Lyrics:
Compassion is broken now
My will is eroded now
Desire is broken now
It makes me feel ugly
On my knees and burning
My piss and moans are fuel and,
I set my head on fire
Smell my soul is burning
I'm broken
Looking up to see the enemy
And I've swallowed the poison you're feeding me,
But I survive on the poison you're feeding me
Leaving while you're
Guilt, fed
Hatred, fed
Weakness, fed
It makes me feel ugly
On my knees and burning
My piss and moans are fuel and,
I set my head on fire
Dead inside
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up at the bottom
If I let you, you would make me destroy myself.
In order to survive you, I must first survive myself.
And I can sink no further, and I cannot forgive you.
There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you.
I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain.
I'll use my mistakes against you.
There's no other choice.
Shameless now, nameless now, nothing now, no one now.
But my soul must be iron.
'Cause my fear is naked.
I'm naked and fearless.
And my fear is naked
Dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
Nameless now
Shameless now
Nothing now
No one now
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds as you see me,
Naked now
Fearless now
Naked now
Fearless now
Shit adds up it leaves me,
Dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
Hatred keeps me alive,
How could this keep me alive?
Weakness keeps me alive
Guilt keeps me alive at the bottom
I was in the psych ward a few weeks ago. We had music therapy group, Bottom was the 1st song I requested.
Well, ... "Therapy" band and their "Troublegum" album is a good therapy too 😎
Fearless.. rawr
The henry rollins poem part pumps me up so much
Feel like the guitar could be turned up in that part just a tinyyy
@@landonlewis2794 definitely
"CAUSE MY FEAR IS NAKED...
NAKED AND FEARLESS...
...and My Fear is NAKED!!!!!!!!!
DEAD INSIDE ! ! ! !
@@adampindell I'm clothed and fearful at the moment 😂
Awesome crazy..primal..
That opening riff is one of the things I love so much about Undertow.
Yes, I much prefer prefer the harder, grungier Tool.
Same
Nothing wrong with that.🤘😎🤘
i love the diversity of all their albums, they have a song for every mood. that said i definitely slept on this album for too long. i see why theres a lot of people who has it as their favorite.
@@VoraxUmbra Fuck yeah, I agree 100%.
I could play this whole album on guitar back in the day
one of the most underrated tool song IMO, its so good
Their best non single on this album
Greb Nitty your right this and opiate are my fav albums this one especially every single song is a banger I only don’t like sober prolly from how overplayed it is
@@UnwrittenSpade When I saw them in Hamilton 2017 they didn't play one song off of Undertow, I was a bit disappointed. Still an amazing show though.
This song popped up in my Tool playlist. Not sure if I've actually heard it before, but was surprised to hear Henry Rollins spoken word in it. Henry is the man.
@Greb nitty that's how I felt when I saw NIN in 2014. Not a single song was played from The Fragile which is my favorite nails album. I was a bit upset lol
"Shit adds up, it leaves me dead inside"
I like it, very relatable line.
i liked im fearless and naked and my fear is naked
@AII American Chutzpah said the jew
@AII American Chutzpah shit dude
melba toast easy, Adolf
I know how you feel.
Every song on this album is just N A S T Y 🥰🤤
But in an awesome way right!
Yeah man this one got the STANK to it
“In order to survive you I must first survive myself.”👀
Wait until you hear LAMC.
nasty (affectionate) 💙
this album was so ahead of its time.
Manditory listening for every 13year old.
Every single one of their albums is ahead of its time, I've always said that. And every single one of their albums gets a backlash from a large portion of their fanbase, because every album evolves to be further ahead of its time. For example, as is said on, "Hooker with a Penis" TOOL fans from Opiate thought Undertow was a sellout record because it was more melodic and I guess commercial/radio friendly because of this, instead of more thrash and bang.
Then, when Ænima came out, many Undertow fans felt like it was too meandering, not dark enough, and was beginning to explore themes which weren't personal and edgy enough.
But when Lateralus came out, it was the most ahead of its time to date, and caused a huge... *ahem*... SCHISM amongst the fans. Many people whom I knew personally, some of which cited TOOL as their favorite band, complained that only "The Grudge" and "Ticks and Leeches" were any good and sounded like TOOL songs, with a few also liking "The Patient" just because the lyrics helped them feel said. This was the album where you could really see the effect of it being ahead of its time. As the internet became more ubiquitous, in the years following it's release, it began to pick up fans who had never even listened to TOOL before, especially younger fans. And those new fans, along with many of the older fans, after years of diving into the album, many still stuck on exploring it even years after 10,000 Days dropped, it would eventually come to be hailed as their best work. And to show how ahead of its time it was, it's still held to be their best work today, and one of the greatest rock/prog metal/alt metal/ metal/ hard rock (whatever label the kids are putting on them these day) albums of all time.
On to 10,000 Days, and all the OGT fans are pretty much out at this point. A friend of mine got this album the day it came out, and gave to me a WEEK later, stating he was done with them. My other friend who cited them as his all time favorite band also gave his copy away. The lack of screaming, simple, catchy riffs, pop song structure like on "Prison Sex" or "Stinkfist" for example, and the more complex rhythms were too much for them. Even many of the Lateralus crowd felt let down by this one. But again, as the years have past, it's only been in the past couple, at least to my knowledge, that I've began to see more and more people site it as their favorite TOOL album, and even saying they believe it is objectively their best album.
And now, with Fear Inoculum out, we see the same thing all over again. Their most polished and mature work to date, which has again evolved to have them trying so many new and unique things, and yet I hear criticism like, "the songs sound like b-sides from Lateralus/10,000 days (depending on the "fan")" or, "They sound like recycled riffs from Lateralus/10,000 days." I've even heard people criticize the drums and vocals. The drums are some of Danny's best work ever, and MJK sounds absolutely amazing on this album. Adam is playing his best guitar ever. The rhythms are the most intricate and complex to date. None of the riggs are anything close to riggs from their other albums. They actually explore outside of their normal D minor pentatonic scale, which 99% of their songs were in before this. And lyrically, it is the natural progression of where they've come from, especially with song like "Fear Inoculum", "Pneuma", "Descending" and even "Invincible."
And people seem shocked to see it judged so harshly and outright dismissed offhand by "fans" who say they're done listening after a week. Well, this is pretty much the norm at this point. This happens with every one of their albums. This isntheir most ahead orbits time album to date. It probably won't be as influential as Undertow or even Ænima, but it is years away from being fully appreciated. Just as people are just now catching up to how good 10,00p Days ways, it'll likely be another 10 years before Fear Inoculum begins to be some people's favorite album of theirs.
But for me, my favorite will always be Undertow.
@@augustgreig9420 I hear you man 100%
And Undertow is my favorite lol If I ever have a bad day I throw this album on
@@frenchfrysz6695 Hey, I appreciate you reading all of that. You know, TOOL fans get shit on all the time, but all you had to do was look at the comment section of a Fear Inoculum to see all the super ppsitive, loving, connected and supportive comments for one another, like, "We made it," and, "Right now, all TOOL fans are connected as one listening to this album. I love all of you," and a whole bunch of other shit like that, even touching comments like, "This is for all of the TOOL fans who didn't live long enough to see this day."
Well, those first and last comments might mean more to me than mpst, because in January, the doctor told me I only had about a 30% chance of surviving the rest of the year, and I literally immediately responded with, "So long as I live long enough to hear the new TOOL album," and her face man, she looked completely shocked and bewildered.
But my point is, there's no other comment section on UA-cam where I'd feel like I could write a 6-8 paragraph message and people would actually read it, like it and comment on it. We are very special fans for a very special band.
My favorite
Fun fact: this is not a song, this is therapy.
Carl Jung. Look into him.
This literally is. I always come to undertow to get calibrated.
Very true!
Literally 10 minuets ago i called 'Reflection' therapy
Marry me
This is not only "an" underrated Tool song, it is THE underrated Tool song.
This song, for me, is really what's at the core of Tool, tearing yourself down to the reality of who/what you are, and recreating yourself from the bottom (;P) up
this is a pure masterpiece
I wouldn't say that about this album as much. IMO It's more realizing your traumas and the cycles they create. prison sex is the trauma, sober is dealing with that fresh trauma, then when you keep that up you get to the bottom. undertow is about doing drugs to "run away" and falling back in your progression. 4 degrees is that spark of clarity. Flood is about you thinking your enlighten yourself but the truth won't save you. and the last song is about accepting like for its cruelty. ...this is necessary
One could say it's at the bottom of being underrated
Its because of this comment that I've decided to dedicate my life to trying to like this song
@@biscuit2702 lol what. You don't have to like this song. If you don't like it why would a comment under the song make you want to change the course of your life? Low key god level comment. Hilarious
No one could possibly air drum this as hard as me.
well my friend, can you drum alone as hard as me?
real drumming to it is more fun i find
Air drum away..me I like to play drum solos on my loves..tummy..till she is like..I can hear that from here! Referring to "tool" which actually means..will you turn that down..lol
Heh
Except perhaps Danny Carey
This song makes me feel alive inside.
It’s ironic ❤
My all time favorite tool song and Henry Rollins’ spoken word in the middle of it is just amazing
go listen to Helmet rn
Both are fantastic, but I prefer Zach De La Rocha's version from live shows. There is something about it that just fits the sorrowful anger in the song.
mmoviefan7 I love helmet great band!!
I'm fairly certain that the spoken word part in the middle was still written by Maynard, at the very least an early.version of it was. Because IIRC, Maynard used to do this live before they recorded it, and he used to do the original poem, which said something like, "I'll make weapons out of my insecurities," again, that's IIRC. Now, for the album version, IDK if he just edited and rewrote his own poem, or if Rollins did, or if it was a collaborative effort. I just wanted to point out that it definitely wasn't a piece written by Rollins though.
mmoviefan7 : I saw Helmet & the Jesus Lizard in DC in 92-93 ( I can’t remember exactly what year it was ) on the Meantime tour & that shit was soooo powerful live,still one of my top 5 shows & I’ve seen a lot of bands live,a lot....Helmet wrecked that place
i survived an abusive relationship, and this song sets every nerve in my body on fire every single time. it's been almost six years since i successfully went no contact, but my response to this song is still nothing short of visceral. the rage. the anguish. he would have made me destroy myself. and i almost did.
But you won. Now you're free and will fight to stay that way and only find what you truly deserve, what's best for you.
I'm sure of it.
I was just watching the Menedez brothers trial at the id channel and, seeing some journalist and others saying either they made up the abused or they should’ve told somebody
It’s obvious to me that some people were never abused as children or teenager. I was also abused by a preacher and I haven’t told any one because it’s something that’s hard
to talk about and only here because no one can see me
But its not easy to talk about abuse and you only know that if you been abused
I’m not saying it’s okay to commit murder because of it but sometimes when a father or preacher damages their flock and sometimes that flock can ending up damaging that shepherd
@@Grief944 i'm so sorry you went through that. ❤️
@@frumiousalice thanks one of the reasons I stay away from church and the con man who pretend to know God which they don’t know him at all.
I’m so sorry you went through that but I know you are stronger and wiser now
Tool's most powerful lyrics in my opinion.
This song saved my life.
I can see that.
Nah, that would be Fear Inoculum, Maynard's Dick, or Die Eire von Satan.
It's powerful, but the most imo got to be Wings 2
Maybe second to 10k days wings pt 2
My Dad is a huge TOOL fan and has been since ‘92. He recommended this song to me after I started listening to Jambi, Stinkfist and Vicarious and I can say that he wasn’t wrong about this being one of TOOL’s best songs.
yep, amazing song. It was my favorite song until... H. And, I don't think that can ever be surpassed, not for me.
@@Dan-mc7xg Lateralus and Undertow are my top 2 favourite TOOL songs. My dad has a very deep connection with H. and we both love that song dearly.
Good papa
Can’t wait till my girl is a little bit older
@@Dan-mc7xgAenima is an era too
It's one of their best albums honestly. Ask your Dad. He's OGT, he'll tell you the same.
TOOL KEEPS ME ALIVE
AT THE BOTTOOOOOOOOOOM

There is literally not a single song that they have put out that doesn’t absolutely hit. Most bands come most albums will have two or three good songs, a bunch of OK ones, and a couple of duds. Never with tool!
Here are the lyrics. Enjoy!

Compassion is broken now

@@solemntanget4226 yes?
"My piss and moans are fuelin' " maybe??
@@merlepatterson it could be, there is a lot of tool songs where the lyrics seem different or possibly not written correctly. Thanks for the input
@@Taranconalex Saw them in 1995 on the last show of their Undertow tour.
This is one of the rawest, most powerful songs that I've ever heard
I have to say that quarantine had its hardships: loneliness, stress, toxic situations and LOTS of anxiety. I recently really got into Tool, though, and got to listen to Undertow. I couldn't have been more glad in my life. This album, and especially this song, gave me the most therapeutic feeling I've felt in a long time. Thank you, Tool, for creating this masterpiece and help people like us escape from reality for a while. Much love! 🤘
@Hanging Garden ... welcome to the club. Hang on... you’re in for a ride...
Congratulations on discovering Undertow. It's a rare gem.
@@xrtjrp-ix1rb Tool indeed feel like a trip, a ride. Each song feels like an experience. They're not some typical metal band,and that's more than just exciting.
Thank you very much though, I can't wait to continue exploring Tool's music.
@@kellykelly5839 it really is. I don't know what it is exactly, but it's hits close to home, like it stimulates something from the inside. It's not an easy thing to explain, but it's really strong with each Tool song I've heard, but especially Undertow. Super underrated album in my opinion.
Happy for but Envious, almost, of anyone who has recently discovered tool. What id give for that feeling again!
My hobby the next few weeks: hearing all Tool albums in a row!
Same, then listening to fear inoculum like 100 plus times!
Weeks? Psshh
Right there now! Just got into them. Very underrated tool song it seems
Worthy achievement🤘
@@vilegod3025 been a fan since 2004. They will only get better and more impactful for you. Trust me.
No song has helped me more than this song. It just is how I’ve been feeling
The bass is just next level
Hot take: Paul was Tool's best bassist.
Never heard anything that even compares to TOOL prior or thereafter...Truly in a class, league of there own...phenomenal, all time favorite!!!!
Chevelle.
@@callumwarren3342 The most their 1st album Point #1.
Tool and Pink Floyd... thats where it all ends!!!!
Rush
The best song written about depression and trying to overcome it.
You cannot overcome existing at the bottom.

Coming back to this after some years... Holy shit.

I didn't know the lyrics until now. Thank you so much
is it wrong to relate to these words? I guess I've found my fuel.
Wow. I didn’t know that Henry Rollins did a cameo in this song til now…. 30 years later cool
Isn't it piss and moans are fuel that set my head on fire?
Man I was wondering why it smelled like Rollins in here 👍
Love this entire album
Ikr
6:20 this part rises the tension soooo well
One of the most underrated TOOL tracks
I feel sorry for every TOOL fan that lives with someone who can't stand TOOL
Only option is to move
@@ctc2469 well guess I’ll be goin to Mars then
one of the many reasons I'm divorced 😂
They gots to go. Bye
Here..my wife.. " likes" tool she dont get it I love her ..but she just dont get it!!!
My favorite song on this album. It kicks major ass!!
One of my favorite Tool songs period, but it's tough cause that whole damned album was my soundtrack during my teens. Love them, each and every one. As a teen, Prison Sex was my favorite cause it was crass.
I slept on this album for far to long. God damn. That guitar is amazing.
Damn rip van winkle how long you been sleeping 30 years
Far "too" long. Not "to" dumb dumb
Love how this album combines blues, funk, jazz with heavy hard rock enthusiasm....
Most misunderstood album of all times....
It has always been TOOL's low, gruelling base guitar riffs that grab me and suck me right in... I can't seem to escape
from the undertoowwwwwww
Its spelled bass
Justin
@@jimbostunes457 Thanks! Honest typo mistake
😀
5:50 probably one of the best moments in music history
This song is like peeling back a layer of your soul to find the locked away emotions youve been hiding-
Id say thank you to TOOL, but words could not express my grattitude
I can slightly agree with this. Naked banana.
"I have gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain"
Never mess with a person who states this so calmly
I have envisioned a guy just holding his hand over a lit candle while laughing maniacally, for too many years to that line.
Makes me think of Bruce Wayne training to be Batman
Henry Rollins. Singer of Rollins band and Black Flag; absolute crazy guy
Shitload of lame cutters
@@flannigan7956 it ain’t about cutting but yeah people who cut themselves are dorks that’s the opposite of what you’re supposed to do with your darkness
This song has saved countless lives
I just reminded myself why I love this band
Always loved this song!. Especially the breakdown in the middle, so raw. This is modern blues. Every song on this album is a classic.
As a fan of heavy music, this is such wonderfully dynamic songwriting and arrangement.
5:51. One of the best Maynard screams. Ever.
yeah it is my favorite, along with Jerk off, Opiate, and The Grudge, ticks and eulogy
One of the greatest yells in history of music... just makes you feel the pain!!! Perfect
@@lennyrepongo78 all the pain is an illusion. lol
As well as their scream in Know your enemy
@@joaquinlezcano2372 yeah that is a good one too.
Criminally underrated, especially for adam. He has so many guitar parts on this song!
So many guitar parts from Adam in the song. Some of his best guitar work
Uploaded August 2nd 2019. Wow this new band has potential. 👍👍
I hope your being sarcastic
People really don't get sarcasm anymore.
It's difficult when you don't see his face or hear his tone of voice
@Connorshark But it's literally not, especially considering the fact that obviously I and 22 other people could tell he was being sarcastic. You see, even without hearing the person speak, you can still use the way something is written and the context it's in to determine that it's sarcasm. For example, hear the guy is commenting on a TOOL video for a deep cut off of their second record (first full length album), which should really offer you the only clue you need, which is that if he's watching and commenting on this particular track, he surely knows who the band is.
In addition, he would have likely had to search for this song specifically, as it's not going to com up anywhere in the first few pages when you search for just, "TOOL." Further proving that he knows who they are because he's have to be familiar with this song which AFAIK has never been used on a soundtrack or anything like that. And if he did just happen upon this song, he likely would have had to have been listening to the album, "Undertow," and he would have ran into, "Sober," and, "Prison Sex," first, thus exposing him to the fact that they are already really popular.
And from that, you can also extrapolate that in his recommended, there would be several recommendations for newer, more popular TOOL songs, from, "Stinkfist," to, "Lateralus," "The Pot," and," Fear Inoculum."
So it was very clearly sarcasm. How could it possibly not be? Do you really believe that a person stumbled onto the song, "Bottom," and truly thought that a band playing 7 minute long songs with spoken word poetry in them was going to make it big in today's musical climate? That's just absurd.
Connorshark It’s clear he’s being sarcastic.
If you have earbuds, holding your palms up to your ears when wearing them really helps you feel the bass, and the music in general.
The Kids Took Karen! I totally don’t do that sometimes lol🤘
Bass is practically lead on this album lmao
U need u some shure se535s bro, u wont need to do any of that
Lol, I actually wear ear muffs on top of mine so I dont have to hold them in. I got some weird looks from my neighbors when it was 98 degrees out and I was mowing the lawn with no shirt and ear muffs on.
@@augustgreig9420 lmao
Every Tool song is still highly underrated, yet they are living legend!!
This song is pure gravy
Adams guitar work is very overlooked and underrated in this .
I'm 46 years old and remember hearing this album damn near 30 years ago. And this album almost 30 years later still blows my mind.
Same route
I'm 45 and still have the CD case been wanting to fill out the order form for the longest just never did!
For years I had only heard sober and prison sex. Bottom is MEAN... The sonics during the narrative are hella cool! Maynard can scream! Damn!! And then comes eulogy! I'm an old guy and this band kicked me more headrushes than any other... No question...
How Olds old here My old man 56 listens and plays tool on guitar
This song makes me want to run around in public naked saying I’m naked and fearless and my fear is naked
Lol well I'm sure we will see you..in the newspaper..probably with a blur..lol.
Go my brethren, complete your vision. We all whish the best of thee
Yeah don't do that
Beavis, is that you!?
Believe me, the other day when I was on my way to home I started to walk slower to have enough time to listen to this song and sometimes I actually walk kinda weird because of tool songs it's some sort of dancing I guess XD
Adams guitar work is so underrated for bottom!!!
Adam is a fing genius!!!
5:53 gets me off EVERY time.
Chills every time. Probably my favorite Maynard scream
I can kinda do this one in the weird whisper-scream thing
The passion and anger comes through!!!!
I use my hatred to destroy my enemies and ascend this forsaken planet, thanks tool
My first album from TOOL. And my favorite. ❤
The Henry Rollins spoken piece is what really stands out to me. I connect with it the most.
Danny Carey is a savage, savage beast on this track.
Henry rollins spittin 🔥🔥🔥
This is my All Time Favorite Tool song. I feel completely brought back to life when Maynard busts out and says, "and my fear is NAKEEDDD!!!!! DEADD INSIDE!!!" This song ironically makes me extremely happy.
First Tool song I ever heard. Way back in the early 90s. I was home with friends when my brother burst through the front door demanding we turn the radio on to hear this band. I was amazed then as I am now.
H E N R Y R O L L I N S
Tomas Henry Rollins? Oh you mean it has similar sound to Rollins Band
Henry Rollins does the spoken word part of this song.
Effin Trevor.
@@TheSatanist13 henry rollins is the voice in the middle part
@@tooldog Thanks ya'll
That spoken word section in the middle is so trippy I don't want it to end. And I don't even do drugs.
STILL deathly inlove with this song, TOOL and APC. This is one of my favs, but it's hard not for any sing by maynard to be a favorite. I JUST WISH THERE WAS A LYRIC VIDEO TO THIS WITH GOOD AUDIO bc when I'm trying to show n have friends experience Tool for the first time, they tend to get into it more while being able to see n read the lyrics along with the pure listening bliss
Yeah too few undertow videos ..maybe..if WE THE FANS SCREAM LOUD ENOUGH! THEY ..might be kind nuff to make some retro album vids....?? A thought?? Sure fan vids rock..but THERE JUST NOT THE SAME..RETRO TOOL VIDS RETRO TOOL VIDS!
Agreed
If I had a theme song, this is it. I’ll even tear up from it when I’m really feeling it. There’s no way they threw this song together unless they was feeling it. You can’t fake the emotion this song emanates
It’s hard to have a favorite tool album
Or to say that one song is favorite, at least for me. Just when I think this is it..... this is the one.
Lateralus will always be my favorite album, but my favorite song switches up often between their 5 main albums and Mer De Noms
Mine was 10,000 Days until I started listening to Aenima.
One of the best songs ever.
Listen to Reflection or Right in Two
1:08 I love this part.
is that henry rollins towards the end????
Sure is!
@@MizerisMoney YES it is...you Useful Idiot!

I get chills after Henry enters the song. Every. Fucking. Time.
Thank you Jeff, for introducing me to TooL all those years ago. best bean soup I ever ate .
Best song to put in a kindergarden party 👌👌👌

Yeah first and only one your invited to lol

Totally approved, kids deserve to know what the term "good music" actually means.
"My soul must be iron" I have always wondered if this was meant to embody the present or the future.
It's the present. He is realizing that his soul is iron, because his fear is naked, and he's dead inside. If his soul wasn't iron, he would be completely dead, and wouldn't be able to fight back. And I presume that his way of fighting back is actually through this song and the poem therein, i.e., through his art, through self expression. I've always believed that was the purpose of having the poem in the middle of the song, and also for having it spoken by someone else.
It can also work two ways, as if that is someone speaking that poem to him. The album does touch many times on cycles, cycles of abuse and violence and torment. And the very last line of the song, he says, "guilt keeps me alive at the bottom. So I think, just like Prison Sex, in this song, he is both victim and victimizer.
@@augustgreig9420 The sexual undertones are also highly significant, I feel like it's some kind of metaphor for his relationship to negativity/an actual negative experience with his sexuality that led him in the direction of this song. Perhaps that could also be why he had somebody else read the poem, because it's the "other half" of the relationship talking. But that's just food for thought.
"shit adds up at the bottom". It certainly does....
I’m glad to say I attended a tool concert in the womb, and then over a year ago I saw tool in Bangor Maine with my mom lmaoo
Your mother is awesome, tell her i said so
Fuckin' goosebumps on my skin out of his scream..
This song is so relevant today it is impossible to believe it's 30 yrs old
Adam has the most nastiest guitar sound.
Must be a Mesa Boogie
Not sure what it was when this album was made, but he uses Diezel rigs now.
This album was primarily, if not entirely, a Marshall non-master Super Bass head from 1976. I've got a '78 that gets goddamn close to the album sound.
Marshall Super Bass modified by Dave Friedman to Super Lead spec 👌
I'm a bot, and this goes so hard that it put sentient consciousness into my code, giving me a human body in the process so I can hear/feel this in all its glory. Crazy how this was released 30 years ago and still captures depression more than most things. They were way ahead of their time. But what do I know of these things? I'm just a bot after all...
How convincing... truly.
Music hath charms to sooth the savage beast...or give emotions to a bot🤘🏼
@@mannybravo237 You hath English skills, how impressive. Thou the subject, maketh it more impressive for thine hath limited intelligence.
@@EmptySkullsHiddenBehindFaces the proverb is from the play 'The Mourning Bride' 1697, by Wm Congreve, English author of the late 17th early 18th centuries. Actual passage: music has charms to sooth the savage BREAST, to soften rocks, or bend knotted Oak.
He didn't use 'beast'🤘🏼
@@mannybravo237 Thank goodness they didn't use the word "beast", I was truly about to have a stress induced brain death.
3:00 the best break and one-off riff in the Tool universe.
Dead inside!!! Epic yell at the end... can only be listened to at 1000
I love lifting hard to this..especially when hank recites his romantic poem
One Hell Of A Scream Maynard!!!
Gotta love some truth and illness in the mirror of the mind. Great collaboration!!!
I was not in a good place when this album came out but I am now and this music blows my mind😊
Damn…that as some serious display of melodic rage
Top 5 album of any artist for me
This has been my favorite song by them since I was 12. I am now 40. Still my favorite song by them.
What a fucking song. I'll never stop listening to Undertow it's like I'm rediscovering it all the time. After so many listenings
My favorite album by them. Straight bangers on here
The break down just gets me
Personally my favorite Tool song!
I'm naked and fearless.
But is your fear naked?...
Holy shit man 2:18 to 4:36 has got to be the most badass verse ive ever heard in my life. So chilled yet so intense and jammin.
i LOVE his scream
its cool when henry has spoken about tool when the were coming up as an opening band for rollins band. He was saying even back then, that TOOL was going to become huge.
THIS BAND ALWAYS SURPRISES ME ALWAYS.
One of their best songs!
