Tool bassist Justin Chancellor is sharing an update on their next album, saying the band has “a couple of solid skeletons of songs.”
In a new interview, the musician said, “There’s absolutely tons and tons of hard drives full of stuff. Some ideas go back to before 2019 that are just simple riffs that we never incorporated into a song. But sometimes that’s a bit like grinding the gears when you’re trying to resurrect or revisit them, so it’s really appealing to work on the newest stuff.”
He added, “We’re constantly introducing new stuff but then sometimes that’ll marry with the old material. We’ve been writing for the last couple of weeks, meeting a couple of times each week – we’ve had some really good sessions, and a lot of it has been brand new. We already have a couple of solid, what I would say are, skeletons of songs waiting to be finalized.”
