Every member of a band has their way of trying to relax, like how Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan likes to play Jenga. Jenga is a game that requires careful hand-eye coordination as players need to slowly remove wooden blocks, trying to avoid toppling the whole structure in front of them. It’s a game you want to play in a quiet and calm setting – not behind that of Tool drummer Danny Carey as he’s hammering away at the drums.
Posted a few days ago on Keenan’s Instagram account, a video was shared involving him trying to carefully go about a game of Jenga; the camera then pans left, showing Carey playing away at the drums. The intensity of Carey’s playing ends up resulting in a hilarious response from Keenan when his game falls apart. You can find the video below:

Tool also announced a special ultra-deluxe pressing of Fear Inoculum, but it initially had a pretty intense price tag. That said, a retail version of the vinyl set has also been announced.
