HaYLOHAYLIE1 Fr man 😂 lived there all 2018 and it was... goofy. System of a Down called it toxic and Maynard called it a hopeless fucking hole. Accurate as hell. Tbh we need to abolish and abandon cities all together
I just wish one hardcore politician would be asked , "How are we going to fix Los Angeles, sir or ma'am?" And they'll respond.................... ....flush it down
The reason this song seems so different is because it's based on a classic comedy bit by the late Bill Hicks, in which California gets dropped away into the ocean, forming "Arizona Bay." He was friendly with Maynard and they were planning to incorporate his act as an opener before he died of cancer. This entire album was actually dedicated to his memory!
The entire album, "Aenima," is easily regarded as one of the greatest albums of the 90s... if not the entire rock genre. Beginning to end, this album is completely in-your-face. The song, "Aenima," is based on a comedy skit from deceased comedian Bill Hicks, who described his disdain for the Los Angeles culture. His sketch was a work in cynical irony, as he prayed for Armageddon to strike the area, and he was a fervent atheist.
Yeah. I love how this song contrasts their other stuff. Lateralus is about the utmost heights of human enlightenment.....but then this is basically saying mother nature will destroy you anyway
I really think he should keep Parabol/Parabola in the back pocket. We can get some more deep cuts out of Preston first and have that waiting any time. We all know his mind will explode. What about Eon Blue Apocalypse/the Patient or Rosetta Stoned? Still have the Grudge and Hush and Bottom waiting in the wings.
This is the 1st Tool song I ever heard. I love that lyric "Momma's gonna fix it all soon, Momma's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be". Meaning (at least to me) that Mother Nature will fix our mistakes & misuse of our planet thru natural disasters. Such a great song & album.
Although Tool uses an A in front of Enema it is essentially an Enema that he's talking about to flush everything away like an enema flushes out your bowels.
Æ - is an Old English Latin letter. The band is what we refer to as 'creative motherfuckers' and an enema is but half of the reference. mdiem's comment being also correct. God damn I love intelligence.
@@pauldavid601 "Ahhh, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone...All the shitty shows are gone, all the idiots screaming in the fucking wind are dead, I love it...leaving nothing but a cool, beautiful serenity called Arizona Bay. That's right, when L.A. falls in the fucking ocean and is flushed away, all it will leave is Arizona Bay." -Bill Hicks He's a relatively well respected comedian that used to open for the band.
I remember the first time I heard this track, back on the day it came out, and it instantly became my favorite song OF ALL TIME. And that was without the benefit of knowing what the FUCKing lyrics were about exactly. I think it was the rolling drum triplets that really knocked my socks off. 25 years later and the song is perhaps even more powerful considering the steady decline of our culture and the rise of climate change. Anyway, great reaction and go Seahawks!
Hell yeah, he's pissed. Pissed off at the world and the way things are. He's praying for mother nature to bare her wrath and "fix" everything by ending humanity. Dope song.
Props to you for your videos man. Been a tool fan a long time and I enjoy getting other people’s opinion on them . Keep it up there’s a lot more to explore with the singers other bands as well.
I have been a Tool fan since 1994. To see you listening to these songs for the first time is really cool. These albums and songs are a huge part of the soundtrack of our lives. Thanks for your enthusiasm and positive energy. This band has grown up with us and they have gone from rage to reflection to social consciousness. Enjoy the journey. Thanks again, much love.
Loving these, Tool, reactions! My all time favorite band! Tool's songs come in waves one after another. Not only are the vocals fantastic, but the instrumental side is profoundly amazing.
Parabola is what turned me from a casual tool fan into a hardcore tool fan. The song is just so fast and hard hitting in such a unique way. Must be paired with Parabol too. It’s like an extended intro and the way it’s meant to be listened to.
Watching you listen to these Tool songs for the first time feels just like I’m listening for the first time all over again! I thank you for that. Very cool.
This is James expressing his disgust for Los Angeles and his reference to Mom is him asking Mother Nature to do her thing talking about California's supposed great quake that will have them slipping off into the Pacific.
You seriously need to see them live. They put in the most amazing shows and never disappoint. As for the new album - we’ve been waiting for like 12 years, bro. It’s insane but I gotta believe they’re gonna slay it. Once again this was an absolute pleasure to see you experience another one for the first time. Always enjoyable. Peace. Edited to add: yes - Parabol/Parabola as well as the amazing Prison Sex and Stinkfist.
Do you always listen to their songs first here?? I would find it so hard to not just jam out for 4 hours looking for every Tool song I could get my hands on. Props if you do my man
I cant even put into words how much I appreciate your reaction videos, especially regarding Tool. You are absolutely awesome just for taking the time to really hear Tool. You can listen but that’s not enough. You feel this in your soul. Like many have said, check out Parabola, you won’t regret it. Also get into some more Led Zeppelin. If you like Dazed and Confused, I think you would really like “How Many more Times”. Another band that you don’t just listen to, you experience it. I appreciate it brother, don’t stop what you do✌️
I've noticed you've become a TOOL fan really quick yea!!!!there's is the music of the metal minded genius. Great reaction bro.... keep it coming big thumbs up...
Except "Sober", of course. Yeah, I didn't like anything (else) off of Undertow or Opiate until, oddly, I watched here on RUclips their performance at JC Dobbs back in '92. Sound quality sucked. Video quality sucked. But damn, that shit was RAW. I've never looked at those first two albums the same since. I had "Bottom" on perma-replay for months! I'm lucky I didn't go deaf!
@@Bramble451 I'm old. So I was 22 when undertow dropped. Just loved it. So I went to see them at first ave. In 93. Maynard looked exactly as he did in the video you spoke of. Simply captivating. I've seen them 12 times. I wish Maynard still performed out front. By the way, Preston seems to like cerebral Tool. Tre from "fish out of water" likes angry Tool". Watch Tre react to this song. He just about loses it. Fun shit. 🤘👽🤘 p.s. watch Tre react to bottom as well.
Tool is , By far , the best live band of all time. You can always expect the live performances to be as tight as the album and the visual artistry during the concerts are badass. Bucket list item should be to see them live at least once.
Maynard hates the shallowness that is LA which is why he lives in Arizona. When Cali goes into the ocean from earthquakes they need to learn to swim, because "Arizona Bay" is the new coast.
You had TWO "Hold on Braaaahhhh"'s!!!You definitely need to stick with their lyric videos. Listen to it again and take the lyrics in. I absolutely love your reactions and I smile when you smile. It's fantastic. Next time you select Tool, try Eulogy or Stinkfist. Also, I have a recommendation from MJK'S other band Puscifer. I swear..if you listen and react to the song "The Remedy", it will be on your Playlist!! Keep grinding!!!
I love your reaction to this. I could see you really taking the song in and listening. Tool is like no other, period. Their songs are deep and complex, even when they aren't being serious. I first heard Tool, the album Anemia, in 96', at a movie theater my friend worked at. She played the album over the sound system, and we were tripping on mescaline! What a ride! I was hooked ever since♥️🤘
You appreciating these guys music makes me happy and I’m thankful for your reactions to them *thumbs up* Tool is my favorite, Jambi is one of my favorites .. lol
love to see your expression when discovering new music. definitely need to peep maynards side projects the outsider by a perfect circle and conditions of my parole by puscifer.
Good work as always K A bit of advice...... When the new TOOL drops, don't do a song by song reaction. For your own experience as a being with receptors open, listen to it in it's entirety in your zone.Don't deny yourself that experience. Find something else to flog RUclips.
The song is about how he is done with California. The hipsters, Hollywood, the pretentiousness. When he says "moms gonna fix it, moms gonna put it back it ought to be" hes talking about mother nature and earthquakes and tidal waves breaking off Cali into the ocean so Arizona now would be the coast hence the "learn to swim" line and "see you in Arizona bay". Great song, LOVE all of your reactions.. You are THE best to watch keep it up! If i may make a request/suggestion it would be the Foo Fighters (the last real rock band out now) and i recommend this song and video. Deep lyrics and great song and video! ruclips.net/video/YDVAQI-4lto/видео.html
I've been a massive tool fan since I was 12 I'm now almost 36 and never tire of listening to any of their stuff, welcome to the best music you'll ever hear!!!
Not that you need another fan telling you about tool, but Tool time line basically follows: Early years/90s: Opiate and Undertow Albums. These 2 albums are explicit and dark. Especially undertow. They take on subjects of atheism, censorship, and working through suffering. Mid Late 90s: Aenima, which shares a lot of themes with undertow, but you also see Maynard and Tool start to steer away from that "darkness", and make points about being more self-aware. They kind of use rage as a fulcrum for healing. More recent albums from this century: Lateralus and 10,000 days, where most of the songs you've been listening and reacting to. These albums are mostly about healing, altruism, and moderation. Please do some Nine Inch Nails. Not a lot of reaction videos out there for them, but they're a huge band. Try Head Like a Hole, Survivalism (very unique, nothing else sounds like this), and Perfect Drug (best drum solo, EVER). Keep going, brother!
I can't believe I haven't seen "Head Like a Hole" yet on any of these reaction channels, although "Closer" has been done several times. "Head Like a Hole" is a must! And I think "Perfect Drug" is criminally underappreciated. Including the video.
Shay Lyman there different styles. Tool is obviously more advanced in the musical technique. But nine inch nails is I think a little too different to tool. I love them both equally, but tool is definitely more advanced. I love nine inch nails for the rawness of Trent reznors voice and emotional power it brings. Tool has a different kind of sound compared to nin
The best thing about being in your position, feeling the way you do about the band and Maynard, is you have hours and hours of music from them/him to discover. Good stuff, man. Keep it up, you’re killing it.
This is, and has been for many years, HANDS DOWN my favorite song. Period. Bar none. I love when people find Tool. I wish I could go back and experience that "first impression" moment again.
Love it man, well done :). Just a little context, this album came out in 1996 either during or right after the band had lived in LA for quite a few years. I think the industry and even the city as a whole left a really bitter taste in their mouth and this was just a little catharsis. Edit: Well shit I just read down below this was actually a representation of the Bill Hicks routine which makes a ton of sense lol. But it was my original take from years ago so I'll leave it. Either way cheers dude!
Give his other band a try, A Perfect Circle. Weak and Powerless or Pet would be good ones to start with. I also just wanna say I was listening to some System of a Down on here, came across your reaction to Sugar and I've basically watched all your rock reacts in a day or so (starting on the rap ones today, lol). Seeing you discover music that I've known for so long that I've almost taken it for granted, it really gives me a new appreciation for these songs And you're hilarious and have a such a great musical insight, I'm a Faithful subscriber already
Bro I’ve now watched quite a few of your tool reaction videos and I’m pretty sure they have all had a FLAWLESS VICTORY 🤘 and I’m pretty sure the rest will to
I remember buying this the day it came out & almost 30 years later it still sounds just as amazing as it did then 🤘🏻🤤🖤I was 24-25 & my neighbors knew this well 😉

"It sounds like somebody pissed them off."
You mean the Entire Human Race?
No just mainly L.A. and that was 20+ years ago and LA has only got worse I wish Maynard would write Aənima part 2
HaYLOHAYLIE1 Fr man 😂 lived there all 2018 and it was... goofy. System of a Down called it toxic and Maynard called it a hopeless fucking hole. Accurate as hell. Tbh we need to abolish and abandon cities all together

salad man I was going to comment about that also.
Mom- Mother Earth
Learn to swim
Flush it all away
salad man preach it brother.
Yes. And Bill Hicks is featured at the beginning of the last song of the album “Third Eye”
Whoops, I just said the same thing before I saw this comment.
The more I know.
The entire album, "Aenima," is easily regarded as one of the greatest albums of the 90s... if not the entire rock genre.
Beginning to end, this album is completely in-your-face.
The song, "Aenima," is based on a comedy skit from deceased comedian Bill Hicks, who described his disdain for the Los Angeles culture. His sketch was a work in cynical irony, as he prayed for Armageddon to strike the area, and he was a fervent atheist.

tool isnt music, tool is a religion...
Danny Meeker agreed brother
Probably my favorite album ever
Agreed! Bill Hicks snippet at the beginning of Third Eye is spot on too
“One great big festering neon distraction. I’ve got a suggestion to keep you all occupied.” My favorite part.
Learn to swim!
Yeah. I love how this song contrasts their other stuff. Lateralus is about the utmost heights of human enlightenment.....but then this is basically saying mother nature will destroy you anyway
I love that description. "One great big festering neon distraction." It's perfect.
Learn to swim bitches!
@@vinchenzo2502 no just California but yea
This song is about "Mother Earth" spitting California off into the Pacific Ocean.
"See ya down in Arizona Bay."
You are missing a great song from Tool “Parabol/Parabola”
Carlos Martinez yes possibly Maynard’s most impressive and haunting vocals
Best quality version is here.

Followed by Third Eye?

What about Eon Blue Apocalypse/the Patient or Rosetta Stoned? Still have the Grudge and Hush and Bottom waiting in the wings.
Yeah Maynard was PISSED in this one
lots of anger in these lyrics
Damien INSANE-O I read up on this song and I believe its because the band saw a bunch of Scientology members and were pissed off with them
TOOL is such an emotional ride you can't compare it to any other artist.
I can literally feel it in my chest to the point it sometimes alters my breathing a bit.
comparable to pink floyd in many ways
Radiohead and Floyd only two I can think of that do this as well
The music Gods ARE PLEASED with this one. You’ve just LEVELED UP. 🔥 💯
Haylon TX fatality!

Although Tool uses an A in front of Enema it is essentially an Enema that he's talking about to flush everything away like an enema flushes out your bowels.
Also a play on words with Anima - female spirit (Mom / Mother Nature).
Basic tool trivia
Æ - is an Old English Latin letter.
The band is what we refer to as 'creative motherfuckers' and an enema is but half of the reference.

Tool The Grudge next please. You're the goat of of reaction videos
The Grudge is Tools best imo
its def. up there
This is great! best reaction channel I’ve seen and I’ve seen em all
Watching you listen to these Tool songs for the first time feels just like I’m listening for the first time all over again! I thank you for that. Very cool.
I gotta recommend Eulogy by tool for your next tool reaction
I second this one
I like Pushit from Salival. That gets me every time!
Tool - Prison Sex
Black Sabbath - Symptom Of The Universe
Mr Bungle - Carousel
Eulogy is my favorite
Mr. Bungle!
Never listen to tool before thanks I like it
Sharnakay Chambers if you are interested in tool, i suggest listening to "Sober" "Schism" "46 and 2" and "Stinkfist".
Ok cool thanks let me go check those out
let me know if u like those songs
Ok will do
Sober gives me goosebumps wow
I really enjoy your reaction videos because you very clearly love music and often comment on the transitions while having a ton of fun
I watch lots of reaction videos and Preston, you’re by far my favorite. Keep up the variety bruh, good work.
This is James expressing his disgust for Los Angeles and his reference to Mom is him asking Mother Nature to do her thing talking about California's supposed great quake that will have them slipping off into the Pacific.
Learn to swim
Actually it was inspired by Bill Hicks
twas both Bill Hicks and his experiences
I love how you said James like he's your nephew or something lol lolol sorry that just made me laugh

HOLY SHIT BEST ONE YET KUDOS FOR DOING THIS
Good to see how genuine music is still being appreciated.
Good work as always K
A bit of advice......
When the new TOOL drops, don't do a song by song reaction.
For your own experience as a being with receptors open, listen to it in it's entirety in your zone.Don't deny yourself that experience.
Find something else to flog RUclips.
I do agree soooo much on that... really that much indeed!
The song is about how he is done with California. The hipsters, Hollywood, the pretentiousness. When he says "moms gonna fix it, moms gonna put it back it ought to be" hes talking about mother nature and earthquakes and tidal waves breaking off Cali into the ocean so Arizona now would be the coast hence the "learn to swim" line and "see you in Arizona bay". Great song, LOVE all of your reactions.. You are THE best to watch keep it up! If i may make a request/suggestion it would be the Foo Fighters (the last real rock band out now) and i recommend this song and video. Deep lyrics and great song and video! ruclips.net/video/YDVAQI-4lto/видео.html
Im not sure who you are explaining this for tbh... if someone didnt get it he for sure issnt ready for tool :D
He's talking about L.A. specifically, not California generally.
Look deeper
I don’t like hipsters neither
It's a tribute to bill hicks Arizona bay
This is my new favorite person on RUclips!
Preston: it sounds like somebody pissed them off

Shay Lyman there different styles. Tool is obviously more advanced in the musical technique. But nine inch nails is I think a little too different to tool. I love them both equally, but tool is definitely more advanced. I love nine inch nails for the rawness of Trent reznors voice and emotional power it brings. Tool has a different kind of sound compared to nin
Tool does a cover of Led Zeppelin's "no quarter" check it out bro...you know my taste in music 🎼
Matty Perry that's from their live album Salival it also has my favorite version of Pushit.
If he does No Quarter, it should definitely be the original version from Zeppelin
Jason Allen he should do both and compare them both
The best thing about being in your position, feeling the way you do about the band and Maynard, is you have hours and hours of music from them/him to discover. Good stuff, man. Keep it up, you’re killing it.
This is, and has been for many years, HANDS DOWN my favorite song. Period. Bar none.
I love when people find Tool. I wish I could go back and experience that "first impression" moment again.
Does anyone know if he's done Stinkfist?
Preston do Stinkfist if you haven't yet please!
Richard Hahn stinkfistic
Haha, been waitin bro. Their older stuff is pretty anygry man. Cant wait for some reactions off Undertow. Crawl Away.
and Bottom, I feel that is such an underrated song.
I had "Bottom" on repeat for months! Although just for Tool at their angriest, can't really top "Jerk-Off".
They’re/we’re pissed about a lot of things. Love that you ‘get’ this Preston! ❤️👏
Dude love your vids, good to see people appreciating the greatness of Tool, you really have to do a reaction video to Ticks and leeches
Love it man, well done :). Just a little context, this album came out in 1996 either during or right after the band had lived in LA for quite a few years. I think the industry and even the city as a whole left a really bitter taste in their mouth and this was just a little catharsis.
Edit: Well shit I just read down below this was actually a representation of the Bill Hicks routine which makes a ton of sense lol. But it was my original take from years ago so I'll leave it. Either way cheers dude!
Its both.
Give his other band a try, A Perfect Circle. Weak and Powerless or Pet would be good ones to start with.
I also just wanna say I was listening to some System of a Down on here, came across your reaction to Sugar and I've basically watched all your rock reacts in a day or so (starting on the rap ones today, lol). Seeing you discover music that I've known for so long that I've almost taken it for granted, it really gives me a new appreciation for these songs
And you're hilarious and have a such a great musical insight, I'm a Faithful subscriber already
Bro I’ve now watched quite a few of your tool reaction videos and I’m pretty sure they have all had a FLAWLESS VICTORY 🤘 and I’m pretty sure the rest will to
Genius, the last 3rd of the song with the drums and base.................just exquisite !
They have a few more tracks like this, such as Ticks and Leeches
bout damn time lmao where all my aenima posters at
THE DREAM IS REAL
General Sherman ive be bugging for this reaction for about 2 months now lol
same lol
I remember buying this the day it came out & almost 30 years later it still sounds just as amazing as it did then 🤘🏻🤤🖤I was 24-25 & my neighbors knew this well 😉
Good luck with seeing them or that new record you’re so hope filled for.
