Adam Jones was once asked why he doesn’t move around much on stage. I don’t have a direct quote, but he was like “Eff off, I’m counting and calculating the whole time. This isn’t easy.”
I love that
Sounds about right. People who don’t play music have no idea how absolutely complex Tool songs are.
Never heard that....pretty hilarious
The riffs aren't too complex alone. But the guitar parts seem to be playing against the band if that makes sense.
@@Spinosaurus4ever it makes sense. The counting involved is ridiculous. Playing against polyrhythms and syncopation isn’t the easiest of tasks. Adam plays to create the mood and ambiance more than he does to show off unnecessary speed and solos. It’s his amazing ability to know what notes to play and why they need to be played.
Danny is like , I paid for the whole drum kit , im gonna play the WHOLE drum kit
So many Tool reactors are all like "sorry for how long this is, are you really going to listen to a 50 minute long back to back comparison of studio to live breakdown?"
Yes. Yes i am.
As a tool fan for 30 years, I will never forget hearing Pneuma for the first time. I was lying in bed with my headphones on about half way through I just started crying cause it was so beautiful. Then I got to see the debut of Pneuma live at Aftershock in 2019. That day was also the last day I ever had a sip of alcohol. Their music is powerful.
Same! I balled my eyes out. First Tool show was Seattle 92.
@@Ogt92 Hell yes man! I didn't get to first see them until the lateralus tour, but my first show was Seattle too! Key Arena. Damn near passed out during Parabola. Got 3rd row for the tacoma show next month!
I’m digging what you do. Keep it up. As many of us will tell you, it is a pure joy and pleasure to experience someone discover TOOL. Watching you freak the f out at the really good parts makes me smile. Spiral Out!
@@saltysirDitto!
❤ same here 🤚 Cried every time I saw it live too!
“It’s the most structured chaos I’ve ever seen!” That is absolutely the best way to describe it. His drumming is otherworldly.
theres a method to the madness
Just observing this from the physical athletic sense, his core has to be engaged the whole time to hold his torso in the exact place to allow his legs to reach the pedals precisely while at the same time his arms are reaching more than 180degrees around the front of him. Every appendage is moving in an independent rhythm and if you watch the repeat movements say with his left arm his shoulder, elbow, and wrist hits the same exact place in the screen you can mark the screen with an erasable marker and predict with certainty where the wrist will be as soon as that rhythmic piece comes back around, even though he had to move it from the shoulder to a completely different, yet precise place to access a different set of kit for the place in the rhythm between the two compared wrist placements...now do this for every song in a 2hr concert...with very little time between songs...because often the drummer also is engaged between songs with boom shots or other antics while the lead singer speaks to the croud...then look at all the flashing/strobing lights, lasers, etc and the fact that his kit has so many pieces that have to be within arms reach and how easy it would be to strike the wrong piece of kit due to how densly everything has to be placed...then think about the high school kid in drum line aspiring to become the next drummer at this level...
As a person who knows little to nothing about playing instruments I'm sitting on the edge of a mechanics stool trying to move my feet like he does while also swinging my arms about and keeping balance on my seat and can only do so for maybe 30 seconds before losing balance and it takes even less time for one of my appendages to say nope I'm out and just stop...then I become conscience of that arm or leg and while fixing that lose track of one of the other 3...on a side note I'm on my lunch break and my other mechanic coworkers have caught me in this act and are now going through the stages of wth is he doing, laughing as they realize it, then laughing at my completely uncoordinated attempt at air drums...lol...if you made it this far I apologize for the mini-novella but hope it at least gave you a laugh at the end...
@@grandsea2 lmao good read
Tool if you let then can god you
Structured chaos. Exactly!
Loving your reactions. One of the reasons Tool fans tend to love these videos is that we can never hear the songs again for the first time - so seeing you experience it is the next best thing.
Enjoy!
This is it exactly! Very well put.
@@Ruprecttt exactly. I get excited now when he has a new Tool review and I go right to it.
That's exactly it. We get to live at again vicariously. (Pun intented)
@@RealSundanceGarden 😂 haha
Exactly what I was going to say! Like women having children. You see it all again, through new eyes.
Tool is the future version of Pink Floyd. Flawless, perfect, clean, and raw and it has feeling. You do not find musicianship like this anymore
That's what I've always said. It's not that they copy PF by any means. Just means they're on another level like PF took that generation all those years ago. I usually get a strange look by people when I make that comment.
His name is Danny Carey and he's a master of polyrythms. Part of why he's known as "the octopus" is for using all limbs to create beautiful percusions, the other reason is he can keep at least 4 patterns going at one time, 5 if he drops his shorts :)
Tool is so big that they sell out arenas, Danny was a college basketball prospect but chose the music path instead, but as a huge NBA and college basketball fan whenever they o play an NBA arena he wears the jersey of that cities best...this night they were in Boston....they are truly the goat
Danny’s left hand begins to look like a humming bird’s wings when he enters tribal mode…
Danny is easily the greatest drummer alive... to be simultaneously playing up to 4 time signatures and to do it so FLAWLESSLY... LIVE!!! he may just be the greatest to ever live... I am so excited... I have been a fan of TooL for almost 30 years... and I finally get to see them live in October... I just wish I could have seen them on the Lateralus tour... I PRAY they play my favorite song Parabol/Parabola
HE is playing complicated Jazz heavy and in unity with the other 3 people on the stage. It is fascinating and elite.
Makes my fat ass tired watching him on one song. This dude is not human keeping it up for hours lol
I'm going to see them in October as well!
Bro, counting down the days to10/16 in Eugene Oregon!!! 12th row aisle center right.
@@stvwds61 Vancouver on the 23!! 9th row floor seat...
You are one of very few reactors I’ve seen do both the studio and live version of this track. You can’t fully appreciate what Danny does without seeing it, imo, and this drum cam perspective gives a unique look into Danny’s world. Great video. I think the entire Tool army would like a glimpse into the creation of many of Tools tracks. They’re just different.
I wish every music reactor did this!
I completely agree!
I know I would.
Danny from another dimension.....it's not just his pllaying that's so incredible, but the fact he actually writes these patterns. He's def one of the goat drummers all time. The Octopus perfectly describes hiim. If you haven't react to Crawl Away....top 5 fave TOOL songs and still hits me to this day like it did back in 93'. And if you wanna see Maynard in savage mode, watch the vid when he's onstage singing and some fan jumps up and goes towards Maynard, and being a BJJ practicioner, Maynard grabs the guy and tosses him over his shoulder, then puts him in a chokehold and finishes singing the song before he allowed security to get him. Legendary
My interpretation of “one foot nailed down” is that we are born with natural curiosity and wonder and a desire to soar to new heights and experiences; but we are bound by the limitations of our flesh and fears.
Bound by the responsibilities, real and perceived, that we take in and internalize. Most of these "responsibilities" are delusions and self-inflicted prisons of our ego that bind our potential. Fear of failing those responsibilities is part of the binding mechanism.
@MaryMonet so wonderfully stated, thank you!
Bro... I'm glad you decided to listen to the audio version first. The way the band intended for you to listen. You pick up on the smallest of details... Great attention to the polyrhythmic details.. welcome to the TOOL army. Hook, line and sinker.... You will never be the same...
Me too
Adam Jones told a story how they brought in drummers from other bands like SOAD AND Rage against the machine and they asked Adam if the drums were multiple tracks mixedand he said "nope that's just Danny playing." And they were like WTF, he's a f'n Alien. You can see the 4 different patterns and time signatures at the same time.
In the drum cam, he was playing with his feet, had one rhythm in his left hand and another one in the right! MIND BLOWN!!!
I remember that article. When other great drummers are scratching their heads not quite believing what they're hearing, then you know you're on a different level.
poly rythym GOD
I am belated that another member has joined our ever growing army. Welcome to Tool! Yes, it is an experience worth every dime and moment spent. I'm am curious if, after hearing and viewing them, did you happen to listen to more? Also, if I may, I would like to also point out that most of there stuff drives from a simple formula. Not only their lyrics, but their instrumentals have a fibonacchi sequence perfection towards life and all things spiritual and fundamental. This band has made me a better human and way more intelligent than I might have been without them. I can say that some music has left me dumber for listening, however, Tool has always left me feeling intelligent after listening. I hope that you continue to enjoy their music and delve further into their magic. Thank you for listening
I remember a drum teacher saying something along the lines of "Once you figure out the answer to what Danny is doing, he changes the question"
perfectly describes his mind-fuckery
Danny Carey is a top 5 drummer off all time in my opinion.
Someone probably already wrote this, but the 3 guys that compose the music spent a minimum of 5+ years composing and creating these masterpieces in the studio like a regular job. Danny recounts this in an interview from a few years back.
So, how they came up with it? LOTS of long, hard work that pays off when you are so musically talented and creative. I am just so thankful these guys got together and have stuck it out. The WORLD is thankful for their compositions. As an atheist I never pray, but if you told me to do that to get another album from them, I would in a heartbeat!!
Its worth noting that Maynar wasn't present during most of the writing of the music. He said he just added the vocals later. He was working on other projects while the band was making the music. A vocalist isn't really much help during the writing process of music like this. Its not like he could just tell the instrumentalists how to jam together, and he wouldn't know what to sing until the instrumentation is mostly ready.
"cant even say words" - because that shit is primal. You feel it because youre alive.
2:41 - Danny Carey's drumkit includes Synesthesia Mandala Drum pads, and because a Mandala surface is divided into 128 position rings and can detect 127 strike velocities (greater than 0) it can produce up to 16,256 (128 x 127) individual triggers. For this song he's using a lot of tabla sounds in the section that sounded like water droplets and the feeling of rain.
Magic. Got it
@@flexygoo1295I agree he's clearly some sort of wizard.
Yeah I think this is a cover for magic.
Only certain humans can perform this level of wizardry .
13:44 - "Pneuma" is both "breath" and "spirit." The breath of life, or vital essence. Good catch.
I could watch it again and again. It never hets ild watching someones brain explode discovering tool. Danny Carey is unmatched. The whole band is from another planet.
Dude, you are diving in to a post-doctoral piece of music with this one, go back to the beginning and follow the arc of TooL. You will not be disappointed.
For me Tool is like candy for the brain, the songs stimulate all the neurons
If you're getting emotional with Pneuma, get ready to be in your feelings with Descending from this album
If you want another great example of tribal drumming by Danny Carey you NEED to hear "Right in Two"
Danny went to school on a music scholarship. The man is actually a percussionist.
Tool is the only band that Im aware of that records all of the music and then they send it to Maynard to write the lyrics and record the vocals.
If you want to check out something on the opposite end of the spectrum from Tool, check out some of the earlier, angrier work. "Jerk Off" or "Bottom" would be my suggestions.
It's called limb independence. Every limb operates independently from the other three.
This song touches the soul, I kind of feel like they tapped into the vibration of the universe on this one. Glad you did both, and in that order.
Lateralus has that same feel. Something mystical about them and their ability to establish a connection while giving you an out of body experience. If you know, you know it's hard to explain.
You're an official Tool army member now. Now you know how we felt when we first experienced Tool
If DMT takes a musical form, it will be a tool's song.
"I forgot there was singing.."One of the best things about Tool is when you have those long breakdowns, you don't miss the singing.
21:12 - Attuning you for what is coming. Resonance when perceived through the senses is beauty, through the mind is truth, through the heart is love.
And don’t forget that Danny, aka The Octopus, is almost 60lbs old when this was recorded. He’s my favorite drummer. Tool Army!!!
I believe Danny was 59 yrs old on that tour.
Danny Carey just doing what he does best on them drums.
"im listening and as soon as i get used to a pattern they change it. I dont know if they do this on purpose"
They do. They absolutely do.
With one foot nailed down you keep going in circles when you try to move forward
Danny is almost 60 in this video. The guy's a beast!
throw a dart at any Tool song and you'll never be dissapointed
I haven't watched yet but already liked. 50 minutes is about average for Tool. 😂😂 Pneuma is from their most recent album and their sound has evolved so much. Someone else mentioned to go back to their earliest work, the raw and angry stuff is amazing as well.
I suggest JERK OFF
Should checkout tool eulogy. It's one of my favorites, also the instrumental is crazy
“He ain’t even turned up yet!?!?” Best thing ever. Lol.
“How did he know to do THAT? How did he come up with this?” Because Danny Carey is a god.
The entire discography is Maynards journey to Individuation.
Pneuma taps into the primal dna of our past. Especially that middle section. It brings you back tens of thousands of years and speaks directly to you and the ancestors. Given your ear and appreciation of their music, I'd say you're more than ready to listen to Disposition-Reflection-Triad off of Lateralus. They should be listened to together since they are really one continuous song broken into three parts.
"How does he come up with that?" Welcome to the fanclub my friend, that's part of why we are all here, cause we don't know how they come up with this stuff, it's what makes it magical.
just watching people get emotionally unlocked by music, worth every second
Everything happening in the beginning comes back in the song later in one way or another.
The bass player goes for hikes in the mountains and uses his natural foot steps as inspiration for a rhythmic guideline then brings it to Danny and then they start adding the layers.
Danny Carey is the GOAT. He makes intricate playing look completely effortless. Those sticks are just extensions of his body. Danny the Octopus!
It's my understanding that the drums are the heartbeat of every song.
When this came out, I watched it in my car (giant headphone set). I played it for a guy I work with on a lunch break who was a tool fan in his 50’s. He said after: “Now what do we do? I need a cigarette…”.
As much as Danny's playing seems to be amazing and complex (and it really is) to a regular ear, someone who might not be the expert in drumming or music notation, without the deep understanding of odd meters, polyrhythms and polymeters one doesn't even start to grasp the genial complexity of his drumming...and then ... how the complete band fits into this composition... true genius...
See his concentration is all on being this song. His dynamics are incredible.
21:20 People frequently cry when they see Great art....apparently happens when you hear it as well !
Several of their songs make me tear up, and have repeatedly, not this one for me, but 'Wings For Marie (Pt. 1,2)...that'll do it ! Lateralus, Reflection !
WELCOME TO THE OCTOPUSGON! Danny is king
45:10 - "The most structured chaos I've ever seen!"
Danny's posture and focus makes him not human.
Ticks and Leeches off of Lateralus is another great drumming masterpiece.
I see them three times in three decades. Eight time is the same. Prepare to be standing the whole time.
0:33 - As long as it takes! We are TOOL fans.. As long as it takes! :D
I can't listen to Tool for the first time again, but I love seeing people who listen to them for the first time and enjoy their reactions.
Beautiful!
Full album, Lateralus and 10,000 days
You will know why we all call it the spiral!
🤘😎🤘. 🛎️🛎️
BEST COMMENT EVER (wasn’t me)
“Legend has it that Danny made a deal with the devil. Nobody knows what Danny got but the devil got drum lessons”
I don’t know the name of the frigging genius that said that but… it’s perfect. I need that shit on a T-shirt.
It’s like Danny was a drummer in a dozen past lives, from all over the world… and we are blessed to witness the culmination of those lives in the Danny of today.
Much respect for doing both back to back. The TOOL army is here for all 50 minutes.
I was. Lol
After the little intro and he pulls his legs over like watch this. That and near the end when he backhands the symbol. He's just showing off. He knows he's the best living drummer.
This is the magic of Tool. They tap into elemental humanity.
With how much you seem to love the production quality and technical arrangement... you would love the song Invincible.
At this point I feel like I'm more obsessed with TOOL reactions than TOOL itself😅
Man, TOOL is touring right now. Go see them. No better time than right here, right now.
How lucky are we to witness a master of his craft on this level.
Caught you headbanging!! You're becoming a rocker, your hair is long enough for it, embrace the change 🤘🤘🤘
I never realized how talented and amazing Danny is. I've always been a true Neil Peart fan and still am. Danny is of that caliber. In my heart no one is better than Neil.
But he's in that caliber.
I’ve only watched two of your reactions. And I subscribed right away. I love how much you appreciate the music. the instruments, the build ups, the intros and the “outros”. I can’t help but feel like you must be a musician yourself. Listening to music with you makes it more special. Thanks.
The drum and bass are the back bone of the band the singer and guitarist are the iceing on the cake
It feels like you’re astral projecting and hovering above your body and watching yourself listen to Tool.
Pretty much!
@@MugnifyRTS hahahaha I don’t believe in any of that… BUT this is the closest thing to it! Glad you dig it. 💪 Thanks for doing your thing.
I've heard Tool referred to as "Math Metal". I thought that was pretty accurate.
I believe the intention of Tools music is to 'massage' the brain. Their intention is to ilicit that auditory response. It's like engineered music for the senses
People do not realize that this is is a modern version of Motown. Michigan music is different and wonderful!.I grew up listening to Motown. My dad used to drive by and show us the houses of all the motown stars when I was a child!
Really should have watched this live. Watching Danny Carey is a show in himself.
With the passing of Neal Peart, the title of Greatest Living Drummer was passed to Danny Carey. Motherfucker is a LEGEND
I f-ing love your reactions man. I'm 15 years into this tool journey and the beauty of it is after listening to a song for 15 years sometimes ya will here something or notice someting you never heard before or realised before and I fucking love that. They are truly works of art.....and dam dude you almost made me tear up with you. I felt that for real. 21:50 onwards
That still happens 29 years in.
The Grudge and Descending are two favorites of mine, but I like all songs by Tool, you can’t go wrong
FYI, the band records the music and arrangement for Maynard to then write lyrics to accompany. Its backwards from most songwriting. Maynard is inspired by the music just like we are 8).
Watching Danny drum is watching a grandmaster at work. It's art.
Bro, those sensations are exactly what tool does to me man.
My fave TOOL reaction yet. My fave song of all time
been a TOOL fan for 20+ years, their music is special in the truest sense, no other band sounds like them and songs never get old.
Saw them first time in 94 at a bar i wasnt old enough to drive at the time but things were different then and u could usually get in for shows and not get served. In sure someone covered this but Danny sets up his kit different than anyone else i know of and according to sacred geometry. For those interested. Man invented his own drum and plays over 30 piece kit sometimes. Hes just as good with 8 or 10 but when he incorporates the synthesizer with his drumming live, you dont need to do drigs to have a psychedlic experience. Sober is the best show youll ever see, and thats why the trademark them. Its like that😊
The answer is: Danny's brain has 4 halves.
It's juuuust that simple.
Danny Carey The king of polyrythym
Tool is a journey can't look for the groove in it the changes are the groove
The reaction at 4:46-4:52, and the "As soon as I get used to the patern it changes..." is one of the best description of Tool I've ever seen and heard. It's one of the many reasons I love them.
Danny is the GOAT!
Tool are masters of space, timing and TONE, no-one can compare!
