Danny Carey isn't A drummer, he is THE Drummer.
Brann from Mastodon is a beast too, you should check out the drum battle between Danny and Brann
if Joey still be alive ............
Second best all time after Neil Peart
@@robertoverkamp4567 Neil lost top spot after he went on a decade long road trip.
@@adamlubieniecki9074 Joey praises this man as a god. Joey is nothing compared to Danny. Joey is good, but that’s at best.
Too many people act like they’re good because they THINK they could play someone else music.. first off, you can’t. Also this man not only can play this style of music at the highest level, in front of a live audience. But he wrote this.. writing a masterpiece like this is arguably more impressive than playing it. Absolute legend
Spot on! ❤️
💯
Yesss
*rolls eyes* I bet you’re not a musician.

Danny Carey is a living microprocessor. The math that goes on in his head is absolutely insane.
Some say he's looking for a rhytm that will confuse the sand worms of Arrakis.
I don't believe he is thinking anything when he plays, You simply cannot think about all of that, it's impossible. That is the magic of playing like that. It takes a foundation of incredible skill and muscle memory and theory but to play like Danny you just have to clear your mind surrender your well practiced body to the music . That is why he looks so zen when he plays, because he is.
Absolutely right, can hardly wrap my mind around Danny's skills
Just mindblowing
@@rony3646 I asked Danny what time signatures is the middle of Rosetta Stoned in. He said "I don't know, I don't count it"
Yes, he is THAT good
Yep. He’s said he goes off feeling, not counting. He also is one of the only drummers who doesn’t wear an ear piece live. Their guitarist said he doesn’t know how he does it.
Danny Carey is not just some newbie. He’s what professionals call professional. He is the best. Hands down
Exactly. He's literally the best. Nothing else needs to be said lol
He’s your favorite drummer’s favorite drummer!
You guy just witnessed one of the best drummers in the world, he is classically train with a master in music, also in this video he's 58 years old. Danny is a beast on the drums
He's 6'5" tall.
Aloke Dotta. Master tabla drummer trained him on the tablas.
@@hampyonce I’m 6’8”. But I only use my hands. No sticks.
@@jeffparris7726 Makes sense with all the odd time signatures. A hint of that tabla trigger too is sweet & telling.
Welcome to witnessing one of the best drummers on the entire planet mind blown every performance
Fun fact about Danny Carey: He was a great basketball player growing up but chose a career in music instead. Every arena Tool plays in, the team from that arena provides him a uniform, in this case they were in Boston
Fun fact: Larry bird went of record saying, "Danny is simply the greatest everything at everything. I wish I was him truthfully."
@@ForChrist661I'd love to see that source..
@@Lateralus138 It was like 15 years ago, it was right after Danny and Larry played 1-on-1 (which Danny won 21-17).
He's from Lawrence, KS. Whenever he comes to KC or Wichita he wears a Jayhawks jersey.
Wichita State has proven themselves…KU are cheaters just like my Orange. What are we gonna do??
"So far very simple stuff". Right after the whole intro odd time signature you didn't name. Count it it's nuts! Then the 4/4 resolve that makes more sense & is refreshing. I've not been a Tool fan but Danny Carey is like ET level percussion. All that tension & resolve is beautiful.
Indeed. Sorry, but the drummer in this video seems to be rather full of himself.
@@snarkyguy2657 It's almost like he assumed a 4/4 from the get go obviously not really paying attention. Finally said "odd timing" but made no attempt to decipher it. IMO a real percussionist would make some attempt out of pure curiosity & bewilderment.
I literally laughed out loud when he said that.
Exact exactly, at least I could tell you the first time listener LOL
I've watched tonnes of these reactions and it's amazing how many times the intricasies are completelty missed; more often than not they're too busy discussing what he's wearing over the intro. I was blown away with the slowing timing of the very beginning part, then the polyrhythms and the time signature of the verse the first time I watched it. How can musicians not be!?
Hes got the groove in the pocket of Bonham with the meticulous timing approach like Peart. Hes a drumming monster in a league of his own
Excellent comment!
Very well said
The thing about Tool is, they write musical compositions, not just songs. Each member of the band is a master at their instrument, including Maynard. They each put their talent and expertise equally into their songs, and all of them are highlighted in them. It’s a masterfully working cohesive unit of true artists, and poets.
People get so confused at why Maynard stands in the back and not the front as a frontman, it’s because of this exact comment. He’s not a “front man” he’s another instrumentalist. Front man is all hyped and vocals are more prominent, he blends in just the same as every other member
@@justinwilder3514 Exactly! It shows the lack of ego a frontman usually has. He knows and respects their talents, and contributions to the art that is their music. They all know that of each other. I’ve never really known of another band like that.
I love tool but Adam is definitely not a great guitarist. He just has an awesome style. But he can't stand with someone like Jason Richardson
@@Mavis709 is anyone better then Robert Johnson?
He sold his soul to the devil!
@@Mavis709 explain how Adam is not great at his craft, please. If you’re going to make an assertion like that, you need to explain. Because, if we’re just making random declarations,...fun! Here’s mine-Keanu Reeves is the greatest actress ever! Yep...ACTRESS!
"You won't see that in a church." Is one of the best lines ever said about Danny Carey and Tool. Hands down! 🤣💀
Are you 12?
@@FlippyHambone huh? Why would anyone's age have anything to do with my comment?
i was just thinking the same thing lol i would say there are other reasons maynard might not like that
Truth, and there's more spirit of God in the guys of Tool than any "church" leader
@@EricLouisYoung You should listen to more Tool.
One thing I dig about Danny is his posture, his back is straight and aligned, keeps his shoulders upright and square and his wrist technique is spot-on, a genuine master on the drumkit; his posture exudes confidence
I bet Collins wished he kept his posture as good as Danny’s if he had he wouldn’t be in such a mess now
Let's not forget the dude is an athlete. He used to be a basketball player and he's a big guy. Look at his muscles
Take a look on Matt Greiner
I've heard this song thousands of times and it still gives me chills.
That wasn’t crazy? Not many drummers could execute that so perfectly. Most drummers probably couldn’t even count what he just did. At one point 4 limbs are playing in 4 different times.
This always blows my mind. I can barely get all four of my limbs working together well enough to keep me from tripping on a dust bunny.
Yeah, that's the Danny magic. He makes incredibly difficult things look easy. Also, there is a difference between 1. playing this drum part, 2. playing it live in front of a huge crowd, and 3. *writing* this drum part.
Not crazy? Nothing special? Dude, you couldn't even qualify to be a zit on Danny Carey's ass. There is a reason he is called "the octopus". I'd probably die laughing watching you try to perform a separate rhythm with each limb like Danny does flawlessly. Clown...
This guy “gospel drummers can do this, but they don’t”, yes because unless you’re one of like the top 100 drummers in the world, you had to google what the time signature is. I would love to see captain confidence here attempt to play the verse groove alone.
@@timbryan57 I think he hit 11/32 at one point there.
I also want to say, that part of Danny Carrey's expertise, isn't always doing something CRAZY technical that no one else could reproduce. (And not that he doesn't do those things too, because he does). What's amazing is that he writes such great rhythm compositions that add SO MUCH FEELING to the song itself. Like, you can listen to GREAT guitarists, but not a tenth of them can make you feel like a David Gilmour would. Here, we have a man who is not only technically gifted with the ability to play masterful tempos and polyrythms, but he is also just a master at composition itself, adding so much thought and feeling into the song. This is why he is more than great, and to many Tool fans, a fuckin' legend. :)
Loved the video dudes!
Well said 👏🏻
"Nothing crazy is going on."
"The crazy polyrhythms."
Words, my man.
Danney Carey to me is currently the greatest drummer on the planet in the greatest rock band in the world. Just saw them the other night in Las Vegas, they put on a show like no other band I’ve seen, four incredible musicians.
A little more insight into Danny's kit. He uses a combination of electronic pads and conventional drums. The pads with the designs on the heads are Mandala pads ( which he helped design and develop). He has 7 of those 4 to his left and 3 to the right. Each pad has 128 strike points arranged in 7 concentric circles, each of these 7 zones can be programmed individually to a different tone so just like a regular drum the tone gets higher the closer to the rim you hit. You will notice at the start that there are 3 distinct tones on the pad depending on where on the head he hits it. Accuracy also comes into play. When he's playing the rim shots on his snare, the pad he's playing the triplet pattern on is a Korg Wd-1 wave drum, programmed to sound like a tabla. He has thousands of sounds that he can program the pads to sound like. As he says, it expands his vocabulary. This video was made shortly before Danny's 59th Birthday. Looking forward to watching more of your reactions, subbed for your enjoyable content. ✌🤘🤘
so, a beginner kit? 😁
@@xZOOMORPHICx well.....if you want to add in 2 kick drums, a 44lb cast bronze snare, 2 floor toms, either a pair of roto toms or rack toms, a 40" Paiste symphonic gong, the electronic key pad above it called a Marimba Lumina, a Roland hand sonic, all the electronic components for his pads and close to a dozen pieces of china (cymbals) plus anything I forgot or are unaware of,and still call it a starter kit........have at it.🤣🤣🤣✌
@@jeffmatthews6672 I'm good. lol
I have a Bayan and a Dayan, that's all.
Don't forget the gong 😆
@@knoppixx , already checked that box.✏🤣🤣✌
Danny wrote one of the best drum riffs I’ve ever heard in “Pnuema”
Tool makes more sense when you realize they have a lead drummer and backup guitars.
Holy moly. My eyes were just opened.
Not to be rude, but I would love to see you emulate this masterpiece on a drum kit!
The man just said he cant do it lol
😂😂😂
It's definitely a workout on the wrists and arms, lol.
@@majorbigss1 Multiple times he states in this song that "not hard, though".
Have to agree with Rodney; would love to see this guy emulate this masterpiece.
That's what I thought! "...it's not crazy hard..." Okay... I am in for it... just let us witness your interpretation... ^^
This song is fantastic, especially rhythmically. The main riff, for example, is in phrases of 33/16. Of course you can subdivide that a million ways but that is the structure of it
Hence the 33 tee
Glad you counted it, I got lost in the late 20s!
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz knowing Danny his Jersey was probably on purpose 🤣
Yeah the way I hear it is a series of 3s and 2s divided into 2 8-beat measures. I'm not sure how Tool actually counts it but that's the natural feeling i get when I listen.
@@Gideonite the Jersey was worn because this concert was in Boston. Larry Bird was #33 and one of best players to ever play on that team. However, the “33” may also relate to the count. I mean……it is TooL.🌀
Non-drummers: OMG DID YOU SEE WHAT HE DID???
Drummers: Yawn.
Non-drummers: Yawn.
Drummers: DID YOU SEE WHAT HE JUST DID???
And I'm the one saying OMG both times. Not a drummer but I can usually tell when something's harder than it looks (because I've had it explained enough times by drummers lol), but at the same time I love some just plain awesome-sounding drums even if it's easier than it sounds since I can't do any of it anyway lol.
Danny Carey is a polyrhythm God. Glad you’re enjoying Tool. Check out Right in Two with lyrics. Chilling.
Something incredible about Danny Carey (drummer) is the way he can control the volume of his drumming with precision, slowly building volume and anticipation. #dannycareyisthegoat
"His technique's good so far.."
Bruh..
Anyway, I'm going to see this guys live in Feb next year. So hyped.
Me too!!! February 8th in Orlando. This is the only band left on my concert bucket list. I can barely stand it.
Seeing them in January...Tool should be on every bucket list.
I was at the show where this video was recorded, and will be back in the Garden again in February to see them. Can’t wait!
@@samneedsanap7802 I’m going to the Orlando show too! Can’t wait!
IKR? Yet these guys are 'musicians' LMFAO
I say it all the time, TOOL is art! And Danny Carrey is beyond kinikini!!
😊 and you spelt Kinikini the right way too💪🏽
Fukin WORD BRUV
Neil Peart Drum Solo (Live in Frankfurt)
The Professor's drum kit will blow your mind. Neil's mastery of his craft is evident with the precision in which he plays. With his passing last year, grateful for these recorded moments for generations to enjoy the GOAT.
Danny and Neil are the two GOATs of drums, imho. RIP Neil! Neil carried the torch and passed it to Danny and Danny finished what Neil started.
Such restraint and subtle brilliance. That 4 minute interlude in the middle in insanely difficult yet he makes it look like child’s play. The ending is a thing of beauty. He quietly finishes not with a bombastic flourish but a perfectly balanced quiet ending.
Yes right back to the original rhythm, I love it it is so well constructed
He is definitely a master of all the styles. Before he was in tool, he was a session drummer and played in tons of other bands. He was even in a country band with Jeff Buckley in the late 80s before either of them blew up. Now both are legends. But he still plays a lot of other styles. He plays a lot of jazz and fusion stuff on his free time these days.
I still need to make it to the Baked Potato some time. I live fairly close to it.
@@chump203 I would love to see VOLTO!
What band was he in with Jeff Buckley? Are you sure?
@@HiddenHandMedia yes, I’m positive. I don’t know the name of the band before, and there are no recordings. It was a gigging band in the 80s in LA. They both were in tons of bands back then, even multiple bands at the same time, and both are very versatile in their playing styles and interests, so it’s actually not too surprising they ended up in a band together back then. But yeah, I’m totally positive. He’s said it in interviews before, and if you really want a specific citation I can give you right away now, you can watch the interview with Bill Manspeaker from Green Jello on the Trash Talkers RUclips channel. He was close friends with Tool back then, and he mentions it in that interview from what I can remember.
I wish there was video of them playing together though, that would’ve been awesome to see.
Danny is a legend. So glad you watched this
Tool for me is a band where the drums is the lead instrument. If you listen to what the guitar and bass play is fairly simple and repetitive it actually speaks a lot about Dany’s writing. When you really break it down it’s amazing the patterns he writes and how they can be broken down mathematically. The fact he’s mixing rock, African and eastern styles in one song should tell you about his vast abilities. Plus I love his use of volume, those cross stick pattern swells in loudness and softness.
He’s in the conversation as one of the best ever. Listen to more. You mentioned poly rhythms but never the insane uncountable time signatures that he’s dropping 4 count fils into at exacting moments. Oh, BTW, video you watched is a ne song off new album and I believe he is 60 years old during that video. Due’s a damn Drum God!
You guys will probably like Rosetta Stoned. He goes pretty ham on that song.
Danny plays a lot of Jazz outside of Tool, I believe.
This can’t be emphasized enough.
Check out Volto
Tool are the best at subtle. Every listen to their songs reveals something new that you didn't pick up last time. I've been listening to them since I first heard stinkfist in 1995 and I'm still getting something new from their music to this day.
Keep going on this journey and let it sink in and feel it crawl across your soul.
The poly rhythms aside, his mastery of dynamics is what sets him apart from others. It imparts a sense of inflection, much like in vocals.
All anyone talks about is Dannys playing. For good reason he is the best drummer alive and top 5 all time. But what people miss is the sound and tone of his drums! He takes a lot of time making his drums sound amazing. His drum tone is unmatched. Best quote “you won’t see this in church. The church guys don’t do this “ LOL understatement of the year.
You want to hear Danny Carey fully rippin it? You want to hear what it's like when Danny Carey sweats? You need to listen to Ticks and Leeches, The Grudge, and Pushit (Salival) period. Some of the greatest drum work that has ever graced my ears.
Pushit is top 5 songs of theirs for me. It’s so damn good!
Don't forget Chocolate Chip Trip!
Danny also plays drums for the band Volto, which is like an instrumental metal jazz band.
Theyll be in Europe soon. After seeing over 1200 concerts in my lifetime, and not being a hardcore tool fan, i can easily and honestly say this was absolutely and unequivocally the best show i have ever seen in my life. 3/12/22
Danny is such an amazing drummer, yet he's never self-indulgent, everything he does is within the flow of the song, and he always knows when and when not to play. Top 5 GOAT IMO
The most impressive thing is that he is 61 years old and 6'5" tall and can still drum like this!
What’s height got to do with anything?
The greatest living drummer
Only because Neil just passed, but love me some Danny
Better than Travis Barker!? jk
Larnell Lewis is typing...
Danny, the only drummer that can take me to a whole other universe ✨
Danny's DRUMSTICKS look like HUMMINGBIRD WINGS in his hands. ✌
Danny is jazz trained so he is definitely in the farthest reaches of the galaxy in terms of skill and versatility
Also studied Bol
Not just trained, he actively plays a variety of genres, including Jazz.
And then there's all the experimental, freeflow and freestyle stuff he's involved in.
Anybody else get in their feelings for a second when dude said "so far pretty simple stuff" ? Great reaction tho he figured out eventually that Danny is a God
I like your commentary on how technically hard it is to do those rhythms and hitting
them drums so hard and being extremely tight on his timing and doing this in the
middle of a show and at almost 60 years old.
This was an amazing solo for a perfect song.
Can’t wait to see Tool in January for the first time after 25 years of listening. Saw A Perfect Circle in 2011, and it was insane but this is next level.
Happy for you, enjoy!
They're incredible. It's an experience, not just a gig.
Embrace the moment, remember we are eternal. All this pain is an illusion.
Ive seen them 15 or 16 times now (i lost a ticket stub im SURE of it). I saw this performed, in Denver, just before the pandemic hit.
You will love it.
Yup I'm going to in January once again.
Most of the greatest drummers like Danny have a huge Jazz background.
Bill Ward was a jazz drummer. He called himself a percussionist. Love love Bill Ward!!!! I highly suggest you check out some Black Sabbath, if you are not familiar. I would suggest “
Hand of Doom
Tool Army here, not crazy hard you say, let us see you do any of what you just witnessed. Cause you just saw one of the best drummers in the world.
This drum masterpiece went over his head! It would take him months to get close to playing the first section
I love the porridge analogy. Lots of smart and interesting language from you guys to describe how this stuff works in this video and I really enjoyed it.
He's probably a really good teacher
It is a new song, they're just next level, no one touches this bands sound!
It's a new song, but they took 11 years to write and perfect it.
20:57 ‘like listen to what the guitarists are playing. They’re playing…’ - gentlemen that’s 1 man, Adam Jones. Also one of the greatest and most creative artists of all time.
Mr. Chancellor would like a word with you.
@@thorfinsky1427 tell him I’m available at 4:20 this afternoon.
He is playing to the song. Some of the best things a drummer or any musician can do is have restraint to provide the dynamics a song needs.
Well you said others can do this, but i am still waiting on a proper cover for this song! the guy has 4 brains, one for each limb! XD
Best, most honest, most friendly conversation reaction! Respect to both of you. Keep on the path. Listen to the music. Don’t bother with music videos or lyrics. God bless to both of you. Spiral Out!
Keep going
Lol how you gonna say don’t bother with the lyrics and then quote the lyrics?
You have been exposed to a GOAT! As a percussionist I'm Glad you're not butthurt!😂 Only in another in a lifetime would it be possible for me to ever play like this; I'd love to see your version of this! ✌️ My Brothers and stay awake!
The one point that is very much understated is Danny's creativity! There are maybe a handful of drummers that can pull this song off properly, but to create this masterpiece or anything close to it??? He is a beauty! You can see the enjoyment!
appreciate your reaction and that you notice the complexity of what he does 💜 they definitely have some songs with much heavier drums, as i saw others mention. The guys who make up Tool are regularly listed by other musicians as their favorite drummer/guitarist/bassist/singer. they’re all god-tier individually and really know how to work together to make the band as a whole shine.
Danny is a versatile drummer; as with the other band members he writes his drums to fit the song, not always be the spotlight. He just happens to be good enough to have his share of the spotlight without trying to. They all are geniuses in their own right...
Danny Carey's sick time signatures and insane power makes him probably one of the top drummers on the planet.
You mention them playing this song for a long time....this song is actually off thier newest album they put out about 2 years ago. Let's not forget that Danny Carey is 60 years old and abbbbsssooolluuttteeellllyyyy kiilllllliiinnnngggg iiiittttttt!!
Some other really good songs that are like Danny's paintings are:
Ticks and Leeches
Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned [should be listened together in that order]
Pushit [Salival version]
He's also an accomplished Jazz musician - he's got quite a few videos of him doing this genre on RUclips so give it a search 'Danny Carey playing Jazz'
Most of Danny's influences are from some form of jazz.
You can hear his jazz influences in Pneuma in particular. Now I need to check him out actually playing jazz!
I’m a worship drummer, and while I’m nowhere near Danny’s talent, I use poly and fills like this. It has its place. The slow builds and explosive fills Danny does are so impressive.
Edit: Tool doesn’t use a click track either
Danny is the click track.
13.58 "it's very tedious". I've been alive for over a thousand years and that's the first time I've heard drumming like that described as tedious,. No matter how cool you think you are, it's ok to appreciate genius. Ok, he's not the fastest, he's not the youngest anymore, but he's all the proof you need to show you don't have to be either of those to be the best at it!
Lol it's like rubbing your stomach, patting your head, tapping your foot to a different rhythm, and doing your taxes all at the same time.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
You hit the nail on the head with the comment about being in the right headspace to listen to Tool. A lot of music is like chewing bubblegum. Tool is eating a four course meal.
Appreciated the analogy use. He’s on whatever outer planet just on musical influence alone. There’s also a moon orbiting that planet named after him based on his skill. Tool fans would name a galaxy after this man.
Another thing to remember when watching that video is that Danny Carey was 58 when that was recorded. Some musicians "lose it" as they get older, but he has spent his life becoming a master of his craft. He is at the top of his game still at this age. If you want to hear Danny Carey in a different context, he also plays drums for a live jam band called Volto! It's more of a jazz fusion style.
Really enjoyed your analysis and honest comments, glad you exploring different genres of music, textured
Danny Carey studied classical Indian tabla drumming for a few years so that definitely added to the vocabulary. (Edit: You're right, we thought you were going to be more impressed 😂 But we didn't know we were messin' with a gospel chops guy!)
Lolz
That is very true! Carey is a world-studied percussionist, especially Indian percussion. Being of Indian decent and recognizing his use of tabla etc. impresses the hell out of me and even our percussionists. These guys are in NO WAY accredited or qualified to "critique" a known master of percussion. But hey that's my opinion I suppose. This critique was garbage! They SHOULD be impressed by Danny Carey!
Great reaction!!!! Nobody and I mean nobody has the precision and the dynamics that he has. He is the absolute GOAT🔥
This is the pinnacle of drumming. What more did these guys want from him?!?!
Was going to comment this on you guys' other tool react video, but- these are the first reaction videos i've seen where it's really clear the hosts are good musicians. nice work :)
OMG yes. An amazing song with an amazing drummer with a great cam. So glad you're reacting to this! I haven't even finished and I already love it.
Uhhh...have you finished yet?
Danny like his main influence, "The Professor", Neil Peart of Rush studied all styles of drumming. Both iconic drummers stated that their mentor was late great, Buddy Rich. Tool's fans called Danny "The Octopus" due to his hands and feet able to move in different rhythm or beat. Speaking of his influence, have both of reacted to Neil Peart's drum solo recorded live in Frankfurt, Germany?
You guys should keep pushing. This is the best review of this video I have seen. Well done!
I think what you're trying to get at is the MUSICALITY of Danny's playing; the dynamics, the restraint, the textures. He is such an integral, even foundational, driver of the songwriting itself.
You could swap any drummer with chops into most bands. There is no Tool without Danny.
If you want to check out someone Danny Carey geeks out over, Tomas Haake "the master of polyrhythms" in the band Meshuggah, Bleed is the moste popular one but i would suggest to check out drum playthrough of Clockworks or Nostrum (its heavy music).
16:21 interesting that you caught that. It seemed like he was so excited that he nailed that section that he got a little distracted. Kinda like at the end of recording a guitar track or something when you play it right the whole song, and the pressure of recording makes the last section more anxious, trying it keep it perfect. I can only imagine a scenario like this. Live, pro drum shot. He knew he was on the spot. The fact that he didnt falter more is incredible in itself.
He was grinning at Justin.
Can we take a second to realize Danny hits the center of each skin and cymbal every time like a sniper in the center of a scope.
The members of Tool are all amazingly talented musicians in their own right but when all 4 are playing together it’s straight up magic. I was hooked 10 seconds into the first song I heard from them 30 years ago and to this day my hairs stand on end, my eyes become moist and my head feels warm and fuzzy. Fucking love these guys. By the way….I was at this concert in Boston, 3rd row. I took my 14 year old son with me. It was his first concert ever. I believe I have ruined any live performance he’ll ever see in his future. 🤘🏼🌀
Outstanding. Hope to do the same with my son.
i think you missed the fact that at one time danny was playing 4 different rhythms at once
You do realize polyrhythms started with traditional African music, right? also, pretty crazy how many Tool fans seem to forget that Jazz exists. You stans make it seem like Danny is the ONLY person who can play like this.
@@keithgraham8588 no I don’t think that. I know Danny is a jazz fan for example and that there are a heck load of great drummers out there and in the past 👍
He can play any style. He plays Miles Davis with 2 keyboardists, he can rock your face off with tunes like The Grudge or Aenema, he can do polyrythms like this, he plays what the music calls for, not just to show off. He is a master, and he comes from an alternate universe.
This is a very interesting and engaging video, I love that you take the time to explain a process or a technique. The way you explain things to your mate, it seems like you would be a good teacher, and you make it easier to understand unlike a lot of the "drum teacher react " videos that are out there. Very cool.
effortless wizadry - love your channel guys
I need to see you drum lol.
They don't dare go down the Neil Peart/Rush wormhole, do they"?!"😀
"xanadu" off of exit stage left" and that'll do it
Love the break down! My new favorite reaction channel!
He is a full on Jazz drummer too that is where he started. This is his style for Tool. I watched Chambers trying to play to this and I was a bit sad. He never sits in a pocket playing a straight pattern.
Go back and do the math...5 times thru the toms, then 4 times, then 3, then 2, then 4 count to double bass part. Intentional and elegant.
You nailed Danny's style. I loved watching you analyze it. I'm a terrible drummer but I see what you see.
And the dude is 60 years old…
Thanks for all the Tool reactions. This is the best drum cam of him. People freak out over this video, but I don't think it's their best work either. They have some crazier songs, just no drum cams to go along with it.
This is the type of reaction videos I love to watch, people with knowledge of the craft experiencing different styles to their own, it is great ( well I say to their own as this is the first video I have ever watched on this channel). I just stumbled across this video by accident and as a TOOL fan I must this is a great insight and break down of the song here by these two.
Hell yeah champions! Thanks for watching it I thought it might be of interest! It is art right. The polyrhythmic section is like a display of great skill and the timing of the verses is something I just can't wrap my head around. But I love that video. Having the drums that touch more forward just makes most music better in my opinion.
If you wanna listen to Danny Carey solo, check out his performance of their song “Chocolate Chip Trip”; it’s breathtaking.
Explaining his drumming as "tough" is such an understatement.
This video was delicious. Excellent commentary from a professional, great banter. I'd watch this all day. Good job boys 👏 👏 👏
Since you like the drums you have to do the live version of “Hatesong” by Porcupine Tree.
I'll need to check that song out. Time flies came on a music service I was using and I loved it.
