Tool drummer Danny Carey has gone on the record to say that “the goal” is for Tool to have a brand new record in the public’s hands by 2027. He’s even gone a step further to say that the progressive metal band would also ideally like to do a stint in Las Vegas at the Sphere after the release of said record.<\/p>\n
When talking to Spiral Out in an interview uploaded<\/a> two days ago (15th February), Carey said that the band is “working on a lot of new Tool songs right now” [as transcribed by Blabbermouth<\/a>]. This comes about seven years after the release of their last endeavour, Fear Inoculum, back in 2019; the cinematic nature of Tool that they’ve come to be known for then supposedly isn’t amiss on the newer material. In fact, they’re “very much into” live performances and the cinematic nature of it all: “We’re hoping when we release the new record, maybe do a stint at the Sphere [in Las Vegas] ’cause I think we’re the perfect band for that. We’ve been talking to those guys.”<\/p>\n Carey then shares that it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows, trying to score time in the Sphere, a 336-feet tall and 516-feet wide ball that hosts a variety of entertainment residencies (reports surfaced last year that Metallica may also be having discussions about a residency of their own). Carey elaborated that it was an expensive process and that it would cost a fair bit of money before they even started making it: “It’s a very expensive endeavor, and it takes a while to get into the black. I think [you need to play] quite a few shows before you make any money.” <\/p>\n The discussions of the residency have included a tour of the Sphere, with Carey sharing that he had just taken a tour of it. “I haven’t actually seen a full-on show, but they took [us around the venue] to show it off. It’s incredible, man.”<\/p>\n You can watch the entire interview above.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\tWant More Metal?
