Early word is that Tool's next album may well be out by April.  But we all know 
how much release dates love to change...

The Opinion forums at toolnavy.com are, as many of you have likely noticed, 
very very down.  Some folks hacked their way into the control panel, and 
caused a good deal of mischief, including the deletion of a few thousand 
posts.  Dan is fairly swamped at the moment, and hopes to have them back online 
sometime soon... if he is able to undo all the damage.  Of course if he can't, 
then the terrorists win, or something.

Launch Radio Networks reports: TOOL has entered the mixing stage
on its new album, according to sources close to the band, and is
looking at an April or May release for the disc, its first since 2001's
"Lateralus".

 As is typical for TOOL, few details have
emerged about the project since the band reconvened earlier this year
to begin recording. TOOL drummer Danny Carey told Launch
that while the new music was hard to describe, he thought fans would
have no problem recognizing it. "All I can say is you should probably
just look at the past TOOL records," he said. "It's just kind of the
next stage of development. Some of the tunes are pretty heavy on this
one. It's still gonna be weird time signatures and all that stuff. It's
just what comes out of us, you know. We just try to be true to our
chemistry when we're in the little room in here together jamming, and
what comes out comes out."

TOOL will release two mini-DVDs on December 20, both for tracks from "Lateralus". The discs, for the songs "Schism" and "Parabola",
feature the videos for both tunes, commentary tracks from the members
of TOOL and previously unreleased remixes. The group also reportedly
has a live DVD in the works, although when that will be released
remains undetermined.

TOOL singer Maynard James Keenan
is preparing to release the first wines from his own personal vineyard.
Three 2004 red wine blends will debut in the spring of 2006, with more
information available at caduceus.org.
