We’ve got ANOTHER Tool Video coming out on Monday!!!
The track was honestly amazing, how it all relates to the Fibonacci Sequence/golden ratio is awesome. Comment below all these relationships because I’m sure we didn’t catch them all!
Have a great day friends!! 😁🔥
@fred head
Thanks friend! 😁
@fred head
You are seriously blowing my mind,
Wow!!
Holy cow how did yetti miss these guys. THANKS. In return, i give you INFECTIOUS GROOVES. Trust yetti
The Golden Ratio is 1.618. Maynard begins singing at 1 minute 37 seconds into the song which is 1.618 minutes. Polyphonic did a video about this song. Link is ua-cam.com/video/uOHkeH2VaE0/v-deo.html
OK, if you guys didn't know about this being connected to the Fibonacci Sequence, could you tell ?
Just sounds like another good Tool song ?
JAMBI
46&2
THE POT
RIGHT IN TWO
Everyone sir..... EVERYONE!!!!
I listened to the pot while on mushrooms. Great way to listen to tool.
@@suvacirema2247 if I could find some!
Prison Sex
Parabola
Wings of Marie
One of the best songs ever written. Just amazing in so many ways 👌
Ticks & Leeches. The drums OMG the drums.
Definitely need to listen to Ticks & Leeches. Love the reason behind the song as well. Big ol middle finger to the record label!
THE VOCALS!? Maynard blew his voice out on those vocalized elongated screams, and swore never again. But killer to listen to.
Mostly i listen too weed while smoking on Tool's music
Shrooms for me. Great way to kick it in
Nice one! That Tool is some strong shit man, before long you become a Tool junkie. That’s a habit you don’t want to or be capable of kicking. I always get my Tool fix!!!
Slow clap building....👏👏👏👏👏👏.......lol
Let's poke a smole sometime
Matt King thats what i plan to do my first shrooms trip
The grudge is my favorite tool song.... It has all the tool features in 1 song
Would that make it a multi-TOOL?
To me, the song is about the desire for knowledge and pondering the mysteries of the universe, but also a warning against letting that become so much of your focus that you don't live your life. It's like staring at the stars and wondering at the vastness of the cosmos but not keeping your eyes on where you're walking.
"Over-thinking, over-analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines."
You mentioned the syllable count already, so a brief one on the music, the opening/main riff is a sequence of 9/8, 8/8, 7/8. 987 is the 17th number in the fibonnaci sequence.
@Alpha Ursae Majoris
Holy shit. I knew they were up to something with those polyrhythms!
That's only the tip of the iceberg with this song. I suggest watching a in depth video that explores Lateralus. THE ENTIRE SONG relates to math in some way
@@sethmurrin5273 even to the point of when he starts singing in the song and everything.
@@wojecire Right? The lyrics start 1:37, 137 is a Fibonacci number. Another way to look at 1:37 is 1.618 minutes. 1.618 is the Golden Ratio.
Every time I listen to Tool I find something new to be mind blown haha
Including the "High Pattern" part that they loved so much!! You have to listen to it carefully but its there and its awesome!! Go check it out!! 5:55
The syllable count in the song is exactly, line for line, the number sequence.
Perhaps you had better start at the beginning.
"Tool" has been just that for Maynard...a tool that has helped him heal.
He's an angry dude the first couple albums.
Thank you for telling them...now that they have heard this...they will def see the spiraling out of T00L through the albums
Its hard to stay angry when you have the money to do anything you want to do. If you are into anger, you will like the first couple of albums from your favorite band. Their comfort will influence their subsequent albums.
@@sobo2001 It doesn't have to do with money, MJK ' S spirit healed and we got the gift of hearing how that sounds.
@@chelshops I will concede that money probabaly isnt the sole reason that Maynard, or most other bands mellow out over time. Maturity helps. And now he spends his free time on his OWN VINYARD. He isnt living in a van. You dont agree that having money to buy a vinyard may have influenced the healing?
sobo2001 Sorry b
I always notice songs being recommended but no one ever says anything about their older stuff. Where it all started. Try some of that to hear how it's evolved over the years. With that being said, try swamp song or crawl away from Undertow. You won't regret it.
If you guys are digging tool you should sit down and listen to Lateralus the album in one sitting, a completely different experience than listening to individual tracks. Great video!
Drizzy Pizzman, and to continue on this, one does not listen to the Lateralus album with EarPods! You can hear it, but you’re not listening to it through those dinky things. Get some real headphones, the experience will be so much better.
The Grudge.....Vicarious......Jambi....46 & 2....The Pot...You guys are gonna be Tool Junkies!!! Rock On!!
@Trey Honeycutt
Haha that’s the plan! Cheers man! 😁
Lipan Conjuring-Lost Keys-Rosseta Stoned
- all in this order ;)
Should've just listed their discography my dud
Trey Honeycutt parabol, parabola, eulogy, H, Jimmy, Aenema basically you could just list all their songs.
Seth Murrin basically this
I think this is their Magnum Opus.
Incredibly hard to say since their whole catalogue is so different. They have their unique kind of sound, but still every song has so many different elements.
Can't wait for the new album, it's going to be badass. The new posted riff from alex jones is just so musically pleasing already. I think it's going to hit expectations.
I cant disagree Jordan, my favorite track is Pushit but lateralus might be their best in terms of just pure technical mastery
@@Spasstiful I've never heard a band that has such a wide range of music and yet every song is unmistakably Tool.
I'd have to disagree with this. Wing's for Marie pt2 2 or Aenema could be considered the same for the respective albums. Tool is always pushing it in a different way from album to album. This is a great song for sure but I wouldn't consider it the defacto best or hardest Tool song.
This song is the peak of musical creation. Nothing beats it.
if you guys are looking for a true masterpiece, check out wings for marie part 1 and 2. but before you do, make sure to understand the backstory!
Yeah...they would like listening to "Judith" from Maynard's other band "A Perfect Circle" to throw in the mix of the whole storyline.
Damn. I forgot theres a whole generation that doesnt know about Tool. Great stuff
Anyone who was born when 10,000 Days came out is now a teenager.
Where does the time go?
I'm part of the generation that really *ought* to have known about Tool, but didn't. I've been raised in "The South" and been exposed to mostly country and pop music from both my parents, respectively. It wasn't until I was a teenager that I realized why I didn't care for music at all. I've still got years of rectification ahead. I just wish that they'd known better. At least I can do my part to make sure people know the sort of things they never hear on the radio.
@@nogosnoqt I'm old AF and I liked TOOL but since getting sober 14 months ago, listening to TOOL is an AMAZING SPIRITUAL THING and I thank GOD FOR IT !
@@nogosnoqtexperience!
Congratulations on your success. I'm very glad you could find a way to help you focus yourself onto a more healthy, independent lifestyle..
I actually have a family history of, well... the sort of thing that would make you not sober on a regular basis, so I sincerely hope you the best.
And just another interesting point, not fibonnaci related, the you commented on the high hat rhythm. Danny is playing the drum rhythm in 5/8 whilst the rest of the band is in 6/8. Common multiple is 30 so they intersect and diverge every 6 drums bars or 5 bars for the rest of the band.
@Alpha Ursae Majoris
Wow that’s awesome, 5 and 8 are Fibonacci numbers so hmmm, I feel like the drummer is on that rhythm on purpose! 😁
The guitar player Adam Jones actually does some of the artwork too. He's actually a trained special FX maker. Think he did a bunch of movies. T2, aliens, Jurassic park, I think he may have worked on Predator toi
Brandon Hinrichs there's a video here on UA-cam that shows that actually. His wife is an amazing artist as well. I apologize, I don't have the link. Sounds like everyone here loves Tool as much as I do so finding it will be an enjoyable project. Enjoy!
Multiple time signatures 7/8 & 9/8 I believe Danny the drummer plays them both at the same time during the middle and what he does after that is sick I still get tears.
Oh and the time signatures are numbers in the fibanacci sequence too.
@willie 55
Damn! This is honestly insane,
Love it!
@@andyandalex if you want insane Lost Keys Rosette Stoned and Third Eye. Can't say enough so just listen and you'll understand.
Danny being a geometry major gave him my unique advantage on how to incorporate math onto drum patterns.
Your faces when the song ends says it all. You are hooked and you will soon not only have heard all of their albums, but will also be anticipating their first album in over 12 years just like the rest of us.
As a long time TOOL fan (over 20 years...I’m 44), you two remind me of my best friend and I when we were younger exploring music like this.
I love watching your reactions to their music b/c it reminds when we first discovered them too. I’ve literally listened to their songs thousands of times and it never gets old but it’s a joy to see someone else’s new experience.
Keep up your friendship through the years. My best bud is gonna be the best man in my wedding in a couple months and we feel like a couple of young guys again awaiting their next album release....ha. Cheers!
Listen to disposition/reflection/triad by tool they are seoerate songs on the CD but they were intended to be one piece, due to practical reasons they were cut.
Alex Grey on the artwork if nobody's pointed that out yet
Watching people react to Tool for the first time reminds me why I love Tool. Thanks.
"The Grudge" next! 😊
In addition to the time signutures being 9-8-7, the syllable count in the lines in the verses / pre-choruses are all fibbonacci digits; most of which follow the actual sequence in order, forward and reverse:
Verse 1:
Black - 1
Then - 1
White are - 2
All I see - 3
In my infancy - 5
Red and yellow then came to be - 8
Reaching out to me - 5
Lets me see - 3
As below, so above and beyond what I imagine - 13
Drawn beyond the lines of reason - 8
Push the envelope - 5
Watch it bend - 3
Verse 2:
Black - 1
Then - 1
White are - 2
All I see - 3
In my infancy - 5
Red and yellow then came to be - 8
Reaching out to me - 5
Lets me see - 3
There is - 2
So - 1
Much - 1
More and - 2
Becons me - 3
To look through to these - 5
Infinite possibilities - 8
As below, so above and beyond what I imagine - 13
Drawn beyond the lines of reason - 8
Push the envelope - 5
Watch it bend - 3
Another awesome reaction guys. May I suggest checking out their two new tracks Descending and Invincible they released over the weekend? They're recordings from their live show but damn are they incredible. ToolArchive has them both up on their channel.
Oh....you were actually there. So damn jealous guys. Hope you enjoyed yourselves.
@James Pugh
Yeah man it was a great show! Hope you enjoyed the clips I posted! 🔥😁
Great song, great reaction. You mentioned the Golden Ratio, one reference to that, that many folks miss is when the lyrics start. Maynard’s first word is sung at 1min 37 secs into the song, that is 1.62 mins which is the Golden Ratio
@LEO Mike
Wow, you are all blowing my mind, I love everything about this!!!!
loved your reaction! My kids and I love this song and it's my #1 Tool pick. Can't listen to this song enough times.....thanks for being excited about it as I am...I promise that excitement will never go away.
So glad you did Lateralus! This is one of my favorite Tool songs ever...great reactions! ❤️
This is one of my favorite Tool songs simply because of the intersecting time signatures. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I just love that Adam Jones signature sound around the 8-minute mark of this song. He does it in numerous other songs, check out Swamp Song or Bottom for instance. If I guided someone through Tool's music, I would do more from the Opiate/Undertow sound first and move chronologically. Not necessarily every song, but enough to see and hear the bands origins and its evolution into what they are...well were in 2006.
Watched maybe 5 of your reactions, subscribed. Y’all are way fun
The artwork is Alex Grey.
He has a massive public studio in NY (I believe... if not it's San Fran).
It was originally titled 9-8-7. For the time signatures. Then it turned out that 987 was the 16th number of the Fibonacci sequence.
The main groove is 9/8 + 8/8 + 7/8 which forms the number 987 which is in far along in the sequence :)
You don't really pop your Tool cherry until you listen to this song. This song inspires to me to constantly grow and become more connected to my true self and the Universe, or you could say, to spiral out. Great video dudes, keep up the good work!
P.S. there is no bad Tool song, listen to them all friends
The look on your faces as it ended. You were utterly spent. :D
Pay attention to the syllables in the lyrics, also, the time signatures and certain sections of the song and the whole album really, is in the Fibonacci sequence. It's just a matter of breaking everything down to know when and where it is used. It's quite genius actually.
Yep Fibonacci and Phi.
The time signatures of the chorus of the song change from 9/8 to 8/8 to 7/8; as drummer Danny Carey says, "It was originally titled 9-8-7. For the time signatures. Then it turned out that 987 was the 16th number of the Fibonacci sequence. So that was cool."
Welcome to the journey. The way you guys bobble your heads. You get it.
You kids are extremely fortunate to discover tool now as their new album should be coming out soonish..... enjoy the experience. They’re an amazing band.
Tool is one of favorite bands right now ; can't hardly wait for their new album coming out soon.💚🛠
Excellent reaction A&A. love your enthusiasm! I said it before I'll say it again Parabol&Parabola!
A unique and interesting sound...Tool is for those with brains..
Ok duuude. Don't go all Rick and Morty on us now.
@@paeden5431 :)...As long as I'm Rick...BUUURRRPP...
What I love about Toll is that despite all the math and complexity and polyrhythms and shit, there's still plenty of groove in there.
I love that bass bit too, could see how it hit you
I love this...I'm addicted to watching people fall in love with TOOL. Anywho, one of the many things that blows my mind about this track is the fact that its 9 minutes 24 seconds. 2 numbers that do NOT show up in the Fibonacci Sequences Golden Ratio..."push the envelope, watch it bend."!!!
The moment you understand Tool and how good they really are - almost every other band out there becomes superfluous and uninteresting (with some exceptions of course). I've been listening to Tool for almost 20 years now, and I never get tired of their albums and songs.
Same I am at 20 years also and they are the only band I can listen to everyday and never get tired of listening to them.
My introduction to tool was their first album sober and the sober video on MTV when they actually played music
Danny Carey is incredible. I've been unable to find a drummer that blows my mind more than him. Check out Triad (maybe on your own) 6.5 min instrumental (long outro of silence) . Then Pushit would be a great one to react to.
Neal peart?
Tool overall in my opinion is a 10. Listening since the early days of the Opiate album, each album keeps evolving. You would be hard pressed to find a band that puts forth the effort and precision they do musically/vocally currently. I have always felt they are a more modern evolution of rock like Pink Floyd was in their time. Make sure to check out Decending and Invincible that dropped on UA-cam a few days ago. It's all live and first new Tool in almost a decade.
@Three Geeks Flix
Yeah I agree with you! And I was there in the Pit!! Check out the clips I posted!
7,8,9 are the stanzas you are looking for. 789 is a Fibonacci number. Maynard James Keenan talks about it in a Joe Rogan interview.
I wish I could go back and listen to all my years of being a tool fan from never having heard any of it again! I started like one of you at least, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and that stuff. Lemon 80s baby and when grunge hit in the 90s I found Tool's first CD in a Discman and an abandoned backpack at school and became immediately enamored with them! About that time Sober had become a hit.
I've actually seen Tool four times, one of them just a few days ago, Friday! It was interesting you guys gave Lateralus a chance. Of all their music previous this exemplified the most change in rifting and song structure and in effect became somewhat of a challenge for me to listen to from a new point of Direction in state of mind.
Songs from Ænima, (O
Awn-ih-mah, my own phonetics, LOL) differed greatly in radio friendlies. Walking into Lateralus, with their crowning song touting the lyrics, "I know the pieces fit," was somewhat of a misstep for our ears in what we expected and we weren't sure what to make of it, the fans at the time. But of course they're Geniuses so it grew on us and is fucking amazing!
Then 10,000 days came back to a more listenable approach like Ænima, but still coupled the intricacies and differentiating rift work. But even Ænima was a step up and away from the recognizable, typical metal rifting that was more recognizable in Undertow.
It's cool you guys have taken a liking to them and are making videos gauging your reactions. It'll be something fun to look back on, but something fun in the moment too. Just so you know Maynor doesn't releases lyrics because he wants each listener to have his or her own experience. At least for the first listen, try not to focus too hard in the lyrics in writing Maybe, and just get an overall feel.
I still haven't taken the time to master the lyrics so there are still surprises when a different recording reveals a lyric I had wrong and totally changes the meaning of this song by that revelation, and I look forward to that! Still, it's okay to look, lol.
You guys enjoy! Don't forget his side projects A Perfect Circle and Puscifer. I'll give you a fun Puscifer a video to watch, though it's unofficial. I like it because it's a great Breakup Song and talks about making a deal with the devil to forget a woman completely.
ua-cam.com/video/FAuEb9L_Kvg/v-deo.html
As others have already mentioned, The Grudge is amazing for it's composition, rhythmical changes and stuff, Vicarious & Right in Two for their message, The Pot for it's groove and so on. Love both of your approach to music, you both seem knowledgeable and really enthusiastic about getting into new music. Hope to see you both soon on your Tool journey!
@Tepasd
Thanks! We’ll have another Tool vid coming Monday! 😁
@@andyandalex I'll be checking that out at monday then, have a nice weekend both!
@Tepasd
See you then, and same to you!
At 8:19 when Justin and Danny bring the drop...
More T00L. You owe it to yourselves. Great job guys, keep spiraling out!
@konasurfah
Hell yeah!! More Tool def!!!
konasurfah Every single reaction to this song is the same at that part of the song. It’s a gorgeous moment.
You guys are on the right track. Keep listening!
Later in the second-half of this song you also have two separate chorouses that overlap.
Decades later I'm still learning so much about the old albums I haven't even made it to the newer albums lol I'm just finally making it to 10k days. The reason ya love every aspect of this song is a perfect fuckin song man it's a 10/10 other songs THAT THIS is a master piece. But the Fibonacci sequence is in every single aspect of the song! The lyric and every instrument is on it in some form way or another it's insane how they pulled this off it's mad genius this is the greatest band alive if not of all time for a reason! Lol. Several under rated as well! I'm glad they're gaining new fans n always will as their music is so timeless. But I think it's also the fact that the sequence is how the natural order comes of chaos in the universe organically and then when we are in line with that frequency I guess or beat syncs with our heart beat I think even had something to do with shoeman resonance? I could be wrong on that tho.im not 100% but there's a natural comfort the sequence brings out in emotion in music then while throwing it odd they make it sound n feel familiar while also feeling and sounding new at the same time! And man this was one of those songs that the 1st time u hear it u fall in love with it! But let's see it's not all that hard to find the best of tool since there are NOT that many albums 5 in 30yrs and 1s still not out lmao then we got to see how many songs are on each album said 12 but half are intro outro short or long gimmick sounds n effects etc quote from not pop culture but more fringe lol. I.e. the art bell area51 caller. But these things are done to inspire one to really think n question which success lol. Band with ideas so big u may need lsd to break it all down lmao. But I digress lets see a list of tool songs
Die eir von Satan. (Gimmick joke track but sound sooo epic dark n sick! Wicked track ahead of its time industrial sounding and experimental music almost. & remember no eggs. Unt kina ayra lol)
Lataralus
Parabol
Parabola (both are epic n almost side A&b of same track or 1 builds up to the other so perhaps do the latter as it's so similar.)
Wings for marie 1&2(almost has the feel n sound of a perfect circle song butit's tool!)
Oh this isn't a tool only song but Maynard sang with deaftones for the song titled
Passenger - deaf tones feat Maynard James Keenan.
46&2
Stinkfist
Prison sex (these btw are in no particular order just off the top of my head)
Vicarious
Schism.
I think that'd be a great start and as of what HAS been released before the 2019 album should it make it on time this yr. But I think my all time so far far song is in fact lataralus and parabola until descending and that just kicked vicarious off my top3and is between them for tied for 3rd almost but I like the new riff on about 9min into the song in THIS link from their new album should come out this mo between now n aug. Hey augmakes a great bday gift lol. Link....
ua-cam.com/video/8ZJIldL5TZU/v-deo.html
But u really can't go wrong with tool I'm sure i left out some epic tracks but pretty much every song that's a full blown song is pretty much amazing from tool so far above n beyond the competition there is none! Lol idk any othet band that putso much effort into making the music great and it comes 1st unlike the fame sex drugs etc I like that n it's quality over quantity tool it doesn't get much better than them
Man it's so dope to see people who know music and who are actually really intelligent listen to tool, so refreshing! Subbed!!
@jim hemp
Thanks man! Just recorded another Tool vid today!!
Never clicked on something so fast! More Tool my dudes! I Suggest... Right in Two next
@Austin Campbell
That’s awesome haha, and I’m showing Alex 46&2 on Monday, will put up a poll to choose our next song on Monday, will make Right in Two and option! 😁
you are completely correct the spiral out keep going refers directly to the "sacred spiral"
Wow......just Wow! 😱💕
Their faces 😂, great! Keep on riding the spiral 🙏
Okay so I first heard The Pot by Tool in 2006 in my first year of highschool and it was not on my radar at all. I rediscovered them after I had spent 7 months hitch hiking around Canada (mostly BC) and in my travels started feeling a stronger set of emotions about life and its mysteries. One day in a friend's RV we listened to the Lateralus album in full and since they consistently been a reference/reflection point for me. This song is a 10.
@Madti Boysen
Hell yeah friend! 🔥🤟🏻
Great reaction! Thanks. Disposition- Reflection - Triad. Better listened to after a bong hit.
Hell yeah been waiting for this
Btw if you want to see a different side of Tool and Danny kill the drums check out Ticks and leeches
@UGM-27 Polaris
Thanks for the tip friend!!
@@andyandalex Just finished this, you got the point also the name of this song was originaly 987 because its in 9/8 8/8 and 7/8 and 987 is a fibonacci number so they were like fuck it make the whole song about this
@UGM-27 Polaris
Damn that’s awesome, seriously incredible, cheers! 😁
The pyramids were supposedly constructed using the golden ratio, and I always think about that when listening to this song. Musicians using more than just melody to create a soundscape like no other....that is Tool
It still amazes me this is the same band that did songs like sober, sweat, a part of me etc...they just have such a crazy range of amazing songs with different styles within that tool vibe...love it
Lol right after you said that at 6:03 I literally said out loud, "Dude it gets better"
Genuinely enjoy seeing people react to tool. The past few months have been a strain on my brain, and to say the least tool played an important aspect in my life to help me overcome issues or even heal my mind in times of grief. Nevertheless I have listened to them every day pretty much for 5 months and I won’t ever get tired of it. Truly the greatest band I’ve ever listened too.
My favorite tool album hands down. Their albums are always meant to be heard from start to finish. 10,000 days is so good too.
It would make sense to start with their earlier songs and listen chronologically.
So perhaps this would work for you.
Hush, Intolerance, Sober
AND THEN
Stinkfist, Forty Six and two, Pushit-Salival Version (HIGHLY recommend, note- Salival is a live album they released)
AND THEN
The Grudge, Parabol/Parabola
AND THEN
Vicarious, Wings for Marie part 1 + 2, Right in two.
That^ would be a good order for you guys to follow, spiral out legends. Cheers from Australia 🤘🏼
P.s Let me know if you want to hear some epic Australian bands.
WONDERFUL! 👏👏👏👏👏 🤞
Just keep enjoying and discovering TOOL! It’s all awesome... ride the spiral 🤘😎🤘🎸
U guys have to hear "ticks and leeches". Fucking Genius drums. One of my favourite drummingparts ever.
Have you guys done Parabol/Parabola? IMO that's Tools masterpiece!
Yes! Parabol/Parabola!
This album is a masterpiece.
Awesome guys! Definitely check out Alex Grey! He is the artist that created all of the artwork for the Lateralus and 10,000 days albums. He also sells signed Tool artwork.
You have a very interesting take on the meaning of this song!
46 & 2, Right In Two!!
@Wouter Levering
46 and 2 on Monday!
Simply put one of the greatest bands ever. They're music builds then explodes in your face. Guitar and bass solid as fuck. Drummer one of the greatest rock drummers ever. Maynard yes you will drive yourself nuts figuring out his mind. Deep as fuck and so talented. Best live band I've seen and I've seen a lot. Gave y'all goosebumps huh fellows
@James Melton
Well said man, yup!
You guys really should do “Vicarious” next and use a lyric video... ALWAYS use a lyric video with Tool songs!!
...was in high school when this came out. "Oh no, I'm old!"
Cheeseburger Walrus I was a freshman in collage when undertow came out. I’m even older... 😆
Another amusing bit about the syllable pattern in the verses is that Maynard has regrets about the concept. The Fibonacci sequence is already underlying everything, especially music, so he feels it was sophomoric of him to deliberately bring it to a surface level.
I gotta agree. The point at 12:40, how he talks about where the biznitch drops at 8:15 ...? Well, that just might be the greatest MOMENT in rock and roll history. Seriously.
Yes it builds up then goes backwards. Not since Dark Side Of The Moon has so much thought been put into a song let alone an album.
There is also a video someone has done where they put all the tracks on this album in the Fibonacci Sequence. Tool's Holy Gift.
How? Beginning with one twice?
Vodka Drinker Link??
@@Squall2201 ua-cam.com/video/bv-tu-xM2E8/v-deo.html
The Grrrrrudddgeeee! And Yes Lateralus is a 10! So is The Grudge! And like 8 other tool songs. Then there a shitton of 9s lol.
@CYBER DEMON
Thanks for the tip!!! 😁
Andy & Alex Spiral Out! Keep. Going.
That is an excellent approximation! I count around 10 10’s (heh) as well.
Tool-eulogy
It's so weird to see people discovering this great band I've been a fan of for so many years. And I like that when you watch reactions ... everybody is just blown away.
Dudes, you have the best videos...
I've seen this reaction from you blokes a few times now. So glad that you are discovering tool. I'm a 30 year vet of this band and a 40 yr vet of prog. The whole rabbit hole of progressive rock/metal awaits.
This just took me back to college! You guys remind me of my friends and I experiencing Tool for our first time. (P.S. Better with a certain fungi 😏) Thanks for taking me down memory lane. Welcome down the rabbit hole. Spiral out.
I don't know if anybody has mentioned it yet but the artwork is by Alex Grey who has collaborated with them on live visuals as well as the packaging design for 10,000 days. Check out his stuff, he's amazing.
There is no telling how many lives the song has saved. "All This Pain is an Illusion". #SpiralOut 🌀🌀🌀
8:22 that moment when you realize you've just heard one of the best and heaviest rock songs ever performed...
"Did you know this song follows the Fibonnaci Sequence?" -Every Tool fan
The drummer studied Tablas in India. He’s the only actual musician in the band. He’s fucking good.
I wrote an English 3 paper on "Lateralus" in 2009... Staight A, teacher asked more about it after class! Lol
Also I take a specific interest in physics I’m glad to hear something like in a video about my favorite band.
You guys need to react to Ne Obliviscaris - And Plague Flowers the Kaleidescope.
This song is wicked live ne obliviscaris are awesome. Was awesome to meet dan a few years back
I recommend doing Opeth first, since NeO are basically Opeth 2.0 with a violin, 2 vocalists instead of one & more intricate lead guitar than Opeth. Akerfeldt's cleans are more appealing than Tim's too. For the first 10 years of Opeth's career their albums got better, whereas NeO's albums are going in the opposite direction, decreasing in quality.
@1:04 Mr. Alex Grey is the artist for that img, and of many tool's visuals
I really like you guys.
