Danny Carey went to sell his soul to the Devil in order to be the greatest drummer that every lived. The Devil told him "I don't deserve your soul. Keep it and put it into Tool". True story.
Danny Carey is a force of nature. He deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Neil Peart, John Bonham, Mike Portnoy, and Keith Moon. Who am I kidding? Tool is a band of geniuses. Justin is another one who never gets the level of credit he deserves.
lol the random guy at 12:16 was maynard. you also talked about drummers wearing headphone when playing. a lot of bands live play to a track so yes they wear headphones. whats cool about tool is that while their music is much harder to keep synchronized together they dont use headphone or backing tracks at all. they're just on stage jamming and playing together as one unit. thats why a lot of the times in difficult sections youll see justin and adam turn to danny and they will all be making eye contact to make sure that they are staying together and that the song wont fall apart.
When we wear headphones, we aren't playing to a track, we're getting a direct feed of the other instruments on the stage to our ears. Music is different on stage than what the crowd hears. Honestly, it's barely audible. As a matter of fact, you can see the monitor pack attached to the back of his shorts, so he's using in ear monitors.
@@JohnEDepth752 just wanted to comment that those are simply monitor headphones and if anything, there's a click added to keep the rythm.. but you were faster than me 😉
Doodah Man That’s what I thought, too, but apparently he wore this jersey in San Diego as well. If this is the Boston show... I’m in the 4th row center here in this video.
Yeah, Tool formed in LA. Not sure about the other members but Carey is from Lawrence, KS and went to the University of Kansas so you will often see him in KU jerseys as well.
He's so into it because it's literally taking every part of his brain to do it. Not only is he all over that drumset but each one of his hands and legs are doing separate timing at the same time
My favorite part about Danny is the MORE you understand music and drumming the MORE impressive he is. A lot of musicians it's actually the other way around. He is one of the all time greats.
Saw them back in Nov in Philly. No words. Danny stayed on stage after the final bow just smiling and waving at the crowd. Walking from one end of the stage to the other. Clearly having a blast. #PASSION&TALENT

The band formed in Los Angeles, however, Danny Carey (drummer) is from Kansas, Justin Chancellor (bassist) is from England, Adam Jones (guitarist) is from Illinois, and Maynard moved around a bit when he was younger, but was born in Ohio.
The guy with the mohawk was Maynard. He sings right next to Danny. Not your average front man up front. The band sets up like a quadrilateral, so every band member can see each other. They are One. You guys gotta go see then live once this virus breaks. They just canceled a bunch of shows unfortunately.
Live is otherworldly. For real, make sure you give yourself a little decompression/recuperation time after the show before really driving through traffic, and such.
Absolutley. I saw the mighty 4 in November. So happy I did. The shows are postponed not cancelled by the way. There is nothing like Tool live. Seeing them for the first time in 2001 was like a religious experience. My god. Beautiful.
Can't wait for more reactions guys, you're killing it.... Getting deeper in Tool, there's no way back now... You need moreeeeeeeee TOOL, and we need and want to see your reactions, keep the good work boys 🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
Not sure if it's already been said but the logo on his drums is a mix of the sign ''as above, so below' from alchemy and the Sigilum Dei Aemeth from Hermeticism. Danny Carey is into the occult. Dude's 58 and pretty much one of (if not, the) best drummer.
Still good to see newcomers to Tool. Kinda comes with the build up, and then release of everything coming with this newest album. Us Tool fans where just saying to ourselves, "you don't know, you don't know wtf is about to hit." They said eff it, and finally released the entire old catalog to take over on streaming services, and we were like, "release the Kraken!" We watched Taylor Swift fans crying about not even knowing who Tool was as they crush her newest release. I applaud anyone for seeing the light, no matter how recently. You're going to get effed up comments from Tool fans now and then because, owning up to it, we can be pricks about Tool. These guys are at the forefront of just about all they do though. Seriously, just enjoy.

Took Adam, Danny, and Justin, over a decade to compose the meat of this album. They sent Maynard the final copy two years ago. Took Maynard a couple days to write the melody and lyrics for the entire album, all while he was harvesting and pressing grapes to make his wine at his vineyard in Arizona. 🤯
Fulcruman1 they actually probably took more or less like 3 years to make it. They weren’t recording and composing the whole time for the 13 years since 10,000 Days. Still fucking excellent and honesty even more so w that info.
The album was completed in 2009. Maynard didn't believe it was all it could be, so didn't release it for 10 years of self doubt. I heard him say so in an interview
Love the fact that you went into this live video however, you need to properly react to Pneuma by listening to all aspects, this live performance is much more appreciated once you listen to the track first because you get distracted by Danny’s greatness, so I would recommend reacting to the track next, immerse yourself into trying to listen to all detail, also if you pause the video, rewind 10-15 seconds to not miss the build ups, can’t tell you how much I was pulling my hairs when you paused a few times just before the epic transitions of the song... we Tool fans take notice of this details and can be very critical and unforgiving. Also, if you go off course talking about other bands than just Tool, pause the song rather than talk over it because again, you are missing out on the details. Guy walking behind is Maynard, there are 2 platforms on this tour he transitions from left to right and also, the electronic sound you hear midway is a keyboard and not a guitar. All in all, towards the end you guys did a great job, keep it up, and at this rate keep doing all the songs from their new Album, DESCENDING should be next but not before you do Pneuma’s track justice again.
COMPLETELY agree...the live performance is really meant to focus in on one fourth of TOOL. Reviewing the studio version of the song allows you to see how this is just a PERFECT song in every facet of what makes perfection.
Hi guys! So glad to watch your progressions of reacting to TooL for the first time into THIS IS THE GREATEST BAND EVER! I've been a TooL fan since hs & am now a 36 yr old mom who sees them or Maynard (A Perfect Circle/Puscifer) any chance I get. For sure, as to how they compose their music- Adam Jones (guitar) & Justin Chancellor (bass) create something, give it to Danny he writes his part, the 3 of them come back together & tweak it all out & send Maynard the final product. Maynard then writes to that. This was said by Maynard & Danny separately in various interviews. I think that's why each instrument in every song sounds so polished & clean even though they give you chaos with time signature changes- which is intentional & gives them that tribal feel. They each had time to nail down & alter what they want to make this cohesive vs 4 dudes in a studio for a month scrambling to make their ideas work & throwing it out there sounding like shit. Anyway, stoked you guys are into my favorite band of all time. I'd really like to see you guys react to Third Eye off Lateralus...you should also do some A Perfect Circle. Judith would be great to start- that is about Maynard's mom who was paralyzed when he was young. His best selling wine at his winery is his Judith blend.
How do you even come up with the insane complexity of drumming patterns and percussive sounds like this to a song!?? Even Einstein would be baffled.😳😳😮
I was 15 when I first heard Tool back in 95. Lots of great bands have come and gone since then, but Tool persists. It's awesome seeing this explosion of people joining the ranks through these reaction vids, and even better seeing a whole new generation of fans that tie the generations together.
I love how through the most impressive part of the song drumming wise their just like “see that random guy walking” and “dang that guitar” meanwhile Danny Carey’s playing like 50 different polyrhythms right in front of them.
😂 And that wasn't the worst part! At some point there was a synthesizer playing some kind of lead, and that left dude was like "oh man, that guitar!", Adam wasn't even playing.
I got to see this live this past year and OMG! Never pass up a chance to see Tool live! It’s an epic experience! I’m in Austin so Danny had a Longhorns jersey on.
As for Danny’s jersey, he is from Paola Kansas. Kansas also happens to be probably the best place to see them live. I saw them last in Kansas City on the 10,000 days tour, had no opening act and played for 4 hours! I was incredible!
You are watching the greatest living drummer. I saw Tool this year (2020) the day Neal Peart died, Danny did a special tribute solo during “Chocolate Chip Trip”.
How wow how was it...Yea were just finding the amazingly talented of a group such as tool...please hit that subscribe button and stay tuned for much more.
When you guys were trying to figure out the name of the other great drummer I was thinking Neil Pert and then Tommy Lee came out. I face palmed. Not your fault but that one really caught me by surprise
To be honest, I hear Neil Pert name dropped way more. Probably because he’s a legend at his instrument and Geddy was just a front man. I’m not even a drummer nor am I a Rush fan and I know Neil Pert.
Maybe more so now but I knew this dude’s name in high school and, again, nobody was listening to Rush in high school. I knew enough musicians I guess to where his name would pop up in “greatest singer/guitarist/bassist/drummer” arguments
Also Danny Carey is known as the human octopus, because he's so quick and so good at polyrhythms without losing any power. Sometimes it almost sounds like there are two drummers lol.
You guys should check out The Remedy by Puscifer, Maynard's side solo band. The symbol on the drum heads I don't know what it's related to, but it's definitely custom and something important to him. He's way into occult stuff, sets up a shrine in the studio when he's recording and stuff.
Thank you all for reacting to this! It’s my fav right now, and many others seeing as it hit over a million views in a week. I like the little peak you get of Justin on the bass and Maynard with the Mohawk walking by and then showing up again at the end, all you see of Adam is his shadow.
As I sit here 2 Feb 2022Listening to you guys react to this as you’re so early in your TOOL journey is awesome. Wood you got your left forearm nicely tatted now and you guys are now Colonels in the TOOL Army. Love you guys!! Keep trudging 🤘🏻❤️💪🏻
Tool and Danny (drummer) are from Los Angeles. Danny is a huge NBA fan and tries to get jerseys for the local team from the venue/team wherever they play. He's actually in his 50s and one of the coolest, most humble guys in the business. And probably the greatest rock drummer ever. The "logo drums" are actually pads that each have 12 assignable zones. He has profiles built for every song with all the background sounds for the songs and plays them on the pads in real time live. It's actually unbelievable to watch. If you can find live footage of him playing "Eulogy" you will see it all worked together. It's amazing.
Crazy how many people are just discovering Tool with Fear Innoculum album. I love that so many people are getting into them and appreciating real music. I've been listening to tool since the early 90s but when people who primarily love hip hop appreciate Tool, then that shows just how good Tool are. Even metal heads who think Tool suck, are catching on to how good Danny is, and he's better then pretty much all the metal drummers.
I wonder, with someone as talented as he is, when he's playing a song like this, what's going on in his mind. Like is he super focused, or does he let himself go in like a trance.
Love it when Danny looks at the front camera and smiles. No one on a reaction ever notices it and what you hear is a voice box from Adam while playing the guitar!
Had me laughing when you started talking about other famous drummers. I thought you were gonna talk about Rush and Neil Peart. I would not know the lead singer.. By the way, you gotta do a react to Lateralus.
The observation about the vocals is exactly what Tool was going for with this album. Maynard has said that he considers himself an instrument in the band, not the leader. That is the reason the stage is setup the way it is. For this tour they had a platform on each side of the stage and a walkway behind the drums and Maynard walks back and forth between them, but behind the rest of the band.
First, a disclaimer: if I offend anyone, I apologize. I'm coming from a place of ignorance; not spite, condescension or animosity. Second, full disclosure: I'm OGT. That means biased. It seems that one of the most significant "challenges" for lifelong fans of rap/hip-hop to overcome when stepping into something like TooL is the complexity and texture of lyrics. (Boy if THAT doesn't scream "typical pretentious TooL fan") Let's face it, it seems (to an outsider like me) that most of the music behind rap is simply there to provide cohesive ambiance. The "real" music is of course the performance of the lyricist. Here is where the talent pool seems to divide by orders of magnitude- some of the lyrics (if not all in some cases) are not as important as the way in which they flow together. This gives a rap song "meaningless" aspects. Which, to the initiated, is totally not the point. The wordcraft and "music" produced by the human voice is really the focus, in these cases. There are exceptions, Kendrick Lamar comes to mind. He's serving up steak, not empty calories. But, with so much "flavor of the club of the month" braggadocio and dis-tracks, I would hazard to guess that gleaning metaphors from lyrics sticks to a predictable range of topics. Which, the TooL Army will quickly point out, will leave you ill-prepared for the myriad concepts TooL explores. The most accessible song that translates willingly might be Hooker With A Penis. Straightforward, "you're this, and I'm this, and you act like this, and I'm here to set you straight." Contrast this song with The Pot. Still a straightforward track within the TooL catalogue, but let someone listen to it for the first time and ask them "what was that song about?" I'm not saying none of them will get it... I'm saying none of them will get 46&2. TooL's subject matter, specifically, and the way it's presented, specifically, are not universally explored by people. Lateralus... speaking of which. The guy on the right, on this channel, mentioned it in a video (think it was for The Grudge) and brought up the Fibonachi Sequence (naturally). Then, explaining a bit about it, says "fractal..."- that's the moment I scrolled up and clicked "subscribe. My whole point, the TLDR, is that music for entertainment is fine. Listening to TooL just to groove or workout is fine. But unless you're somewhat versed in peeling back layers within lyrics and song structures already, stuff like TooL can have you feeling kinda lost. Or blissfully oblivious. I suppose that oddly poetic in itself. ⚫🍥
You're very right about the nature of the vocals in rap. The vocalist is essentially a rhythmic instrument, and the lyrics the different tones they play. This allows the vocalist to dictate the form of the song to a great degree. This works in that genre because the music serves little purpose than to accent the words and provide a memorable hook. But with a band like Tool, the vocals/lyrics are a melodic instrument, and while the words themselves have deep meaning, the way they're structured is entirely subservient to the music itself. This is different from many other instrument-based bands, where the lyrics and vocal line are presented as the primary focus of the song. With Tool, the vocals are equal in importance to the rest of the parts.
Love watching people slowly being swallowed by the greatness that is Tool. You guys should definitely react to one of Maynard’s other bands, A Perfect Circle, song called Judith... it will definitely put your love for him to the test. 👏🏻
Adam Jones said he finds it very difficult sometimes to keep up with DC cause he's on some other shit all the time. So funny. DC is the best. Hands down.
Most of the songs off the new album, Fear Inoculum, are light on lyrics. It's partially because they're all over 10 minutes long. Also regarding him flipping drumsticks, it's not just for show. You get a different sound out of the drums if you use different ends of the sticks, and in different ways. Danny Carey has a solo in their concerts where he plays on a giant gong where he showcases what striking differently with different types of mallets can do.
Y’all are dope, please cut that music y’all are using over your conversation. It takes away what most of tune in for; hearing you guys talk about something. Unless you guys are catching a check for using that song than rock on get your paper.
Dunno why but I really enjoyed this and previous vid from these fools! Reminds of when I turned my nephew on to tool NIN faith no more knew he would relate
If i'm not mistaken, the guitarist Adam Jones was a creature/special effects creator for Jurassic Park, Predator 2, and was later employed for T2, but left to record their EP Opiate. This is also why their music videos are so trippy sometimes, he makes the puppets that are used in the videos. For Tool songs I would suggest, Lateralus, Vicarious, Wings for Marie (parts 1 and 2) Jimmy, Pushit-Salival version, The Patient, and Parabola.
Trash Talkers Puscifer is an American rock supergroup formed in Los Angeles by Maynard James Keenan, known as the lead singer of the bands Tool and A Perfect Circle. As Keenan is the only permanent member, he considers the project to be his "creative subconscious." Highly recomend Queen B or The Remedy. ✌
Great video! You were talking about lyrical geniuses so I’d love to see a Rush reaction from you! Songs like Limelight, Closer to the Heart or Tom Sawyer would be my recommendations!
The band started in LA in 1991-1992. Vocalist: Maynard was born in Ohio but went to High School in Michigan before joining the military. After the military he lived in Boston for a while, wondered around for a while before ending up in LA Guitarist: Adam Jones was born and raised in Libertyville, IL (outside Chicago). Moved to LA after high school Bassist: Justin Chancellor is from England and was in the band Peach before joining Tool in 1995-1996. Tool covered Peach song “You Lied” on their live album Salaval Drummer: Danny Carey is from a small Kansas town Payola, KS...outside of Kansas City. He also moved to LA after high school. Danny almost always wares basketball jerseys when he performs and many NCAA and NBA players have gifted him jerseys over the years. There a brief rundown of the band’s members.
You can see how his whole entire body breathes into the next beat! His attack and flow is phenomenal! Danny is 6 ft 5 so he must have the arm span of an albatross! Being trained musically it’s easy to recognize the best of the best…. They have that “something” that you know you just will never have! I will always maintain that they are born with this gift this talent! He is so incredibly relaxed and attacking so hard and effortlessly at the same time! Of course he trained and practice like hell but he was born with a special musical gift!

"Did you see that random guy walking?" That "random guy" is the singer, Maynard.
Yup. Maynard randomly switches from rigth side of Danny to left behind Adam & Justin
Funniest part of reaction : making fun of hair jajja love it.
I believe the artist they were trying to think of when they mentioned "spikey mohawk" or however they said, is travis barker
Every city they visit/ the arena that host them gives Danny a custom jersey of the home team
I came to the comments to see how many ppl told em it was Maynard in the back

That's also the number for Larry Bird which is in competition for the top 10 players of all time.
Danny is a man amongst men. Not going to lie when you said greatest band on earth, heisenberg voice came in my head "your god damn right"
He's so into it because it's literally taking every part of his brain to do it. Not only is he all over that drumset but each one of his hands and legs are doing separate timing at the same time

For sure, as to how they compose their music- Adam Jones (guitar) & Justin Chancellor (bass) create something, give it to Danny he writes his part, the 3 of them come back together & tweak it all out & send Maynard the final product. Maynard then writes to that. This was said by Maynard & Danny separately in various interviews. I think that's why each instrument in every song sounds so polished & clean even though they give you chaos with time signature changes- which is intentional & gives them that tribal feel. They each had time to nail down & alter what they want to make this cohesive vs 4 dudes in a studio for a month scrambling to make their ideas work & throwing it out there sounding like shit. Anyway, stoked you guys are into my favorite band of all time. I'd really like to see you guys react to Third Eye off Lateralus...you should also do some A Perfect Circle. Judith would be great to start- that is about Maynard's mom who was paralyzed when he was young. His best selling wine at his winery is his Judith blend.
Danny"the octopus"carey. This m'en is just incredible. Love tool
How do you even come up with the insane complexity of drumming patterns and percussive sounds like this to a song!?? Even Einstein would be baffled.😳😳😮
Was waiting for this ... and here it is.
Love the channel. Brand new Sub here.
Hell yea bro...glad to have you as a fellow Trash Talker. Stick around for much more content
Patterns exist. Look for the patterns. Hope. Love exists. We are pneuma
Hey I'm 15 and I listen to tool everyday and im glad to see new tool fans. Maybe react to ticks and leeches next. Love the vids. You got my sub
Cool man! I was your age when I first heard tool. I’m 42 now. This band will never stop blowing your mind. Keep spiraling out!
Rock on n spiral out young brother......
15 here too man not enough people on the Tool life. Ride the spiral🙏
@@brandon984 tell your friends. I'm 29 and been listening to tool for 19 years. It's hard to hop off the tool wagon once you're inoculated
I was 15 when I first heard Tool back in 95. Lots of great bands have come and gone since then, but Tool persists. It's awesome seeing this explosion of people joining the ranks through these reaction vids, and even better seeing a whole new generation of fans that tie the generations together.
Danny Carey is the GOAT! Hes a beast
I love how through the most impressive part of the song drumming wise their just like “see that random guy walking” and “dang that guitar” meanwhile Danny Carey’s playing like 50 different polyrhythms right in front of them.
😂 And that wasn't the worst part! At some point there was a synthesizer playing some kind of lead, and that left dude was like "oh man, that guitar!", Adam wasn't even playing.
Rossi46Ido ikr 😂
@@Misanthrope84 And even worse of it was the 'random guy' was Maynard XD
I got to see this live this past year and OMG! Never pass up a chance to see Tool live! It’s an epic experience! I’m in Austin so Danny had a Longhorns jersey on.
I would love to see Lars Ulrich react to this video. Watching him react to a real drummer like Danny Carey would be epic.
As for Danny’s jersey, he is from Paola Kansas. Kansas also happens to be probably the best place to see them live. I saw them last in Kansas City on the 10,000 days tour, had no opening act and played for 4 hours! I was incredible!
You are watching the greatest living drummer.
I saw Tool this year (2020) the day Neal Peart died, Danny did a special tribute solo during “Chocolate Chip Trip”.
How wow how was it...Yea were just finding the amazingly talented of a group such as tool...please hit that subscribe button and stay tuned for much more.
You guys are awesome came by you randomly but just now subbed I love that you love tool can't wait to see reactions of other bands🤗
When you guys were trying to figure out the name of the other great drummer I was thinking Neil Pert and then Tommy Lee came out. I face palmed. Not your fault but that one really caught me by surprise
Geddy Lee is probably the more well known member of rush though...
To be honest, I hear Neil Pert name dropped way more. Probably because he’s a legend at his instrument and Geddy was just a front man. I’m not even a drummer nor am I a Rush fan and I know Neil Pert.
@@kikoperez7880 to be honest, its probably because he died less than a year ago.
Maybe more so now but I knew this dude’s name in high school and, again, nobody was listening to Rush in high school. I knew enough musicians I guess to where his name would pop up in “greatest singer/guitarist/bassist/drummer” arguments
Tommy Lee is no slouch on the drums. He's pretty nasty in fact but not on Peart's level.
Wake up child. The light calls us. Wake up now. My child. This dream. We are one breath. One word. We are slowly becoming
Also Danny Carey is known as the human octopus, because he's so quick and so good at polyrhythms without losing any power. Sometimes it almost sounds like there are two drummers lol.
You guys should check out The Remedy by Puscifer, Maynard's side solo band. The symbol on the drum heads I don't know what it's related to, but it's definitely custom and something important to him. He's way into occult stuff, sets up a shrine in the studio when he's recording and stuff.
Ya all hit 10k!!!! Congrats my friends!!!
Danny is into the occult and sacred geometry. The symbols are on his drums.
That makes me sad... Isn't that Architect Randal Carlsons gig?
I think that might be DC taking the piss out of Wikipedia. I might be wrong, but...
Listening to you two talk reminds me of exactly why I fell in love with Tool.
Whenever I watch this video, I see Thor slaying those drums.
I love all your reactions keep it going mad respect to you boys from Winnipeg MB Canada love you both
Love you back brother.... glad to have you on this journey into such amazing music
Thank you all for reacting to this! It’s my fav right now, and many others seeing as it hit over a million views in a week. I like the little peak you get of Justin on the bass and Maynard with the Mohawk walking by and then showing up again at the end, all you see of Adam is his shadow.
love your avatar pic...if you haven't noticed Hollywood and smokey are both mixed with Irish,. hit that subscribe button and stay tuned for much more.
As I sit here 2 Feb 2022Listening to you guys react to this as you’re so early in your TOOL journey is awesome. Wood you got your left forearm nicely tatted now and you guys are now Colonels in the TOOL Army. Love you guys!! Keep trudging 🤘🏻❤️💪🏻
That “random guy” with the Mohawk is probably Maynard dudes 😂
Tool and Danny (drummer) are from Los Angeles. Danny is a huge NBA fan and tries to get jerseys for the local team from the venue/team wherever they play. He's actually in his 50s and one of the coolest, most humble guys in the business. And probably the greatest rock drummer ever. The "logo drums" are actually pads that each have 12 assignable zones. He has profiles built for every song with all the background sounds for the songs and plays them on the pads in real time live. It's actually unbelievable to watch. If you can find live footage of him playing "Eulogy" you will see it all worked together. It's amazing.
When you said "band with spiky hair," Rancid was the first band that came to my mind too
Great honest reactions from men who understand music. That was fun to watch!
Trash Talkers people say that those drumsticks look like hummingbird wings in his hands.
Maynard performs behind his band the band always shines especially Danny Carey who is a God on the drums for sure
Slipknot “Spit it Out” Live at Download 2009. Trust y’all...most lit concert you’ll ever watch 💯
Carey's in a different league to Joey Jordison. There's really no comparison.
@@charles_wren_films Carey is untouchable when it comes to anything drums :p
Charles Wren I wasn’t making a comparison . I was simply recommending a Slipknot song like they asked....
This video is legendary! We need a drum cam from this 2022 tour now, lmao.
Danny displays sacred geometry on and around his kit.
Crazy how many people are just discovering Tool with Fear Innoculum album. I love that so many people are getting into them and appreciating real music. I've been listening to tool since the early 90s but when people who primarily love hip hop appreciate Tool, then that shows just how good Tool are. Even metal heads who think Tool suck, are catching on to how good Danny is, and he's better then pretty much all the metal drummers.
12:18 *Maynard walks by
Did you see that random guy walking by?
Bruh XD
You two are the best - respect!!!!
If you want a tune that you can see the musician's really feelin it check out Snarky Puppy- What about me
If there is ever an interstellar music festival, TOOL will be Earth's representative!
I wonder, with someone as talented as he is, when he's playing a song like this, what's going on in his mind. Like is he super focused, or does he let himself go in like a trance.
Love it when Danny looks at the front camera and smiles. No one on a reaction ever notices it and what you hear is a voice box from Adam while playing the guitar!
Had me laughing when you started talking about other famous drummers. I thought you were gonna talk about Rush and Neil Peart. I would not know the lead singer.. By the way, you gotta do a react to Lateralus.

The observation about the vocals is exactly what Tool was going for with this album. Maynard has said that he considers himself an instrument in the band, not the leader. That is the reason the stage is setup the way it is. For this tour they had a platform on each side of the stage and a walkway behind the drums and Maynard walks back and forth between them, but behind the rest of the band.
Trash Talker check out Maynard's other two bands. A Perfect Circle and Puscifer.
Y’all are awesome!
You did this completely backwards. You should’ve listened to the album recording of Pnuema first.
P Kel feel like maybe it’s their choice 😛
chris mizell Yep, their choice. My opinion.
Just watching their faces melt into relaxation...welcome to Tool fandom.
Please remove the sound when you are discussing. Its really annoying...
Or you guy's could turn the sound off or turn the fucking channel. Dumbasses you're watching there reaction channel. L AF
@@jesuslovesyou5681 yeah, and we are giving feedback to make their channel a lot better! Thats it! Get your mood done.
Thanks for the content. Im coming along for the ride
First, a disclaimer: if I offend anyone, I apologize. I'm coming from a place of ignorance; not spite, condescension or animosity.
Second, full disclosure: I'm OGT. That means biased.
It seems that one of the most significant "challenges" for lifelong fans of rap/hip-hop to overcome when stepping into something like TooL is the complexity and texture of lyrics. (Boy if THAT doesn't scream "typical pretentious TooL fan")
Let's face it, it seems (to an outsider like me) that most of the music behind rap is simply there to provide cohesive ambiance. The "real" music is of course the performance of the lyricist.
Here is where the talent pool seems to divide by orders of magnitude- some of the lyrics (if not all in some cases) are not as important as the way in which they flow together. This gives a rap song "meaningless" aspects. Which, to the initiated, is totally not the point. The wordcraft and "music" produced by the human voice is really the focus, in these cases.
There are exceptions, Kendrick Lamar comes to mind. He's serving up steak, not empty calories.
But, with so much "flavor of the club of the month" braggadocio and dis-tracks, I would hazard to guess that gleaning metaphors from lyrics sticks to a predictable range of topics.
Which, the TooL Army will quickly point out, will leave you ill-prepared for the myriad concepts TooL explores.
The most accessible song that translates willingly might be Hooker With A Penis. Straightforward, "you're this, and I'm this, and you act like this, and I'm here to set you straight."
Contrast this song with The Pot. Still a straightforward track within the TooL catalogue, but let someone listen to it for the first time and ask them "what was that song about?" I'm not saying none of them will get it...
I'm saying none of them will get 46&2.
TooL's subject matter, specifically, and the way it's presented, specifically, are not universally explored by people. Lateralus... speaking of which. The guy on the right, on this channel, mentioned it in a video (think it was for The Grudge) and brought up the Fibonachi Sequence (naturally). Then, explaining a bit about it, says "fractal..."- that's the moment I scrolled up and clicked "subscribe.
My whole point, the TLDR, is that music for entertainment is fine. Listening to TooL just to groove or workout is fine. But unless you're somewhat versed in peeling back layers within lyrics and song structures already, stuff like TooL can have you feeling kinda lost. Or blissfully oblivious. I suppose that oddly poetic in itself.

You're very right about the nature of the vocals in rap. The vocalist is essentially a rhythmic instrument, and the lyrics the different tones they play. This allows the vocalist to dictate the form of the song to a great degree. This works in that genre because the music serves little purpose than to accent the words and provide a memorable hook.
But with a band like Tool, the vocals/lyrics are a melodic instrument, and while the words themselves have deep meaning, the way they're structured is entirely subservient to the music itself. This is different from many other instrument-based bands, where the lyrics and vocal line are presented as the primary focus of the song. With Tool, the vocals are equal in importance to the rest of the parts.
Let the TOOL army say... Keep going!!!
John, I did the exact same thing. Now for next Tuesday, dig into 46&2...
Love watching people slowly being swallowed by the greatness that is Tool. You guys should definitely react to one of Maynard’s other bands, A Perfect Circle, song called Judith... it will definitely put your love for him to the test. 👏🏻
I would say it’s extremely hard to be Tool’s guitarist or bassist, as it is extremely hard to keep up with Danny!!
Adam Jones said he finds it very difficult sometimes to keep up with DC cause he's on some other shit all the time. So funny. DC is the best. Hands down.
Thanks for getting to this video guys, you rock!
Slipknot: Everything Ends, Disasterpiece, My Plague, Left Behind, Wait and Bleed, Spit it Out, People = Shit, Duality, Psychosocial
Most of the songs off the new album, Fear Inoculum, are light on lyrics. It's partially because they're all over 10 minutes long. Also regarding him flipping drumsticks, it's not just for show. You get a different sound out of the drums if you use different ends of the sticks, and in different ways. Danny Carey has a solo in their concerts where he plays on a giant gong where he showcases what striking differently with different types of mallets can do.
Y’all are dope, please cut that music y’all are using over your conversation. It takes away what most of tune in for; hearing you guys talk about something. Unless you guys are catching a check for using that song than rock on get your paper.
It’s Vince Neil, lol. And Danny gets a custom jersey from whatever team plays at the arena where they are performing.
You guys need to get rid of the music you use when you pause the video.
Carlos Gonzalez I was coming to say the same thing. It’s distracting. Thanks.
Dunno why but I really enjoyed this and previous vid from these fools! Reminds of when I turned my nephew on to tool NIN faith no more knew he would relate
Lol thanks alot
Best to you guys man!
Outstanding!
If i'm not mistaken, the guitarist Adam Jones was a creature/special effects creator for Jurassic Park, Predator 2, and was later employed for T2, but left to record their EP Opiate. This is also why their music videos are so trippy sometimes, he makes the puppets that are used in the videos. For Tool songs I would suggest, Lateralus, Vicarious, Wings for Marie (parts 1 and 2) Jimmy, Pushit-Salival version, The Patient, and Parabola.
Trash Talkers Puscifer is an American rock supergroup formed in Los Angeles by Maynard James Keenan, known as the lead singer of the bands Tool and A Perfect Circle. As Keenan is the only permanent member, he considers the project to be his "creative subconscious." Highly recomend Queen B or The Remedy. ✌
I promise you, if you dudes liked this watch his TRIAD drum cam video. It's bad quality, but it's so ridiculously awesome.
Great video! You were talking about lyrical geniuses so I’d love to see a Rush reaction from you! Songs like Limelight, Closer to the Heart or Tom Sawyer would be my recommendations!
The band started in LA in 1991-1992.
Vocalist: Maynard was born in Ohio but went to High School in Michigan before joining the military. After the military he lived in Boston for a while, wondered around for a while before ending up in LA
Guitarist: Adam Jones was born and raised in Libertyville, IL (outside Chicago). Moved to LA after high school
Bassist: Justin Chancellor is from England and was in the band Peach before joining Tool in 1995-1996. Tool covered Peach song “You Lied” on their live album Salaval
Drummer: Danny Carey is from a small Kansas town Payola, KS...outside of Kansas City. He also moved to LA after high school. Danny almost always wares basketball jerseys when he performs and many NCAA and NBA players have gifted him jerseys over the years.
There a brief rundown of the band’s members.
You can see how his whole entire body breathes into the next beat! His attack and flow is phenomenal! Danny is 6 ft 5 so he must have the arm span of an albatross! Being trained musically it’s easy to recognize the best of the best…. They have that “something” that you know you just will never have! I will always maintain that they are born with this gift this talent! He is so incredibly relaxed and attacking so hard and effortlessly at the same time! Of course he trained and practice like hell but he was born with a special musical gift!
