Song is about getting old, losing your edge, feeling broken down as years get by, being a shell of yourself. Tool songs can be interpreted differently but main concept is getting old. Its a universal feeling, everyone nostalgias their youth. Thats why its so powerful.
This song is the definition of fine wine. It literally gets better the older you get. I promise, in your 30s and beyond this song will take on a whole new meaning.
I was always curious how people like you would feel. Dead serious, because this is yet another song that has multiple meanings. Literal warriors who have aged out of efficacy, themselves as a band that used to be the new hot thing and are now aging, and just man period getting older and realizing their vigor is slipping. I just turned 40, and when this came out I was thinking how this would continue to resonate over time. For you, care to elaborate? I don’t have combat experience aside from fist fights here and there in school and being dumb in my 20s. But for you, your stakes were the highest. You’ve bonded with other brothers in combat. You’ve felt what I would assume is the most alive and closest to death at the same time. I can only imagine. But with all due respect, I’m curious. And obviously, your service is graciously appreciated.
@deltaunder1872 it's strange. It's been over 20 years since my first combat deployment with 1st Tank Bn(back when the Marines still had tanks). We were the ones who pulled the statue of Saddam down in Baghdad. What we thought of as a joke and an excuse to destroy something turned into an historical event my kids read about in history class. I've seen and done horrific things, watched close friends get hurt and killed, made closer friends with the ones who made it. We've all long since retired, aside from some buddies who are Sergeants Major. I watch the conflicts happening across the world and hope that American kids don't have to go through what we did. War is a strange thing. Long periods of boredom sometimes, and then other times things are so chaotic that you're going on 36 hours no sleep and pure adrenaline. Some of the guys lived off Ripped Fuel which is now a banned substance. But I still wish I was there. You'll never feel so alive ever again. It felt primal, like a rite of passage. A baptism of fire. And I'd take the place of any kid if need be to stand up and fight for this country again. I'm 43, out of shape with a bad back and a full beard. But I can still shoot. I miss it, but my body sure doesn't.
This track hits me hard, as I grow older. As a father of 4, my top priority has always been to be a provider and it's what's always fueled me. I struggle as my kids grow older and can now provide for themselves and as beautiful as that is, my shield feels less useful and my armor seemingly wears thinner with each passing day. What a brilliant piece. Absolutely love your appreciation for the masterful musicianship and lyricism. Please keep your content coming. Cheers!
Agreed. This track is all of us, as we grow older. I'm 53, our daughter is 19, in college, figuring things out every day. I just visited my 82 year old father in the hospital today, trying to get rid of issues so he can come home and stay "consequential". None of this is easy, and it's all a worthy part of the struggle.
@corey6393 Thank you for sharing, my friend. I'm 42 with a 23 year old daughter, 19 year old daughter, and two boys soon to be out of high school. My dad, who was 83, passed earlier this year from dimensia/Alzheimsers and my mother, who was 54 at the time, passed away in early 2017 from complications of a sudden aneurysm. Depending on your beliefs, life is fleeting; and I find comfort in our shared experiences. Time was, is, and always... the ultimate valuator.
We are all warriors by virtue of living in this world, in one way or another. I’m 58. This song hits hard at this stage of life in a way that can’t be put into words. The weight of it increases with the accumulation of life experience. I get emotional whenever I hear it, beyond logic.
if you really want to see how talented or/and skilled Danny Carey is, you have to see Pneuma concert drumcam, no drumming skills required, just watching the master at work
This song is an example of a polyMETER. Most of the band is in a fast 7/8 (every note on the guitar is a counted note, so 7 guitar notes is 1 bar). The drums are (for about half the song) also playing in 3/8. So for every 3 notes the guitar plays, a drum will be hit once. Danny is still holding a 7/8 along with that 3/8. Being 7/8 with a 3/8 pulse (what you were nodding to and called the metronome) means they will line up every 3 bars of 7/8 or every 7 bars of 3/8.
Agreed. But I always hear it as Adam playing in 7/16. Justin plays in 7/8. So Adam plays 2 bars for every 1 that Justin plays. Danny plays in 7/8, but does have the 3, 3/4 ts quarter notes, going on as well. Because they do repeat/realign after every 3 bars of 7/16. We might both be right, I'm just thinking about it different mathematically. I guess how it feels? And don't get me started on the chorus. When it switches to 14/16. All of this I mostly got from this video. ua-cam.com/video/tLvxWix_Pzw/v-deo.html
@Sohum Adding and commenting off of the comment above; Adam and Justin playing 7/16 and 7/8 isn't really worth saying "different time signatures" as different instruments playing quarters and eighths happens in every song (in this case eighths and sixteenths). It is just more important if you were to write it down or teach someone. I tried to "teach" you how to count the 3 and 7 using Adam's guitar, but if the guitar is going double speed, then I would have taught improperly. The biggest note is Danny playing the 3/8 over the 7/8. Polyrythem and Polymeter are the two poly "types" in music. However, Polyrythem is the most popular term thrown around and is used incorrectly a lot. You not hearing about a polymeter makes sense due to this. Thing to note, syncopation can be construed as a poly type. All three terms make more sense when understanding that they are used to help read and teach music. I don't have time to explain syncopation but it is different. This stuff is a class in and of itself and I am probably overwhelming you already.
For some reason this song always gives me the vibes of an aging Saxon warrior in the late 800s /earlier 900s trudging through the snows of Northumbria to go south and join up with the men of Wessex and one more time raise that “battle cry” and fight one more battle against the Dane’s Great Heathen Army of Viking raiders.
One thing with Tool, if you hear some sound that you can’t identify, listen for what instrument is missing in the mix. Many times it’s Justin doing something unique with the bass guitar or less often, Damny either doing synth work or even playing a second guitar with Adam like in the beginning of Culling Voices.
Caligua was, according to what's written about him, quite the character. Power abuse and humiliation of his court and the nobility(in the worst ways) and almost bankrupting the state by building grandiose buildings(some that didn't make much sense). Some of the most famous stuff he allegedly did was threatening to make his horse consort and upon his soldiers refusing to attack Britain he made them pick seashells on the shore. Something that is kinda funny is that it's probably exaggerated to a degree because he was not a liked emperor so the people that wrote about him after his passing did him in the worst possible way. Also the name Caligua(soldierboot) is by it self a humiliating for him since it was his old nickname from his youth joining his father on campaigns and definitively not what he called himself. Professor Mary Beard has a excellent doc on him. But cool reaction. I like the breakdowns.
Some of your initial reactions to things have taken me years of listening to pick up on. Bravo! That's the magic of Tool... The music is like a piece of geometry that you can enter from any side or angle and get lost in for some time before you venture on to other perspectives.
Time is the real battle and we will all succumb to it eventually... it is what we do with the time we have. The struggle to remain relevant is the this struggle. We do this with acts of creation. This can be physical like art & architecture or ephemeral like teaching & caring for others. So long as you have put your energy into something that will ripple outward in time longer than this mortal shell. HOW you can do this changes as we change & adapting to this change is the meaning of life it self (in my opinion). We are the meaning makers, we are the dreamers of the dreams.
I'll be your friend in real life🤘 Tool is incredible and we could jam out whenever you want lol I have seen fan theories that say this song is about the band themselves. Getting older, fighting father time, a constant struggle to stay relevant and in the end we all chase the fountian of youth (hence, the Ponce de Leon reference)
I love your Tool reactions. If ever there was a band you want to geek out with your friends about, its Tool. Dont sweat drum knowledge for the Pneuma drum cam, its just beautiful to watch.
They are heavily influenced by King Crimson, especially 80’s Crim. And I just saw Danny Carey (drums) play the 80’s Crim with Belew, Levin, an Vai. Check out Discipline by King Crimson.
This has definitely been my warmup on guitar. The intro riff rewards clean fretting and pick accuracy, start slow. The marching breakdown just feels so good once you nail Adam’s pull off technique too.
2:13 there are a number of tracks in 4/4 time by Tool but most of what they play is in odd time (they like 7/8) and changes time throughout the track save for their first 2 albums and even quite a bit of the 3rd
You, good sir, are the ideal recipient for Neil's profound and insightful lyrics. I'm so excited for you to continue this journey through their music and philosophy. My life has greatly improved from their art. I wish the same for you. Enjoy the ride!
There's nothing better than experiencing Tool with your friends, and the amazing discussions that are created through their sonic and lyrical wizardry!!!
Your thoughts on sharing Tool is exactly how I feel and probably why everyone else is here. You absolutely cannot force tool on someone who's not ready.
You don't have to be a drum expert to appreciate Danny Carey's videos at work: you just need to like music and realize how difficult it is to play at a certain level. You'll be amazed! You don't have to be an art expert to be left breathless in front of a Bernini statue... here it's the same.
this song is about age creeping up on you, and when you notice it, your just trying to reclaim your youth, and still try to provide the same service as you one did.
the track as a whole is in 7/4 regarding guitar, vocals, bass and main drums , but the click thing is in 3/8 and a tom pattern carries that throughout too.
The “synth” and “cool effect” on the guitar were both bass! Bass with a delay, and a “bass solo” essentially. This band (really, Justin) was the first one to really draw my attention to bass as something other than a background instrument that just augmented a song. So cool.
11:04 believe it or not this is bass right here not guitar... Justin is using effects to emulate a guitar with his bass. Adam is playing the riff in behind the bass... It's soo cool and happens more than you'd think in this band. Watch some live shows
Definitely time to check out the drum play through - even complete non musical reactions to this are entertaining as ever, and you will love it. So don’t worry about us 😊
Think of the warrior as human who realizes he can't fight for the cause as good as he once did. Plus has to face youngins in his own ranks trying to knock him down. Hits you in any occupation once you hit your 40s, 50s... And it was where Tool was at when they wrote it. Coming to grips with their aging selves. Could they still knock it out of the park?
If you don't remember your history class, Ponce de Leon was a Spanish explorer in the early 1500's. He landed off what is now the St Augustine area of Florida. He was said to be in search of the "mystical" fountain of youth? And aren't we all still doing that in one way or another?
The lyrics can be applied to anyone's life stage or situation. But the narrative seems to be from the point of view of someone in the warrior class getting on in years. Whether it be military, boxing or some other form of fighting. In conversations with some older veterans I've picked up on a common theme: It's frustrating when people no longer view you as dangerous.
On not knowing drum nomenclature, do not worry. Just listen . and experience it. Give your raw thoughts. Your thoughts and opinions will be in line with The Army!
Also as a parent's point of view, guiding, teaching and protecting your children, the parent has to be a warrior. But as the children grow up and become independent , you as a parent become less consequential?
First couple of minutes there's no bass. Only guitar. And drums. Then the break, the bass comes in, and guitar fades away. Then the second break the guitar joins the bass ..
Funny thing is you overanalyzed this one. Invincible is one of their most straightforward songs: it's about them. They're getting old, they can't perform like they used to be able to, and longing to be youthful again (and knowing they never will.). ("Long in tooth and soul," "heavy shield down.") Getting more literal, Maynard especially can't scream and shout like he did in his youth. Danny in interviews noted they've had to change setlists because he needs easier songs between the hard ones.
Song is about getting old, losing your edge, feeling broken down as years get by, being a shell of yourself. Tool songs can be interpreted differently but main concept is getting old. Its a universal feeling, everyone nostalgias their youth. Thats why its so powerful.
The Tool Army scours through reaction channels constantly hunting for new recruits to welcome into our ranks.
fr
There is no lie in this statement. I usually start these guys at fear, innoculmn then go from there. Soother sounds in this album
This song is the definition of fine wine. It literally gets better the older you get. I promise, in your 30s and beyond this song will take on a whole new meaning.
i will be listening in the future :)
Crazy you brought up gojira. Tool and Gojira are easily my favorite bands. Unmatched creativity.
You are a cool person too. TOOL Army is just cool people. You sir are one of us.
appreciate you!
The huge delay is on the bass XD
That high pitched instrument effect around 11 minutes is actually the bass too. And the guitar is doing the rythm
I'm a retired Marine and combat vet, and this song GUTTED me the 1st time I heard it.
thank you for your service!
Yes, thank you for your service!
You’re a badass
Never forget that
Thank you for your service to this country

It's a warrior growing older trying to hang on to his youth.
It could also be about a band getting older competing against younger ones.
Same concept@@traceyclemons7800
This track hits me hard, as I grow older. As a father of 4, my top priority has always been to be a provider and it's what's always fueled me.

that's true, this song seems like its more about life itself than anything else. Cheers
Sohum, it's a pleasure to watch Tool along with you, too! Thank you for featuring Tool and Dimash on your channel - my two favorities! ❤
the guitar / synth that kicks in is actually the bass.
This song is the modern day equivalent of Pink Floyd's "Time"....
interesting comparison
if you really want to see how talented or/and skilled Danny Carey is, you have to see Pneuma concert drumcam, no drumming skills required, just watching the master at work
thats next up for me!
Maynard singing about Maynard the way I see it!

wow ive never heard the term polymeter before, thanks for sharing.
So to clarify, each instrument is playing two different time signatures?

maybe this song is meant as a battle cry 👀
@@Sohum its a battle for those of us in our 40s & 50s who just realized "Oh Shit, I'm getting Old"
I thought of Alexander the Great or Spartians the very first time I heard it. Samurai later on. In the end the song about you and me, I guess. 😊
One thing with Tool, if you hear some sound that you can’t identify, listen for what instrument is missing in the mix.

that will be my next tool react :)

Finding other people to nerd out about or to introduce new music to is hard. Video games too. Lol
right! trying to convince friends is a nightmare
You want drums?!?!.... Dany Carey Pneuma....will blow your fn mind. Best drummer today, top 10 of all time
that reaction will be going up soon, it was phenomenal

Ex marine, tree guy...been listening to tool since 98....this song makes me relive my prime,... in my mind
Sub'd for more Tool ! We need Sohum to do more Tool videos!! LOL
IM ON IT
You, good sir, are the ideal recipient for Neil's profound and insightful lyrics. I'm so excited for you to continue this journey through their music and philosophy. My life has greatly improved from their art. I wish the same for you.
Enjoy the ride!
Wow, thank you! Im excited as well, more to come
Another Masterpiece❤ I love this song so effing much. Danny said this is the hardest song to play live, from a technical aspect.
There's nothing better than experiencing Tool with your friends, and the amazing discussions that are created through their sonic and lyrical wizardry!!!
truly, its fun to get to share that marvel with people

17:29... one of my all-time favorite Tool guitar riffs. So damn good!
i love listening to that again
It wouldn’t provide value other than to watch you drool for about 8-15 minutes.
Think of the warrior as human who realizes he can't fight for the cause as good as he once did. Plus has to face youngins in his own ranks trying to knock him down. Hits you in any occupation once you hit your 40s, 50s... And it was where Tool was at when they wrote it. Coming to grips with their aging selves. Could they still knock it out of the park?
I like that interpretation, almost like a second coming of age... our impact on the world changes
If you don't remember your history class, Ponce de Leon was a Spanish explorer in the early 1500's. He landed off what is now the St Augustine area of Florida. He was said to be in search of the "mystical" fountain of youth? And aren't we all still doing that in one way or another?
yeah i looked it up towards the end of the reaction, i had the feeling it was about the fountain of youth. thanks for the confirmation
The lyrics can be applied to anyone's life stage or situation. But the narrative seems to be from the point of view of someone in the warrior class getting on in years. Whether it be military, boxing or some other form of fighting.
In conversations with some older veterans I've picked up on a common theme: It's frustrating when people no longer view you as dangerous.
right that makes sense to me, its a core part of a warrior's identity and to be respected/acknowledged for that power
Great reaction --- the solo in the middle is Justin on bass :)
You should check out the Modern Drummer breakdown of basically Danny's #entire rig
10:50 btw thats the base not the guitar :)
The guitar and electric drum at the beginning is 7 against 3 .
This is by far my favorite off of Fear Inoculum
i think pneuma so far has been mine
On not knowing drum nomenclature, do not worry. Just listen . and experience it. Give your raw thoughts. Your thoughts and opinions will be in line with The Army!
Wait till you hear lost keys/Rosetta stoned or third eye
Caligula was a Roman emperor.
i love your username haha
I think the percussion at the beginning is a Kalimba or Danny has a pad that does that sound
Spiral out, keep going 🌀 🌀 🌀
I've been a toolthusiast for 31 years lol. And a nice weirdo.
Chuggity chug chug chuggity chug chug chug 🤘😝🤘
Chug indeed 🤣
Well i would listen to Tool with you as well.
I'm definitely going to be "halfening" many things now😊
Also as a parent's point of view, guiding, teaching and protecting your children, the parent has to be a warrior. But as the children grow up and become independent , you as a parent become less consequential?
that sounds plausible!
🤘🏻🌀
Hey man, we can be weird AND cool too, ya know!
weirds unite!!
First couple of minutes there's no bass. Only guitar. And drums. Then the break, the bass comes in, and guitar fades away. Then the second break the guitar joins the bass ..
Do the drum cam
I thought you were wearing a bear onsie in thumbnail.
P.s. the song is about getting old.
Space metal
I’m a Tool fan, and I’m weird.
Not guitar or synth... Justin on bass. Same with the solo
See my guitar rotted ears assume guitar 😭
so many fake reactions out there .
its great to see artistic and smart appreciation of music .
faking reactions is cringe. Appreciate your kind comment
Can’t believe you wasted nine videos reacting to TOOL.
Funny thing is you overanalyzed this one. Invincible is one of their most straightforward songs: it's about them. They're getting old, they can't perform like they used to be able to, and longing to be youthful again (and knowing they never will.). ("Long in tooth and soul," "heavy shield down.")
