- Skullz reacts to Cold and Ugly (live) by Tool for the first time
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.

After milking this short ep (joking) you have quite the shift in track duration ahead 😂
Right?
And Maynard participation.
And lack of self importance
Just a little bit of a shift…
That “Bob Marley wannabe,” was actually Zack de la Rocha from Rage Against the Machine who Tool has a long history with. Adam and Tom went to high school together and Maynard lived with Tom when he first moved to LA.
Another guy just pointed out that this claim was never confirmed. His counter claim; Morello was the only Rage member present. Another possibility was that of a random guy picking fights in the audience.
This is also what I've read and came here to say
I’m sure someone has already said this, but if not, here you go. The reason why these songs on opiate sound like undertow, it’s because it basically is. Tool had a number of songs ready to go to record, they chose the hardest most in your face songs they had for opiate, the rest were put on undertow. Early love shows before undertow was recorded, they were playing sober, bottom, crawl away, and swamp song. Only a handful of “new songs” were written for undertow. Been loving this Tool journey so far!
Can't wait for next week. I love this song, but "Jerk Off" is one of my all time Tool favs.
Used to be a bunch of assholes that lived in this part of the building here, but we systematically removed them like you would any kind of termite or roach...😃
I NEED Skullz to react to Jerk Off at Coachella.
@@Itsunclegabby i say he does a 2 in 1 video first the studio then the 1999 live version
It's definitely one of their best songs.
The "throw that bob Marley wanna be MFER out of here" was Maynard joking with Zach de la Rocha, tool was opening for rage against the machine.
This is incorrect, the only person from RATM that was allegedly there at the Loft was Tom Morello, as he went to High school with Adam and they were buddies
It was probably a pot smoker in the audience
Yeah I'd heard two possibilities. The other being a dreaded guy who was either trying to start a mosh, or picking fights with others in the audience.
@@vaevictis_ Freakin’ dope sniffers probably!! 😂🤣
What I wouldn't give for Adam Jones to use this guitar tone again.
You definitely need to see them live. It will change your life for the good and bad. It will show you what a live band should sound like and the quality of sound is amazing. That being said. After you see TOOL, you compare other bands. Not style of music, but musically talented and sound wise. And NO ONE and I mean NO ONE compares to TOOL live. Just get a ticket when they come close. You won’t regret it. I promise.
Can confirm
Each song in this EP is better than the one before, just keeps getting better. Jerf Off is one of my favorites
I`m not sure but i`ve read somewhere that it was recorded in studio and live crowd is people in studio when they recorded this song.
I said it in the live chat I’ll say it again tool a.k.a. the only band in history that were masters of their craft when they first started
I see it as a woman with trauma or insecurities who won't let people in through fear. The penetrate line (like a lot of Tools lyrics has double meaning. She is promiscuous because it helps her validate her self and feel beautiful. But she can't bare the thought of being close to someone so they can't hurt her. It's really quite a sad song if it weren't for the energy
It would be a long journey, but doing this same Tool discovery with Gojira (7 albums) or Pantera (5 studio, 1 live) would be outstanding.
The final 2 tracks of this album have always been my favorites. Looking forward to it!
Another great reaction, the penetrate verse I always took it as penetrating through the wall she puts up not allowing anything to get through.
In a word-Yes. They absolutely were that good live. Every single time I've seen them
the bob marley wanna be m-f-r was zack de la rocha from RATM lol. it was in jest.
True story
the bar they played in had roughly 8 people lol....there is a live video of there performance of Opiate
That is devastating 😢
Still one of my favorite albums ever made. I still just pick up my guitar and play through this from start to finish.
The way they wrote and arranged this song is masterful
Skullz after TOOLS discography you have to dive into PUSCIFER and A PERFECT CIRCLE. 🤞✌️
dude the live performance of cold and ugly on the youtube video if you search 'tool oklahoma 2002' gives me goosebumps. if you like this i highly recommend listening to that version. its the first song they play.
also, you have the most insightful commentary/reactions and i really appreciate how you point out things i have missed even after listening to their music for a couple decades. i look forward to tool tuesdays.
I think you mentioned it. One of the biggest areas of growth is Maynard lyrically. He writes and delivers the message more artistically. and emotionally, bigger and nuanced. I feel if Maynard rewrote the song today we would've felt the struggle more. Maybe from her pov.
Bruh, you gotta check out Tool Live in Philadelphia 1992. Some guy shot really great footage while they played for an audience of like 20 people in a bar. Amazing footage 🤘🤘
Any time I put Tool on, I always start with this EP and roll through their work in chronological order. Hearing the growth with each album is stunning.
Just like their song this was too short! Love your work, keep going brother!
Phenomenal journey with you special skullz thanku so much love an God bless always x
Can't sit still listening to that song. Yeah
#ToolArmy
Check out Tool 1992 in Philadelphia. Them at the beginning at a bar with what sounds like 10 people there. Amazing performance. Crazy to see them at the beginning in front of very people with what's to come for their future.
Is that the clip with Zach De La Rocha right at the front of the crowd?
Haven't listened to this in a while and totally forgot how awesome this song is.
I can not wait for this!!!🔥🔥
Peace friend!
✌️🇨🇦🤘
excellent track....ahhhhh the good ol days
Went to see Front242 and accidentally saw Tool at Lollapalooza. Been a super cereal fan ever since; lost count how many times I've been able to see them live. Their live show is in my all time top three, without a doubt!
This is still one of my favorite early Tool songs. When I'm having a bad day or feeling angry, this always hits the spot.
So, the live recordings off the Opiate EP were from a 1991 New Years Eve show at the Jello Loft (Green Jello)...
The guys in Tool all initially formed (loosely) in the late 80s/early 90s. They all met through the band Green Jello, which was more of funny punk rock band that would dress up in costumes (somewhat like Gwar). The climate in the LA rock scene at that period of time was ruled by "hair metal" bands (Motley Crue, Poison, Ratt, LA Guns, etc)... Green Jello had a cult following that was kind of the counter to that movement.
Adam Jones was a bass player before Tool, as well as Paul D'Amour was initially a guitar player. They begged Danny to practice and audition at his rehearsal space (still currently Tool's rehearsal space over 30 years later). They tried auditioning a few drummers, but they would pull no-shows and often asked Danny to fill in.... they'd maybe rehearse once a week, if that, so Danny never took it serious and just played whatever he wanted.
Early on, Tool bonded more from the LA punk scene in the 80s (Black Flag, X, Circle Jerks, The Germs)... they viewed the LA "hair metal" scene as completely vapid and insincere. Tool were just a few misfits that wanted to be provocative and make sincere art. It was never intended to be a serious thing at first... Danny even told his friends to not bother going to their early shows because "this band probably isn't going anywhere!" lol
Since you kinda went back to Opiate after the first 4 official albums.....
May I suggest a fun little detour?
Check out the live performance of Maynard's first band. I think it was called C.A.D. Stood for Children of the Anachronistic Dynasty or something equally ridiculous. The video is....amazing. Just hilarious. Really shows how FAR Maynard had come in terms of musical talent once Tool started. Because in this video he doesn't sound awful.....but I certainly wouldn't say he sounds good lol. Also....they play a song that might sound familiar.....it's a super early version of Sober. Although played much faster....and worse lol.
And.....it's one of the weirdest bands you'll ever see, visually speaking. It's been a while....but from what I remember the guitarist looked like an angsty teen Kurt Cobain wannabe, the bass player looked like Eddie Murphy...complete with geri-curl, a shiny satin blouse(??), and the requisit 80s head-less bass guitar, the drummer was some beefy norm-core 80s mullet dude, and Maynard...........sported an undercut/mohawk/mullet, a flashy dangling earring, and a skin-tight spandex body suit.
It's hands down one of the most horrifying things I've ever seen. It brings me so much joy. You gotta check it out! :D
Oh my gosh...yes! I was equal parts horrified and amused watching that video! 🤔😱🤣🤦♀️
I’m here for it skullz ✌🏽😉🎶🌀
Skullz, you have to listen and react to Tools cover of Led Zeppelin's "No quarter". That's one of their best songs and I'm not sure anyone has suggested that on your channel yet.
Love it. Keep Going
the Bob Marley m-effer he's talking about is Zach de la Rocha, from rage.
Loving this step sideways in your journey. (I won't say 'step backwards', because this is your progression, not theirs.)
After Lateralus, I rarely returned to this album. I might taste of the title track and the - spoiler! - weird hidden track, but I had forgotten how much I still love the rest of it.
Thank you for reminding me.
🤘🤘🤘
Still loving this journey and digging the manor in which you do what you do... I love Tool .. and I learned a lot that I didn't know by watching you.. thanks for that... looking forward to seeing fear ( Innoculum)
Yeah this is so raw musically. But so polished. Like, it has a bootleg cassette tape sound to it. If I listen close enough I can hear 7empest. Can't understate the growth of Adam, Danny, even Paul to Undertow.
Another great one Skullz my suggestion keep listening to all Tool I’ve listen to undertow hundreds of times and there is still hear things I have not caught or heard before.
You might wanna do the new version of Opiate before going to Fear Inoculum...🤔
It would be an appetizer of new tool on an old song, a familiar song under their new matured light.🧐
I was un-subscribed, not notified, and I forgot it was Tuesday !
At least I didn't have to deal with the anticipation all day !
RUclips did you dirty lol. Glad you found your way back 🤘
You still need to do Jerk off right? One of Maynard’s best screams!
Totally agree with everything you just said Skullz, oh and i love this song. In your face raw. :)
Hey bro, thanks for the reaction, love this song 🤘
The Bob Marley wannabe Maynard was referring to is Zach de la Rocha from Rage Against the Machine
drum lessons? love.
next two are the real bangers, lets go skullz!
maybe we could get a double header today and leave opiate for next week? :)
Yee haw! The next track is epic! ✌️
I can't remember if you mentioned this, but have you thought about reacting to Salival? That album is full of live songs, I'm sure you know this.
Don't distract him, we need Fear Innoculom!
Here for it!
The "Bob Marley wannabe motherfucker" was possibly Zack de la Rocha and MJK was just fuckin with him
Great reaction fam 🔥🔥🔥
Wish I could paste the picture I have of Maynard and his friend, the wannabe Bob Marley. It's epic!
Everything was simpler when we were young.... yet we don’t know the definition of today’s complex feelings.... catering to send the message out
Rumor has it that the “Bob Marley lookin motherfucker” was actually Zack De La Rocha from Rage, who is his buddy.
You know that Opiate was before Undertow and some of the live music is likely a bar or small venue
I think Maynard is always aware of double (or multiple) meanings and sometimes intends both meanings with both serious and facetious intent. He may have meant both psychological/mental defense penetration and sexual penetration.
I 100% agree simply because it seems to consistently be the case with a lot of their songs 💯 That doesn't happen by accident!
This has some serious Rollins Band vibes about it.
Just a thought: once Tool is finally done, maybe move on to A Perfect Circle? Maynard is the singer for that band as well and they have a bit of a Tool vibe, while still being their own amazing thing as well. Can’t recommend enough
5:06
This sounds like...I don't belong to this denomination, so please forgive me, but...a Baptist (?) praise break. Like, it literally takes me back to my childhood, hearing that.
Ah back in the days when Maynard just pointed the finger at *everyone else’s* hypocrisy. The arrogance is palpable, but so damn narly.
This was my scapegoat anthem for trying to get along with Kim Kardashians
For some reason every time you go “nuts” I think of John Leguizamo bc he was in Ice Age. He only did three good movies. Ice Age being one, Romeo & Juliet, and Super Mario Bros. That movie was the shit
👍👍👍👍👍
I always saw this song as simply exemplary of more based narcissistic tendency and not really a narrative about Maynard being a part of it; other than having the same nagging compulsions. Which is why he uses a pretty known stereotype of a woman who is materialistic and narcissistic as a wall to shield her from her fears. It’s more like it’s not that he’s involved with someone so much as he’s using an example of something he’s repulsed by to explain his feelings
🔧 🎶 🔥
All my neighbours listen to Tool all the time , they have no choice 😂
Turn it up brother! 🤘🌀🔥
As much as I appreciate MJK, if you go back & listen to his first musical project CAD, you will hear someone who has some good song structure but someone who has not quite found their voice yet
Bart's hand will fall off during Fear Innoculom !
I never want to spoil anything but...Danny gets better !
What maynard said in the beggining of the song?
He said "get that Bob Marley wanna be mother fucker outta here"
Why'd you stop doing The Downward Spiral?
Seriously. They got signed whiplash fast.
Love your TOOL reactions. Your rap into are cringe
What up Skullz, Great reaction, once again, I liked when you were referencing the evolution of TOOL , don’t forget we Devolve as well and not always in that order 😂 I believe I read when they recorded these live tracks if I’m not wrong it might have been in the small warehouse style loft they lived in next to Danny Carrie! I could be wrong though don’t quote me on that lol but yeah it sounds like maybe there was 100 to 150 people there! Take care brother until next week stay safe and stay healthy🤘🏼🔧🤘🏼
Much love bro! 🤘
@@Skullzrapper you could probably extrapolate the lyrics on this with the knowledge that this was recorded in LA at Green Jello's practice space in the warehouse they rented and if you added in the knowledge of the lyric from Aenema "fuck these dysfunctional, insecure actresses" so I personally think he was referring to the holly wood/LA female population in general lol.....also the comment at the beginning is rumored to be him referring to Zach from Rage Against the Machine who they were friends with, so basically Maynard talking shit about a friend, I can actually envision in my mind Zach flipping him off as he says it just from my own experience of hanging out with people in bands all hanging out together, they tend to talk mad shit to each other constantly, and it spills into the mic at times lol
You still need to do Jerk off right? One of Maynard’s best screams!
