TOOL: More 'Vicarious' DVD Details Revealed
November 28, 2007TOOL will issue a DVD called "Vicarious" on December 18. According to a press release, the disc will contain the title video — which was for the first single from the band's 2006 album, "10,000 Days" — along with "a tour that takes you through the history of [TOOL guitarist] Adam Jones' visual effects work, and the process and people involved in the creation of the groundbreaking, all-CGI video 'Vicarious', as well as a tour of Alex Grey's CoSM." The audio commentary on the video was done by comedian David Cross.
TOOL singer Maynard James Keenan recently invited SuicideGirls.com for a look inside his vineyard near his home in Sedona, Arizona. The four-minute segment also featured interview footage with the normally reclusive frontman and clips from "Queen B", the first video from his side project PUSCIFER.
Keenan, an avid wine enthusiast, began his Caduceus Cellars in 2004 and unveiled his first three wines in the spring of 2006. He told The Pulse of Radio what the success of the project has meant to him. "It's confirmation that, you know, as an artist you can create," he said. "It doesn't really matter what forum, as long as you have enough focus and drive and you're a quick study. To be a decent musician or an actor, you have to have some kind of sense of the subtle, and I think making wine, that's absolutely crucial. You have to notice the nuances and be able to predict the changes and navigate things without panicking."
Keenan says he recently discovered that winemaking is in his blood. His great-grandparents and great uncle had vineyards in Northern Italy before World War II.
The debut album from PUSCIFER, "V Is For Vagina", came out last month and sold 27,000 copies in its first week of release. Keenan issued the disc through his own label and also sells merchandise under the PUSCIFER banner.
