Following genre-hopping Ontario singer/songwriter Daniel Romano’s recent collaboration with two Fucked Up members comes a 22 and a half minute prog/psych epic featuring Tool drummer Danny Carey….

Listen to new songs by Cass McCombs, Nick Lowe, Jehnny Beth, Ariel Pink, We Were Promised Jetpacks, The Murder Capital (FKA twigs cover), Daniel Romano (ft. Tool’s Danny Carey), and more…

Plus: Caribou, Roadburn, The Nation’s Homecoming fest, Roots Picnic, Foo Fighters, and more tours, festivals and events affected by COVID-19.

Rage Against the Machine were scheduled to begin their reunion tour in TX on March 26, but their dates through May 20 have now been postponed amid the coronavirus pandemic, which probably leaves guitarist Tom Morello with some extra time on his hands for playlist-making.

Tool previously said they would ”monitor the evolving situation with Coronavirus” and take ”a day-to-day approach” with regards to the status of their North American tour, but they’ve now announced the postponement of all of their April dates, as well as a few in May.

”The health of our fans, bandmates, crew members and all of those that work in and around the venues is what we are focused on,” Tool say.

”As part of my continuing effort to get and stay healthy, I have critical recovery events on those weekends that cannot be moved,” Metallica’s James Hetfield says. ”I apologize to all of our fans who have bought tickets for these festivals.”

Recent Grammy winners Tool have announced lots more North American dates for their Fear Inoculum tour…

Tool drummer Danny Carey also said, ”I want to thank the Gods, all of ’em. It’s probably not a good time to piss any of ’em off.”
