A dedicated fan has created a guide to celebrate Tool’s most iconic song moments right at midnight on New Year’s Eve. This guide includes timestamps for tracks from albums like Opiate, Undertow, Ænima, Lateralus, 10,000 Days, and Fear Inoculum, ensuring something special happens as the clock strikes twelve.
Every December, this fan shares and expands the list, and this year’s edition is bigger than ever. It features timestamps for entire albums and individual tracks. “My fellow fans! It’s that time of year again! I’m excited to share my list of Tool songs to ring in the new year! Start at the given timestamp and watch the magic unfold,” the fan wrote.
Each timestamp has a special meaning. For example, the timestamp for “” from Ænima is marked as “to say GOODBYE to 2025,” since it’s the last lyric shouted by Maynard James Keenan in the song. The timestamp for “” from Lateralus is meant “to start your new year with a scream.”
The guide highlights popular tracks like “” at 11:56:03, “” at 11:55:42, and “” at 11:54:54. The transition for “” begins at 11:56:56, dropping right at midnight. Fans have praised the post, and full album timestamps are included for those who want to enjoy entire records. Undertow starts at 11:08:07 for a cleansing experience, while Fear Inoculum kicks off at 10:49:25.
This annual tradition brings joy to fans, making New Year’s Eve a memorable celebration with Tool’s powerful music.
