We might not be getting a new TOOL album this year, but former TOOL bassist Paul D'Amour will bring new music from his project Lesser Key to the public. Lesser Key are an interesting mash-up of what I'd imagine Deftones would sound like if they were trying to be a little grittier with an added side of heavy. We've got proof too!

So Lesser Key consists of D'Amour, Andrew Zamudia, Brett Fanger and Justin Hansen. It's okay if you only know one of those guys; there's no specifications on who plays what in the band anywhere right now, though I guess that isn't super important. What is important is that according to a press release, the group have finished their debut EP with producer Sylvia Massey (System of a Down, Tool, Johnny Cash) and will be releasing it sometime in later 2013.
