tool is a very rare miracle of the right guys getting together. the elite of the elite. its quite the honor to exerience them in real time. their music will live forever.
I feel this is an often overlooked part of the song, for sure! The bass and guitar parts alternate one way, then they flip over each other, alternating on the opposite parts of the beat, and then finally they unite with the drums for the last part. It's so brilliant.
When he says bearing down at 14:24of the vid, the beat on Down with the crash symbol then going back into the main guitar riff gives me goosebumps every time and I’ve heard this song at least 100x when I was learning it on guitar lol then that mess at the end working together at the end is 🤌
@@mr.steinhaus6014 you’re right! It’s a pretty straight forward riff if you’re used to playing tool songs! Have played it on the classical, sounds awesome haha
In my 50's now........ still workout every day..... eat right...... live clean "ish"..... lol....... but the twilight is coming. This song ....... is me. It's a slow burn. It makes you dwell and digest. That's part of the genius.
Started policing in 1999. 23 years in and my body is falling apart. This song sums things up for me 💯. Old warrior trying to remain in the fight. Sipping bourbon and supervising the fng’s is my life now. Love the reaction. Love the song.
When Fear Inoculum came out, this became my new favorite Tool song. I thought it was a phase because it was new but it still is. Another one of my favorites, and one you should definitely react to, is Pushit off of the Salival live album. It's also on the Aenima album but the live version showcases Maynard's vocals in the best way.
More Tool!!! Loved your reaction. I’m a die hard Tool fan lady. That is literally all I listen to. I just can’t ever get enough of Invincible. Love all the transitions in this song. Subscribed and liked. Thank you.
OPH no offense meant but you seem to be a “weapon out and belly in” kinda guy LOL. I am as well! This is a great essay about what you can do in 7. The whole song is 4s and 3s and vice versa. Polyrhythms in pulses of 4 and 3 on top. It’s wild!
This song resonates with me as I get older than any other song, just started watching your reaction cant wait to get to the 9 minute mark. Start my work day with this every day!
I think lyrics are important, especially in a Tool song. However, I agree, it's probably good to focus on music and then go back and worry with lyrics.
Maynard has said in interviews that this is how their music is meant to be consumed. Get into the groove first, then go back and read the lyrics. It's as if they know that trying to do both on first listen will turn our brains to sh*t. 🤘
This songs hits me on a certain level. Very reflective for me. Checkout a band called SOEN. start with the song Opal. (Watch the video) it’s of them in the studio. It’s the ex-drummer from Opeth’s band. Influenced heavily by Tool, Opeth and Pink Floyd. Definitely worth a listen. Not a lot of people know who they are. Such a shame.
Vicarious is probably their best song holistically (this would be hotly debated I'm sure). But my personal favorite is Reflection. Can't go wrong with either. For reflection, I'd recommend listening to Disposition Reflection Triad back to back in that order. Cheers!
Give a listen to the band Karnivool. The song "Deadman" They are a prog band from Australia. If you can get the live from Sydney it is something to watch them live. They are similar to Tool.
i absolutely love this song on fear inoculum. you have to hear pneuma. the jump back to 10000 days and do vicarious and jambi, then finish with triad off lateralus. that my daily drive to and from work, lol
Love Tool, love the reactions. You still have some audio issues with your mike to sort out, though. There's some kind of delay in there, it's doubled somehow.
My 3 favorite bands are the Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Tool. And for the one reason that they are simply better overall than everyone else... genre be damned. So you can pick a song from any of them and 9 out of 10 times you're going to get something great. Tool takes longer to sink in but the effort is always worth it. I love Pink Floyd, Yes, King Crimson, NIN, Beck, etc., etc., etc., but...
Hm, I've never actually considered what Tool's more prog songs are. A lot of Tool is very prog-based, but, they're Tool. What kind of prog are you looking for when you listen to anything new? There's a big range of prog developed over the years, hehe. I would say Tool is almost like a metal/rock version of Return to Forever, or maybe Mahavishnu Orchestra, but with consistent, high end singing/lyrics.
Return to Forever and Mahavhishnu may not be "prog". So maybe more like King Crimson but mixed with metal and prog? Fuck it. Tool is their own genre. lol
brother your no old prog head but me im 66 and go back too the band Kansas to the Leftoverture Album as probably one of the first for me. But tool is i think the best one now. but besides Prog and you dont have to react to this if you dont want to but Look up Deno Jelisik and check out some of his stuff, in my oppinion the best singer out ther as far as strait up rock. shoot me a email or something and let me know what you think. he does a couplle songs , long time by Boston with Mike Portnoy on drums. very cool and the guy Deno just took over for Coverdale in white snake. let me know
au contraire brother, you don't have me by that much. Lot older than I look I guess, lol. And I was a HUGE Kansas fan growing up. Saw them many times. In my top 3 or 4 prog bands. Dave Hope is an extremely underrated bassist. Thanks for stopping by man!
Have not heard the term ‘Math Rock’ but if it means they do INSANE math with meters (holy crap yes). Check out Lateralus it was written using the Fibbonaci sequence. Maynard even said in a interview he regrets doing. It’s seems like ‘a sick move’ thing to do. He claimed [paraphrasing] it is so obvious in hindsight it he feels like he was shoving it in peoples faces. Color me stupid, I missed it for 15 years and was BLOWN away when it was pointed out to me. Cheers 🎉

Elite comment lol
Well said fellow troop
Tool Army is hear. Bring it
Masterpiece #51..TOOL 🐐🐐🐐🐐
F. the haters man, we know who likes good music.
The way that ending starts in tempo-chaos and slowly grooves itself together into a single beat blows my mind every time.

@@chronologicalorder69 it’s really not bad on guitar once you get the 4 & 3 pulse down! I loved learning it. Sounds BADASS on acoustic!

You can take the warrior out of the war but you can't take the war out of the warrior. ✌️

Thanks for sharing and thanks for your service brother! Appreciate you stopping by and commenting!
Thank you for your service.
Love our boys in blue! Thank you!
Check out “The Grudge”.
Btw the solo in this song is bass. A lot of times, if something sounds weird it’s the bass, not guitar in Tool.
You're right I didn't realize that until I saw them in concert blue me away
Yes…. The Heavy always comes with Tool:)
#ToolArmy #Spiralout
From the same album, 7empest and Descending.
****and of course please, more 🔥🔥❤Opeth❤🔥🔥.
Peace friend!
✌️🤘🇨🇦
Oh… if you fold the Tool name at the top over itself left to right it makes a syringe. Their art is always on point too.
What's makes TOOL so amazing is that every song is better each time you listen.

The Grudge, Lateralus, Jambi, Culling Voices - strongly recommended
Conversely, the first time I heard this song, the lyrics smashed me over the head! 😆 I love this shit! 🤘

Old prog head reacts to prog song about becoming old
This song resonates with me as I get older than any other song, just started watching your reaction cant wait to get to the 9 minute mark. Start my work day with this every day!
One of my top 5 Tool songs! The drop still gets me
Every time!
I seen a whole compilation of reactions to that drop in this song that's how good it is fuckingawesome
I think lyrics are important, especially in a Tool song. However, I agree, it's probably good to focus on music and then go back and worry with lyrics.

You gotta check out The Grudge from their 2001 record Lateralus. Absolutely incredible, and fucking INTENSE.
Yes with Tool listen first always
Tool is a band consisting of 4 fellas who could not make a bad song if they tried
Don't ever pay attention to haters. Be sure: NORMAL PEOPLE love you.
Hahahah kudos on becoming a "real youtuber"

You really got to try Beardfish...I think.its right up your alley. They are as if Yes, Genesis, Rush and ELP had a baby
Its a Mandala drum pad, a very powerful electronic drum pad.
Vicarious is probably their best song holistically (this would be hotly debated I'm sure). But my personal favorite is Reflection. Can't go wrong with either.
For reflection, I'd recommend listening to Disposition Reflection Triad back to back in that order.
Cheers!
#Toolforever
TOOL IS FOREVER!!
Vicarious Next Please.
Give a listen to the band Karnivool. The song "Deadman" They are a prog band from Australia. If you can get the live from Sydney it is something to watch them live. They are similar to Tool.
Pushit both the studio album version and live Salival version. If you want Proggy, go The Grudge or The Patient
i absolutely love this song on fear inoculum. you have to hear pneuma. the jump back to 10000 days and do vicarious and jambi, then finish with triad off lateralus. that my daily drive to and from work, lol
I've already done Pneuma and Lateralus, check them out! Thanks for stopping by and the suggestions!
Love Tool, love the reactions. You still have some audio issues with your mike to sort out, though. There's some kind of delay in there, it's doubled somehow.
Any Tool is a good listen…. I’d love to see you check out their cover of Led Zeppelin’s No Quarter

Subbed for more Tool please and the hateful comment….lol…
Can u do on the backs of angels by dt
Its a tom-like regular drum if im not mistaken
I commented before and I'll try again: check out Pain of Salvation - Accelerator
Don't feed the trolls
Have you gone down the Opeth hole yet? Their last 10 years' worth of stuff is some of the best prog there is...
Yea, man, check out my other vids! I've done a few and will do more.
By the way at 12.04 it’s the bass
TOOLARMY
YOU MUST LISTEN TO 7EMPEST!!!!
4:11 I wanted to be a wise Aas and give you another Hate comment, but, Your reaction was so Good I would be the Fool 🤦🏼 Keep diving into 🛠️T⚙️⚙️L🛠️ 👊
Ha ha, appreciate that man. Thanks so much for stopping by!

I dont know if Tool is a Math Rock band, but this sounds similar
