#TOOL #Opiate
In case you ever wonder what Tool covering a Tool song sounds like.
doesn't live up to the Tool version
@@vladamirtepes5567 personally I like the Tool version much better
I think Tool appreciates this Tool cover of their Tool song.
Wait...this isnt A Perfect Circle? I know they try hard to sound like Maynard sometimes. 🧐
Jesus Christ they absolutely Puscifer'd the cunt out of this one.... oh wait, is this a flashback, I think I'm having dejavu and amnesia at the same time
Holy fuck, Maynard nailed the scream. And Danny in the new, extended parts is a fucking monster. Damn.
Hey even did the scream live when I saw them January....but they skipped the new instrumental in the middle.
Justin has great bass here too, and Adam really brought it with the guitar
is this really new or like a old demo but reworked???
@@Jupaerian Opiate is an old song by itself
@@Jupaerian i think they re-recorded it. this def doesnt sound like young maynard or any of them in general back then when it was originally recorded
A year ago I was depressed, not sober, angry at life, and continuously failing in life. Then I found tool. Now I do all the same things but with tool in my headphones 🤘🏼
Same. Except I have known Tool for more than 10 years. Nothing changed.
Me too 🖤🖤🖤🖤✌🏻
Welcome my friend. Jump right in, the water is fine
Amen
🖤🖤🖤🤘🤘🤘💋✌🏻
if you ever go see ANY band live if even once in your entire life make damn sure it's TOOL.
I saw them in 2006 for the 10,000 Days tour and they were incredibly boring. I had been waiting to see them for years and they disappointed so bad. I even dragged two non-Tool fan friends to see it and they were such a letdown. Also we had to wait for freaking ages because the band had security confiscate everyone's phones because they didn't want anyone to record (why do you think that is? 'Cause they know they're boring lol). Then the queue to get our phones back took another goddamn hour.
Oh well. Maybe it was bad because of the audio production setup that concert. The sound all bled together and was terrible.
Back in the day it seemed like they were always in town, so I saw them 7 times between Kzoo and Detroit starting with the very first concert I saw, Tool, Failure, and The Flaming Lips in Pontiac at the Phoenix Center. It is an outdoor venue on the top of a parking structure, and to this day it was the only time I have felt uneasy in a pit. It wasn't even a pit, it was the whole crowd falling on each other, but you didn't hit the ground, you just leaned into the person next to you and so on. Great band to see live. I saw them at Wings stadium too, and it is etched in my brain for several reasons, I was just some dumb, punk kid that didn't know how much I should be savoring the moment. How time flies.
Amen ! Fuck
You speak the truth!!
done
God I love a 3 minute TH-cam AD in the middle of a TOOL song it’s so ethereal and magical.
Get yourself pro. Worth it.
Tool be playing jokes on us
adblock plus
The same for me. I litteraly crashed my ps4 pad on the screen of the telephone :)
Agreed
Despite the world falling apart it's a great time to be a Tool fan.
Truth
Damn right! Jam on!
What better artist to listen to during the apocalypse ? I'll be listening to invincible when the asteroid enters the earth's atmosphere 👍
The twilight?
Fuck yeah!! Just saw them last month, 8th time. Always inspiring and couldn't imagine life without them. Spiral out g.
Danny Carey is a once in a lifetime force behind the drums. He is truly something special and in my opinion, the backbone of Tool. Unbelievable drumming on this track
Couldn’t agree more! He’s a complete beast! The best drummer I’ve ever seen! 5:30 gave me goosebumps! I love Tool for life!
you do understand he owes his tallents to satan? when you trade your soul you get serious skills, look at any one who ever made it big time and ill show you one whos sold out to the dark side to the evil ones. dany thanked his parents for putting up with him then thanked satan at a gramy awards deal
but the man is absolutely the best drummer ever hands down
him and Vinny Paul are legendary. top 2.
@@ivanyurkinov lmao
Seen them like live in 2019. Can confirm. Still one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to. Nothing but perfect
Just can’t stop listening. Transition between calmness and heaviness is amazing
th-cam.com/video/R4mrX2d5Omo/w-d-xo.html
i need that part endlessssssssssssssssss
This is what makes the difference in an amazing band!!! Your comment is spot on!!!!
Listen to A Perfect circle..... any album
Maynard screaming is what the world has missed for the last couple of decades
Completely underrated comment. So true on many levels
Tool could just do away with that insufferable Maynard at this point.
@@marsoblivi0n945 man, absolutely no. The band would lose much of its magic (speaking about lyrics and vocals)
@@Giakinh0 The bands lost all of its magic already with his terrible unimaginative lyrics. Maynard is lame and over hyped.
@@marsoblivi0n945 LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO UNINMAGINITIVE ? I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU DO BETTER BRO IM CACKLIKNG
Finally a Tool cover from a band i like!
Hey those kids at the Okeefe school did "46 & 2" justice. You heard that right? It's a popular channel where kids cover rock and metal music. And their cover of Tool's "46 & 2" was the #1 cover for a while. IDK if it still is, but it probably ranks up there
Sarcasm is the tool
@@pluckyduck11y those kids are awesome
Dear TH-cam please don't put an ad in the middle of this song
@@anonymousbigshot1775 I use Brave, no ads ever...
I wish they released this with the concert lyrics. In concert he says, “we both want, to take you out to dinnerrrrrrr” cause Adam’s kid was backstage.
😂 that's awesome. Where can I find this?
Maynard humor lol
Ik, McDonald's fits perfectly right for the lyrics also xD
Dudes in his 50s and yet his voice can STILL go from knock out soothing to scare the shit out of you hardcore. Brilliant!
wished we heard more like this on fear inoculum, was somewhat disappointed by the vocals on that project
@@putyograsseson only somewhat? The dude was hardly there. And when he was, he never once gave us what we KNOW he’s good for.
That album was straight trash, for their standards.
@@putyograsseson dude i know how you feel but its because they intended to tour to support Fear Inoculum and give the experience to fans and Maynard is on record saying that he should have taken care of his voice and screamed way less. so had he done more growls and screams on fear inoculum he would have had to either damage his voice further on tour or disappoint fans because it would sound different. He can still do it, and a one-off track like this is fine, but he can't do it on tour day in and day out
@@shaunwilliams3387 this song was recorded in 2013 way before Fear Inoculum but yeah idk wtf that guys talking about 😆
@@billyalarie929 Maynard is a pompous Jackass at times, but FI was a change. Maybe a good one because TOOL is getting old and they don’t have the same energy as they once had back in the fucking 90’s. FI was much more calmer. Metallica changed, Green Day changed, TOOL changed. Don’t expect everything to be the same.
Nice of Tool to do a tribute to the greatest band of all time
True that
Beautiful..
Hahaha
No one can remember the song
, but it was a tribute!
The D?
I liked the original by Pink Floyd more tbh
The fact that Tool can deconstruct and reinvent something they released in 1992 is a testament to their greatness. They make music that changes lives.
This was the first Tool song I heard and fell in love. Wasn't on the main stations, just a high school local station and one of the kids would play it out of his own cd collection during his hour on air.
Because they have little helpers in the realm you may not be seeing.i mean look at there art? Nephilum.demons,yeah...they got helpers.
@@doodiwiwhshx3172 I’ve got some advice for you little buddy
@@port_of_dandong nice own here. 🤘
@@darkhierophant4914 I mean, before he points that finger, he should know that I’m The Man
The beginning of the song up until 2:45 is like my life spiraling into chaos, and then the instrumental is me in this weird limbo of sad prolonged reflection, building back towards confindence, finding my center, my will to continue. If i could live with only one band, it would be tool. Theyve drastically impacted my life as im sure much of the fans can say the same, itll be played at my funeral for sure.
I love this version I wish youtube would stop putting a fucking ad in the middle of it though
How is it 2022 and you're not using an add blocker?

@@Johnycum appreciate the tip
@@hackeroftoday I'll give you the whole thing if you beg ;)
@@Johnycum haha
*Tool managed to make this song sound even more Tool!*
I was trying to figure out what it was and that’s exactly it! They somehow increased the Tooliness of the song… the Toolocity.
@@markallenbialik now i have to figure out which word i like better, tooliness vs toolocity 🤔
Justin's style is different than Paul's
Its basically like if you took the original opiate and combined it with fear Inoculum and a little bit of Ænima I love this sound might be better than the original honestly
@@guitaristssuck8979 Paul is still amazing for the time and the early sound of tool people don’t give him enough credit as a bassist but Justin is a whole other level so that’s why Paul usually gets ignored hell some people still don’t even know they had an original bassist they think it was always Justin
It is surreal to hear such a modern take on one of your first songs. Re-fell in love with this piece, and am absolutely stunned with how well you all reimagined this one. It's insane to think that Tool's gonna be 30 years old. Looking forward to what you all might have planned next, if anything!
They formed in 1990 so technically they already are!
Amen brother 🤘
I foresee one last full length album. Maybe even a double LP
I'm still trying to comprehend the first 30 yrs of music 🤯😁
Our little Jimmy's all grown up.
This is what perfection sounds like...
2:46 mark almost unbearably good 🔥
I wish they would do this to entire Opiate album
Right
I've lost count of how many times I've repeated the instrumental part of this song. It's so damn perfect.
Same here!
Danny deserves a Grammy for literally every tool song ever. Goat.
No doubt
@@ericphilen3433 Danny is the best ever! No doubt he is a savant.
Danny is a phenomenal drummer, but not the goat. The professor is the GOAT.
A-fucking-MEN. The most unique and prolific PRO-ROCK Drummer since Peart left it’s in sadness, matched “maybe” by Portnoy, but Mike has a Grammy!! Danny IS THE ONE!!
If he deserves a Grammy, then the whole band does. All of them are equally amazing.
Before he passed I saw Tool in LA with my cousin, the closest thing I ever had to a brother. This would have been the first thing I woke up to if he were still with us. Rest in peace, brother. Hope this reaches you.
Keep rocking. 🖤
I feel you. Tool was the last show I saw with some close friends that were basically family. They sadly passed to some bad decisions a few months later. 😢
My heart goes out to you for your loss but I'm sure your cuz is always with you in spirit...especially through Tool 🤘💜
Sorry, my Tool brother. May they rock on among the stars
Rip
Something ironic about wishing for an afterlife via an anti-christian song lol
This year marks the start of my 3rd decade with Tool, and it still amazes me how powerful the music continues to be after listening to it for so long. It’s always like I’m listening to it for the first time over and over again and keep getting blown away, over and over and over again. There has never, is no other and will never be a band as amazing as these 4 individuals.
1992 Was the year of Opiate and love. Two years later at the Salem Armory I did a stage dive during Sober that I remember like it was yesterday. Dear dude that I kicked in the face during that crowd crawl- I am SOOOO SORRY. I hope you healed ok.
I want to loop the interlude forever....
They released the opiate version they play during their live sets and I cannot express how much this release means to me. Greatest band to ever grace this lifetime.
Definitely my favorite too!!😎
It's been a privilege every time I have seen one of their shows.
They haven't been playing this version on the recent tour, strangely enough. They tease at it with the new intro, but they skip the entire instrumental in the middle, but Maynard did do the scream at the end, which I was not expecting him to do live...did the same with "The Grudge".
@@crystalscolza1663 Are you sure? I saw them in Eugene and they skipped the entire breakdown in the middle, but no one noticed because they played the new intro...
I agree with you 150 percent
Maynard’s voice sounds incredible here, this gets me really excited for what’s in store for the future…
Don’t hold your breath big man
You'll need to wait another 10 years 😂
They said they plan on releasing another album in the near future this time
can you imagine if they did an entire Opiate2 EP ????
@@olsonbryce777 I feel like “near future” in tool speak is minimum 8 years 😂
Saw them in Cincinnati when Opiate came out. Me and about a dozen other people were the whole audience. Great show and after the show my buddy and I said to each other “this band is going to be huge.”
With Tool, the music starts, you feel that urge to crank the volume right up there. Like REALLY LOUD!
For sure
Blasting it in my AirPods rn
TH-cam felt the urge to play a commercial midsong. Really louder than the song, because those marketing cucks really want their products abhored.
@@Daaoyi Adblock masterrace
FULL FUCKIN VOLUME
Tool always comes out of nowhere and hit you right at the back of your head
A Tool DiNozzo if you will
I've said this same exact thing. Like falling into a black hole and seeing the back of your own head. And they slap it.
I’ve never been more impressed by a band over and over again
That's what makes them special. Tool has consistently made some of the greatest albums I have ever heard in my life. Not one bad album
Now this I agree with... Maynard you're still a pretentious prick who's way to in to yourself, or wish you could be inside yourself. That's how much you love yourself. A less junkie version or Morrison
. A Gothic version of Danzig.. love the band and their sound. Bubbly Metallic Rock
I still remember the time you performed this song with Layne Staley in 1993. What a magical time. Your collaboration was a gem.
Both Tool and AIC are dear to my heart and mind. I wish many years to come to you and your unique creative path.
This is exactly what I needed to hear today, A passage back in time to the music that lifted me up through my darkest days as a teenager and helped give me strength to endure and forge the person who I've become today. This takes me back to 1994 when I was 16 years old and discovered Tool for the first time.
th-cam.com/video/R4mrX2d5Omo/w-d-xo.html
I'm 21, at the worst point in my life right now and this shit slaps. Hope you're doing better now. \m/
as a person who is currently 16, in 2022, this relatable pain and anger is something i think the vast majority of us, the tool fanbase can relate upon
I’ve just discovered Tool in my mid-twenties. Their music is doing the same for me
😮vibras viejo.
Good to see the live extended version recorded .
Thoughts for all the TOOL fans who aren’t with us anymore to hear this x
Makes me think of a few homies I've lost over the years. They wouldn't FLIPPED at fear inmoculum and even moreso at this opiate re..... play? Haha
I don't really remember it cause I was tripping balls lmao

@@c.s.7097 ye
Ah thank you for the grammar correction.
Everything after Opiate is better than Opiate, but at least this song has transcended its own album.
I think TOOL has honestly become my favourite band…there’s no one like them
it's my favourite from the beginning 🤣🤣
@@darioesposito5308 nice! Haha
No question man. Once you have a favorite it’s very hard to dethrone them, Metallica was my favorite for the longest time. But Tool is just next level.
They’ve been my favorite band for probably 25 years and it’s not particularly close
Took you long enough! Lol
Been a fan of tool since I was 15, now I’m 25 and been waiting nearly 3 years to see these guys due to pandemic and finally seeing them for the first time in may. Being alive is good.
I started listening to them when I was 17. I’m 31 now and finally saw them on February 2 in San Antonio. Life changing.
I've been listening to Tool for at least 20 years. They are incredible live. They are the musical equivalent of ketamine.
Best live show I've ever been too
You're in for a treat. Best live show of all time.
I bet that show was fantastic wasn’t it? 😎
These guys always play from the heart. Ya know it because ya can always feel it. My cat loves these guys!
I don’t even know what to say that hasn’t already been said about Tool. They never cease to amaze and inspire.
sure, the band that hasn't make new sound since 2006 lol
@@DonSampa why fix what isn’t broken?
@@DonSampa perhaps the framework of guitar, bass, and drums, sounds similar across albums. but if you pay attention you notice the compositions have continued to evolve

Man. It truly never gets old seeing how many other people have a religious level connection with this band. I love you all. Thank you Tool for helping so many of us across the threshold.

There hasn't been another band that has touched me, healed me like T00L has. My whole life changed because of them.
it kinda gets old. there's a lot of music worth revering out there.
@@zolda7179 There is a lot of GREAT music out there. But no other band has influenced me more than T00L.
@@rickmaher4283 that's totally fair, i'm just kinda tired of people putting maynard on a pedestal like he's fucking jesus.

do your own thing, spiral out, you feel?
at 8 mins in i heard maynard start to tense up his voice and i was like please give me a scream please give me a scream and i was so satisfied. Maynards still got it !
Congratulations to tool and their 20th anniversary of opiate this song is the inspiration for my brand! "def and blind and dumb and born to follow, what you need someone strong to guide you..."
Holy fucking smokes i love this version! It's got the agressiveness of their early work and the drawn-out beautiful instrumental parts of their latest work. 10/10.

good parenting.
Was so fortunate to hear this version live Halloween 2015. Was one of the best Tool shows I've been to, but this version of Opiate is beyond next level. Nice to have a studio version!
Were you in Milwaukee for this? If so, we experienced this together.

Cronafined sound, it reminded me how fragile we are and yet still fighting the universe
This song shows perfectly the evolution of TOOL through the years
They couldn’t have done that 30 years ago
This has more of future Tool sound,
It really does, the “chaos” of the beginning (being young and wild), then the slow bridge (growing up and finding yourself), then back to chaos (reverting back to your true self). Tool has always made music that describes the human experience. That’s why I love them, it’s more than just music.
@@endingworlds you got it
Tool is the only band that can do a cover of their own work, and somehow make it sound so much better. Not even Trent Reznor has ever managed that one.

TOOL doing their own reboot that's beyond monumental. My heart constantly aches for the days of bands like this and Alice In Chains in their prime. This has exceptionally sedated that pain for me. Thank you Maynard, Adam, Justin, and the great Danny

@@colestowing8695 yup, we were on the first set of raised rows on the left side as well. Such an awesome show.
That was amazing. Somehow so much more creepier than the original and the instrumentals were just incredible.
I gotta give it to Tool: I know everybody else has said this and it might sound very unoriginal at this point, but…
Tool can make a nine minute track feel like four. It’s due to the music and instrumentation, for me. I’ve been out there searching for other bands that have this sound ever since I got hooked on this band.

@@Reconsiderate Yes!
@@connersophia2674 Great band!
Dear Tool,
Wow! The single is a banger!
To begin with, Maynard's vocals are sublime! The ambient interlude that begins at 02:46 is beauteous. The hi-hat quietly entering at 03:24, and then the bass drum at 03:55, are deftly placed; nuanced and sonically satiating. The tone of the bass at 06:21 is one of Justin's best in Tool's oeuvre. And finally, the scream that I and, I'm sure, many others would have missed on Fear Inoculum graces us at 08:12!
Thank you, Tool for such brilliant music over the years.
Sincerely,
A grateful fan.
great comment
Thank you, @@4amwaj!

It’s always neat to have multiple versions of a song to enjoy, it gives a lot of perspective.
its so wild hearing an old TOOL song played in the newer TOOL style.

This song was absolutely amazing. That opening fucking gave me goosebumps, and that close was just phenomenal. This band is literally unlike anything I’ve ever had the privilege of listening to.
Opening sounds like Intension, I love it
Keep going
Listen to Car Bomb lol
Me too, brother. Reminded me of the early 2000s. Miss those times.
Me too. I'm 72 and Love this group.
2:46 has to be the most beautiful sounding riff I've ever heard.
I really like their riffs when they sound like this, they have that ethereal sound and feel.
@@Crabbadabba No quarter has a similar riff about midway through. Sounds so good.
They sound good! These kids are going places for sure
nah...they'll never make it. crappy work ethic-13 years between albums 😂
This is quite honestly the biggest thank you to the fans. Each of them fired on all cylinders to bring this song back for those who are still here. That extended portion was transcendental, and my god that scream. I definitely got way more than I expected and I am grateful I got to experience this.
i listened to the song sober. Loved it but i wasn't in the right headspace.
Smoked a joint of strong indica put it back again bruh transcendental is right
Yeah that is exactly how i experienced it. This song was made to be listened to in that headspace

This is OGT… back from 92… from the first EP…
30 years later… they still never sold out.
"All you know about me is what I've sold you"
"Dumb fuck, I sold out long before you ever even heard my name"
"I sold my soul to make a record, dipshit then you bought one"
Simply amazing. I love the possible glimpse of the direction Tool is going in the near future. I still prefer the original Opiate, nothing can beat the absolute raw punch it gives
10,000 Days is my favourite Album. Right In Two is phenomenal
2:47 This was on Tool Archive with what was said to be a new Tool song in the works before Fear Inoculum was released. It was actually just a jam they did. Loved the sound of it then and cool that it was studio recorded into a modern updated Opiate. This band is everything.
No wonder i thought i was eerily familiar its really cool when the build on ideas that we got to listen to in future song like the one in descending
Yeah I recall hearing it. I think I heard talk of this reimagined version went back as far as 2015.
B auixk
TOOL got me through the death of my mother. Glad to see them coming back together again.
Me too. Especially Wings for Marie part 1 and 2. Even more relatable as it's something Maynard writes about too. It sucks to lose a parent before their time. My condolences.
@@notsure1969 unimaginable to me that it could be before their rightful time. It’s sad to see family and loved ones go if the timing is precisely perfect. ✌🏼❤️
Believe it or not my Mother 😍😍😍 Bought me my first TOoL Cd ever which was Aenema!! As well as my first TOoL concert ever Mc farlin auditorium I’ll never forget that day!!!💪🏽
Same. And it's not even the songs that seem most relevant to the topic that pulled me (and continue to pull me) through my grief. It's pretty much everything the band has done that provides a shelter.
I mean... they were never *not* together...
I always wondered why artists don’t do stuff like this more. You know artists must imagine changes they could make to songs like these that they’ve played live for years and years. Yet artists never really do this stuff
Because today artists are paid by the big studios who have creative control. Lucky for Tool they are a hugely successful band and they can do what they want now
@@ethanrom22 I was thinking about older artists though. I understand why current artists who are just trying to make their mark aren’t but I’m saying older bands.
@@turner4243 oh for sure, yeah like Pink Floyd I’m sure had artistic freedom
This might be the most beautiful Tool song of all time. Which is really saying something
I would love to hear The Pot^2.... Schism^2... Lateralus^2.. or another new album.. Great song and THANK YOU for everything!
As a composer, this is so fuckin incredible, hearing how they blended the classic more grungy, blues scale heavy style of the original ep with their super dissonant alt stuff from the early '00s and the newer polyrhythmic, smooth, layered textures of the modern eras, there's so much depth and intensity and intent to this. Things like this remind me why I love music and why I do what I do, the world needs more art like this!
Well said sir
The correct abbreviation of the decade is '00s. The zeros don't possess anything to need an apostrophe at the end, and an apostrophe is necessary at the beginning because it denotes the omission of the digits 2 and 0.
@@nonosh gosh darnit, I wasn't sure which one was correct and just ran with it. Thanks for the correction!
@@steve7745 You're welcome, and thanks for being a cheerful sport!
it's so obvious you're from reddit lol holy shit
How does he still sound so young? These guys NEVER disappoint.

It's the studio, dolt. Listen to him live from the recent tour. He sounds old and tired.

Danny Carey is special in this re-engineering of the song... A serious force on drums... And everything else is just 🤌
i can't describe how happy i am with this , tool was always something special for me , almost as if they are not a band they are something else every song is a journey of emotions , absolutely majestic as always !
Same. Like millions before us.
I started listening to Tool when I was young and going through some depressing times back in 1999. I was only 10 years old. I first heard them on a demo disc I got for free at my local music store. The song Opiate came on. I couldn’t believe my ears. Then there was another song on there called Forty Six & 2. That was it… I went back down to the music shop and picked up all the cds they had out at that time and it changed my life forever. I’m 33 now and see them again tomorrow. What a time to be alive!
I can't see the text "46&2" without feeling a visceral emotion. That song is part of me.
You know what? I don't think there's a whole lot of truth to that story. Maybe I'm wrong... But probably not. I mean if it's true, like whatever, cool... But if not, you need to go get some fucking professional help. Quite frankly I really don't care either way 🤷🏼♂️
Forty Six and 2 was the first song I heard by Tool. It was a formative memory in my life, you know when you hear that song that imparts a sort of mindfulness through every second of it.
"Things that never happened." 10 year olds shouldn't be listening to shit like Stinkfest, Sober, and Prison Sex. your parents are failures.
I was seeing Tool live in 1999. Still great all these years later.
This could by all means turn these past few years around, I yearn to see more.
Beautiful 😍 totally mesmerized by your music sends me into my mind everytime
This feels like an epic journey across their entire discography
@Less Than Nothing... ... 2019
@Less Than Nothing... rubbish
A Perfect Circle? lol
@@TheNewzbreak If you think FI was anything less than a 9/10 you’re tarded. That being said everything else by tool is a 10/10, and Lateralus is 11/10
@@GrapeFlavoredAntifreeze I think you are replying to the wrong person
They officially turned a great song into an masterpiece
They officially turned a masterpiece into a opiate version of invincible.
@@NooDLES411911 I really don't know what you're talking about.
@@NooDLES411911 Also 2nd season is comming
@@rickyhansen4654 there are a lot of similarities between this new version of opiate and their song Invincible. I love it
It was a masterpiece back in '92. Just another version, sort of like Pushit. I do like it though. The original was definitely better. But I always love to hear them change it up a bit. And that signature Maynard scream, God I fucking love it!!! Props to Paul D'Amour for the original bass line. Props to Justin Chancelor for for making the band what it is and has been for the past 25 years. Maynard's ok, Danny can't hold a candle to Neil Peart, and Adam Jones is sub par. Lol! I'm just kidding! Greatest musicians and song writers combined fucking ever!!!!
i feel this song %100%
The insturmental section just puts my soul at ease!! Such Greatness, wonderfully reimagined!
