So I'm surfing websites looking for some cheap April Fools laughs, and come upon this on www.toolband.com:
Now I would say that's an April Fools joke...but it was posted yesterday. Maybe they're just being tricky, because nobody would fall for it if it were posted today? I wouldn't be surprised if the Tool album was delayed further either though.

REMEMBER, DONT KILL THE MESSENGER
You know the old saying, no news is good news, well that was the case as far as the recording process was going for the new Tool CD, but now things may have changed a bit. Yesterday, when I went to the studio to give Maynard a bottle of wine (a 1992 Maya) for winning the bet that I had with him involving his new film Sleeping Dogs Lie (I lost by default, not being able to attend the Sedona screening), not only wasnt Maynard there, but, in what seems to be a case of enantiodromia (something becoming its opposite) if ever there was one (!), I was told the reason why he wasnt there. I wish this post was dated April 1, but, unfortunately, it isnt. Like a doctor giving a patient a straight, honest answer to a medical diagnosis, without sugar-coating the truth, heres exactly what I was told: Maynard has found Jesus. This will come as a complete shock to most (but not all) of you, as it did to me. In fact, it just seemed like another MJK prank until I talked to the one person who I believe would know if all this was legit or not. After nearly an hour on the phone with this person, the answer I received was that Maynard has indeed found Jesus and that, for this reason, hes abandoned the project for the time being, if not entirely. I dont know what the f**k is in the water these days, but hopefully a black jelly belly will turn up in that golden bowl thats all I can think to say at this point. Before leaving the studio, I watched as Danny made arrangements to go play some golf, while Adam and Justin kept working on a particular song. So, in case you missed it (those who dont read the whole post), heres today's news: Maynard has found Jesus
