Let me do an internet here:
Someone: "So-and-so is the best drummer in the world"
Danny Carey: "Hold my eight beers"
I like you sir because you seem genuinely intrigued with Tool's music whereas other reactors do it because it's trending.
Interesting story behind the song... From what I read they had Lateralus pretty much done and submitted a demo to the record company. They said "Where's the real heavy stuff?" Can you do a heavier song?" Tool wrote this in response. They just needed the proper motivation 😁
Where are you people getting this info? Sounds like rumors
They aren't rumors at all. However, I've always felt lyrically this was aimed at the band as well. The recording of this album is when the rift really formed within the band.
Toolshed76
Ive heard the same. I believe the couple minutes of down time is also message to the record label saying "here is something heavy, now we'll slow it down because we can" That is my opinion and not fact, but i like it.
Hence the lyric; "Is this what you wanted? Is this what you had in mind?"
merkleyperformance Another interpretation of those lyrics could be Maynard's disdain towards the other members for being stuck in the heavy cycle.
From what I've read danny carey hits his Tom's over 1200 times during this piece.
Maynard lost his voice for 2 weeks after recording this.
Parabol/Parabola
Yes! Make sure you listen to them together. They're separate tracks, but same song.
PLEASEEEEEEE
Absolutely a must
then afterwards, Live version of pushit from salival
Dtr mbly I agree with your choice. The second song duo should be Intermission into Jimmy. Sorry for Wings 1/2, but I put that one last. Personally I love Jimmy. Cant hate 10/4
I honestly just don’t know of another drummer that hits so hard but also so clean at the same time perfectly for the song everytime. There’s a ton of great drummers but this guy just dominates the kit in so many different ways 💯
Welcome to The Tool Army! Danny Carey is an octopus
Jambi! Vicarious! Reflection! 🤘
Seriously Jambi though ;-) We know everyone and their mom is doing that, but there's a reason for it.
Jordan Landis can’t do reflection unless you do it with disposition and triad all together. They play all three as one song live, as it’s meant to be heard
"How many arms does Danny Carey got?!" Octopus (Octopi?) have eight arms, the man is an Octopus, Danny Carey has 8 arms 👌
CYBER DEMON I always picture Kali playing through him lol 2 arms doesn't seem like enough.
"Have" does Danny Carrey "have" is the right word to use. Get your Grammer right.
Omar Chapo_34 its grammar not grammer 🙄
Omar Chapo_34 and ultimately, who gives a fuck
4 arms and 4 legs!
The smile on your face when listening to Tool says it all. I really dont think there's any band out there where all four members are equally important in the music.
Tool - Eulogy
Tool - Disposition/Reflection/Triad. In order, off of the album Lateralus! You are welcome!
Give Parabol/Parabola a try for more melody. Do them both together, or you will have the Toolheads after you. c= Vicarious is another one that is really interesting, but definitely more on the rhythmic side of their prowess.
For a guy who likes melody in his tracks you sure are picking the hardest songs of theirs, try Parabol/Parabola or Wings for Marie/10000 Days next those compositions have the whole package. 👊🤘....oops just caught the end thoughts good call on Wings/10000 Days
Yes the middle part labors a bit, but I think in the context of the whole album, it’s a more welcoming breathing spot and the length makes a bit more sense.
Apparently it was deliberately done at that length so radio stations couldn’t play it so I read somewhere on RUclips
46&2
Tool uses the key of D minor on almost all of their songs. This also allows Danny to tune all of his drums to the first/thrid/fifth note, i think he even tuned cymbals by cutting at them. Helps his drums to really fit into the mix
Ticks and Leeches is in E minor though :)
It is incredible seeing a man fall in love with Tool. I remember my first listen of this album. Long long ago
You should listen to parabol/parabola next! Very good reaction!
I think you'd really enjoy all the movements that Third Eye brings to the table. It's quite a journey, and my personal favorite Tool song.
That was the first time I've ever heard an English bloke utter the words, "gee whiz". I nearly fell out of my recliner! 😂😂
BTW, mate it's pronounced, eye-ne-ma. Cheers!
Ha! Me too! Didn't know I had it in me!🙄
Parabol/Parabola, Push It, Jambi, 46 & 2, Eon Blue Apocalypse/The Patient, these are songs off the top of my head that are more melodic of the Tool songs. I personally enjoy it all, so any Tool reaction for me isn't a disappointment.
Right In Two as well :)
I'm very glad you've done this! The Patient is still my favorite song by them. A hell of a lot of melody there.
your analogy is spot on but the message is more about the music industry ( Record Labels )
That smile after the drop haha says it all
How about that for drumming;)
Another set of Tool songs that go together are Disposition, Reflection, and Triad.
rx7dude2006 There's a reason Danny Carey is also referred to as The Human Octopus
REFLECTION!! Yes
This song was about execs pushing for more aggressive songs from the band, so Maynard wrote one they could shove down their throats to choke on.
To me, there is nothing else out there like Tool, they are phenomenal! You should consider checking out a few from the album Aenima, a few like H, 46&2, or Third Eye (you may have to work up to Third Eye, it is epic but, it's like nothing you have ever hear and it could be a little jarring). Anyway, glad to see you're going to keep working through Tool they and amazing band, as you are discovering.
I always love watching ticks and leeches reactions just for that crazy drumming bit at the end. I love watching people's reactions to that
DANNY, DANNY, DANNY!!!
THE PATIENT 👍🏽
99% of Tool's songs are in Dm, you're definitely correct. If any flaws can be found in their musicianship as a musician it's their lack of modulation and interesting key changes, however, what they are able to do in a single key is something incredible.
MawcDrums
Definately more into time manipulation.
This song is in E minor
he listens to Tool like he is listening to The Beatles... Tool is for me, who has been through hell and back. Sunny days come by Breaking out and into THE DIVINE!
Yeah, as you mentioned recurring themes, it reminded me of the actor playing the part of a doctor in the intro to Rosetta Stoned. He has a speaking part in the first track, Vicarious, playing a news reporter, reiterating the first verse.
It cracked me up in the first video when you said Mallard the duck, did it the second time in this one as well lol.
"Tool is messing with my mind" lol 🤘
Surprised I'm not seeing anyone recommend The Pot...maybe because it was too popular? Love the double entendres in it.
I was looking at your other reactions posted, and it's crazy how many more views the Tool songs get than any of the others. Love it
Thanks Jim. Tool nation about to go into ecstacy since they are releasing a new album soon
Tool's music Stands Up and Screams ,"DIVINE!".
One of the best drum performances in Rock music. That opening Tom groove is insane!
Try the live version of Tool's Pushit from the Album Salival. If you want melodic stuff, that's your jam.
Please react to Tool " Third Eye "
Or dont
That lil break near the 5 minute mark is just to look left and right, surveil the damage and refocus the attack.
There is some type subliminal messaging going on in the song. I hear something in the background during the slow part of the song.
Vicarious next? For me it's like a main song from Tool
I always remember the first song on the long awaited 10,000 days album.
I hope the first song on the even longer awaited next album will be just as memorable.
"How many arms does Danny Carey have?" That made me laugh. I've always said he has 6 arms. Also, I'm very happy that you are studying Wings for Marie before jumping into it. It must be understood in order to understand the emotions behind it. A beautifully sad masterpiece
Jim, I love the way you were honest about them laboring a bit in middle of track. I believe this really proves there brilliance in that they actually made us lose interest just long enough to scare us with the return.Your face says it all. Long Live Danny Carey
Vicarious, Right in two, Jambi, The Pot, Stinkfist, are also incredible. And yeah Tool construct their songs in a way where you would want to listen to an album alltogether instead of individual songs.
If you haven't done so yet, I HIGHLY recommend Wings for Marie(Part 1) and 10,000 Days (Wings, part 2).. It is a time investment, but totally worth it. Oh you just said, as I type, you do plan to do it, sweet, I will be waiting for it. Another great reaction, Jim!! Cheers!
Tool is messing with my mind lmao!! That’s awesome 👏🏽
You do understand that Tool will get you in the end, no sense fighting it, in the end, you WILL go down the Tool hole! Might as well be willing!
You really should check out third eye by Tool. That song is an experience that shouldn't be overlooked.
Love your reactions. Keep up the great work!
React to tool cover of= No Quarter
Yes yes yes!!
The whole Salival album!
That thing you did, where you chose your number one Tool song and then quickly corrected? Yeah, welcome to the club, buddy.
I don't have a favorite, I have 15 favorites
Sober has consistently been my No.1 for about 15 years.
My No.2 place & down do change around a lot though.
I agree with what you said on sticking to the root note - most Tool songs are in they key of D, usually riff based and stick around D minor/pentatonic/blues riffs.
There are however a couple of songs that, in terms of the guitar and melody work stray away from that to some extent - Right in two, Stinkfist, Eulogy, Pushit (live from Salival)..
Aha! Good to know, thanks 😁
"How many arms is Danny Carey got?", u said it my dude.
Opiate, Hush, Sweat!!! How about something from their first, hardest and best album?! I'm partial to the first album I ever purchased for myself!!
"Tool is messing with my mind" ah good, as intended then haha
Parabol/Parabola next, or maybe 46&2. Enjoy!
Rosetta Stoned isn't my favorite song, but you can't just listen to it without hearing Lost Keys in front of it.
I feel you are more into the complex harmonics of music, and yes I am a tool fan of course.
So I would suggest "Parabol/Parabola" or "reflection" or "right in two".
Love your channel by the way, and I was intrigued by your other comments on other styles of music. Keep up the good work.
Jambi or parabola
Enjoyable video. I'm glad to hear that you're digging T00L!! One of the best bands EVER -- Yes, EVER!!! Up there with Zepp!!
Simply put: Jim, I'm here for the Tool. Enjoy your reactions to this band. If I may recommend a section of your journey: Jambi, Vicarious, Parabol/Parabola and then you should be ready for Third Eye. Thanks, eh.
Ok, but you must also know that I'm not here only for Tool! Enjoy them when they come, maybe you'll see/hear something else along the way you like! Thanks for listening and commenting.
can you do Tool - Pushit (Salival - Live)
Awesome channel
You seem to keep picking their semi-obscure stuff. You gotta listen to parabol parabola
Danny Carrey is far and away the best musician in the band. He studied tabla playing from a master tabla player in India for a time. He's quite prolific. Honestly one of the best living drummers in the industry.
You look genuinely happy with this.
Bottom, third eye, and right in two. My favorite out of this exceedingly exceptional band. They have not made a song I don’t love.
wings for marie will make you cry if you learn the backstory first
Great review again Jim! Especially love your reaction to the drumming. I feel like I learn something when I watch your reviews man :).
I was thinking, since you've done a few songs off Lateralus already and seem to kind of have a feel for the album, why not just finish Lateralus out by doing individual reviews just like this one. Then from their, pick whether to move on to 10,000 Days or AEnima or whatever you want, and maybe do a full album live stream (I would recommend doing AEnima, but just my two cents:)). Just some thoughts to consider, cheers!
Vicarious from Tool if I haven't just entirely missed it
I think the laboring bit in the middle is a middle finger to the record label.
Another great one from Mallard!
Sir, when one is at a loss for words they say "Gee Whiz." I have done it myself on occasion :)
Pretty sure this was about the record label telling them to get heavier so they could keep pace with the other bands who were getting bigger with them in the late 90’s
You should react to Tool - Jimmy
They don't call him the octopus for nothing
Tool - Bottom is my recommendation.
46 and 2
Tool? Either D or E Aeolean of Fridgean (sp?). 4 root modes. Easy to learn with a couple years on bass. The tone and new strings and all that play a part. So does the pedal board. But his board is far from unattainable. Digitech makes new whammies!
yessssss awesome! finally :D I still recommend to you: Katatonia - "Takeover" or Katatonia - "Old heart Falls". First one has awesome timings and guitars, 2nd one is very emotional but super cool
ofc i love that tool song as a drummer xD i bet you can imagine
As i think about it.... if you like Melodys and Feeling in Songs that much (What i do too, absolutly, thats why im more a Melodic drummer than a full to the face metal drummer) Then Old Heard Falls would fit much better for you than Takeover from Katatonia
I feel that 46&2 would be a Tool song that you can get behind.. it is complex and everyone in the band is contributing beautifully.
Yay Tool!
go jim go!
Loved 💙
I love Tool as much as the next guy, but let's give the due some more variety. I'd recommend Grizzly Bear - The Knife
The Patient
Dawn of Ashes -Poisoning The Step of Babel (Reaction) Next!!
Intermission and Jimmy. Old but underappreciated and fertile ground for a reaction.
Check out Special Providence/ Northern Lights. They are a fantastic Instrumental Prog rock band from Hungary.
Ok, thanks. I've not heard of them.
Great song review. hello from Switzerland.
Nice one Jim. Thanks!
Dont stop this. Please
Please don’t wait another 3 weeks before another Tool song!
Great reaction once again.
Love your reactions and commentary man. Would like to request Mr. Invisible by Thank You Scientist and Skies of the Millennium Night by Sikth.
