Look at you are skinnee

Dank you for crawling eighty & dee

Sounds kinda cool

Ah, yes. The Holy Trinity. A classic

Noah is a storyteller. Some of his stuff pulled from his experience, but a lot is imagined. For example, he's been with his fiancee since high school. He's said that he imagined what it would be like to go though a breakup during covid during one of the most bleak seasons in Vermont. Without spoiling other songs, there's a lot that's just a story. However, there are definitely some autobiographical songs.

Srsly. Tool is exhausting. It's like an audio workout for my ears and brain. Even the "mellow" songs bring soaring heat. Stretch. Hydrate. Dive in.

Yes, the Holy Trinity! Disposition, Reflection, Triad. Starts off mellow and hypnotic and builds up thru Reflection and then peaks with Triad! Such a masterpiece! It always gives me goosebumps. Love cranking this up in my car for my long commute. Tool just always takes me to another place. You definitely need to check out the live drum cam version of Triad to see Danny in action. He is just amazing to watch! There's an AI enhanced version for a bit better quality. Really enjoyed your reaction. Well done!

Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned. Its my personal favorite. The Journey that these two songs take us on is a absolutely mind blowing. The first reaction vid I've seen from you the Holy Trinity. What an incredible, thoughtful reaction. Please head down the Tool rabbit hole and keep the vids coming. Audio only please.

Welcome to the TOOL army, brother

Hey man don't worry we all are getting any explanation you are trying to articulate. We are all doing the same all the time.

One of my favorites from Tool, much love 🤘🌀

Yes it's fear! I love them

Supposed to be all in one shot to be fully enjoyed.

Figuring out whether it's bass or guitar is my favorite Tool game. Adam and Justin don't follow the rules!

Tool are masters of space, timing and most importantly...TONE !!

“Spiral Out Keep Going” 🔧🌀🌀🌀👁🌀🌀🌀🔧

I believe the reversed part you're hearing is a reverse delay that's added to maynards vocals. it basically sounds like a fade in before each line, but with a weird little reverse twist.

Next time you choose to listen on your own, do so uninterrupted so you get the transitions between the 3 songs, it's a great part of the composition.

This gets "radio play" which must be hilarious to the band ! 😂

Please check out the extended version (it has all of the songs from the other) but has a few extras that are really good as well.

I would highly suggest if you want to hear Danny Carey's best drumming, listen to the live version of Triad, with the drum cam.

Ok, have a listen to this reversed version of Reflection. It really does sound like a more natural vocal this way; th-cam.com/video/Ki8_hWfAw7E/w-d-xo.html

There is a drum cover of the last song (Triad) On TH-cam. ...long red-haired guy. I've watched it many times.

🛠️T⚙️⚙️L🛠️ brings out the best in All of Us 😎👊

TOoL “H” ,vicarious and stinkfist are amazing,,, chronological order is the way to listen and always headphones 🎧 and lyrics if possible great reactions keep spiraling 🌀

Great reactions to these songs! Stay on the Tool journey... 🌀

I got to recommend Descending and Invincible next! I think what makes the best Tool songs special is is the overall arrangement and composition of their pieces. Each member is a virtuoso of their instrument in their own right, and each of their parts are pieces of art in and of themselves, yes somehow the higher level orchestration and flow of the piece manages to still elevate them further to something greater than the sum of their parts. They understand what the music is doing to you psychologically, and they play with that in the most masterful way I've heard.

The guitarist, Adam Jones, is probably one of the best in world when it comes to tone, and painting a picture with the frequencies and timbres. IMO, he's carried the torch forward after David Gilmour's heyday. He's extremely tasteful and produces so many different types of sound from his instrument. And Justin, the bassist, just otherwordly rhythm and groove AND melody. He plays the bass like its percussion, bass, and guitar all in one.

Reflection is a timeless masterpiece. As in truly timeless. It could be played a thousand years ago or in a thousand years and it will retain its sonic vitality and power. Absolutely phenomenal soundscape with a primally powerful and meditative message. Maynard does use reverse reverb throughout this song which gave it that effect you were talking about. In my minds eye, D-R-T is a the journey of drifting up from your body through the atmosphere with Disposition, into the solar system and then deep space with Reflection, and then approaching a black whole, passing thru its event horizon and reaching the singularity with Triad. That journey can also be flipped and instead of traveling outwards, you travel inwards through yourself, arriving eventually, at the singularity of your consciousness.

I say you can really put all the songs on shuffle mode and never skip a single one of them. Although, that's the bike travel version of a tracklist..., it's always better to listen the albums as a whole piece. These three songs are way dawn already in the rabbit hole, I may say. Maybe, you can try 46 and 2, Schism or Rigth in Two (not saying those are easy ones at all, though) to see why they are so recognized within the wide spectrum of listeners. Just a suggestion anyway. Great reaction by the way!

Tool doing Tool things ... is pure magic. I often say "It's not fair!" when listening to Tool, not fair to other bands, other music. I can honestly say Tool has ruined almost all other music for me. Along with guiding me through life, of course. They are all so supremely talented it's a gift to be alive during the same time span as them. Great reaction. Keep 'em comin'!

(Reflection)…You make a good point about the lyrics sounding backwards. Could that be the reason why the song is called “Reflection “?? The idea of seeing your “reflection” is your own image but backwards? Just a thought…Or is that an over reaction on my part? Nonetheless it’s Tool! They’re way smarter than me and I wouldn’t be surprised. Always keeping us on our toes. Great read and reaction on your part.

It's interesting that you say the drumming reminds you a lot of Pneuma. When I first heard Pneuma, which came out nearly 20 years after Schism, my first thought was that it reminded me of Schism. I've since discovered from a number of reaction videos of Pneuma that other people felt the same way so there must be something to this!

Right on! It's a journey and exp every single time! Nobody bf or after is better than TOOL insanely amazing! So glad you are checking them out

Thank you for giving me the feeling of hearing the song for the first time. I remember I was crying. Cheers bud.

11:26 this section lawdd

Bret is obviously the correct spelling

They’re the same album, the 2023 one is the extended version, has like 4 or 5 extra songs

I’ve listened to all their songs hundreds of times. I’ve had kind of a love hate relationship with their music. I started listening when was 13 then around the age of 17 when Ten Thousand Days came out I started to take Maynard’s lyrics personally and thought, “Fuck this Prick.” I came back around, though, they are no longer my favorite band but one of my favorites.

Good observations on the band - this group of guys just make magic together.

Nice reaction 👍👌🤌react more to Tool pls

Yes

"This bassist; Justin sane" Chancellor

I call myself a Toolthusiast

Did you really think TOOL had a disappointing song? Poor dreamer! If you go back to the beginning of their career, the worst you will find is a good song... From there on you can choose between monumental, great, exceptional, masterpiece and, for the ones you really don't like, beautiful song. This obviously applies to those who are able to appreciate them, but if they are not for you they will continue to be noise, but I don't think this is your case.

15:00 bro is flabbergasted 😹

You also have to know the members and what year they were/ have been in the band 🤔

"Disposition/Reflection/Triad" aka "The Holy Trinity" is the ultimate journey experience. Need to listen to all three together. 🌀
