Progressive metal legends Tool are really driving fans into a frenzy with all the teasing and hints at the release of their new album this year.

Now, guitarist Adam Jones has posted a teaser of a new riff on his Facebook, with hashtags suggesting that the band will debut the song it's from on Monday.

On his Instagram, Adam posted the below image, with the caption, "~*Getting ready for Sunday 🤘🏽🔥💣#TOOL #TOOLlive #Nomad #Bitesize #lovethenonhaters #WelcomeToRockvilleFestival #Rockville #RockvilleFestival2019 #RockvilleFestival #Jacksonville #Florida #America #MakingDreamsComeTrue #TheFastingIsOver #BG"
