Got into Tool the last 5 years. The Tool fans have mostly been the chilliest Millennials and Gen X’ers I’ve ever met. Maybe online Tool fans 10-20 years ago were a different story 🤷🏻♂️
No way Finn said Dig Up Her Bones was bad. Saturday Night, Helena, Graves made some of the best songs in Misfits discog. His voice is honestly unbelievable.
I always chuckle at the, "Here's the thing!" meme you created. I love it so much that when I'm watching other people on here or even in my conversations irl, I hear it in my head. 😂🖤 *Edited to add- Aww, Finn, I'm so glad to hear that we're good friends!! I already thought so, so it's awesome to have it confirmed. Love ya buddy! 💓
@@GanMic yea. I just think the 2nd channel is more authentic and entertaining. The videos on the MBA seem like they've been 'phoned in' for the last couple of years.
Nah, it's a quality issue. All bacon is not created equally. Go buy some bacon from a good butcher shop, then go buy the cheapest bacon from Wal-Mart. Cook them, and the see the difference. Cheap bacon is greasy, soft, and shrinks to be tiny.
@@jeremyweems4916 okay… don’t buy cheap bacon? Pretty sure that’s common sense lol also if your bacon is shrinking because you got the cheap shit that means it’s probably burnt (not soggy) so I’m not sure how that relates to my original comment lol
I think the progression of tool. From their heavy earlier stuff showing how they like to bring in breakdown moments, they defined their style by letting their music breathe...
@@jonathanmarose9685 I disagree …Beneath The Remains is Sepultura at their best …the title track, Inner self, stronger than hate, and mass hypnosis are just banger after banger
1. I'm excited to be best friends with Punk Rock MBA 2. He does hurt my feelings when he calls me the P word though. Confirmed Machine Head and Michael Graves era Misfits fan 3. As someone who grew up in Cincy I can confirm everyone is sick of me talking about Skyline and Larozas lol
I get people hating Tool because of their fans. I stayed away from the fanbase because I don't think of myself as some type of genius for listening to them. I just think the music sounds really interesting, I love the vocals, and I enjoy the aethestic.
The whole "Tool fan base" thing... the thing is, I think any fanatical fanbase is annoying... lately i've been on a Daft Punk bender and I honestly think Daft Punk fans are the absolute worst, they're completely unhinged and delusional.
My hot take: Tool haters talk about Tool more than Tool fans do. Tool fans haven't been obnoxious since 2019 AT THE LATEST, now every single time I hear about Tool it's from the haters talking shit about their fans and making the same Fibonacci joke every two seconds.
I agree with you, my close personal friend, that Danzig era Misfits is some of the greatest music ever recorded, but I did also enjoy Graves era Misfits. And I am a certified Machinehead not-enjoyer.
Hey Finn do you like Mortician at all? I got their album when the track with the "When there's no more room in hell, the death will walk the earth" sample at the beginning and have always found real joy listening to that band. They're not great, but for some reason they just do it for me. Over the top programmed drums, simple chug riffs and horror movie samples every 45 seconds haha, good stuff. Wondered if you dig them at all?
Your take on classic metal bands like kreator and Sepultura is absolutely spot on one of the only examples of recent times of an old band redoing some of their old shit that sounds just as good is Cavalera conspiracy redoing old Sepultura
Tool fan that loves Tool fans. Been to 20+ shows, met lifelong friends from all over the country. Bacon rules, always has, way before the internet, just like Tool
Here's my hot take since we're on the chili topic Chili is not a meal, chili is a topping. Eating chili as a meal is like eating tomato sauce by itself
It can be a good appetizer. Especially with cheese and sour cream on top and some tortilla chips for dipping. FYI tomato sauce is an ingredient in chili so yeah…
I also got the Opiate Ep when it first came out. It's still one of my favs. I agree with your comment that their later albums (the last 2) don't do it. All build up with no delivery of the "knockout punch" like the early albums.
11:51 No way , Graves did a great job on American Psycho that was as good as a Misfits album without Danzig could possibly get. I saw them live and it also was an amazing show. It started to suck but started great
07:38 Morrissound Studios really perfected that post-thrash/death sound. Sepultura records have WAYYY more bass (not bass guitar necessarily, just overall frequency response) than any Metallica/Slayer record. You can hear when the guitarists are hitting the strings harder or softer, even if playing un unison. If I'm listening to death metal I want it to FEEL like I'm in hell 😂
Journal - June 19, 2024. It fucking happened again. McKenty has an opinion I share, and it makes me feel gross. The production on Sepultura's Beneath The Remains, and Arise, IS what thrash should sound like.
Being such an avid watcher of all your content and listening to commensurate style of music it should be clear that I don't get invited to a lot of parties. But if I ever do, I'll be telling everyone about my super close homeboy Finn Mckentys second UA-cam channel
Speaking of Sepultura, Max and Igor (Cavalera Conspiracy) rerecording the early albums has been awesome. Morbid Visions, Bestial Devastation, and Schizophrenia still hold that old raw sound but just cleaned up a bit and mastered in a way you can hear it all. They really kept the soul of those albums. It really shows you can record something with todays tech and keep the sound of a late 80's underground release.
I am a casual TOOL enjoyer, I listen to Opiate and Fear Innoculum only and have yet to actually dive into the other albums (though I have heard many of their most famous songs) I'm sure that the hardcore fans probably consider these blasphemous statements and im okay with that
Not sure if I'm "hardcore" or not, But I've been listening to them since I was 12 back in 2001. Not blasphemous. It's just interesting that you've heard only their first and last album. Isn't it interesting, though, hearing the evolution of their sound?
I don't know, Finn.... "Lateralus" is a pretty cool song.... I don't think that there are too many bands who could write and record something so splendid and epic.
I like Danzig era Misfits the best but some of the Graves songs are really good. They matured with their songwriting and wrote some interesting songs but it’s a whole different thing and I totally understand the blind shitting on Graves-era stuff so all good
One thing though that I think the Graves era had going for it that the Danzig era lacked were the intro tracks. But that's probably just because most or a handful of my favorite albums all have intros.
New plugins are making everything mix ready. Is that going to be bad for bedroom musicians who are trying to make metal aka thrash or something like it?
Hey Finn, love your videos, love the vibe you bring to the scene, I bet you are just soaking it up right now. Ever tried listening to music at faster or slower speeds? Like on desktop you can pick it up or down by 5% increments. I love VulgarDOP at 90% (it's incredible how DENSE their music is). Phones only do it by 25% increments though. Anyways, I figured you might like tool a lot more if you sped up their tracks; I know I haven't done it, and I enjoyed listening to their discog one time, but rarely went back (even after finding Lateralus as groundbreaking, and an Aenima relisten to have one sweet track - Eulogy?) Anyways, hope you try it out, really gives music a whole new vibe when you kick it up like the Ramones play it live.
That Sepultura album sith skull is my all time favorite metal record from old school. The skeletal (no pun intended) producttion , tight playing , writing all on point. Taking into account knowing how more cool they gonna get in the future makes it even more hard. This is like “Resrvoir Dogs” of Sepultura. Dont know how to explain it.
The thing about rawer production making the music sound more authentic and heavier is true, and clearly showcased in Sepulturas Morbid Visions and the recent re recordings. Id say the goldielocks zone between raw and great production is the classic Slayer Ric Rubim produced albums
I agree about the bacon. I don't eat meat now, but when I used to, I would say I couldn't give up meat because of chicken and bacon. One morning I had a cooked breakfast and there was some marinated mushrooms, which I was really enjoying and not interested in the bacon really at all. Gave up meat the next day
I'm no Tool fanboy necessarily, I think they're fine, they're good, but Finn...you're cruisin' for a bruisin' here brother. That's not from me, I'm just referring to their fanbase. You're one brave soul my man. lol
I’m a little late this time, apologies Finn. I think you’ve shared your opinion on misfits before, in a previous video and it’s really the only thing I disagree with you on. Graves era Misfits was iconic! However, when I saw the “Cincinnati chili” image, I immediately thought it was “makaronia me kima” which is essentially what you call “Greek spaghetti sauce” 😂 So there you have it, you earned your like once again ❤
I'm w/ ya on the production. To me, clean production makes bands sound 'samey'. So many bands have their own sound, but w/ perfect production it's often lost. Once reason I love ...And Justice for All (yes, Metallica stan here) is that it has VERY distinct production and I love its tone and sound. And I know Rick Rubin gets shit on for his production but I think he adds character to songs from like uber-compression or thin/reedy sounding stuff that makes songs more memorable or unique.
just a quick thank you for all the times you’ve said “this sounds like a local band” - i started a band recently and caught myself thinking that while we were sucking during practice lmfao
I kind of like the so so production on Opiate for some reason. I guess maybe it makes the evolving sound of Undertow “pop” even more maybe? Something about the grittiness that EP makes me really love it
Oh man, I agree 100% with the "it work best when they're barely holding it together" opinion. To me that's almost like listening to an improvisation, it feels so much more free and exciting. That's one of the reasons I love NOFX's Animal Liberation, the whole records is on the brink of disaster. That's what hardcore should be imo.
I may not agree with everything Finn says, but goddamn he knows how to get views with thumbnails like this. Man knows how to market! Also yes death metal, thrash, & punk sound best when the production is RAW!
I honestly do prefer this channel to the PRMBA channel. I get way more genuine laughs out of this content than I ever realized I would have when I subscribed to it.
there is a genre us musicians call .'production metal' where the songwriting,riffs are stock standard,(boring,re hashed ) but the production is really high end,this is the way of the world now,no point dissing them,it's industry standard now,peace,rock on.
Another fact about Adam Jones is that he likes pro wrestling. I saw him at a show. Also Igor and Sepultura were so poor when they first started out that Igor did not have a bass drum so he was tom heavy.
diy sound is what makes music feel authentic. its that rawness you don't get with the same drum triggers everyone is using. its why soundcloud rap blew up too imo.
Famous Monsters is really catchy, it's a fun record. Forbidden Zone, Scream, Saturday Night, Descending Angel, Fiend Club are really good imo. I can't really compare the Danzig and Graves era Misfits tbh, it's like 2 different bands.
went to a baconfest back in the day, was fun...i liked tool because they were different. i dig the psychadelic artwork and live performances production.
True enlightenment is realizing you can listen to Tool without interacting with the fanbase in any way shape or form
This comment needs to be pinned to the top.
That's what I've done since 1996 lol
Me with anything I enjoy.
True enjoyment comes from enjoying things without a fandom.
This has been me since I was a kid
@@benamisai-kham5892 I hear you but they are not all as bad as Tools. :)
The number of people who complain about annoying Tool fans is greater than the number of annoying Tool fans.
Nowhere near true
It certainly seems that way
As opposed to all of those "really cool fanbases" that we all appreciate and enjoy.
It's the same with people who cry about gatekeeping they are always 10 times worse than the people who do the supposed "gatekeeping"
As it should be
Love or hate Tool, they are objectively extremely talented musicians.

And yet for as much glazing as he gives the Danzig era of the misfits, he doesn't even like Danzig's solo stuff besides Dirty Black Summer 😭
I go back to Graves era more than the Danzig era to be honest haha.
i was loosing hope when finn said that, in glad theres likeminded people here 🙏🙏
Dig Up Her Bones is my favorite Misfits song
Both are great in their own respects, I think it’s hard to compare them because they sound so different from each other. That’s my opinion though.
Even tool fans think other fans are irritating.
I always chuckle at the, "Here's the thing!" meme you created. I love it so much that when I'm watching other people on here or even in my conversations irl, I hear it in my head. 😂🖤

You just hit the nail on the head.
this also describes how atheists think of themselves (at least the ones typically encountered online)

Famous monsters slaps idc, it's not the same misfits but who cares.
Amazing album start to finish. Saturday night is one of my faves
I will never tire of "here's the thing!"

I have no idea who the fanbase of tool is. I love tool, but I'm not weird about it
Yes, you are.
I think Graves is better then Danzig however I'm an autistic European who also loves power metal so what do I know
How to say you have never listened to/basically don't like Tool without actually saying it
07:38 Morrissound Studios really perfected that post-thrash/death sound.

Famous Monsters is really catchy, it's a fun record. Forbidden Zone, Scream, Saturday Night, Descending Angel, Fiend Club are really good imo. I can't really compare the Danzig and Graves era Misfits tbh, it's like 2 different bands.
Dude was definitely wrong about Deicide and Cannibal Corpse. Deicide still rips
hearing you talk about "would like to hear this but with good production" right after watching your "Rockism" video is just funny
went to a baconfest back in the day, was fun...i liked tool because they were different. i dig the psychadelic artwork and live performances production.
