This version works a lot better than the album version in my opinion. Its more raw, but also more open sounding, the instruments breathe more and the arrangement is more straightforward, short and sweet. Less is more
Don't agree in the slightest. No offense but you probably think that the Free Bird live versions are better than Studio too... But to each their own of course.
I agree completely. The album version is too long and overworked. If they just polished this version into a nice, short and sweet 5 minute banger that would have been heaven
Yes and no. This got me excited to hear the final version. I was hoping this might have been like a solo party in the middle of at the end. But I love both versions. I feel like this could be released separately.
Unfortunately, it's not. We might want to think it is, but the truth is the overwhelming majority of people on this earth never heard this, and if they did, many, many would not like it. It's about what floats your fucking boat. This does for us. If we're brutally honest - this doesn't float everyone's boat. Just the truth.
You can already tell this song is going to have a powerful message behind it even without Maynard on the track. Even the name descending gives hints to what this song could be about, perhaps the regression of our society?
The age of mehit 12,800 years ago. The end of their civilization, like a premonition to the end of ours. It's no coincidence they had a pyramid on the backdrop of when they first debuted the song live in the summer of 2019.
The fact that if that leaked track list for the next album is for real (which i doubt) means that this song is about 14 minutes long in total and that makes me disproportionately excited also, side note, for some reason hearing that tabla sample thing Danny uses in Right In Two in this song as well makes me reeeaaalll happy, and that echo-y clap sound he uses just before that sounds real cool too.
joe namredla I saw it live last night and it was like a very long drum solo because it was very fucky so I'm not to impressed but there still great as is and will always be my favorite
joe namredla they said all there songs are going to be longer than normal. that's one reason why the track isn't out yet. and explains why this might be there last one sadly.
Celeste Dubay I love how long g and mellow dramatic the song is, because when it kicks in to overdrive its amazing! you just need to zone out. Danny is a beast at drums. I find him and Justin as a perfect match. Adam is the one one out that creates a different mood set I find
my view is basically we are miraculously born into this universe (which already perfectly exists), and already pre-programmed to deny this absolute beauty that we are...in search of the path
Of course I agree with you there, but there is no indication at all that it'll be released before the end of the year. Tool fans keeping up with the news surrounding the band are even starting to consider the possibily that it might never see the light of day.
The fact that this is a trailer track and not the actual song is amazing to me. This is a reduction, which means whatever the fuck this actually is on the album will blow our fucking minds.
Amen brother! Shrooms and TOOL in the fall time in the northwest is a twice a year mandatory deal for me! Nothing like walking through the forest with headphones on frying
Don't count on it.this is probably there last album.wich sucks.but they take over a decade to perfect there music.if they do release one they will be in there 70s
my brother and I saw them in Boise this last Sunday, it was my first time seeing them. when the giant black pyramid came on the screen and this song started I was completely blown away. been trying to find out what the song was and I finally did thanks to this! sent it to my brother, the video is fantastic
Just saw them play this in Vancouver last night. They played a longer version that was amazing, everyone went crazy. It transitions into something much heavier. It sounded great! Super stoked for new Tool now.
True fact! Some of the guys who watched this video didnt live to witness the new album! Rip for all thes guys and celebrate the chance to be alive and breathing
I got it from ToolArchive back in 2016. They did finish the song it is called, Descending and on the album Fear Inoculum. We didn't finish the video because this is the first time they played the song live before the album was released.
i reckon aenima is the no.1 album humanity has produced so far. i wasnt a huge fan of any other tool album, just some random songs here and there, but this does sound like this song and maybe album will be good.
what i took from this is the event in which a form of cognizant being is birthed through a rare form of nova, maybe the death of a quark star, (a mega-nova?) so violent that it can create an exotic, yet short form of life. if so, this video may have shown events lasting only a few seconds. or was in real time to be a few minutes. a godlike form of consciousness
All these people found this years ago and I literally just see this 2 months AFTER the albums drops AFTER I've already heard the full song. Fuck my life where have I been?
Exactly! They mentioned before a lot of their live jams become evolved, further lengthened and finally made into epic songs! Same thing goes for the 2 min improv jam called "Burnt Amber" that Tool will likely use also for the new album
ya, none of the other videos with this song have gotten taken down. did you make this or do you know who did? the fact it got taken done leads me to believe it could actually be Tool's video or more specifically Adam Jones.
as if all information about the universe ,yourself, and any connection of the mind about the mind and body interaction was understood by hearing from.... a kaleidoscope as a wealth of information coming at you... by audio and something else. amazing music....a slow process of a kaleidoscope when i closes my eyes and hear and see the universal things no one else sees.
I like the sound better than on the studio version - it's way juicier.

Their music always brings me back to that familiar place. Like standing at the edge of something so beautiful, unknown, and infinitely vast.
Chris Brown I feel you 690%
primitive soul within.......we are all inside one conciousness
It's partly due to the magick Danny Carey does...
Damn dude, you say the words of my heart.
but you can never figure out what the fuck it is?
When adam comes in at the end with that rift.omg greatest sound i ever heard.i feel its going to raise my body up unto the unknown with the tool gods
The only thing TOOL is raising is those concert ticket prices.
Who honestly knew that this would become one of their most memorable from the new album inoculum
The edit sounds better than the damn release
If the Universe had a theme song, this might as well be it.
Every now and then I return to this version for the guitar tone and the solo lick. 👁️🌀
I keep coming back to this demo. Love it. Inspiring!!
i may be accounting for 5-10% of these 29,000 views
you can't unless you have 29.000 devices...
Which would be 29,000 more devices than you have senses of humour!
on the other hand I have somewhat humorous senses
5-10% of 29,000 isn't 29,000
Lol
so every additional year they worked on this they added a minute? man...
This is continuously the greatest quality of descending you can find right now. Thank you for this.
The ending parts is probably one of Tool's very very best, CAN'T WAIT FOR IT!
The goosebumps are real.
+Kalpak Kulkarni I can not wait for this new album!

...More like the entire superstructure of civilization - if anything!
What do you think of the track now with the lyrics?
The age of mehit 12,800 years ago. The end of their civilization, like a premonition to the end of ours. It's no coincidence they had a pyramid on the backdrop of when they first debuted the song live in the summer of 2019.
good eye/ ear :)
Glad to see TOOL teasing their Ghost in The Shell 4 footage.
I love when TOOL sets the drums in the front of the mix
The fact that if that leaked track list for the next album is for real (which i doubt) means that this song is about 14 minutes long in total and that makes me disproportionately excited
also, side note, for some reason hearing that tabla sample thing Danny uses in Right In Two in this song as well makes me reeeaaalll happy, and that echo-y clap sound he uses just before that sounds real cool too.
its almost like a flowing continuation of the end of 10000 days

interwoven222 we actually come out of this universe you need to listen to Terence McKenna
+Jesse Capps I have read Terence McKenna and I love it!
Hell yeah I'm glad! It's amazing stuff to ponder.
This is catchy as hell. Can't stop listening to it!
That's amazing, I'm gonna have to take some shrooms and watch this on my tv
Mindblowing! .....huge understatement
+Brian Griffin Yes! You just can't describe in words how TooL makes you feel
Jayson Stark never could...never will be
Jayson Stark DMT is the answer
Its soon ....
Danny is innovating his sound once again!! these drum synth sounds are sooo good!
This comment is late on the video, but I’d just like to say that the CGI itself is breathtakingly beautiful.
No comment is to late! thank you
+Apache UDP no comment is ever to late, thank you for the support
Goosebumps each time I watch this. Let's all hope 2017 will be the year a new Tool album drops.
+no man 01 21 let's hope before the end of the year
Of course I agree with you there, but there is no indication at all that it'll be released before the end of the year.
Tool fans keeping up with the news surrounding the band are even starting to consider the possibily that it might never see the light of day.
+no man 01 21 right! And they say Maynard is recording vocals Now, which is the last step in recording so the rumor is...
I gues I'll try to stay optimistic then.
Apparently this song is 12 minutes long and it is the shortest song on the album.
powerful visual
Perfect visual representation of the effects of Psilocybin and other mind bending ×÷×TRIP-T amines×÷×
The fact that this is a trailer track and not the actual song is amazing to me. This is a reduction, which means whatever the fuck this actually is on the album will blow our fucking minds.
I dont know guys I like this built up more than the version on the concerts
Same here, even though being there to hear it live was amazing. I'm hoping the album version is similar to this.
SpaceCowboy98 i thought i was alone on this!! This version sounds 100x better than the newer live ones
Maxy boy you’re not alone dude, it’s so much cooler
from the cosmos we emerge, to the cosmos, we return
CyberdelicXP Pure as we begin,
Move by will alone,

Welp! Time to take some mushrooms, play this on loop, and meditate for a couple of hours.

Jayson Stark no I gotta check that out!
Amen brother! Shrooms and TOOL in the fall time in the northwest is a twice a year mandatory deal for me! Nothing like walking through the forest with headphones on frying
Tool strikes back!
#forevertoollove
You don't listen to tool, you experience it.
The digital drums and bass effects are fuucking amazing.
This piece is so moving. I know what the kids mean when they say "I can't even".
if this is what we're waiting for, then yes, I can wait
Tool makes everything better
Absolutely incendiary!!!!! LOVE IT WITH ALL MY LIGHT!!!!!
Can somebody please explain to me how the fuck shit like this isn't shown everywhere?
+amanuelamanuel Exactally! The world should see and experience this!
because society.
Exactly. I find it difficult to meet anyone in real life that likes Tool, or even know who they are. It's very odd.
Rodney Harpe Congrats. I hope I can find a girl who appreciates prog rock/ prog metal
brazwen It's surprisingly a hard task lmao. Most of the ones I meet listen to EDM / Rap...
I really hope tool releases a live album like Salival and include descending in this form. Pushit from salival was so much better than from aenima
I second this.
Don't count on it.this is probably there last album.wich sucks.but they take over a decade to perfect there music.if they do release one they will be in there 70s
I wonder if the indistinguishable humming and mumbling could be lyrics, but hes keeping them secret....
I'd have to say I honestly don't care. This music is so awesome even by itself, if it wound up being mostly an instrumental, I'd be OK with that.
Beautiful
tears... of joy. beautiful.. astral.. mind melting joy
my brother and I saw them in Boise this last Sunday, it was my first time seeing them. when the giant black pyramid came on the screen and this song started I was completely blown away. been trying to find out what the song was and I finally did thanks to this! sent it to my brother, the video is fantastic
Thanks bro...im in the Ogden Utah area and wished i could have made it there. thanks for the share
brings me to tears every time
Just saw them play this in Vancouver last night. They played a longer version that was amazing, everyone went crazy. It transitions into something much heavier. It sounded great! Super stoked for new Tool now.
Yep... it's definitely Tool. Oh god I can't wait to give them my money for the new CD!
New Tool album comes out: "shut up and take my money."
+Nathan Brownsberger Spring 2018 new Tool album? Thoughts? Maynard talks on Joe Rogan best time to release albums is Spring and fall.
I could watch this all day...
Can’t believe it’s finally here. Fuck the last two years after this was released have been crazy
That was God Creating the big bang.....
Im still waiting patiently for the new Album. This video is the best gift Tool gave us!!! Just perfect!
True fact! Some of the guys who watched this video didnt live to witness the new album! Rip for all thes guys and celebrate the chance to be alive and breathing
How’d you get this and why didn’t they finish it
I got it from ToolArchive back in 2016. They did finish the song it is called, Descending and on the album Fear Inoculum. We didn't finish the video because this is the first time they played the song live before the album was released.
I think it was they gave us a test run and I like this Verizon better specifically Adams lil jAm at the end perfect
this song feels like it was inspired by their own cover of no quarter. I don't know why, its just how it makes me "feel"
Okay...this is giving me an insane amount of goosebumps. Ah!
Pastel Princess gives me goose bumps every time
Jesus Christ the pattern Danny is playing is insane.
Well, time to prepare ours mind to this new beautiful shit
Make it like the Tulsa 2016 version. Longer, tougher and angrier! Very nice work though. Loved it!
2:13 - 3:43 "Shine on forever. Shine on benevolent sun. Shine on upon the severed. Shine until the two become one."
That sounds like lyrics from jambi
Nathan Brownsberger it is 👌 i just felt like they fit the that part of the video well.
Huge FAN of TOOL and the video reminds me of ghost in the shell.... Dang this is a straight banger.
2:33 fucking awesome....can't wait for this
+Bob Capaldi amazing guitar and drum sequence!
+Bob Capaldi amazing guitar and drum sequence!
U should hear the new version of the riff
Aunque ya salio la versión de estudio esta versión no pierde su encanto arriba TOOL por siempre
Just thinkin what Maynard could do vocally to this track is mind blowing. This is the only sign or hope of a new album lol
Totally! Can't wait! Hopefully it comes out at least in 2018 (probably fall)
love the visuals.. Maynard's humming and the music speaks for itself ... :)
i reckon aenima is the no.1 album humanity has produced so far. i wasnt a huge fan of any other tool album, just some random songs here and there, but this does sound like this song and maybe album will be good.
May 6 2019, at Jacksonville FL they finally played the entire song, and it's fucking beautiful.
I like this version better, except that it should be longer
Sompn Brurl This is just a short version of it, the studio version should be awesome.
Beautifully insane.....can't wait for the new album
Best version of this jam

Awesome.
All these people found this years ago and I literally just see this 2 months AFTER the albums drops AFTER I've already heard the full song. Fuck my life where have I been?
Yeah i keep going back to this version though.. i love the album version but this just has more edge and feeling i think.
I came 2 minutes in
what took you so long?
Lmao
perfect quality!!! thanx for the upload!
I forgot what I was gonna say
Underrated comment
Best band on the planet.
+Trent Fly and thats the truth !
Can't wait to hear the full song on the new album
It's a teaser, not a song. Since opiate, has any tool fan heard of them writing a 3:44 song? Uh, no! Lol.
+Cameron Meister spring 2018 new album??
Cameron Meister I'm pretty sure it is just a preview of the full song. Keep that in mind.

Super Otter 2 it’s here it’s here it’s here. I can’t stop smiling.
I felt like this could have stood on its own ... no lyrics needed. But then Maynard went and did his magic on it, and it's awesome!
Just a word EPIC
Thanks for puttin this video back up!
your welcome!

Just amazing as always.
2:33 is amazing. I love how they speed up a little in that moment.
fuckin gorgeous... just give me the new album already
Amazing video thank you for uploading AWSOME song

It's me again, back for my daily view
i'd give it a billion thumbs up if i could
