I've been listening to tool for almost 20 years, and what makes me emotional is watching other people's faces when my favorite parts come up. It's those moments where people discover something that crashes into your ear drums like a sonic atom bomb that bring tears to my eyes.
Isn’t that the best part of reaction videos?! I’m jealous of this guy he just got to listen to Jambi for the first time! I’ve heard this song a million times it still moves me but there’s nothing like the first time.
Ok... here’s a nice twist on the relationship thing for you: Maynard dedicated the song Jambi (it’s in the 10,000 Days notes) to his only son, Devo. So... it’s a father speaking to his son. Love it ❤️
Eric Flowers His son, Devo, is 24 years old. Here he is playing cello at his dad’s 50th birthday celebration a few years ago: th-cam.com/video/iNx776BsytI/w-d-xo.html
@@kellsinpdx that's who he wrote H. About. He wrote H when his girlfriend was pregnant with his child. H is also his sons middle name which is where the song gets it title.
Probably should do the Trifecta. Start with Judith, then Wings 1 and 2. It's the deepest experience by Tool in my opinion. A glimpse in the coping mind of Maynard.
This album was much about his mother's death. She was sick for a long time=10000 days. Jambi would be part of the saga. Judith is the best tool song they didnt do...
I want to watch your reaction to every tool song. The more you hear, the better it is and a deeper appreciation for their talents! Especially Danny on drums!
This has been requested before but here it is again: Tool - Jimmy A Perfect Circle - Judith Tool - Wings for Mary (parts 1 and 2) (also known as 10000 days) Do it in single run with the lyrics video that have an explanation of the whole story. That could be really cool to see as a reaction. Also you are a sensible dude (I can see it on your reaction to Juan Gabriel songs, because I am equally sensitive) so for 10000 days maybe get some face tissues because it is a trip. It is a powerful song sang from the heart. Kind of reminds me to Amor Eterno since it is about a mother that has moved on to the next dimension. Even though, in tool fashion, lyrically and musically it is a very tool song. There is also a fourth song from Maynard's other band Puscifer that completes the story. Cannot recall the name but Google search should give the answer.
I don't think it's necessary to do it all in one video, but should definitely be a series done all in the same night, he gets paid for the views and understandably this idea goes against his business model. Also, videos with explanations are horrible for first listens, they're too distracting for reactors. I'd say just have the man do a little research on what happened to Maynard's mother Judith. Just to be clear though, Wings for Marie 1 and 2 SHOULD be listened to in the same video, no question.
@@adammaynard5683 I love Intermission, it's so amazing how it mimics Jimmy in kind of an 8 bit video game way, almost like it describes Maynard's carefree life before, and then the song hits like a ton of bricks. I've been a proponent of combining them in the past, but the reactors tend to become so confused by Intermission, that they aren't prepared when Jimmy drops, they sort of lose focus.
Definitely should listen to that AND watch the video. Adam Jones isn't just a great musician. He's a great artist in general. I've always wanted to own one of his stop motion puppets. Especially the one from Ænima and Sober. Good suggestion btw!!
@@SSGSativa He is amazing....those puppets are freaking sweet. I have always wanted one as well. lol I look forward to seeing more of your channel. You are a very good host
Just so you know,,,,the context of the song is pretty frightening, but they have a way of getting into some seriously deep issues anyway and try to open people's eyes to subjects that aren't always pleasant, but are of super importance.
@@robert_mcpherson well said. Forcing/Prying open that third eye is sometimes necessary. Some people don't want to be bothered by truth and live in ignorance, and truth can definitely affect/shatter one's beliefs as well as enlighten for best, but some times people need to hear the truth whether they like it or not. Truth is truth. Truth is enlightenment. Not all enlightenment is pleasant. There's lots of things I wish I could un-learn/un- experience. But I still always want to learn more and experiencing hard, sad truths hasn't stopped me yet from wanting to know even more. I know Maynard doesn't like when people take his lyrics too literal and serious but he def has good messages we can all learn from. Just gotta listen. If you ever see one of Adam Jones' stop motion puppets for sale, hmu IMMEDIATELY on this post (If you don't already buy it right away, lol) Have a great one, dude!
Lol that is the same effects pedal it’s called a “ talk box” it’s a foot switch pedal on the ground that has a rubber tube that goes up to a mic stand and is plugged into his stomp box which is connected to his guitar really cool pedal... a lot of good guitarist use it to make the guitar have that original sound! Fun to mess around with!
But he was right about the Zap and Roger reference. Only instead of a guitar they used a keyboard to generate the sound. But when Peter Frampton , Joe Walsh, and Joe Perry were using them in the 70's they weren't in a pedal form factor. It wasn't until the late 80's/early 90's when the pedal form came round.
Brett Marlar sweet I was born in mid 70’s so i didn’t pick up guitar until early 90’s but didn’t realize those went back that far thanks I am interested in some of the earlier forms now and how the tones are from that era
@@porkchopzmeat3099 I was born in October '74. Started playing in '86. Wasn't long after that when I started noticing people mak8ng their guitars "talk" with wah pedals, and a friend of mine told me about the Talk Box somewhere around '89 or '90. I asked every guitar shop in the Denver area, and they all said that it wasn't available to buy. That something like that needed to be custom built.
I saw them in February here in Aus before COVID-19 consumed everything. This song along with Pnuema and Tempest were the jewels of the night. Jambi cuts through you like a knife live. They change it up to elevate it beyond the studio version.
My Fav Band ♥️♥️♥️ can you please react to : Jimmy, Hooker with a Penis!? Also can you react to “Grand Canyon” from Maynard’s other band Puscifer? #MJK #Tool
At the end when Maynard says, "Silence, legion, save your poison. Silence, legion, stay out of my way" Many people think he's talking to Tool fans about staying out of his personal and family life.
Mark 5:1-9 King James Version (KJV) 5 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. 6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. 8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. 9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
I don’t think he’s talking about the fans, I think he’s talking about the demons of temptation and demonic people and forces that have power in this world
"here from the king's mountain view, here from the wild dream come true." he's on top of the world, living a wild dream. countless dreams born from wealth, and he would wish it all away if the alternative was losing his son. i think maynard has come a long way as a person. his son, and the death of his mom, i think fundamentally changed him.
I think it goes even deeper. I think this song is about death and losing a loved one and what you would be willing to give up just to spend one more day with that person. RIP Kory Moore.
In the lyric he’s saying that he would wish away all that he has even at the THOUGHT of losing the other person for even just one day. (The person Maynard is speaking about in the song you might think, is a lover, it’s not, he wrote it about his son.) However tool has also said that some of their songs are ambiguous and can be interpreted in different ways by the listener. The “tube” you’re talking about that Adam Jones is using is called a talk box. My favorite Tool song.
By far my favourite track on this album. "Prayed like a martyr dusk to dawn. Begged like a hooker all night long." Adam's use of the voice box was made famous in the 70's by Peter Frampton on "Do you feel like we do" and in the 80's by Mathias Jabs of The Scorpions on the track "The Zoo".
Tool is always up to interpretation, to me this song is about my relationship with my self. Stories I tell myself about how I would always choose my inner voice over a life of luxury or some other material attachments. But even the voice telling these stories can drown out the subtle hum of my inner peace It's difficult to maintain contact with my true self when I'm just surrounded by the echoing voices of my worldly attachments, despite the mantras of denial I sing.
Loving your reactions man, follow the Maynard trail and you’ll never be disappointed, truly an amazing lyricist. Some of his Perfect Circle stuff is definitely worth a look. Much love from Australia brother 💪
There may be a much darker meaning to this song but I’m not sure. Danny Carey is reportedly a satanist. Not sure about Maynard but he does seem to mock Jesus in a number of his songs. Satan took Jesus up onto a mountain and offered him all the kingdoms of this world. This is a King’s view. He offers fame and fortune but the price is your soul. In one verse he says The Devil and his had me down, in love with the dark side I’d found, dabbling all the way down, up to my neck soon to drown. It sounds like Satan offered Maynard all of the fame, fortune and lustful fulfillment of this world and he took it. He dabbled into the occult and got in over his head. Now he has a son that changes his life so much that he say’s IF I could I would wish it all away. The fact that he say’s if i could implies that he cannot wish it all away. Satan does not let people out of their deals with him. Many people don’t know this but Satan, before he fell, was in charge of music in Heaven. There are many stories of musicians selling their soul to Satan for fame and fortune. In a later verse Maynard say’s tempted the devil with my song and got what I wanted all along. What convinced me that I am right about this is at the end of the so g he say’s silence legion, save your poison. There is a story of a man in the Bible possessed by many devils/demons. When questioned about the name of the demon possessing the man the devils refer to themselves as legion, for they were many. I think this song may be about selling your soul to the devil and then wishing you could change it. Unfortunately it’s probably too late. Just a thought. found, dabbling all the way down, up to
Jamel, I always enjoy your pauses and commentary, but watching your reaction to TooL is the best. I think most tool fans were pretty speechless / mind blown when they first experience it and grasp at the many layers of music transitions and lyrics. They still give me the feels even so many years later. Sometimes when I don't know what to listen to, I just put in your reactions. It's just great! You have an open ear for genres, and I love that about you! Keep on jammin!! 🎶
Tool is my favorite band!! You have to see them live to get the full experience!... I would love to see what you think about the band Clutch and Nine Inch Nails
Jambi is my daughters favorite Tool song. Teaching her the ways of Tool at a young age. Can you please react to Swamp Song and Flood off of the Undertow album.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU REACT TO A SONG CALLED PASSENGER BY DEFTONES. It features the singer from tool! I promise you will love it!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
To me Jambi is incredible song because you can listen to it as a breakup song or falling in love song,works both way. Its prolly not about that but thats my impression of it.
Hey man, please react to some Frank Zappa. Dudes a mad genius, and I think you'll love it. Cosmic Debris, Joe's Garage, Uncle Remus, and Black Napkins are some of my personal faves, but its hard to go wrong with Zappa, imo.
To me this song meant everything to me. When my son was born, he was jaundiced and put under those lights with the blindfold. I left one day to get my wife some food and was listening to this album while out and about. I had already spent a couple days staying up watching over my boy, making sure he rested well, and his blindfold stayed on. While out on my trip to get lunch, this song came on... Bare in mind, I've dabbled in all matters of debauchery, it seemed as tho everything came full circle that day. I was shown what laid before me and what could be. I wept. I listened to these words like they were gospel. It hit me like ton of bricks. Everything I had ever done was laid before me, and it was all washed away. I had got what I wanted... I got my son... and I had a true purpose in this life... it changed me. I am the king of my world and I control my destiny. My family is my world now... not my party life. Silence legion, stay out of my way
@@jeraldcandelario3881 very late response but I think it’s praying and begging for (whatever this song is about) to never leave him and stay along forever. Some people think it’s about his son. When I hear it I think about my relationship with spirituality and god. I interpret it as I hope my knowledge and relationship with god/universe/divine never leaves me and that it only grows strongrr
You're absolutely right about the tube in the mouth thing. That's what Adam is using to make that sound. It's an effect typically called the "Golden Throat", or "Talk Box" that mixes your guitar signal along with the signal of the tube in your mouth to effectively "talk" through your guitar. Peter Frampton (a great musician from the 70's) also used it a lot.
@@dornomac I mentioned "Jerk Off" and "Cold and Ugly" but he might have lost his notification due to an edit, hopefully they'll be gotten to, but I'm patient on this journey
@@dornomac and if/when they do, they're already conditioned to the evolutionary level of today's Tool and they don't seem to appreciate the early stuff. Though, from the beginning, they ALWAYS sounded like Tool, but they don't seem to appreciate the evolutionary steps that are evident in each album progressively when they start from the new stuff and work backwards. I remember when Undertow came out, there was nothing like it, even then, you knew a Tool song was a Tool song in the first 3 seconds when a new one was released.
@@MK-ti2oo that's it. I remember seeing the video for sober at my grandma's house when i was 11 or 12 and immediately knowing this was my favorite band. Then my buddy gave me his copy of opiate for some reason and I've been a huge fan ever since. It's cool that they're getting so much love these days, but if people don't know the early stuff, idk, it's like they're missing out on something. Hard to put into words, but you kinda nailed it with mentioning their evolution.
This was one of the first songs my son decided he really liked when he was like 5 or 6 ( he was listening to my iPOD in the backseat of the car). I figured he'd be as much of a music lover as his dad.
I'd recommend Panic Room by Silent Planet. Having grown up with a military father with multiple deployments and now having one under my belt, the lyrics really hit home.
Another great reaction ! I love listening to your TOOL reactions, you have a great ear... I love how quickly you get the gist of their genius :)) I’m seeing them in Sydney in February. I just pray they have Jambi in their set list! One of my favourites by them. Oh and a request if I may... please react to H. by TOOL. Not many ppl react to this gem of a song. It’s highly underrated ! TIA 🤘
💚 my fav (at the moment) "The devil and his had me down In love with the dark side i found" "But you changed all that for me Lifted me up, turned me around" "You, my peace of mind, my all, my center" "Shine on benevolent sun. Shine down upon the broken" "Shine down upon the many Light our way, benevolent son" ... I mean... Just... Fantastic. And tool never gets old. Been in their army for about 20 yrs now. Really enjoying your reaction to them.
Great song! I believe this was the only studio song that Danny used his Paiste kit on. I’ve always loved this song. Before, I never got Tool, but after many listens, I’m starting to understand them and like them. Ticks and Leeches is a great one for drums, but the title track to Fear Inoculum and Invincible are also great ones.
Alright. Let me help you a little. This album is basically a tribute to Maynard's mother he lost. So Jiambi was the wizard in the box on Pee Wee's playhouse. He wants his mom back is the just.
Always love the Tool reactions, I jump on them as soon as I see them. I'm thinking maybe you should jump in and get your feet wet with some Radiohead... They are to me a band in their own genre, such as TOOL, you'll either love 'em or you'll hate 'em, hoping you will love Them! I believe these following songs by them are the best for an introduction...And the cherry on top for me, would be all 4 in that format. Reckoner- Live from the Basement (my all time favorite song from them) Paranoid Android- A possible still or lyric (official video too distracting!) How to Disappear Completely- !Live! By youtuber EverThine (Yellow tint) Last, but not least... Street Spirit (Fade Out) Fingers crossed 🙄 And thanks for all the reactions, glad to see you are opening your mind to new music and musicians daily. ✌
Tool and radiohead are my 2 fav bands hands down. I always play reckoner or weird fishes to someone who never heard radiohead. Its a band that if people hear the wrong song first they wont give it a second chance. I think in rainbows from start to finish is the album to get ppl interested. KID A is my all time fav but idthink its the right album to get ppl into the band.
Getting to experience these songs with you is such a special thing. I know that by now you’re a full-fledged fan and love TOOL as much as anyone else, but man, hearing it with you for the first time is such a gratifying experience for someone who has been a fan for two decades. Thank you, bro.
If I'm nit mistaken, the song was about his mother and her illness when he was child. Jambi was the genie from PeeWee Hermans playhouse and how he is asking Jambi to save his mother. At least part of the song was about the mom, others could be about his son.
It’s unreal that the vocals and melodies are written after the music is done. The lines that MJK finds in those notes is unreal! I would never hear those melodies in a song like this
They have several near perfect albums all released in a row, The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A and Amnesiac. Remarkable live. Highly inspired by them and also phenomenal live is Muse, though stick to the first few albums.
Great reaction as always. Maynard’s lyrics are always thought provoking. Mix that with the musicianship of the band, and you have yourself some mind-blowing music.
I’d love to hear you react to some Talking Heads. “Once in a Lifetime” changed the course of my life when I was in my late teens/early 20’s. I decided then and there that I was not going to wake up some day and and yell “My God what have I done”. I am 60 today and I am still grateful.
I saw the Stop Making Sense concert at The Greek in LA I believe it was in 83. Incredible show. Only matched by David Byrne’s current American Utopia show.
I thought the entire album was about his mother Judith. 10,000 days being a references the day she was diagnosed with her illness to the day it took her from this world.
Saw it at the Louisville show and had never delved too deep into it, after that show I did and then I got to see it again in Indy and had a whole different appreciation for it. Next week is Nashville! Loving this tour! 🤘🏻
The LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Not money itself. Greed. The love of having money for its own sake. And this has never rung more true than in the current political and socioeconomic circumstances.
yes sir..the climax on this song is truly fantastic!! Aenema ws allways my favorite album, but this album is underrrated and is starting to grow on me now that the new album has settled in..but who am i kidding, each and everyone of their albums are masterpieces! like many others..you should do lost keys/rosetta stoned..craziest lyrics ever by Tool!
Hell yeah. I love this band. I met the drummer a while back. My company makes his drumsticks and he came to check the place out. We're doing a run of them tonight .Very unique design for his stick.
@@frightenedsoul Yep. The butt end of the stick is a pain to get right sometimes but we take the time to make sure it is. I like being a contributor to their excellent music in some small way.
I'd happily pay 50 quid to see you react to the inseparable twins video that was played over this song (back when tool songs had dank ass pirate videos on YT)
Really been loving your Tool reactions. I buy TH-cam Premium so I can listen to whatever music I want, when I want, commercial free. I listen to a lot and find this platform to be perfect for finding new music. I subscribe to only a few 'reaction' channels, but I've been enjoying your's. I'd like to suggest WAR - City Country City, if you've never heard it. WAR is a much under appreciated group of seven superb musicians and songwriters - each a star in their own right. Everyone, and I mean everyone, knows Cisco Kid - and it's a great song. But there are so many more of theirs that really should be heard by today's generations. City Country City is instrumental, and a bit long, but the journey it takes you on is well worth the time paid. I dare you not to dance through parts, or shout through others. They start down the road with a nice smooth ride, but then keep venturing off onto side roads with longer and longer excursions, finally to arrive at the newly appreciated original destination. Really a good into into who they are. Four Cornered Room is an excellent vocal track, if you'd rather lyrics. The World is a Ghetto of course being what they're most likely remembered for, but it's also well worth hearing if you've never before. Blisters is just fun. TH-cam is some running re-mastered WAR, and it's so much more gooder listening to those. You get the full sound like it used to be if you're running 5.1 or 7.2. Hope you look into them. I recall buying this album when it was released. You'd run it home, peel the cellophane wrapper off, hold it sideways to let the record slide out onto your little finger just on the edge, and catch the hole with your thumb - never touching it. You'd have to be lint and dust free or it would immediately jump to the record because of the 'brand new' static. Then you'd sit back with your friends beginning to end. Everyone would just immerse themselves in bliss. Listening was definitely a communal experience, but it was also so loud you could actually enjoy it as if alone. Good times.
I've been listening to tool for almost 20 years, and what makes me emotional is watching other people's faces when my favorite parts come up. It's those moments where people discover something that crashes into your ear drums like a sonic atom bomb that bring tears to my eyes.
I love that too mate, I love seeing my feeling s on someone else's face, you know what happening in that brain, cheers
I really enjoyed this guys reaction because he's enjoying it so much. This is my favorite Tool song so to see it hit him so hard was a pleasure
Only 10 yrs in and I get the same feeling 🤘
It's quite fun to watch someone discover TOOL in it's pure form and see their reactions.
Isn’t that the best part of reaction videos?! I’m jealous of this guy he just got to listen to Jambi for the first time! I’ve heard this song a million times it still moves me but there’s nothing like the first time.

Oh wow! That's amazing! I didn't even know he had a child.
@@kellsinpdx that's who he wrote H. About. He wrote H when his girlfriend was pregnant with his child. H is also his sons middle name which is where the song gets it title.
Great... Try Ticks and Leeches, another Great song
That song was rated by Rolling Stone as the best Drumming on any song over Niel Pert, John Bonham, and the Guy from the Who!!

Rosetta is final boss
With the lyric vid of course
Ein Achtzehn Millionstel never heard a better description
Wings 1 and 2 by tool. Strap in for that experience. Do the backstory on it before listen.
Then Swing over to A Perfect Circle "Judith" to finish the story arc!
Probably should do the Trifecta. Start with Judith, then Wings 1 and 2.
It's the deepest experience by Tool in my opinion. A glimpse in the coping mind of Maynard.
Lyric vid a must
This album was much about his mother's death. She was sick for a long time=10000 days. Jambi would be part of the saga. Judith is the best tool song they didnt do...
I think you have been converted to the greatness of TOOL!!
This is an amazing TOOL song. They really hit a groove here and it has some amazing playing from all 4 members. One of my favorite songs of theirs
4 degrees for sure 🤘
My favorite love song. The most metal love song.
A love song... to the sun. Dedicated to Maynard's son.
Mine too man. My mom saved me in this same way. I would be lost without her love.
My pups name is Jambi lol
7:07 = Everyone their first time hearing that riff / note drop \m/ •_• \m/
Love the videos brother!!
Big facts
Yup fav part of song
I climax everytime I hear it
Tool - No Quarter is a must. It's a cover of Led Zeppelin's original and some might even say that it's better.
Yep I agree. The Tool version is better. Have a listen to Crowbar's version of No Quarter as well. It's even heavier but a bit shorter.
It's for sure better in my opinion. For the longest time it was my favorite Tool song, hands down.
nutrybe It is better. And that’s coming from a huge Zeppelin fan.
It is very, very good but, imho, it doesn’t compare. That’s Led Zeppelin’s song! 🤘🏻
Nobody does Led Zeppelin better than Led Zeppelin! What Tool does is play a damn good respectable cover of No Quarter.
TOOL songs are really complex, in every sense, take your time and listen to their albums from start to finish, it will be a journey
Yes indeed👍🏾
That's right, I don't understand why try to compare Muse with them...
@@davidzamora9510 Muse? Seriously? NFW Blasphemy
Muse? Who's comparing the two? No comparison...
In other channels usually say that, they also comment that Tool is not so good as Muse... wtf (?
lets talk about that fire hoodie.
I want to watch your reaction to every tool song. The more you hear, the better it is and a deeper appreciation for their talents! Especially Danny on drums!
Good ear! You got it man, just like Zapp and Roger Troutman, he's using a talk box. This song is So Ruff, so Tuff and has more bounce to the ounce!
Yes!
Yup Vocorder is the tech term and it was made famous by Peter Framton on the song The Way I Do ;)
@@Coyotecyb Good call!
i was gonna comment but knew some one called it :p hope he sees it to know he pretty much called it
@@Brettin ha, me too my man.
This has been requested before but here it is again:
Tool - Jimmy
A Perfect Circle - Judith
Tool - Wings for Mary (parts 1 and 2) (also known as 10000 days)
Do it in single run with the lyrics video that have an explanation of the whole story. That could be really cool to see as a reaction. Also you are a sensible dude (I can see it on your reaction to Juan Gabriel songs, because I am equally sensitive) so for 10000 days maybe get some face tissues because it is a trip. It is a powerful song sang from the heart. Kind of reminds me to Amor Eterno since it is about a mother that has moved on to the next dimension. Even though, in tool fashion, lyrically and musically it is a very tool song.
There is also a fourth song from Maynard's other band Puscifer that completes the story. Cannot recall the name but Google search should give the answer.
Why not just google it before posing the comment lol
Don’t forget Jimmy... but the trilogy is a MUST, and no other TH-camr reaction channel has done all 3 consecutively and they should! Bring tissues
I don't think it's necessary to do it all in one video, but should definitely be a series done all in the same night, he gets paid for the views and understandably this idea goes against his business model. Also, videos with explanations are horrible for first listens, they're too distracting for reactors. I'd say just have the man do a little research on what happened to Maynard's mother Judith.
Just to be clear though, Wings for Marie 1 and 2 SHOULD be listened to in the same video, no question.
You forgot intermission before jimmy, it’s quick but adds to the entire progression.
@@adammaynard5683 I love Intermission, it's so amazing how it mimics Jimmy in kind of an 8 bit video game way, almost like it describes Maynard's carefree life before, and then the song hits like a ton of bricks.

Just Bob 2nd that and the music vid if you really wanna get creeped out

Lol that is the same effects pedal it’s called a “ talk box” it’s a foot switch pedal on the ground that has a rubber tube that goes up to a mic stand and is plugged into his stomp box which is connected to his guitar really cool pedal... a lot of good guitarist use it to make the guitar have that original sound! Fun to mess around with!
But he was right about the Zap and Roger reference. Only instead of a guitar they used a keyboard to generate the sound. But when Peter Frampton , Joe Walsh, and Joe Perry were using them in the 70's they weren't in a pedal form factor. It wasn't until the late 80's/early 90's when the pedal form came round.
Brett Marlar sweet I was born in mid 70’s so i didn’t pick up guitar until early 90’s but didn’t realize those went back that far thanks I am interested in some of the earlier forms now and how the tones are from that era
@@porkchopzmeat3099 I was born in October '74. Started playing in '86. Wasn't long after that when I started noticing people mak8ng their guitars "talk" with wah pedals, and a friend of mine told me about the Talk Box somewhere around '89 or '90. I asked every guitar shop in the Denver area, and they all said that it wasn't available to buy. That something like that needed to be custom built.
Brett Marlar hahaha my first pedal was a rat distortion pedal and a crybaby wah pedal got those two pedals just to try to play some sabbath songs lol
Oh I forgot to mention my first guitar was a pos hondo les Paul copy lol ya I was a broke struggling musician back then
I'm glad you seem to take your time listening tool which is what you need to digest it. Do crawl or four degrees also by tool please! 🙏😁
I saw them in February here in Aus before COVID-19 consumed everything. This song along with Pnuema and Tempest were the jewels of the night. Jambi cuts through you like a knife live. They change it up to elevate it beyond the studio version.
Yes. Wings for Marie 1 & 2
Along with Jimmy and judith by a perfect circle.
Thisss
Seconded. Rosetta stoned also
That guitar solo effect youre referring to is called a talk box. You should youtube them. Pretty cool sounding.
bobinchainz exactly! Peter Frampton-ish 😝
My Fav Band ♥️♥️♥️ can you please react to : Jimmy, Hooker with a Penis!? Also can you react to “Grand Canyon” from Maynard’s other band Puscifer?
#MJK #Tool
Hooker With A Penis is a phenomenal song!
One of my favs for sure!
xXPyrophorusXx I love Country Boner.
At the end when Maynard says, "Silence, legion, save your poison. Silence, legion, stay out of my way" Many people think he's talking to Tool fans about staying out of his personal and family life.
Or at least the critics.
Or the bible. Mark 5:9
Mark 5:1-9 King James Version (KJV)
5 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,
3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
I don’t think he’s talking about the fans, I think he’s talking about the demons of temptation and demonic people and forces that have power in this world
"here from the king's mountain view, here from the wild dream come true." he's on top of the world, living a wild dream. countless dreams born from wealth, and he would wish it all away if the alternative was losing his son. i think maynard has come a long way as a person. his son, and the death of his mom, i think fundamentally changed him.
I think it goes even deeper. I think this song is about death and losing a loved one and what you would be willing to give up just to spend one more day with that person. RIP Kory Moore.
In the lyric he’s saying that he would wish away all that he has even at the THOUGHT of losing the other person for even just one day. (The person Maynard is speaking about in the song you might think, is a lover, it’s not, he wrote it about his son.) However tool has also said that some of their songs are ambiguous and can be interpreted in different ways by the listener. The “tube” you’re talking about that Adam Jones is using is called a talk box. My favorite Tool song.
By far my favourite track on this album. "Prayed like a martyr dusk to dawn. Begged like a hooker all night long." Adam's use of the voice box was made famous in the 70's by Peter Frampton on "Do you feel like we do" and in the 80's by Mathias Jabs of The Scorpions on the track "The Zoo".
Tool is always up to interpretation, to me this song is about my relationship with my self. Stories I tell myself about how I would always choose my inner voice over a life of luxury or some other material attachments. But even the voice telling these stories can drown out the subtle hum of my inner peace It's difficult to maintain contact with my true self when I'm just surrounded by the echoing voices of my worldly attachments, despite the mantras of denial I sing.
Finally Jambi. My favorite Tool song. Schism is another great one.
Loving your reactions man, follow the Maynard trail and you’ll never be disappointed, truly an amazing lyricist. Some of his Perfect Circle stuff is definitely worth a look. Much love from Australia brother 💪
There may be a much darker meaning to this song but I’m not sure. Danny Carey is reportedly a satanist. Not sure about Maynard but he does seem to mock Jesus in a number of his songs.
Satan took Jesus up onto a mountain and offered him all the kingdoms of this world. This is a King’s view. He offers fame and fortune but the price is your soul. In one verse he says The Devil and his had me down, in love with the dark side I’d found, dabbling all the way down, up to my neck soon to drown.
It sounds like Satan offered Maynard all of the fame, fortune and lustful fulfillment of this world and he took it. He dabbled into the occult and got in over his head.
Now he has a son that changes his life so much that he say’s IF I could I would wish it all away. The fact that he say’s if i could implies that he cannot wish it all away. Satan does not let people out of their deals with him.
Many people don’t know this but Satan, before he fell, was in charge of music in Heaven. There are many stories of musicians selling their soul to Satan for fame and fortune. In a later verse Maynard say’s tempted the devil with my song and got what I wanted all along.
What convinced me that I am right about this is at the end of the so g he say’s silence legion, save your poison. There is a story of a man in the Bible possessed by many devils/demons. When questioned about the name of the demon possessing the man the devils refer to themselves as legion, for they were many.
I think this song may be about selling your soul to the devil and then wishing you could change it. Unfortunately it’s probably too late. Just a thought.
found, dabbling all the way down, up to
Jamel, I always enjoy your pauses and commentary, but watching your reaction to TooL is the best. I think most tool fans were pretty speechless / mind blown when they first experience it and grasp at the many layers of music transitions and lyrics. They still give me the feels even so many years later. Sometimes when I don't know what to listen to, I just put in your reactions. It's just great! You have an open ear for genres, and I love that about you! Keep on jammin!! 🎶
You keep mixing it up. At this point I'm like "How did he never hear this?" Love your reactions!
Tool is my favorite band!! You have to see them live to get the full experience!... I would love to see what you think about the band Clutch and Nine Inch Nails
Whenever I hear of Clutch, all I think of is whiskey lol!
@@Itsunclegabby Sounds like you've had fun listening to Clutch. Lol
Tube in the mouthness:
Do You Feel Like We Do - Peter Frampton
Sweet Emotion - Aerosmith
Man in the Box - Alice in Chains
These Shoes - Eagles
Benedictine Punk living on a prayer ...
That would be Joe Walsh, with the Eagles...
Don't forget Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi
"Silence legion,
Save your poison
Silence legion, stay out of my way!"
The most emotional thing I've ever heard expressed in musical/lyrical form.
Yeah, brings tears for me also.
I think he's alluding to the conquering of Rome lol
Agreed... I have schizophrenia, and that speaks to me in volumes.
A Perfect Circle - Counting bodies like sheep and Tricky - Evolution Revolution Love, please?
B.I.D. Lighthouse .... tricky opened for tool the first time I saw them live.
Pet
Pet. Not counting bodies... That is a remix of Pet and people just don't even know the title of the song. Pet by a perfect circle.
I think it's just called War Drums.
@@Lukos0036 the song is called Pet, as stated before.
Jambi is my daughters favorite Tool song. Teaching her the ways of Tool at a young age.
Can you please react to Swamp Song and Flood off of the Undertow album.
❤
Yes to Swamp Song, it makes me think of my ex. 🤣
PLEASE
PLEASE
PLEASE
WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU REACT TO A SONG CALLED PASSENGER BY DEFTONES.
It features the singer from tool!
I promise you will love it!!
PLEASE
PLEASE
PLEASE
The Maynard vox sections always send chills.
YES YES YES PASSENGER IS A MUST
Always agree with this request.
I am pretty sure he’s done it.
Freddie G he didn’t shortly after I posted this three months ago
To me Jambi is incredible song because you can listen to it as a breakup song or falling in love song,works both way.
Its prolly not about that but thats my impression of it.
Hey man, please react to some Frank Zappa. Dudes a mad genius, and I think you'll love it. Cosmic Debris, Joe's Garage, Uncle Remus, and Black Napkins are some of my personal faves, but its hard to go wrong with Zappa, imo.
St. Alfonzo's pancake breakfast! Is a great Zappa song!
@Fire Ant Shotgunfair enough!
Titties and Beer, Occams Razor
Zappa is like a stinky french cheese. It's an acquired taste that needs easing into.
To me this song meant everything to me. When my son was born, he was jaundiced and put under those lights with the blindfold. I left one day to get my wife some food and was listening to this album while out and about. I had already spent a couple days staying up watching over my boy, making sure he rested well, and his blindfold stayed on. While out on my trip to get lunch, this song came on... Bare in mind, I've dabbled in all matters of debauchery, it seemed as tho everything came full circle that day. I was shown what laid before me and what could be. I wept. I listened to these words like they were gospel. It hit me like ton of bricks. Everything I had ever done was laid before me, and it was all washed away. I had got what I wanted... I got my son... and I had a true purpose in this life... it changed me. I am the king of my world and I control my destiny. My family is my world now... not my party life. Silence legion, stay out of my way
Prayed like a martyr dusk to dawn
Begged like a hooker all night long
Tempted the devil with my song
And got what I wanted all along
My favorite verse
Im curious, what did he mean by that verse?
@@jeraldcandelario3881 very late response but I think it’s praying and begging for (whatever this song is about) to never leave him and stay along forever. Some people think it’s about his son. When I hear it I think about my relationship with spirituality and god. I interpret it as I hope my knowledge and relationship with god/universe/divine never leaves me and that it only grows strongrr
Even later response: imagine your wife in the hospital giving birth. What would you offer to give up to make sure both made it safe?
You're absolutely right about the tube in the mouth thing. That's what Adam is using to make that sound. It's an effect typically called the "Golden Throat", or "Talk Box" that mixes your guitar signal along with the signal of the tube in your mouth to effectively "talk" through your guitar. Peter Frampton (a great musician from the 70's) also used it a lot.
Tool defiantly love their complex time signatures and polly rhythms that’s for shore.
Swamp Song or Hush
But i cant say what i want to, even if im not serious.
People never react to anything pre-Ænima. Idk why, all the songs are still amazing!
@@dornomac I mentioned "Jerk Off" and "Cold and Ugly" but he might have lost his notification due to an edit, hopefully they'll be gotten to, but I'm patient on this journey
@@dornomac and if/when they do, they're already conditioned to the evolutionary level of today's Tool and they don't seem to appreciate the early stuff. Though, from the beginning, they ALWAYS sounded like Tool, but they don't seem to appreciate the evolutionary steps that are evident in each album progressively when they start from the new stuff and work backwards. I remember when Undertow came out, there was nothing like it, even then, you knew a Tool song was a Tool song in the first 3 seconds when a new one was released.
@@MK-ti2oo that's it. I remember seeing the video for sober at my grandma's house when i was 11 or 12 and immediately knowing this was my favorite band. Then my buddy gave me his copy of opiate for some reason and I've been a huge fan ever since. It's cool that they're getting so much love these days, but if people don't know the early stuff, idk, it's like they're missing out on something. Hard to put into words, but you kinda nailed it with mentioning their evolution.
Wings for Marie pt 1 and 2!!! Best songwriting Tool has ever done.
Whenever anyone has asked about Tool, this is the kick in the teeth I share with them.
My personal favorite.
My dogs name lol
This was one of the first songs my son decided he really liked when he was like 5 or 6 ( he was listening to my iPOD in the backseat of the car). I figured he'd be as much of a music lover as his dad.
I'd recommend Panic Room by Silent Planet. Having grown up with a military father with multiple deployments and now having one under my belt, the lyrics really hit home.
Love the hoodie. This is my favorite tool song love to see different interpretations
The intro to this song literally shook the arena i was in when i seen them.
Just saw them in Memphis 4th row floor. This song almost shook the heart out of my chest! The best show by far I've ever seen.
I saw them in Denver at the start of their tour and the crowd went crazy when this song came on.
@@sebastianmadrigal5125 heck yeah that show was awesome the laser work during the show was outstanding.
@@rikjaims9118 I hope they come back soon. I would love to hear 7empest live and maybe even Bottom
Saw them in Bossier City. Transformative
A Perfect Circle- "The Package" awesome song..
Another great reaction ! I love listening to your TOOL reactions, you have a great ear... I love how quickly you get the gist of their genius :))
I’m seeing them in Sydney in February. I just pray they have Jambi in their set list! One of my favourites by them.
Oh and a request if I may... please react to H. by TOOL.
Not many ppl react to this gem of a song. It’s highly underrated !
TIA 🤘
💚 my fav (at the moment)
"The devil and his had me down
In love with the dark side i found"
"But you changed all that for me
Lifted me up, turned me around"
"You, my peace of mind, my all, my center"
"Shine on benevolent sun.
Shine down upon the broken"
"Shine down upon the many
Light our way, benevolent son"
... I mean... Just... Fantastic.
And tool never gets old. Been in their army for about 20 yrs now.
Really enjoying your reaction to them.
Thank you 😢😢😢😅😅😅😅😅
Great song! I believe this was the only studio song that Danny used his Paiste kit on. I’ve always loved this song. Before, I never got Tool, but after many listens, I’m starting to understand them and like them. Ticks and Leeches is a great one for drums, but the title track to Fear Inoculum and Invincible are also great ones.
Loved your reaction to this song, especially during the breakdown solo. Pretty heavy stuff!
Ahhhhhh! Computer love! Zapp and Rodger. It's the same effect except with the guitar rather than keyboard. Cool reference!
You should just do all the Tool albums. Full album reactions. Start with Undertow.
First album opiate
Eric Drew: “You should just do all the Tool albums. Full album reactions. Start with Undertow”
Opiate Album: ***dies in neglect***
@@CanadensisKrew great album only 6 tracks but so raw!!! It can be forgetful at times
Tool is a great band. You should check out Maynard's other bands as well. Namely Puscifer "Conditions of my Parole." Very funky back beat.
I love the intensity of this song. That laser beam stare from darkened entity is equally intimidating and and awe inspiring.
I absolutely love this band and this song, and I absolutely adore your reaction to it!
Check Out Gyöngyhajú lány by Omega.
Alright. Let me help you a little. This album is basically a tribute to Maynard's mother he lost. So Jiambi was the wizard in the box on Pee Wee's playhouse. He wants his mom back is the just.
Jambi made me tear up in the first row when i saw them live. Out of all the songs played that night jambi stood out the most
It's like you're a natural Tool fan. You just get it. ❤❤❤ this was about his baby boy. 😊
Always love the Tool reactions, I jump on them as soon as I see them. I'm thinking maybe you should jump in and get your feet wet with some Radiohead... They are to me a band in their own genre, such as TOOL, you'll either love 'em or you'll hate 'em, hoping you will love Them! I believe these following songs by them are the best for an introduction...And the cherry on top for me, would be all 4 in that format.
Reckoner- Live from the Basement (my all time favorite song from them)
Paranoid Android- A possible still or lyric (official video too distracting!)
How to Disappear Completely- !Live! By youtuber EverThine (Yellow tint)
Last, but not least...
Street Spirit (Fade Out)
Fingers crossed 🙄 And thanks for all the reactions, glad to see you are opening your mind to new music and musicians daily. ✌
So with you!!!!!!!!
Just
I was thinking Decks Dark might be a good intro, even though it’s a modern Radiohead sound...
Tool and radiohead are my 2 fav bands hands down. I always play reckoner or weird fishes to someone who never heard radiohead. Its a band that if people hear the wrong song first they wont give it a second chance. I think in rainbows from start to finish is the album to get ppl interested. KID A is my all time fav but idthink its the right album to get ppl into the band.
Getting to experience these songs with you is such a special thing.
I know that by now you’re a full-fledged fan and love TOOL as much as anyone else, but man, hearing it with you for the first time is such a gratifying experience for someone who has been a fan for two decades.
Thank you, bro.
If I'm nit mistaken, the song was about his mother and her illness when he was child. Jambi was the genie from PeeWee Hermans playhouse and how he is asking Jambi to save his mother.
At least part of the song was about the mom, others could be about his son.
Just stumbled on your channel, and you're reviewing so many songs that remind me of high school 😂
You don't have to do a reaction video to it, but search a video of the 'isolated' bass track: your mind will be BLOWN
It’s unreal that the vocals and melodies are written after the music is done. The lines that MJK finds in those notes is unreal! I would never hear those melodies in a song like this
Time to dive down a RADIOHEAD hole! Start with Paranoid Android. Great reactions as always sir!
How to disappear completely. Idioteque.
Yes, I requested some Radiohead songs as well. I hope I picked some yyou'd agree on as well for introduction.
Yes! Radiohead is another deep wormhole to fall into! Weird fishes!
Pleeasee
They have several near perfect albums all released in a row, The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A and Amnesiac. Remarkable live.
Highly inspired by them and also phenomenal live is Muse, though stick to the first few albums.
It is most definitely time for 3 Days by Janes Addiction.
Great reaction as always. Maynard’s lyrics are always thought provoking. Mix that with the musicianship of the band, and you have yourself some mind-blowing music.

@@truther4life It was never fully proven that he was crooked, but widely believed to be b/c of what was said.

I’d love to hear you react to some Talking Heads. “Once in a Lifetime” changed the course of my life when I was in my late teens/early 20’s. I decided then and there that I was not going to wake up some day and and yell “My God what have I done”. I am 60 today and I am still grateful.
Everyone should just watch Stop Making Sense. Great concert movie.
I honestly enjoy stop making sense more than some of the studio versions. This must be the place is one of my favorites from any band ever
I saw the Stop Making Sense concert at The Greek in LA I believe it was in 83. Incredible show. Only matched by David Byrne’s current American Utopia show.
@@desmondfarrell2027 I like those versions better for the most part.
I thought the entire album was about his mother Judith. 10,000 days being a references the day she was diagnosed with her illness to the day it took her from this world.
"tube in his mouth?" Jamel that is exactly what it is. Glad you caught that,
Please please please - review The Glass Prison by DreamTheater
Dang, I've sang this song, damn near everyday since I saw Tool, in October. I love it. Keep up the good work.
Slicedbread caught their Vegas show. They’re amazing man
Saw it at the Louisville show and had never delved too deep into it, after that show I did and then I got to see it again in Indy and had a whole different appreciation for it. Next week is Nashville! Loving this tour! 🤘🏻

The LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Not money itself. Greed. The love of having money for its own sake. And this has never rung more true than in the current political and socioeconomic circumstances.
yes sir..the climax on this song is truly fantastic!! Aenema ws allways my favorite album, but this album is underrrated and is starting to grow on me now that the new album has settled in..but who am i kidding, each and everyone of their albums are masterpieces! like many others..you should do lost keys/rosetta stoned..craziest lyrics ever by Tool!
Bro. It's about Maynard. His mother. 10000 days.
Hell yeah. I love this band. I met the drummer a while back. My company makes his drumsticks and he came to check the place out. We're doing a run of them tonight .Very unique design for his stick.
I love that stick! I’m assuming you are talking about the Vic Firth’s? It’s slightly heavier than a standard 2B and has that tapered handle.
@@frightenedsoul Yep. The butt end of the stick is a pain to get right sometimes but we take the time to make sure it is. I like being a contributor to their excellent music in some small way.
You have reacted to the best Tool albums, but when will you react to the Tool Opiate and Undertow album?
Even when you don't get the exact meaning of the sing, it's always a great take on them. Keep it up. Love your channel.
One of my favorites! Loved the reaction. Also, that Star Wars sweater is pretty sweet too.
this is the most complete band with psychadelia.fireeee
Blessings, your like/dislike ratio in this song is probably the best I have ever seen on any TH-cam video..
I'd happily pay 50 quid to see you react to the inseparable twins video that was played over this song (back when tool songs had dank ass pirate videos on YT)
2 things: your face when the song kicks in is priceless, and that hoodie is it man. good stuff.
Really been loving your Tool reactions. I buy TH-cam Premium so I can listen to whatever music I want, when I want, commercial free. I listen to a lot and find this platform to be perfect for finding new music. I subscribe to only a few 'reaction' channels, but I've been enjoying your's.
I'd like to suggest WAR - City Country City, if you've never heard it. WAR is a much under appreciated group of seven superb musicians and songwriters - each a star in their own right. Everyone, and I mean everyone, knows Cisco Kid - and it's a great song. But there are so many more of theirs that really should be heard by today's generations. City Country City is instrumental, and a bit long, but the journey it takes you on is well worth the time paid. I dare you not to dance through parts, or shout through others. They start down the road with a nice smooth ride, but then keep venturing off onto side roads with longer and longer excursions, finally to arrive at the newly appreciated original destination. Really a good into into who they are. Four Cornered Room is an excellent vocal track, if you'd rather lyrics. The World is a Ghetto of course being what they're most likely remembered for, but it's also well worth hearing if you've never before. Blisters is just fun. TH-cam is some running re-mastered WAR, and it's so much more gooder listening to those. You get the full sound like it used to be if you're running 5.1 or 7.2. Hope you look into them.
I recall buying this album when it was released. You'd run it home, peel the cellophane wrapper off, hold it sideways to let the record slide out onto your little finger just on the edge, and catch the hole with your thumb - never touching it. You'd have to be lint and dust free or it would immediately jump to the record because of the 'brand new' static. Then you'd sit back with your friends beginning to end. Everyone would just immerse themselves in bliss. Listening was definitely a communal experience, but it was also so loud you could actually enjoy it as if alone. Good times.
