Woman if you want a "floating Tool" but doesnt like when it`s "floating too much" them mayby get yourself an inflatable hammer to hit yourself in the head with insted of listening to this? This way you can adjust "your level of floating" into perfection.
If everything in this song reminds you of Super Mario games and stuff mayby just buy a Nintendo.
Ahem, maybe just don’t watch her reactions if it makes you want to leave such a comment?!
And if u are this sensitive maybe internet is not for you.
@@viking_nor I am so sorry- did I make you feel uncomfortable? I just was not aware that we are in the presence of real men here, brave enough to be anonymously defending their like minded bully buddies…
What is this, trolls anonymous?! I can’t remember asking you for your opinion 😂
I, too, want to defend her. She's very honest, but she's also a recent fan of Tool's music. We all had years to grow up with, and mature (hopefully) along with it. I've never had reason to question her credibility, and this video only strengthens it. I suggest you check her other videos out.
Keep being yourself, Lauren.
@@violindylan Its not about defense. Its not about defending anyone. Nor attacking just to mention that also.
I watch most of her reviews and she`s great, usually I comment on that too.
Going online is a dangerous thing, which I belive, and wish, she can handle doing this kind of channel.
My comment was very impulsive. I stand by it.
The comments made in the review was a bit childish and ignorant to me at the time I saw/heard it.
I ment no harm. I love your reviews, lets continue.
A new Tool video?
On a Saturday??
Yes, it's true.
Enjoy your weekend. 😊
Thank you !!! .been patient ly waiting !! .
Totally unrelated to Tool… Today is Pinhead’s birthday 🥳
Oh and I think this is the most I've seen you move to a song !
I'm on week 1 of a hip replacement.... I'll try to enjoy my weekend 😉. This tool video helped!
Thank you! I needed it.
Nah this album is fantastic not all floaty ... From title track to 7empest got something for everyone ...Invincible maybe my fav goes between this and that
Invincible is my jam from this album. As an old warrior, it really hits hard.
Yes, the production values on their songs are fantastic. I love to listen to the details on each song. They can go soft, hard, metal, very versatile, not boring is what makes them great to me. No 2 minutes same riff pop songs.
#ToolArmy
#ToolForever
The whole canoe bit gave me a good chuckle so thanks for that haha. Also love this song, thanks for doing this Lauren :)
This is one of my top 3 songs by Tool . It reminds me of how you feel when you listen to their Salival album! Best part of Tool is you never no where they're gonna take you but your glad you spiraled to the end, cause now you've been where no one's been!😜
Adam Jones outsolo is incredible!!!
Your simultaneous appreciation and analysis of Tool along with the meta-tastic trolling of your own comments section is why we are here. *chef's kiss*
21:39 - This album seems to be looking back to their older albums. There are familiar riffs and throwbacks here and there.
Personally I like this evolution of Tool. It is nice to listen their albums in chronological order and hear how they have evolved.
I am awesome thank you 😉 and you young lady, you’re Awesome too 👊 Keep absorbing the Genius of 🛠️T⚙️⚙️L🛠️🔥🔥
I have to be in a mood to listen to this song and I have to be fully invested to truly listen and embrace this, including the lyrics. This is my favorite song from Fear Inoculum. I absolutely love Adam Jones outsolo, it just might be one of the top 5 best ever. His use of slide, talk box and other effects is completely out bounds. Incredible!!!
There is no possible way to thoroughly enjoy a song like Descending without multiple listens. The more comfortable you get with the song, and there's a lot! the more you can enjoy it. It's simply not your ordinary cup of tea. People with patience will find something quite beautiful and the impatient will fall to the sides.
Since you gave everyone Mario I will give you this...
That part you had to listen to again...that entire is like riding on a raft down a river, and then the river and a lot of rapids, and then just at that point when the song crescendos you go over a waterfall. You easily survive and enjoy the rest of the ride, all the twist and turns, because you know now you can survive anything, and then you reach the shore. The greatest river ride ever.
Descending is now my favorite Tool song, and I expect it to be for a very long time. The song has everything because Tool allowed no boundaries. Epic yes.
This remains my favorite Tool song.
20:17 - I'm uptight, but I don't feel any floatiness in this song. It took me few listens to really get into this album but this is one of my favourite tracks with 7empest, Pneuma and Fear Inoculum.
The part:
"Rise / Stay the grand finale / Stay the reading of our swan song and epilogue"
Really hits me for some reason. :)
It's floaty
I should’ve known better than to look in the comments section of a Tool video. Just wow. Good song and fun reaction. ✌🤘
“I’m somebody who has a favourite Shakespeare play, welcome to the channel”. That’s a sub from me
GET FLOATY!!! You heard it hear first! Yes!
I get home from work and watch you, and, people like you. Thank you!
Definitely has some 80s vibes in it, which I love. I hear some DEVO influence.
Album is amazing start to finish. Very different but at the same time easily recognizably Tool.
OMG i totally know what you're talking about regarding the video game reference. I can totally see it too lmao. I fucking love it though. This one is my fave on the album, though I do really love invincible.
I love how twice you said "bass time" in the middle, or at the beginning, of a guitar solo :D
The day this album was released I lay in bed that night and played the whole thing just relaxing in my darkened bedroom. This track stood out to me so much from that listen. I had no idea what track number it was until after the album played out and it went back through each track to locate it. It’s an epic.
When you said you felt just happy to be alive, I started tearing up. Ugh. I really felt that. I don't know why. I'm pretty sensitive, anyway, but Tool makes me cry, a lot. Plus, we had to put our 14 year old dog to sleep, Tues. night. Plus, things just suck, etc. Anyway, I haven't listened to this album in a long time. I need to break it out, lay on the floor and listen. They just sound so good! Have a nice Sunday : )
P.S. I don't know what my favorite track is, atm.
I did too, but only because this was filmed a month ago and I'm not in the same place I was then.
I'm sorry to hear about your dog. That's never an easy thing to do.
I'm hoping things will start looking up for the both of us---and for anyone else reading this comment. :)
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Thank you so much. That means a lot. I'm happy that you're in a better place. Yes, I hope things will start looking better for the both of us, too. : )
You're adorable. I love your reactions lol
❤️
"so good to see you, I've missed you so much ". 😎. Whoa, what a nice surprise! Yeah this is one of my favorite songs to listen to while in bed and in darkness. It's probably my favorite song from Fear Innoculmn
Invincible!!!!
You’re hilarious😆 Love your reaction! Descending is definitely my favorite song off of Fear Inoculum🤘🔥
This is one of the many Tool songs that gets better the more you times you listen to it
Song is like being born and dying. It's like waves coming in and waves descending. Being born and dying
Long videos are fine. :)
And especially when they are about a song this good!
My Favourite tool Album and song
Haha! I will definitely always think side-scroller video games in that section, now. Contra comes to mind.
I got into Tool in college right before 10,000 Days was released. For me, nothing compares to Lateralus & AEnima in terms of front-to-back cohesive album. It could be because that was my introduction and it's nostalgia. That said, Lateralus is more floaty, AEnima more raw. Third Eye and Pushit were the portals that led to the future floatiness. I still love singles like this from 10K Days and Fear Inoculum, but they don't hit me the same way as a whole compared to the other two albums. I think I like their earlier anger/edge combined with pushing the boundaries of the composition. I expected the former to wane as they inevitably mature as adults and became more successful, haha.
Feel the same way, but Fear Inoculum sometimes hit so hard that it comes pretty close to Aenima and Lateralus
My favorite Tool song, at this point.
Like...ever?
@@MusicCatsandCoffee yeah It is definitely mine as well. It feels liek the perfect bookend to TOOL. A young, angry Maynard did Aenema about wanting everyone to die in a massive natural disaster to wash the Earth clean... now older, wiser Maynard comes back to tell us that we have to stay our swan song, and RISE.
@@heathhooper3699 In the doubt, I've learned to swim
For me, yes. Fave Tool song ever. And I'm 60 and have been a fan since they started. How they do his voice, the arrangement of the instruments, the atmosphere...the whole thing is masterfully crafted and quite effective to me on both an emotional and cerebral level. When I put my headphones on in bed at night and listen to this in the dark I just get lost in this one and lose all sense of time. And for me the lyrics are very integral to the song and really hit home.
"Jerk-Off" "Hush" "Swamp Song" "Sweat" "Flood" "4°"
i love your "Tool" reactions and appreciate the time and effort you put into them
If you put a sail on a kayak, is it still a kayak?
Yes?
Don't worry Tempest and Invincible are definitely not floaty 🤣
Hey Lauren, you're quite right about the relaxing part of the song. Maynard asks in a singing voice to "stir us from our wanton slumber" but the song did quite the opposite... It brought me in a slumber. I am more the kind of person who likes the repeatable songs like vicarious, eulogy, etc.
I loved the video game comment, it made me think of the "James Pond" video game.
Keep up the great reactions!!!
“Maynard goes Canoeing 🛶” lol. I had to pause and get my breath back. It was like the perfect movie trailer pitch lol.
The album is kind of up and down floaty. That ends with a almost 16 minute song with some Angry Maynard. I know a lot of people hated this album, I found it to be Tool changing as they have on every album and yet another great experience.
“We all float down here” in 2023. hahaha…
When it comes to music, it all depends on the mood what I listen too.
“Invincible” would be my favorite off Fear Inoculum.
If you can’t laugh in life, what’s the point of living. Thanks for sharing this awesomeness with us!!!
Hey beautiful! Thanx for the new Tool reaction. I've missed that beautiful smile. Love the song and reaction. Sometimes I like to listen to an angry track and sometimes I like to chill, so like you it just depends on the mood. Invincible is also another great track from this album. Love always and your awesome too! Hope you have a great weekend as I will on this bright sunny day in Northern Maine!! 😊
My 2nd favorite track on this album. The 2nd half is such an experience! (My fav from this album is Invincible: the lyrics, the drums, and the BASS!) ;)
Probably my favorite on this album
Super underrated song
Invincible is probably the best track on the record, both lyrically and compositionally; Adam's guitar work on 7empest seriously competes with it as my favorite from Fear Inoculum though. I don't know if it's just me, but the songs on this record felt like they started out as more conventional Tool tracks lengthwise, but then they went back and extended a phrase hear and a added a measure there. Could be why the album feels noticeably more floaty, and thus off-putting to some fans who wanted either a bigger change sonically or a return to their more aggressive roots. I'm just happy they put out a new record period, especially after thirteen years of waiting.
Favorite track off of Fear Inoculum? Either Invincible or 7empest, depending on my mood.
I was picturing Sonic running full bore in loops. You made me miss side scrolling, lmao
My faves from this album are Pneuma and Descending; it's a toss-up. They are also my two favorite TOOL songs period. And quite possibly my two favorite songs from any artist. Just epic stuff!
My pick on this album is Invincible.
I’ve heard people describe listening to Descending as akin to having a religious experience.
I like it quite a bit. It’s not *my* favorite, but for those whose favorite it *is*
I get it.
This song is perfection.
Bottle fed my infant to it. She can’t make it through Pneuma awake. Danny can’t wake her up either. She will be four in April :)
Start with the title Track 1 Fear Inoculum. It's a genius song. Invincible is the track that relates most to me in my personal. I saw Tool in high school and got grounded for a month for being home too late. That was in 97. I took my mom to the concert in 22 and she loved it.
That's strange. I just finished listening to this entire album.
Cosmic Synchronicity?
Well, it is TOOL.
I was grinding Spell levels in Skyrim and I didn't want to hear the spell effects over and over, so I entered Tool euphoria. 😄😄
Life hits hard.
Hi Lauren, glad to see you back on to Tool! You should be interested to know that the same guy who produced this album also produces for your beloved Chevelle - Joe Barresi
Awesome :)
Terrific!!! I only recently came to love this song. Apparently, I’m a TOOL and awesome. Thanks, Lauren!
That's a rare combination. :)
14:39 that's a very strong and evil curse... And I should say, it works. SADLY
This album did have to grow on me but eventually I came to absolutely love it. Descending is definitely one of my favorite tracks on the album but the entire album is an experience.
Favorite track , after seeing it live, hand down is Culling Voice, Danny is playing the guitar in that one.
Palindrome is a common theme to this album. Descending is the very centre of the audio.
7empest is 🔥🔥🔥no float zone
Invincible is my favorite track from fear inoculum, 7empest is really good too and I enjoy the title track as well, I think incibke would be a good pick to do next because while it still has its floaty moments of course, I think there’s a better mix of the levitation and more grounded, structured parts of the song, but yeah this whole album is floaty but with varying degrees of it per song, imo
The floatness is soft in this one ;)
The best song on the album,hands down.
Nice reaction and i think the banger on the Album is 7empest . It would be great if you could do some reactions from their E.P Opiate .
I see you doing standup in the future.. love the reactions especially the pauses. hearing the cringes
Descending is the best track from FI
24:10 - Most days at the office I start with the album "Undertow" and end with "Fear Inoculum". And in between there is lot of Opeth, Porcupine Tree, Haken and Animals As Leaders. Some Pink Floyd and Jethro Tull to break the heaviness as well. And many of my collegues now enjoy good prog at their free time as well. :D
PINK FLOYD! ❤
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Hey, Jethro Tull's "Thick as a Brick" is a great live performance as well. ;D
I love that song!
17:52 a bit of "the grudge"
I think my favorite song on this album is the title track. I love all of them, tho I can't really explain why FI worked is way to the top for me. (my overall favorite by Tool is Reflection 👍)
Still need to dive into A perfect circle and Puscifer... Tool is the mind, A perfect circle is the heart, Puscifer the libido
You’re funny and cool!
26:05 - Aww, good for you! :)
Well...this was filmed a month ago. Not quite in the same place these days. Always happy to be alive though.
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Beeing alive is the best part of human life. :D
Amazing track, rising and falling like a kayak on an emotional sea.... a great album in my opinion, like the rest suggested, invincible and 7empest are absolute beauts too! Pause wherever and whenever you like Lauren, the people that enjoy your reactions will always be here, don't worry about the rest.... plus I'm a tool....
#embracethefloaty
Whoa! You were almost dancing there for a minute. Take it easy. If you want a break from the floatiness, consider 7empest. Then again, as heavy as it is, the song is so long it has its own floaty bits (that may or may not be as long as many complete songs from lesser bands).
Do people really dislike / unsubscribe if you rewind a portion of the song? Anyhow, I liked your video so that's one thumbs up!
Descending is certainly the song from Fear Inoculum that came the closest to the good Tool sound. And as you have been pointing out, the sound effects on the vocals are at least off-putting, to me they sound straight out bad. And already while listening to the second (and arguably the best) best song of the album you seem to get an uncomfortable notion of the boredom that is created by the album, even though your term is currently still "floating" xD
I don't know if that's the exact reason, but I definitely get comments about it all the time--just the pausing in general.
Did you notice that Maynard didn't sing in the last half of the song?
"Stir us from our wanton slumber" is the theme for the last 3 years.
It’s a humbling experience to see people this stupid out in the wild. Makes you appreciate what you have…
@@beefjezos2713 #81millionvotes
7empest is big and dramatic.
7empest is my favorite off of this album but I won't say why because I'm not a spoil alert kind of person
Kept waiting for a Pennywise float Gif
Dammit. That would've been good.
Having you experience a live Tool show would greatly outweigh your experience of a live Slipknot show. I have experienced both and Tool transcends both.
BASS! I love it, is that one of your shirts?
Thanks! Yep, sure is. ☺️
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Well I look forward to being able to buy one :)
You should be doing the evening news
I think the people who complained about this album are those that couldn't get over the long instrumental sections and Maynard's limited lyrics. I personally couldn't listen to this album without smiling for at least a couple weeks after it came out.
It's so hard to pick a favorite because they are all good for different reasons. If I had to choose, it would be Culling Voices. Partly because of the lyrics and also because when they perform it live Danny plays guitar at the beginning of the song too.
I wish you hadn’t rewound it before the climax. You missed that experience.
You stopped it twice during the climax!!! Staying subscribed though.
Please react and justice for all metallica album
What the heck does floaty mean?
The only reason you don't like this album is you expected it to sound like one of Tool's albums, Ænema, Undertow whichever. First rule of tool...leave you expectations at the door. My opinion it as great, in it's own way, as great as their others. Tool had an album for however your feeling. Shed some anger I reach for Undertow or Opiate, stretch my third eye...some Laturalus, reach up for 46&2 Fear Inoculum can get you close. People who don't like it you will notice it usually followed by " it's not as good as "fill in Tool Album". Give me random keep me bewildered, take me somewhere one's ever been. May I ride the spiritual of divinity and always keep going
Do you find it ironic that while reviewing a song you admittedly did not explore the lyrics on, you found yourself being pulled along and floating when the very meaning of the lyrics is that you can float along and drift away to nothingness or take ownership and become more than a collection of particles floating in the soup of society?
This album just seemed weird for the first several listens and I didn't like it either. Similar to a new roller coaster, I think it is just a bit overwhelming and floaty the first couple rides, but then once you are familiarized with what's happening and can process all the details passively, it's amazing. Other albums were that way as well, but not quite as much as this one, so I knew I had to just keep retrying it until "taste acquired".
Or to put it another way, this album is just like the Titanic:
only floaty for the first part of the journey
TOOL is my favorite band ever and fear innoculum is easily my least favorite album of theirs as a whole because it’s so floaty for the most part. 7empest as the last track brings it back in a great way though. You should check that song out for sure!
You compare a lot. The song doesn't have to be compared to something, just let it be itself. It's fantastic.
why are you so hung up on "floatyness" , love your stuff but i don't get the descriptor ? it is a serious call for humans to fight to carry on.
I am so offended by the pausing, that I will be unsubscribing twice. Seriously though, I never heard such clumsy pausing. It's as if this is the first time you've heard the tune. We all float on, I guess. I offer a blink and head bonk to your cat or cats. To answer your question, I would choose angry visceral tunes for my bad mood. And I think the title track of Fear Inoculum is great. So is Invincible. Best wishes.
