    TOOL is basically a band made up entirely of a rhythm section. There really are no proper leads. Every member has a job. Every member is showcased at some point and leans back at others. They blend better than any band I know. Very primal, very spiritual and very cross cultural. They borrow inspiration from areas most wouldn't consider. But they get into your spine and never leave it. Very special band.

      And then I heard of bands like Tool, where everyone is the engine, everyone is the steering wheel, the paintjob and the fluffy dice. But here is the key; to be able to play the right roles at the right times. Bands like Led Zep and Tool are masters of it.

      Maynard was in a failing attempt to become a country music singer and Danny (drummer, and oldest member of Tool,) somehow managed to talk Maynard into changing genre and joining his band.
      Maynard had a LOT of pent up emotion; his dad was an abusive pastor, his mom battled cancer and lost.
      Maynard brought that tempest of unbridled rage and anguish to his lyrics, and Tool changed the world.
      They don’t even have a record label. They put their own money into their own production. Full control of everything.
      They named their own business entity as their record label. They have full creative control, which is why they sound the way their do. No one tells them how to sound.

    46&2, the drums in that one are so so good and it's another accessible song where the time signatures aren't as complex às most of their stuff.

    You have a very rare and unique gift, it's called Synesthesia. It's the ability to experience more than once sense at a time. I have Synesthesia and have had difficulties explaining to people how it is that I see colors in music like a painting being painted, or can taste a color. Sometimes my taste buds aren't able to identify the exact flavor, but to me it tastes purple. The way you spoke about the lyrics sounding like blues because they are action oriented, was the key I was missing. I knew the blues were the answer, I've had that answer for years, but didn't know what question it was answering until now. The Indigo Chakra is the third-eye, its the space of collected energy of both the thoughts and feelings that come together to form our BEING of energy, the part of us that gets put into ACTION. Only you said it in a way that helped me to understand why I love old songs by Billie Holiday, Etta James, and other blues artists. They sung about what they were thinking and how they were feeling, not just about things. Thank you! This is the first reaction video of too many that I've watched where the viewer actually breaks down each element and explains what they appreciate about the music and the lyrics as they come together as one whole entity of song. You've got the music in you too, the frequencies and higher perspective of Hymn. Keep rocking out! Tool creates some of the most thought and feeling provoking songs you'll ever experience. Check out some songs by Primus, the bass will slap you so silly that you won't be able to sit still. Stay blessed!

    Been listening to these guys since the 90's. I've never been disappointed. The best way I describe the band is that anyone in tool, could fill in and play with any other and around. But there are very few if any at all that could sit with Tool and try to play along. welcome!

    Tools ability to bring everybody into their rabbit hole of a catalouge is amazing.
    Their time signatures, stylistic patterns, they borrow so much from all spectrums of musicianship.

  • @Varek.50
    @Varek.50 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    You've definitely got an ear for the intricacies of music. And lyrics at that. You're gonna love TOOL. Listen to RIGHT IN TWO by them next please. I think the drums, music, AND lyrics in that one will resonate with you.

  • @Thisworldistoobig
    @Thisworldistoobig ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's always a pleasure to watch someone genuinely discover the band Tool. Watching you get your mind blown on one of their songs for the first time brings me back to when it happened to me.
    And the song The Pot is pretty much a perfect entry point to listen to this band.
    Cheers!

    I just subbed '2 minutes in' after seeing you loving them so much. I really do love how 'The Pot' has become such a good introductory Tool song for people to react to on TH-cam. Glad you enjoyed it. Tool army will show up. Enjoy the ride.

    • @jimbojones8978

    Tool are indeed their own genre. They came out of the alternative rock/metal scene of the early 90s, but they ended up having such a unique sound that was utterly their own, a kind of progressive take on alternative metal, and despite their huge influence over the last 30 years they still remain utterly distinctive.

  • @kellyl819

    If that’s the best build up you’ve ever heard on this channel you have about 5 Tool albums to discover because each Tool song is a journey that builds, wanes, changes tempo, etc. And each tells its own story musically and lyrically. :) You’re in for a treat. It was so great to watch your reaction and feel what we all felt listening to them for the first time. Each new listen to a song you’ll find something new you didn’t hear before. So exciting to watch you loving it.

    I love how you describe painting a picture. I've listened to a lot of break downs of this song and this is the first time I've heard this. I admit I'm a Tool fan, but you hit it on the nose. This is the most talented band I've ever heard. The drummer is arguably the best drummer in the world. Maynard is one of the best singers in the world. The guitar and and bass are in the best in the world. If you enjoy music, even if you don't like heavy/progressive metal.... You know Tool is amazing.

  • @mackennzie9
    @mackennzie9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Welcome to the Army, dude. You're in for a hell of a journey! Danny Carey is probably one of the greatest drummers of all time, and is a master of polyrhythms. I, like several other commenters, am jealous that you get to hear them for the first time, but honestly, they don't ever get stale. Definitely look for the drum cam of Danny playing "Pneuma" live, too.

  • @easymac24
    @easymac24 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Tool is in a category its own theres a lot of bands that are like this but basically genrational bands that HAVE stood the test of time

  • @dan.j.boydzkreationz
    @dan.j.boydzkreationz ปีที่แล้ว +9

    In the intro, those are digital "Mandala" drum pads that Danny has samples on, but he hits with his sticks. He can have hundreds of sounds on each of the seven that he has in his kit.

    • @kumquatmagoo
      @kumquatmagoo ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think you're right but I know Danny works with Aloke Dutta for recorded percussion, so for the album tracks it is probably an actual Tabla rather than tha mandalas. He absolutely uses the mandalas for live shows though!

    Prepare yourself because there’s so so sooo much more to discover from Tool. I’ve often see where they describe Tool as being their own genre. These guys are music geniuses. I’ve only been listening to them for about a year now and I’m enjoying the ride so far in hearing everything from their 1st to last album. The only thing I will add is that They can hardly ever sound very similar to their other songs.

    • @x7empestx
      @x7empestx ปีที่แล้ว

      I’ve been listening to Tool for 13 years, you will never stop peeling through layers of their composition, even years later. I find new little nuances in their music to this day that I never internalized.

    Laterlaus, the grudge, 46 and 2, stinkfist, vicarious, pneuma to start but tool has some of the best musicians for each other as a band. The mesh perfect and everything appears to work for them the way they do things. Amazing talent in that band.

    New to the channel. But the Almighty algorithm recommended me to watch this. I am a fan of anybody experiencing Tool for the first time has a Tool fan that is very obnoxious about it. I have introduced to manny a person. I love to see a new fan born now you have to obsess over them for 20+ years and transcend your mortal being.
