Tool Announce U.S. Tour Dates

This is not a drill!

Tool has added eight headlining shows in May, bookended by their appearances at Welcome to Rockville and Chicago Open Air Festival.

There is still no set release date for the band’s new album…though front man Maynard James Keenan recently tweeted that May or June seems “probable.”

At least while we’re waiting, we can see them live!
