This song has the best build up EVER in my opinion. I can't wait to get to "overwhelmed as one would be , placed in my position...." God, it's incredible
Yes
The pure comedy and subtle seriousness of the song is pure genius
As all Tool music, this part is abolsutely timeless. It's almost as if the music shouldn't work, it's as if it where played in slow motion. Alien, sci-fi, eternal, ROCK.
"I forgot my pen" is one of the best Maynard lines ever :-D
It's definitely up there with "my country boner won't go down"
So many good ones. I like... "If when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay.."
"Me? They picked me? And I didn't even graduate from fucking highschool"
Shit the bed again
"10000 days in the fire is long enough,
you're going home"
This song has the most time signature and tempo changes of any song I've learned. I can play the notes and i got the timing...getting the effects and tone down on the guitar is downright impossible. starts in 12/4..then 4/4 & 5/8 alternating, then 6/4 for a bit before it switches to 11/8 for a bit, then has a weird shift with 2 bars of 9/8 to 4/4 and back to 9/8 before a single bar of 7/4 to continue with 5/4 for a few bars, a 6/4 rest, and then 11/8 for a while. Then the solo has danney carrey doing a 3/4:5/4 polyrhythym (and brings in a 4/4 halfway thru just for good measure.) all while the guitar does a solo in 5/4 timing. The bass is doing that polyrhythym as well. This song somehow all fits together and is perfectly mathematically sound. A musical masterpiece.
It doesn’t start in 12/4
I shat the bed once in 1/1 timing..
you need to hear tommy the cat by primus
You just need to love Tool my first song I learned on guitar was the pot and I'm ruined lol
That part with Danny and Justin doing that 3/4:5/4 polyrhythm is one of the most genius things I've ever heard. How they managed to make something so insanely weird and complex sound so insanely groovy at the same time, is beyond me.
I think 9:57 - 10:35 is one of the best parts in any song I've ever heard
That with the build-up starting at 9:32 is amazing.
@@alexandersalmas21 Orgasmic moment :3
Easily. There are so many things about that section that are otherworldly...
Everyone trying to write the most heartfelt shit ever but when he says that he forgot his pen I feel the most emotional. Amazing altogether.
I always get chills and goosebumps at that part
“That’s a wicked baseline.” Indeed it is, sir.
been a fan of Tool for a while now and this song has recently become one of my all time favs from them
the composition is superb
MetallicOpeth The build up to “Overwhelmed as one would be set in my position” is soooooooo good!
Agree. Was a casual fan since Undertow. Fell in love after hearing Salival Third Eye. But Rosetta Stoned...absolute masterpiece. Pushed me to delve more into classical and jazz, just so I could find compositions as equally astonishing.
Yeah, I didn't like this one at first, but I get something more from it on every listen. Cool uses of 11/8 (I think?) time. The climax is very cathartic and weirdly beautiful though. Maynard's voice just soars.
kylestyyle987 It's a really complex song. Lots of sections and changes. I needed a lot of listens to get the flow of the song. Once you get it, it's fucking amazing. Justin's bassline during the solo is probably one of the most intricate things they've written.
Born To Hula yeah, the Salival version of Third Eye is grand. The intro with Timothy Leary with ambience created live 👌
The band wouldn't admit it but RUclips has been great for Tool! It's the only way to hear Tool if you don't own the album. And Tool is one of the most popular and uploaded bands in RUclips history. The most popular reaction channels are the ones that do Tool reactions their subs triple within weeks. They're going from 50 subs to 10k subs overnight
They are on RUclips and Spotify now 😂
TOOL ARMY AGREES⚒️♾️
It's kind of sad though. I don't want them to be popular like metallica. They are such a special band.
I never understood why people always recommend new listeners of Tool to listen to this song. There's a shit-ton of stuff going on lyrically, rhythmically and harmony wise and unless you're familiar with the general motifs in their music and Maynard's sense of humor, you'll have a really hard time appreciating this song. This is the song you should be listening to after you've heard a couple of albums from Tool, not your 2nd (technically 3rd) song.
Much better songs to introduce somebody to Tool are: Jambi, Vicarious, Stinkfist, Aenema, Forty Six & Two or Opiate.
also, the pot
@@kunxv15 The Pot was my first TOOL song and I'm very grateful it was as I wouldn't be able to appreciate them as much as I do if I would've started out with stuff like Rosetta Stoned or Lateralus. Need to figure out what to look for in their tracks to get the full experience
@@melioraprequelle7553 for me i started listening to the whole lateralus album, after a month or so of continous listening during my commute, finally the pieces fit
Exactly, this one of their most esoteric and complex songs to appreciate, I used to feel it’s one of their weakest in the beginning, now I think it’s one of the strongest most interesting pieces.
I first heard Sober a few years ago and I didn't really like it but then recently RUclips suggested I watch the video to Vicarious and after hearing it I had to look up the album. I have to say, Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned is one of my all time favorite songs now.
Yeah as others have said it's about a guy taking DMT and tripping BALLS imagining an alien abduction experience. Just a fun song.
It was so real... like I woke up in wonderland
You need to hear Reflection by Tool, it`s not so heavy but is beautiful and it has the melody you want
Marian McGregor But with Disposition first 👌
Yes!!!
One of their very best out of a catalog of mind bending music!
When i forget to buy tool concert tickets
*g o d d a m n s h i t t h e b e d*
Lost keys comes right before it, part of the song, ah well, just keep in mind there are a few Tool pieces they broke up into multiple tracks
CYBER DEMON yeah, well, I don't know that, eh? When suggesting reactions, if there's an integral part of the song that's another track, pleases include that in the suggestion! Thanks for commenting, Jim 😜
Jim Newstead for sure my man, love you are digging these guys, pretty sure they broke the pieces up because they are super long and their albums would be like 5 songs each...ah the heck with it heres my list in no particular order except the first one because its a request 😁 they are all pretty long but you strike me as someone who will suck up every second
Wings for Marie/10000days
Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned
Parabol/Parabola
Intermission/jimmy
Disposition/Reflection/Triad (known unofficially as the Holy Trinity)
I think those are the ones, no doubt someone will jump in with the others, looks like Jambi and Vicarious have a large amount of requests already (separate songs not trying to confuse) fantastic! Happy song hunting from across the pond!
Jim Newstead Postscript, i CANNOT escape the Royal Wedding and as a citizen of the Commonwealth you are, like, .000000001 percent to blame for that! 😉🤘
CrAzYCaM 8 unrelated? Its the same tune played with different music for jimmy, not a necessity but it its definitely related, and Wings and 10000days literally say Part 1 and Part 2, you CAN do 10000days without Wings, ive done it countless times, but thats ridiculous for a first listen especially a reaction channel of someone who clearly appreciates the “art” part of music
CrAzYCaM 8 well the musicians themselves put the music there for a reason, but I guess you know better 😁🌀 to each their own my ToolBro
this is really the deep end of Tool. Something that really shouldnt be listened too until you are used to Tool and ready for a journey. Listen to 46&2 it is a great intro song
Well said. 46&2 is something in the middle: you know it's Tool, but not that much. A kind of half way from a conventional hard rock/metal song and Tool. In the end, if you like Rosetta Stoned, you like them totally.
Rubbish. It was the first Tool song Iiked
He’s just too hungry to enjoy the trip.
His mind was in his stomach.
100000000% agreed
Tool - Vicarious, the one that got me into Tool and stilll my favourite song of all time :D
UncoolShrimp for me it was eulogy
Vicarious was my first too, but it definitely isn’t my favorite.
Brandon Hinrichs, eulogy doesn’t get enough praise for how amazing it is
My first was Sober in 1993! It's not near they best but it's one of my favourite after 27 years! First love! Tool forever! 🤟
Of all the Tool crescendos to epic climax, "Overwhelmed as one would be..." is the one that still completely melts me
This is one of their more experimental songs. It's better once you know the story behind it. It's almost a comedic track.
Just became a fan of your Tool reactions. I've been a fan of theirs since 93. Love to see people reacting to them, thanks for doing it.
I've watched a lot of Tool reaction videos and everyone is left lost for words. Love it!
Poly-rhythms for days on the drums.
Also, sorry about that, dropping you into the deep end for your second Tool song :)
No worries fella - it's all good :)
If The Grudge is where you liked to be, then I'd highly recommend then just continuing with the Lateralus album. Next song is The Patient. There is a small fill in between The Grudge and The Patient called Eon Blue Apocalypse, which is pretty cool. The whole album was composed to be listened to all the way through without any breaks, kind of like Dark Side of the Moon. Will await this reaction sometime next week, maybe.
For how many days?...10,000 maybe? ;)
this song is like a PhD class when you're still in grade school.
towards the end of the song the drums guitars and vocals are all simultaneously in different time signatures. crazy!
Edit: also this song is about someone who has taken DMT and trips the meeting with the Aliens giving him the meaning of life. apparently lots of people have this same trip when taking DMT
Vicarious and Lateralus are my favourite tracks can't wait for your reactions
I’m so glad you chose this one. I love this one and it cracks me up every time I listen to it and the music is awesome. A bad trip turned into something great.
Just a shame about some of the lyrics, a few mistakes. "like the time Dave floated away" as in Space Odyssey
And "Bob help me" near the end, in the typical placement of "God".
Also "sound like Peanuts parents," not "look," as in the WOP WOPWOP WOP instead of using actual words.
I always thought "Bob" was a reference to Twin Peaks and the character Bob in the show being an Alien
I know right..... Why would someone take the time to make a lyric video, and not triple check the lyrics they use???
I believe Jambi would be something that would resonate more with the vibe that got you into The Grudge, Jim.
On Rosetta Stoned, if you want to dive deeper, I suggest hopping over to the johnkew channel. I find it easier to see all the complexities in the song when I'm watching him play. His second channel, johnkewdrums, has a 20-minute analysis of the time signatures when he was studying to do the cover. He has one about The Grudge as well.
Don't think it's about alien abduction, think it's about a DMT trip.
DMT, Ayuasca, mescaline or acid... Might capture it better than any piece of art other than Salvador Dali
I heard you do Ticks and Leeches, and was gonna comment "DO ROSETTA STONED," but then of course, seen this video as a suggested play, so cheers. Love this song. As a huge fan of Karnivool, Tool, Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, etc, I knew you'd love it. Cheers mate!
Lateralus by Tool is based on the Fibonacci sequence. The time signatures and lyrics all relate to spirals and the golden ratio.
There's an interesting "lyric video" for Lateralus on RUclips that also plays with the idea of the song's timing associations with the Fibonacci. It's a fun listen/read. ruclips.net/video/wS7CZIJVxFY/видео.html .
...and because of this, the pretentious ones who say they're TooL fans rave about how great of a song Lateralus is. If people knew nothing about TooL and just listened to the music, the majority of people would rate Lateralus as a middle of the pack song. There really are so many better choices.
“All you know about me’s what I sold you, dumb fuck.”
Are you OGT back from ‘92 from the first EP as well? Honestly, the nerve you must have to call anyone else pretentious.
2catgumbo Your perception of where the song ranks in Tool’s catalog is beside the point. You can’t expect to call one subset of Tool fans pretentious and while acting all holier than thou and not get called out for being a hypocrite. I don’t think Lateralus is Tool’s best song, but to suggest that fans who do think it is are somehow inferior to you is the height of arrogance.
What the hell are you talking about? Lighten up!
“ Sunkist and Sudafed, gyroscopes and infrared” has got to be, poetically, one of the best lyrical statements I have ever heard in music. Not sure why, but it’s just so satisfying to say!
Took me a few listens to fully appreciate this one. It's especially enjoyable knowing it based on real events.
Tool flat out says in a interview that their music isn’t something you can just tap your feet to. They want you to experience their music . Most of their music will put you into a hypnotic state of mind and send you on a journey if you let it. I suggest Aenima . Very hypnotic trance kinda track. And you will be in a different place in you mind.
Currently learning this on bass. I love the epic nature of the song and operatic vocals contrasted with rediculous lyrics.
So did you manage to learn that?
@@franmartinez3317 Come on man, 2 years ain't enough
I love watching your reaction videos more than any other coming from somebody who understands music and really appreciates the effort put into the production and helps me understand it
'Right in two' is an incredible tool song with poignant lyrics to boot
Ticks and leaches blow your mind
When I saw them preform this song live it sounded so different. Maynard sounded like he was rapping the entire first couple of minutes. It was confusing but in retrospect it was very amazing
Keep going man! You're in for a ride. A brief primer:
Opiate/Undertow: Established their unique blend of crunchy/heavy guitars, primal intensity and intelligent lyrics and concepts. Songs of note: Opiate, Prison Sex, Bottom, Sober, Undertow, Flood
Aenima: Maintained the crunchy heaviness and intensity, but evolved a step further. Songs became a little more complex both structurally and conceptually, a little deeper emotionally, and longer in length. More melodies were incorporated, interesting/weird segues were introduced, and overall, everything sounded just a little bit more mature and epic. Songs of note: Stinkfist, Eulogy, H., 46 & 2...well, shit. Just listen to the whole album.
Lateralus: The next step in Tool's evolution. While still deep, raw, and emotional, this time it felt less angsty and angry, and more about positivity and self-improvement/enlightenment. Song concepts explored different emotional states of being a human: holding a grudge, staying patient in the midst of adversity, communicating to save a relationship, being grateful to be alive and staying present, exploring outwardly to discover and enrich your life, etc. The whole thing had a little more of an Eastern feel. Alex Grey's artwork was introduced (as you saw on The Grudge). Almost like an out-of-body experience more than listening to a music album. A complete epic, and IMHO, Tool at their best. Songs of note: The Grudge, The Patient, Parabol/Parabola, Lateralus, Disposition/Reflection/Triad
10,000 Days: Seemed to build off the Lateralus sound, while revisiting some of the elements in their back catalogue ("The Pot" had a bit of a "Prison Sex" vibe, for example. And "Rosetta Stoned" was reminiscent of "Third Eye" off the Aenima album.) To me, this felt like more of a side-step than a progression in their evolution, but still a very solid release - highlighted by the lead singer's Magnum Opus to his late mother, "10,000 Days/Wings for Marie." Probably the one you'll get the most requests on simply because it's the most recent. Songs of note: Vicarious, Jambi, 10,000 Days/Wings for Marie, The Pot
Cheers!
"Holy fuckin shit!!" Is what I said when I first heard this song
Next time I would go for Schism or Parabol/Parabola.
He's already heard Schism, but definitely Parabol/Parabola
This song is actually part 2 of a 2 part song. The previous song on the album 10,000 Days, "Lost Key (Blame Hoffman)", is the introduction to "Rosetta Stoned."
The song itself is from the perspective of a person on an "trip". The beginning is him being able to vividly describe what he experienced during the beginning stages of the trip.
As the timing signatures and pace of the song change, so do the characters attitudes towards himself and his current reality.
The part of the song where he mentions "$#!% the bed..." has a double meaning. In some older cultures, the phrase "s*** the bed" is in reference to forgetting to do something, or "dropping the ball" so to speak. But due to the persons current reality, one or more of the instances it is in a literal sense.
I suggest listening to both songs together for a broader experience on this song. It's nice to see someone discovering this band and these songs for the first time.
I’d say part 3. Lipan Conjuring makes me think of a shaman guiding someone into a trip.
YOU SHOULDVE LISTENED TO LOST KEYS BEFORE THIS SONG AS IT IS THE INTRO FOR ROSETTA STONED
Tool is incredible!! You either get them or have no appreciation for genius!
goes same for Primus imo
Tool is the best band ever its my favorite band
@@dewmaster3944 APC comes in second :)
This song is freakin amaziiiiing! It is so exeptional, cause on one hand, this sounds like tool, but on the other, it's different than the other tool songs. This has been my ringtone fot the past 2 years and still gives me shivers 😍😍😍
You must be very sick man or pure genius to write that kind of lyrics! I'll chose second! J.M.K. is a freaking genius!
Tool embodies the human experience In their music. It's bloody fantastic. You really should check out the track;
Right In Two.
By the way, Gojira rules.
If you want Melody, listen to 'reflection', 'the patient', or 'lateralus'.
I keep coming back to this one now and then. Your reaction to this is just hilarious throughout the entire song. Amazing stuff :D
hahaha I watched this when he uploaded it and I still can't believe he just happened to listen to this for his second encounter.
I turely enjoy watching your love for music. I highly recommend listening 46 and 2. One of my favorites. Cant wait to see that video.
Jumped right into the deep end from the start. This is one of their songs that, to understand it well, you have to take weeks to digest each part, break it down, especially Danny Carey’s polyrhythms. If you look at it as each part, and realize that Carey is playing 3 different time signatures at once, then you’ll understand how phenomenal of a song this one is
Not that they ever fall short, but the bass lines on this album are all especially good. I think I read somewhere that when they were writing Justin had a lot of stuff he brought to the table first this time around.
Its absolutely about an acid trip. When you do acid you believe that you get this great knowledge but after you have come down and try and remember it you cant.
Dmt not LSD-25
@@jaytee8363 or both
You're reaction made me lol. People at work wondered what I was joyfully chuckling at. Thanks. :)
Swiss triplets over polyrhythms....EPIC
The song is take on Bill Manspeaker going out to see the integratron in Landers California. When he went to Tool's rehearsal spot, He told crazy elaborate stories with fear in his voice about being abducted by aliens, talking about U.F.O's, and jumping all over while kind of being "scatter brained" trying to explain it. This all quoted by Danny Carey and members on a RUclips clip. Maynard then wrote a song about his way he interpreted the encounter.
My view: The song was Maynard's take of the whole ordeal which seems to hint a little sarcasm at someone's psychobabble rhetoric and or prophet like persona of quite possibly a hallucinogenic induced experience
This song wears me out every time. So glad Intension follows the brutal beating afterward :)
Rosetta Stoned is one of my favorites. and you forgot the intro....
kingbassk83 I didn't forget it, I didn't know it had one!
Jim Newstead correct. you can't forget what you you don't know. i watch a lot of tool reaction. you are the one with most knowledge about music. love your reactions.
He is talking about Lost Keys
one hell of a acid trip!!!!!
This was on their setlist last year on their 2023 Fall Tour. First time seeing them live. Maynard still has the same endurance. (Fun Fact: Danny's Bass Drum's are so low and loud live it almost restarts your heartbeat to his rhythmic time signatures.)
really have to listen to this song at least a few more times to really appreciate it. been listening to tool for over twenty years and this song at least dozens of times. it's complicated yet simple at the same time.
10000 days + wings for Marie if you want to have the feels
I think you'd be surprised how much melody is actually in this once you listen to it a few more times. Especially in the bass part and percussion!
Damn that part makes me feel like I'm in outer space
Jim... thank you! The best song, in my opinion, by TOOL, on one of the best channels on RUclips. Keep up the incredible work and thank you for all of your contributions, especially to this amazing band.
Wow, thanks!
That was a pretty intense choice for only your second song. You should probably check out their more accessible songs like The Pot and 46&2.
i'm knackered XD
This is Maynards humor in song form.
dont worry man, you jumped head first into the deep end on this one. This is one of those songs that takes some working up to. I would suggest something like 46&2, Stinkfist, Jambi, etc...the more "radio friendly" stuff to start off. Then I would take it album by album. They evolve A LOT from album to album. Their attitude, complexity, and sound all change drastically as they go on. Their music really is a very good representation of their state of mind at specific points in their life, and grows as they do. Although sometimes they do just like to fuck with the audience a bit lol.
opiateofthemasses preach bro, this ones a tall order right away, hell this wasnt even on my radar as best songs on the Album let alone their catalog, but it can grow on you, its just so out there its a shock to the system, so many better tracks display their brilliance in a more pleasing, i believe he used “melodic” way, Vicarious and Jambi will rock him good and Wings/10000days....well you know 👊🌀
@@cyberdemon1702 🎢🌀🔚🌀➿
“Ride the spiral to the end”
And Spiral Out
Must have been some WILD AS TRIP
People that have done psychadelics like DMT describe having experiences that are remarkably similar to those described in the typical alien abduction stories we've all heard.
Love your tool reactions my friend keep it up!!
Shout out to Maynard for the Uncle Martin - My Favorite Martian reference! 🤘🏻
My favorite part is Justin and Danny from 7:04 to 8:14! My current overall favorite part of any tool song... I say 'current' because they've been my favorite band since the mid-90s and my favorite song rotates all the time.
For a new Tool fan, this would be one of the last songs I would recommend. This one takes a number of listens to really appreciate along with a lot of the 10,000 days songs. Have to review 46&2, Jimmy, Pushit, Eulogy, Lateralus, TIcks and Leeches, Jambi, Vicarious....too many to list really. It's really interesting to see them being discovered for the first time by so many. Truly one of the most unique an talented bands you will ever here. So different, bands cannot even copy them.
From what I understand, its about a crazy story from Bill of Green Jello tripping in the desert
The drums in this song are fucking insanely great
The message in this was just him taking something that a buddy of his who was tripping balls at the time was telling him a story of. Maynard took his pen and he ran with it
8:22 when it kicked in, it made me shit the bed.
Please check out Reflection. Literally begging. It's such a beautiful piece of work.
Don't beg!
All tool songs are a beautiful piece of work
That bass line at 8:23.... as good as it gets!!!!
The Patient, nuff said!
This song is one of the greatest creations in music (aside from other Tool songs lmao, I agree that this one isn't quite as good as others), but it contains indepth story, comedy, tragedy, spontaneous intricate design and flawless execution, and delivers what it's trying to deliver in such a profound way. Sucks that you didn't listen to the intro "Lost Keys (Blame Hoffman), but so glad you got the chance to experience it!
Yes!
I enjoyed your reaction with the grugde (problaby my favorite tool song), if you liked it I recommend you to listen songs from the album lateralus, like the patient, schism, parabol/parabola, lateralus, reflection... Enjoy tool, there is a Lot of good songs, when you finish the album lateralus you can then listen Ænima and 10,000 days, and then with undertow and opiate, but I recommend you that order because of your reaction with the grugde and rosetta stoned.
Psychedelic experience with humor.
Rosetta stoned isnt one of my fav tool song. Id go with jambi man. Jambi is amazing
TheBlackiwid Ive gone through phases wherr almost EVERY song has been my favorite at some point, including rosetta stoned. But now ive kinda settled and disposition/reflection/triad, jambi, amd 4 degrees are prolly on top for me.
Agreed =p
The only part that is amazing in Rosetta Stoned is the crescendo after the tribal drums/baseline/eerie guitar part. That is one of the best Crescendo and harmony ever the way maynard sings it.
Jambi yep
Fckgogle Pluss I agree with you man. Jambi should be his next listen.
"SUNKISS THE SUDAFED"!!!!!YEAH BABY!!!
I always thought of this song as about a bad acid trip.
Kevin Hill It’s about DMT
when you're able to count time signature this song could make you cry lol... swiss army triplets cut with 4/4 right hand... 3 different time sign at the same time ... it's change and change and change. Crazy polyrythm... wow
Do people realise what is going on during "don't know, won't know" it just sounds like open strumming in time with each word of "don't" and "know" but actually its so much more delightful than it first sounds to the naked ear
From 10,000 Days, you may want to take a look at Jambi or Right in Two. Also, do some reading up on the singer Maynard's mother and the story that runs through his output..it might give you more grasp when it comes to tackling 'Jimmy' and 'Wings For Marie/10,000 Days'
just do a full stream of listening to Aenima and Lateralus
kthanks
MetallicOpeth maybe..... One day!
lol.. the amount of amazing songs on those albums...specially Aenima, wow his head would explode. Or he'd just enter a constant psychedelic trip. Let's not lose him.
drop acid, put lateralus on repeat and spiral out, keep streaming ;)
Agreed, but throw 10,000 Days in there and you got the entire trinity of what real music is all about. Like you name btw, MetallicOpeth
From a lifelong Tool fan. Listen to the albums in their entirety. They are not meant to be broken up. Enjoy and spiral out!
MOpeth mentioned a live stream.... Tool designs there songs to be listened to from the beginning of the album. But you could always listen to their hidden album, cultivated from The Golden Ratio... The Holy Gift
Thanks for the vid
Not many would pic this song to listen to
It’s about a DMT Trip
This wasn't one of my favorite Tool songs until I read the mumbling lyrics. Once you realize what it's about and how ingeniously they paint this alien abduction/acid trip scenario, it shoots up to top 3. But, I forgot my pen.
Michael Kofman this song is genius is you really think about it. Like how in the hell did someone listen to this music and decide that this song would be perfect to describe an acid trip. Insane.
It's a story about when James was drug around by Rita Repulsa.
I took her to Krispy Kreme once and suddenly it was three years later...
Subscribed, I want to see more tool reactions, haha.
"Rosetta Stoned" 1 hit of Mescaline, LSD, pink THC..and that language course was complete, we were all on the same page as soon as that shit kicked in.
I love this song. I think you would have enjoyed it even more if you had listened to the song “Lost Keys (Blame Hoffman)” as well in this video. It’s the preceding track on the album (Title: 10,000 Days) and is basically a long introduction to Rosetta Stoned.
And finally, depedning on which Tool era you're listening to, you'll get a different identity. They are a band who go away for a long time, live, do their own thing, and come back to each other with new experience. They consdier that a vital part of the band's existence. Never expect the same thing twice.
