Maynard James Keenan Says Tool Album Delay Isn't Laziness

(Metal Hammer) Maynard James Keenan insists he isn't being lazy when it comes to working on Tool's next album. The band are working on the follow-up to 2006 album 10,000 Days, with fans increasingly desperate to hear new music from Tool.

Responding with apparent annoyance to a question about the new album's status, Keenan tells the Wall Street Journal: "We're working on it. Do I appear to you to be a lazy person who doesn't want to get that done? I really love Led Zeppelin, and it's a shame they're not making more records, more records. But I got up this morning without any problem."

Keenan goes on to compare new Tool music to his other job as a wine maker, saying: "If the fruit's not ready, I can't pick it. If it's not ready I move on to something else." Read more here.
