    I'm always hesitant when I see people reacting to Tool songs with the music videos. If it's your first listen it's distracting and takes attention away from the music. The videos, as amazing as they truly are, should really come after the first couple of listens. They can be a little much. *broken record noise*

    My take on the black ball.
    The black ball represents his dark/negative side, it starts small and he ignores it.
    As time passes it grows and like most ignored things it lashes out, killing the little guy.
    The guy shows anger at the ball and leaves trying to get away from it.
    As he walks through to woods the ball follows him, now representing his sins which he can't escape.
    At the end he stops running and accepts his sins/darkness/negative side which then triggers his evolution.
    Even the darkest part of you is still a part of you, rejecting it is rejecting your self, with out it you can never be whole.
    If you don't understand why you are the way you are then you are ruled by the way you are.
    Ask why, why am I this way, why do I want to do these things, why wont I do what I want to do.
    Only by knowing the why can you be the ruler instead of the ruled.

    By all means check out more Tool. Advice though, react to the audio. View the official video on a second private viewing. Adam’s artistic interpretations are worth viewing and he is talented with both his guitar and with his visual effects but, they can and do distract. The audio versions allow you to concentrate on the music. Just some advice.

      Weird right? It's not the meaning so much as the raw emotion.
      10,000 days. Obviously. I can't listen to that without crying like a baby after I lost my dad. He was a fan too. The song made him cry when he lost his mom. So it's torture for me now.

    Adam Jones the guitarist was offered a film scholarship but declined and chose to move to Los Angeles to study art and sculpture. His interest shifted to film, and he began to work as a sculptor and special effects designer, where he learned the stop motion camera techniques he would later apply in Tool's music videos, such as "Sober", "Prison Sex", "Stinkfist", "Ænema", "Schism", "Parabola", and "Vicarious". He graduated in 1987. After graduation, he went to work at Rick Lazzarini's Character Shop. During the next two years, he worked on the TV show Monsters. He designed and fabricated a Grim Reaper makeup and a zombie head on a spike (later used in Ghostbusters II) among others. After that, he went to Stan Winston's special effects workshop, where he worked on Predator 2, sculpting a unique-looking skull for the Predator's spaceship interior. Jones worked on several other films in Hollywood doing makeup and set design, including Jurassic Park, Batman Returns, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Dances with Wolves, and Ghostbusters II. He did the "Freddy Krueger in the womb" makeup for A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child, as well as worked for A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. Tool refused to be in their videos well before youtube even existed, so if you never saw them live you wouldn't be able to pick them out of a line up. This gave Adam the chance to use his art to protect Tool's image.

  • @pedromarques2077
    @pedromarques2077 2 роки тому +9

    So, a few things I'd like to say. First of all, if you're not familiar with Tool usually it's best to not see the official video clip on a first listen, since they can be quite distracting. All of Tool videos are directed and produced by Adam Jones, Tool's guitar player, since prior to Tool he used to work in Hollywood as a special effects artist and set designer and was involved in some really huge blockbusters, like Jurassic Park and Terminator 2. Also, I think you missed it, but the guy in the video it's actually Tricky (in case you don't know who he is it's one of the biggest names in the Trip-Hop scene and an original member of the Wild Bunch and Massive Attack).
    Tool is indeed a very complex band, both musically and lyrically, with extreme attention to every detail and usually everything you'll hear, read or see it's intentional. Hope you guys do a few more of them. My usual suggestion it's to start off from their earlier stuff and move forward. A lot of the internet Tool fans are from a younger generation and tend to just request their more recent stuff, but I think it's important to understand how they evolved in all aspects over time. But anyway, that's just my opinion and suggestion, feel free to do it however you like. Have fun in the meanwhile!

    Really appreciate you guys doing Tool. However, just a little pet peeve. With Tool you have to choose reacting to the song or the video. You can’t do both, they are both just too artistic. Do the song with a lyric video first. If you want to watch the video later cool. They are art in their own right.
