If you play Tool, the Tool Army will follow. We love watching vicariously to people hearing Tool for the first time. Your likes and subscribers numbers will jump.
Adam Jones created the band in 1990 (guitarist). Maynard James Keenan is the sole vocalist; Justin Chancellor from the UK is their bassist, has been since 1995; and Danny Carey is their drummer, quite possibly the best percussionist of our time. He can handle four different time-signatures simultaneously.
Here comes the Tool Army! Please do more. You have a good ear 🌀It's very helpful to read about them early. And if that's herb you're smoking, this will be your favorite band. Also, in terms of being a rock virgin, you just went to the pinnacle of bands. It's all downhill from here 😂. I'm 62 and Tool is my favorite band. Lyric reading is a must with Tool. Maynard is a poet. Subbing for Tool!
Tool has so many outstanding tracks, but here are some of my favorites... Vicarious, Schism, The Grudge, Parabol/Parabola, Reflection, Pneuma, and Descending. Those last two are Tool at their pinnacle, just true masterpieces.
Loved your ratm reactions and now you've found my favorite band ever! I can't wait to watch you become part of the tool army! The only advice I can share is to focus on the audio versions, the music videos (although great in their own way) can be distracting from the sound itself
These guys are genius. No other band like tool! Hope you go deep in the rabbit hole. They have no bad song and they have several masterpieces. Great video! 🤘🌀
One doesn'tsimply listen to Tool, one experiences it lol. Love your energy and that you are branching out. Definitely do the live Danny Carey drum version of Pneuma for a whole other experience. And much like Ren, i feel Tool is in their own genre category. Their songs are basically orchestrated by each musician before being conpleted by Maynard with vocals. Hope you have plenty of time for this dive, its a long one!❤
Ooooooh lord help me…. You doin Tool…. My favourite band!!!!!! I nearly c….. 😅 welcome to the Tool Army…. No genre… just an organic experience that pulls you in and doesn’t let go
I subscribed because of your Ren reactions, and I cannot wait to follow you on your Tool journey. I was late to the party myself, I never listened to Rock or Metal until I found Tool thru reaction channels on TH-cam, and I immediately became a fan. Just bought tickets to their concert in Cologne next year in June, and I became excited like a child on Christmas Eve when I finally had them in my bag.
It is honestly like a religious experience. It will put you on a high for awhile. I always say I can feel the music in my soul at their concerts. Have fun and spiral out!
Tool’s music takes you on a journey thru your mind. Lateralus, Descending, Schism, are just a few songs from Tool. Tool doesn’t have a bad song at all. Spiral Out 🌀
What to do next? Fans will recommend that you start from their beginning album and, since they only have 5 albums, and sense each album has a storyline of sorts, I sense that you will love hearing their evolution.
Yes! Tool is def a rabbit hole worth doing. Their music is an experience in mastery of sounds and sensations. Tool live, well, that's just other worldly. The sounds go all around and through you. Love that you're branching out! Luhya!! ❤
Tool very much treats the vocals as a 4th instrument - usually mixed at the same levels as the bass, guitar and drums. They are absolutely fine using anything as the lead melody - drums, bass, vocal, guitar. Not any of this is typical of anything in R&R.
welcome to the musical equivalent of a rabbit hole.once you dive into their amazing catalogue you can't get out.truly a once in a lifetime band can never be imitated or duplicated.maynard Adam Justin and Danny are truly masters of their craft
funny how so many ppl have the same physical reactions- body movements, facial expressions etc... These videos really speak to the power music to connect with anyone willing to experience with an open mind.
RATM and Tool are closely linked. Tom Morello and Adam Jones are old high school buddies. Both guitarists and both bands are totally unique from anything that came out of the rock scene during 90s or grudge Era. Tool is still making new music in their typical Tool time. Anyway hope you Spilral Out down the Tool rabbit hole
Welcome to The Tool Army good sir, glad to have you. This is not a journey that will disappoint you. Pneuma drum cam, descending, Lateralus, 7empest, invincible right in two... the list is too long to mention everything you need to hear. Which songs are the best is really up to personal taste but despite what you like you can't listen to this music without admitting these guys are on a whole different level than most bands. One of your other comments said you started at the pinnacle and it's all down hill from here... unfortunately they were right. Hard to move upwards from Tool. There are very few bands that are capable of creating the type of masterpieces these guys create. I'm subscribing right now and clicking the thumbs up, I can't wait for more tool reactions. Oh yeah, and by the way, I also saw in one of your comments someone mentioned focusing on the audio versions... just saying in my opinion that's a good suggestion.
"I still don't know what he's talking about though" Don't worry about it, you could probably find forum archives of people trying to make sense of Tool lyrics to last you an eternity
Ok girl you know I subbed for Ren, then you got me with that chinchilla, loved you for branching out to RATM, but now with tool? Ok that’s it! You’re officially my favorite now! 😍😍😍
It brought me joy to watch you find the GOATS. Prepare for the #TOOLARMY to descend upon your channel. I am Legion and we are manyyy. You should do Eulogy or ÆNIMA next. Imho. Or maybe Lateralus. You really can't go wrong with Tool. 😈 🎭 🌬🌀🤘🌀💨
Lol! You entered the cheat code and jumped all the levels right to TOOL and Rage! Both bands are 4-piece with only guitar, bass, drums, and vocals. TOOL will occasionally incorporate synths and electric drum pads, and both bands use effect pedals to make the sounds you'll hear. TOOL falls into the prog-rock/prog-metal category, while Rage is like if Led Zeppelin and Public Enemy had a baby that grew up in the late 80s/early 90s hardcore punk scene. You're going to enjoy these rabbit holes!
this is metal for you, metal and the rock has the best lyricism... emotional, motivation, depression, politics, social problems and a lot of analogies, methaphors, poetry also.. or descriptive visuals, like telling a tale... depending on the metal genre.
A bajillion sub generes and styles of rock and Metal. Tool is considered Alternative progressive psychedelic metal. if you like them, you might like another band called Porcupine tree and their song Anesthetize.
Check out the song Bottom! Kind of obscure and older, but great nonetheless and I think you will like it. There’s 30 other songs easily that someone would suggest to hear before this one The last TOOL song you heard will always be your new favorite. These age with wine. This band will change how you listen to music forever. On the 10th listen songs sound even better than the first listen. You will beckon the Tool army as well. spiral out. 🌀
As a life long metal fan I love HOW you enjoy the song. You are appreciating the sections of the songs and the parts of the songs which we love as well! You should definitely give reptile by periphery a listen! I think it will blow your mind
Another super underrated band ive recently discovered is Ra. I started with the From One album and its a top 5 band for me. The Papa Roach Infest album would be an awesome listen too. Its got a lot of elements in it that are incredibly relative in today's world. I love music and sharing is caring. Spiral out, keep going 🤟🤟🤟🤟
TOOL ARMY 🪖 following them since 1992..... Spiral out ❤❤ Check what the golden spiral and the Fibonacci sequence(Lateralis) is about it has a lot to do with this bands music. This is more of an experience than just music I can tell you what is being used for the guitar sounds your hearing but you wont believe it!!! Danny Cary (the octopus) is a beast on the drums and Maynard is a lyrical genius and Adam is also the visual effects and musical art and Justin Chancellor was an awesome replacement to complete the conception for the band . They are on tour now ❤❤ Sober and H
You mentioned RATM...The lead guitarists from both of these bands went to high school together and were in a band they called "Electric Sheep".I think Adam Jones of Tool played bass,but could be wrong there.Sonically similar and hugely influential artists.
5:29 You were just asking about the meaning of this song a little bit ago in this reaction. The hypocrisy part is pretty much it. Sorry I’m late to the Tool reaction party! Pot that calls the kettle black.
There's no shame in googling a word or 5 with Tool. Seriously...who knew the definition of "cozened" before they heard this song and googled it?! You'll hear a lot of sayings and phrases about hypocrites in this song, the line with tossing stones= those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, pissing on a black kettle= the pot calling the kettle black. Also, the lines about cozened indigo and lemon juice in your eye are about faking tears to manipulate. Kangaroo/ kangaroo court= A phrase used in Australia when someone's guilt is judged by the public without a trial. Idk if this is 100% true but I heard this song was written because someone the band is friends with got arrested for possession of a miniscule amount of weed and the judge that found him guilty was arrested shortly after that for some shady shit, like drunk driving and he had a bunch of weed and coke or something. Hope that helps clarify a few things! Always find a lyric video if at all possible. If there isn't one, just enjoy the experience 😃
Great brake down of this song and thank you for letting me known I'm not the only one that googled the word cozened! Maynard does know how to use his vocabulary that's for sure!
That's not simply production but master musicians/vocalist, recording live sound. No auto tune or layering... just music Rock n Roll 101... Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan, Allman Brothers... Just for starters. Great reaction! BTW... the song is essentially about hypocrisy.
Tool is in the Progressive Metal genre, if you like tool's instrumentals you should check out Rush, they are a progressive rock band from Canada with 3 dudes that sound like 5 or 6.
If you play Tool, the Tool Army will follow. We love watching vicariously to people hearing Tool for the first time. Your likes and subscribers numbers will jump.
i see what you did there
Spot on w/yr comment my fellow soldier lol❤
Truth.
Adam Jones created the band in 1990 (guitarist).
Maynard James Keenan is the sole vocalist; Justin Chancellor from the UK is their bassist, has been since 1995; and Danny Carey is their drummer, quite possibly the best percussionist of our time. He can handle four different time-signatures simultaneously.

Facts!!! ❤
Weed, or...maybe a headful of psychedelics.
Drummer Danny Carey is one of the best drummers on the planet. You can see a video with his drum-cam in the live version of the song Pneuma.
He’s amazing!
One of? Nah , the best!
Since we lost Neil Peart, he is now every drummers favorite drummer
A Must. 💯🔥
Tool has so many outstanding tracks, but here are some of my favorites... Vicarious, Schism, The Grudge, Parabol/Parabola, Reflection, Pneuma, and Descending. Those last two are Tool at their pinnacle, just true masterpieces.

30 years later these magicians still have a firm hold on my life!!!
The only thing modifying those instruments are the hands that are playing them. Tool is a master of their craft

You will feel even more giddy after your live Tool experience 😁 I just had my first Tool experience Oct 20th and I'm still in awe
@@davidbrown5714 can’t wait!!!
It is honestly like a religious experience. It will put you on a high for awhile. I always say I can feel the music in my soul at their concerts. Have fun and spiral out!
Tool live just completely envelopes you! ❤
I would love to see you react to Tool’s live performance of “Sober”. It’s from late 90’s. Lead singer is a performer and amazing vocalist.
Tool’s music takes you on a journey thru your mind. Lateralus, Descending, Schism, are just a few songs from Tool. Tool doesn’t have a bad song at all. Spiral Out 🌀
Girl you did Tool!!!! Fuck YEAH!!!!!!! ✊✊ so here for it!!!! ❤❤❤
To be fair, Tool is its own genre. 30+ year listener, and they are my favorite band, no one compares. #Toolforever
What to do next? Fans will recommend that you start from their beginning album and, since they only have 5 albums, and sense each album has a storyline of sorts, I sense that you will love hearing their evolution.
... descending ...thr grudge ...pneuma ...aenima ...fear inoculum Wellcome to the Tool-Army. Enjoy the trip. Spiralout ... peace
This song is about the hypocrisy of the self righteous. Loved your reaction. Subscribed.♥️
Yes! Tool is def a rabbit hole worth doing. Their music is an experience in mastery of sounds and sensations. Tool live, well, that's just other worldly. The sounds go all around and through you. Love that you're branching out! Luhya!! ❤
Ooooooo we on Tool now! Ok ok ok, lemme grab some popcorn. Now we ready

The guitarist for Tool and the guitarist RATM were friends and hung out before they were famous.

Welcome to the TOOL Army!!
Great reaction, loved your energy!
Hope to see a lot more from you on your journey. ❤ Love from the UK
Tool is definitely a rabbit hole you will want to go down. More Tool more subscribers Tool Army supports.
Tool very much treats the vocals as a 4th instrument - usually mixed at the same levels as the bass, guitar and drums. They are absolutely fine using anything as the lead melody - drums, bass, vocal, guitar. Not any of this is typical of anything in R&R.
welcome to the musical equivalent of a rabbit hole.once you dive into their amazing catalogue you can't get out.truly a once in a lifetime band can never be imitated or duplicated.maynard Adam Justin and Danny are truly masters of their craft
funny how so many ppl have the same physical reactions- body movements, facial expressions etc...
These videos really speak to the power music to connect with anyone willing to experience with an open mind.
Dude you’d be amazed on how dead accurate they are live. Great video btw!
Enjoyed this reaction so much! 🔥🔥 Looking for more Tool
RATM and Tool are closely linked. Tom Morello and Adam Jones are old high school buddies.

Anyway hope you Spilral Out down the Tool rabbit hole
TOOL is it's own genre. Welcome to the TOOL army!
Tool members were friends with Rage back in the day, they even collaborated on a song Know Your Enemy. Check it out!
Wizards of sonics and lyrics!!! Best journey you'll ever take!
“I still don’t know what he’s talking about tho” 😂 I am right there with you!
Maynard on vocals, Adam Jones on guitar, Justin Chancellor on bass, Danny Carey on drums🌀
TOOL is its own genre
Absolutely
Amazing musicians in this phenomenal band! They have tons of excellent songs. Definitely check out some from the 90’s!
Subbed because of Ren videos but, you are freakin killing it. Gotta go back and watch all your content.

All you had to say was Tool. I'm here for it!
#Vicarious off the same (4th, 2006) album is unmatched.
Their 5th album came out 13 years later, and they're working on their 6th album now.
"I still don't know what he's talking about though"
Don't worry about it, you could probably find forum archives of people trying to make sense of Tool lyrics to last you an eternity
Here for Tool! Great reaction. ❤
I love watching reactions to the pot!
Every song of every album but specifically AENIMA, AENIMA, AENIMA!!!! Flush it all away please! Its time for it to all go down!

Your Anger is a Gift. - Zack De la Rocha
There are different sub genres in rock just like hip hop. But tool is in a category all on its own. Tool timing is really unique
Tool is legendary.
Ok girl you know I subbed for Ren, then you got me with that chinchilla, loved you for branching out to RATM, but now with tool? Ok that’s it! You’re officially my favorite now! 😍😍😍
Welcome to the rollercoaster ride, enjoy
"Rock and roll"... Funny every time
Tool is very cathartic
This isn't rock and roll. This is Tool.
After watching her reactions to the rest of the Tool songs, I think she's ready for Judith, Wings for Marie, and 10000 Days...
There's just so much to list ill let all these guys do that and I will just say............. Welcome to the TOOL Army :)

Vocals Maynard James Keenan. Guitar Adam Jones. Bass Justin Chancellor. Drums.....the GOD Danny Carey
It's psychedelic/progressive metal.... Maynard James Keenan is the lead singer...Daney Carey is the drummer and Adam Jones is the lead guitarists
