It's fun watching your reactions because you give undivided attention to the music. Tool won't let you down on any song or any message. Most "rock" has outward expression of feeling, whereas, Tool seems to have an introspective expression to every song. Instead of jumping around the room you feel like meditating, yet sonically it's just as heavy and complex. Kinda cool how they pull that off.
Your positivity and encouragement to others is inspiring. I knew this would be right up your alley. This song literally changed my perspective on life.
Watching your reaction on his epic scream, was priceless !! And that was Maynard back in the day . He no longer does the epic screams . Once in a while he will do a few old songs in concert . But mainly he is doing an insane falsetto voice in all three of his bands. A perfect Circle and Puscifer . He is the lyricist in all three bands . And I think his lyrics are pure genius. Love your reactions keep it up !! Another cool band , check out King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard , Motor Spirit, they made over 25 albums in 12 years , amazing talent.
This was the climactic intro into lateralus, you should try albums as a whole beginning to end 💯 then you understand the underlying theme per release...Great response to these tracks keep reacting 😊
Tool has been my favorite band for nearly 30 years, I've seen them live over 20 times, and this is one of my all-time favorites from them. Love watching your reactions to these, you just get it. Keep going down the Tool rabbit hole, I'm here for it man. It only gets better, too. Very amazing band and I'm digging your vibe on these. Keep rocking my dude!
Dude, I've been watching your Tool reactions since the beginning and I know at first you weren't sure about this type of music, but after watching you dive in I would say you are 1000% ready for them. I love that you 'get' their song composition. Did you know that the drummer, guitarist and bassist write all the music completely then send it to the singer Maynard to add his lyrics. Its amazing and brilliant. You've got to check out Right in Two, H (about the birth of his son), parabol/parabola and dont miss Pneuma drum cam - you'll dig it. Couple of recommendations (not as heavy as this) Blues Traveler - Hook or Runaround Dave Matthews Band- Ants Marching live at piedmont park
Lateralus is a journey! Looking forward to much more, keep going!!! This album helped me get through some of my worst moments in Life so far. 😅 gained alot of self assurance in trusting the unknown with a possitive attitude of possibility. DEEPER than the mariana trench and the best part was that I understood what it meant at the time and still do. Ive been vibing with them since high school in 98’. One of the greats imo
Brother, been loving ur reactions- crazy shit is imo a couple of the best songs you still got pending... which is awesome, cuz then your getting full build up
The most confusing part you probably hear is that you want to vibe to it but literally the song has a representation. That’s why at the end when they slow down and say “choose to let this go” it actually represents the point in the song where the narrator choose to end the grudge. You really have to think deep with tool!!!! ❤️ Love your reactions bro and keep it up!!!
Bipolar LOL, that's a good one! TOOL is definitely different and they always take you on some kind of journey. Glad you're getting to experience this very special band!
The Saturn line is open to interpretation. The explanation I like refers to Roman mythology. Saturn was the Roman version of the Greek God Cronos, who had ten children. An oracle told him that one of his children would grow up to overthrow him and he begins to eat his children to stop this from happening. One of his children, Jupiter (Zeus), was aided by Saturn's wife and replaced with a stone before he was eaten. He eventually goes on to overthrow his father Saturn. The "choose one or ten line" could refer to Saturn choosing himself over his children which led to his own destruction.
Saturn also plays into 10,000 Days... Saturn's orbit takes 10,765 days, give or take.. Sue me for being off a few 30 years, give or take. Bad things happen when Saturn ascends, if you believe in astrology. His mom suffered a paralyzing stroke when he was 11 years old. She lived almost 30 years after that. Almost 10,000 days. Give or take. It fits the meter.
Don’t listen to the haters. Gawd, how I hate it when people bitch about pausing. If I want to hear the song uninterrupted, there are plenty of ways I can do that. A reaction channel is the last place I should be for that, right? AND… it actually bugs me when someone blows thru the whole thing with no reaction. Pausing (and then rewinding after) shows that you’re truly enthusiastic and/or that you care enough to catch something you missed. Period. You do you, dude. You are rockin these reactions… and breaking down Maynard’s lyrics damn well.
Bro, love your energy and willingness to really break down the lyrics. It tells me that you have an open mind and strive for a deeper understanding of things you aren't familiar with. More people should be that way. One thing I want to say is this: Bro, it's okay if you want to talk over the song instead of pausing it, especially if it's just a little comment that pops into your head. Most, if not all, of us watching your reactions have heard these songs before. A lot of us have heard them countless times, so you talking over it isn't as big of a deal as pausing it. That totally kills the vibe, which, as in Tool songs especially, is a huge part of the experience. We understand you have to pause it at some point and that, with Tool, it can be difficult to know at what point it's ok to do so, but in the middle of a scream.......c'mon, bro. I know you're just excited, but as someone who enjoys your reactions, could you do me a favor and work on it? Thanks. Keep going, my guy. It's waiting for you.
The describing word for them is progressive. They're famous for their many transitions throughout their songs, and it's fun for those of us that know to watch someone hearing them for the first time not knowing those transitions are coming.
“I mean, they can WRITE write”. Yuuuuuuuup. And YES… you absolutely have to listen. Sure, you can just enjoy the sound but you’ll get so much more out of it when you pay attention like you doin.
Tool's whole discography is a journey. It honestly doesn't HAVE to be listened in order or anything, but you will probably notice a trend in their earlier work to be more angry and fuck the world style, and the later stuff is more reflective of the journey they've been on for over 30 years. Glad you're enjoying it. Just keep that in mind when you're reacting and when they were released and it'll all make sense the further along you go down the spiral. Cheers.p
Glad you're picking up on the lyrics being so important and awesome within Tool. Maynard is a modern day poet. Enjoy the ride young man. (even talking so casually about how the music is fire and that it goes without saying... ) Feels familiar. haha.
Tool definitely structures a lot of their stuff as a whole musical composition, there are peaks and valleys and sometimes instrumentals, but they always bring it back and leave you wanting more. imho. Don't worry about 'screwing up' on pausing, we know you have to do that. Mistakes are made. Honestly just so happy you're both enjoying it and understanding it. Hearing you talk about 'how are they gonna bring it down like that' knowing that huge scream is coming, brings that foreshadowing feeling within me that I truly love experiencing vicariously through these reacts. Yours and others. Keep goin!
Youre a good reactor. Too many reactors make it about themselves and it annoys me. You paid attention and respect to the music without ego. Maybe you are more of a tool fan than you even realize 😉
There are several things to the Saturn part in the song. First and one he's probably alluding to is in astrology. Saturn has an effect on your life due to its orbit around The Sun. Saturn has a 27-year orbit around the Sun. Therefore, by the time Saturn comes around again, you should have your life figured out because you're in your late twenties at this point. And secondly, the one I like the best is that 27 years is about 10,000 days. The period of time his mother was in a incapacitated state... Edit I had to come back into this and tell you that comment about the music music being bipolar had me rolling, That's the best description I've ever heard😂
Also, Tool rarely (if ever) has traditional solos like verse, chorus, verse bands. So don’t try too hard to figure it out. The running “joke” is that Tool is the only band where all members have solos but they are all played at the same time and throughout the entire song. 😆 Just pause when you feel like it or need to. Your channel, your way. Just always click back a sec afterwards… which you seem to do. Perfect.
Saturn is known as the guardian of the threshold. A symbol of climatic change, transformation, challenge and calamity. Saturn oversees periods of great choice and growth, an anomaly of chaotic energy that alters. When faced with both; a Grudge and the ascendency of Saturn (a situation that requires an emotional response), he weights two choices. Kether (1) The path of forgiveness is also the sphere that contains all that was, is, or will be. It is the First Emanation and the sphere of pure spiritual being, the point of absolute Unity without division. Malkuth (10) The path of division, is the final receptacle for the combined energies of the Tree of Life. Where the other spheres are basically kinetic and mobile, Malkuth is stable and inert, and unlike the other sephira, it is not part of a triad. Malkuth is the Physical World around us, the Creation of the Divine. To choose 10 is to hang on to your grudge and remain finite, and to choose one is to allow yourself to be humbled and embrace the collective without ego.
Day 2 asking for a reaction to the tune “The Last Baron” by the band Mastodon! You won’t regret it..🤘🏼 Expand your musical vocabulary… Enjoy the ride!!
13:44. It’s hilarious that you understand that there is comments trying to get you to not pause during a drum solo or a guitar solo, and you saying that you can’t comprehend if the drums are going crazy, or the guitar is doing different things, then you go and pause in the middle of a scream. I’m pretty sure you know what a scream is. I’ve had enough, good luck!🌿🌸
TOOL is just different. Self-indulgent? Yes. But they force you to stew in them juicy musical juices before the lyrical messages hit. It's not easy listening. It's not about club bangers. It's about closing your eyes and farting into your couch as you absorb the existential vibe. Also, TOOL fandom is a bit of a cult, so... Be prepared to become obnoxious.
My man you.re reviews are good....dont give the "dont pause the guitar solo" crowd any heed bro they just be at folks for nothing lol. Its a waste of energy, you pull back the reel anyway after a pause. Hate seeing good reactors have to constantly apologize to these guys
I recommend Stinkfist next and if you want a rollercoaster ride check out 7empest or Tempest as the title goes. It won a Grammy as well. Trust me bro it won't disappoint

Pushit, from Salival album. Mind blowing..
It's fun watching your reactions because you give undivided attention to the music. Tool won't let you down on any song or any message. Most "rock" has outward expression of feeling, whereas, Tool seems to have an introspective expression to every song. Instead of jumping around the room you feel like meditating, yet sonically it's just as heavy and complex. Kinda cool how they pull that off.
Bro... TOOL will grow your following... and expand your mind... let's get it my G !!!
Your Tool reactions are making my day.

If you where ever in a bad relationship Tool Pushit is for you
⬆️ ⬆️ ⬆️ he’s part right lol but I think you’ll agree jay he needs the salival version of pushit
Your positivity and encouragement to others is inspiring. I knew this would be right up your alley. This song literally changed my perspective on life.

Nice reaction! Lateralus, descending, pneuma, right in two. Couple songs to check out. But honestly they’re whole discography is phenomenal
You killed this reaction. Nailed what it means and I love your positivity!
I've been watching your 21 Pilots reactions, and like them, Tool's music has a lot of mental health messaging in it. Good shit.
My favorite reactor lately! Keep going on Tool. Every song is amazing. Even their earliest stuff from the Opiate EP.
This was the climactic intro into lateralus, you should try albums as a whole beginning to end 💯 then you understand the underlying theme per release...Great response to these tracks keep reacting 😊

Danny carey live behind the drums song called pneuma!!!!!@!!!!!!!!!!!
Please check this out next!! 🐙🔥🐙🔥
He’s not ready yet 😂😂
Every song is a trip, a journey, a story..
You have to reconcile inside yourself if a grudge is good or bad.
Dude, I've been watching your Tool reactions since the beginning and I know at first you weren't sure about this type of music, but after watching you dive in I would say you are 1000% ready for them. I love that you 'get' their song composition.
Did you know that the drummer, guitarist and bassist write all the music completely then send it to the singer Maynard to add his lyrics. Its amazing and brilliant.
You've got to check out Right in Two, H (about the birth of his son), parabol/parabola and dont miss Pneuma drum cam - you'll dig it.
Couple of recommendations (not as heavy as this)
Blues Traveler - Hook or Runaround
Dave Matthews Band- Ants Marching live at piedmont park
Lateralus is a journey! Looking forward to much more, keep going!!! This album helped me get through some of my worst moments in Life so far. 😅 gained alot of self assurance in trusting the unknown with a possitive attitude of possibility. DEEPER than the mariana trench and the best part was that I understood what it meant at the time and still do. Ive been vibing with them since high school in 98’. One of the greats imo
OMG...Maynard's voice....amazing 🤘
My dude was spot on with the analysis and hadn't even heard the song yet, thats impressive.
Brother, been loving ur reactions- crazy shit is imo a couple of the best songs you still got pending... which is awesome, cuz then your getting full build up
Dude you are far more talented than most know including yourself. Be courageous and grow your skill. You have talent.
I luv the positive vibes 🪐
Solid reaction. The end of the scream of the real sound of passing ALL the air in your lungs through the vocal folds at a consistent tone
Bro, you took on The Grudge?! Wewwwwwlad
The Hrudge is a 400 level course.
Kudos to the man for jumping ahead of the rest of the class.
Tool is the way to awakening ! 😉
tool has been a favourite of mine for a long time, seeing them in concert was such an amazing experience! glad youre enjoying them
10:35 Tool sway unlocked.
Bro did you do anema yet ?!?
Right off the jump, you caught the message 👊
Dude... I'm enjoying your reactions...
Bi polar is a great analogy. I enjoyed your video bro. Like your energy. Keep going

Bipolar LOL, that's a good one! TOOL is definitely different and they always take you on some kind of journey. Glad you're getting to experience this very special band!
When Bi polar is a good thing! 😊🤘
You are a very wise young man ❤
Lateralus next ! Or Stinkfist . Or vicarious . Or ALL THE ABOVE LOL
What song should he do next...all of them. Lol
The Saturn line is open to interpretation. The explanation I like refers to Roman mythology.
Saturn was the Roman version of the Greek God Cronos, who had ten children. An oracle told him that one of his children would grow up to overthrow him and he begins to eat his children to stop this from happening. One of his children, Jupiter (Zeus), was aided by Saturn's wife and replaced with a stone before he was eaten. He eventually goes on to overthrow his father Saturn. The "choose one or ten line" could refer to Saturn choosing himself over his children which led to his own destruction.
Saturn also plays into 10,000 Days...
Saturn's orbit takes 10,765 days, give or take..
Sue me for being off a few
30 years, give or take.
Bad things happen when Saturn ascends, if you believe in astrology.
His mom suffered a paralyzing stroke when he was 11 years old. She lived almost 30 years after that. Almost 10,000 days.
Give or take. It fits the meter.
This is considered to be their best LP
I’d love to watch you react to Tool-Sober. The live version. You’ll get to see how much he puts into the feeling of his lyrics. It’s chaos and wild.
That’s it subscribed damnit…. Anyone who randomly says shoulder has my respect and attention
Well done, Sir!
Thank you for more Tool❤😊
Welcome to the Tool Army!

Tool made my life and find God and experiences.
I feel ya
“He ended all soft”. *waits for it* 😆

Thats my favorite tool song for those reasons, you need Vicarious next!!
100% THIS! Vicarious is a BANGER and you'll love it!
"He ended that so soft"
... wait for the scream!
Lol
Good
“I mean, they can WRITE write”. Yuuuuuuuup. And YES… you absolutely have to listen. Sure, you can just enjoy the sound but you’ll get so much more out of it when you pay attention like you doin.
let go
Tool: The Greatest Band Of All Time. The heart and soul is Danny Carey the drummer. 🙏
25 second (I think) scream. I've never heard anyone else do that
Tool's whole discography is a journey.

Sorry, I sometimes like to comment before finishing the video and find things to add on to with replies. Cheers.
Ps: I hear a sweet lil baby in the background? Littles like Tool, too. 🥰
alright, cmon tool fans, who here has tried to do the grudge scream along with Maynard and found their lungs LACKING!!!!! :)

Saturn comes back every29-30 yrs to your incarnation, lets your karma play
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🫡
Please react to Vicarious and Jambi
I can appreciate your statement of Tool song sounding "bipolar", but the songs follow a Fibonacci sequence.
TOOL is just different. Self-indulgent? Yes. But they force you to stew in them juicy musical juices before the lyrical messages hit. It's not easy listening. It's not about club bangers. It's about closing your eyes and farting into your couch as you absorb the existential vibe. Also, TOOL fandom is a bit of a cult, so... Be prepared to become obnoxious.
2:25 , "the buildup is crazy"
Bro,.... wait til the end scream.
#SpiralOut
My man you.re reviews are good....dont give the "dont pause the guitar solo" crowd any heed bro they just be at folks for nothing lol. Its a waste of energy, you pull back the reel anyway after a pause. Hate seeing good reactors have to constantly apologize to these guys
We need someone watching black label society
Cant go wrong with Tool.
Check out some older stuff ...just as good, i promise
Please react to Metallica one.
I recommend Stinkfist next and if you want a rollercoaster ride check out 7empest or Tempest as the title goes. It won a Grammy as well. Trust me bro it won't disappoint
