Tool’s April Fools’ Day Tweet: Best Fan Reactions
Tool has long taken part in April Fools’ Day, but this latest prank is extra cruel…or brilliant. Honestly, it’s a little bit of both.
The band, who are currently working on the long-awaiting follow-up album to 2006’s 10,000 Days, took to Twitter to share a YouTube clip titled “Sounds of Night Crickets” knowing full well that some fans would think it could be a new song. WRONG!

Tool fans, however, took the tweet in stride and responded in kind with a number of one-liners that could only come from a fanbase that has been waiting so long for a new album. Here are some of the best reactions.
Reminds me of the end of Undertow

Clicking on this link knowing full well you’re about to get trolled while still hoping it’s a double troll and actually an announcement or w/e #BeingAToolFan

I see you’ve opted for a shorter song intro for the new album?
