i fcukin knew it! ive been playing it like this for 25 yrs. friends, teachers, & other players have told me "youre crazy, thats not right" even though it sounded exactly like the record. haha! redemption!
I just want to highlight how wild it is to have a TH-camr go through all this effort to teach a small yet very important detail of a song that is over 20 years old. All for the sake of teaching a technique that very few people even use. Awesome work!
And Danny had zero intention of starting a band with them. He was already a working professional musician he already in like 5 bands and he was a set musician on a bunch of TV shows and only agreed to jam with them because they were neighbors and he felt sorry for them cuz they couldn't find a drummer so agreed to jam with them.
No musician will ever be perfect.. We are all always learning striving for perfection but will never achieve it. But yeah they are all Pretty damn close to perfect !!!!
Adam and Maynard were not even serious about music until they got together and went after it, with Maynard's work ethic, intelligence, and ambition leading the way. Maynard and Adam were in hollywood for the film industry, doing set design or props, etc. Adam was the art director for the Jurassic Park film, and made all of the claymation videos and directs the visual portion of Tool, as music is only part of what Tool is. These guys coming together to create and inspire on this level is miraculous, and an unlikely creation. Grattitude!
So, being a nonmusician but a Tool fan for a couple decades, videos like this makes the music more magical for me. It is sort of the opposite of seeing how a magician does his tricks. There you see it is a simple trick to fool you. But this is more like falling down that rabbit hole. Finding more and more wonders as you go.
My wife is not pumped that I taught our almost 2 year old that you are Uncle Ben. He's running around repeating "Uncle Ben! Uncle Ben!" and it's great. Thanks for the video. Cheers dude!
Reminds me that "Cleopatra mission" in Asterix -- about that temple building, how they are saying something like: "There will be no workers, no stones. No stones -- no temple. No temple.... No temple." :-D
That was so very well explained and masterful. The “if you’re getting this sound this is what you’re doing wrong” parts are extremely helpful as well. Great video.
Adam Jones doesn’t get nearly enough respect. The Alex Liefson of metal, if you will, in that he is an incredible musician sandwiched in a group of other musicians who many consider the best of their kind
not only adam.. i certainly didn't see many bands with 4 musicians this great.. maynards vocals are still awesome despite his age and if you listen older stuff.. just wow.. adam and justins guitar and bass synergize like in hardly any other band.. i mean it's rare to find bass features like with tool or red hot chili peppers anyways where the bass is such a huge part of the songs and not something more subtle in the background and also danny's drumms are simply incredible.. i guess it's somewhat natural because it needs a talented drummer to keep up with the endless signature changes and odd signatures used in most tool songs.. but this is what makes their music so great for me and so unique.. i mean just trying to count out songs like schism in my head is really hard.. so many odd time signatures.. so many signature changes..
Hey Uncle Ben. I’ve been playing guitar for around 13 years and I recently came to the (painful) realisation that I’ve been far too obsessed with acquiring extremely nice guitars and not obsessed enough with practising. I came across your channel (in particular the ‘this is why you suck at guitar’ series), and I’m pleased to say that with these clear, concise, well-executed (and hilarious) videos at my side, I am starting to change that and work toward being the best guitarist I can be. Take sweep picking for example: in around 10 days of dedicated half-hour practice sessions I’ve gone from being completely unable to do it to sweeping cleanly at a modest 100BPM. My family now accept me once again, I no longer have to sleep outside and I feel that for the first time since I started playing I can hear the improvement on a daily basis. Thanks Uncle Ben!
Right on. I think the drag-pull-through-tech he does in Jambi is also applied to Invincible around the 7:40 mark. He's so percussive. I found new spots for blisters in August. Haha. Thanks for the lesson. This makes sense.
That's so brilliant that you figured this out from really looking at the velocity of the first chord. I've always felt like that chord sounded like it had the wind knocked out of it but I've never really thought of it that way as I'm a bass player.
“That tingling feeling you’re feeling, that’s your third eye opening”. Funniest line on TH-cam, I died. Thank you for so eloquently demonstrating that impressive tie bit. Haha don’t know if that made it easier to play now, or harder
Hemiola - “not actually a rare blood disease” - bwahaha so funny Uncle Ben! This is actually a really cool lesson and that was my favorite part of the lesson!
Pass the God damn butter is the rhythmic solfege for a 4:3 polyrhythm. I'm not saying you're wrong about the fact, just that that's the wrong polyrhythm. The common one for a 2:3 is "nice cup of tea"
@@gamerx07gaming28 I apologize in advance if I'm misunderstanding your reply, but in this vid, th-cam.com/video/dj-g9a5Vzk0/w-d-xo.html Justin says the song uses the same pass the godamn butter phrase for the timing.
@@lewdlewyd6251 for his part...not for adams part...they all play different parts because they’re aliens Just try to say “pass the goddamn butter” while Ben plays that part, doesn’t work. Kind of a waste of a disagreement unfortunately...
I was lucky enough to figure this out one day when I was jamming along with the album. I went to put the bong down while still playing with the left hand and realized the magic.
Possible OT maybe he wasn’t. Standing up, sitting down, either way. Standing seems more probable though. You partake between songs, precious moments that they are, bong in right hand, lighter in left, song is coming. Set down or toss lighter, commence playing song with left hand on frets, but wait, pick hand is busy! Decision time. Where are your priorities? EVERYBODY knows the value of that high density, give it the gusto, make-the-ember-go-dark, toke from beyond. But fuck it. Right hand, take your time, cause left hand has got that part. Oh, the 2 string pick now, bong set down, now the groove can settle in. Seems that I figured out the magic while setting down the bong with my right hand and hammering-on with my left. Magic indeed.
Been listening to these album for about 15 years and finally saw someone nailing this riff in such an awesome and perfect way, man you are so cool thanks 🤘🏻😎
Great lesson, Uncle Ben. The hemiola demo was, indeed, an eye opener. Zappa was a big fan of hemiola, but this riff is so rhythmic that it’s easier for me to hear (and feel) it.
Cool lesson dude.i love that song.listen to that in the car at top volume.the way it just keeps building until chaos at the end.briliant.youre so right never really looked that close at the footage.thanks for the tips man.keep it up
He uses that palm-muting technique on other tracks as well, notably on 'Pushit' and 'The Patient.' It's repeated in increasing pressure and sounds almost like an echoed fade-out. Thanks for what you do and all the helpful tips!
That 96 show at the Glasshouse in Pamona is my all time favorite live show of theirs. If you watch that on a 70 inch tv with a sound system you will leave a changed man or woman. Incredible live show!
I remember back when this album came out and my friend was trying to figure out that opening riff and the verse riff, and I always thought it sounded off, I couldn't figure out what it was.. a couple years later I figured out the "finger/hand slap" technique you were talking about in the intro, but I couldn't ever figure out what notes were being picked, the open d and g.. so thanks for that man.. I can finally fill that hole from my younger years. :D
BRILLIANT!! As soon as I have expendable income again, you will be my first patreon subscription. Your style of teaching is descriptive and fast, which matches perfectly with my level of skill, and my ADD. Thank you!!
Love that you actually pay attention to how the artist plays these riffs live, that’s my method of learning as well, for example I’ve learned a bunch of Primus songs on my bass simply by going to Primus shows and watching to see what his hands are doin
Thanks so much for the free lesson! On the end part when you are showing the polyrhythms, am I the only one that just kept hearing "Carol of the Bells"?? Must be Christmas time
Thanks for the lesson and info!!! I seen them recently, and I tried my best to watch Adam more than I usually do. Its so hard to pull away from Danny, Justin rocking out back and forth, and of course what the hell is going on with Maynard. I was a huge fan of Fear Inoculum when it released, but after seeing so much of it live, I must say it is amazing. The mix on the most recent show was probably the best I have heard out of all the Tool shows I have seen as well. I know seating can play a role in how well the mix sounds, but I must have just been in a sweet spot.
Dude the second I heard the opening riff I was like yeah this is already the most accurate rendition of this song I’ve ever heard haha. Uncle Ben showing us the real ways yet again. Time to turn on the gain and get the hammer on power chords going
thank u so much this makes so much more sense I could never wrap my head around picking out that starting riff but picked up on that hammer slap pretty quick. Thanks uncle Ben!
Wow, learned something new today. Thought it was the other way around, but sound never matched. The sound here along with the video proved it all. Thx again for the great video and lesson.
Sweet. I've been playing this right since I sat down with the CD and my guitar almost 20 years ago. Then again, that's how I learned how to play guitar in the first place. Oh, and good vid man. I'll be watching more.
whoa! I thought I couldn't be more blown away than when you did the video on the Jambi pull through technique. ya learn something new everyday...thx Ben
Very well researched- UB...interesting the first time I heard Ain't Talkin Bout Love from Van Halen I had to learn it so I taught myself how to play it by wearing out that LP then in The summer 1981 I got to see them the first time and I saw Eddie was playing a ton more economically out of the Am chord at the nut compared to at the 5th fret...man I felt stupid. I still play it both ways though.
I really appreciate someone playing/showing how songs are actually played correctly, I'm quite the stickler myself and do a lot of research of live videos of players, great job man, oh ya and nice Les Paul!
I was just trying to play this yesterday from memory of poorly written tabs i used waaay back in '99, never got the sound right. Now i see why! thank you for the lesson!
Really neat Ben, thanks for the insights, verse blew my mind. I always knew the bass was using lots of hammers but never even thought about the guitar.
I noticed he does this towards the end of Fear Inoculum as well. I recently covered it and noticed that picking the open notes sounded wrong until I figured this out! Great job as always Uncle Ben!
Thanks for your channel, my favorite guitar tutorials on youtube! All the best to you Ben, I aspire to be a shredder like you, always looking for artist's unique technique.
Thanks for watching! What’s the next Adam Jones Tool technique you want to learn?!
Loving this style of video man, I really liked the one with Ghost. You should do one with some Gojira!
How on Earth he manipulates feedback so well. Especially when sliding
Maybe something about how he uses the delay effect? It's a simple effect but very few can use it create such a mesmerizing effect.
His faux e bow
He uses 3 dd3s
"Here we have Maynard doing... Stuff"
Just described every tool concert ever lol.
😂😂
Maynard is a fuckin gremlin on stage Lmao
i fcukin knew it! ive been playing it like this for 25 yrs. friends, teachers, & other players have told me "youre crazy, thats not right" even though it sounded exactly like the record. haha!

I found a tab years ago that had it exactly like this. There is no argument here. This is the proper way
Trust ur intuition

It is truly unbelievable that all of the members of Tool got together being all perfectly perfect musicians.
And Danny had zero intention of starting a band with them. He was already a working professional musician he already in like 5 bands and he was a set musician on a bunch of TV shows and only agreed to jam with them because they were neighbors and he felt sorry for them cuz they couldn't find a drummer so agreed to jam with them.
Greatest musical miracle since Rush!
No musician will ever be perfect..
We are all always learning striving for perfection but will never achieve it. But yeah they are all Pretty damn close to perfect !!!!
I've always thought that way about Pink Floyd, atleast in their 70's.
Adam and Maynard were not even serious about music until they got together and went after it, with Maynard's work ethic, intelligence, and ambition leading the way. Maynard and Adam were in hollywood for the film industry, doing set design or props, etc. Adam was the art director for the Jurassic Park film, and made all of the claymation videos and directs the visual portion of Tool, as music is only part of what Tool is. These guys coming together to create and inspire on this level is miraculous, and an unlikely creation. Grattitude!

"if it's not Crimsafe, it's not Crimsafe".
FINALLY! The Uncle never disappoints. Especially when he beats my stepdad with a rake. I hate that guy.
Also, I'm gonna be that guy: the song is actually titled "Ænema", the album is titled "Ænima". 'Cause Tool.
Lmao
We live in an alternate reality where instead of being shot and inspiring Spider-Man, uncle Ben makes banging guitar lessons
Uncle Ben: the guitar teacher we need but don't deserve.
Thank you!
That was so very well explained and masterful. The “if you’re getting this sound this is what you’re doing wrong” parts are extremely helpful as well. Great video.

By far, my favorite video lesson. Then again, I do confess to being a mad Adam Jones super fan.
One of the only people accurately playing this song...great job man!
Very well researched- UB...interesting the first time I heard Ain't Talkin Bout Love from Van Halen I had to learn it so I taught myself how to play it by wearing out that LP then in The summer 1981 I got to see them the first time and I saw Eddie was playing a ton more economically out of the Am chord at the nut compared to at the 5th fret...man I felt stupid. I still play it both ways though.
Another nice video Uncle Ben.
it totally makes sense with that percussive sound.... love your work in explaining such nuances
Nice work Uncle Ben, much love from England from Great Uncle Dave :)
Nice! I've been playing it this way and people telling me I was wrong! I saw them live many moons ago and saw him play it this way.
I really appreciate someone playing/showing how songs are actually played correctly, I'm quite the stickler myself and do a lot of research of live videos of players, great job man, oh ya and nice Les Paul!

Am I the only one who followed hearing "hammer-slap" with the thought "Hammer Slapped Face"
Yes.
Something inside me heard it ;-p
Corpse style.
SOMETHING INSIDE MEEEEEE
Nope
I kinda figured this out when I learned this riff by ear a long time ago because this is how I play it too. I’m proud of myself.
Woah, grew up listening to these riffs, and your breakdown is blowing my mind.
Hey I was just rewatching your JOSIE tutorial. Nice
Thank you for not biffing it up bud. Always bothered me when it was played by someone else but I couldn't put my finger on. Nailed it bro
I see Tool in title. I watch.
Great vid, Ben!
That live video from Pomona at the glass house is so amazing
Dude! That was a great tutorial! Best technique description, hands down, that there is on the interwebs! Thanks for your hard work on this man! 🤘
Maynard clearly has perfected his left hand technique.
Jeff Sheppard lol right?
Jeff Sheppard Maynard played a ton of bass on the lateralus tour
Must agree. Watch Adam play this in concert and that's exactly how he played it. Great job.
alotta guys dont do tutorial videos this well....nice guitar,and decent sense of humor aswell.
Thanks! Been avoiding this song for a while, but now..
"be sure not to pull off too hard",,,
That's a real valuable life lesson there kids!
Nice tool time reference 😎😎🔨🔨🔧🔧🔩🔩🧰🧰
Mr Jones saved the guitar I.M.O.
I was at a lowly low in my life when AENIMA found its way into my CD player and all was lifted!
“It’s tool time” instant like🤣
I don't play guitar, but I got a pretty good ear and the technic you show sounds identical to what is played on the album. Good job!
I noticed he does this towards the end of Fear Inoculum as well. I recently covered it and noticed that picking the open notes sounded wrong until I figured this out! Great job as always Uncle Ben!
Thanks Uncle Ben. And here I was thinking I knew all of Adam's tricks.
Thanks for your channel, my favorite guitar tutorials on youtube! All the best to you Ben, I aspire to be a shredder like you, always looking for artist's unique technique.
Finally. I always thought this should be obvious but everyone gets it wrong. Good job dude.
