I don't have social media, I don't comment on stuff. Elizabeth you dragged me out. You are spot on, no hyperbole, Tool finished what Pink Floyd started. There is no comparison to Tool. Every other band throughout history only exist to highlight how good Tool are.... (all due respect and apologies to Mudvayne, Slipknot, Spineshank)
“In this holy experience Choosing to be here in This body, this body holding me“ The idea that we are here, in this moment, on a rock flying 170,000mph through infinite nothing chasing a star we orbit through the void while we are seemingly the only consciously aware beings on said rock is in itself amazing. Then to think of all the things we are being able to experience as our species continues to push the limits of all we understand in pursuit for knowledge of all we see around us is beyond mind shattering, getting to experience this journey is gift we should all cherish 🕉
This is so true. I’m so lucky I was in high school when Aenima dropped. Managed to see them 18 time during the Aenima/Lateralus tours. They completely changed my life.
There's always the first time you hear it on shrooms to look forward to, completely transforms the song (and album for that matter) into something so profound and powerful it will destroy you and put you back together wrong but better :)
Pneuma was the first track I listened to from the album (I skipped Fear Inoculum because I had listened to it like crazy when it released weeks earlier) and I got shivers, goosebumps, my breath slowed, and I felt just pure emotion radiating through me, my eyes definitely swelled up
Was blasting this in my car in traffic on lake shore drive in Chicago the other day and the dude in traffic next to me looked over with an approving, knowing look. Because he knew too.
That dude next to you in traffic was me. I was driving on Lakeshore drive here in Toronto. I guess people are right when they say that TOOL transcends space and time?! Freaky shit!
Everyone in this thread is correct.....to this point. Tool is a journey. It is funny, how it took almost 3 decades for some to realize it. At least they see it now.
In August when this dropped, I looped this song for 4 hours, sitting by a fire close to the beach in Rhode Island, sipped my Cabernet, wept like a baby and started logging about my life so my beautiful daughters could someday understand what makes their dad tick, that’s some damn unbelievable power of music. It’s no less powerful today almost 6 months later! Stay amazing everyone!
It's one thing to say "this shit is inspiring" and then a WHOLE nother level of respect to say "I wrote letters to my kids for their future selves to learn from" Amazing!! Hope that fire is still keeping you warm in RI today brother... wow.
Yes this and laterals like frees my spirit well so many songs by tool does that what can I say but those two make my spirit cry out because it’s heard over the flesh finally
This entire album really is Danny Carey showing the world that he is the best percussionist in the world. He has surpassed Neil Peart. I know that is probably blasphemous to the drumming community, but there ya go.
Keep going with Tool. Not only will you have a spiritual awakening but you will gain hundreds if not thousands of followers. The Tool army is vast. Spiral out Keep going
So many layers to their music and deoending on what year or album you listen to. But I will say this album and specifically this song is beyond anything I have ever heard. Its hard to even explain with all the layers in this song
3rd🧿 tool army is like no other not even close to zeppelin or the Beatles as far as love for the band. Tool, zeppelin, Beatles are my top three and not in that order but tool #1 4sure. Im 31 grew up stealing my sisters cds and stole them all lol and even as a kid i knew it was different than anything ive ever heard
At age 58 I wear my Tool tshirts proudly. This band had an impact on me many years ago and now they return to bring more beautiful incredible music to my life. Thank you Tool.
This entire album is a masterpiece. I think you'll really enjoy a deep dive into their older stuff. They really are a once in a lifetime band. I bet you pick up thousands of views and hundreds of subscribers if you start reacting to their music
@@PongGod True... but reaction videos for Tool should never be done with their official videos for the first viewing - the visuals are an art unto themselves and only distract from the music. Stick with lyric videos for first reaction.
Since the record came out and my lil one (by the way he s 2,5) heard the first seconds of it he jumps in the car every morning to drive to kindergarten and he only says - daddy please, turn on the lalaa again... so as soon as pneuma, invincible ... start he get s the biggest smile ever on it s face -- god if i haven t done much right in life, but that lil man listening to tool has to be one of the better ones;) 😍
Saw them last month. When they do this song live, and at 10:22 every light in the arena blinded you....and it was so loud and so bright.....you forgot to breath for about 30-40 seconds. The intensity was unreal.
Omg, I took this journey with you! Virgin territory for me. Earbuds and didn't watch the screen, but I could hear you diggin' it, and I was on the same page!! I forgot I was supposed to be watching your page, I went SOMEWHERE ELSE. Where the heck have I been??? This is SICK. I'm awake! Holy cow, I'm awake, lol.
Musician most of my 52 years and sometimes i find new songs through reaction videos. I really dig this song. Thanks for reacting to it. Now i have new song to listen too. ✌
When they released their entire catalog upon the earth like an unstoppable plague the entire undead Tool Army burned and pillaged everything in it's path taking no prisoners and leaving nothing behind.
They got funk down to science. That slow rise to a masterful jam and just when you think your about to explode they finish it off as if they are gently setting you down....mind thoroughly blow.
Listen to 10k days! And then you have to listen to the hidden version of the song found by playing 10kdays at the same time as wings of st Marie followed by viginti tres. Start 10kdays and wings of st Marie at the same time and then let viginti tres follow after wings of st marie. Or just look up the perfect sync version on youtube
I have to say my favorite Tool segue song pairs are Lost Keys (Blame Hofmann) / Rosetta Stoned and Parabol / Parabola -- you want to go on another journey, those two will take you on massive ones, yet so different! Favorite band ever... And regarding the list, any one of their songs could be on there--there is NO bad song!
Danny's doing rolls across the tablas and opening them up at the end of each phrase. First time I've ever heard it done like that in any song. This is probably my favorite song off the new album. Glad you like it.
You are in for a ride my friend. Tool is GOAT status- one of the most impeccable discographies you will ever find. Only great albums. Close your eyes, pick a song- you'll be impressed 🔥
Discovered Tool as a young teenager-10,000 days was already several years old when I first heard ‘The Pot’ late at night on my local rock radio station. Spent the next several years delving into and relishing their entire discography back to Opiate days. Found some special physical copies including a Lateralus vinyl, which I still regard as one of the primary vehicles in my musical and spiritual awakening. I didn’t wait as long as many did for their new album, but it was a long 8 years since first discovering their music. I remember listening to this song for the first time at midnight of the full album release. Thinking not only about myself but the people who have followed this band since their inception and waited over a decade for this music, the fans who died waiting... When that first massive drop after the first verse hit me, I wept more openly than I have in a long time. It launched me out of my body. Even after dozens of listens, I’m still overcome with joyful laughter or happy tears, and filled with optimism listening to this song. The fact that this album hit #1 in 2019 gives me so much hope for the future of music.
Tool does a masterful job combining multiple key changes and time signatures. While playing Staccato and being melodic simultaneously. It’s otherworldly.
There music just cleans my soul every-time. I love hearing them play bc they can help you change into a relaxed, yet awakened state of mind. I love them for that.
These types of “reaction” videos make me so happy - when other people discover what we’ve known all along & let in the light of Tool into their lives. Amen.
I grew up with Tool but haven't actually heard the new album yet. I was hearing it for the first time as well. Thrilled to discover this new album stays true to their early stuff 😍😍This is my favorite reaction of all time! Watching you just feeling it all and seeing the awe on your face was wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
Yes!!!! I recommended you doing Tool a few videos back but I wish you started with their earlier hits. Pneuma's amazing though. New album after 13 year years and it went to Number #1. Try out.....The Pot, Vicarious, Lateralus, Forty Six and Two, Parabol/Parabola. Also do lyric videos with Tool because their videos don't always go with the song and it can be confusing.
I love witnessing someone's first Tool experience. So cool. You're absolutely right about it being a journey. Maynard wades into some pretty deep and interesting water, with his lyrical content. And the band always kills. Beautiful stuff. The wait for their new album was long, as usual, but well worth it! I'll be keeping this in rotation for another 7 years. 😆
I love that you said 'journey'. Some just don't have the patience to take the ride. Those that do, wow, damn, tool never ceases to amaze and always takes you somewhere you never thought to go. Glad you dug it, and gave it the time to HEAR it.
Child.. wakeup. Child.. release...the light. Wake up now child. ❤ I feel there is bits of undertow in this album especially with Adam & Justin. In saying that the growth in our band is obvious throughout this album. Can't wait to analyze the tracks past 2 because I'm still rewinding to FI after pnuema lol. Thanks for the reaction & thanks for the gift tool. Toolsince92' \m/
I love your approach as a listener, you always take the time to hear whats being offered before giving an opinion. it's beyond respectful, and it inspires me to remember why I love music so much.
I gotta subscribe bro you the truth. Dive down the TOOL rabbit hole. It goes deep. No music videos for TOOL only lyric videos. This is a well known thing just trust me. Pz
@@Illumignostic It's bcuz the video distracts the listener from the music. We've seen a lot of reactions where the reactor is talking about the visuals the entire time and missing out on the music completely. Yes TOOL has amazing other worldly videos but we want the person reacting and getting in to this amazing band to appreciate the music first
Those are mandala drum pads you're hearing when you think they are bongos. Danny Carey is a magician behind the drums and not another drummer like him on this planet! Search TH-cam for Danny mandala drums and you'll find some videos how he sets them up. They are very dynamic drum pads that can make any sound you can think of all across the pad. He sets up the pads so that he can switch complete sounds on each song they perform. Loved your reaction and it's really cool as a long time Tool fan to see people react to new songs!
As in the great words of John Stewart in the movie 'Half Baked'......."You just listened to the greatest band ever, TOOL, but, have you heard them on WEEEEEED?!"
Welcome to the Toolverse....we have our fine Arizona hillside vineyards to your left and a plethora of all the 'gasms at your disposal. Each time you listen to the same song you have a different experience. Truly a gift given to us mere humans.
Watched TOOL play live in Perth last weekend . I pretty much cried for the first 3 songs before I pulled myself together hahaha , amazing band . Danny Carey is a beast on the drums .
I absolutely love watching new Tool fans being born. I love your reaction videos. Seeing people start to peel this onion is awesome. For people who want to dig in, Tool has so many layers. Sonically, it is beautifully crafted. I don’t even consider myself a “Metal” fan. But, as it seems like you might agree, Tool really transcends genre. Then there is the odd metering. Then I realized it is often not a single odd meter, but often a lot of odd meters within a single song. Going between 5/8 and 7/8 and 13/8. One of their songs changes meter 50 times. Then, I realized sometimes Danny (the drummer) is keeping multiple time signatures at the same time. Playing 3-4 different time signatures at once. Then I realized sometimes her keeps one time signature with the low end in time with the bassist, and an entirely different, syncopated but resolving signature with the guitarist. Then I realized they don’t use over-dubs or synths. Everything you hear is 4 people playing something they can play on stage without overlaying tracks. Then, I found out they wrote their songs “backward”. The instrumentalists crest the song, THEN Maynard creates his lyrics over top of it. Instead of starting with the lyrics and singing and having the guitarist, bassist, and drum create a sonic environment around the vocals. Then, I noticed how the record with the singer’s voice set back into the music. It isn’t the center piece. It is an accompanying instruments. Then, the Global influence of their styles. You can hear Middle Eastern calls to worship, Gorgonian chant, R&B, and Blues influenced rock all in the same song. Then, Maynard’s lyrics; his intellect and the constant push and pull of his desire for Spiritual belief against his attachment to empiricalism and his drive to overcome who he is to become who he should be. It really transcends music. Love seeing you taking the journey with the rest of us. Highlight of my night.
By pure accident discovered your channel, and for the past 3 hours i've been watching your reactions and the joy you experience when you find gems like Tool! I've grown up listening to them. They are a True ezoteric experience. Best wishes all the way from Romania!
First one here👍😁👍
Thanks Brotha🙏🏾
I really enjoy ur channel
I know I sound like a broken record but...Tool..Right In Two will melt ur brain...lol🤯
Jeremy Kennedy and Wings for Marie/10,000 days will met your heart. ....then Sober goes for the kidneys and liver....we gonna run outta organs soon 🤣
BETTER THEN SEX!
Tool is a gift from the universe. We are lucky to be here on this planet at the same time. There is no hyperbole in that statement.
I could not agree with you more! So amazing
I don't have social media, I don't comment on stuff. Elizabeth you dragged me out. You are spot on, no hyperbole, Tool finished what Pink Floyd started. There is no comparison to Tool.

@@paulyoung8667 I have a few bands on a pedestal. U2. The Knot. The Cure... But Tool. There is no comparison. Let's be honest, it's next level.
“In this holy experience
Choosing to be here in

The idea that we are here, in this moment, on a rock flying 170,000mph through infinite nothing chasing a star we orbit through the void while we are seemingly the only consciously aware beings on said rock is in itself amazing.

This is so true. I’m so lucky I was in high school when Aenima dropped. Managed to see them 18 time during the Aenima/Lateralus tours. They completely changed my life.
ME: What Time Signature is this?
TOOL: All of them.
Right. It's 2000000/17 time signature. Very rare lol
“Yes” is also an acceptable answer.
Depends on what part your asking about? 8/8 7/8 9/8 13/8 7/8 000000.3/8 plus the Fibonacci sequence and the quadratic formula
Dig Radiohead’s time signatures as well
I hear a lot of RUSH influence.
This man accepted the light of TOOL at 4:56
Larry omg I rewound it and he certainly did! He saw the light! 🙌🏻
Ha, he did didn't he?
He became... Pneuma.
Larry Leas I agree he completely accepted the gift of tool at 4:56
LMAO, he totally did.
The sad thing is that you can never hear this for the first time again
Joel Nappi until you see it live anyway
Brain damage is always an option for round 2
Watching someone else listen for the 1st is all we can do…
There's always the first time you hear it on shrooms to look forward to, completely transforms the song (and album for that matter) into something so profound and powerful it will destroy you and put you back together wrong but better :)
Short term memory loss might not be such a terrible thing......New every time you hear it!!!
I'm not gonna lie, when I heard this song for first time... I'm a simple man: I cried.
Akuma Bakemono Same.
You're not alone. This song is unfiltered emotion - so raw, so beautiful, so real.
Pneuma was the first track I listened to from the album (I skipped Fear Inoculum because I had listened to it like crazy when it released weeks earlier) and I got shivers, goosebumps, my breath slowed, and I felt just pure emotion radiating through me, my eyes definitely swelled up
Same dude I was driving my car and listening to this. Suddenly tears started falling
me too dude!
Was blasting this in my car in traffic on lake shore drive in Chicago the other day and the dude in traffic next to me looked over with an approving, knowing look. Because he knew too.
Tool was made for LSD lol
@@chadanding8692 T O O L is LSD
@@majorbigss1 Lake Shore Drive? Lol
You're damn right he did.
That dude next to you in traffic was me. I was driving on Lakeshore drive here in Toronto. I guess people are right when they say that TOOL transcends space and time?! Freaky shit!
The Grudge
Nobody ever recommends that Tool song and it's one of their best.
Where your grudge like a crown🤘
Eulogy is a pretty great one too.. and Vicarious 😊😊
Saturn has yet to come back around
LumbeeMama Cimaglia Jambi ❤️
@@lbow09 yes!!❤️
"They set you up and they just smack your face off" --Jamel. That is every Tool song in a nutshell.
Especially intermission ya feel me
Nah, sometimes they just smack your face off
@@nick3718 into jimmy? hell yes the best one besides parabol into parabola
@@nick3718 🤣😂😲🤤
Nutshell is also another great song by someone else 🤘 but tool rule
This album is a modern symphony. Its amazing !!!!! Pneuma is one of the best songs they have ever recorded.
Hoju1976 invincible is prob best on album
Agree. Pneuma, tempest, invincible - in that order.
Andrew Simpson don’t forget fear Inoculum
Agreed, see you in there ;)
Culling Voices was i thought the weekest. Then it became my favorite. Point being, the album is unbelievable and it gets better with every listen.
Tool doesn't make songs!! They make artistic emotional symphonies that tell stories in a melodically mesmerizing way!
That's the best description I've ever heard about Tool.
Never heard a better description.
Otherwise known as a song.
They write rock operas. They let the music take you on a journey. There is no quick exit, 3 min songs here lol
( well, in early albums)
Best description of Tool I've ever heard!
I'm addicted to watch amazing people reacting to Tool's Fear Inoculum Album ♥.
Me too. They all do variations of the same faces I did the first time I heard it. It's so layered, complex and beautiful.
Facts I come to TH-cam for this cuz all my friends be talking during the song and I wanna slap em
I like showing Tool to all my friends so they can hate it. Man. I need better friends.
The first time I listened to this album I crushed two bottles of red wine and called all my ex's. I regret nothing
The first time I listened to this song, I forgot I had an ex
LMFAO
Ha !!! The song is truly amazing, the band ??? Easily one of the best ever, but nothing on this planet could inspire me to call those evil bitch's.😆
Comment win.
Takes to my ex wife for an hour about this song
I am so jealous. Experiencing Tool for the first time is so amazing
Doug Parker This!!! It’s the best feeling I ever had.
Very true! But I do love watching people experience Tool for the first time!
Just wait till you hear the old shit.....when maynard was pissed off....
Started listening to university radio in 92 and they came up one night...life changing!
You have discovered something special my friend enjoy the ride.👍
yup

Not blasphemous at all. Dan has clearly surpassed all other drummers except for Buddy Rich of course. Neil has to take a back seat.
Well it would seem your comment is now factual since Neil has passed
@@mmatthews90 That that is a huge bummer...
Y'all act like Animal from The Muppets doesn't exist, smdh
Some may say that your comment was a little rushed.
Keep going with Tool. Not only will you have a spiritual awakening but you will gain hundreds if not thousands of followers. The Tool army is vast.
Spiral out

Especially in a dark room on a high dose of LSD. I'm speaking from experience here.
@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath true :-D
They never come to Brazil so I'm fucked
The absolute nothing comes close to them
So much so I bought tickets to the back to back dates in Toronto
Next Level
This entire album is a masterpiece.
I think you'll really enjoy a deep dive into their older stuff. They really are a once in a lifetime band.
I bet you pick up thousands of views and hundreds of subscribers if you start reacting to their music
*tens of thousands of views / thousands of subscribers :) If you play it... the Tool Army will come
"Schism" is an older favorite of mine. Their music videos are every bit as unique and interesting as their music!
@@PongGod True... but reaction videos for Tool should never be done with their official videos for the first viewing - the visuals are an art unto themselves and only distract from the music. Stick with lyric videos for first reaction.
Darren Wozniak I second his comment. I’m telling you. Your channel will skyrocket if you react to tool.
@@MattMuirhead Yeah, I watched another dude reacting to Schism and the video was really tripping him out. LOL

Steve smyth unreal feeling, was there in Boston
I've never been more proud to have them as my favorite band
“What a journey, what an experience, what a great time to be alive”. Yessir! New sub based on that quote alone.
Thanks brotha🙏🏾

Lmao that's a good one!
That is great!

Word
a ”chocolate chip trip”?? 😁🤣🤣
Musician most of my 52 years and sometimes i find new songs through reaction videos. I really dig this song. Thanks for reacting to it. Now i have new song to listen too. ✌
You’ll probably love Descending off the same Album 👍
If you like this one, you'll probably find Tool's entire discography worth digging into. :)
The Tool Army has grown over the years and has taken TH-cam by storm.
blues2oo,
There’s even a fake Tool topic channel with zero content.
When they released their entire catalog upon the earth like an unstoppable plague the entire undead Tool Army burned and pillaged everything in it's path taking no prisoners and leaving nothing behind.
The joy on this man's face. Yes. It's a great time to be alive my Brother.
They got funk down to science. That slow rise to a masterful jam and just when you think your about to explode they finish it off as if they are gently setting you down....mind thoroughly blow.
Been waiting for this man to discover Tool. This is gonna be fun.
he already did sober
Invincible is another amazing one of this album.. especially if your a Gen X'er like me. Hits home.
Ultraspontane wait till you hit 40
100%
Makes you wonder if MJK is questioning his mortality as we all are?
Invincible should be the battle cry of middle-aged men all over America.

Everytime I looked at your shirt I thought "I don't have it WITH me...."

Might I recommend these Tool songs:
Vicarious
Lateralus
Schism
46 & 2
Jambi
Ryan Foltz dude that list could be 4 times longer and still be too short lol
The Pot
Anema
Once he's ready, for Third Eye & reflection.

Independence. Masters of it include Trilock Gurtu, Dennis Chambers, Dave Weckl, etc.
A great observation, I didn't even notice that!
Mandala pads
the dude is a straight virtuoso on drums. amazing drumming on this track.
I urge you to listen to Lateralus. It’s of a higher plane. When taken, in full, there’s nothing else like it
th-cam.com/video/W4aS7ZZwgrg/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/mYKLvYGqaC0/w-d-xo.html
you mean the whole LATERALUS album
Literally the album that all albums will be judged by for the rest of eternity.
That song is directly connected to the higher level of being.
I'm so happy to be alive to hear songs like Pneuma and Lateralus. The build up in this songs make me feel so emotional and happy. Awesome reaction!
You are in for a ride my friend. Tool is GOAT status- one of the most impeccable discographies you will ever find. Only great albums. Close your eyes, pick a song- you'll be impressed 🔥
Right In Two especially lol

Welcome to the worldwide TOOL family, my friend! Kind regards from Germany!
Discovered Tool as a young teenager-10,000 days was already several years old when I first heard ‘The Pot’ late at night on my local rock radio station.

Next song has to be invincible... Cuz it's the next song on the album. Lol great song after great song. No other band is comparable, I think
Ubiquinoxx Rosiles any of the grunge stuff is to me but this really defines art grunge to me is music
Only certain Grateful Dead performances.
Invincible is un-freaking-real.
FLOYD
Pink Floyd, that's it.
Tool - The Grudge
Tool fans don't recommend this one enough!
Riding my road bike to this song and cadence is spiritual for me…I never get tired of listening to Tool when I pound out miles!
Tool does a masterful job combining multiple key changes and time signatures. While playing Staccato and being melodic simultaneously. It’s otherworldly.
This sounds even more delicious weeks later.
Mmmmm! mmm! Damn right!
Was just thinking this. I just can't take all the album at once. I've been dividing it by chunks and now I can appreciate the whole thing much more
Like lasagna
This must be like dabbing when you've never hit a bowl.
More like shooting up fentanyl when you’ve never so much as drank alcohol lol
There music just cleans my soul every-time. I love hearing them play bc they can help you change into a relaxed, yet awakened state of mind. I love them for that.
Listening to Tool meditating with my headphones on literally makes me cry.
The Pink Floyd of the era.
Tool, the kings of rock, the kings of instruments and the kings of music. 2019 was tools take back the throne year
Dude just seeing your face and knowing how much you feel it is making me so happy.
This song performed live is life changing.
There is now a drum cam of Danny playing this live. Amazing to behold!!!!
New soul arrives in Hell: "You have been sentenced to be one of Danny Carey's drum heads."
The band makes the music sends it to the lead singer then he writes the song around it amazing process.
Very common
These types of “reaction” videos make me so happy - when other people discover what we’ve known all along & let in the light of Tool into their lives. Amen.
I grew up with Tool but haven't actually heard the new album yet. I was hearing it for the first time as well. Thrilled to discover this new album stays true to their early stuff 😍😍This is my favorite reaction of all time! Watching you just feeling it all and seeing the awe on your face was wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
Spiral Out Bro. We'll see you on the other side.
that is cool quote from maynard!!!
On the other side...On the other side...On the other side...On the other side...On the other side...
Thank you so much for appreciating that masterpiece! This album and all the other Tool albums have made my life a better experience
Every time I listen to Tool...every song, I get goose bumps, they are all Spiritual journeys...and I've been listening to them since 1992
"...I did mistake a guitar for a harmonica..."
I remember the first time I heard Rage Against the Machine too.
😂😂
Guerilla Radio will do that to ya.
Yes!!!!
I recommended you doing Tool a few videos back but I wish you started with their earlier hits. Pneuma's amazing though. New album after 13 year years and it went to Number #1.
Try out.....The Pot, Vicarious, Lateralus, Forty Six and Two, Parabol/Parabola.
Also do lyric videos with Tool because their videos don't always go with the song and it can be confusing.
If you want to do some crying, listen to Tools Wings for Marie Part 1 and 2.
Agreed. A beautiful tribute to his mother.
You have make that a trio with Judith from a perfect circle first
If you see them live....you will not be able to comprehend how great they are
Tool are mathematically the best band on this planet! The timing with all the instruments is out of this world crazy. Simply amazing
I love witnessing someone's first Tool experience. So cool. You're absolutely right about it being a journey. Maynard wades into some pretty deep and interesting water, with his lyrical content. And the band always kills. Beautiful stuff. The wait for their new album was long, as usual, but well worth it! I'll be keeping this in rotation for another 7 years. 😆
I’m loving your channel man. I love seeing you appreciate the music and I can just hang back and listen to amazing tunes 👊👊
Greatest tool masterpiece ever! It’ll take a year to sift thru the layers!!! “Eyes full of wonder”!
I love that you said 'journey'. Some just don't have the patience to take the ride. Those that do, wow, damn, tool never ceases to amaze and always takes you somewhere you never thought to go. Glad you dug it, and gave it the time to HEAR it.
I have loved Tool from Opiate. I can’t even say I’m a fan. It’s more than that. This songs makes my eyes well up
Opiate is such an underrated album.
I just wanna say that the audio in your video is perfect. Better than a lot of Pneuma's video on youtube.
Child.. wakeup. Child.. release...the light. Wake up now child. ❤
I feel there is bits of undertow in this album especially with Adam & Justin.
In saying that the growth in our band is obvious throughout this album.
Can't wait to analyze the tracks past 2 because I'm still rewinding to FI after pnuema lol.
Thanks for the reaction & thanks for the gift tool. Toolsince92' \m/
Shout out from Cleveland, Ohio. Been listeningto Tool for years. Cant go wrong. Good job!
Are you going to see them? We got our tickets the first few minutes they were released. Shoutout from Akron
Thank you for sharing your reaction. I’ve always said tool is an experience few understand they’ve gone through. You sir; realize that experience.
I love your approach as a listener, you always take the time to hear whats being offered before giving an opinion. it's beyond respectful, and it inspires me to remember why I love music so much.
Welcome to the rabbit hole that is TOOL. We welcome you with open arms.
I gotta subscribe bro you the truth. Dive down the TOOL rabbit hole. It goes deep. No music videos for TOOL only lyric videos. This is a well known thing just trust me. Pz
Tool has made the best videos ever. I dont know what your talking about herer
@@Illumignostic It's bcuz the video distracts the listener from the music. We've seen a lot of reactions where the reactor is talking about the visuals the entire time and missing out on the music completely. Yes TOOL has amazing other worldly videos but we want the person reacting and getting in to this amazing band to appreciate the music first
It's okay to do the videos if you don't mind nightmares. 😁
I disageee
Just focusing on the lyrics can distract from the whole picture of the music also
Set you up and smack yo face off. The perfect review of TOOL.
Definitely a masterpiece!
Tool is today's PINK FLOYD. JUST AMAZING
TOOL - VICARIOUS.
Wookie Wizard damn bro when was the last time I listened to that
@@matthewe293 Killer track tho, one of their best i think.
Those are mandala drum pads you're hearing when you think they are bongos. Danny Carey is a magician behind the drums and not another drummer like him on this planet! Search TH-cam for Danny mandala drums and you'll find some videos how he sets them up. They are very dynamic drum pads that can make any sound you can think of all across the pad. He sets up the pads so that he can switch complete sounds on each song they perform.
Loved your reaction and it's really cool as a long time Tool fan to see people react to new songs!
This is why I appreciate your channel. You wait and want the best. Thank you
😂 it’s so enjoyable to watch you listen to this band, there’s just such genuine appreciation and emotion on your face. Can’t help but smile
Welcome to wonderland been here 20+ years
Hell...YEAH...Willie Pete..!!!
We are blessed to have such musicianship left..music is a tool..enjoy the catalog.🙏
2yrs and NO dislikes, you're doing a fantastic job brother! Keep it up 💪🏼🔥
Please react to "Sober" or "The pot". Maynard is out of this world.
As in the great words of John Stewart in the movie 'Half Baked'......."You just listened to the greatest band ever, TOOL, but, have you heard them on WEEEEEED?!"
DMT to be specific
Welcome to the Toolverse....we have our fine Arizona hillside vineyards to your left and a plethora of all the 'gasms at your disposal. Each time you listen to the same song you have a different experience. Truly a gift given to us mere humans.
Watched TOOL play live in Perth last weekend . I pretty much cried for the first 3 songs before I pulled myself together hahaha , amazing band . Danny Carey is a beast on the drums .
Hell yea bro, this is one of the tracks i was gonna recommend, can scratch it off my list now.
This is Incredible brotha🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Good thing you had that stylish hat on, it kept your brains from goin all over the place after your mind was blown.
I absolutely love watching new Tool fans being born. I love your reaction videos. Seeing people start to peel this onion is awesome.
For people who want to dig in, Tool has so many layers.
Sonically, it is beautifully crafted. I don’t even consider myself a “Metal” fan. But, as it seems like you might agree, Tool really transcends genre.
Then there is the odd metering.
Then I realized it is often not a single odd meter, but often a lot of odd meters within a single song. Going between 5/8 and 7/8 and 13/8. One of their songs changes meter 50 times.
Then, I realized sometimes Danny (the drummer) is keeping multiple time signatures at the same time. Playing 3-4 different time signatures at once.
Then I realized sometimes her keeps one time signature with the low end in time with the bassist, and an entirely different, syncopated but resolving signature with the guitarist.
Then I realized they don’t use over-dubs or synths. Everything you hear is 4 people playing something they can play on stage without overlaying tracks.
Then, I found out they wrote their songs “backward”. The instrumentalists crest the song, THEN Maynard creates his lyrics over top of it. Instead of starting with the lyrics and singing and having the guitarist, bassist, and drum create a sonic environment around the vocals.
Then, I noticed how the record with the singer’s voice set back into the music. It isn’t the center piece. It is an accompanying instruments.
Then, the Global influence of their styles. You can hear Middle Eastern calls to worship, Gorgonian chant, R&B, and Blues influenced rock all in the same song.
Then, Maynard’s lyrics; his intellect and the constant push and pull of his desire for Spiritual belief against his attachment to empiricalism and his drive to overcome who he is to become who he should be.
It really transcends music.
Love seeing you taking the journey with the rest of us. Highlight of my night.
By pure accident discovered your channel, and for the past 3 hours i've been watching your reactions and the joy you experience when you find gems like Tool!
I've grown up listening to them. They are a True ezoteric experience.
Best wishes all the way from Romania!
