Best reaction artist on youtube right here, BAR NONE. Man you are the best. I have listened to them all, you are the best. Rock on ! I hope you hit a million plus subs.
This is always one of my favorites for people discovering TOOL. The entire premise of the song is expanding your mind and immersing yourself in new experiences. You listening to this for the first time is literally the embodiment of the song itself. Keep it up bro.
That and it's amazing how many references to other things there are embedded in the lyrics of this song. For example, when Maynard says "Feed my Will" he in many way means "Will" in the same way Aleister Crowley defines "Will" as your "True Self."
Maynard James Keenan’s vocals during the first few minutes of Lateralus form a Fibonacci sequence. The number of syllables progress to the sixth step, then back down to the first step; up to the seventh step, and then back to the fourth step: [1] black[1] then [2] white are [3] all I see [5] in my infancy [8] red and yellow then came to be [5] reaching out to me [3] lets me see [2] there is [1] so [1] much [2] more and [3] beckons me [5] to look through to these [8] infinite possibilities [13] as below so above and beyond I imagine [8] drawn outside the lines of reason [5] push the envelope [3] watch it bend The Fibonacci sequence shares a relationship with Phi, the golden ratio. The golden ratio is used to describe spirals, which are mentioned several times in the lyrics: “Swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be human”, “Spiral out, keep going” twice, and “Spiral out, keep going.” five times. Also, Keenan first begins singing 1 minute and 37 seconds into the song, which equates to 1.617 minutes (the golden ratio = approximately 1.618). The time signatures of the chorus change from 9/8 to 8/8 to 7/8, symbolizing a spiral. In addition, the number 987 is part of the Fibonacci sequence.
Btw its not just the lyrics. Nearly every mathematical measure bout the instruments is compatible with the fibonacci sequence as well. In really complex ways to the point where i wanna make a joke about divine intervention but it wouldnt really be a joke. NOBODY MAKES MUSIC LIKE THIS!!! Its unfathomable how they made lyrics, atnosphere, sound and MATH come together full circle with the message and philosophy.
the whole album is set up this way, down to the arrangement of the songs, the music, every effin thing, pretty insane if you think about it it's a mathematical masterpiece
A perfect circle - Orestes It's the same lead singer from Tool and it happens to be one of the most hypnotic songs I've ever heard. I recommend this song to anyone in the comments.
Parabol+Parabola, Schism, The grudge, sober, 10.000 days, H, Roseta Stonned...damn theres so much from Tool that will blow your mind... Cannot wait too see whats next! Spiral out and keep going!
It is so refreshing to watch someone authentically being pulled in and mesmerized by this music for the first time. You can see it gettting it's meat hooks in you, and I appreciate it so much! I was there once, too. You can never get that first impression (and be blown away) TWICE, but THIS is the closest thing! Awesome man! You got a new sub. Keep going!
Every Tool album has a distinct sound and feeling man. Their earlier work was harder and as they aged they became more and more complex in their music. The one constant though is Maynard's voice and lyrical prowess. And with all the suggestions for Tool songs here in the comments, they are all GOOD. There is no bad Tool song.
You've introduced me to a couple new artists and for that I thank you. It's wicked to see someone discover Tool for the first time also. My first time was 1993 and I finally saw them live in 2001. Keep enjoying the tunes and we will continue to enjoy your reactions.
You have been wanting to do an album review of tool. This is the one!!!!!! Don't listen to anymore songs off it. Pull the trigger man!!!! We will all watch it
If/when he gets to Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned, he’s not gonna know what to do with himself. His mind is no doubt going to be a nuclear wasteland. Lose his shit. Flawless Victory guaranteed.
Dude you are TRULY the King of Reactions and Tool can never be categorized as anything but TOOL!!!!!We don't listen to Tool,We EXPERIENCE BRILLIANCE!!!!
Man bro, this song was made to the mathematical Fibonacci sequence. You have to watch the "Lyrics and meaning" version of this. It will blow your mind.
Leon Russell I understand, but this man has more depth of thought. He understands how broad in perspective MJK's lyrics are without the details surrounding how their music is created. And put together, I think he'd get it, and love it. BTW... The guys make the music, before Maynard writes the lyrics, so these men are on a different playing field when it comes to their music and lyrics. That's why they are my favorite band ever.
I love your Tool reactions. You get it. They're just different. Hard to put your finger on it. Musically they find a way to take simple chord progression and twist it like a rubics cube in every different combination and package it all up into a masterpiece. And Maynard's lyrics are so infectious. From the writing to delivery. Actually I find that everything they play I've somehow felt inside me at some point and then there it is, they shown a light on it, it's amazing! You got to check out Puscifer. Maynard's personal music project. His last album, Money Shot is unbelievable.
Lateralus is one of the best songs and albums of the last 2-3 decades! Other great tracks from that album: The Grudge, Eon Blue Apocalypse/The Patient, Schism, Parabol/Parabola, Ticks n' Leeches
TOOL put this song together based off of the Fibonacci number sequence. Not in regards to what they are singing about but how they put everything together and the rhythm they sing in
Its quite simple actually. Once you realize the snare always follows the 2nd opening of the hi hat it's simple to learn. Plus its just a one measure pattern in 5. The snare is always on 4. probably the easiest part of the song for the drums actually. The only difficultly is that the Bass and Guitar are playing in different meters so in a live setting you would have to focus on your rhythm and mostly ignore the others.
As much as I love Danny Carey, there are people who can learn to play anything with enough practice. However those same people can't create the brilliance like this to begin with. There a vid of a fucking 11 year old who basically nails Ticks and Leeches, for example.
Watching you enjoy tool takes me back to when I first heard these songs for the first time. Goosebumps!! I love seeing someone really get into it for the first time. Thanks for the videos. I love watching them
I wrote a 6 page essay on this song for university a few months ago, best thing I have ever written. Can't wait to see you react to The Grudge, it will blow your mind.
Glad you've discovered and are enjoying TOOL. I've been enjoying and going to dozens of their concerts from the first Lollapalooza, Coachella to countless other events. Keep on listening and loving true greatness!
i love seeing the joy in you at discovering new music. you have a genuine appreciation for all aspects of the songs you are witnessing for the first time and the work that goes into them
If you go back on 46&2, watch the most viewed lyric video on it (like 33 million) because it gives a lot of insight into the meanings in the lyrics during the song and you will be amazed.
Tool by far is and always will be my favorite band. I have to show gratitude because their music helped get through some very ruff times in life. I was listening today and was brought to your vids.subbing.
This is awesome! I respect people with great musical tastes. I like that you rewind the same parts over and over. It shows that you’re really into the music. Your channel is one of my favorites. ❤️👍🏽🙌🏽
The history of all this album is this: when that guys travel to costa rica the band goes to ceremony of ayahuasca, in the same ceremony the guys know alex grey, the song lateralius is the conversation between the chaman and the singer in front of 15 guys include alex grey
I've seen Tool live 10 times. For what its worth the only song they have played all 10 times is Stinkfist. I'd would like to see you review Tool - jimmy or Hooker With a Penis next. By the way, you have me singing "Don DeMarco" all day at the show room in the dealership i work for. Or saying finish him, when i go out to close a deal.
I glad that you react to “Lateralus” bro!! Amazing, now i hope you can see “Lateralus Explanation of the song” to understand more about the writting process of Tool in all aspect!! Cheers and respect From Chile!!!
And then you dissect the lyrics, and you realize all of that detail was to troll you, because the song is about over-analyzation and reading too much into things.
Or you could just appricate the song for what it is.... Fucking awesome. Don't overthink, just enjoy. 💚 Then look into the meaning and disect if that is what you want to do. Whatever floats your boat ✌
You’re right, it’s poetry. Each song feels like a story and they all have that build up and climax I love, just when you think they can’t blow your mind any more your pupils just blow open. Wait until you see them live, it really radiates through you
I think reading the lyrics to right in two would give the song a deeper meaning.... it speaks so much to human nature just my opinion. Keep up your awesome videos and keep smiling!!!
King KTF I totally get how you are blown away by TOOL ... I've been listening to metal all my life and I just discovered TOOL a couple of months ago and they are by far the best band i have ever heard ... they take music to a new level ... I can't get enough of them.
Hey man I’m loving your reactions keep em going pls!! Lyric videos are cool on Tool because of the crazy amount of thought that Maynard puts in every word but this way you miss a lot of the amazing things they do with the instruments. For example my favorite part is after the solo when they start playing in diferent rythms within the guitar, bass and drums to unsync and create tension only to be liberated at a single beat were they all sync in to start the process again. That I find genious!! Hope you take a listen to that and keep growing and getting more reactions out there!! Cheers from Spain!
Dude, listen to King Crimson, perfect mix between tool and pink floyd, they are the fathers of Progressive Rock from 1969. The band is always evolving and changing members chosen by their mastermind Robert Fripp. The band is now formed by 1 guitarrist and vocalist, fripp in the guitar and keys, a saxofonist, a bassist and THRE FUCKING DRUMMERS. One of them is Gavin Rossdale, my favorite drummer, who is also known for playing in Porcupine Tree, a great progressive metal band you should check, and in Storm Corrosion, a bizarre band that creates dark but yet celestial atmospheres. In that band also play Steven wilson, todays most famous progressive rock composer and producer and Mikael Akerfeldt, the great guitarrist and singer from Opeth, an amazing swedish Progressive Death Metal band that mix Death with acoustic folkclorical music... You have got to check them out!! He also appears in Repentance, a song from Dream Theater, and in Bloodbath, a great death metal band. You may also like Komara, a side project from Patt mastelotto (king crimsons drummer) and Tony Levin (also from King Crimson, current bassist and one of the most interesting bassist youll see, who also plays on Liquid Tension Experiment, an instrumental band with members of Dream Theater), the visual art work of that album is made by Adam Jones, guitarrist of Tool hhaha Hope i didnt overwhelm anyone and can provide useful information lol
The first time I saw this song performed live, it changed my life. It was 11/3/01 (the first time I saw them live) and I still have a vivid visual of Maynard’s movements throughout. It was mesmerizing.
It means go after the girl you want, go after the life you want, don't shy away from anything embrace the random. CARPE DIEM!!!! Do Deftones Digital Bath next
I’ve been a faithful Tool fan since 95 when I heard them at middle school in the parking lot waiting on the bus to go to a baseball game. That moment forever changed my life. So glad you found Tool or basically anything Maynard touches.
Tool is touring in May and you know you should be there! The structure of this song is INSANE. Music & lyrics written with a mathematical sequence in mind. 1,1,2,3,5,8,13, which is the beginning of the Fibonacci Sequence. Line by line the number of syllables match the sequence. The time sequences also of the music also follow the sequence. The Fibonacci sequence creates spirals, a little hard to explain here, but things spiral out based on the sequence. Most things grow in spirals. Our Universe and everything moving in it moves in spirals. It's really fascinating stuff! The original name for this song was '987' which is contained in the Fibonacci sequence. 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,610,987... So here's the first number of lines in the song... Black then White are All I see In my Infancy Red & Yellow then came to be Reaching Out to Me Let's me see That's a 1,1,2,3,5,8,5,3 sequence. The sequence continues with the next verse. An amazing amount of thought went in to create this masterpiece. But try not to overthink it ;) Forty Six & 2 and Right in Two are both kick ass, but this is the SHIT!
This song is like a powerbar to the mind...to the soul...deeper than any other song ever created. That's what I have felt as a listener for years to this song. Its inspirational while being mystical. So unique.
Really loving your reaction videos, and seeing someone discover the awesomeness and mind-altering powers of Tool for the first time. Keep on doing you, my bruh!
Bro it's awesome watching someone evolve into a Tool fan. I have been a fan of Tool since I first heard them in the early 90's. Saw them live for the first time in 1997 right after ÆNIMA came out. It was one of the best shows I have seen still to this day. I have seen them multiple times. The one show that stood out the most to me was Tool at Bonnaroo in 2007. I had some really good LSD that I had saved just for the occasion. One of the best nights of my life. I wish I could put into words what that show means to me. Tom Morello from Rage Against The Machine came out and played with them toward the end of the show. Life changing experience to say the least.
Thank you!!! We all expected Lateralus ... great right? please try it with "Right where it belongs" of NIN (Nine inch nails) and you will discover another great band. Please please please 🤘
Writing this before I watch. This is one of the greatest songs in human history and i'm so excited to watch you experience this! Keep up the good work brotha
This will be looked back on as masterpiece. IT is the golden ration on rythm, lyric tempo, much more butrhe lyric meaning of the universe and the golden rule the spiral that controls it ALL.
Dude, I love this. Tool is one of favorite bands of all time, and lateralus is my favorite album. To see someone hear it for the first time is awesome, and I'm jealous bro lol. I respect what you're doing. You're not only breaking it down from the other side of the music world, your showing other hip hop fans some real shit in something maybe they never heard before. 👍
My dude. I really love that you actually appreciate tool. I see so many hip hop enthusiasts reacting to tool and they just act hype and they dont really have any thing to say about it or react to any of the instrumentals. Welcome to the family my friend. Spiral out. keep going.
Commenting before even watching. Thank you for doing this song. Not sure if you've seen me floating around in your Tool videos, but I've been suggesting this one to you since you started with Tool. Now, time to enjoy the video! Peace!
This song has so many layers, on the surface it’s about nature because it’s based on the formula that creates the Fibonacci spiral. The Fibonacci spiral is seen in things as small as snail shells and as large as galaxies, our finger length is also based on the same mathematical structure. Tool also touches on being born as a small scared blind being.
Best reaction artist on youtube right here, BAR NONE. Man you are the best. I have listened to them all, you are the best. Rock on ! I hope you hit a million plus subs.
Ilu
Best hard rock song out these imo
Ruckus Malone amen 🙏🏻
Agreed. Worst part about watching these is all the other reactors UA-cam recommends.
Yep!
You said, "Tool is my favorite...for right now."
Bruh, when Tool becomes your favorite, Tool stays your favorite forever.
Indeed true
Truth!
10/4
And that’s the truth
This is 10,000% true
Ain’t no way any real tool fan is gonna stop you from running that shit back. Do it every time. OGT
Yup. Every time, Im like "Please do" ... ... "bruh"
*helps that I love MK
Hey buddy 😂
All the way back to 92
You can point that fucking finger up your AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSS
With a dope Beastie tee, nipple rings, new tattoos.
This is always one of my favorites for people discovering TOOL. The entire premise of the song is expanding your mind and immersing yourself in new experiences. You listening to this for the first time is literally the embodiment of the song itself. Keep it up bro.
That and it's amazing how many references to other things there are embedded in the lyrics of this song. For example, when Maynard says "Feed my Will" he in many way means "Will" in the same way Aleister Crowley defines "Will" as your "True Self."
My first tool song and i remember i listened just lateralus song a month.
The Grudge is good for that too.
"I love slow intros"
"show me some drum solos."
This man is going to really like some Tool.
Maynard James Keenan’s vocals during the first few minutes of Lateralus form a Fibonacci sequence. The number of syllables progress to the sixth step, then back down to the first step; up to the seventh step, and then back to the fourth step:
[1] black[1] then
[2] white are
[3] all I see
[5] in my infancy
[8] red and yellow then came to be
[5] reaching out to me
[3] lets me see
[2] there is
[1] so
[1] much
[2] more and
[3] beckons me
[5] to look through to these
[8] infinite possibilities
[13] as below so above and beyond I imagine
[8] drawn outside the lines of reason
[5] push the envelope
[3] watch it bend
The Fibonacci sequence shares a relationship with Phi, the golden ratio. The golden ratio is used to describe spirals, which are mentioned several times in the lyrics:
“Swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be human”, “Spiral out, keep going” twice, and “Spiral out, keep going.” five times. Also, Keenan first begins singing 1 minute and 37 seconds into the song, which equates to 1.617 minutes (the golden ratio = approximately 1.618).
The time signatures of the chorus change from 9/8 to 8/8 to 7/8, symbolizing a spiral. In addition, the number 987 is part of the Fibonacci sequence.
PessottiHimself Jesus Christ this blew my mind
Unreal. Thank you for this.
This ☝️
Btw its not just the lyrics. Nearly every mathematical measure bout the instruments is compatible with the fibonacci sequence as well. In really complex ways to the point where i wanna make a joke about divine intervention but it wouldnt really be a joke. NOBODY MAKES MUSIC LIKE THIS!!! Its unfathomable how they made lyrics, atnosphere, sound and MATH come together full circle with the message and philosophy.
the whole album is set up this way, down to the arrangement of the songs, the music, every effin thing, pretty insane if you think about it
it's a mathematical masterpiece
TOOL loves to build tension. Every song they play, they build tension then releases it so beautifully! Can you give them a flawless victory?
It's called a crescendo.
Yeah, i know that.
'You Lied' builds tension perfectly with that solo into the final scream... totally different atmosphere that song but oh man... goosebumps..
@@kylecarsten1456 You don't have to build tension with only crescendo.
pretty much why the shining is iconic
TOOL, the thinking man's metal. My absolute favorite band ever! lovin watching you experience it all for the first time!!
A perfect circle - Orestes
It's the same lead singer from Tool and it happens to be one of the most hypnotic songs I've ever heard. I recommend this song to anyone in the comments.
That's my favourite one from them.
Oh, that song shakes my core. He should totally react to APC.
And Magdalena
that live performance at stone and echo though!!!!
Same song, live at red rocks its epic
I hope you go back and listen with headphones. So much detail in the production.
Parabol+Parabola, Schism, The grudge, sober, 10.000 days, H, Roseta Stonned...damn theres so much from Tool that will blow your mind... Cannot wait too see whats next! Spiral out and keep going!
It is so refreshing to watch someone authentically being pulled in and mesmerized by this music for the first time. You can see it gettting it's meat hooks in you, and I appreciate it so much! I was there once, too. You can never get that first impression (and be blown away) TWICE, but THIS is the closest thing! Awesome man! You got a new sub. Keep going!
Yes my man, Schism or The Grudge from this same album will take you to another level from Tool.
Yep, both amazing
Olly Hudson I love the patient and their remake of no quarter
The Grudge is so good. I'm looking forward to that one lol
Can’t wait to see his reaction to Maynard’s scream in The Grudge. 25 seconds of wtf.
Man, excited about that but I can't wait until Hooker with a Penis lvl
Every Tool album has a distinct sound and feeling man. Their earlier work was harder and as they aged they became more and more complex in their music. The one constant though is Maynard's voice and lyrical prowess. And with all the suggestions for Tool songs here in the comments, they are all GOOD. There is no bad Tool song.

If/when he gets to Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned, he’s not gonna know what to do with himself. His mind is no doubt going to be a nuclear wasteland. Lose his shit. Flawless Victory guaranteed.
bet you $20 he shits the bed
10,000 Days
Rosetta Stoned = BOSS
Yep!
As long as he remembers his pen he’ll be fine
Dude you are TRULY the King of Reactions and Tool can never be categorized as anything but TOOL!!!!!We don't listen to Tool,We EXPERIENCE BRILLIANCE!!!!
Tool is very much worth diving into headlong. Glad to see you're digging them!
Man bro, this song was made to the mathematical Fibonacci sequence. You have to watch the "Lyrics and meaning" version of this. It will blow your mind.
Donald Rodriguez the problem with that lyric video is that they focus too much on all the information and not on that actual song itself
Leon Russell Says who? The fist time I saw this I was thoroughly involved in big the music and information
Donald Rodriguez I mean as a reaction video, if seen a few reactions with it and they focus more on the fibonacci thing than the song itself.
Leon Russell I understand, but this man has more depth of thought. He understands how broad in perspective MJK's lyrics are without the details surrounding how their music is created. And put together, I think he'd get it, and love it. BTW... The guys make the music, before Maynard writes the lyrics, so these men are on a different playing field when it comes to their music and lyrics. That's why they are my favorite band ever.
Check Parabola/Parabol from this same album great song, all this album is a masterpiece
Carlos Martinez it’s my fav
Duna.....duna!......duna.......danada.....
I love your Tool reactions. You get it. They're just different. Hard to put your finger on it. Musically they find a way to take simple chord progression and twist it like a rubics cube in every different combination and package it all up into a masterpiece. And Maynard's lyrics are so infectious. From the writing to delivery. Actually I find that everything they play I've somehow felt inside me at some point and then there it is, they shown a light on it, it's amazing! You got to check out Puscifer. Maynard's personal music project. His last album, Money Shot is unbelievable.
Lateralus is one of the best songs and albums of the last 2-3 decades!
Other great tracks from that album: The Grudge, Eon Blue Apocalypse/The Patient, Schism, Parabol/Parabola, Ticks n' Leeches
TOOL- Rosetta Stoned is a must! Gotta read the lyrics while u listen tho.....TRUST ME!!!!!
Listen again, but with good headphones! This is my all time favorite Tool song, and Tool is my favorite band.
you gotta listen with some good quality headphones to really appreaciate the layers in tools music man
TOOL put this song together based off of the Fibonacci number sequence. Not in regards to what they are singing about but how they put everything together and the rhythm they sing in
Cassie Contino They do mention spiraling out, the structure of the song could be a metaphor for continuous growth as a person.
Most of what they are talking about is reference to alchemy and alchemical patterns.
Never ceases to amaze me.
The noticed the sequence after it was mostly written
The syllables of the lyrics actually follow the Fibonacci sequence with itch is absolutely mind blowing when you think about it
The drums around the 10:30 is just an impossible pattern that only Danny Carey can do.
Josh Moore I agree. I've attempted to play it on drums and failed quicker than my drug test
Its quite simple actually. Once you realize the snare always follows the 2nd opening of the hi hat it's simple to learn. Plus its just a one measure pattern in 5. The snare is always on 4. probably the easiest part of the song for the drums actually. The only difficultly is that the Bass and Guitar are playing in different meters so in a live setting you would have to focus on your rhythm and mostly ignore the others.

Brian Davis yeah it took a bit but it's not as complicated as mon drummers think
but I can play it
Lateralus is one of their best albums. Gotta check The Grudge and Schism soon!
Watching you enjoy tool takes me back to when I first heard these songs for the first time. Goosebumps!! I love seeing someone really get into it for the first time. Thanks for the videos. I love watching them
I wrote a 6 page essay on this song for university a few months ago, best thing I have ever written. Can't wait to see you react to The Grudge, it will blow your mind.
Share the link...
@@Spiral0ut77 wait, you actually want to read my essay?
@@ToddFraud Sure. We're all tool fans . It'd be interesting to see how you turned the song into an essay for school.
Tyler Davis I want to read it as well!
I’d like to read it, too
Reaction UA-camr: Listens to Lateralus
Every Tool fan ever: *Fibonacci sequence!*
Make sure to re-listen to these Tool songs with headphones cause it’s a different experience.
Ryan Garcia very valid point 😎
THIS! THIS! THIS! THIS!
Tool is incredible, haven't released an album in over a decade and they're still ahead of the game lol.
Do The Grudge from this Album next my man absolute beast of a tune 👊
Look up “How Tool uses the fibanachi sequence” on UA-cam and be even more blown away. This song is 100% written by a natural math sequence
The new intro message is 🗣 EVERYTHING 🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾
It's fitting that you listened to this song while wearing a Bulls hat, since this is the Michael Jordan of songs.
Also, GO BULLS!!!
The KING of REAL reactions! Try Schism, Aenima, Stinkfist from Tool next. Also - King Fantastic - Hollyrock Jam Sessions.
Glad you've discovered and are enjoying TOOL. I've been enjoying and going to dozens of their concerts from the first Lollapalooza, Coachella to countless other events. Keep on listening and loving true greatness!
As a few others have mentioned, you should check out the Fibonacci sequence explanation for this song. It's pretty incredible.
i love seeing the joy in you at discovering new music. you have a genuine appreciation for all aspects of the songs you are witnessing for the first time and the work that goes into them
Tool - Rosetta Stoned w/lyrics
I don't care that this comes 5 years later... Tool is a treasure spread upon humans in the 20 and 21st century
If you go back on 46&2, watch the most viewed lyric video on it (like 33 million) because it gives a lot of insight into the meanings in the lyrics during the song and you will be amazed.

This is awesome! I respect people with great musical tastes. I like that you rewind the same parts over and over. It shows that you’re really into the music. Your channel is one of my favorites. ❤️👍🏽🙌🏽
Lost Keys+Rosetta Stoned with lyrics of course
The history of all this album is this: when that guys travel to costa rica the band goes to ceremony of ayahuasca, in the same ceremony the guys know alex grey, the song lateralius is the conversation between the chaman and the singer in front of 15 guys include alex grey
You should listen to tool parabol/parabola.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just discovered this video, thank you for reacting to my video 😀
A great reaction for a great song 👊
I've seen Tool live 10 times. For what its worth the only song they have played all 10 times is Stinkfist. I'd would like to see you review Tool - jimmy or Hooker With a Penis next.
By the way, you have me singing "Don DeMarco" all day at the show room in the dealership i work for. Or saying finish him, when i go out to close a deal.
I glad that you react to “Lateralus” bro!! Amazing, now i hope you can see “Lateralus Explanation of the song” to understand more about the writting process of Tool in all aspect!! Cheers and respect From Chile!!!
Fam, you must do homework to fully appreciate this song and its relation to the Fibonacci sequence
And then you dissect the lyrics, and you realize all of that detail was to troll you, because the song is about over-analyzation and reading too much into things.
Let alone the insane poly rhythms. PhD level stuff here. So fn awesome. Love this band
TheGalwayjoyce That's not what it means, at all.
🤯
Or you could just appricate the song for what it is.... Fucking awesome. Don't overthink, just enjoy. 💚
Then look into the meaning and disect if that is what you want to do. Whatever floats your boat ✌
You’re right, it’s poetry. Each song feels like a story and they all have that build up and climax I love, just when you think they can’t blow your mind any more your pupils just blow open. Wait until you see them live, it really radiates through you
I think reading the lyrics to right in two would give the song a deeper meaning.... it speaks so much to human nature just my opinion. Keep up your awesome videos and keep smiling!!!
Ashley Dixon Absolutely agree.
Greatest song ever. Seen them live 12 times. NOTHING compares to there show......NOTHING
Ride the spiral to the end bro , may just go where no ones been. Spiral out
King KTF I totally get how you are blown away by TOOL ... I've been listening to metal all my life and I just discovered TOOL a couple of months ago and they are by far the best band i have ever heard ... they take music to a new level ... I can't get enough of them.
Hey man I’m loving your reactions keep em going pls!! Lyric videos are cool on Tool because of the crazy amount of thought that Maynard puts in every word but this way you miss a lot of the amazing things they do with the instruments. For example my favorite part is after the solo when they start playing in diferent rythms within the guitar, bass and drums to unsync and create tension only to be liberated at a single beat were they all sync in to start the process again. That I find genious!! Hope you take a listen to that and keep growing and getting more reactions out there!! Cheers from Spain!
Dude, we love and can’t wait for your reaction videos. I’ve been listening to Tool since middle school.
You always do justice, man. Keep it going.
React to tool aenima
Wesley Anderson or third eye
Wesley Anderson the whole album?
Dude, listen to King Crimson, perfect mix between tool and pink floyd, they are the fathers of Progressive Rock from 1969. The band is always evolving and changing members chosen by their mastermind Robert Fripp. The band is now formed by 1 guitarrist and vocalist, fripp in the guitar and keys, a saxofonist, a bassist and THRE FUCKING DRUMMERS. One of them is Gavin Rossdale, my favorite drummer, who is also known for playing in Porcupine Tree, a great progressive metal band you should check, and in Storm Corrosion, a bizarre band that creates dark but yet celestial atmospheres. In that band also play Steven wilson, todays most famous progressive rock composer and producer and Mikael Akerfeldt, the great guitarrist and singer from Opeth, an amazing swedish Progressive Death Metal band that mix Death with acoustic folkclorical music... You have got to check them out!! He also appears in Repentance, a song from Dream Theater, and in Bloodbath, a great death metal band.
You may also like Komara, a side project from Patt mastelotto (king crimsons drummer) and Tony Levin (also from King Crimson, current bassist and one of the most interesting bassist youll see, who also plays on Liquid Tension Experiment, an instrumental band with members of Dream Theater), the visual art work of that album is made by Adam Jones, guitarrist of Tool hhaha
Hope i didnt overwhelm anyone and can provide useful information lol
Yaa tools among the best of the best, I would say this is my favorite track by them as well. listen to whoever suggested this one Cheers
The first time I saw this song performed live, it changed my life. It was 11/3/01 (the first time I saw them live) and I still have a vivid visual of Maynard’s movements throughout. It was mesmerizing.
It means go after the girl you want, go after the life you want, don't shy away from anything embrace the random. CARPE DIEM!!!! Do Deftones Digital Bath next
Love Digital Bath!
I’ve been a faithful Tool fan since 95 when I heard them at middle school in the parking lot waiting on the bus to go to a baseball game. That moment forever changed my life. So glad you found Tool or basically anything Maynard touches.
Knew you'd like lateralus and Jambi, I think you will also like Parabol/Parabola
Unlike most of the reaction channels that have popped up recently, you seem genuine and sincere. I appreciate that. Keep it up!
You don’t listen to TOOL, you experience them
Tool is touring in May and you know you should be there! The structure of this song is INSANE. Music & lyrics written with a mathematical sequence in mind. 1,1,2,3,5,8,13, which is the beginning of the Fibonacci Sequence. Line by line the number of syllables match the sequence. The time sequences also of the music also follow the sequence. The Fibonacci sequence creates spirals, a little hard to explain here, but things spiral out based on the sequence. Most things grow in spirals. Our Universe and everything moving in it moves in spirals. It's really fascinating stuff! The original name for this song was '987' which is contained in the Fibonacci sequence. 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,610,987...
So here's the first number of lines in the song...
Black
then
White are
All I see
In my Infancy
Red & Yellow then came to be
Reaching Out to Me
Let's me see
That's a 1,1,2,3,5,8,5,3 sequence. The sequence continues with the next verse. An amazing amount of thought went in to create this masterpiece.
But try not to overthink it ;) Forty Six & 2 and Right in Two are both kick ass, but this is the SHIT!
Tool Reflection
david howard my favorite by far. We must let the ego go
david howard wasz waiting for someone to suggest it, Taoism ftw lol
Agreed!
This song is like a powerbar to the mind...to the soul...deeper than any other song ever created. That's what I have felt as a listener for years to this song. Its inspirational while being mystical. So unique.
You’re the best!!! My I suggest schism next, or whatever you pick because you never disappoint!!! Peace!
I've heard this song thousands of times, it made me cry the other day. completely out of nowhere. One of the most powerful songs ever composed.
If you want deep deep TOOL, listen to ROSETTA STONED
Really loving your reaction videos, and seeing someone discover the awesomeness and mind-altering powers of Tool for the first time.
Keep on doing you, my bruh!
Aenima is my favorite track by Tool check it out bro!
Bro it's awesome watching someone evolve into a Tool fan. I have been a fan of Tool since I first heard them in the early 90's. Saw them live for the first time in 1997 right after ÆNIMA came out. It was one of the best shows I have seen still to this day. I have seen them multiple times. The one show that stood out the most to me was Tool at Bonnaroo in 2007. I had some really good LSD that I had saved just for the occasion. One of the best nights of my life. I wish I could put into words what that show means to me. Tom Morello from Rage Against The Machine came out and played with them toward the end of the show. Life changing experience to say the least.
Thank you!!! We all expected Lateralus ... great right? please try it with "Right where it belongs" of NIN (Nine inch nails) and you will discover another great band. Please please please 🤘
You crack me the fuck up, man. HOLD ON BRUUUUH!!! I love it.
Try out
Tool - Parabol parabola
Tool - stinkfist
Writing this before I watch. This is one of the greatest songs in human history and i'm so excited to watch you experience this! Keep up the good work brotha
Listen to Parabol/Parabola from tool. For me the lyrics are deep and the build up will definitely give you goose bumps
This will be looked back on as masterpiece. IT is the golden ration on rythm, lyric tempo, much more butrhe lyric meaning of the universe and the golden rule the spiral that controls it ALL.
Hold on breh!!!!!!
Dude, I love this. Tool is one of favorite bands of all time, and lateralus is my favorite album. To see someone hear it for the first time is awesome, and I'm jealous bro lol. I respect what you're doing. You're not only breaking it down from the other side of the music world, your showing other hip hop fans some real shit in something maybe they never heard before. 👍
SPIRAL OUT!!
My dude. I really love that you actually appreciate tool. I see so many hip hop enthusiasts reacting to tool and they just act hype and they dont really have any thing to say about it or react to any of the instrumentals. Welcome to the family my friend. Spiral out. keep going.
Alice In Chains - "Don't Follow"
Commenting before even watching. Thank you for doing this song. Not sure if you've seen me floating around in your Tool videos, but I've been suggesting this one to you since you started with Tool. Now, time to enjoy the video! Peace!
React to Tool. Ticks And Leaches
This song has so many layers, on the surface it’s about nature because it’s based on the formula that creates the Fibonacci spiral. The Fibonacci spiral is seen in things as small as snail shells and as large as galaxies, our finger length is also based on the same mathematical structure. Tool also touches on being born as a small scared blind being.
Doesnt look like you've done Schism by Tool. If you have my bad, if not, what are you waiting for??
Yeah!!!
Watching you discover my fav band gives me the warm and fuzzies.
Your ready for THE GRUDGE
Just discovered your channel. And I love it. Saw tool live only once and I can tell you he sings this good live. Keep jamming bro
