#tool #7empest
Who else but Tool could remain silent for 14 years, then, drop an album of extremely progressive metal songs, averaging 11 minutes long a piece, and, have it debut at #1 on the charts, knocking Taylor Swift out of the top spot...
Let's face it. Wasn't really much of a competition, since it was a shitty year for music.
There was this beautiful moment that year where Tool, Korn, Slipknot, and Killswitch Engage all had albums debut in the top 20, and the mainstream was surprised. Rock ain't dead, but sometimes, it's good to remind the mainstream of that.
And they lost none of their potency too.
@@gnomeofwar YEARS*
Deftones
Adam Jones has referred to this song as the culmination of his life’s work, it took him decades of arranging and fine tuning. He considers it his Opus
Did he say this in an interview? Would love to check it out!
❤
I wouldn't doubt it. It shows a lifetime of devotion to a craft. It's peak creativity, not necessarily the peak technical skill of guitarist. He's a creative genius. Music should take you to another realm, this is beyond that.
I’m sorry bruh but his opus has to be Rosetta Stoned
@omnis1182 also a great track
7emptest is Adam Jones' crowning achievement. I'm generally enamored with Danny Carey's performance on just about anything (as you guys seem to be)....but this song is the Adam Jones show.
Maynard: "hey adam, its been 13 years, what you got for us?"
Adam: proceeds to play every riff ever in 7empest
As prog metal goes Adam's guitar playing is generally in the song and fairly subdued. I appreciate this normally, but sometimes it's great to see him take it out and whip it around. This song is really his showing everyone he could if he wanted to
@@brandonjames1606 aka "ya'll mfers musta forgot"...
@@brandonjames1606 idk bout that lol. In my mind he always was a beast. I think he brought to another level in song like "The Patient", "Parabola", "Third Eye", "Jambi" and many others
@@bernasouza8734 he absolutely is, that's not what I mean. I meant that he doesn't normally go into full solo mode like you'd see in a dream theater song and it doesn't normally fit Tool's music. In 7empist he goes nuts, song be dammed, and it's fun to see and it still works
I’m a new Tool fan. 58 year old Grandma and I can’t believe I’ve missed them all my life. Tool is preforming near me in Grand Rapids, MI 7empest is one of my favorite songs, excellent react!
I’m going to see them by myself in Grand Rapids due to my friend group not being as cool as me haha
I bought two tickets to see them in Miami. I hope I can find someone to go with me. I might have to go myself. Life of a tool fan
Legend!
Fellow Michigander going to see them in Detroit! Can’t wait!
@@MitchM240 I WAS THERE 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽 PHENOMENAL SHOW!!!
@@M3G4FR34K great show! I just don’t know what was up with the steel curtain in front of them for 3 songs.
Didn't realize Maynard invited you guys!! What an absolute honor and impression you made on the band.
I was wondering if I heard that right.
I'm late, what did Maynard do?
That doesn't sound like something Maynard would do......
@aaron zoma no. You're just plain wrong.
I knew I wasn't the only one who paid attention to that part!
Idk why but I find it sick af that Maynard specifically invited you guys out to a concert, I wouldn't have expected that out of him. That's cool as hell.
I just love how Adam redefines what a guitar solo can be. I never tire of his ~5 minute wander in the middle of this song.
He doesn't refine it. He just finally learned how to solo properly. He had to reach out to Kirk Hammett to get advice. Adam is a rhythm player, not a lead.
@@gimphandjeff Am not a musician, could barely add anything to a 4 count on drums when I played for a few years. But, whatever it is that Adam does, it is the most spacious, creative and psychedelic music I have ever heard - by far - at least IMO.
@@gimphandjefflol Kirk Hammet?? I believe you're talking out of your other hole.
In my opinion, you guys still haven’t done the best song on this album! Tool: Descending absolutely has to happen. It’s just an incredibly orchestrated song, amazing riffs, solos, and one of the best buildups I’ve ever heard. The climax when the gong hits is possibly my favorite moment in Tools history. And this is my favorite Tool song, not even just in this album. You guys gotta react to that one, I know it will blow your mind.
Agreed. Tempest is great, but it's far from the best song on this album
George has heard the song before. I believe he listened to it prior to their Invincible reaction.
I nearly cry every time haha
Completely agree. Descending may not only be the best song on the album but may be the best ever TOOL song.
One of my top Tool songs, too.
It is weird how many people find the record boring, there is so much there, so much detail, particularly in the drums. This is my favourite side of Tool.
Adam Jones is amazing and he played his ass off on this song. The way he layers in the distortion is amazing and doesn't do anything to take away from his skills as a player. I'm glad they gave him so much room to play around with on this track.
For sure, and not only on this song, but I feel like this is his best album individually, which is huge, considering he's always great.
Agreed I loved his work on the album overall especially with the way he handled Descending too.
I thought he played his ass off on this entire album!!....I love how loose and raw some of the solos are....
@@victorhsluiz I agree
Harry Mack just dropped Omegle bars 56 and it’s insane please check it out guys!!!!
Fear Inocolum is whole masterpiece ,but for myself the gem is Descending...u should give that song a try .
I thought they did, guess not. Descending is my fav off Fear. Amazing song.
Agreed!!!!!
The 2nd half as the sounds build and swell, sound like the musical equivalent of a storm. It really captures the feeling of being in the middle of an oncoming tempest. Really powerful feeling.
And classical yet modern.. almost all of the greatest classically composed pieces from mozzart, Beethoven, Brahms ECT... have a long crescendo in the final movement of the composition. The build.. release.. and then peaceful bliss. Like an orgasm.
Yeah the storm needs to be sixteen minutes for that very reason.
Harry Mack just dropped Omegle bars 56 and it’s insane please check it out guys!!!!
@@joshythehand2960 You clearly know nothing about classical music. Building long crescendos was not common at all in classical music until the 20th century, and even then it was a rarity, and certainly not in the final movements. Most all final movements in classical music were simply fast. If there were any slow-to-fast build/transitions it was usually in the first movement. Most typically the first and last movements were fast, the second movement was slow, and the third was either a dance or (by Beethoven's time) a fun/joke movement. There are a handful of exceptions, like the final movement to Mahler's 2nd symphony (written in the late 19th century) and Beethoven's 9th symphony, but they are indeed exceptions.
@@jonathanhenderson9422 wrong
At this point, you need to do Descending, it's probably the best song on the album and maybe one of Tool's best songs ever
I concur, sir.
im sorry but what does "concur" mean?
@@izanyzam5308 Ask Leonardo DiCaprio. He knows.
@@izanyzam5308 it means “I agree”.
Disposition/Reflection/Triad should be reacted to from the Lateralus album. Classic Tool composition!!!!
It's called the holy trinity for a reason
that combination of songs is their masterpiece from within their masterpiece album.
they arent ready
Tool took only 14 years to come up with a masterpiece of an album. 14 years is nothing when you compare that most bands wont be able to come up with something like this in their entire lifetime!
These guys are just epic. Period.
Hell, anymore it seems like a miracle for a band to last 14 years with the same lineup, let alone last 14 years at all.
Yes I didn't appreciate this album when it first came out. Two and a half years later, I have grown massively as a person after going through some hard life changes and maturing, which is what it took for me to be able to appreciate this work. it's my favorite album of theirs to date. All of their music has culminated into this. Listening to their work is like watching the life cycle of a human. Starting with their youthful, angry first albums, their spiritual and deep center, the excellence of an adult coming into his power, and now this. This phase is called mastery. Each of them displayed complete mastery on this album.
This song initially reminded me of a collage of all their albums put into one song. Also, Adam clearly got tired of not getting enough credit for being an amazing guitar player. He was once quoted about the delay for the new album saying, “it’s not good when it’s finished, it’s finished when it’s good”.
I've often thought that this track could have easily appeared on Undertow, it sounds like it's origins stem from that era
It's what this whole album sounds like. This and the the previous ones. Tool is an infinite loop of creativity.
@@shoebunkin yes, same here. Maybe it’s because I play guitar and I’ve managed to learn the majority of Adams’s riffs over the years. It’s almost as if they had pieces of unused tracks laying around and they managed to put them together seamlessly. The riff towards the end when they do another breakdown sounds a lot like The Patient. And obviously Pnuema has a ton of similarity to the breakdown in Schism.
I’ll never forget the amazement I felt when I first listened to Lateralus all the way through. This album didn’t wow me upon the first listen like that one did but has really grown on me since it’s release. Cheers
Y’all gotta do The Grudge. It encompasses everything that makes TOOL what they are. It’s an absolute masterpiece of rock music
Edit: They did the grudge on Patreon :)
@@TopSpeedKertus Aw shit lol
@@TopSpeedKertus what other tool songs did they do on patreon?
Wfm 1&2, lateralus, right in two.. list goes on
Yez…my favorite Tool song probably along with The Patient and Right in Two
To the patrons, I recommend getting the ball rolling in regards to voting on a reaction to “Disposition/Reflection/Triad” as it’s the ultimate landmark of a Tool head and I think these guys are now ready.
Reaction to the live version of “Pushit” off “Salival” is also criteria.
Cheers
YES!!!!! I fully agree with everything you said.
Their patreon is so worth it man consider getting it
Grudge, parabol/parabola, wings of marie 1,2. Actually they should react to everything, all the albums are really good!
@@vaanchitkundlia57 they did the grudge on patreon
@@brezz6759 time to get patreon!
Justin often gets overlooked but this is his best work. His bass playing on this album is pure genius.
This entire record is Justin Chancellor's magnum opus. Yes, Maynard, Danny, and Adam are amazing and continue to blow me away. But for me, especially in this song, Justin stands out more than ever.
I always felt that way about 10,000 Days but he shines on everything he's ever touched
Really? I always thought Lateralus was… Schism, Reflection, Disposition, The Grudge. His bass lines run those songs. I respect that you like this one from him though.
@@Ja-mbi - It's all gold, actually. And the songs you mentioned have some of the best bass lines in prog. But there's something special about what Justin is communicating to me on this record. Hard to explain. More like a quantum pulse right into my third eye :)
@@Physics_Dude I'm gonna have dive back into this album, you might be right. Many great bass players can be overlooked but, with the catalog tool has, one only overlooks at at one's own detriment.
I agree Justin is great on this track.
For what it is worth, this song won the Grammy for Best Metal Performance. The Grammy committee have little clue about the breath and depth of metal music in general, but in recent years they have at least been nominating actual metal bands for the metal category. And when one considers how pop oriented the charts are in general, having a 15-16 minute metal song win a Grammy, and an 85-minute album be no.1, one can’t really deny Tool’s crossover influence.
Agreed. Descending is the Tool song I hear the most. The last 4/5 minutes are unique.
I see fantasia lights when the 2nd part starts with the drums. Splashes of lights. That songs is the one for me.
@@fonzy721 glad to know im not alone. Unfortunately, i think ryan said that they've already listened the song and couldnt react to it.
It’s my favorite song on the album. Everyone always says Pneuma or 7empest. I don’t argue, those are amazing songs, there is just something special to me about Descending.
No fucking way, I’ve literally just started learning this on guitar.
Haven’t watched yet but I already know you’re going to love it🔥
@@mpmarques Nice!
Upload videos of you playing the guitar, no matter how cringe you think it is!
Good to see u here Drew u fuckin rock
@@Defensive_Wounds let him upload, we wanna see him playing this song. Don't be hater
Good luck! Its a journey I'm also on lol
This is one of the songs you can listen to 1000 times and still hear new things each time.
That middle section of the song that's all instrumental with the heavy groove and brilliant guitar solo, is just one of the most amazing musical experiences I can think of. Complete masterclass of guitar, bass, and drums.
PREACH!
What a FLEX! "Shoutout to Maynard for inviting us out ( To a concert ) !
When you mentioned wanting to sit and listen to this song alone, I was with you. I have a decent stereo system set up out in my shop, and there are a few spots that are the best to stand and listen for the best quality. I often find myself standing, listening, somewhat in a trance with what I am hearing. There is a spot in this song, at about the 18:30 mark in this video, that always brings me out of that trance. Danny brings in the ride cymbal, very lightly. It breaks the plane, and changes the groove just enough. It is just so fucking good, but I still find that it surprises me with every listen, due to that trance like state.
Thanks for this one guys. We really enjoyed it.
7empest's appeal for me is how it sits in the overall album. The rest of the album is deep and reflective, but at the end, 7empest comes in with a flash of anger similar to early Tool songs. Not as catchy or technical as their other tracks, but feels like a good ending to the album. For the record, I do not consider Mockingbeat to be a real song. I usually skip it altogether.
Ions flashbacks haha
I actually like Mockingbeat
C'mon man...Mockingbeat blows this outta the water!! 😂
@ghost mall For me it grew alot. Listen 3 and the 10+ times after were great for me
I like your comment, but I have to point out that this song is maybe the most technical one in the entire album. Even Adam Jones says that in interviews. He does his best effort in making a several-minutes solo in a 21/8 time signature (which is the time signature of the majority of the song, the intro is 5+5+5+6=21 too, as well as other riffs in the song). To me, it is catchy as hell too, at least more than Fear Inoculum, Descending of Culling Voices. Anyway, that is subjective, just wanted to point out what Adam said about the song.
My favorite from Fear Inoculum is by far Descending. I head that song first on Hell Fest before the record was released and it just blew my mind.
I would like to recommend “Pushit” by Tool. That’s my personal all time favorite Tool song. The lyrics are heavy and the final breakdown is one of Tool’s best moments (specifically MJK’s vocal composition).
Through the solo part, Justin and Danny's setting is like a steam engine, pulling a heavy load up an incline, but never stopping. It's always there in the background, but never intrusive as Adam shows his stuff.
Spot on with shouting out Adam Jones, this is his masterpiece
What makes this song so incredible is the time signatures. It’s almost 21/16 but done as triplets, so it’s 7/4, hence the reason for the 7 in the title. Adam Jones literally was like, this album is gonna feature what I can do, the. Slapped everyone in the face with “7empest” and everyone wanted more. You guys say it may have gone on longer than it should have, but that’s the reason it’s the last song on the album. This song wasn’t meant to be a single. This song was a “jam” style song that turned into a masterpiece.
Jambi Jambi Jambi
7empest sounds like Jambi in so many places.. yeah nothing beats Jambi
This songs is Chewie's moment to shine! His riffs are madhouse!
Right in Two is probably your best bet for the next one based on how you prefer your dose of Tool haha. That or Vicarious or Jambi.
Super agree! Feels like the fanbase skips over 10.000 days when recommending songs, but they are perfect for the lost in vegas boys
I've been requesting more from the 10,000 Days album for a while now. They've only reacted to one song from that album, The Pot. Vicarious and Jambi would blow their minds and Wings for Marie 1 and 2 and Right In Two are great songs that would transition them to the other side of Tool
Its crazy they didnt react to Jambi to this day!
Right with ya. I’ve been anxious for them to react to Vicarious most of all. Many Tool purists think of that song as sounding too conventional/mainstream, but for me it’s just a perfect Tool song that kicks so much ass and has everything they do well without getting too prog/experimental. Just the lyrics alone is a trip.
Vicarious. Vicarious. VICARIOUS!
I really liked the part where all the instruments were being played extremely well, and then Maynard came in and sang some stuff that made me think.
Yea this is probably the songiest song out of their songs
Thank you for your input Jimmy Dean. 👍
@@damiankirkwood7924 lol well, it IS pretty song-y, I must admit. Musical, even.
@@JungleJuiceJoey You're very welcome. I'm good for nothing, if not my valuable in-depth breakdowns and analysis. :-)
Yeah, they should really consider making some other songs like that.
You guys got me into Tool. What I noticed with Tool is the more I listen to them the better they get
Imagine what it's like for those of us listening since the 90s 😅 it's been getting better with each listen the whole time! You can see why people are such super fans. Welcome to yhe club!
Welcome to the tool army my friend
Truth.
They won a Grammy for this song. Best metal performance.
I just love how Justin drops a note at 23:30, to drag you in,then again at 23:34 to capture you. I can see you’re body movements moving at the same exact time and how it can effect one’s emotions. So good. Good job guys. Tool is phenomenal. 1/22/22 LFG.
The angry growl of his bass tone on this song is just incredible. He always cuts through the mix, but *especially* on this one.
This song is the epitome of a "build up." Man, I'm still hearing stuff in this song (all they're songs) that I'm barely noticing. To put it simple, They're amazing!
Thats how tool works. I remember listening to the lateralus album and just not getting it. Then there is one or two parts that stick in your head and you go back and listen again. 20 years later and i can still listen to that album and find something new to hear. Its so cool to listen to a band that way, as opposed to loving every song and being sick of them in 6 months
This song was a slow burn for me. When I first started listening to fear inoculum I didn’t really pay this song much attention. I was really into songs like invincible and descending. Now, this has become one of my favorites. Great job as always, guys!
Same here. Took a while for me to notice this song. Now ot stands with the resf if not better.
Yeah, I've watched you guys for two years now and I'm telling you "Descending" will end up being your absolute, hands down, no BS, favorite. Money. Bet on it.
This became one of my top 5 favorite tool songs. Took a few listens, but it blows me the fuck away
I hope Tool makes another album. I listen to them every single day. There are only 2 bands this creative, dynamic, thoughtful, and complete masters altogether with what they produce: Rush and Tool.
You guys should listen to more Rush. Good ones are:
Analog Kid
Manhattan Project
Jacob’s Ladder
Subdivisions
Cygnus X-1, Book II: Hemispheres Freewill
Fly By Night
Vital Signs
Anthem
and so many more!
You forgot Between The Buried and Me. They are fuckin legends at what they do.
@@davidscates1300 I also forgot Chemistry, Caravan, and basically EVERYTHING from Clockwork Angels and 2112
@@loganrosepiler2005 all good, sorry I just had to chime in haha.
@@davidscates1300 I could list any Rush song and any Tool song (real Tool song) but I tried giving them ones they would maybe like the most. You’re good I’m happy I found someone else that likes Rush.
@@loganrosepiler2005 I think that you think he was listing another Rush song, when he was listing another band
The next targets: Ticks & Leeches, Pushit (both Aenima and Salival), Third Eye, Rosetta Stoned, Parabol/Parabola.
I'm DYING that there are people who heard "I dunno if this needed to be 16 minutes" and still recommended Disposition and Reflection, though.
I think the reason that Tool songs don't always "grab" you right off, is that they're so complicated and unique. You tend to look for a "groove" or catchy beat, and you won't find that until you listen a few times and figure out their intelligent pattern. After that, your mind is blown!
I think it is really cool that Maynard invited you to a show.
Its so ironic that (after many listens) i personally have found that "moment" to be the mellow part near the end of the song. Suddenly the entire band gets vulnerable. If feels like the rest of the masterful metal soundtrack surrounds it like an ornate outer shell, meanwhile whilst expecting a "Grudge" like payoff it ends up being this beautiful, softer melody that moved me the most.
Hats off to Tool.
The absolute love affair between Danny and Adam while Justin is just keeping the bass riff going. Tight.
Yayyyyyyy! Moar Tool!! I was literally *just* watching some of your other Tool reactions like an hour ago! One of the things i love about this song is how the opening notes sound like the patter of rain.
This is the song on this album that sounds the most like a throwback to Undertow.
Exactly!!
That's because the main riffs were written by Adam during the Opiate/Undertow era! Justin talked about it in an interview.
I was fortunate enough to hear this song in Spokane, Washington. The US debut and it completely blew my mind.
Not sure if many people have mentioned how much thought went into even the new logo for this album. If you fold the TOOL design in half it makes a hypodermic needle. Hence Fear Inoculum. And also, how eerie is it that this album came out pre-pandemic, time travelers? 👽
It's even weirder when Little Orphan Annie sang "The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow" and it DID! Whoa, she must have psychic time travel abilities because it's impossible to predict things just by paying attention to historical patterns repeating themselves. Yup *tokes blunt* must be psychic illuminati *hits bong* totally... wait what were you saying I'm so high I stopped paying attention. Whoa dude!
I left a comment about Fear Inoculum coming out right before c-vid on another reaction video. Some lyrics here in 7empest, makes ya think.
The definition of an inoculum is a substance introduced into the body to create or increase the body's resistance or immunity to a disease.
Holy crap you guys got Tempest!! You guys rule. Happy fucking new year to all of us.
The perfect track for a 15 minute high intensity workout! Warm up and cool down included!
There really is no greater joy than watching you two discover, emote and discuss so intelligently what you’re experiencing… but NOTHING beats your reaction/reviews of Tool.
Adam Jones goes absolutely off……… a masterpiece
Fear Inoculum took several listens as an album to fully “bake in” for me. As a long term Tool fan, I want everything to be Undertow, Opiate, and Aenima at first. Things change, and that’s life but it’s easier to accept when there’s a nugget of the familiar thrown in. 7empest is Tool at their roots. This song was the tip
of the spear for me. After taking this in, the rest of the album followed right in. You guys get it…Tool is always on point!
Another another thing, I grew up pretty hood and I never saw black dudes rocking out to rock music lol. Not one of my boys was into it. I wasn't either at the time. All we listened to was rap and hip hop. So for these guys to move their bodies back and forth and vibe as hard as they are to this song, it made me appreciate it even more. It actually gave me the chills. I was feeling what they were feeling even though I've heard this song many times. Very cool moment.
When I first heard 7empest, I spent most of the track trying to figure out which past album each riff sounded like it belonged to. I still get a lot of Undertow and 10,000 Days vibes from this. Also, can confirm it sounds f***ing epic to listen to during a storm.
I've often thought that this track could have easily appeared on Undertow, it sounds like it's origins stem from that era
That breakdown at 21:32....it's simply magic, never gets old.
Guys - been following you for years...love your energy, positive attitude, and open-minded fair review of all music and all genres! Your willingness and openness to like metal, prog rock, classic rock and more is super impressive. Makes me be open minded too! As a headbanger though, please keep picking bands like this!! I would love for you guys to try out a few other metal gems...Korn, Slipknot , and even an obscure industrial metal band from the 90's called Prong. Unbelievable riffs for jamming or working out to. Regardless, love, love, love you guys...keep it coming boys!
Gotta get that Patreon mah dude, they reacted to Prong - "Whose Fist Is This Anyway?"
They've reacted to all those bands you listed
Oh my god, I've been waiting for this day for 3 years. Stoked to watch this!
This album plus 4 grams of mushrooms was absolutely life changing. You can FEEL the waves in this
First listen on this album for me I dropped 7gs golden teacher. Talk about spiraling out 🌀🌀🌀
Yup and camp way out in the desert. Do it every month on the navajo rez.
@@efjefe sounds like my sort of camping trip
The ending part of 7empest where Maynard says “control you delusions” has stuck with me for a long time. Goosebumps every time! To me, that’s the climax of the song. It brought the layers together and it HIT with such dynamic energy. It stands out from other builds from tool, but Adam Jones did an amazing job building up to that moment!
I was against a 7empest reaction just because they’ve already reacted to half the album, but I have to say that it’s one of my 2 favorite songs from that album. It is a masterpiece in my opinion.
The song, and a majority of the entire album is composed around a count of 7 beats in a meter. Tempest, is composed in the time signature of Seven. Meters of seven give the arrangement a “swirling” type of feel. A Tempest, Torrent, hurricane, a stasis. But Tempest is spelled with the number 7 replacing the T. The opening sequence with just Adam and Danny both playing separate meters of seven, or fourteen, or 21. Switching back and forth between themselves. It establishes that feel of a whirlpool, and this continues through the entirety of the song, it’s just amazing to me.
That’s amazing analysis and insight. Much appreciated
George- “I don’t know what I feel about these lyrics, I wasn’t really paying attention to them”
Also George- spends 5 minutes discussing the lyrics
"Hey Adam, you wanna do one solo, or five on 7empest"? Adam: "yes"
Tool is the peak of music 🎶
I love you 2 fellas so much! Constantly bringing the thunder!🤘🤘🤘 Best wishes to you and the patrons and all of your fans in 2022!
This is the FIRST reaction page I ever found or subscribed to just a few short years ago and the content is wonderful and your descriptions are so fan worthy accurate and passionate! Love you gentlemen!💜💜💜
I would love to see a “Second Listen” video for some of the songs that you say grew on you - would be cool to hear how your impressions have developed & what stands out now. Also would love to see you do “H.” by Tool. It’s super groove oriented, straight ahead (few, if any time signature changes), and just a beautiful poem in the lyrics.
My OH bought me tickets for their show in London for Christmas. I have always loved Tool but have never seen them live (missed out two times in the 1990’s due unfortunate chains of events). To say I am excited is an understatement🤟
tool - the grudge would blow your minds. I hope you guys get around to every tool song in the future 🤘
I agree the grudge has to be done
Been listening to Tool since '95 and I have to agree that most songs I heard for the first time I enjoyed but didn't fully "get it". With time I realized that with each listen I loved those songs more and more...maybe because my soul wasn't ready to truly hear/feel them yet. You guys are great...thanks.
After the hype came down and I've listened to the songs many times over, 7empest ended up being my favorite song from that album. I feel it was a song made for flexing saying "we still got it."
I love your videos. You both dig deep and discuss all the dynamics in something so full like 7empest. Happy New Year LinV!!
I was one of those people that suggested this song first although even as a rabid tool fan, I took an odd approach to listening to this album in that I listened to it as reaction channels we’re listening so when they/you were reacting, so was I. When you guys did pneuma I hadn’t heard it yet myself. I don’t know how I held out from listening to much of this album as I did but it was fun as hell to enjoy with people like you guys for the first time together. I mean I started watching reaction channels because I love seeing first reactions to music I’ve known for some time. One song from this album that I’ve seen no one listen to… it’s all 100% Danny! Chocolate Chip Trip! Danny is a freaking monster!
Always love appreciating music along with you guys. You guys made a living from appreciating beautiful things. Nice. 🤘
Danny messed up twice toward the end of that video. He misses a beat completely laughs , gets distracted and then comes in a little late on one of the following bars and plays catch up for a second.
One thing most people miss - Shakespeare's "The Tempest" was his last play, and it's basically an allegory about Shakespeare deciding to retire from writing plays (A famous wizard giving up his magic to live a quiet peaceful life).
The opening riff is a callback to "Flood" from their first full-length album, and the song (and album) has many callbacks to their entire career in its entirety.
No one wants this to be Tool's "last" album, but it probably is (we might get one more EP to mirror Opiate, making the "book-end" complete). But if it is THE END, well good for them. If anyone deserves to rest on their laurels and enjoy old age out of the public eye, it's these four dudes.
The opening riff has been around since Opiate mate. Adam wrote it and never found a place to use it until this song came along.
producer: so how many riffs we put in this song?
adam: yes!
this song had to grow on me unlike every other song off this album. I love it now took a lil while though. Things will grab you from this song just need multi plays totally agree with both of your opinions.
I truly love how you guys react to songs. Thank you so much. From a white boy in Alberta, Canada, I consider you my soul brothers. You've really helped me understand the soul of music. It's been a great awakening. Bless you, brothers. Peace.
Deaf2radio sounds like a good idea. Definitely so many bands out there that need more recognition. How many bands have you found on UA-cam that you would have NEVER heard on typical radio
To add how you guys felt - it was very personal for me too.
Don't be put off too much about the length because they're literally taking us on a journey.
For me , I was able to align certain events in my past, traumas, etc. while they were playing, like they were leading me by my hand through it all.
It's probably one of the most powerful songs I've ever come across in terms of the pure emotional release it gives you - the build up, the climax and calm after a raging storm in the end as the skies break. At least that's my interpretation that works for me.
So glad you guys covered it - respect!
(and yeah, of course I cranked it!!)
I love tool just as much as all these die hard fans. Song is spectacular.
Reaction was great too, it’s cool to see your guys knowledge grow over the years when it comes to breaking down specifics and giving respectable opinions on this high level music. Is this tools best song? No. Is in still incredible? Of course.
One thing no one can deny is that tool always finds a way to come with something unique. That to me makes them above all.
How can one band have so many different types of songs? Superior level of talent and amazing patience/ pride in their ART.
I hope you 2 got your VIP Tool tickets for the Vegas show 1/22/22 🤘
It’s crazy how lyrically and conceptually this album warned us of what was coming a couple of months away with 2020…
I wonder if their consistent message of “question authority” will start rubbing certain people the wrong way in this day and age
I was thinking about this too, I believe true artists are tapped into the collective unconscious and can speak truths that are unbeknownst to them and unwittingly tell us things that have not yet come to pass.
Been thinking about this for months..
I thought the same thing. Innoculm = poke and the tool logo is a damn syringe
@@efjefe damn didn’t see the logo like that but you are right.
I'm having flashbacks here🤣your reaction for Pnuema was top tier
Fear Inoculum is an album of masterpieces, period.
Amen.
That's your opinion and to each their own. But to me it's their worst album and there's not one single good song in it.
@@MCHiphopotamus lol riiiiight
@@MCHiphopotamus You’re allowed to think that, too. (But you’re wrong.)
@@MCHiphopotamus Ha! Yes that is my opinion. You are very perceptive. …and as far as your reply (quoting you), “That’s you opinion and to each their own.”
24:43 into the song...... that smirk says it all.
Hidden Tool masterpiece-
“Divorced” is a Tool song hidden on a Melvins record, and it’s fucking incredible.
Listen to it
Definitely blew my mind first time i heard it
What do you mean? It sounds like TOOL or the boys sit in on it?
@@scottnunn7461 They collaborated on the song years ago. Give it a listen
@@scottnunn7461 it’s definitely Maynard Adam Jones and Justin Chancellor on vocals guitar and bass, either Danny Carey is doing the 2 drummer thing with Dale Crover or he wasn’t involved
So layered and complex. Beautiful.
if i would recommend any song it would be *Vicarious*
Btw, this is Adam's Opus. He'd been writing this song for about 15+ years before it came to fruition.
Tool - Disposition Reflection Triad is a must , favourite ,best and most underrated Tool song imo
Can’t wait for the day you guys finally finish the album “Dirt” by Alice in Chains. A full album reaction would be nice to see.
they did more songs from Dirt on the Patron page and they just did Bleed the Freak there
@Ronald williams they did an AIC "marathon" on the patreon page in 2021 but I stopped paying before I saw all the songs they did
Masters at thier craft. Tool has always been about feeling. An further experience. We are just lucky they found each other! I personally don't know the person I'd be without them as the soundtrack of my life 💯
