After a 13-year hiatus, Tool are finally ready release a new album. Metal Injection reports that the band shared the news at a show in Birmingham, AL last night, flashing the release date on a screen: August 30. The band has been teasing the upcoming release incrementally over the past few years; last week, they debuted two new songs at a show in Florida.
