Got to do invincible next! Very relatable for those of us that are getting older and how that affects us physically and emotionally. Love the reactions!
we are descending as we destroy the planet and each other. mobilize! stay alive! this is one of my favs for sure. so freakin' good. I agree on Invincible next.
💜💜💜✌✌✌ You're so intuitive when listening to Tool and most times you're spot on...more than most I'd imagine. It's fun to watch you immerse yourself and as I've mentioned in comments previously you stay engaged and enthusiastic...even when you can't figure out the time signatures. It doesn't matter, man, as long as you enjoy and we enjoy along with you ;)
This music makes me think of the suspense and horror of driving out of a wildfire trying to get to safety. I know Adam Jones's home almost burned down from the fires before the album came out. When they first performed the song the backdrop was a pyramid and fire behind it. That might have triggered my thoughts.
This backdrop got me feeling shades of Undertow. So for no other reason than that, I'll reco the titular track, Undertow. It also has a water theme like Descending. But with drugs.
Through much of this song, the pattern is a 30-count phrase ... three bars of 7 followed by three bars of 3 (or maybe it's 7/7/7/9) but the total repeating phrase is 30 beats. If you're counting by sixes then it will work out but it will never line up smoothly.
I don't know if this is my primitive EDM producer brain inaccurately trying to smash everything into x/4 but a lot of this sounds like 7/4, ie. I get seven counts before it repeats.

This one is a musical masterpiece. Love how Maynard took a back seat on this one and let Danny, Adam, and Justin shine. Keep spiraling out brother!
This will grow on you to be one of the most powerful pieces of music we have access to.
it’s perfect
Word this one and Invincible from FI took me some time. But, then again, Tool is like whiskey and gets better with time. Best band, ever.
Literally cried to Descending and Invincible in concert. I've seen the FI tour 7 times in the last 4 years. Masterpieces!

Totally! The whole songs is like the story of life... from wind & water into land then back to the water.
My fave Tool song without question (and I’ve been a fan since they started!).
There are No Tool Army veterans, because we Never quit and we never retire !!
Love that you listen first then comment, very rare among reactors. Thank you 😊
Yup, Tool is the most incredible band! Enjoying your reactions, spiral out, keep going!
I hit like before you even started playing the song Because I absolutely know you're going to love this

7/4
Thats the nicest signature.
The 7 pointed stat is their logo. 😊
They tastefully switch between 7, 9, and 11 here. Its so nice.
Danny uses sacred geometry in his drumming so you are spot on brother
The GONG❤

I know exactly what you're going through!

Yep it's the progressiv rock and Tool are the school of progr rock..
Ive been a TOOL fan for a very long time and this song is currently one of my favorite versions of them.
I think you need a younger Maynard man! Go for H. next! Great song, very different style!
The Lyrics !!
🤘🏻🌀
Great reaction, I can relate. This song is one of my favorites. Every one of their songs is my favorite. 😅How about "H" salival version.
Waiting for "passenger" ❤
It's coming in the next few videos! I'm excited about that one!
This is amazing song🎵

Interesting, I've seen Interesting visualisations of Meshuggah songs as wheels and other shapes with irregularities
Love the reaction! If you wanna space out like this again try 7empest, also a masterpiece.
Most of this song is in 7...Danny is into sacred geometry
Next?
Eulogy, or H, or Parabol/Parabola.
Dancers
To A
Discordant please
System
I mean.... its time for THIRD EYE right?

Sounds like you are just talking about polyrhythms. Interesting you visualize it as geometric shapes and motions though.
Danny sees it as geometry too
Leo are you AI?
Please don’t crack your neck on camera it sends the ick down everyone’s spine that have ear buds in 😂
Lol. Nah it's fine
