Tool Eyes 2027 Album, Sphere Residency

Tool drummer Danny Carey revealed in a recent interview that the progressive metal band is actively developing new material with a target release date of 2027, potentially coinciding with a residency at the Las Vegas Sphere venue.

Carey shared these updates during a conversation with the Spiral Out Network, emphasizing the band's ongoing creative process. "We're working on a lot of new Tool songs right now," he said. "Hopefully, 2027, you know, that's the goal." The Los Angeles-based group, known for its intricate compositions and elaborate live productions, has not released a full-length album since Fear Inoculum in 2019, which followed a 13-year gap from their previous record, 10,000 Days.

The prospect of performing at the Sphere emerged naturally in the discussion, as the interviewer highlighted Tool's cinematic approach to concerts, featuring immersive visuals and multimedia elements. Carey agreed, noting the band's affinity for such spectacles. "Yeah, we're very much into that," he replied. "We're hoping when we release the new record, maybe do a stint at the Sphere 'cause I think we're the perfect band for that. We've been talking to those guys."
