- Skullz reacts to Die Eier von Satan & Pushit by Tool
Lyrical dissection.
Tool is an American rock band from Los Angeles. Formed in 1990... due to Tool's incorporation of visual arts and very long and complex releases, the band is generally described as a style-transcending act and part of progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and art rock. The relationship between the band and today's music industry is ambivalent, at times marked by censorship, and the band's insistence on privacy....Tool has won four Grammy Awards, performed worldwide tours, and produced albums topping the charts in several countries.

#Tool #PushitReaction #ToolReaction
Maynard introduced this song at a 1998 concert like this.........."Ever have someone love you so much that they tried to kill you? Like they're sucking you into a hole, and you have to kill them to get away?..........me either"
Dude, first rule of Tool: Not everything is about Maynard's mom.
Lol Well to be fair, I only connected the last 2 songs to Maynards mom. Partially because of the comments. I should probably try to keep those influences out of my reactions though 💯 I think the abstract nature of these songs are more interesting than anything 🤘
I've listened to this song thousands of times over the years, and the line "I must persuade you another waaaaaaay" still gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. This is Maynards greatest vocal moment in my opinion. Seeing them do this live a few months back was incredible. I've always told people, you don't listen to TOOL, you experience them. 🙂
Definitely the highlight of the song! Even the band behind him in that section is just unbelievable 🔥
Well...if we start the "Maynard's greatest vocal moment" thing... there will be NO END to this, mate! 🤣
10.000 days in the fire's enough - you're going HOOOO-OOOO-OOOME !!!
@@ralfkohler3671 Easily settled. It’s right here. 😂 ruclips.net/user/clipUgkxuH2djovXgC5vwqEpAFIcmfW8gqGyvDDy
I totally agree...I think that 3-line section together is such an absolutely beautiful little vocal section/performance: "If when I say I might fade like a sigh if I stay, you minimize my movement anyway... I must persuade you another WAYYY!!!!"
The first line is actually a bit tricky to sing, the cadence and the number of syllables feels odd when you sing it... I've been singing it alone in my house for the past ten minutes. So satisfying.
The buzzing is the flies around the shit. "Push it" on me, "put shit" on me. He plays with the phenetics of these words to just show off. Damn genius.
He does this on a few songs but I'm sure you've noticed...
@@toolsannie6625 Too many to name but not too much to listen to.
I agree Maynard is a genius lyricist. The line "Rest your trigger on my finger.." is another amazing line. It has such a different meaning to rest my finger on your trigger.
I seriously tear up at all your reactions. Seeing someone fall in love with and appreciate something you’ve loved for so long is a privilege and thank you for sharing it with us.
So happy you're enjoying them my friend! ❤🤘🔥
I can't believe I finally saw this song live this year. Maynard still hits all the notes. Classic! Great reaction.
Yeah man, they played in STL last month. It was a nice surprise.
Yep.I went to Chicago without my wife just to hear this song.
it was so amazing
I can die a happy man because I too saw TOOL play pushit live for the first time, and I’ve seen them 5 times since 2001
Was the highlight for my daughter and I in Detroit.
Like everyone else said, I recommend listening to the Salival version, even if you don't react to it. It's a version they played live, a couple years after the original/album version came out. Highly recommend.
A must!! It's sooo good!
Yes yes and YES
Its a must listen, it’s basically a completely different song
I dont like it.
I don't recommend the salival version, but I don't advise against either...
Yep, the version on Salival is outstanding.
We've been, we've been trying something
A little different this tour
We've been looking at one of our songs
From a different angle, under a different light
So we can hopefully kind of
See it almost for the first time
We'd like to try that for you tonight, is that okay?
We're gonna need your help though
We need your help and your permission
So we need you to find a comfortable space
That's not only comfortable, but vulnerable
And to just shut your eyes and go there
And we'll meet you on the other side
-MJK
Hey. This is the best "Push It' reaction I've ever seen. Take a bow.
I appreciate that! Much love 🤘
My favorite song. When I was a teen, it released my anger and it always turned bad days into good days. Something about the way it builds and releases musically allowed me to let go of my emotions.
I find the salival version of this song cathartic if I'm having a bad/anxious day. I find an out the way space, plug headphones in and zone out/nap/flat out pass out + start dreaming. By the close of the song I feel like I've pushed a reset button and I can get on with my day
It's so satisfying watching people fall in love with Tool...confused and a little horrified..and thoroughly entertained
In a catalogue of masterpieces, Pushit rises to the top. Definitely one of their most immense and thick, sonic experiences. Its them operating at full range. Seeing this live was otherwordly, that middle section was unbelievably hypnotic. THey're sonic warlocks I tell ya
This song is so under appreciated
Best song in their catalogue
Not by a true TOOL Fan my friend. ;)
For me personally this is about an abusive relationship, "the gap" is the relationship the other is forcing on him, "choke this infant before me" the abuser is childish, "who am i to judge or strike you down" i act the same way, "staring down the hole again, hands are on my back again" I'm getting pushed back into the relationship, "it will end no other way" i have to literally hurt you to get out of this relationship. Great reaction brother!
This is actually correct
the fact you included "Die Eier Von Satan" was awesome
it's a great recipe for Turkish Hash Balls
Wait until you hear Salival version of Pushit 🤯
The Salival version may be my favorite song. The music is incredible.
Even if you don’t react to it , you should go listen to the live version of push it, because the original is in your head. How they can take a great song and make it even better, crazy.
I was gonna comment on that same thing 😆, yes I agree salival, push it is a must after this
Ænima version >>>
Absolutely, I think the salival version is amazing. Too bad they didn't play it this year in Cle
Yes, definitely listen to the Live Salival version of this song. It's really good.
not better to everyone, not better to me. but yeah, he can give it a try.
For abused people that gap is real! The live version gets me every time but I love the studio version! I feel both to my core
Today for the first time...I am thinking of Jonny Depp while listening to this song...
Just going to share a quick story. It was July of 1997. I had this album playing for a couple of months….but there was something about PUSHIT that I kept gravitating toward. I remember driving this day in July and the song, finally landed on me like a wall of bricks. I pulled over and balled my eyes out….still do occasionally. Like you, myself and Maybe Maynard….I didn’t feel alone. Abuse is heavy and music can bring that trauma to the surface and really exercise it.
Kind of crazy actually. I was just thinking to myself, “what would I say to myself before”. It’s really not even a gap as it is two different people. Feels like I’m only wearing the face of who I was.
@@darenmiller2218 don’t stop trying to find who you want to be! It’s taken me years to even get halfway but it’s so much better. ❤️❤️❤️
In Jimmy, when he was eleven he left his mother to go live with his father, where he remained through high school. His father was a coach with the school. Maynard wrestled some and ran track. After school he went into the army, imagine that. Oh and in case you didn’t know, he’s big into Brazilian jiu-jitsu. You need to watch the “fan incident” concert footage. Oh his step dad was a bad dude, get from that what you will. He did a great interview with Marc Maron.
Tool in my favorite band ever in the cosmos.
My favorite song of all time. Almost 30 years later and I still scream this song alone in my car and I’m crying by the end.
Rest your trigger on my finger... possibly one of the greatest lines written
I was working in my hotel room last night and I came across your channel. I watched everyone of your Tool reaction videos and they resonated with me. Been a fan for 30 + years and have seen them 15 times in concert. I love your reactions and am excited for you to hear the Lateralus album, but don’t forget to circle back to Opiate once you get to the end of Fear Inoculum. Love your channel! 🤘🤘
Doesn't sound like you were working lol. No, I appreciate it bro! They're a great band and that's exactly what I plan on doing. I'll go back to Opiate after I finish Fear Inoculum 💯 Glad youre enjoying the videos! Much love 🤘
Thanks for sharing. I don’t always listen to Tool, but when I need it most their music is a healing/coping tool for me to work through different hardships in my life, no other band encompasses that for me. This song is particularly special to me, as well as The Patient, The Grudge & Reflection.
I always took the flies buzzing at the beginning to both be the flies over the "Shit" that's being pushed, but also the flies buzzing over a rotting corpse that is the slowly rotting corpse of the toxic relationship that he's talking about.
Ooooh, I've been waiting for you to get to this one! Pushit is such an incredible song
You're gonna love Lateralus (the album. . . well and the song lol) Thanks as always for letting me enjoy these songs with new eyes!
This song to me has such a progression of rage to a climax of victory of sorts. Such an intense song on many levels. Great prospective on it's meaning to YOU. Badass as always with Tool 🤘😎👍
Brother, you are doing tool reactions right! Pushit is epic!
"He integrated his shadow..."
PERFECT ANALYSIS!!!
I have been waiting for you to reach this song - one of my very favorites from Maynard.
It's fantastic man! 🔥🔥🔥
dude, your excitement is contagious! i absolutely enjoy your reactions.
Appreciate it! I've been loving this!
I think he’s speaking to himself here. he sees these past things calling him in again and he’s saying ‘don’t tempt me or we’ll both be gone’. This is one of my favorite songs. I feel like all of these past versions of himself get clarity after having his third eye opened; which is why Lateralus is so poignant and speaks on the ways to healing these ‘gaps’.
Bro, when you get a chance, listen to the “SALIVAL” version of Pushit, it’s a completely different experience, a total journey!
we'll see you on the other side...
Find a safe space.
Yes Maynards humor, its a recipie for deviled eggs in German. And Maynards mother died when he was 11 He is 'jimmy' and has influenced a lot of his works.
T00l covers Led Zeppelin 'No Quarter' is like magic so good to see more people jump down the "rabbit hole" that is T00L and the entirty of Maynard Janes Keenans work
She didn't die when he was 11. She had an aneurysm that paralyzed her for the next 27 years before she passed. Thus the album "10,000 days." 27 years=10,000 days. Not trying to be a smartass here it's just common knowledge in tool history by now. Go ahead and Google that bad boy if you don't believe me. Right on tho, the No Quarter cover is fantastic.🤘
It's not Deviled eggs. It's hash cookies.
@@thelieinbelieve6594 yes sorry, I misspoke
@@MrLestat8simon awesome TY I always had it wrong
As always, thank you for sharing your experience listening to this beautiful song. Is a song about an abusive relationship... something I feel like we can all relate to on some level. So powerful and emotional.
We've all been there! 🤘🔥
The salival live album is definitely worth the listen. I really enjoy your reactions to tool albums. I've been a fan for 20 years and it's awesome to see a 1st impression and you a damn good job expressing how the music effects you. Get ready for lateralus... 🤯
Appreciate it my friend! It's been a hell of a journey so far!
What i love about Tool. You can interpret it any way
You see how much they've evolved and changed
Fantastic reaction !...as always
Thanks !
I'm so excited for this. pushit is wanna my favs
Every song doesn't have to have personal authenticity of the experience they're writing about. Artistic expression is conveying a message and emotions.
You've got to listen to their remake of this, it's my face and absolutely amazing!
You've become my favorite reaction channel after seeing your Tool reactions.Every week I can't wait for you to upload.I also can't wait for you to listen to Lateralus.Your mind will get blown
I appreciate that 💯🙏 I always look forward to Tool Tuesdays!
Been listening to Tool since 93 and listen to them every day. Love all of their albums and all of their songs. Pushit is my fav. The way that song sounds sonically just hits me in the gut every time. Incredible track.
I tend to think that “Die” is about our misperceptions. The context in which we hear it recalls Nazi Germany, but once you have the rest of the information, it’s innocuous. We do the opposite as well, by not recognizing the malevolence in a situation because the context with incomplete information makes us feel at ease with it. Feel like I’m motormouthing. Great work! Keep it up.
it's a cookie recipe. i think
@@robinpaul7268 it has multiple layers. It sounds like nazi stuff on the surface, but its just cookies, but then you learn its a hashish cookie, but then you realize that shouldn't matter. So I think it's this cool seesaw of highlighting these biases
Zimzallabimzallzim…..
German perspective here: as someone who is very analytical and crticical of our history - to ANY German, this would rather sound like a recipe (which eventually turns out to be one for edibles), than something alluding to the 3. Reich. There are really no obvious innuendos or double entendres there.
On a linguistic note: yes, as a German, you notice a slight accent, but it is very minimal.
@@ralfkohler3671 I think perhaps your missing the juxtaposition of the ominous mass production of Nationalism and the frivolity of a hash cookie recipe. It's a drug to the people who feel like they're part of something. Regardless of the consequences they feel good about being a part of something. Or, I'm reading to much into it /shrug.
It's impossible to have a favorite Tool song but this is one of my current favorites:) I'm sure everyone told you to listen to the Salival version too. I look forward to that reaction.
Yeah its on the to-do list 💯
This song brought me to your channel, but when I realized you were doing the songs in order... 🔥🤘🏽
Subbed for the rest of the journey! 👍🏽😁
Aye! Glad to have you along for the ride! 🤘
Thank you,thank you, thank you 🤝 Well said and well done 🙏 We appreciate you & welcome to T👀L 🧘♂️
One of my all time favorites.
Dier von satan is a chocolate chip cookie recipe yelled at you in German. Don’t ask me the meaning of it because I don’t have any idea either…
Pushit is my favorite TOOL song. It references an abusive relationship. And the cycle of domestic violence. The walking on eggshells phase and explosion phase followed by the honeymoon phase where your abuser tried to make you stay. The music even mimics that. Deep stuff.
There are no chocolate chips in that recipe. It's also not cookies but flour balls (eier von satan = satan's balls, where germans use "eggs" to refer to male genitalia rather than english speakers using "balls")
NO BUTTER
Oh. I stand corrected. Like I said I don’t understand it
The climax of DVS is when Mjk screams no butter in german
@@shortbus6560 no butter? Und keine Eier? No eggs.
Butter in german is butter (the u pronounced slightly different)
Where do you folks get those translations from?
Hell yes! One of their best!
thanks again for another tool reaction. i always loved the way the song transistions near the end and mjk vocals are sick. well done once again skullz.
Love your lyrical analysis! I always thought of it being about an ex...but you made me think it could be about his parents. My simple take on this song is that everyone has a breaking point. We are all patient to a degree and if we are pushed to the point where we snap...then the beast is unleashed and we claw those throats to silence our instigators.
I love your reaction !!! Love this song can’t wait to watch you go on your journey through the TOOL catalog it’s amazing 🤩🎶💜🙋🏻♀️music is life ! 🤘🏽keep going 🌀
Appreciate you Christina 🤘
I'm soooo jealous of you hearing this for the first time 😆
I remember when I 1st bought this album in 1996. I was already a big fan but this album just blew my mind. Most of my friends were kinda casual listeners so they mostly liked Stinkfist, Anima, and 46 & 2. I loved those songs too, but Pushit, Eulogy, Jimmy, and Third Eye were "my jams". Great song, I love watching your Tool reactions.
Saw them play this live a month ago and it was exhilarating . There was a giant mesh net hanging down around the stage during the first few songs as they projected graphics onto it. Then when Pushit was blasting in the climatic finale, the net parted in the middle and peeled back to reveal the band in full clarity. The crowd was going absolute ape shit! You really need to see them live; totally worth the price of the ticket.
Yeah I gotta try and do it! 🔥🔥🔥
Oh man I couldn’t Wait for you to get to this one!
Top song for me!!! I love it!
I've watched so many other You Tubers try to break down Tool lyrics, and you my friend are at the top of that list. Your making me look at these albums with a whole different lens, I don't know if it's correct but it sounds legit lol, either way you know your shit. Good job👊
I don't think anything is right or wrong here. The beauty of the songs are that they're so well written they can be interpreted in endless ways 💯 Happy you're enjoying them brother! Feel free to drop your interpretations 🤘
@@Skullzrapper yeah, for sure man I totally didn't mean right or wrong lol, just as a first listener to these songs your very good at trying to interpret what you think the song means to you. That's why I couldn't ever do reactions, I'd be so horrible at it lmao 🤣 😂
No worries, I knew what you meant bro! Tool is challenging as hell so don't think it's all easy peasy for me lol. I usually need to go for a walk after and clear my mind 😂
@@Skullzrapper I bet, I still remember the first time I had ever listened to Tool, it was right when Aenima came out a friend got me listening to them and at that time we had just started playing music together, him on drums and myself on guitar. Sometimes I wish I could go back and hear it for the first time again. I love hearing original bands who don't sound like anyone else and Tool has that over any other group in the last few albums. When you get time you should listen to PUSH IT, SALIVAL Live show. Try to listen with the least amount of pauses if you can. Hopefully for you it's gonna be like hearing your favorite song again for the first time but better lol. I really like your original art/music style and I can't wait to see how your life and music taste changes the further you get into Tool and hopefully some Nirvana and 90s Era, 80s and all the way back to the Beatles. If you're also a guitar player then your gonna have a million new bands to learn from. I'm not assuming you don't know those bands and genres but I don't know you lol. Can't wait to see what you react to next✌️🤘
AND NOOO EEEEGGGGS!
I`m from Germany and was so surprised when i first hear that song. Sadly till today i never baked after this recipe 😁
😂😂😂
"There's no love in fear"- ❤️❤️❤️
Incredible line! ❤
@@Skullzrapper ❤️❤️❤️
Love hearing your perspective an thorough breakdown ..you are so awesome thanku so much love and God bless always x
Appreciate it Wendy ❤ Hope you're doing well!
@@Skullzrapper always good thanku so much for asking x
I can't wait for you to delve into the Lateralus album!
Man dude! I've watched this a few times and love your reaction Skullz! You are truly one of the only people that has this right.
I love this journey for you! Cannot wait until you get to the next album as i am sure every other fan is! Lateralus...oh boy can't wait.
My fav somg ever. I never get sick of it.
Finally!!
TOOL IS FOREVER 🤘🔥🖤🔥🤘
I got to see TOOL back in January up here in Denver Colorado and when they played this song I may have spit my brew out in amazement so I apologize to the couple in front of me who had no idea what song that was about to be played. Oh do Carry on with more TOOL buddy
Its their fault for not wearing a poncho 🤣 Every Tuesday is Tool Tuesday! I'll keep up the journey! 💯
@@Skullzrapper hellz yeah man
I’m enjoying the hell out of you experiencing these for the first time. This is one of my all time fav songs by TOOL. Enjoy the journey.
Listening to this since 1997 would blast this on my Sony Walkman before football games. Fire.
Awesome. Glad you liked it
You’ll absolutely love junstin’s bass on the salival version. Absolutely 🤯
I was wondering where you were brother ,. Pushit is one of my favs. ,. Keep my feet on the ground
I knew you'd dig this one. My favorite. So powerful. Can't wait for Salival.
FINALLY! I've been waiting for this particular reaction since you started this album. This might be my favorite song by Tool. I'm thrilled you were so hyped by it. Top notch reaction once again
Yeah this one was killer! Especially that last half! OH. MY. GOD. 🤘
Your reaction, once again, didn’t disappoint! I had bought this album when it first came out on CD and only listened to the songs from the radio until I was riding in a car up to a mountain in CO to snowboard and I fell asleep while listening and when I woke up, it was the end of this song and I was blown away. I started it over and realized how I had been sleeping on all the other songs without knowing it! Haha, anyway, keep ‘em coming!!
Keep in mind, Maynard often tells stories like he is making a movie etc. It doesn’t necessarily have to be something he has actually been through. Like with PRISON SEX, he described the cycle of the abused sometimes becoming the abuser, but he never once mentions in his AMAZING book about his WHOLE life (U MUST READ IT) that he has been abused in any way. He is just such an amazing story teller that people are left to assume that he has lived through whatever he writes about. Love your MAYNARD reactions by the way. I am here for your whole journey. I fell in love for this man when Undertow first came out. I was lucky enough to see him in some fairly small clubs on the Undertow tour. Love seeing you get excited the way I did when I first heard his voice and read his lyrics.
In 96 with a nose full of coke. In the winter in a shed. This song kept me warm and alive
My all-time favorite Tool song right here!!! ❤❤
yes m ust do the salival version at some point. finally heard this live in feb. in DC. best song of the show. was worth the 20 year wait for me to hear it live
also very interesting take on the lyrics. i love hearing other peoples views
Appreciate it bro! Yeah I'll get to the other version for sure! 🤘
I remember the first time I heard this song I also had trouble figuring out the time signature and you're right, it's because it sounds more complicated than it is; it's mostly in 3/4 and that sinks in once you realize it. Once again, loving these TOOL takes 👊
Just discovered your channel and your reactions to this song and to H. really made me want to share.
Even though I love Tool since the 90's, a couple of years ago I somehow rediscovered Pushit and it resonated with me in a different way. Back then I was in a long and abusive relationship with a person who has BPD (borderline personality disorder) and this song just so perfectly encapsulated what that relationship was like. "Rest your trigger on my finger" is such a powerful statement about someone who is uncontrollably and inexplicably violent to people they love. The ending of the song has exceptional significence to me, because it somewhat inspired and pushed me into ending that relationship. Survival mode kicked in because if I didn't back out from it, the violence would just escalate indefinitely, all under the guise of "love".
Amazing how we all can interpret songs differently.
haha - Die Eier Von Satan is like Disgustipated meets Pink Floyd / In The Flesh......
this is so fun!! that section in Pushit when you feel like your getting slammed around in a plane crash, then it just breaks down into the weightlessness, you looked straight at us, in the eye, and I think I know what's goin on in there :) thought we lost you for a second then in spacedoutlandia.... that was the deepest I have seen you go inside yourself during a Tool song.
yeah you felt it mate!! Definitely the most you have moved ( and tranced out ) in a Tool song so far..... now you can feel that whenever you want to :)
first time I heard this song was at the gig at London Astoria circa '96, hadn't even heard the album..... the massive wrap around screen at the back of the stage had African tribal people leaping in slow motion through the breakdown, so trippy..... there were also Elephants doin the dirty later on. so............
Can't even remember what I was thinking in those moments. I was just immersed 😂 Wild ride to say the least 🔥
My all time favorite song. Great reaction, thanks.
I love that you care to search his meanings behind the songs. When I first started listening to them in high-school in the early 90s, we had no way to search lyric meanings. Its so different now and the meanings of songs and how they've changed for me over the years growing and learning , finding out what the hell Maynard was really talking about and the true meaning of his songs,, which some we may never know because even he won't tell lol...keep listening. I LOVE your reactions. Please react to Reflection and crawl away. Love you🥰
I already reacted to Crawl Away! I'm reacting to all their albums in chronological order right now 💯 I'll get to Reflection! Appreciate your comment 🤘
One of my favorites!
Can’t wait to see you react to “Reflection” on Lateralus. I can see your facial expression as the outdo words are sung. It’s gonna blow you away man.
❤ Loved your reaction👍🏻
#ToolArmy #Spiralout
This song is great and tool fans arent lying when they say the salival version is even better. Its like they saw its further potential and captured it. All 4 members refined their parts to create a masterpiece.
I think the studio is unbeatable. The song needs the dynamics which the salival version is missing.
@@jensclarberg6419 we must be hearing differently. To me the salival version is more dynamic, subtle, vivid and powerful, but its like maynard advised: it requires a more vulnerable state from the listener.
So many subtle flourishes that the different instruments play off of that werent in the original song.
@@heofonfyr5089 Well not really, the salival one builds and gets louder and louder. The studio works in waves
I love love love your reaction.....you are the best reactor I've watched.... please do the live version of this. Its sooooooo amazing and different yet you know it's Pushit. Its beautiful and even more harmonious and show his vocal skills. Its Pushit live Salival. Can't wait to see it😍
They played in STL back in March. I saw them twice on this album tour and they never played it. It was the best surprise of that show.
Finally got to hear this one live last week, what a masterpiece! They fucking nailed it aswell
Amazing
The combination of friction and open spaces within the song... So good. This is my favorite on the album, but it can be difficult to get through sometimes.
I cannot wait for you to hear/see it live.
Dope. I really enjoy your breakdowns and the journey you take between each record. I think downward spiral from nine inch nails would be incredible for u. Definitely recommended bro!
I've had a few people say that! I've heard the album but don't remember the majority of it. Never dove deep into the lyrics or anything though. I'm interested in it though 💯
@@Skullzrapper ya bro it’s an absolute masterpiece. I highly recommend u do it. Just as this tool album is a pivotal album of this time…..downward spiral is prolly just as legendary and a true staple of the genre
The cycles of generational abuse, and how we can learn to fall in love with our pain. It takes everything to change that cycle; the sobering acknowledgment of our faults, and the emotional fuel that must be engaged with to find metamorphosis. The last refrain I feel is aimed inward. Remember the love you have cultivated for yourself, even as the pain of expression (the voice) is torn apart from the effort. THIS is what it takes to heal; a burning of the ships. There is no other way.
I've never wanted to climb through my phone so bad and say "not everything is about his mother!" in my life. Sorry its early and I haven't had my coffee 😅
😂😂😂
Yeah, as I'm sure many have said. You really need to check out the live version of pushit off of their salival lp. It has a totally different feel to it. Almost beings me to tears!
Die Eier von Satan
Rough english translation: The Eggs of Satan
Half a cup of powdered sugar.
One quarter teaspoon salt.
One knife tip Turkish hash.
Half a pound butter.
One teaspoon vanilla-sugar.
Half a pound flour.
150 g ground nuts.
A little real powdered sugar,
... and no eggs.
(und keine Eier)
Place in a bowl,
Add butter,
Add the ground nuts,
and knead the dough.
Form eyeball-size pieces from the dough.
Roll in the powdered sugar and say the magic words:
"Sim sala bim bamba sala do saladim."
Place on a greased baking pan and
Bake at 200 degrees for 15 minutes,
...AND NO EGGS
Bake at 200 degrees for 15 minutes,
...and no eggs.
More of that intent we talked of before. You pretty much got it. The tongue in cheek fun side of the band. Maynard playing around with interpretation by putting a hash cookie recipe to industrial music and German narration, raising the intensity as it's read whipping a crowd into a frenzy. Music like this in the 80's early 90's bent a certain kind of person out of shape. With the whole "satanic panic" you couldn't be a metal fan without running into christian protestors at concerts and record stores or complaining in the news about music they never bothered to try to understand. "Looks evil, sounds evil, must be evil." Glad those days are mostly behind us. The same music they protested is now played over loudspeakers at sporting events, lol. It was pretty frustrating to live through it tho, you were judged evil just for listening. I think they were just playing around with that idea.
As far as Pushit goes I think you have great instincts. It's really amazing to me that he can write something that is so very emotional/personal and yet keep it open to so many interpretations. It means many things to many people and that's great. I mostly see it as a toxic relationship with well, anything. Another person, addiction, religion, abuse...yourself. Insert it in this song and it can work. Pretty amazing writing in that. It seems like someone who despises being dependent on the thing that's killing them (literal or not) and is in that downward spiral and becomes desperate to separate themself before it's too late. As I write this I had a thought that it could be Maynard extricating himself from himself...his destructive self. It keeps the theme of the record. It works on so many levels and that's the genius of it. Again he's said different things about it over the years usually right before playing it in concert but those quips are mostly vague as well.
He said "have you ever had someone try to drag you into a hole...yeah me neither." And they played the song, lol. I think he likes it vague. Love to see you get into it, great reaction!🤘♥️
Also you said something about the complexity and depth of the music and its sonic difference from Undertow. I thought of all that's to come if you keep going and smiled. You're spot on and it only gets better through the albums as they hone their craft, understand themselves and their purpose more as they get older (and afford better equipment, lol). They start to sound slightly different because they are constantly changing like we all do.
It's fun to watch people digest music in months that a lot of us had to wait decades in the making to hear. All that time in between and hundreds of listens puts you in a certain place and time in life. It's refreshing to see you have all this information at once and having similar but new takes on it all. And the internet sucked then so meaning for songs came from magazine interviews, concert ramblings or just plain ol observation like you're doing so well. I think you going through front to back is the way to go although I'm not sure if you did Opiate, have to go through the vids and look. Some reactors just go and pick hits randomly. But if you're trying to take the journey this is the way. You're gonna love it. They paint masterpiece after masterpiece. Sorry I text too much lol.
I really appreciate that insight about Christians and Satan worshipping bands. Not something I considered since I was so young when the album dropped. And I skipped Opiate but I'll probably go back and check it out after I finished Fear Inoculum. Usually EPs are whatever but clearly I was wrong in this case lol. Thanks for the comment 💯
@@Skullzrapper You'll start to see how his dislike of organized religion factors in to how he writes and sees his mom as well. You probably noticed in Judith. His mom was very religious and as most people do when tragedy strikes (especially so young) he blamed God for her being paralyzed, thus the anger you get from the beginning (Opiate being one right out the gate, yes it's important lol🤷). He sees his mother's belief and how she's "rewarded" for it, and it becomes another outlet for his rage, rightfully so in my book sometimes. He's become an important voice for those of us who don't need religion in our lives.
Spoiler if you want a totally fresh view in future reactions. Through the albums he obviously changes his view (intertwined with becoming a more whole enlightened being) from outright anger in a benevolent God that would allow this to happen to someone so devout, having to suffer so long, to a respect of his mom's devotion to her faith in the face of such a trial. Through his mother's eyes he was able to see what it's supposed to be, he saw real faith through his mother's journey. In the last song you'll see he understands the kind of faith "they only read about." It is a very beautiful send off and an important turning point. Although then he still points out religious hypocrisy in Talk Talk in A Perfect Circle which comes later. He has a begrudged sense of respect at least for his mother's faith which is a stark turn about from the place we joined him at in the beginning. I'm not gonna say too much more and I don't think it gives much away. But there's so much depth here.
It's such a deeply personal struggle, I am not religious myself but grew up in a religious household. I understand all too well what that does to someone that thinks for themselves. You feel like an outcast when all those around you deem you defective/bad, even those that are supposed to love you unconditionally and have tolerance as the bible states. I am not against people believing what they want, they just shouldn't pushit on others, in any way. They usually use it as a weapon of judgement, a morality measuring stick that says I'm better than you when in fact most of the time they're the worst version of that. And we definitely still have that problem. From the top down. It permeates everything and alienates people with different beliefs. Obviously I found escape in like minded voices like Maynard's and many other bands, writers, comedians. It helped to know someone was experiencing the same thing I was and understood.
Damn ! Well done Sir !
