His limb independence is amazing!
And he plays it like it's nothing - a walk in the park. His doubles slay me with their perfection. I started playing drums a year and a half ago, and doubles are my kryptonite.
His snare is made by VK drums and is 14"×8" made of cast bronze and weighs 44lbs. A little info on his Mandala pads they have 128 strike points arranged in 7 concentric circle zones with each zone able to be programmed tonally individually. He also uses a Korg KD-1 wave drum that he has programmed to give the sound of a tabla. The keyboard instrument above his 40" Paiste symphonic gong is called a Marimba Lumina, you'll be able to hear it being played in Invincible. Probably more info then you wanted.🤣 Really enjoying your reaction since I've found you. Will definitely be back for more.✌🤘
Solid contribution bro! Thank you!
Great info. Never heard any of that.
Thanks for educating us!
Ok but what we REALLY need to know about is his gong!
Jeff Matthews what are you, his drum tech? 😉Cheers for all the info mate!
Danny is the metronome for everything Tool does. His ability to keep multiple timings simultaneously is pretty much perfect.
During the middle section 10:40, he goes from using 5 drums, down to 4, 3 then finally 2 before the end of the section. It creates a build up you don't consciously feel. Genius.
My favorite comment I saw was “Danny’s left hand is one of the top 3 drummers in the world”…
Danny's drumsticks look like hummingbird wings in his hands. ✌
Even slowed down to 50% they are still a blur.
I love the musicality of Danny. His playing is not only physically impressive with his crazy independence, but what he chooses to play just fits the songs so well. We couldn’t imagine Tool without Danny just like Zeppelin without Bonzo. Not true for most bands… would anyone notice or care if say Bon Jovi changed drummers? I know I wouldn’t, but maybe that’s just me.
All of the bands I love would definitely not be the same without the drummer. Maybe that's why - when I finally decided to learn to play an instrument as an adult - that I chose the drums. Any band where the drummer is interchangeable is not a band I like - with probably a few exceptions.
It sometimes almost feels like Tool has a rhythm singer and a lead drummer. That's what I love about this band, every member is an individual with an own mind and sometimes it almost feels like they are dragging the listener into four different directions, and just before you feel like it's falling apart, they come together again.
It's jazz-like really! Each musician doing their own thing rythm count wise, that would throw off most mortal musicians and then Danny who manages 4 time different time signatures, one for each limb. How the F does that even work inside his brain...
I saw a comment here on RUclips somewhere that said something like In Tool, all the band members are doing a solo, all at once, and somehow make it work.
Haha, I knew you couldn't wait to watch the drum cam. Can't wait for Decending... That's a top track on this album for me
God that song is a masterpiece, the more I listen to it the more emotional it gets for me.
"Poetry in motion" and impeccable coordination. Things that are completely foreign to me 😂. Definitely a master at his craft.
No click track, the way music should be. I was lucky to be at this show in Boston. I love your analysis on these videoes, your knowledge of music combined with your pure enjoyment. Well done!
And for the record, he's 60 years old, 58 when this video was made........absolute machine!
58 years and 188 days :-)
Came here to mention this... What an unbelievable talent Danny Carey is 🐙🥁🛠️
Yeah his natural ability and obvious dedication and effort he puts into his craft is amazing. Is prodigy correct? I think so.
Have you seen him at the 2020 Grammy? He’s super humble and down to earth. A real person.
Most talented drummer alive and (IMO) one of the top 5 drummers to ever sit behind a kit.
“Poetry in motion” - Perfect comment, couldn’t agree more. 🤟🏼
Danny is a monster
Best drummer ever hands down
That intro song was a certified banger. Well done.
Danny is what is used to calibrate all electronic click aids.
12:22 Exactly! That's what I thought; Danny often plays a melody on percussion!
I'm glad you decided to go right into this video next. I'm amazed by this performance every time I watch it. My brain can't comprehend how he's able to run a separate rhythm with every limb at the same time. He's truly one of the greats.
Best drummer in the world since we lost Neil pert last year. Truly a master of his craft at work. Great video dude
Best drummer, even before we lost Neil Pert, imo, but they are both greats of the last century.
Danny is JAZZED trained. 🤯💯🔥✌
Every thing you have said about this video is almost exactly what I thought after watching several times . And yes the audio track is very vague on all the things Danny is doing ... awsome
He's the metal version of Bill Bruford, one of his influences. Bill used to mix electronic with acoustic drums, Rototoms and various percussion, and in his last years with Earthworks played a center hi-hat.
Danny is mind-blowing! The feel of the drums when you see them live punches right through you
Eyes (and ears) full of wonder, indeed.
Recently found you via Tool reaction, analysis, decomposition etc. As a musical enthusiast and mathematically oriented lurker, have to say your rich experienced introspective lends such great depth to the fabric of what Tool weaves seemingly effortlessly.
Your honest reactions are eye watering to us as well, keep it up; never be embarrassed PLEASE. Thing is, you capture the essence of what us neophytes are experiencing, cleverly explaining it. Your explanations are just as succinct and direct as Tool is in their arrangements.
Keep it going, and looking forward to exploring your channel. You have ridiculous talent and it shows in your explanations. (As a Shakespearian aside, looking for Miles Davis, Coltrane, old Sabbath, Zeppelin what have ya. Greetings from NZ)
I love how it seems like he's just jamming out, but there is a circular movement to the whole thing he spreads out with the doubles on almost every drum in his peripherals and as it starts coming to its Crescendo you start seeing him come back to Center he starts with just one note on that drum right in front of him and then he starts coming in more and more incorporating the drums directly in front of him until it's time for the full boom.
That build up is orgasmic!
Totally dude! I noticed that the first time I watched it! His right hand is like 4-4-4-4-3-3-3-2-2-1-1-1 breakdown.
Thanks JW,great video.
Reason why Danny does'nt use a click.......Danny is the click.
It’s clear that from your comments during this that you’re a special talent yourself. You see things that most people don’t. Respect from Australia.
Cheers, dude! Very kind of you to say so.
I’m in the 4th row, center, at this show. SO amazing.
Could you actually see Danny in any way?
@@Marnee4191 This show was 4 1/2 years ago (holy shit, where has the time gone??) so I don’t recall exactly; but his drum set is elevated above the main level of the stage, plus his kit as you know is massive. I could see enough to tell he was wearing a Celtics jersey. After intermission he comes back out in a Lakers jersey and plays it up to the Boston crowd, haha. I did see Danny, Justin, and Adam prior to the show after they did sound check. Oh and many years ago I met Danny at a Pigmy Love Circus show in Boston at a local club. That was a lot of fun. For the final song they had everyone jump on the stage and dance around with the band.
Great reaction to this album. Loved your personal perspective. It's been great to watch this band evolve and mature with each new album, always pushing boundaries in new way's.
He never plays with a click track, can't wait to see them again in January.
There are times in many Tool songs where to me Adam takes on Dannys parts where most bands would have a guitar solo Danny does the fills.Love your reactions cant wait till u do Tempest Adam goes off it will give you chills i promise
Love that you do analysis of songs. It is a much richer video than just reactions like some other channels. Always fun to watch someone else who is a musical fan first and foremost.
There are a couple bands I would love to see you breakdown that would be new to the channel. Album versions are probably best:
Thank You Scientist - Jazz fusion band. "Feed the horses" is a popular one.
Death - As a metal fan you have probably heard them before. I think their final album is best. Would be great if you can analyze "Spirit Crusher" or "Flesh and the power it holds."
Deftones - "Passenger" is one of my favorites. Love the chorus in this song. Great melody to it, great build up, and interesting lyrics.
Amazing reaction!! I knew you’d really appreciate this!
You said it brotha, No click for TOOL for live or studio sessions. Pure feel and emotion like you said.
Every time I watch these reactions I react the same way as someone watching it for the first time. To me he’s the best to ever do it
Cheers dude. Appreciate your kind words! 🤘
I swear Danny Carey has 3 brains - 1 normal and 1 each for his arms and legs. Just phenomenal.......want to say talent, which is true, but that takes away from the no doubt insane amount of work he's put in to become as good as he is!! Thanks for the video dude!
If I'm not mistaken, I believe the VK Drums set the snare is from is called "Monad", and that they made a replica production model snare called, "7empest".
Lots of reactions to this incredible performance but yours is the best. Well done!
Excellent reaction and commentary, your musical expertise shines through.
One of the more impressive things about danny/this song is that all the drum pads are programmed with different sounds. Up to 4 different sounds on each pad and he has to hit them in the right spot in order to get the sound he wants...He does it effortlessly without even looking. Amazing
I have been watching your Tool Fear Innoculum videos. You are amazing on so many levels. Your "ear" for picking up all of the subtleties and the different time changes is awesome. Above all of those wonderful things is your character and genuine presence. You are an amazing human being. I enjoy listening to what you have to say. Blessings and thanks
Ridiculously kind comment. Thank you very much! 😊
He's playing swiss army triplets in that solo part, I don't know if he's playing as a 16th subdivision or keeping 8th notes triplets as well as the original rudiment. Nice reaction! Cheers from Argentina
What blows me away is this is ONE song in their set. Guys a monster.
I love your reaction channel, and humbly offer this piece of nomenclature. At about the 11:37 mark you mention double strokes...he's been using what's called a Swiss Triplet for nearly this entire section.
I started drumming when I was 12. I toured for a few years with a Latin jazz ensemble after high school. I'm still learning how to make an acoustic guitar sound good while playing Pneuma. It's a lifelong pursuit I suspect. Thank you again for your posts here.
So glad you went right into this video! Great song. I am excited about you getting to "Invincible" which in is my favorite track of the album.
You can't help but to be mesmerized.
The Octopus at work , epic !!! Thanks. A couple of suggestions if you want to delve into the heavier prog stuff, assuming you haven't heard these before (either for reaction of just personal enjoyment) - The new Rivers of Nihil album > the Work, Slice the Cake's epic concept album (very Lord of the rings) > Odyssey to the West, The Ocean's three album series charting the geological ages of the earth > Pelagial & Phanerozoic I & II and Wilderun's 2019 album > Veil of Imagination. Enjoy and keep up the great work.
Cheers friend! Your a natural who deserves more follows. Legit. ✌️🇨🇦🤘

Stumbled upon your channel watching/listening to Tool reaction videos. I totally appreciate your musical expertise in breaking down and reacting to the music. You are giving the musical "thoughts" to the music of a band that REQUIRES musical "thought". SPIRAL OUT!!
You’re a breath of fresh air. Top notch 💯
Strange, but it feels like enjoying this with a friend. 🤘Great videos, and great inputs you give.

Oh nice I didn't expect this so soon after the album reaction.
Love the channel, bro. Looking forward to hearing your reactions to the rest of the album.
ADAM JONES is Danny's Click track
The band is following Danny's lead.
Danny Carey💚 one of the best
#Tool
Your intro is awesome
He can change the pitch of the electronic drum pads per song with that rack that's beside him. It is almost like a keyboard each drum pad is a certain key note.
UNREAL is he not? First time I watched this, IT JUST BLEW ME AWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
You FEELIN IT? Welcome aboard brother!!!
Wow just found your channel, just superb, spot on squire, love the deconstruction of the entire track, as an ex muso love the entire gambit, time for me to now binge on your other quality work, you also have your audio total waxed on your channel (no surprise there 😜)
Thank you, Andrew!
The studio version is unreal. Whatever it is beyond unreal.. that's what this is
Danny's the GOAT! 😉
Came here for the Tool reactions. Liked , subscribed and commented!! Xo
Legend! Thank you very much. 😊🤘
Vic Firth has an Artist Spotlight Series on RUclips on Danny Carey. Here’s a link to part 2/3, which starts with him talking about his drum kit. I think you’d find it really interesting. Parts 1 & 3 are cool, too and totally worth the 5 minutes each of your time.
Cool review. Thanks for sharing it.
ruclips.net/video/Bb5siEiAYKs/видео.html
You gotta check out Thomas Lang's playthrough of "Time"! It's mesmerizing, much like Danny's playthrough.
I just love Danny Carey !! Thanks
Saw it a few months ago..this close up (not a playthrough, it's a live recording of the full band) is as insane as the playing. :)
Yaaasss his snappy wrists have me weak 😍😍😍
Danny Carry is a master! Poetry in motion…. For me Luke Holland (so young… so good could very well become the next up and coming master) Danny Carry his entire body seems to breathe into the next beat flawlessly! As a trained musician it’s easy to recognize greatness in others when you know they have a gift you could never attain no matter how hard you worked! I have seen this so many times and as a musician it’s was a very long time ago I realized I would never be anything other than mediocre… because the greats are born with a “gift”!
Enjoyed your reaction. I don’t think you can fully appreciate what he’s doing, especially during the long breakdown section from just listening to the recording. Now every time I listen to this song, I see this video in my head. 😎
You should check Vicarious and Right in Two aswell.
How he can speed up and slow down in-between the ones.... incredible.
Exactly.
Danny is me HERO!!
Danny Carey rubbed a genie lamp, and his first wish was to be the GOAT at drums,and the genie asked for his other 2 wishes, and he just said "nah, we're good."
Shhh Danny’s weaving !!
I enjoy your vids, thanks ! 😊
John Bonham's drum tech worked with Danny for years. ✌
Here again lol
I was there! Boston show. This old fart is something else.
Danny carry is the best dummer Iv ever seen with the exception of Rush dummer Danny is the most unique dummer on this planet a legend and that guitarist omgosh then Maynard vocals add them all three in a bowl through in that basest and you have Magic soup
10th May 1961 Danny was born
This was their first time playing the song since they recorded the album, eight months prior. This performance was on 14th November 2019, in Boston Massachusetts.
Some of us aren’t musicians and dont understand how they develop these sounds
I hear everybody say Zeppelin when the talk abou Tool especially Danny. To me I hear Floyd just as well. A lot of Nick Mason sounding in tools drums
Please don’t skip over “ culling voices “. It is the most underrated track and I can tell you will really appreciate it.
The look at 7:43 sums up listening to TOOL
It's impossible to watch Danny Carey and not have a face that suggests you're in immense pain as the brain struggles to comprehend what it's seeing.
Lol. Fair point. Although, if you watch my other videos you'll quickly see that my expression is linked to my enjoyment. The more contorted it gets the more I'm loving it. No idea why my face does that, but I'm not the only one! Thanks for watching.
ty, ty, ty! :-*
Danny Carey has picked up the torch from Neal Peart as the Drummer's Drummer. I hate to use absolutes like "greatest drummer alive" or GOAT, because I'm sure there are some amazing drummers out there. Still, Carey is the guy everyone just loves to watch play.
Feel free to show us some guitar tips or tricks about the music, ✌️
Curious, have you done Tina S.? If not check her out. Stevie Vai, for the love of god, and Jason Becker, Altitudes. And her beethoven
POV Drumbs Stewart Copeland of Police 💯🔥✌
An 8 armed metronome!! LOL
"no spring chicken"
homeboy is lit your grandfather...
I'm barely 40 and I get tired trying to understand what he is doing.
Lol he's amazing. I think you think I'm younger than I am though, I'm 38.
@@JWSoundworks2okay, dad, but still, he is a beast.
He doesn't play to a click. I don't remember who it was, or which song, but I saw a YT video where the RUclipsr ran a Tool song through sound software to help transcribe it. There was a definite human variance to the tempo that would not have been there if Danny played to a click.
Same thing has been done with old Van Halen albums. The songs vary in tempo.
Look at his elbow level it basically never changes I don't mean it's in the same position I mean it's almost in the exact same spot in frame lol
The octopus
This is how music sounds like... Lucifer must be proud
Caligula would grin.
