebook a month ago regarding the new Tool album, featuring a quote from Adam Jones.

-Adam Jones, TOOL
We are truly delighted, and frankly honored, to be a part of the writing and recording of the long-awaited Tool album. Deep gratitude to Adam and wünderkind producer Joe Barresi for their genuine warmth and hospitality and knowledge; we draw inspiration from that as we continue to refine & enhance the SD products. The new Tool demo material we heard sounded phenomenal: we are wildly excited for you to all hear and enjoy this incredible album.
