      It isn't a super strong song. It does grow on you but it doesn't have the punch of Schism, Vicarious or The Pot. This truly feels like a deliberated single to throw people off.

      @BallTistic Screecher nah, they've definitely got some turds, this isn't one of them though. I for one don't even like opiate or a good chunk of undertow. Aenima and lateralus are great beginning to end, 10,000 days is weak in the middle of the album. Every band has turds. This song is good because of its subtlety and because it shows a maturity to their sound.

    The opening makes me feel like starting a car that has not run for a long time. The familiar sounds, some hesitation, then the old familiar. The comfort of what we once knew. But, its been a while. Feels different. Then remembering. For me... perfect opening song.

    I remember talking to one of my close friends about Fear Inocolum the day it came out. The first time I heard it, I told him: "I think sounds like The Grudge and the Parabol together, but in a more evolved manner, as if the Tool members grew older and their music matured with them".
    I didn't listen to it again for some days. I came back to it 3 days ago and, after having listened to it around 50 times, I don't know what else to say... It's Tool and they got yet to on another level, a different level from what (I think) we expected, but on a level that they are going to amaze us like noone else. It's crazy to think that we waited for 13 years for a new album and Tool still prove they are ahead of the curve!

    Jim, I was lucky enough to have discovered TOOL back in 1995. They have been huge part of my life ever since then.(going to concerts, listening, collecting everything TOOL, watching videos, etc...) I was so glad to find your channel and watch you "discover" and appreciate them as I do. I was at work when this single finally dropped. I was so excited, I could barely breathe. My reaction was much like yours. I must admit, I was a little afraid that "Fear Inoculum" couldn't possibly meet my hopes, dreams, and super high expectations of new material after a long 13 year wait. When the song finished, I felt like I had reconnected with an old best friend that I hadn't seen in a very long time. My next thought was to get home ASAP and get the headphones out and dig deeper. After about 10 listens, my next thought was, "I wonder if Jim has reacted to it yet?" Thank you so much for your genuine reactions. Always a pleasure to visit with you and your channel.

Basically I was very afraid, can they fill up the expectations after so long a wait. I'd say yes, Tool did it. At least with this song. I don't think there's any band ever been building up the tension as Tool have been over the expectations. This sound really promising and I hope the whole new album will be as good as this song.

    Jim - I can't express enough how enjoyable it is being able to be a voyeur while you experience not just this, but all of Tool's music. It's clear that you are truly feeling and internalizing the music the way it was meant to be consumed. It doesn't hurt listening to your cheeky responses as to the nature of the meaning of the song. Everyone will interpret it in their own way, but I think many of us have a good idea in what direction Maynard was aiming here :)
