Hey i love TOOL and it's never too early to speculate.

[Harry Manback]

Exactly.

[Æmitis]

Instead of a Greatest Hits album, how about an O.S.T. for a Terry Gilliam movie? haha...

[svet-am]

Why would TOOL release a greatest hits (where you can get all of the best songs) when they could NOT release a greatest hits and you still have to buy each album individually (send more money)?

[slicknickshady]

1. Opiate
2. Hush
3. Sober
4. Prison Sex
5. Stinkfist
6. 46 & 2

11. Vicarious
12. The Pot or Jambi

[a788]

That looks like a shitty "Greatest Hits" to me. Also, what kind of freak wants a Greatest Hits album from a band that's not broken up or dead?

[Satival Tributary]

My ideal release would be:

Live DVD (2007)
New Album (2007)
New Album (2008)
New Album (2009)
New Album (2010)

And then armageddon because the Mayans got sick of counting.

agreed

[omnitronic]

The greatest hits will be a hoax.

[mike09]

The greatest hits will be a hoax.

nah just a decoy for the real greatest hits

[bringitdown]

In 2014 MJK will be 50. If we take 50 and multiply it by 2014 we get 100700 - which is almost 10 times 10000. Concordantly the album will be 10000 minutes long.

I heard it from a mate of a mate of an uncle of mine who lives in the crawl space under the loft.

[a788]

i take it you didnt catch my e-casm

[HalfASandwidch]

1. 10,000 Days
2. TOOL dies after being trampled by angry fans

That's what I think they got planned for the future.

[slicknickshady]

i take it you didnt catch my e-casm


oh i caught yours, i was talking to the guy who mentioned it.

[Spaceman Spiff]

nah just a decoy for the real greatest hits
"quoted for truth"

[Neel]

Why exactly do so many of you think they will take another year to make a live dvd? If they have been putting it together as long as they have, it could easily come out this year.

If you want material from the new album, however, that would make some sense.

I also don't get why anybody would want them to take 5 years to put out another cd, but whatever.

[CallofCthulhu]

If Tool released a greatest hits album out of their own concious decision I would stop listening to them forever, burn their albums, and piss on a picture of the band.

[Spaceman Spiff]

That'll learn 'em

[Opiate Son]

maybe they could to the Shrek 3 soundtrack with a guest appearance from the Black Eyed Peas!

actually that would be the 1st sign of the end of days.

[andyshep]

Tool would never do a greatest hits album.

Right on the money! Are you boys serious? No greatest hits album ever.... if you're looking for a greatest hits, better grab your Metallica CDs!

[ticksandleeches0]

if tool were to do a greatest hits (which they wouldnt)....they'd just re-release all their albums again and sell them all together for 50 bucks.

agreed

[Dominuece]

i doubt that there will be a greatest hits and there is nothing after 2012

[fortysix_and_tool]

I cant see them releasing a "greatest hits" album. I dont think they would do this to us, nor themselves. I could see them doing a killer "toolbox" box set in like 5.1 audio or something. RLY tho, greatest hits. LMAO!!!!

[rembrandt_q_einstein]

yea a new album every year would be great so their music could get stale. havent you noticed they take at least 4 years before releasing a new album? that way they have time to grow and experience new things. i mean cmon theyre not weezer

Those lazy fucking Mayans are always causing trouble for us.

When did Metallica do a greatest hits album?

[Opiate Son]

When did Metallica do a greatest hits album?

Master Of Puppets

[Satival Tributary]

Master Of Puppets
That would be a "Best Of". :P

[chodaboy]

Well, I am certainly ready for the next one. 10K days sux.

[knowthyself]

Tool would never do a Greatest Hits album.

Picking apart the songs out of order and context and throwing them onto a CD to just make money isn't them at all.

don't forget about the minivans :P. i hear it will also work on suv's..

[Opiate Son]

That would be a "Best Of". :P

i stand corrected.

[Spiritual Release]

TOOL will be retired by 2014, Maynards voice won't last. Fred Durst will take Maynards place and TOOL will die out.

[Opiate Son]

disturbing thought of the day.

[Agenda]

Your all wrong the next TOOL release will be complilation of TOOL love songs
" Time-life presents Tool "the LOVE conection" pry open your third eye with such smooth Love naking hits , Erectus shaft, 46 and boo hoo (baby won't please take me back), 10,000 orgasms, you and me and black magick, and many more... so act now this is a limited offer so have your credit card ready..... Oh who could forget such great songs to get your love making on to like Erectus shaft, or syphisfullitits

[AncientEnemy]

I agree, Tool would never release a Greatest Hits album by their own accord but don't forget the record companies own artists songs and they can do whatever they want with them.
eg: i heard that Pantera's greatest hits record was complied and released by their record company without the bands imput. Same could happen to Tool

But if their ever were one released, i think there would be an ordered pattern (for the tracklisting. Maybe something like this:-
[1st single]
[2nd single]
[title track]
plus 2 other standout songs from the album

So it would look a little something like this:-

1. Hush
2. Opiate

3. Sober
4. Prison Sex
5. Undertow
6. 4°
7. Flood

8. Stinkfist
9. Ænema
10. Eulogy
11. Forty Six & 2
12. Pushit

13. Schism
14. Parabol / Parabola
15. Lateralus
14. The Grudge
15. Reflection

16. Vicarious
17. Right in Two
18. Wings for Marie (Pt 1) / 10 000 Days (Wings Pt 2)
19. Rosetta Stoned
20. The Pot

I have a feeling that Right in Two might be the second single

[Dedicated_TOOLfan]

5. New Album (2014)

Let's hope they will stick around that long. I mean with this MP3 nonsense they might not survive but I do have faith in them I always have even when Lateralus was suppose to be their last I knew that couldn't be the end.

Why no one replied to this genius of a post, lol. Thats so great. Aenima is outstanding. After listening to 10,000 Days as much as I have Aenima, I'm kind of on the fench again as to which is better, but both albums are strikingly amazing. I'll probably end up floating back over to the Aenima crowd, but at least there was a time in my head where Tool topped themselves.

[bitter_enigma]

but at least there was a time in my head where Tool topped themselves.

Now, that can be interpreted in a couple of different ways...

A Greatest Hits release would go against everything Tool stands for, it would only feasibly happen after every member of the band died.

Another thing, i don't think Tool will be pressured into doing anything to get out of their contract. Danny Carey has specifically stated that they would not hesitate to leave their label before they meet their contract if their label ever tried to fuck around. (This i read in an interview with Danny in Inpress, melbourne street mag)

[tigerf117]

you piece of shit why don't you go fuck yourself

Fuckin right. Haha.

If they did release a greatest hits... oh wait they wouldn't. Thats right, it'd defeat the purpose of tool, because each song has a meaning, then all the songs put together make a central meaning for the cd. I think if Tool did survive till 2014, they'd prob start releasing cds ever 7-8 after this one. Thats just me, but im crazy, no wait cookoo, for cocoa puffs. You all love it - dont deny it ;)

[toocooltool]

I hope they dont do a best of... unless they do a whole extended version of songs..
