I’ve been watching reactions to this song for two hours straight and am still getting chills to the music itself, let alone the reactions, and I’ve known this song for 20 years.
Hahah that hilarious. Because, like, it’s not a yes or no question but you’re saying Danny Carey says “yes” anyway because, like, I don’t know… he just can’t even process the question because he’s so good? Man that is hysterical, not to mention super original. Get this guy a Netflix special!
I’m a half black kid from Oakland ca but I spent my 20’s in South Lake Tahoe and my best friend up their showed me lateralus and the pot as my first tool songs, he did it because I can play 3 instruments and have a stem degree so he KNEW I would love them. I literally cried when he played them for me and now 6 years later I can’t live without them
They sucked me in at 17/18 back on their first tour in the early 90’s, I’m now 48 and they’re still my favorite band. If you haven’t seen them live, please go asap. It’ll give you a spiritual experience for your mind, body and soul that’ll leave you changed, forever.
@@teddy.d174 because this is tool we are talking about, when I first read your comment I got confused because I thought you meant that a 17/18 time signature sucked you in 😂
It never gets old bro. It’s always like our own first time. Blown away. Like everyone who understands the complexity of arrangements. It never disappoints.
Rage is deep…But Tool is on a completely different plane of existence (literally and figuratively), with their lyrics. Maynard is one of the most talented and meaningful songwriters in modern history.
@@blackwookiee91 LOL, Rage are propagandists who espouse communism on stage. They then get into their limos and learjets and fly to one of their many mansions.
Bradley Adkins They stand for actual true freedoms to people Why being an angry american who wishes better for their country and others is considered communist these days is beyond me Its okay to be ashamed and wanting more for your country and be a patriot at the same time
TOOL is the total package. Greatest band ever. Legendary drummer. Musicianship is top notch. TOOL never disappoints and they always go the distance. Best of the best
@@Fishy_XII No doubt sir, I totally agree. There was a lot more I thought about adding to that comment. But I was trying to keep it to the things they mentioned and made note of in the reaction. In hopes they would listen to more. Cuz I honestly feel bad for anyone who hasn't discovered how great TOOL is. .... The reason I check out and enjoy reaction videos to TOOL. For me is, witnessing someone discover and experience what I once did. Especially when it takes a few songs. Then they get it. I'm curious if people watch reactions to TOOL for same reason as me.
Fun fact: Adam Jones is a classically trained cellist and went to school with Tom Morello from rage against the machine, Tom Morello's mom was Adam's teacher. And Danny Carey's father was a musician in Big band music orchestra, hence why Danny plays so well, his father taught him.
Pneuma by TOOL is an absolutely masterpiece as well, they even have a LIVE drum cam video as well as showing off legendary drummer Danny Carey, it’s a drum cam but still a very good live mix which you guys will definitely appreciate but both versions are indescribable! Welcome to the 👽👽🔥TOOL ARMY🔥👽👽
Wow! Well worded, if that's a word. I like rages simplicity, but dang, the complexity of tool is out of this world. Sometimes my brain just can't handle it. Sweet is all I can say.
Maryland Station Music So the lead guitarist Adam Jones played in a high school band with Tom Morrello. They were room mates and the bands Rage and TOOL are all good friends to this day.
its so exciting to see musicians discover Tool's music for the first time. Its like every song is a gift being unwrapped. Enjoy, we will as well. The drummer is known to incorporate a lot of international rhythms in his music, including, African, latin, south american, and middle eastern.
Love that people are still discovering Tool, I've been a huge fan for well over 15years now. I'm still figuring out the meaning to some of the songs. Best experience was getting to see them In Amsterdam 2019. One of the greatest bands of our generation ✌
Best Tool reaction ever for a musician watching musician's listening to Tool first time!! Subbed for your Tool journey! You are so lucky to find this band... Peace from WA state!
The bass in this one is nasty AF! And their drummer, Danny Carey, is the best in the business! Take that deep dive into TOOL, guys. You won't regret it!
Lol you guys are about to be FLOODED with requests for Tool songs. 100% guaranteed. They've always been in my top 3 so I'm subscribing. It's always so fascinating to see a musicians take on this band. Great react guys. Keep it up.
Start at the beginning and listen in order and you'll hear and experience the growth of the band. Early TOOL is raw and angry. Present TOOL is Progressive Rocks gift. This is an ALBUM ORIENTED BAND and the Artwork and engineering is at the highest level. People miss out on the ALBUM experience. This band has backward messages, hidden tracks, 3D glasses and Artwork and Vinyl. Who does that. TOOL does that. 🔥
could not agree more!! not enough reactors go for the disco IN chronological order...it really does help tell the full story. Starting at Fear Inoculum and then jumping to Undertow can be pretty jarring. lol.
1. Lyrically, Tool is a top tier band, but honestly, you probably shouldn't even bother too much trying to figure it out or pay attention on the first listen. They can get pretty deep, and it's rare to catch it on the first time (especially on 46 & 2). I'd say this is the one band that you can actually read the lyrics and song meaning in advance and be just fine. The music is what really matters the most. 2. For reaction videos (ESPECIALLY with Tool), every time you pause the music, you should always rewind about 5-10 seconds when you restart. In this song/video, you completely lose the vibe each time you interrupt/pause and then restart.
Yeah I agree and I would suggest you Don't clap with the song either it's annoying to your listeners and disrespects the band, just listen and figure out time signatures after. Tool is a very cerebral band with deep meaning in their songs. You have to listen multiple times to really start figuring out all the mechanics in their songs.
@@shanemason4031 Yeah, the time signature obsession is always a little odd for me. Yes, Tool has odd time signatures, but if someone is paying attention to that then they are absolutely missing far more important things going on at that moment. To each their own, though.
LATERALUS is written in the FIBONACCI SEQUENCE. The GRUDGE is also a banger. Hell their entire discography is amazing. DEEP LYRICS, MUSICIANSHIP that's off the CHARTS, DYNAMIC RANGE, DIFFERENT TIME SIGNATURES. This band is my generations PINK FLOYD. IF PINK FLOYD and LED ZEPPELIN had a baby it would be TOOL.
20 years ago I was at a buddy's house. I was listening to Tool. My buddies dad was there and he was a fairly accomplished guitarist. He listened for a bit. All he could do was talk ish about Tool. "I could do that, thats so easy..." he tried for hours... He's been a HUGE Tool fan ever since.
Interesting that you say that. The name of their album Aenema can be roughly translated to mean "soul cleansing." It's a combination of 2 words; the Latin word "anima" meaning "soul" and enema meaning cleansing yourself through, well, ya know lol.
I luv you guys, I just hit the subscribe button my friends, like I said in my previous comment, I love to hear real musician's give their perspective on music, and to see there Cincere passion, when they talk about music. toll is a deep rabbit hole to venture down, but you 2 will enjoy the journey.
This was thoroughly enjoyable! I’ve just recently dived into Tool Reaction videos, and thought both these guys were great. There’s a certain joy in watching people discover Tool for the first time, and to see how their reactions are so similar to my own. Tool not only hypnotizes us with their incredible music, but they also unite us all with it. ♥️
It’s good that you mention the tribal sounding aspect in part of this song. Tool has several tracks where portions of them play through a very heavy, jungle-like tribal rhythmic beat that nobody else matches in rock music today.
Would love to see you continue your Tool journey. Definitely recommend reacting to the drum cam video for "Pneuma." I was lucky enough to see them in concert just before the pandemic started. Check out Right in Two, Lateralus, Parabol/Parabola.
This is one of the best reactions to this song I've listened, too! You guys understand this song on a level that 99% of other reactors don't get. Subscribed for sure! I'm going to check through your other reactions, but wanted to recommend based on how you broke down the rhythm that you will love Pneuma by Tool (specifically the Danny Carey drum video). The polyrhythms that you watch him play are absolutely insane.
Yes the tool army is here! Great video guys! And audio was cool! First time watcher but glad to see you enjoy it as we all do! Now turn it up and listen 1000 more X!!!
The ending regarding the mics, hahaha. You guys were great. Was too busy listening to Tool to realize your audio wasn't the crispiest. We love you guys anyway! haha
I am anticipating a new big Tool Journey right here. You guys will love their whole discography - as already said in other comments, Lateralus is a banger, necessarily WITH lyrics. Subscribed.
New to your channel but not new to Tool and I really enjoyed watching you both enjoy one of the best Prog Rock bands of all time. Happy to subscribe lads so keep em coming.
Just stumbled across you guys tonight. I'm 3 videos in. So far they've all been Tool reactions 🤷🏾♂️. Really interested in checking out your guys content. Great content.
Love seeing real musicians discover Tool. Great reaction and I'll look forward to more. Soak it in first, then dive deeper, you will keep discovering more lyrically, time signatures and insane playing!
I absolutely love the set up of all of this. Great authentic energy from you both. You break down the songs really well too. Very happy to subscribe to this. Thank you 🙏🏻
I was enjoying your video and had decided to subscribe but the pain in those no’s at the end caused me to hit the notification bell. That was hilarious and gut wrenching at the same time.
Tool is fricking awesome! "Forty Six & 2" is my favorite song. But "Sober" is another awesome song too! They have so many truly amazing songs. Maynard's voice just touches me deep in my soul. Just can't get enough!🌹
One of my favorite reactions you guys have done so far. I’m biased since they’re my favorite band, but I think one reason I really love this video is that you guys captured in real time your experience through the song’s journey perfectly. One of my favorite aspects of Tool songs is that each song is great and continuously building and adding layers to create a ‘journey’. You guys paused and provided commentary on that aspect perfectly. Nice job 👍
Don't usually subscribe to these reaction channels, but you guys clearly know your shit and are just a joy to watch! Loving the flappy hand kick pedaling too!
Tool is definitely next level. The creativity in this band is crazy. Listening to Tool in the dark is the closest I get to meditation. I love going along for the ride, and just get lot in it.
Gotta say, really love the analysis by you two gents. Fun personalities, insightful and in-depth coverage of not just the song but each instrument as a whole including the editing/mixing of the song. I can tell you guys are smart as hell and have a real appreciation for the music. Keep it up gents, 10/10 and subscribed!
I hope you guys enjoy more Tool. Their lyrics are incredibly deep but in a different way or subject than Rage is. You won't ever find a consistent head bob or beat, they change it up constantly. Listen to Pneuma, Laterauls, Push It, Right in Two, Schism. All Tool songs are incredible
Y’all should check out Tool song called “Vicarious”, off the the same album as this one. It’s some of my favorite drumming off any rock track ever. Like this but even more so.
14:42 “You’re gonna be angry with me...” thought he was gonna say something he didn’t like about the song, but then the silence.... and I just busted out laughing cuz I knew he was trolling his buddy and was gonna say it wasn’t recording. He didn’t even have to say it and you could see the defeat on his friends face 😂😂😂 I’ve done that while filming before; shit’s hilarious
the guitarist of TOOL (Adam Jones) and the guitarist of Rage Against The Machine (Tom Morello) were in a band together in high school called Electric Sheep; Also RATM have a song with MGK the singer of TOOL called Enemy, pure fire. Btw this is TOOL no way in hell they're gonna have 4/4 time sign. its prog. rock/metal
first playthroughs for tool songs, i would just go on the journey... then you can look at lyrics etc... but the first time.. just lie down and enjoy it!
Congratulations on your discovery! Enjoy the journey that is Tool. Keep in mind that they are basically their own genre. Throw any and all expectations out the door! Avoid the music videos and YES! Have lyrics handy!
Subbed for more Tool. They are on a different level. You will discover something new in each subsequent listen. Keep it up. It’s nice to live vicariously through other people listening to Tool for the first time.
I loved y'all's reaction! Please check out Pneuma from their 2019 latest album. Then immediately watch Danny's live drumcam during a concert performance of Pneuma...or watch the live one first, whichever 😊.
At 5:50 you are absolutely right about not being able to grab it all. There is alot to unpack in tool's music as well as maynard's lyrics. As a musician myself I also tend to focus on music before lyrics and typically take a few listens before I feel like I have full rounded analyisis of a song. Great video guys I look forwad to seeing more of your reactions!
Just go ahead and start from the first album, and listen to all of Tool. Every single song is worth spending some time with.... especially with this kind of focus. Agree that lyrics are key to seeing the whole picture being painted.
Everyone talks about Carrey's drumming but no ones talked about Justin's Bass playing its masterfully funky. To me it makes the song.
It’s like Les Claypool in a more subtle way. Two legends.
“Ganja for life” says Maynard.
Big YUP
Yep I’m like they’re talking about the drums and guitar but not a word about that absolutely funky bassline?
I know!!! Everyone Sleeps on Justin’s Playing! It’s beautiful and Sickening.
I’ve been watching reactions to this song for two hours straight and am still getting chills to the music itself, let alone the reactions, and I’ve known this song for 20 years.
I did the same when I first heard the Brass Against version in a coffeeshop in Amsterdam; it's sublime
Drums and bass are a package deal. They both are incredible and have amazing chemistry
W Tool
im doing the same thing rn
EXACTLY!!
“What time signature is this”
*Danny Carrey:* “Yes.”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just said this before seeing your comment.
😂funny
Hahah that hilarious. Because, like, it’s not a yes or no question but you’re saying Danny Carey says “yes” anyway because, like, I don’t know… he just can’t even process the question because he’s so good? Man that is hysterical, not to mention super original. Get this guy a Netflix special!
The best part is when he said that it was in 4/4 haha
I’m a half black kid from Oakland ca but I spent my 20’s in South Lake Tahoe and my best friend up their showed me lateralus and the pot as my first tool songs, he did it because I can play 3 instruments and have a stem degree so he KNEW I would love them. I literally cried when he played them for me and now 6 years later I can’t live without them
Nothing brings people together like music
I try to tear up every time I get into Lateralus. I can't help myself, it's just so powerful
They sucked me in at 17/18 back on their first tour in the early 90’s, I’m now 48 and they’re still my favorite band. If you haven’t seen them live, please go asap.
It’ll give you a spiritual experience for your mind, body and soul that’ll leave you changed, forever.
love to hear it
I just recently discovered them 2-3 months ago and i’m obsessed
@@teddy.d174 because this is tool we are talking about, when I first read your comment I got confused because I thought you meant that a 17/18 time signature sucked you in 😂
Man watching people discover Tool is a thing of beauty 😂
It never gets old bro. It’s always like our own first time. Blown away. Like everyone who understands the complexity of arrangements. It never disappoints.
And everytime you listen to Tool.
.you get an another jolt of brilliance
i fucking love it
So right! 😂😂😂
I avtively search for this exact thing. It is beautiful.
Rage is deep…But Tool is on a completely different plane of existence (literally and figuratively), with their lyrics.
Maynard is one of the most talented and meaningful songwriters in modern history.
Rage is only “deep” to 15 year old communist LARPers
Rage are teachers. Tool are shamans. Equally valuable, but on different levels.
@@blackwookiee91 LOL, Rage are propagandists who espouse communism on stage. They then get into their limos and learjets and fly to one of their many mansions.
@@billrhodes5603 You're not wrong. Communists to the core.
Bradley Adkins
They stand for actual true freedoms to people
Why being an angry american who wishes better for their country and others is considered communist these days is beyond me
Its okay to be ashamed and wanting more for your country and be a patriot at the same time
Tool is a once in a generation type band, absolutely unique and innovative and a genre unto themselves. Every song in their discography is phenomenal
well said
Like led zeppelin
When I try to describe their sound, I say they are the Pink Floyd of the 90s. Tool is just hard to describe to people. They just need to hear them.
@@epicmage82 it's if you've been asked to describe what a banana taste like to someone who never tasted one.
@@epicmage82 Their 2019 album 'Fear Inoculum' was incredibly prophetic. I have 2 bands I am obsessed with. Pink Floyd and Tool 🤘👽🤘
The pot is like the tool gateway song for a lot of people. One of thier simpler tracks but still gives a good sense of their style
Maryland Station Music
This band is like a drug to the TOOL ARMY. Don't be surprised when they show up in droves and blow up your subscriptions.
RICHARD FUCKING W! THE GOAT
Yea DONT get us started. Your channel will blow up.
"This band is like a drug to the TOOL ARMY" ... so what you're saying is fans of Tool really like Tool?
Thank you richard from Pakistan
‘What time signature is this?’ All of them, love. All of them.
TOOL is the total package. Greatest band ever. Legendary drummer. Musicianship is top notch. TOOL never disappoints and they always go the distance. Best of the best
Well said brotha!
I would say Justin Chancellor is legendary as well my man
Danny Carey is one of the few who are up there with Neil peart. He's such a talented drummer.
100% my brother, they should definitely delve deeper. Maybe lateralus would be a great follow up

These guys will freak out at Danny's Drum cam of Pneuma!
Highly recommend this live drum cam video to watch.
The bassline of pneuma is also a swirling mass of signature changes. Love it!
I agree, that video is a must watch
Rage Against the Machine are masters of simplicity, where as Tool are masters of complexity. Both have their distinct sounds which makes them great. 🤘
Yes! Both bands are legendary no need to compare
Wow! Well worded, if that's a word. I like rages simplicity, but dang, the complexity of tool is out of this world. Sometimes my brain just can't handle it. Sweet is all I can say.
Well said. I agree with that.
I almost want to say Meshuggah...but Tool's complexity is not so numbing so I'd have to agree.
I hate Rage ngl
Maryland Station Music
So the lead guitarist Adam Jones played in a high school band with Tom Morrello. They were room mates and the bands Rage and TOOL are all good friends to this day.
Maynard also has a bit part in a RAtM song.
And so is the TOOL army and Rage army. Possibly System of a Down army too. 🤔
I saw both of these bands at the same show about 20 something years ago.
Tom telling the story about their band in high school is hilarious.

“This is superhero music.”
The best description of Tool I’ve ever heard.

Tool army, checking in. Freaking awesome reaction boys 👍
You haven't heard it all until you've heard Tool. They have the most complicated arrangements and intense lyrics of nearly any band out there.
Love that people are still discovering Tool, I've been a huge fan for well over 15years now. I'm still figuring out the meaning to some of the songs. Best experience was getting to see them In Amsterdam 2019. One of the greatest bands of our generation ✌
They are coming again next year, cant wait!
“What time signature is this?”
All of them.
Best Tool reaction ever for a musician watching musician's listening to Tool first time!! Subbed for your Tool journey! You are so lucky to find this band... Peace from WA state!

The bass in this one is nasty AF! And their drummer, Danny Carey, is the best in the business! Take that deep dive into TOOL, guys. You won't regret it!

thanks David S 🙏🏾
Agreed
I thought the same thing and did the same thing!
The candidness of the last bit, willing to keep in the fact that you didn't have the mic recording, just made me a subscriber.
Right in Two, Jambi, 7empest, 46 & 2, Lateralus, The Grudge are but a few of their great songs. You can't go wrong with this legendary band.
I must add Ticks and Leaches and Rosetta Stoned.
Third Eye, Pushit, Vicarious, Schism
Parabola also.
SCHISM, SOBER have to be on that list
Dude the ending was so funny and I'm so glad you posted it anyway. The guy in the black jackets reaction.. lmfao

Tool is fricking awesome! "Forty Six & 2" is my favorite song. But "Sober" is another awesome song too! They have so many truly amazing songs. Maynard's voice just touches me deep in my soul. Just can't get enough!🌹
One of my favorite reactions you guys have done so far. I’m biased since they’re my favorite band, but I think one reason I really love this video is that you guys captured in real time your experience through the song’s journey perfectly. One of my favorite aspects of Tool songs is that each song is great and continuously building and adding layers to create a ‘journey’. You guys paused and provided commentary on that aspect perfectly. Nice job 👍
Great reaction. Going down the rabbit hole of Tool. They are phenomenal musicians.
Don't usually subscribe to these reaction channels, but you guys clearly know your shit and are just a joy to watch! Loving the flappy hand kick pedaling too!
Tool is definitely next level. The creativity in this band is crazy. Listening to Tool in the dark is the closest I get to meditation. I love going along for the ride, and just get lot in it.
Gotta say, really love the analysis by you two gents. Fun personalities, insightful and in-depth coverage of not just the song but each instrument as a whole including the editing/mixing of the song. I can tell you guys are smart as hell and have a real appreciation for the music. Keep it up gents, 10/10 and subscribed!
RATM is for the outside, Tool is for the inside 💖
Instant new fan. I can’t wait to watch your future reactions
I hope you guys enjoy more Tool. Their lyrics are incredibly deep but in a different way or subject than Rage is. You won't ever find a consistent head bob or beat, they change it up constantly. Listen to Pneuma, Laterauls, Push It, Right in Two, Schism. All Tool songs are incredible
They are all master musicians in this band. Incredible
Y’all should check out Tool song called “Vicarious”, off the the same album as this one. It’s some of my favorite drumming off any rock track ever. Like this but even more so.
enjoyed watching you guys opening your interests to music I enjoy.
14:42 “You’re gonna be angry with me...” thought he was gonna say something he didn’t like about the song, but then the silence.... and I just busted out laughing cuz I knew he was trolling his buddy and was gonna say it wasn’t recording. He didn’t even have to say it and you could see the defeat on his friends face 😂😂😂 I’ve done that while filming before; shit’s hilarious
One of the best reaction videos I have watched. Just the appreciation and enjoyment was worth the watch. Thanks guys.
This is actually one of the few Tool songs where Maynards voice is a little more up front in the mix lol
the guitarist of TOOL (Adam Jones) and the guitarist of Rage Against The Machine (Tom Morello) were in a band together in high school called Electric Sheep; Also RATM have a song with MGK the singer of TOOL called Enemy, pure fire.
Btw this is TOOL no way in hell they're gonna have 4/4 time sign. its prog. rock/metal
Great reaction guys! More TOOL please. 🙏🖤🤘
Subbed because I loved this reaction!! Please do more and welcome to the TOOL rabithole!
If you guys rock with TOOL after hearing this, y’all need to check out the Danny Carey DrumCam version of Pneuma. It will blow your mind no cap.
Bahaaaaaa TOOL Army here, that was such a fun reaction to watch, you guys are fantastic. I subscribed 💜✨
Your voice audio sounded totally fine , great reaction
It was a hell of a lot of fun to see you guys get schooled. Keep it up brothers. Peace and Love. :)
Great reaction fellas. You guys would go nuts for “Right in Two” from the same album. Enjoy the ride!
Gotta do Intension with it. That song is overlooked.
Got my sub, thanks for putting in work guys!
Thank you man, Glad you like the content, more on its way
TOOL is another level. Artists of the highest level.
I just found these guys! Damn, good reactions!
first playthroughs for tool songs, i would just go on the journey... then you can look at lyrics etc... but the first time.. just lie down and enjoy it!
Where can I hear these two legends music?
Congratulations on your discovery! Enjoy the journey that is Tool. Keep in mind that they are basically their own genre. Throw any and all expectations out the door! Avoid the music videos and YES! Have lyrics handy!
Subbed for more Tool. They are on a different level. You will discover something new in each subsequent listen. Keep it up. It’s nice to live vicariously through other people listening to Tool for the first time.
Keep the Tool coming! There is no other band like them.
"What time signature is this?"
Tool: "Yes"
Uncle acid pulled me out of the "I've heard everything " bubble. Been a tool guy for 30 years.
You are very correct with a “jungle beat”. The drummer has stated his drumming is based in African tribal music. Good call.
Lol....first minute had me lol. Subbed, my man.
I loved y'all's reaction! Please check out Pneuma from their 2019 latest album. Then immediately watch Danny's live drumcam during a concert performance of Pneuma...or watch the live one first, whichever 😊.
This is one of the best Tool reaction videos I've ever seen. I love watching people become Tool fans before my eyes
No lyric video for tool, audio only.. its already a lot to take in on 1st listen. lyrics can be looked at on 2nd go around
At 5:50 you are absolutely right about not being able to grab it all. There is alot to unpack in tool's music as well as maynard's lyrics. As a musician myself I also tend to focus on music before lyrics and typically take a few listens before I feel like I have full rounded analyisis of a song. Great video guys I look forwad to seeing more of your reactions!
Just go ahead and start from the first album, and listen to all of Tool. Every single song is worth spending some time with.... especially with this kind of focus. Agree that lyrics are key to seeing the whole picture being painted.
Beautiful react and instant sub. Bless you both on all your travels.
Danny Carey is widely considered as one of the best drummers of all time.
Not considered he is the Goat
@@michaelbarber7792 he’s top 5 for sure. Ginger Baker, Bonzo, Gene Crooper, Buddy Rich are all up there with him.
