HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 мар 2020
- Guitar cover of "Vicarious" by TOOL with on-screen tabs - learned mainly by ear, some live performances and some other covers.
Hope you enjoy the video! Please post your suggestions! :)
This song is another one I've been playing for quite a long time. It's always funny going back and discovering stuff you've played wrong. Have fun! :)
- USEFUL INFORMATION -
Tuning: Drop D (D A D G B E)
Trent Kraemer told me about an isolated guitar track I didn't know about, so here are some corrections (that are also updated in the tab):
37 (1:42): The 7 bend is actually a 7h8 and reappears in the last chorus
96 (4:16): The 7 is actually a hammer-on from 5h7. From 104 (4:38): it's just a single note again
146 (6:27): Ends on an 17th extended power chord
161 (7:08): It actually ends with 0h3h5h0

Apt song for the situation
Definitely 😅
A trick : watch series on flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies lately.
@Denver Ty Yup, have been watching on Flixzone} for since november myself :)
Ignore the two comments above. They're spam bots. I'd suggest reporting them.
so true
even now...
Your style of lessons/play through is my favorite method of learning songs. I hate learning chunks at a time. Much rather get a full play through in real time with the tabs and just pause when needed.
Thank you! I love to learn that way, too! I like lessons as well, but just on topics and ideas, not songs :)
you should try rocksmith 2014
Again just absolutely perfect, seems there’s nothing you can’t do
Thank you once again! :)

That song is one of the all-time greats in my opinion. Thanks for the tab. Vicarious is a challenge even after the Dream Theater stuff I've learned.
You're welcome! I updated the tab a bit due to some corrections :)
To me this is one of the greatest intro riff ever written ... love Adam effect and layers ...Adam has so much big riffs it’s countless
Its one of those riffs I've never been fully able to comprehend. I swear it feels like my brain short circuits when I attempt to make sense of the guitar riff specifically. I can almost play the entire song on bass, including the intro reasonably well, just not that break down yet, but on guitar I cant make sense of whats going on in that riff. I can't play it, not even close, i cant even make sense of it. Theres just so much going on and its subtle. Just totally unplayable for me on guitar. Its a little frustrating.
@@alexandermazilu7087 a very similar riff is at the end of Jacobs ladder by rush, I learned that one a while ago so this one was just developing the muscle memory
@@alexandermazilu7087idek what the bass is doing dude!!! But it’s still bumpin 😁🕶️🤏😎🤏
My favourite Tool song to play uploaded on my birthday by my favourite cover channel. It couldn't be any better.
That's awesome, dude! Happy birthday 🥳
"The Patient" next, pls.
That 3 to 8 stretch is killin me.
This has been my favourite song from the moment I heard it and it's simply one of the most fun songs to play in my opinion. Be it on the guitar, bass or drums. Can't wait to perform this live :D
I love this album so much, can’t wait to jam to this one.
Have fun! 🤘
We all feed on tragedy
I’ve had troubles with learning this song for a long time but after I stumbled onto your video I finally managed to get it down, thanks for the videos man I plan on refining and learning so much tool with your excellent covers
Awesome to hear, Nicholas! 🤘
Watching this again. That 1:24 volume swell ❤️
Thank you for your dedication and effort to do this for us. I touched a guitar about 10 years after the last time and started practicing some tool songs. Looking through tabs an videos everything seemed a bit off. And then I found your channel, and all my problems were solved... You sir are a man of commitment and sheer fucking will. Again THANK YOU
Probably my favorite tool song, great to see the tabs with the video!
No one can dislike, it's perfect.
I cannot believe Max managed to work out two guitar parts at 2:07, I'm actually amazed!
Gladly, the tracks are split into left and right, but it seems noone bothered to transcribe it correctly yet :D
The heaviest drop D riffs i've ever heard, especially in the chorus🔥
Max, really nice playing! you’re a superhero when it comes to guitar tabs!
Thanks! Glad to be of help :)
“I need to watch things die, from a distance” is a line that has stuck with me through the whole of covid season.
Thanks for another one! These are great.
Third Eye next?
1:49 I knew Adam Jones did that Jambi technique in Vicarious, too! Nice job, as always. It's a surprisingly tricky song to play. The intro melody is sick when it comes around the second time with dual melodies. Might re-learn this soon thanks to you and your tabs!
Thanks, man! Yes, there is actually a lot going on. I realised today that I've played many bits wrong in the past :)
He does a multiple string pull off in vicarious like the intro, and other parts of jambi?
Or, pull through I should say...and at what point does he do it again?
I've watched the 1:47 mark multiple times...dont see any multiple string "pull thru" technique like he uses in jambi...
@@MaxNiessl is that true? Is there any of that multiple string "pull thru" technique in vicarious like in the intro and other parts of jambi? Cuz...I didnt see any....
The Tool Explained. Great!
Nailed it! Young man you're impressive!!! Keep 'em coming!!!
Awesome! Would love to see Reflection by Tool! With disposition and triad if you’re feeling frisky!
When I'll do Reflection it will definitely be with Disposition and Triad ;)
Max Niessl I like “when” and not “if” 🤘
@@MaxNiessl Reflection is my favorite tool song! Hell yeah, do that holy trinity boy haha
@@videogames2629 Reflection is my favourite song. Period. I *have* to cover that one sometime :D
@@MaxNiessl that's great to hear, I look forward to those videos to again, see which parts I had right, and which were off, or just skipped over....
Best tool learning videos out there, period. Thank you for your work good sir.
Was waiting for this one, yay!
The latter half of this song doesn't give you a break holy crap
This is the best of all the tutorials. Thanks man
This is my favourite Tool song! :) Subscribed for more Tool covers.
Simply fantastic! #1 source for accurate TOOL riffs!! Keep it up man 👍
Thank you! Will do 🤘
Excellent! Thanks man. Subscribed
It's incredible, this cover is awesome dude, 🤘👍
Thank you so much! 🤘
Thank you sooo much. Some parts I just didn't have the patience to figure out myself. Your dedication is greatly appreciated!
Beautifully done! Bravo! Love your Tool covers!
Thanks, bud! \m/
Max. you're an awesome player. I'm learning these songs through your method. Thx!!!!
Just here like normal to say thank you. I truly appreciate these!
You're very welcome :)
Awesome! Always a treat to see you release a new Tool cover.
Thank you! Glad you dig it :)
Crazy. Again, Max. You are awesome. Thank you for these fucking insane playthroughs. This song is ridiculous.
This song is tied with The Pot for my favorite Tool songs. Great cover!
Thank you! 🤘
vicariously I play by watching this...
I recently took on learning this one, using your tab on songsterr. I'm gonna probably need to watch this video, too, for reference. Hands down, the best Tool covers I've seen
You have to be some kind of mad man to figure out what's happening at the 2:06 mark. Nice job as always.
That section was haunting me for years. I had a little epiphany yesterday, when I split the tracks left and right and realised that it's two tracks :D and thank you! :)
Wow! Love your videos! Great playing!!
Thank you!!
Nice! Do Eulogy or Jimmy next pls!!!
+1 for Jimmy
You are amazing, i love Tool 🤘🏻
My mind is blown. Well done!
We'll bener the god Tool, thank you for your videos Max!!!
This is accurate af good job once more!
Thank you so much for this video I'll need it for my music test this song will help me a lot with the mistimes
I don't play guitar, but I'll be damned if you didn't go above-and-beyond with the production of this video. Exquisite work my friend.
Max, you always make it look so easy! Beautiful job!
Thank you as always, dude! :)
As soon as the drums came in I was blown away by your tone, Damn! Great cover as always my man👌
Thank you! 🤘
Fantastic!
Perfect guitar cover to a fantastic song!
Amazing, man. Thanks for doing this. Making my quarantined day just a slight bit better. That tone, jesus...you nailed it.
That was the plan! Glad I made your day a bit better :)
Max amazing as always !
Thanks 🤘
Woah that’s beautiful
Bro you're so on point with TOOL and Adam.
Nailed it as per usual my friend!
Thanks as always, brother! ❤️
The most difficult Tool song to play. Absolutely love it.
it is awesome, man
Damn, I had no idea how much I was.missing, thank you for making this.
7:06 Gawd muthafuckin dayum
Thanks buddy I’ve been having trouble learning this
awesome thank you for the tabs man bless ur heart
I can play this song now because of this video, thanks man!
That’s awesome!
Good job as always man!
Thank you!
Endlich! Definitiv einer meiner top 3 Tool songs! Geiles Cover :)
Merci dir! Spielst du eigentlich momentan noch? :)
Fantastic job my good sir!! 🤘🤘
damn...i just sat and watched it first. Amazing, well done again!!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
MADD skills! Tool is so flippin complicated and I love talented musicians who make me feel inadequate. Saw them live in Jersey and still amazed at the performance. Above anything I experienced as a soldier. Fellow friends...I love listening and learning. I’ve worked at Martin Guitar for 27 years. I know our models and every spice included, like hide glue. I do this for a living with compassion... like TOOL.
Metallica's music is way more complicated than Tool's.
wonderful cover, your tone is beyond! keep it up! :D
Thank you, will do! \m/
Dude, absolutely great, well done my friend! 😉👍
Thank you, Paul! Always appreciating your comments \m/
Perfect time for this one. Good job brother.
I know right! And thank you, bro :)
This song never gets old. The most important difference is that now it is more evident than before. Mankind always are driven by basic instincs and emotion in situations of chaos and very succeptible to manipulation. I wish it could be different.
Love love love love It. Great job. I didnt realize the mistake I did in the opening riff cuz I learned it by ear and was playing the bass part as well. I guess 2 in 1:). Love to hear more from you.
That's great, Matt! Thank you ☺️
More one time man, congrets for this. Thanks!
Thank you ☺️
Nice! Thank you, Max!
You're welcome 🤘
Third week of trying to play along and I am getting very close. Thanks for this!
You are an amazing guitar player man, I hope with enough practice I can someday be even close to this good. Great taste in music too, I'd love to see more Tool stuff from you. They're my favorite band and as its really helpful to see how a song is played to learn from and I very much appreciate your philosophy that knowledge should be free. Your tabs are fantastic and immensely helpful.
You can be just as good as this guy with practice
We are similar. I had a username that was JSCZ12 omg and i also like Asuka
Nice job, keep it up!
More badass by badasses played by a badass! You never fail to impress and such amazing tones and nice use of two angles!
Thank you, Brian! 🤘
@@MaxNiessl Is that the Fortin Nameless you use Max? I wish I had one of those, sound's immense!!
Hey dude, if you don't mind I'd appreciate it if you'd take a look at the video I made today... learnt some tool in reverse xD
wowowowowowow
thank you so so much
Great cover man! Glad to see youre in shape and still making Tool covers, youre a big inspiration for me 👌🤝
Thanks, bro! I'll make them 'til I'm out of songs haha! Looking forward for covers or music by you, man :)
@@MaxNiessl Thats great to hear! 🔥Haha, Im on it! 🤝💪
I wish I could play like that someday. Awesome work man!
Thank you! You definitely will, bud :)
Perfect as usual
Thank you once again, Archie! :)
that ending is so tasty
making those 0 3 5 slurs look easy, nice one.
Dude, your channel is so underapreciated...
I honestly feel very appreciated on here, great community! But glad you're digging my content, Laurent! :)
@@MaxNiessl Thats great! I should have said that I personally think you deserve much more attention since you're so good and that the production of your vids are always in high quality. I did not mean to imply that your channel is not appreciated. Looking forward to watch more of your content!
Great job mate
If I had to pick a favorite Tool song this would be it. Thanks buddy
Thank you, Lino! I hit the motherload then, I guess :D
0:07 just leaving this here for every time I fuck up
Haha, you can do it bud 🤘
You're the person who got me into tool a couple years ago when I got my first guitar, keep up the great work my man and thank you for this amazing vid. Also, if possible, could you make a video for "the only thing they fear is you", or any other song from mick gordon and the doom franchise, tysm!
Let’s gooooooo! You the man!
Have fun, bud! 🤘
Man, thank you for this job!)))
You're welcome! :)
@@MaxNiessl every time)
Bro! You are so amazing at capturing Adam’s technique and sound! I loveee watching you cover these songs. Idk if you’re as secretive as Adam, but it would be awesome if you would make a video giving us a tour of your whole set-up and show us how you achieve this tone😄anyways great cover and I hope to see more!
Thank you, Seth! Maybe sometime, but I don't have the equipment to record stuff like this right now. Definitely want to make some lessons on that kind of stuff in the future :)
