Our favourite prog-metal misfits are dropping their first new album in 13 years and to say that we are excited would be a massive understatement.



The wait to hear Tool’s fifth studio album has been a long and frustrating one. And now, after teasing the album’s release many times over the past decade, we finally have actual confirmation from the band themselves that it will be dropping on August 30, 2019. Yep, it’s really happening this time.



To celebrate, Rage is replaying that time Danny Carey and Maynard James Keenan guest programmed the show back in 2006. It’s loose, it’s insightful and it’s a little cheeky – but we couldn’t think of a better way to mark the occasion than to dig up this rare footage from the Rage archives.



So strap in after the election and get ready to watch Tool guest program Rage in2006. But keep watching later in the night, because we’re also throwing A Perfect Circle’s hosting from 2000 into the mix. Don’t say we never do anything for you!



Tune in to the Rage Tool Special on ABC this Saturday from midnight (in WA), 1:30am Sunday (in SA and NT) and 2am Sunday (in all other states).

If you missed out because of election coverage, we'll be playing the best of 2006 Tool guest programming Tuesday night (1:27am) and Thursday night (12:51am) on ABC TV.
