The song, titled “Heartbreaker,” is the lead single from the band’s upcoming “Aftershock” album, and it kicks so hard it’s barely legal. Classic motorhead, seriously awesome, makes me hardly wait for the entire album! A few days ago, Motorhead also revealed the entire track listing and cover. “Aftershock” will be released…

We’ve been hearing rumors for almost a year now, but nothing official came out – until now that is. Singer Maynard James Keenan seemingly confirmed what fans have been yearning to hear: he is working on a new Tool album, probably set for release in 2014.
