In case you missed the news, Tool officially announced that their long-awaited new album Fear Inoculum will land on August 30 - ending a 13 year drought plagued upon fans since their 2006 record 10,000 Days.
And now the band have dropped a ton of new info about the record in a monster 20-page interview for Revolver Magazine, confirming that the album is 85 minutes long over just seven tracks, and the themes of Fear Inoculum center around growing older.
Frontman Maynard James Keenan offered his own take on the album's themes, saying:
"I feel like this is wisdom through age, through experience. Hopefully through aging you find wisdom in some of the things you've encountered. Learning from your mistakes, learning from your successes. So if anything is a broad stroke of this album, it would be embracing where we are right now, acknowledging where we've come from and some of the things we've grown through."
