Hold my pipe while I put 7empest on repeat...16 minutes is the warm-up. I will say Tool is your best value on a jukebox..7empest and Invincible get you almost a half hour of music. 🤘😎🤘
That tempo slow down and then the drop...I don't know if I have ever heard a band firing on all cylinders as hard as that. Ever. And the little bass fill at the end of the phrases, fuckin chef's kiss
Dude, no lie, you give very insightful reactions to these tool songs. I've heard all these songs countless times. Despite that you still show me new ways to understand Tool's music. Well done, sir.
I said it before, you gotta sit through all of Disgustipated. It’s part of the journey and a rite of passage as a Tool fan…and not the last time you will be trolled by Maynard and Co. It’s a meditative exercise in patience, and the WTF moment at the end is hard to describe. We’re here for it if you are!
Doesnt matter how many times I've heard these songs. I will always hang around for the long haul. I quite enjoy experiencing first impressions of songs I love vicariously though others. As I can never hear this greatness for the first time ever again.
No matter how many times I listen to this song, the slow down transition into "I'm back down. I'm in the undertow" always gets me. As for Disgustipated, don't break it up when reacting to get the full experience. If you feel the need to cut some of it out for length it's not really a big deal IMO. On the CD it would skip through a bunch of silent tracks after Flood until it reached Disgustipated at 69.
Absolutely. I read your message after I wrote my comment. This album was absolutely the best one they made. Then I heard the cry of the carrots lol then crickets lol. I thought my head unto was broke. I spent good money for that head unit I was almost pisd lol. But coke to find out it was the hidden track.
We (TOOL army) have infiltrated the channel. Welcome... let's SPIRAL OUT together.... again. Check out some Soundgarden for me as well bro.! Loving the early stages of your channel bro.! Keep it rolling brotha!
Another great reaction. I see this one as being about addiction and I think Undertow is a great metaphor. Initially the first couple of times he tries it the feeling is "twice as clear as heaven" and "twice as loud as reason". The third time in the pay offs are greatly reduced "half as high as heaven" and "half as clear as reason" and he can't escape.
Yeah it's almost like a realization that they're becoming a slave to the substance which is why I got that more sinister vibe as the song progressed. Cool observation 💯
Disgustapated has a bonus track included in it. But there is a long period of silence before the bonus part starts and it's at the very end of the track and is very short. I'm thinking 5 plus minutes of crickets chirping. So you should definitely do disgustapated as just one song.
Don't cut it up ..... you'll stay in gauged and prepare you for the evolution. The last song of kinda of foreshadows the direction they are going . Are you gonna to visit the ep. that came before Undertow.? The pure raw beginnings ? if not at least check out Hush and then Opiate the title track and last sound from the ep. It'll reaffirm comments made in this video. Hush applies to this cancel society and it's more than 30 years old. Thanks another great reaction. Looking forward to the next
It'll be well worth. They are even angrier and little more raw , but you'll see that their was something special there. Opiate is still one of my favorite , it was great seeing it performed live again a few weeks ago. The subject matter of both Hush and Opiate I think we can definitely still apply to todays society ... if you do go back on the opening of one of the tracks when Maynard says a like about the Bob Marley looking motherfucker , he is joking at Zack de la Roach , lead singer of Rage Against the Machine I'm not naming the song so you still have surprises but I know that line is questioned a lot
I haven't listened to this album in so long and it's been a totally different experience coming back to it with you and having you break it down. I'm in for this whole thing. When you get to Wings for Marie you'll have to do 2 parts together and it will be like a 40 minute video. We're all cool with that. Also, you should revisit Jimmy from Aenima and Judith from APC before hitting that song.
I remember when I first bought this cd, I had just bought a Macintosh Head unti for my truck, and I thought it was broken because its started running upwards on the tracks until it got to track 69. The cry of the carrots was awesome then of course crickets, which felt like an hour but it was only 8 minutes or something. This album was lit. Epic, probably the best in my opinion that they made
on the part where the song slowed down it’s supposed to represent falling down of addiction, brilliant how they connect the instrumentation of the song with the lyrics
I think it was the docu series Metal Evolution where I heard Tool described as the bridge between Grunge and Metal. Metal fans loved them and Grunge fans just the same, where a lot of the other Grunge bands didn't draw that mutual respect as much. That said, there's a lot of the Undertow album that could almost fit on Sound Garden's album Badmotorfinger. That slow down towards the end of the song Undertow always reminds me of the slow down in Rusty Cage. Obviousl, as Tool progressed beyond Undertow, they got farther away from the Grunge sound. Just something that always comes to my mind when listening to Undertow.
When I got into TOOL Maynards lyrics struck me as nearly supernatural with how good they were/are. Love it so much. Love your break downs and btw it's "silt" 😂. #TOOL
Another great reaction....another great song that doesn't get the attention it deserves! As for Disgustipated, the song itself is only about 6 or 7 minutes. After this album though, be ready for some longer tracks. But you don't have to worry about if your vids are too long....if you play it, we will come! Can't wait for the next one, brother! ✌️
I've gone back to the beginning of your TooL dive so yes, it's older vid.... the ending there makes me feel like that undertow grabbed me by my feet and pulled me under, and i slowly started to die.... the genius in their delivery.
I like that the rhythms have a way of walking forward, then getting pulled back to the beginning with all these stutters and false starts and truncated loops.
Disgustipated had scared the chap out of me. Chilling one summer night, nice buzz on, the first section finishes and I zone out. The song continues for about 7 minutes just the sound of night. Then out of nowhere the serial killer, that's the way I always thought of him, begins to speak. You will just about jump out of your Skin. Great job.. spiral out....keep going
@@Skullzrapper It's my birthday and I keep telling myself, Annie, it's just a number, ur still rocking and rolling old lady🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I hope you're having a great weekend 😄😄🙂
Wow..."Right on the Head" Skullz. Best observations of a Tool master piece...Danny is an alien, if you look closely a third arm morphs from his torso! (Dad joke lol.) Get too close to tidal undertows, and you'll get sucked in...Didn't see Opiate2 in your reaction list....you're gonna love this adventure and the vid. is sci fi magic. Fantastic S.
Yep I'm am now your subscriber I really like the way you break it down by talking about what they are talking about and also talk about how great the music is love it.... keep em coming buddy
Check out gun by soundgarden. It starts off very slow and gradually speeds up throughout the entire song. Pretty badass keep up the good work as I said last comment LOL
This and Flood are my favorites from Undertow. Watching someone’s reaction who can truly appreciate it NEVER gets old! The bass player on the first 2 albums, and half of the third, is Paul D’Amour, and his style’s a good bit different than Justin Chancellor, who’s been with the band since the mid 90s. As far as his playing is concerned, this song is my favorite from him. I play bass myself, and if you go toward the end right after they slow down you’ll hear a couple of curveballs on the low end that are very cool. Simple, but cool nonetheless. The bass is in an odd tuning as well: BADG, which makes for one helluva sloppy, floppy low string! 😂 Also, if you’d like to hear another one from the early days that’s quite angry and aggressive look for “Jerk-Off”. Loving these reaction videos, man! 🤙🏼
‘Undertow’ is the most underrated song of their discography, IMO. Not the best. Not my favorite. Just the most underrated. I never hear anyone say how awesome this song is.
Famous last words of someone before and then after hearing a TOOL song for the first time: “Noooooo…..don’t tell me that it’s over?!?” Great interpretation of this song, Skullz!!! And another really great review!!!!!!!

TRUST ME… the TOOL army will sit through every song no matter how long it is!
Facts
facts. dont break them up. ride the spiral. the #ToolArmy will come.
Truth
Truth lol
I don't think real Tool fans like Undertow or Opiate lol....
You think the Tool army wouldn’t hang for a 16-min Tool song? Hold my pipe.
Bruh He's just getting started?
Fucking awesome comment !!
Hold my pipe while I put 7empest on repeat...16 minutes is the warm-up. I will say Tool is your best value on a jukebox..7empest and Invincible get you almost a half hour of music. 🤘😎🤘

Seriously one of the wildest things I've heard 🔥🔥🔥
FYI the lyric is "deep and rich like 'silt' on a riverbed"
lol..in fairness slit can kinda work too and he just flipped the the letters..or the lyrics were written wrong
A lot of toolthusiasts are pedants.
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz it's surely not pedantic to point out the correct lyrics to someone whose analyzing a song.
Not much slit on the riverbed I’m going for
That's SILT on a river bed, not slit but it's all good. Keep going. It only gets better.
Disgustipated is the Apocalypse of the Carrots...not a song but fucking hilarious...Life feeds on Life...THIS IS NECESSARY....suck on that vegans..😂😂😂
Feeds on life, feeds on life, feeds on life, feeds on life! This is necessary, . THESE ARE THE CRY OF THE CARROTS! love it
First! As a member of the Tool Army and a homie you know I'll be here for this shizz any time.
Appreciate it bro! Much love! 🤘
SILT bro you're killin me 😂
This... Is.... NECESSARY!
im 48, i grew up on this band and this probably one the best songs out of their entire catalogue
Dude, no lie, you give very insightful reactions to these tool songs. I've heard all these songs countless times. Despite that you still show me new ways to understand Tool's music. Well done, sir.
That's awesome! Glad I could offer an interesting perspective! 🤘
Well said. Same for me. Been here since the beginning and have gained a completely new understanding/appreciation for all of their works.
I said it before, you gotta sit through all of Disgustipated. It’s part of the journey and a rite of passage as a Tool fan…and not the last time you will be trolled by Maynard and Co. It’s a meditative exercise in patience, and the WTF moment at the end is hard to describe. We’re here for it if you are!
All of it.
In a world of instant gratification, patience is a virtue. This is necessary!
Maynard is a lyrical genius.
#ToolArmy #Spiralout

I'm really enjoying your Tool reactions. They're top notch.
For real! Maynards an animal! Glad you're enjoying the reactions! 💯
@@Skullzrapper you said it perfectly. He paints his lyrics.
Nothing makes me happier than seeing people discover and appreciate Tool. Keep it up my man. Spiral Out.
Happy you enjoyed the video! 🤘🔥
#ToolArmy #SpiralOut
Hell yeah! Shout out for your approach to reacting to Tool. I can't wait for Aenima. You are about to experience some new Tool moods.
🤘👁️👁️👁️🤘
Appreciate it dude! I can't wait!
🔥🔥🔥
Yes! Third Eye for sure!
"SILT" on a river bed.
It's that superfine wet sand that flows like liquid.
I started doubting myself. I was like, "It's 'silt' right?" Wait, what if it's not? Dude, if it's not I am stealing that from myself....nope it's silt
I'd sit with you thru any TOOL song no matter how long it is
🔥🔥🔥
Doesnt matter how many times I've heard these songs. I will always hang around for the long haul. I quite enjoy experiencing first impressions of songs I love vicariously though others. As I can never hear this greatness for the first time ever again.
Sup fam 🤟😎 Let's goooo 🔥🔥
Hey bro! Hope everything's good! 🤘
That last 20-30 seconds of this song is another level of kick ass. Has been since I first heard it 30 years ago.
No matter how many times I listen to this song, the slow down transition into "I'm back down. I'm in the undertow" always gets me.
As for Disgustipated, don't break it up when reacting to get the full experience. If you feel the need to cut some of it out for length it's not really a big deal IMO. On the CD it would skip through a bunch of silent tracks after Flood until it reached Disgustipated at 69.

Any song revolving around water, undertow, flood and anema Danny recreates water with the drums. Absolutely brilliant.
Holy fuck this whole album is the struggle with addiction. it's pretty much a journey of the addict's fight with their demons of addiction.
Fuck yeah, one of my favorites...thanks bro bro 🤘
Much love! 🤘
Everytime I can't help but air guitar and air drum
This album is soo good. Love Unter... Undertow! I am really looking forward to when you get to 46 & 2.
I like to keep the outtakes when I can 🤣 Is 46 & 2 on the next album?
@@Skullzrapper Yes it is.
Ah yes finally my favorite track on the album
I can’t wait for you to get to Rosetta Stoned that song will fuck you up.
Next two songs off undertow are just as good as all the rest 🌀
We (TOOL army) have infiltrated the channel. Welcome... let's SPIRAL OUT together.... again. Check out some Soundgarden for me as well bro.! Loving the early stages of your channel bro.! Keep it rolling brotha!

Definitely an album highlight!!!

I love that you started with this album and going in order!!! Please do it this way for whole discography!
Don't cut it up ..... you'll stay in gauged and prepare you for the evolution. The last song of kinda of foreshadows the direction they are going .

EUUUUUUUUUU
PHOOOOOOOO

Their original bassist Paul D'Amour from this album and Opiate is now the bassist for Ministry apparently. Wild.

Yeah I fucked that one up 😂
"The bassist, he really stuck out to me there." God I can't wait to see how he reacts to Justin.

Hands down the best reactor to this band …kill the lyrics…awesome to watch and rewatch
Absolutely brilliant song, one of the best from this era
You’re a very thoughtful young man and you have a god given talent for insight. Reaction could not be more pro.
You CAN’T skip Opiate (their first EP) Danny said he REALLY pushed his playing on it and later regretted it kind of.
I like that the rhythms have a way of walking forward, then getting pulled back to the beginning with all these stutters and false starts and truncated loops.
I’m loving revisiting this album with you man! Great incite and interpretations 🙌
Euphoria…the feeling you get right before you drown
Man, I didn't even think of that. Nice catch 💯🤘🌀
wish they brought this one back live
This would amazing live 🔥
that goes for so much of their stuff. they played swamp song when i saw them for the first time, for example. tool concerts are way to short.
Totally agree brilliant writing ..an what a brilliant breakdown absolutely amazing love this thanku so much love and God bless always lovely skullz x

As a bassist myself, this is one helluva track. There are a few other songs that have the same tuning, BADG, prison sex is one which is just awesome!
@@kevincase2473 yup! Prison Sex was the song I was thinking about in a BADG tuning. Undertow’s DADG. Apologies 😂🤷🏻♂️

Undertow is an awesome song! I wish they would remaster it with a little better engineering.
‘Undertow’ is the most underrated song of their discography, IMO.
Not the best. Not my favorite. Just the most underrated. I never hear anyone say how awesome this song is.
