TOOL - Eulogy (Guitar Cover with Play Along Tabs)

- Guitar cover of "Eulogy" by TOOL with on-screen tabs - learned by ear, multiple live performances and other covers.
Hope you enjoy the video! Please post your suggestions! :)
Eulogy has been requested so many times in the comments, so here we go! Such a masterpiece of a song and an essential piece in Ænima.
This one always hits home. One of the tracks that will always make me come back to this album again and again. I know that according to some sources, the lyrics are not really directed towards Jesus, but more towards the founder of a well known sect. But Eulogy (and Ænima in general) have certainly shaped my opinion on religion and beliefs in general.

Another song to learn from the Ænima album. Thank you sir for providing such an awesome video with a great layout with the tabs and everything. Makes learning these songs very friendly and not too much of a hassle.
Just simply watch, take a segment to learn, watch the tabs, pause, play, rewind, play repeat until I'm confident I got it down (this goes for everyone else too if you're here for the same reason I am 😎) , then move to the next segment. Eventually do that enough and boom, now I got the whole song down. Very awesome work man, keep on making those fantastic videos my good sir 👍🏼😎
So awesome that my videos work out for you! Have fun learning 🤘☺️
@@MaxNiessl Oh I will sir, thank you. 🤘🏼😎
@@MaxNiessl they help me a lot as well. You have a gift. Thank you very much! 👍
I use a different learning process, I just hit play and try to pick from where I can throughout the song, and then, the parts I cant get right through multiple listenings I come back to work on them. Try it out
Hell yess I didn’t even know the guitar was even being played in the beginning
I know right? I thought that was Danny on the electronic pads!
my mouth dropped to the floor when I saw it wasnt post prod or electronic drums
Really?
You all are gonna shit your pants when you learn what those musical stabs and motif/melody are.
I’ll save you the trouble: If you saw Tool live on the Ænima tour, you got to see Maynard showing his pistol skills by double-tapping a megaphone while singing the melody that shows up in the breakdown (“You’ve claimed all this time…”). So that’s not an overdubbed guitar or programmed percussion as some have said: It’s just Maynard, his megaphone, and some reverb/delay (but he does tap the megaphone trigger twice to sound both notes - that is not a delay effect).
I had no idea that’s how he made the sound at the beginning! I always thought it was some kind of exotic percussion instrument.
The whole intro is so confusing. I also thought that Maynard's sounds were guitar before I learned this song back in the day 🤘
Speaking of cool sounds what is making the noise that sounds like an echo in the background at beginning of track?
@@rebelduck9077 I think that Justin using his whammy pedal with harmonics
I know right!
Everyone in Tool is so incredibly creative
I can’t wait for reflection
Still waiting...
You’re the reason why I’m getting better at guitar. Thank you
Awesome, Chris!
Without a doubt. I’m a drummer. The rhythms and time signatures are second nature but these tabs make the instrument make so much more sense to me. It’s fascinating to watch to be honest.
One of the first Tool songs I learned when I was starting out, my friends in high school would come over back in 2001 and be so impressed when I played along to this lol
This was the second tune I learned from Aenima (never learned all the riffs though) The first was 46&2, still play that song all the time on guitar (including some of the bass parts) I impressed more than one girl in high school playing that :D
I can totally relate. H.S. and hours spent practicing this, soad, Linkin Park, mudvayne, stair way, Pink Floyd. Damn I'm old now....ha!
i always thought you could do something fun with that part of the guitar strings, but i never realized Tool did it!
I can 100% confirm this is how the verses are played. I went to the Tool Music Clinic in Philly and they actually ran through this song. I play it live in our Tool tribute, and I've seen so many covers where that riff is wrong. Seeing him play it from a few feet away was a huge bonus trying to figure out that riff. Perfect job man!
He also does the pull down technique on the riff that ends on 1. 0-2-2-2-0-3-3-0-5-5-0-3-Pull through technique on 1
Thank you! I was actually really wondering whether he was pulling through from the second fret on the main verse riff. Hard to hear on the record and almost no live footage. Glad to get some assurance on that riff. Cheers 🤘
@@MaxNiessl Yeah when I saw him go from the 2, to a quick open and pull down on 3, I was so happy to FINALLY figure it out. You did it perfect! It's funny cause as he was talking to us in the music clinic he discussed his pull down/through trick and how the guys in the band make fun of him for using it ALL THE TIME. After he showed it to us, he used the riff in Eulogy I talked about above, and seeing the pull down on the 1st fret to end the riff was his prime example. I'd never have figured that one out, it's more subtle than all the other riffs he does that, weird he chose that one to say that's what he does it on, lol.
Also getting to stand where he does and see his entire setup was so priceless. Couldn't take pics without our phones obviously, but I saw it all. They played to 150 of us like it was a full stadium tour crowd. He was asked a lot about his setup, and in typical Adam fashion he deflected and kept a lot secret. He wouldn't answer his pickup question, someone even asked about his volume pots, he politely danced around that one. A lot of parts that you would think he boots with EQ or his Micro Amp, he doesn't. His pickups are absolutely custom, and not the Super Distortion he is now claiming publicly. They may have started out as those, but the A and high D stings sing so loud they have to be modded. Always keeping us guessing.
I have a 1980 Custom SIlverburst and had a talk with Seymour Duncan on my bridge pickup. They said they can't make me "His" pickup, but they could get me close. I have a Custom SH5 they tweaked a bit, sounds great in my setup, LOVE it.
@@mikebrennan9633 That's so cool, man! And I'm just here, wanting to see them live for once. I hope they are still doing a Fear Inoculum tour here in Germany after the pandemic. I also think that the secrecy in Tool makes Tool what it is. I really love the fact that even all of us Tool fanatics don't know everything :D
That's weird because I saw them live in '98 second row from the stage and Adam was using the pull through technique on the second fret during the verses. But he would pull it hard - at least a half bend - which is I think where people get the third fret from. It always stuck in my head because every tab/cover I've ever seen has people playing it on the third fret, but that day I saw it up close he was most certainly pulling a hard second fret.

Thanks, bud! 🤘
Ah! I never know what to comment, but I can't overlook this one. Eulogy is my favourite song, and you absolutely killed it! Thanks for your dedication to TOOL songs!
Thank you very much, Cynthia! Glad you liked it ☺️
@@MaxNiessl You're AMAZING, so thank you!!!
1)I always thought that the kazoo was a keybord
2)I think the main rytm with the strings behind the bridge was danny with weird drum pads
3)The first thing i learn in guitar from this underrated song, was the kazoo melody xd
4)Flawless cover mate
Thank you! The starting rhythm is definitely guitar. You can see it in every live performance. Tool do not compose something that they can't play live :)
The “kazoo” is 100% Maynard using his megaphone and manipulating it’s trigger to emulate a delay effect.
You are doing the lord's work... I'll say it again...I thought i knew this song guitarwise...Now i have a whole new perspective on the song thanks to you... It'll be so much more fun now listening to it and playing it once you see all the intricacies...Thank you kind sir and bless your immaculate ear
That's awesome! Glad you get some value out of this! Thank you very much ☺️
Thanks to your shirt I just discovered the band Katatonia.
*Nice Band*
It's not a kazoo. It's a vocalization Maynard does with a megaphone.
Most likely yes, at least live he does it with his megaphone mic. Very cool for sure!
I find it a little weird that Maynard is sitting in the shadows, just going "Ah, Ah, Ah" into a megaphone for 2 minutes
@@darkySp Eh, that's pretty typical Maynard behaviour
What part?
@@darkySp Maybe he goes meep meep like the roadrunner
Yo I can't tell you how many times I come back to these tool videos. Amazing bro
Excellent, really appreciate that you get Adam's triplet pull off technique correct, he uses it in so many songs.
Don't think I can do that intro with my tremlo . So I will just bang my heater with a pipe lol. This was awesome.
Lol, please cover that :D
One of my favs from AEnima, I really didn't expect the beginning of the song to be played like that lmao. As always, amazing cover man, I always get impressed by the amount of work spent on them.
Thank you so much! Always glad to be able to shed some light on those tricky parts :)
Bestimmt schon tausendfach gehört und trotzdem hast du mir hier einige Details aufgezeigt, die mir so nicht bewusst waren. Über deinen Sound und deine Technik brauche ich ja nichts mehr zu sagen 😜 Großartig!
Vielen Dank, Tibor! ☺️ Der Song spielt sich tatsächlich sehr anders, als man ihn zuerst hört :D
Awesome bro. I took out my guitar almost immediately, when i saw you play. Perfect.
This is the song which introduced Tool to my neurones doors.. it was the first sound I heard from them in the debut of the summer of 1998... never get tired of it till this moment !
Seriously good. Thanks
What a legend. My favourite UA-cam channel. Cant wait for The Pot to eventually find it’s way on here
One of my favourite Tool songs! The main riff is powerful as hell yet so simple
Perfect! I do believe you hit every nuance exactly! Such a powerful song that indeed changed my life as well. When I first heard this song I was offended but also amazed. Lol I’ve come a long way since then and my whole philosophy has been changed , and it literally all started with my internal struggle that began with this song challenging my old beliefs.
It's such a powerful song! I respect everyone's beliefs and their own philosophy, but mine has definitely changed since I've listened to Tool. Lateralus has definitely had the biggest impact on me becoming an atheist, but Ænima definitely did it's part :)
You can feel this video was made with passion and also the cover itself!
Thank you!
Thank you! 🤘
“Maynards kazoo thingy” 🤣 we need a tool cover band with that name!
Another banger, dude. The level of detail you put into these transcriptions is amazing, you deserve way more credit. Out of all the YT channels I see providing Tool covers, you are ahead of them by miles. Good job and keep it up!
Thank you very much, Janis! I really strive to give the best quality transcription and expand on it post video 🤘 all updates are noted in the description and the updated tabs can be downloaded from my website :)
Ænima fever! Well done bro 👍🏼
Thank you! :)
AMAZING!!!
thank you so much for the tabs I love to learn songs through your videos!
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
AEnima has the greatest guitar tone of all time.
Eric Johnson has better tone bro
Amazing cover mate, and amazing Katatonia shirt! ;)
Thank you!
Thanks dude, that was awesome
Anrgy comments incoming about the black-out at 6:42, lol. Great cover as always man!
Haha maybe! But you can see the recording line in the background ;)
And thank you of course! :)
@@MaxNiessl I can't see shit during that tbh.
@@LeoBassCovers2 Haha after the black screen lol :D
The best Guitar sound on youtube
Great job as always, really appreciate the work you do here!
I stopped playing guitar a few years ago, I just got into TOOL a few months back, and your videos have been an amazing way to pick it up where I left off, never realized how much a really good tab can help, beeing able to play TOOL thanks to your help is a true blessing, specially during these hard times. Keep up with the incredible work!
Glad to be able to make a difference! Have fun learning those songs and with diving into the world of Tool :)
Good work Max! Adam is an amazing and creative guitarist and I can never get close enough at their concerts to watch him. Thanks so much for covering this track! 💕🤟🏼
Thank you, as always! You're very welcome! Hope you're staying safe in those uncertain times :)
Fricking love this. Never stop. And I love ur tattoo :')
Thank you! :)
Love your TOOL covers and much appreciation for the tabs! All the best!
Thank you! :)
I never knew that they played the intro on the guitar behind the bridge. Great stuff man!
Thank you for sharing this. Back in 1998 I had what tabs I could find. Your version seems much more correct. Also, I finally figured out how to do that loop through technique due to this video of yours. It feels so good once I finally nailed it and now it becomes an unconscious rhythm which is so nice.
*pull through
Really nice Max. Really really nice. You got it bro. Good job.
Thanks, bud!
No doubt you been studying Adam. Keep up the good work 👏
Excellent job Maximus!! You nailed all the little nuances and your dynamics were impeccable. I didn't realize until just now that the rhythm guitar part is played with the finger pull thru technique on the 3rd position which would F. Great use of dynamics Max. If I could give you any advice, it would be to invest in a good volume pedal, especially when playing TOOL. Great job Max!!
Thank you, Bradley! I will definitely invest in a pedal sometime. You can plug in multifunctional pedals in the Kemper and use it for effects and volume :)
didn't even start the video yet but im so excited i know you gonna do a great job, i was waiting for this Max ! yup you did an amazing job !
Thank you! 🤘
Yes!
You are my new guitar/youtuber fav :D good job
Thank you!
Excellent as always. So great to finally have some verification on the pull-through techniques on this. Sounds so much better than the other way. Also that outro riff was new to me! Verified you are correct on the live videos, so thanks for letting me finally play the song correctly after 23 years! I'd like to request "jimmy" as the part around 4:21-4:35 has always been too difficult to decipher and I think only you can rise to the challenge. I really like the addition of the pedal display, but I think you should go one further and potentially display the approximate volume/tone knob setting during areas where Adam rolls back on the volume or tone. Though honestly, these are so good it doesn't matter. Thank you so much for the dedication. These songs mean so much to so many, and it is great to see them done this much justice!
Thank you! I was also thinking about adding a volume knob display, but it's one extra thing that I have to add - extra time that flows into the video. We'll see! I'd love to learn Jimmy one day :)
When I first learned that Adam was playing the percussive part at the intro, it was during a live clinic! I was looking around trying to find where it was coming from and the only thing moving was Adams hand 😂. Awesome video! This was flawless and really helps out beginners like me.
Exquisite as always sir. Keep up the good work and maybe do Reflection/Holy Triad someday :)
As I see your Katatonia T-shirt, It would be awesome seeing you playing one of their songs. Awesome video as always, thanks for your amazing work
Thank you! I would honestly love to do that, but I would need a baritone guitar for their music :/
Amazing Job
that beautiful guitar makes some good noise !!
Brilliant. Well done! Thank you!!!
Divine
420 out of 10!
I love your videos and your guitar as well :D
PS:I learned this song in ''only'' one hour!
Thank you sooo damn much!
That's so cool! Glad the video helped you 🤘
I just so like your playing and the note accuracy. You make me feel like Adam Jones for some moments💪🏼✌🏾
Awesome, bud! Thank you 🤘
Loved it!! I always look forward to your videos! Definitely gonna get a Epiphone Les Paul myself
Thank you! I can definitely recommend an Epiphone :)
Spot on awesome man.
Max, I went to your site yesterday, it is very well put together. Well done. When I learn some songs i'll donate. :)
Glad to hear that, Justin! 🤘
Incredible as always :D
Thanks, Jared 🤘
Finally! My dude. You rock, man. Incredible, thanks so much for these.
Thank you! :)
perfect tunes and perfect execution, continue likes this...
Wow! Thanks man!
Amazing
man you always do a really good job with these covers
i would love to see you do the patient its my favourite song
Definitely sometime! Thank you 🤘
Man. I learned that song (or parts of it :D ) with the help of a tab with good rating, however, the rhythm in the verse always sounded off. I couldn't put my finger on it. But now that I hear your ending to the verse bar, it sounds much more like the original. Otherwise also fantastic!
Brilliant cover again Max! Look forward to learning it 😎
Seeing as everyone else is asking for covers, I think you can do a great cover of Die Eier von Satan? 😉
Haha thanks! I guess I'll have to buy steam locomotive for that cover, though 🤔
Here we have a spiritual successor for Opiateofthemasses:D
Very nice!
👀
Minus the original gear :P
@@LucasGonzalez-du9qd, there is always room for improvisation :P
I love the way you make your videos, I'm trying to do something similar (obviously with other bands) and it's really hard
Glad i found this channel you make the tabs easy to read!
Glad you like my content, bud! 🤘
Pretty sure Maynard wrote this is about L Ron Hubbard. He also mentions him in Ænima.
I know, said that in the description. I just don't want to have that name in my description specifically :)
It’s fine max, I’ll do the dirty work for you :)
EY you did it! Fuck yes and you nailed it my man 🔥
Haha thank you! 🤘
Recently discovered your channel. Solid man, liked and shared. You are an inspiration
Thank you, Keynun!

Another awesome cover! Thanks for posting man.
I wish I could like this video more than once! Amazing stuff, thank you!
That was great! awesome job right there really inspiring! Thank you
Great cover as always my friend. Awesome job!
Thank you, Paul! :)
Amazing as always l..l, i would like to see you playing Wings for Marie and 10,000 days!
Hello, i really enojyed the sound, the visuals and the lesson, so danke schön! Also i always thought that in the verse he only plays second fret and makes his pull off thing on it too, I also seen it getinn played like this so many times but not by Adam tho, not sure if theres footage where u can see what hes playin ecactly.
Gern geschehen! Yep, I honestly don't know. I can't make it out from live footage we got. I definitely hear an ascent when the pull-through comes, but it could just be the little bend. I've always played it like this, but you could be right. Gotta put it in the description :)
Solid! Love the quality 💪
I was just in the middle of putting my 2 year old kid to sleep, and this pops up... I sprinted to get my headphones and get back to him, he was a bit confused what the hell just happened, but I told him he'll understand when he'll grow up...
That's so sweet! ☺️
god DAMN this is good....
Thank you 🤘☺️
Wow man, you did it again! Haha. Great cover! Glad youre keeping it up - thanks to you, i always have a new song to learn 🔥 thanks man, I always loved this song🤙💪
Awesome, bud! Very glad to hear that 💪 keep on spiraling 🤘

Right!

Well done, man!
Great Job Buddy!
Outstanding as always!!!
What is the instrument making the beeping noise in the beginning of the song?
Thks
Thank you! It's actually Maynard with his megaphone :)
Ahh ok.. thks max, keep up the good work, we love your tool tutorials
Man I’ve posted my attempt at this song but I come back and look at how you play it and realise how shit I still play it 😂 one day I’ll be as good as you
Will you be doing 46&2 ? It's a fun song and I bet you would knock it out of the park. Thanks Max N
Great videos bro
Your videos are such a big inspiration to grab a guitar and start playing, then i try to play then i realize i suck , anyway great video as always, i think you should try a porcupine tree song, or any song that as acoustic guitar from opeth, it would fun for me since im learning more in the acoustic but thats just me !
Thank you, bud! You will get there eventually, you can do it :) I definitely want to do some songs with an accoustic guitar since I've got some mics now :)
fuckkkk yes keep em coming man
Great as per usual!!! Not to be that "one" but I'm wondering, do you consider, maybe, do tabs on No Quarter (the TOOL's cover)? Just asking for a friend 😆
Thank you, Nadya! Definitely want to learn "No Quarter" some time. Both versions actually :)
