I honestly don’t believe I’ve ever seen anyone sit so still during this song 🤷🏻♀️
And checking Facebook during the song
For real thanks for the lol🤣🤣
The song descending by tool i always felt like it was a theme to a movie
RISE!
@@jakeihrig8992 100%
Descending is a prophecy.
Couldnt agree more!!
You should do Pneuma and the drum cam back to back
just so folks know, there's a lot more drum cam vids of Carey online besides Pneuma
No, there really isn't @@ohioagainsttheworld676
@@ohioagainsttheworld676 true but Pneuma is, by far, the best quality.
Agreed, if possible do the studio version first. However, if they're only going to do one version, do the drum cam, they need to see the octopus in action.
@@OmaSimster luckily they remastered the older one. Grudge, Stinkfist, H., Eulogy, Parabola.. it's awesome
I think Pneuma followed by drum cam version would be a great next choice too. The comment from Maynard (singer) regarding standing off to the side is he can see what the musicians are doing, and their sound isn’t flooding his mic.
Great rection boys! Love the insight! Tool army is here for this journey.
Adam Jones (guitar) also worked in special effects on movies (Terminator 2, Jurassic Park to name a few)
glad y'all are going down the rabbit hole. any song you pick will be great. try descending next haha
Am I the only one who noticed him start to rub his eye just before the "you've got lemon juice up in your eye" line? Some perfect timing there 😄
Outstanding reaction. I will be here for all Tool
Great Reaction! I like your perspective. Tool Army checking in and spiraling out 🌀🌀🌀
Glad yall are enjoying the best band ever ❤❤
For some short lore of the band the lead singer is Maynard James Keenan who is now 60 from Ohio before moving to LA in the late 1980s to become an actor. After that not working out he took part in a few Music projects before meeting Adam Jones. Adam Jones who is the lead guitar and is from Illinois and is currently 59, Adam moved to LA to be a movie special effects artist before forming Tool with Maynard in 1991. Prior to officially forming they added the drummer Danny Carry who was a friend and Neighbor to Maynard. Short story is that he covered as their drummer as they looked for one, eventually he practiced so much with them he decided to join. He is turning 63 soon and is from Kansas and is tall at 6’5”. Next was Paul D’Amour who was Tools first bassist who was from LA and wrote the bass lines for their 1st album Undetow and most of their second album AEnima before leaving the band in 1995. The last member and personally my favorite is Justin Chancellor who joined in 1995 and was featured on their 2nd album from 1996. Justin was in the British rock band Peach before joining Tool and is the youngest at 52 as well as he is from London, England. Their albums are 72828 LP (1991), Opiate EP (1992), Undertow (1993), AEnima (1996), Lateralus (2001), 10,000 Days (2006), Fear Inoculum (2019), They have also won 4 Grammies!
They're going to love the Pneuma drum cam!
Keep em coming :) This is the kind of content the world needs.
"Progressive metal" is the description most often used for Tool's music.
Love that you are doing audio only! These 4 come together to make one big unique instrument. You only get one chance to feel a new Tool song for the first time. As much as I don't want to recommend a live video yet.. the Pnuema drum cam video gives a good sense on how well they perform live and how amazing Danny Carey is! It forces you to hear the drums differently in every song after that. Can't wait to watch your Tool journey unfold!
I saw them at a sold out show at the United Center, in Chicago, and I was blown away. They ask their audience to keep their phones in their pockets and enjoy the show. Everyone respects their wishes. Their performances are life changing! I'm enjoying your two's journey. I'd recommend Pneuma Live Drum Cam to see Danny's skills!
Tool drum cam video is a must
Keep bringing 🛠️T⚙️⚙️L🛠️🔥🔥🔥
5:55 The choreography for this reaction is nothing short of outstanding.
This was a lot of fun to watch I hope you guys keep it going.
Just a helpful tip, the Eagles have a ferocious legal department, notorious for striking literally anything that has 2 seconds of an Eagles song in it on RUclips.
Tool is very melodic, too. It’s an amazing blend of layered heavy metal with epic stretches of controlled angst, all held together by Danny. Tool army will also not be opposed to dipping into some Primus at some point, as well.
I am so excited to see more Tool reactions from you both. Well done gents!
Eulogy and Pushit. 🔥❤️🙏
Welcome to the rabbit hole Gentleman.
Before Pneuma drum cam video give Invincible a go. It's fantastic and also really showcases Danny's drumming, a good warm up to Pneuma
Tool is their own genre
Descending by Tool
Wassat...TOOL Army grunt here your reaction is music to my ears now im gonna watch all your TOOL reactions 🌀😁
I'd like to see you do Schism (audio only, their videos are distracting.)
Also the drum cam for Pneuma is incredible! More Tool! Great job lads!
I like how they say that the singer isn't forefront, when he indeed performs behind the band (nowadays)
Tool Army in the House, Spiral Out!!!
Read about Adam Jones, the guitarist, and his art history. You hit a lot of nails on the head. Great reaction.
They would love "Wings for Marie" and "10,000 Days". I have always considered it a symphony. It's just beautiful. But, as the others have suggested, the Pneuma drum cam will blow their mind, it's absolutely mesmerizing.
I've really enjoyed the last couple tool reactions. I hope you go down the rabbit hole. New sub, hoping for more
Gonna really enjoy this ride! 😊
Tool Army USA checking in and subscribed!
Great video, can't wait for more.
Show them Nightwish at Wakken 2013, Ghost Love Score. The Nightwish Army will be in force, and not to mention the amazing music of Nightwish fronted by the Valkyrie Goddess Floor Jansen!
Make sure to check out their older music as well. Awesome reaction👍
Lol. "Older music". This song is almost 18 years old. Although to be fair, it's from their 2nd most recent album.
I agree, this song wouldn't be labeled heavy metal.. but their earliest works, Opiate and Undertow, could be tho..
Side note: MJK was "out front" on stage during the first few tours, which was amazing ro experience. I suggest the Sober Reading Festival live video, but later in you journey, watch some others!
As far as "rock opera like".. I'd suggest Invincible and Descending ❤
Edit: Idk how true, but just fyi, other channels have said they have to pause at least once during song or good chance their video will be struck.
Vicarious with lyrics!
These gents are a great watch! Love your takes!
Much appreciated!
Here for it, fellas!!
I am totally tuned in for more of your Tool reactions, but be wary of the Eagles. Their legal team makes YT reactions massively difficult from what I have heard from other reactors (yes, I used and adj and an adv). I saw Maynard's other 2 bands plus primus last night at his 60th birthday celebration/short tour, and it was great despite the rain. Your camera man isn't wrong. I have never encountered a band that sounds as close to the album sound when they want to be as Tool. Many musicians today have a tough time pulling that off. I highly recommend seeing them live if you can. It is a special experience and you will get an unbelievable rush from the crowd and everyone's enthusiasm. I think your observations about the singer are spot on for Tool. He has stated, and makes a point of considering his voice as just another instrument in Tool. He isn't trying to be a lead. He is simply part of the talent pool that is Tool, and I think all of them do a good job of letting their instruments breathe and giving one another space. Your camera man also made a great point that his other 2 bands the lead singer is in he is much more of a front man. He isn't afraid of being up front, but knows when to not be. Which I think is a rare understanding. I highly recommend his other bands in this order, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer if you all get around to it.
This is the Tool song I most often recommend people start in with. Tool's poly rhythms get more and more complex (not heavy) as their career progressed, and sitting someone down to listen to some of the most recent music first is kind of like throwing them in the deep end. If you are going to do more tool reactions (please do), I recommend Vicarious, The Grudge, 46 and 2, Lateralus, Jambi, or Anema. If you really like drums, Pneuma and then the Vic Furth drum cam of Pneuma is great to actually visualize what the drummer is doing. Though to be fair, you two have a different musical background than most reactors I see. So, I trust your camera man if he is picking the songs for you all, and in that case ignore my suggestions. If you are going to do Lateralus, please consider following it up with a video from Polyphonic's YT channel called "How Tool Used Math to Create "Lateralus"" The song structure is based on a mathematical formula and that really does a good job of showing it. It's something nobody picks up on first listen which is kind of the point.
Almost all of Tool's songs on YT have the lyrics in the description as well. Lyrics are a big deal for Tool songs. Most Tool songs have multiple meanings, and are frequently left up to the listener to take what they might from the song. However, this one has a general meaning as well as a specific one. The general meaning is about hypocrisy, the Pot calling the kettle black. At the same time, there is some beef/at least a complaint between Tool and Led Zeppelin. I have already typed enough so I won't go very deep into that since this is going to be long, but will provide the short. Tool is calling Led Zeppelin out for liberally borrowing other musicians' songs and playing them as their own. The Muddy Waters line is a reference to the blues band Muddy Waters and their 1962 song You Need Love (the lines "Eyehole deep in Muddy Waters, You practically raised the dead). Led Zeppelin basically "borrowed" the lyrics from that song for their huge hit Whole Lotta Love. You can YT both songs and see what I mean if you are interested. I love Zeppelin, and they are super talented musicians, but it's hard to deny that they did this with multiple musicians over the years. "When the Levee Breaks" compared to Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy's version of the song by the same name is another example. It's not a Zeppelin song, it's a cover, and Tool covered Zeppelin's version. I recommend that one as well, it's great. Zeppelin is notorious for using the courts to protect their music, and has fought other bands for playing their songs at live concerts. NOT recording them, but just playing them live. Which is perfectly legal. So, Tool is calling them out for liberally "borrowing" from other musicians, but being super aggressive with going after other musicians that try to use Zeppelins music.
I hope you continue on the Tool journey. The Tool Army will follow as always. We love to see new people react to Tool. It's like us vicariously seeing ourselves watch again for the first time. I just stumbled across your channel b/c of this Tool song, but good job. Keep up the good work. This is super long, but I hope some of you all read it despite it being a phone book. lol
I, unfortunately, haven't had the opportunity to see any of Maynard's projects live. I saw Between The Buried And Me last summer and I could have been listening to the CD. They were so good live.
Awwwwww yeah 🤘🌀
"There are two kinds of people in the world: those who like Tool and those who haven't listened to them enough yet"
btw, looks they'd love Puscifer too
Great to see some Irish reactors to tool..Cork man here along for the ride
Maynard was the singer for RATM before Zach...actually has a vocal on Know Your Enemy...apparently he introduced Tom Morello to the wonders of drop D tuning. You should do that tune...I would be interested in your take.
Maynard was never in Rage Against the Machine. They were all friends, but he was never in the band.
Spiral out my brothers! Peace
Lost keys + Rosetta stoned next
progressive rock
Go to the opiate ep...raw roots of the band and even 2 live tracks. That record was a huge deal in 92
They're progressive metal in my opinion. But that's the beauty of them, you can't put them in a box
I will suggest going with lyrics as well, Maynard is a very fine lyricist. Another attribute to recognize on the band besides their musicianship is that they have great lyrics.
Dude checking his phone for airline departures……
Man, the guy on the left was a stone cold killer. Didn't make a face or a movement.
If you ever get them to listen to Lateralus, first explain the Fibonacci connections. It's always nice to see the expression on people's faces when they realize the grandeur of the compositional work behind that song and the surprise when they understand that an entire song based on a mathematical sequence is not just a jumble of meaningless sounds .
Tool invented Prog Metal and we all know it and we all love it
Parabol>Parabola would be a great next spin!! I always describe em as Proggy Metal
Best band of my lifetime!!
Do "Wings For Marie Pt. 2". And Eulogy and H. and actually, start from the beginning of their discography, you'll be blown away! All members are masters of their craft.
Welcome
While you are on 10,000 days, you might want to listen to Jambi. It is one of my favorite songs of all time.
My suggestion for another TOOL song would be Invincible.
If i'm not correct, i believe this song won them a grammy.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but i know it was definitely something from 10,000 days 🤷♂️
*insert Kylo Ren meme* MORE!!!
Their name is meant as meaning they create art that can be a tool for personal growth & change. They really connect as a band and just WILL NOT release something that isn't what they feel is great.
Danny Carey (drummer) is Jazz trained and in fact is going to be playing some King Crimson with Steve Vai, Adrian Belew & Tony Levin.
Yes but back in 1992 it was a dick joke look at the cover of their 1991 72826 cassette cover. 😂 🔩🔧
I think they're typically classified as Progressive Metal.
I want these two to be my surrogate Scottish Granddads.... First, they look like they can take a pint or twelve. Second, but with punches. Lastly, they'd still be able to speak eloquently afterward!
you guys must try " Bottom " from undertow ,Henry Rollins does the spoken word, you guys will digit.......tool army est.1993
I was between recommending Bottom, Undertow, or Flood. Those are my three favorites from that album.
@@johnnyb6067 don't forget 4 degrees
They are considered Progressive Metal, so think a heavier Pink Floyd. But they are very much their own thing.
Watch the drum cam pneuma Danny Carey
Texting during the song, really engaged...
Is tool your favorite band yet?
like 2 corpses staring at a forsaken chance at life to each his own I suppose. Best wishes to u both
We didn't hear that in the lyrics? Will get it another listen
Omg are these guys dead?
It’s sacrilege to compare this legendary band to pop rock mettalica. That’s like comparing Jason Beeber to Freddy Mercury.
I actually disagree with the comments. I don't think they should do Pneuma next. They need to work their way through Opiate, Aenima, Lateralus and 10,000 Days before breaking into Fear Inoculum. Let them get the full experience before seeing where Tool is now in their growth.
I call them progressive metal but who am I to wave my finger
Tool is not heavy metal, they are really their own thing but Progressive Rock would be the best category to put them in.
Two mannequins.
Never heard of that Tool song? Will react to that next.
F****** text when reacting to a song
How annoying it is to watch someone on their phone while they are reviewing a song...
We've taken this comment very seriously. He's since been executed.
@@TheSalvationShow
Good call. lol
@@TheSalvationShowharsh but fair 😝
Not metal their genre
Brilliant reaction once again. Thanks fellas. pneuma then the drum cam back to back is the move!
When you asked if he was thinking of Ghost, do you think he was thinking of GOJIRA?
SHOW THEM THE VIDEO OF DANNEY CAREY PLAYING LIVE WITH THE DRUM CAM!
Also, I think you'd call Tool progressive rock / industrial.
