This song has the world record for longest song to ever win a Grammy. Facts!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I assume the conversation with the label went something like this. You made a 17-minute song no radio station will play it? Radio hasn't really ever played our shit anyway! You're right do it lol
A record that will be impossible to beat!!!
@@rafanj824 until Tool does it again. (Fingers crossed, but if this is it I'll be good with it.)
@@claytonbearden7793 I think we might get one more but by one more I'm thinking probably like five songs and they don't really have to put out albums I mean they could be productive and make Amazing Music just putting out singles as they get done which is kind of the blueprint now for lots of artists
Since you bring up Led Zeppelin, you might want to check out Tool's cover of No Quarter from their live album Salival if you haven't already. They do exactly what you praise them for here and take the old song but make it sound like a Tool original.
yes 🤘
Yes, No Quarter next!
Truth.
Hell yes....that is one of favourite covers of all time! That and Swans version of Tainted Love.
I think he's listened to all of tools stuff before, just not this album.
As other Tool fans have said, Fear Inoculum is Danny's album but this song is all about Adam 7ones. A true prog metal masterpiece.
Danny is still Imperial here while Adam is going ballistic .....
Same with descending, Adam kills it after maynard has a brief spot highlighting his softer range
You’re the first person to react to this song to catch the 21 count time signature in the first listen. You’re a real one
"It's not a vanity thing. It's just art."
Well said! ❤️
"It's not a vanity thing, it's just... art." Best comment and compliment I've heard about Adam, and Tool in general.
Underrated comment. Well said. By him and you.
The seven time signature is the very reason Tool used it as their song title, "7" for 7empest. Maynard's a word meister!!
The “Control your delusions” part from Maynard at the end always gets me. The added parts in the background are so good.
subliminal brilliance. the vocals are so original in execution and production as always.
I totally agree. This part mesmerises me. I love the shadow vocals that seem to come from low down behind you.
The number seven is a symbol throughout the album. They play in 7 alot!
They also use a seven-pointed star for their logo
@@mmatthews90 you'll find 6- (unicursal hexagram), 7-, and 8-pointed stars on Danny's drums on different tours. He loves his occult symbology!
It's a reference to completion or perfection in numerology. Tool is heavily influenced by kabbalah and occultism and the themes are in most of the music. The "Tempest" is a great storm, like the flood in the book of Genesis in Torah where the earth was destroyed and then restored. This explains a lot about the song's lyrics and rhythms.
Lots of fun. I’ve seen lots of reviewers (I’m not sure why) but some are not good. I watched your whole series and it was great. Lots of small notes you made that me (as a non musician) don’t hear.
The sense of completion at the end of song with the last fills from Danny, unparalleled.
Amazing reaction John, you did awesome on this Fear Inoculum journey.
I can tell you did love the album and especially the last two songs (Culling Voices & 7empest), at least with your first listen.
The engineering on this album is just out of this world to me.
7empest is the final boss of Fear Inoculum, just like Third Eye was to Aenema, the Holy Trinity to Lateralus and Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned to 10,000 Days.
Everybody is at their A-game here but just look at Adam, shining with his talent and Les Paul.
Going full solo for 4 minutes in the middle of the song and it's not even a real "solo" per se. It's just so well blended into the song.
Playing this on guitar, I just have a blast every single time.
16-minutes song here, did you even notice it ? I didn't. And I've played and listened to it at least a 1000 times by now.
Still Mocking Beat left before closing this amazing Fear Inoculum chapter.
With these lasts reactions videos, you really built up your TOOL fanbase I can guarantee you ahah.
If you're feeling like it, it would be awesome to have you react (again) to the previous albums, I'm sure you don't remember all their songs from then so just share your journey with us. I know I won't be the only one suggesting this to you.
Keep it up !
NB : do not skip their video ad on Adam 1979 Les Paul signature guitar called "The Witness". It's Adam, Justin and Danny (only Maynard missing) for 7 minutes straight of pure bliss, just for an ad !
It's interesting that you said that "Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned" is the 'final boss' on "10,000 Days" because in my mind it is "Intension/Right In Two". I love "LK/RS" too, but as far as songs that put a stamp on it, "Intension/Right In Two" would be my pick for that album.
Thanks, that was some real insight. Oh, and I’m so jealous that you can play guitar along to this. I play bass, but am nowhere near good enough to even attempt to emulate Justin. I can dream, though…
@@gosborg No problem ! I am not the best guitarist in the world for sure but being passionate about TOOL and guitar just made me find the will to keep pushing forward to learn the songs I guess. It really helps if you can find some material to help you. RUclips is a great example. Maybe you know already but check LeoBassCovers RUclips channel, he is a great bass player who does tabs for bass. For guitar there is Max Niessl, without all the work he put in doing those guitar tabs I would not have been able to learn all these songs !
I must admit, I never really listened to Tool at all, but listening to this album has convinced me to check out their Discography. For me, 'Pneuma' is the most powerful song on the album though and I can't stop listening to it!
welcome to the party.
If you liked this check out the album Lateralus. Absolute masterpiece and in a kind of similar style to this one
Enjoy the ride
Try Lost Keys 🔑/ Rosetta Stoned
I was the same way I had a friend who is a huge tool fan. Introduced me about a year before this album came out. Once I heard this album I was fully invested.
Adam Jones absolutely melts my face off! And your right it’s not vanity…it’s just part of the story! Tool gives me chills!
Interesting that no-one has mentioned the King Crimson reference in 7empest, yet. The shifting polyrhythmic lines from the intro are almost 100% straight from their 1981 'Frame By Frame', only slowed down. If I remember correctly, it was Fripp and Adrian Belew playing in 15/8 vs 14/8 against each other, or something similar, only playing in unison whenever the two metres lined up. So there you have it, Crimson and Zeppelin combined in one epic song, a match made in heaven.
I'm glad you mentioned King Crimson. The first time I heard this, I immediately recognised the similarity with Frame by Frame. Tool soon transform it to their signature epic sound.
18:55 it is a china cymbal, it actually blew my mind how Danny's playing that 4/4 over the 21/8 breakdown or whatever time sig it is the first time I heard it
He beats the hell out of it
The best part of the song for me, i always get crazy with that cymbal and all that groove!!!! Oh, and the guitar solo that comes with that groove!!! How you can't be a fan after listen to this album??
I have seen a lot of great reactions of Tool, but you have the absolute best reactions!
Thanks John!
Facts John!
Such an Epic, mathematical artist these 4 guys are. More Tool please! Keep going!
Lets gooo, you finally got to tempest. When you mentioned that tempest's intro riff sounds like muse I had never seen it like that. Its spot on though, muse is also my favorite band followed by tool, so that was a cool comparison, these reactions are sick!
Thoroughly enjoyed your reviews of FI. I heard Tool for the first time in May. I've been obsessed ever since. I'm 53 and a lifelong Rush, prog and metal fan. Thrilled to be experiencing Tool and watching knowledgeable reviewers experiencing them too. Astonishing band. Great channel, I'll be sticking around.
Danny's pretty heavy into sacred geometry. I'm sure that has something to do with the mathiness.
I've been a tool fan since back when Undertow came out. They've been my favorite band since then, regardless of how long it had been between albums. One of my favorite things about them is that each album is an evolution from the last. They may give you a taste of what's to come on each album (like a song that stands out as a little different at the time, but rests completely within the next album) while still maintaining a full album feel throughout. One thing I noticed in my first listen to this song is how much the breakdown at around the 11:30 mark harkens back to the Undertow album. It feels like they took a step back in time for just that section of music. Absolutely love this track...
I thought the opening heavy riff was very Undertow-esque, and I loved that about it
according to what i've read, a lot of the riffs may well have come from as far back as that. adam is a stickler for logging/remembering riffs and a good idea is never discarded, merely filed for possible future use.
More Tool!Do the Lateralus album!If you want math the title song “Lateralus” has the Fibonacci sequence 🤓
I'm a non-musician who loves music so a lot of what you talk about is over my head but I still enjoy your reactions to this amazing song and this phenomenal band. Every time I hear this song some new element jumps out at me and I'm flummoxed and excited anew... That's tool for you
Your little aside about wearing 70s influences while maintaining your own character made me think of Down. They nail it.
11:14 - Oh the 4/4-13/8 bass that starts here and goes on for some five minutes.. Niiiice.
Great reaction as always!, after Fear Inoculum you should react to "The Witness" by Adam Jones featuring Justin Chancellor and Danny Carey
Not sure why but this song actually tears me up. I have always preferred their slower more cognitive songs but this one is their masterpiece. The energy and groove it takes for these 50 and 60 year old dudes to pull this off is astounding.
Yes, I do ‘fancy more Tool’. Please give the people what they want. 😂
I think Adam saved up all the riffs for 13 years and just unleashed them on us in one epic Tempest.
Love this song, Adam goes off, Danny is immense as usual, Maynard’s vocals are intense and I love how Justin holds it down and still Mankato make his presence felt in the (very small) gaps between the others’ playing.
Bring some more Tool on John, see you on the next one.
@23:15 When I first heard this part I got chills because it is a subtle homage to Tool's 2nd album UNDERTOW. Listen to the song Undertow @5:10 , you'll hear what I mean.
Love it JW and clearly so do you. Thought your head was going to fall off in your Invincible review. Clearly it nearly happened again.
Thanks for going through this entire album. Please re-visit the Best Tool songs I'd love to get your take on them! The song Lateralus is a mathematical equation everyone loves 😏
Yo bro that calathea in top right corner is not looking too happy, you need to increase the humidity in your room.
Btw, I watched your whole fear inoculum series. Killer reaction videos dude. You seem to recognize a lot in the first listen.
Yeah man, it's freezing here. Basically no humidity! It needs some tlc!
I'd love to see your reaction/breakdown of any of Tool's other albums, even if it wasn't your first listen. I always appreciate your musical insight and enthusiasm! Looking forward to more Tool!
That rapid picking at 14 mins, Adam strums up and down between the strings
I hadn't listened to this album yet, so I'm really enjoying experiencing it for the first time along with you.
The time signature is in 21 for the standout guitar parts. Another great review. Keep them coming.
They recorded this at Henson Recording - Los Angeles, The Loft - Los Angeles and United Recording - Los Angeles. It was mastered in my home state of Maine, US by Bob Ludwig who also mastered 10,000 Days. Love the content man!
Cheers for the answer and kind words, dude! :)
I didn’t know about the link with 10,000 Days, such a powerful album. Thanks for the info.
Maybe it's just me, but the break after the first solo reminds me so much of Ted Nudgent's "Stranglehold ". Tool has made lyrical reference to Mr. Nugent before. "Got you in a Stranglehold baby!"
Really enjoyed your journey on this album! You can now listen to the whole album whenever you want to! Before any original Tool song reaction I suggest you check out Tool’s cover of ZEP No Quarter. Tool on!
You're just speaking truth. Every generation's music builds upon the last. Truth. Love the channel! 💙🌀💚
So refreshing to listen to someone who knows music so well. Tool need a good ear to appreciate what is going on.
I can hear LZ Achilles Last Stand influences in this tune along with Invincible! Love that you heard and mentioned it!
So obviously we don’t know each other. But I really enjoyed your content and felt like I had shared a musical experience with you. Thanks man. Subbed. Of course.
Love your appreciation of music and the way you feel it. You've pointed out a few things that I had not noticed before. There is something very similar in the way you experience music to another RUclips 'reaction' person - Key of Geebz. It would be super interesting to hear both of you talk music with your obvious knowledge and feel for the topic.
Have watched more than a few reactions, and honestly have enjoyed your series the most. You appreciate the music first without trying to solve the lyrical puzzle (which destroys many a reaction vid). Now you can research and re-enjoy them at your own pace. If you want to delve into further mathematical genius, try Lateralus by Tool next. Loudwire listed it as #1 on the Top 50 Best Metal Songs of the 21st Century, and a huge reason for it comes down the the math behind the song (from many angles). You may want to read up on the song first before listening to it (this won't spoil your reaction, only open it further as to the "why") as your ear will then be able to pick up sequencing details layered and throughout. Enjoy your journey!
Have to give Lateralus another spin soon, it's about 20 years since I first heard it, and a hell of a long time since I last heard it too! Thank you very much for the kind words, dude.
Have you listened to the Salival album? If you haven't the pushit version on that album will blow you away. And their cover of led Zeppelin no quarter..since you got a zep vibe at the beginning of this song
Haven't heard their version of no quarter. My favourite led zep song!
Oooooohhhhh...you are gonna dig it.
And if you haven't heard salival version of pushit, a song I am sure you are familiar with..it is TOTALLY different!
@@JWSoundworks2 omg listen to it!!
Definitely check that out, it's a must own for any tool fan. Got the box set on release, no regrets. Love the reactions by the way. My favorite band TOOL!!!!!!!
The held note at 13:34 is so Adam. Iconic.
They recorded the drums at Henson Recording Studios (formerly A&M Studios) where the Rolling Stones recorded Gimme Shelter and The Police recorded Reggatta de Blanc + a bunch of classic recordings.
I'VE BEEN BANGING ON ABOUT THIS AND MUSE!!! Thank you for justifying my existence 👍😂😂 Also old muse... Musically.... Pure Art. Still love the new stuff but my their old stuff made me feel things only Zep could make me feel
We, ad TOOL fans need more from you friend!
Legit!
#TOOL
Your a wealth of experience that we can all envy.
Cheers brother,
Much Love i love how you let the song play. Your pauses are appropriate and your comments are gold. I can listen to you analyze the song and still appreciate it as the song as well. I also notice you make the quality of the audio on par with what your hearing. Thank you
Great reactions to a great album. Hope you'd continue with more of Gojira's journey after this.
Holy Cow your so talented arencha?!!! Wow! I'd love to just have the investment you made in your music between the instruments n the CD's! I love yr TOOL reactions almost as much as your brogue my Irish brethren. See u on the nxt 1
The "7" in "7empest", the way I choose to see it, represents it being the 7th song on the album with lyrics (counting "Legion Inoculant"). Some could say that "Legion Inoculant" doesn’t count as a song with lyrics when the only lyrics are samples from the title track, but to that I just say keep in mind that throughout all of the different CD and vinyl versions TOOL left out "Litanie contre la Peur" but kept "Legion Inoculant"!
Phenomenal job once again. Absolute pleasure watching this 😊
Ahhhh HELLOOO MY PEOPLE!!! 👋🤘
Art indeed sir👌
glad i could watch you experience it my man
Early Muse is amazing.
I truly enjoy watching you give me different perspective on a band iv been enjoying for 30 years
Keep on
Cheers, Mike! 🤘
I'm not that familiar with Tool - a bit more so with A Perfect Circle, but I really enjoyed watching through this album with you and seeing you as a musician really appreciating it all.
Really like your Tool reactions, that's what brought me to your channel. I've been tool army since 93', when I heard Sober(Don't think you've done one that one yet, it's off their first full album Undertow, the live performance from the Reading festival is awesome), it blew me away. The bass line and the way Danny's drives the song forward with his high hat, it was unlike anything out at the time.
I hope you do more Tool, you won't be disappointed. Go back to Opiate, EP 92', you can see the development.
I would like to see you react to another favorite of my from the 90's. Helmet. Heavy bass and drum driven. Killer guitar riffs and great outro's. For a album reaction I suggest "Betty"... songs I suggest...1. Milquetoast...2. Unsung...3 In the meantime...4. Tic
Another must do is...Rage Against the Machine...Funk metal with one of the most unique guitarist ever, a rap like Singer and Anti establishment lyrics.
Keep up the good work....
Spiral out...keep going...
Thanks!
Truly great reaction videos. Nice to see someone else with the same emotional connection to the music as myself.
Few songs bring me to tears. This album had three, on the first listen!
Good Job! Well done.
Damn, the comments you get on your videos are just so good. You have some knowledgeable and insightful viewers and I think that is a complement to you.
Wow. Finished your reaction to all the songs on Fear Inoculum. I am so appreciative of your skill. You've helped me fall sickly into a very good place of passion for this album.
Thank you very much for your kind words. And I’m impressed you watched them all. Kudos to you!
It's such a joy watching you get your mind blown by these songs for the first time! You really said it best its not vanity, it's just art!
To me you have fantastic musical sensibilities. I'll for sure watch any Tool you do lol!
Danny usually records these in 1 go with no click! You can even hear them messing with him on the song Undertow trying to mess him up, at the end you can vaguely hear him call them assholes and throws a stick at em
Adam Jones is a genius in how he uses the guitar for textures instead of riffs. He lets Justin Chancellor handle the riffs, which he does with absolute brilliance. This entire album is outstanding.
I think it's also interesting that there's so little Maynard on the album. I can't help but wonder if he has become aware of the Tool reaction crowd, who so often focuses on him and Danny Carey, and decided to step back even more than he normally does to let the rest of the band take more of the spotlight. He doesn't really like it anyway.
Another excellent reaction. Thanks man 🤘🏽
Everytime I listen to this songs intro I can't stop thinking about the "L Theme" from the anime Death Note, they're quite similar and I enjoy that so much.
What a journey, thnx my man, I relived this álbum with you.
Whenerver you have a chance check, Eternity's Breath pt1 & 2 from Mahavishnu Orchestra one if not the best son ever made (for me at least)
I so enjoy your unique perspective coupled with your enthusiasm. You really enhance the experience and enjoyment of the song. As to 7empest itself, it is simply mesmeric. A true masterpiece. I think Shakespeare would have loved it and I’m sure the reference is intentional.
Would love to see you do the rest of the Tool albums. Loved all these reactions.
The absolute masters of TONE!
Your sound production comes across better than any other 'reaction' channel I've listened to. I don't know why, maybe you're using better sound equipment than others, but it is appreciated. Plus... I'm a sucker for an English accent.
Tool doesn't Math. Math does Tool.
I was waiting for this one
Can't wait for the "NO QUARTER" cover Reaction. 🤞✌
the fact that the lyrics are so relevant. as well as been a mind blowing track.

you need to see them live. awesome
the 8 min solo is mind bending thats for sure on to the next album you tool army member now
TOOL are a group of musical alchemists. 😉💚🌀💙
Love muse
Lets all pour one out for our boy Danny Carey who was a bad boy the other night. He’s normally a gentle giant I wonder what set him off that much 😬
What happend??
@@isnobodyreally102 google it, he got arrested at an airport for misdemeanor assault
They give us no details. I wanna know what that guy did to set him off.
Oh wow
@@crystalscolza1663 same, and we’ll probably never find out
If you want mathematical, check out Lateralus. There’s themes in the song that relate to the Fibonacci sequence
I will for sure come back and visit to watch you listen to this album multiple times. Much appreciation. I have given your music a try, but because I teach kids the happy, major shit every day…I need the darker, minor to balance. I’ll keep at it though! High five and thank you!
Try his band - Diamir
ruclips.net/video/WdcvyC0qBw8/видео.html
Hah, yeah, that does sound like a Muse riff.
Honestly, they're still a kickass band, even if they're more mainstream. Possibly the most creative mainstream band out there.
That intro is quite similar to King Crimson's Frame by Frame
@@insiddious That's one of Danny's major influences.
This music soothes my soul 😊
Hahahaha love the disclaimer pre vid 🤣
You are a treasure my man.
Great album reaction dude. Absolutely epic album.
Thank you, Jason! 🤘
Hold on !!’ Whooooo!
Its Danny carey who's the math nerd he's really into sacred geometry and when you listen to them the only way it makes sense kol
This is masterpiece and more tool song it masterpiece GOAT
Yes More!!!! 💥💥
Adam Jones when this song was getting made: "DUDE, I have so many sick riffs!!!!"
Danny: Hold my beer.
