I watched your first TOOL reaction literally 2 hours ago and wondered when you would do a next one. You definitely followed with a great pick and my personal favorite. I am really happy you enjoy a band that I personally consider the pinnacle of music. Many of us TOOL fans love seeing other people's reaction for the first time and I am so envious you get to listen to them for the first time ever. And hopefully not for the last time. But honestly... seeing your reaction to Parabol/Parabola... welcome to the TOOL army.
Literally me. Watched the parabol/parabola and jumped right into this one.
@@Quinaitor same!!
I came across Tool in my early 20's and couldn't understand anything. They were too complex for me and somewhat boring. Haha what an irony! Now in my 40's there isn't band which I could appreciate more! So I am also envious when first listening reaction looks like this...
Had to see if he would ride this spiral 🌀
This was my first one but was only seconds in before I saw that Parabol/Parabola was his first listen so I stopped, watched that first and came RIGHT back here!!
One of the best reactions to Tool I've ever watched and I've watched endless reactions to Tool. Almost painfully so just trying to find reactions like yours right here.
Yoooo this really means a lot! It's a pleasure.
This ladies and gentlemen is a video showing exactly how a Tool fan is born. It's so great seeing you embrace Tool and realizing the greatness that is this band. Now that you have started to understand what they are capable of. You still have a lot left to understand, but i digress. You should do a reaction to Tool-Pneuma (a live drum cam video). It showcases the absolute beast that is Danny Carey. Like others have said before me I'm jealous of anybody that gets to take this journey for the first time. It's the greatest journey you could ever take with music. Tool is more than music, it is an experience.
I love watching a reactor realizing that Tool has become their favorite band. I remember when it dawned on me!
4:22 is where it hit the core of his being.
I am honestly friggin excited! oo ok ok the music just started. this is going to be great :0)
So much this. Perfect comment.
Someone who can do David Attenboroughs voice needs to make a short piece on their early development.
You just can't hide the emotional impact this song has on you..Your a kid in a candy store my friend.... Welcome to the life changing journey that we call TOOL
I remember back in '99 when I was first introduced and I had a reaction near the same.
Only I wasn't on camera and, dude, I teared up.
No words.
Attempting to explain the spiritual and emotional depth is nearly impossible to comprehend when you're open and having an initial response.
Been on this journey for a long time and it just keeps getting better!
Tool isn’t just music, it’s an inner look on yourself through their songs. It’s an experience
"I never thought I'd have a spiritual experience while listening to metal." --- New TOOL fan
I cry fairly often when listening to TOOL alone… it’s profoundly powerful music and if you can truly connect with it then the experience is beautiful.
15:27 he slowly, overwhelmingly realizes that it's hitting him hard in the feels.
The power of TooL.
Been there my dude!
Enjoy the ride, spiral out🌀
Legit he had tears welling in his eyes.
Every tool fan has that at some point with their music
Without realizing it, you just set up your next Tool song by referencing Jung. "46 and 2" I can't wait for your reaction to that.
OF COURSE they talk Jung. How did I not know about these guys!?
@@SebsDuran ditto, definitely do that one next
You were right in noticing the Fibonacci in the syllables in the verse "Black (1), then (1), white are (2), all I see (3)" etc. Spirals integrated into the words. In my view, one of the cleverest and most profound songs ever written. I'm no expert on time signatures, etc, but I read that the song was originally called 987, which was apparently part of the time signatures of the song - 9/8, 8/8, 7/8... 987 is one of the Fibonacci numbers, and I read that this is what inspired the inclusion of Fibonacci concepts into the song.
This song always moves me, deeply. I've listened to it literally hundreds of times, perhaps even over a thousand times (I'm old lol), and it has never lost its impact.
Spiral out dude, keep going.
Sebs, the fact you picked up on it so fast blows my mind. Welcome to that army! I wish I could be in your shoes...
Staged :3
Greatest band of my lifetime!!! I'm 51.......TOOL ARMY!!!!!!
@Danny Francis LMAO
@Danny Francis can’t forget about nickleback 😂😂😂🤘🏻
Agreed, I'm 47. Saw them I think 6 times through the years. It's been a long time though.
@@johncarpenter3751 Bahahaha
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.
I was going through a really confusing and difficult time in my early 20s when I heard this song and that line. I'm a musician and I enjoy music so much more because of it and it really emotionally triggers me. That line made me freeze up and then the following sequence allowed me to work that out in my brain and when the Bass line started to do the sliding I broke down into tears but for the first time it was the most peace I'd had in years. It was amazing and changed my life in a huge way.
Brotha, “Pneuma” by TOOL is an absolutely masterpiece as well, they even have a LIVE drum cam video as well as showing off legendary drummer Danny Carey, it’s a drum cam but still a very good live mix which you will definitely appreciate too but both versions are indescribable! Welcome to the
👽👽🔥TOOL ARMY🔥👽👽
Do the studio album first
That album is nuts!
Pneuma is just epic!
Sure, this is one of their masterpieces. One of.
Oh boy, I'm getting pumped haha
I read an interview with Danny Carey, the drummer, and he says his goal is to put the listener in a trance. :) That way the music will do what it's supposed to do. Which is be a TOOL to enlighten you. His dad was a freemason, so he's real into that type of spirituality.
next song should be Descending....its....its just so beautiful.
Yes, such an EPIC track! One of their absolute best!
All of Tool’s stuff is open to interpretation, but this album resonates with me as a sort of guide on self-reflection and self-improvement. This song for me is about being open minded and growing as a person. The part you stopped at the end is where it usually gets emotionally overwhelming for me. The lyrics and the music combine in a way I don’t feel in many other songs.
You should listen to The Grudge. It’s the opening track and is about letting go of the things that hold us back. It’s an absolute banger.
Yes! This is my favorite song in the world. I've heard this hundreds of times and the guitar riff they go into after the line "....and still be a human" , sends me. I get goosebumps, it feels like the sound is washing over me, like I'm standing in a waterfall of it. Often times I tear up. It's the only music I've ever heard that does that to me. It's an overwhelming experience if I allow myself to be immersed in it. I sound like a crazy tool fan talking about it, but I'm glad I've finally seen someone else mention that moment.
Well said
IMO- greatest song ever written by the greatest band ever! I love how you felt it the first time. Now listen to it 100 more times!!
I couldn’t agree more....one of the best songs EVER created by man
Welcome to the Tool journey! I suggest “46 & 2”, “Right In Two” or “Intolerance” next
Sebs,dude! Great connection of embracing the random and your realization that with your new child, you cause undo stress on yourself by NOT embracing the random. Props for the real-time self analysis!
Absolutely LOVE this reaction dude 🤙🏻 listening to Tool my whole life, it’s such a beautiful thing to see someone listen to Tool and react for the first time. They are such an amazing band. Tool just always makes me feel more human when I listen to them; knowing that life is full of struggles and random and you can’t always be in control. Their songs always touches on something so real.
To keep this train rolling, I would recommend listening to The Pot, Schism, Sober, and Vicarious. Those tend to be Tools most popular songs, at least on RUclips. Each one of those songs have a profound meaning, and whether you pick up what they’re saying during the song or not, I would look up the meaning AFTER listening (whether it’s on camera or not).
Regardless of what you do, I’ll keep watching your vids, All Love Sebs 🤙🏻❤️
Dude, your reaction gave me chills, along with listening to this for the first time… I am blown away!
:) thanks for being here
Legit, I teared up...its unavoidable. when energies sync, time has no more relevance. We all connect with Seb energetically as we watch along, and his elation and excitement and emotionality, also, all just frequencies transmitted by the mind, and received, again regardless of time and space, and felt by anyone willing and able to participate, to allow themselves to be vulnerable and to feel real things and be ok with it. I couldn't agree more, this again was one of my favorite Tool reactions in a loonngg time. And I watch a metric ton of them. :0D
I'll be here for the whole TOOL ride together with many other i'm sure of it. I LOVE THIS
Tool is what got me into rock. Coming from rap and Mexican music I can honestly say Tool is as close to a spiritual experience when it grabs you as one can get from music.
Tool army is real because Tool is real.
Awesome. Your reaction is what we of the Tool Army live to see. Your had a visible physical reaction the moment you "got it". I have never before recommended a Tool song because each are so different and open to interpretation but you so impressed me with your reaction here is my once only recommendation for you Tool Pushit (Salival Live). I honestly believe it's a song that would be with you for life. Be prepared. The Tool Army has found you.
Damn bro imma be honest I click pretty much any new tool reaction I see and they are all great but this was an incredible reaction. Ive been brought to tears so many times at that ending part that tripped you up and seriously this song just motivates me so much in my life I am so happy all of the decisions I made in my life led up to me discovering this band lol. I added this to my GOAT videos of youtube playlist your reaction was that good. You just get it man. Excited to see the rest of your content!
This music is pure and true so it resonates universally
Subbed for more Tool reactions!
Being a norm and tool fan.. u r the best reactor by far!
Agreed!!!
Not sure how far down your Tool journey it will be, but I'm looking forward to your reaction to the holy Trinity - Disposition/Reflection/Triad
I interpret this song as being about the mystery of consciousness and what is achieivable with it. The protagonist goes from being born to attaining a higher level of awareness and desire for more. And musically, it just kicks ass. I've been listening to this for 20 years and I still become overwhelmed right around the point where you stopped and couldn't get your words out lol
Bro. I love your reactions to TOOL. Its like im experiencing them for the first time again with you. Ive been a fanatic since 1994, and yet it never gets old for me. LATERALUS was my spiritual awakening. Ive never questioned it since and ive never looked back. Welcome to the family!
These are casted spells guised as music, they are true Bards!
BEAUTIFULLY SAID!
Bring on more tool .you will not be disappointed
Great reaction! Enjoying you discover Tool. As you continue stick to the lyrical videos with the exception of Sober live.
Tool and Pink Floyd have always been my favorite for higher level artistry and experience.
Keep the Tool reactions coming bro and enjoy the ride - spiral out!..... Their music for me takes me somewhere else mentally. It's amazing!
Pneuma
Vicarious
Schism
46 & 2
The Grudge
Love your analysis and how ‘awake’ you are bruv seriously don’t hesitate to share whatever is in the moment for you. It’s beautiful, on point and very much appreciated..
I'd have to go with... 46&2 for your next listen. Or just start going through their discography. They range from a message of personal growth and evolution, dealing with the death of Maynard's mother, screaming anthems of anger all the way to a drug fueled story of alien abduction.
I love the fans of Tool. All this background info is awesome. Stay tuned.
@@SebsDuran the longer you are a fan of tool, the less you will like the fans of tool 🤣 but really, they are very passionate yet sometimes annoying. Mostly very friendly people but I've ran into a few giant d-bags at their live shows. Anyway tool is awesome so just forget everything else and enjoy the tunes
I'm seeing Harry Mack this week and Tool in January and I'm honestly not sure which I'm more excited about. They both represent peak talent, passion, and creativity in the music world, and though such different musical styles, they both invoke a similar feeling of spiritual expression through sound waves. Anyways, great reactions man, keep going. Spiral out.
I love that Spiral Out is a thing. Thanks for the comment :)
Super jelly on both counts lol
I'm seeing them January 25th!!!! I can't even put into words how excited I am!
Tool Army here, that emotional feeling you just had, has happened to all of us the first time we heard this song, and still does, so you just joined the Tool Army😁
You are in for an absolute treat man! Can't wait to witness your journey. My personal favorites are Lateralus, Rosetta Stoned (this one is possibly their most out there and complex song but just incredible), Vicarious (heavy and introspective) and Wings for Marie part 1 & 2 (need to be played together. A song about Maynard's mom who was in a coma for 27 years following a brain aneurysm. A masterpiece) You can't go wrong with any of them really although their early stuff from Undertow and Opiate really aren't as profound as their subsequent albums: Aenima, Lateralus, 10000 days and Fear Inoculum. Enjoy man! 🙏
Just a correction. It wasn't a coma rather that she was paralyzed for 27 years following the aneurysm 👍
@@owenc4188 Ahh I appreciate that! Reading it back now, I'm surprised I wrote coma because I know that's not what it was 😅 Thanks man
I’ve been a huge Tool fan since the late 90’s. I love watching people hear Tool for the first time. Really “hearing” them. It lets me live vicariously through your experience and I truly dig that. Enjoy Tool, they have so much thought provoking music, and I’m excited to see what you listen from them next.
Oh, congrats on the little one. My youngest is just a few years from graduating high school and I wish I could turn back the clock so I could appreciate being a parent more than I did when I was younger.
You’ve become my favorite reactor. Well done my friend! Can’t wait for the next Tool reaction!!!! You’re channel is going to explode with the Tool army once they get a glimpse of your passion
Brother you got a great spirit I love takin a walk with ya to start my day. Your the man keep up the great work..also tool changed my life so glad you found em
Spiritual embodied experience brother! This song does it to me every time, and especially the peak at the end there, you felt it! Bro, watching you discover tool is incredible! Enjoy the rabbit hole! Oh, and all the best with your daughter, mine just turned 18 and it’s been a wild but amazing ride. Blessings from a fellow meditator!
I can't even begin to estimate how many times I've heard this song. Hundreds for sure, maybe a thousand. I still notice new things on every listen.
Tool lyrics have been my therapy for 20+ years now
I love it when someone finally learns what “spiral-out” means. Lol. Awesome…favorite Tool song, and there’s a lot. Must listen again
Just echoing what many on your channel have already alluded to. What a treat it was to catch your reaction to the greatest musicians in our galaxy. The rabbit hole is deep and I envy you on so many levels. Your journey has begun my friend. Long live Tool ❤️🔥💪
Tool's music for me was like some sort of an awakening.
I was always into philosophy and poetry and arts. Always looking for new experiences and meeting new people. Try to soak up as many possibilities as possible.
So when I first encountered tool with the album undertow, I was fascinated by the pureness and rawness of the music and performance back in 92 when I had the unexpected privilege to watched them live at a festival.
Something just clicked and opened up a lot of different emotions that evening. Since then I followed their work. And matured along the lines of their journey. It still clicks now with their latest piece of art. I don't consider their work as music but as pieces of emotional art.
Nice to see you overwhelmed as well.
Have a nice journey!
Love your reactions man. Keep it real brother. Stay safe and enjoy TOOL!!
Welcome to the Tool army…I could tell from your first Tool reaction that you’ve found the apex of your music choices….it’s ok brother, I cried with you…❤️🇨🇦🙏
I just seen your first Tool reaction a few hours ago and NOW just seen this lol. I’m sure it’s already been said but your channel will EXPLODE if you dedicate to doing their discography starting from the beginning!!!
I cry often listening to them, and always feel refreshed. I don't question it but I can only describe it as a bath for my soul.
It is so awesome to see you react... thinking and feeling at the same time!
Seem lots of reviews. Enjoyed yours a lot. It feels genuine. Lots of tool fans talk about drugs but it’s not necessary at all. Tool, not just this song, is inspirational to me as well. I don’t count the timing I just enjoy the music. Next song? Any of them. But I have a feeling with a new child songs like “Jambi” may hit you nicely as it does me. Or even “Invincible” both tracks that many reviewers haven’t done often.
subbed bro! I'm enjoying myself watching you react and analyze!
One of the greatest rock songs ever recorded. Period. Oh, sub!
Just a heads up, you picked 2 of the most uplifting, inspiring, and spiritual songs by Tool, but Maynard has always preached the importance of paying as much attention to the negative as much as the positive, because if you just blindly ignore that negative side of your psyche, it will grow and fester behind your back and be released in unexpected and unpleasant ways. He's clearly a reader of Jungian depth psychology and individuation, as made blatantly clear in the song, 46+2, which talks about the importance of delving into your "shadow-self" as a form of healing and getting further along your path of individuation (integrating archetypes and realizing your true self in Jungian terms)...
My point being, don't expect all Tool songs to be this side of them. There are a lot of beautiful, uplifting, and spiritual songs like these, but there are also a lot of very dark, angry, and emotional songs by Tool that's basically their shadow-side (especially with their first 2 albums)... Just wanted to point that out before you listened to "Ticks and Leeches" and go, "THIS is Tool?!"
I just stumbled upon you today. I can't describe to you how the deep appreciation I have for this band. Watching you experience them for the first time is much like when you have a child and watching them experience things for the first time. You literally feel it all over again yourself. Welcome to Tool bud. Enjoy the journey.
They are touring right now, I highly suggest catching them live. Every time I've seen them, I leave speechless. Seeing them in January here in Sacramento.
I recommend doing a reaction to 10,000 days, Wings for Marie Pt 2. Still makes my eyes leak.
Welcome to the family
Tool and Maynard in general will do something to your soul... something good
You nailed it! There are 20 more songs awaiting - all great.
Heck yeah, this song is amazing for so many reasons. I've probably heard it a million times and I think I have a moment every time. I still get goose bumps. I already suggested some others but Pneuma (both studio and the live Danny Carey drum cam) is off their new album and its amazing. Odd time signatures, great lyrics about Spirit (Pneuma), and some badass drums.
We all had that same experience and you will continue to have that experience sometimes listening to Tool. Keep em coming! Spiral out!
I've seen Tool 4 times. On the 2002 tour I saw them play this live (plus the Trinity and oh man, Can't wait for you to react to those), and toward the end when all the reverb comes in Danney smashes his gong and the whole place just filled up. You had a spiritual experience here? You don't even know! I hope they play this when you see them in January. Quick trivia, someone already brought up the 9/8/7 part, but during that part at the end, the band is in 3/4 and Danney is in 4/4. Called polymeter, according to a drummer that reacted to the live drumcam version. Keep up what you are doing!
Had a similar experience. Only I had the pleasure of keeping my reactions to myself. Really love the treadmill idea, again. Love your vibe and authenticity.
Thanks for continuing with more Tool.
They are my favorite band of all time.
This album also has a trilogy. Dubbed "The Holy Trinity" by many fans. 3 songs in order. Disposition, Reflection and Triad.
I have personally been using the three since it has been released to cope with my stressors until recently. Discovered NF. His music hits home for me too. Has become my second favorite artist/features.
Imo: Tool has music for every mood and situation. They speak the truth. And make music that heals your soul.
For what its worth if your not hip to him already, look in to the artist Jelly Roll. If NF music touches you deep you'll probably get alot out of his music too. Guy has an endless rabbit hole of music that heals the soul and also just bangers of songs too. Between him and NF i can't imagine how many lives these guys music has touched.
@@jeremyphillips6229 your the second person today that has mentioned him to me. Thank you. I will. right now I'm going through her telling me she will never be That person for me but still wants to stay best friends... can't go backwards so I just lost the best part of me. Been through this before but this time it's lingering for an absurd amount of time and intensity compared to the other... false positives... Love at its worst is extremely painful 💔
I remember getting this album the day it released from Best Buy, I waited in line with all sorts of different types of people. Colors, Races, Ages, Incomes, Religions. I was 17. I remember thinking at the time how awesome it was that great music could bring together so many, and I knew it was something special. “On lookers” just saw a bunch of metal heads, but it was so much more than what you could see from the outside.
I got back in my car with the album, and opened the cover art (by the way get a physical copy, you will love it) and the art put my mind in a different place. It sucked me in as I sat in the Best Buy parking lot and listened to this masterpiece cover to cover. Back then it was all about the feeling the music gave me.
Fast forward 20 years, now I find my self watching these reaction videos to live that moment vicariously through people like yourself and I watch in in pure delight. Now I have started to look at the lyricism of Maynard and the time signatures on Danny, in great awe and amazement.
Thanks for sharing your reaction, it was awesome!
Tool Amy here, the first time I heard this I was brought to tears in the exact place you had your moment. Trust me there is a long line of people who had the same experience. There are very few bands that touch me like Tool does. If you ever get a chance to listen to another great band I recommend (Alice in Chains)with this band they are better live. I would start with any song from the concert live at The Moore Theatre. They are an epic rock band. Tool is my favorite, Alice in Chains second.
This is conscientiousness expanding music and helps you evolve. It's special. Thanks for the great reaction. 🙏
Welcome to the world of TOOL. Awesome reaction video mate, one of the best I have watched.
You have a very good perception and analysis. Your gonna gain a ton of subscribers. Keep up the Tool reactions!
You should have way more subscribers, but I feel like we're early to the party. You may be my favorite new reaction channel.
What a great reaction.
I love it when you're on the move during your show,I have the same, I cannot sit for longer than 5min for a reason,Tool is supergreat,all the best bro
I believe you are trying to describe a transcendental experience! I recommend you watch Ken Levigne who is also a YT reactor and it also blew his mind.
This has always been my favourite Tool song but it hits me so much harder since my best friend died far too early this year. RIP Andy and spiral out Seb.
I have meditated to Tool soooo many times. It is an amazing experience. So happy for your Tool journey.
Digging your Tool reactions bro. I’ve been a fan since 6th grade (I’m 39 now) and it’s a lot of fun to see people discover them for the first time. So many great songs, but after watching your first couple of reactions, I really think you would enjoy “Right In Two” lyrically and conceptually. After that “AEnema”, “The Pot”, and “Sober” are an absolute must
Great reaction man. For me this song is truly about exploring the unknown, to fight the urge to accept the mundane, to continually be searching for beauty to be in awe of.....Thanks for the upload. This is without a doubt one of their best!
I was already subscribed but.....I'M HERE FOR MORE TOOL 🤘🔥🔥🤘... WELCOME TO THE TOOL ARMY
really enjoyed watching you enjoy that song. from NL - Aus
That "weird moment" is what really got me to sub. I love seeing new Tool fans be born. Tool is a spiritual experience in and of itself, spiral out my friend.
I’ve been having emotional reactions to this song for over 20 years now. It’s one of the greats. It keeps getting better and better with every listen.
I can *SEE* you internalizing the music and lyrics in real time. Good for you, sir.
Welcome to the #ToolArmy brother.
Fantastic reaction! This song brings tears to my eyes...because of it's intricacy & beauty. Powerful, but lovely~
Welcome to the family!
We’ve all had that experience/feeling while listening to this song at the end.
Your mention of Jung makes me want to recommend 46&2, but your meditation makes me want to recommend Disposition/Reflection/Triad. Great reactions man, keep it up!
Since Tool is it’s own genre already, we should just call it Existential Metal. I’ve been listening to them since 1992/1993 when Opiate came out, and they’re my favorite band, all time. I’m surprised I just now thought of that lol Obviously I’m sure I’m not the first or the only person that’s thought that, but it just hit me when you were talking after the video was over. It needs to be a thing. This is like the third time I’ve watched this video lol I love watching you have the same revelations Tool has inspired in us over the last almost 30 years. 🖤🖤🖤
I actually HAVE meditated to this song (also Reflection & 3rd Eye... I'm probably forgetting a couple more here!) 😆 It's funny that you brought that up.
This track hits hard man. Much love to you brother.
Watched you Spiral Out and enjoyed every minute bro
I think you hit the nail on the head. Great music by masters of thier trade no matter the genre can be uplifting, heart wrenching, healing... I could go on and on. I love seeing that I'm not the only
when that bass begins to slide... gets me every time, that whole sequence.
Giddyup fella😎 Toolarmy and bless you and yours☀️
We live vicariously, again, for our first time watching you react for the first time to these songs that we hold dear and sacred to our hearts. As a side note, Masonry is replete with concepts of ascendancy. So glad to see that you witness that looking at the 3, 5, and 7. :)
I have always played the music I love to my two daughters, Tool, the white stripes, SOAD, RATM, clutch and so on. They took to it very early on, and now have a strong appreciation for music, try it on your daughters, and whenever I played Tool my moltese terrier would lay in front of the stereo, she certainly knew she liked.
The track does something different every time I listen. I'll zero in on a different lyrics, lick, or interpretation depending on my mental state, age, and life events.
Length of thee song as well ...all follows the golden spiral..
Master piece!!
This is awesome! Please more tool reactions
