lol poor brad... but he gets it.. he makes good observations... he always does seem a Lil more reserved. but then again lexi is always rocking out. I guess musical opposites do attract haha
One of my favorite Maynard lyrics : The moon tells me a secret, my confidant As full and bright as I am This light is not my own and A million light reflections pass over me
EXACTLY!... it takes quite a few listens to grasp the full effect ..but I digress I come from the age of listening to TOOL with out the aid of lyrics.. that being said I would fully enjoy a d.m.t EXPERIENCE with this duo while listening to the FULL LATURALUS album
Reflection is my favorite Tool song and it's probably somewhere in my top 3 favorite songs of any genre...ever. It's definitely a slow burn but it builds an eerie tension that is offset by the positive message. Something about the combination of sounds and words just...hits me.
"Pine Away" has nothing to do with your Pineal gland. To "Pine Away" is to fall into a state of depression while morning the loss of someone or something.
So, when Tool composes their songs, they will write the music first - then Maynard James Keenan will write his lyrics/vocals in reaction. For these 3 tracks, they were originally all written together as one piece of music at over 20 minutes long... they were later indexed into individual tracks for the Lateralus album's release.
Excellent, more Tool. Found you guys through your 'The Pot' reaction. Love watching Lexx's face light up when the metal kicks in, a true metalhead whether she knows or likes it.
i can't keep my eyes open listening this tracks.. it's just me or what?! i see lex is with me on this, while brad is trying to look at the music.. man.. shut those eyes and listen to this masterpiece
Only 1:20 in and Lex has asked to turn it up like three times while Brad's just sitting there like, "if I don't acknowledge her, maybe she'll stop asking." Haha
38:47 - Man: Trying to keep his composition. Slightly bob's to the beat. Woman: Allows the music flow through her. Enjoys the experience to the fullest. :)
Tool is the greatest shaman I've ever had while tripping, you won't regret trying it out. Also Lex, you should check out lucid planet at some point, I really think you would vibe their music like you do Tool's, and they are all about that entheogenic experience.
Yes man I found that band actually while I was on 58 grams of fresh golden teachers,holy shit man they are a great band as well,very tool like but completely different at the same time it's kind of wierd
You have served your Tool apprenticeship, now you are ready for Lateralus. Based around the Fibonacci sequence, the numbers of life found in the shape of leaves, waves, shells and this song has so many references to it (lyrics, syllables, time signatures etc.) and a great follow up to 46 and 2 thematically. I guarantee Brad will blow his mind analysing it and Lex will be totally lost in the groove. Spiral Out !!!
Lol. I can't help but smile watching lex, brad you better get with the programm lol. Lex feeling the beat and done turned metal head over this past yr, and you listen to the words, can't dance to the words, and lex dancing to the beat leaving you on the side line lol.
"What you got?" "Nnnnmm", hahaha! Fantastic! Man, y'all are going off this time - Ayahuasca, silent retreats, and Lex is starting to really get into it! So much fun, y'all keep on doing these Tool reactions, I really like hanging out with y'all.
Ive always felt triad as a journey through the history of mankind, just told through pure instrumental mastery, but I've also seen it as you say about being the actual mystery of your ego after reflecting on it. Great analysis and reaction, loving these videos. Now it's time to pry open your Third Eye.
Brad, love how you try to break these songs down, you get me to listen to these songs in a different way than I have before, even though I have been listening to some of them for decades. Keep up what you do.
She totally gets it. As amazing as maynards lyrics are, every song is music that you feel more than what he’s singing about. Just close your eyes and experience it. Then look up lyrics later for a deeper understanding.
Most thoughtful reaction channel on youtube. It's not even close. I love how you guys give everything a chance to make its points and really think about what you're hearing. The serious discussion of Jungian thought in particular is consistently interesting.
You are both so different but perfect together . I have been with my wife 41 years we lived together before that and I cant imagine life without her ! When i see you together It reminds me of us ! LOL
As a Tool fan since I first heard Sober as a teenager, all these years, and so much amazing music later and Disposition still finds its way as the song I love the most. There's a profound peace to be found, and vivid introspection. For me it's both the call for a journey of the mind's eye, and a familiar home.
Love you guys together.....but...everyone in a relationship should have one of Lex. She is such a cool, upbeat person and naturally beautiful to boot. And loves rockin' out like a boss. Great, smart reaction from you both. Don't feel left out Brad. Channel wouldn't be the same without you.
I see this song as crucifying those negative attributes of ones self, and rebirthing it in a new light, a new reflection that brings about positivity. A good metaphor in this song is that the full moon isn’t full without the light being reflected off of it.
Brad doesn’t know what to do without lyrics? Missing out in some good stuff (jazz/classical). Lyrics always come later to me. If I dig the vibe of a tune, I’ll look up lyrics.
I grew up on rock, grunge & alt-rock. I’ve “enjoyed” myself at raves, burning man & Laser light Pink Floyd shows.....how in the hell did I miss out on Tool?!
This dude is so worried about his precious ears he can't enjoy the music!! The girl wants to jam out dude.. She doesn't want to hang with her dad!!! 😜 Triad got her.. That tribal beat that Danny lays down in that piece is hypnotic!! I think we've got another recruit here folks.. TOOL ARMY!!!! 🤘
BRAD, you look like the only straight guy at a LSD PARTY. It’s all about the raw animal not the introspective view. It’s truly designed to let go not to figure out.
Watching Lex just feel this is amazing. It's is traditional Rock instrumentation, but the structures break almost every Rock unspoken rule, so to see someone grasp it so fully is pure joy.
FYI. I’m subscribing to you guys based on the fact I can tell you actually read the comments. Keep up the good work. A lot of people I know thinks reaction videos are dumb but I enjoy them. I really enjoy living vicariously (tool reference lol) through the reactors. Love yours guys reactions!
Hahaha I cannot believe you guys did all three songs together. I have not seen any other reaction channel do that. That is so cool. Respect to you guys. Disposition is such a beautiful song.
You guys both ROCK! Tool is still touring for Fear Inoculum last I checked, tix are expensive but worth it- both of you would enjoy the experience. Have a happy & healthy new year.
Man triad perfectly fits as a contrary ending to the calmer and more soothing disposition and reflection. Love playing this "holy trinity" over and over to get out my fustration and anxiety. Its a perfect musical medicine.
I usually don’t post my theories by I’m going to go ahead and do it. There’s a reason Tool never released their albums on Spotify/Apple Music/etc. it’s because the albums are supposed to be listened to in full. Also. The lyrics, as amazing as they are, are just 1/4 of the music. If it was me, and I was listening to tool the first time, I would close my eyes and hit play on the first track, then let the entire album play, and experience the album as a whole. Then afterwards, look up lyrics and listen again. Two different experiences. It’s the way I think they (tool) meant for it to be experienced. They are a once in a lifetime band and that is still plAying them down. They are literally a once in a forever experience. No one comes close to the experience they make. There’s a reason there’s a “cult” tool army. We aren’t a cult following. It’s just now everyone else is starting to realize the genius in this band. They will forever be, the greatest band ever. And I’m saying over zeppelin, over Pink Floyd, over whoever. This band is truly perfect, in every sense of the word.
I think that’s definitely part of the reason, but I think it’s a split among the band members and Maynard pointed that out the last time he was on JRE and joe mentioned that and Garth brooks he doesn’t want his stuff broken up. I feel like Carey was the main one in opposition of it because FI he wanted to be one singular song and I’m pretty sure these 3 were originally one song. Plus Danny is the one that talks about reprinting everything on vinyl. That’s just my thought idk if it’s right but to me it makes sense
The point is to not think. Mention anything, doesn't matter, watch weather change and nothing else. Don't miss enjoying the forest because you're focused on the trees.
Love that you guys reviewed some of their lesser known works! Tool is a whole land unto itself, one that requires the wide range of travel in order to encompass that landscape wholly. Also, ya'll are such a joy to watch!
I always interpreted the weather as a metaphor for "mood"... an inner weather. Imo the song is saying what you say no matter what, good or bad, big or small, it affects the world around you; the people around you, it affects their weather. Because the "I don't care what people say" is always a lie. You may act like you don't care but it affects you no matter even what even if it's only to make you ignore it. So to me this lyrics say, in a very peotic way, "be mindful on how you affect the world".
The eclipse is happening now btw, also, a Dijeridoo was playing tonight, at the local beach, Christchurch, New Zealand Fire and drum circle with fire-dancing. Supposedly a spiritual marker of new beginnings tonight
I got to say I really appreciate your guys's analysis of the lyrics specifically. I watch a lot of reaction videos for tool because tools IMO the greatest band that ever existed and you guys really do a good job!
19:36 A little out of context, but I'm pretty happy that my cracking pattern joke made it into the official video.
Brad. My guy. You don't need lyrics to enjoy these masterpieces. Sit back, close your eyes, and ride the spiral!
usually I would agree, but with Reflection I think the lyrics are special
I always say feel the music first, appreciate the lyrics later.
@@jacksmith4460 reflection is my favorite song ever recorded, so I agree. But it is still a song to close your eyes and vibe to!!!
@@jacksmith4460 The music in Reflection is awesome, but the lyrics do take it to another level. Absolutely love that song.
1000% disagreed.
she gets it. he's trying too hard to analyze it. gotta feel it bruh
Hell yeah turn it up a little bit that's how you know she likes it no hesitation just turn it up
Word
She keeps looking at him like maybe some day he'll get it, too.
@@jamesbolton9752 some people don't ,they just do not vibe with this kind of music and may never will ,its normal
Over thinking, over analyzing...etc.
Lex is feelin' it. Brad looks like he's about to be audited.
Like Mr. Spock with My Chemical Romance.
"I need a break" i have never heard anyone say that during a Tool song.
lol poor brad... but he gets it.. he makes good observations... he always does seem a Lil more reserved. but then again lexi is always rocking out. I guess musical opposites do attract haha
Lex is sexy af
That sound in Reflection is a Justin Chancellor, one of THE BEST bassist ever made.
Wolfgang took his dad to a Tool show and Eddie (Van Halen) walked away saying, "Fuck, that bass player, man, that was the shit!"
One of my favorite Maynard lyrics : The moon tells me a secret, my confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections pass over me
Same here
With the bass note after he says “my confidant”. Ahhh it’s so perfect.
Best lyrics of the song IMO.
Werd. Same.
Yep
My girl wouldn’t get this excited if I handed her a million dollars let alone listening to a Tool song. Keep up the good work.
I love how Lex really feels these songs while Brad wants to get in there and analyze it
EXACTLY!... it takes quite a few listens to grasp the full effect ..but I digress I come from the age of listening to TOOL with out the aid of lyrics.. that being said I would fully enjoy a d.m.t EXPERIENCE with this duo while listening to the FULL LATURALUS album
@@slantz49 on vinyl
Even more reason for a second reaction, he gets to feel the song while she can analyze =)
Lex's dance move are a whole freaking vibe. And Brad over there just enjoying the bongos 😄
*Drums.
Danny Carey doesn't use bongos
REFLECTION is my favorite TOOL song ..Maynard's poetic take on self reflection and destroying the EGO is top notch !
Mine too! Love the Narcissus mythological references too and the feeling of being in some ancient UFO or something lol!!
Lex "I think it's Music that you feel" Yep, Tool in a nutshell!
Lex is ready to go and Brad has no idea what's happening 🤣👌
Keeping my ego in check leads me to helping others as much as possible. To me, thats life blood.
This song doesn't even need lyrics. I just always loved the tribal sound of this song.
Keep the Tool coming! Subbed this time because you keep coming back.. Tempest is my request but anything Tool kicks ass.. Peace from WA!
Reflection is my favorite Tool song and it's probably somewhere in my top 3 favorite songs of any genre...ever. It's definitely a slow burn but it builds an eerie tension that is offset by the positive message. Something about the combination of sounds and words just...hits me.
Same for me too.
It’s in the top 10 TOOL songs for me. Definitely underrated, but I have so many other favorites that it’s hard to order them :)
Same , number 1 for me of all times
It’s #1 on my current ranking today lol
I love reflection.
"Pine Away" has nothing to do with your Pineal gland. To "Pine Away" is to fall into a state of depression while morning the loss of someone or something.
Towards the end she was feeling it!! That was some serious headbanging right there! You go girl!
Lex is so wonderful. I love how much she feels these beats.
So, when Tool composes their songs, they will write the music first - then Maynard James Keenan will write his lyrics/vocals in reaction.
For these 3 tracks, they were originally all written together as one piece of music at over 20 minutes long... they were later indexed into individual tracks for the Lateralus album's release.
Lex is sooo cool, I love her, your so lucky to have such an awesome lady. She makes my day.
The holy trinity is Maynards metaphysical transition into a more well being. He is describing the road to his new self.
When Lex mentioned LA and spiraling, I had to giggle. Is she an undercover Tool fan just playing us and dropping hints?!
I fucking love how much Lex gets into hard rock songs..makes me keep liking and watching!
I have never seen anyone vibe harder to Disposition than Lex did in this video!
I want to have y'all over for dinner! XD
I seriously love how much you two got into Tool so quickly.
It takes a while to put it all together but you guys are getting it you guys are getting it much love spiral out
Whoohoo more Tool!
This is a great song to meditate to. I've put it on repeat for hours at a time.
Excellent, more Tool. Found you guys through your 'The Pot' reaction. Love watching Lexx's face light up when the metal kicks in, a true metalhead whether she knows or likes it.
This girl is ALWAYS smiling. I love it!
i can't keep my eyes open listening this tracks.. it's just me or what?! i see lex is with me on this, while brad is trying to look at the music.. man.. shut those eyes and listen to this masterpiece
Dude, you need to just set a mood - candles, rose petals, wine and dim the lights and just play this and let Lex be herself.
She’s right. The full experience is leaving yourself and letting the music take you
I believe the deep sound you are trying to describe is the bass.
One thing to remember about Tool, they don’t just sing songs, they tell stories.
I knew Lex would groove on Tool!!!! ❤️ thank you.....
“We should blast it” lex 😂
Only 1:20 in and Lex has asked to turn it up like three times while Brad's just sitting there like, "if I don't acknowledge her, maybe she'll stop asking." Haha
Lex gets so excited when any music starts 😂 I love it
Oh, Brad! You've got a mega fan on your hands! Tool is definitely a enigma wrapped in a conundrum!
38:47 - Man: Trying to keep his composition. Slightly bob's to the beat.
Woman: Allows the music flow through her. Enjoys the experience to the fullest.
:)
"IT'S MUSIC THAT YOU FEEL" I love that, Lex. So true...
Tool is the greatest shaman I've ever had while tripping, you won't regret trying it out. Also Lex, you should check out lucid planet at some point, I really think you would vibe their music like you do Tool's, and they are all about that entheogenic experience.
Yes man I found that band actually while I was on 58 grams of fresh golden teachers,holy shit man they are a great band as well,very tool like but completely different at the same time it's kind of wierd

I've always thought of Tool's music as primal.
Everyone does it different. No wrong way.
@@jamesbolton9752Tools music isn’t just primal it’s human
Most thoughtful reaction channel on youtube. It's not even close. I love how you guys give everything a chance to make its points and really think about what you're hearing. The serious discussion of Jungian thought in particular is consistently interesting.
Definition of pine away
: to become thin and weak because of sadness or loss
"Since his wife left him, he spends his days alone, pining away."
You are both so different but perfect together . I have been with my wife 41 years we lived together before that and I cant imagine life without her ! When i see you together It reminds me of us ! LOL
Awwwww Clint ❤️ congrats to you two! Balance & friendship are a beautiful thing and so underrated modern day
Lex the smile on your face says it all
Tool is more of a journey and experience, most songs flow into each other. A full album listen is like a movie :)
Wings for Marie 1 & 2!
Wings for Marie is so powerful
You also have to add, "Judith" from A Perfect Circle. Maynard's band
Absolutely!!👍👍👍
@@michm2552Right? That one has actually made me cry.

Sober, Stinkfist, Lateralus, Schism, Eulogy, Aenima, Vicarious...🔥🔥🔥
#TOOL
Tool is a total vibe
Stinkfist, AENIMA, The Grudge and maybe you will be ready for Rosetta Stoned (edit: and the track before "Lost Keys" ) 😉👌
What that person said.
Must include Lost Keys with Rosetta Stoned or they will be completely lost.
@@LanceThompsonKssooner of course, I should have said that, thanks for the reminder. 👍
Lex low key a rock woman! Lol. Love it.
Hands down.. Best TOOL Reaction ever! More please :)

Look at Brad feeling music. No lyrics. Good stuff!
It’s just beautiful… like Lex!🔥🤘😎🤘
I grew up on rock, grunge & alt-rock. I’ve “enjoyed” myself at raves, burning man & Laser light Pink Floyd shows.....how in the hell did I miss out on Tool?!
You've just answered your own question
Hey Brad, that's one kick ass lady that you have. Both of y'all are awesome. Y'all quickly became my favorite reaction channel.
Lex is tapping in. Keep em coming.
This dude is so worried about his precious ears he can't enjoy the music!!
The girl wants to jam out dude.. She doesn't want to hang with her dad!!! 😜
Triad got her..
That tribal beat that Danny lays down in that piece is hypnotic!!
I think we've got another recruit here folks..
TOOL ARMY!!!! 🤘
BRAD, you look like the only straight guy at a LSD PARTY. It’s all about the raw animal not the introspective view. It’s truly designed to let go not to figure out.
He looks at her like he is jealous watching someone have a better trip.
Lex needs to take Brad to a Tool concert....it will change your life...
Watching Lex just feel this is amazing.
It's is traditional Rock instrumentation, but the structures break almost every Rock unspoken rule, so to see someone grasp it so fully is pure joy.

So glad you uploaded this.... I missed the stream and saw you had some Tool on it and was sad
Love watching your reactions and analysis of TOOL videos/lyrics.
Brad you are spot on about the ego, and as Lex's insight is a pleasure to hear.
"watch the weather change" feels like a mantra
Man triad perfectly fits as a contrary ending to the calmer and more soothing disposition and reflection. Love playing this "holy trinity" over and over to get out my fustration and anxiety. Its a perfect musical medicine.
Delicate???
That honestly sounds right!!!
Awesome!!!
The thing I get from this is, lex is all about feeling the music, brad is all about analyzing it. Cool dichotomy. Keep jamming to tool. LOL
OMG you did all 3 like its supposed to be heard !! Y'all get BONUS points for this one!!
THANK YOU for giving Tool it's fair shake. Go to a show, it is like heaven's own church!
I usually don’t post my theories by I’m going to go ahead and do it. There’s a reason Tool never released their albums on Spotify/Apple Music/etc. it’s because the albums are supposed to be listened to in full. Also. The lyrics, as amazing as they are, are just 1/4 of the music. If it was me, and I was listening to tool the first time, I would close my eyes and hit play on the first track, then let the entire album play, and experience the album as a whole. Then afterwards, look up lyrics and listen again. Two different experiences. It’s the way I think they (tool) meant for it to be experienced. They are a once in a lifetime band and that is still plAying them down. They are literally a once in a forever experience. No one comes close to the experience they make. There’s a reason there’s a “cult” tool army. We aren’t a cult following. It’s just now everyone else is starting to realize the genius in this band. They will forever be, the greatest band ever. And I’m saying over zeppelin, over Pink Floyd, over whoever. This band is truly perfect, in every sense of the word.
I think that’s definitely part of the reason, but I think it’s a split among the band members and Maynard pointed that out the last time he was on JRE and joe mentioned that and Garth brooks he doesn’t want his stuff broken up. I feel like Carey was the main one in opposition of it because FI he wanted to be one singular song and I’m pretty sure these 3 were originally one song. Plus Danny is the one that talks about reprinting everything on vinyl. That’s just my thought idk if it’s right but to me it makes sense
The point is to not think. Mention anything, doesn't matter, watch weather change and nothing else. Don't miss enjoying the forest because you're focused on the trees.
Whoever made that visualizer for Reflection fucking gets it man. Love y'alls reactions!
Love that you guys reviewed some of their lesser known works! Tool is a whole land unto itself, one that requires the wide range of travel in order to encompass that landscape wholly. Also, ya'll are such a joy to watch!
Some people just FEEL the music differently. Lex welcome to the club
“The vibes of a trip “ pretty much sums up tools vibe
Brad you have one job... Take Lex to a god damn TOOL show Stat!!
I always interpreted the weather as a metaphor for "mood"... an inner weather. Imo the song is saying what you say no matter what, good or bad, big or small, it affects the world around you; the people around you, it affects their weather. Because the "I don't care what people say" is always a lie. You may act like you don't care but it affects you no matter even what even if it's only to make you ignore it. So to me this lyrics say, in a very peotic way, "be mindful on how you affect the world".
Music for the soul
Yeeeeah! Ceremonial, sacred, full on trip!!!! They offer others that let you trip, deep.
It’s okay Brad. I love Tool and have to really be committed before I can go through all three. P.S. She’s ready to go!
the entirety of the tool discography is a radical spiritual adventure... dig in... dive deep... and ride the spiral to the end...
The eclipse is happening now btw, also, a Dijeridoo was playing tonight, at the local beach, Christchurch, New Zealand
Fire and drum circle with fire-dancing. Supposedly a spiritual marker of new beginnings tonight
I got to say I really appreciate your guys's analysis of the lyrics specifically. I watch a lot of reaction videos for tool because tools IMO the greatest band that ever existed and you guys really do a good job!
