@@Mechness it's because of that song that I started following Tool. The bass line on it is out of this world, it was just a youtube recommendation at first. I'm not from the US (where tool is not popular outside of the metal scene ) and never was into metal until adulthood, All I knew was a couple of Metallica songs. Now, I'm all about metal. On a side note, the they also nailed Lateralus.
Another very well done cover. Band played extremely well. Sophia nailed the vocals. I love the spice she brings. It's not Maynard and it's not meant to be. It's her own smoky sultry pepper version and I fucking love it.
I cried during this song. Forty years of fighting depression. It's worth the fight to hear a song that reaches into my soul and telling me to keep going. Thank you Sophia and each and every one of Brass Against.
Holy f** k! Please... pardon my language, I have been a die-hard *TOOL* fan for 30 years and this has to be, without a doubt, one of the best covers I've heard! Well done!
@@sailirish7 Yeah they kick it on many Tool charts, but The Pot is my favorite also, it simply kicks ass from start to end and leaves you hungry for more more more.
As a former member of marching band, I can only imagine how amazing it must be to be immersed in the music while covering these killer songs. Made my day! Thank you! And gorgeous vocals!
Guitar section is killing it. Brass is a nice touch. Vocalist is possessed by Maynard’s prose. No drummer ever should have to read sheet music for Tool.
I was ready to rage and hate on this band for having the audacity to even dare to cover a tool song and rework it .but before I could type the audio started and wow what a great rendition and a great listening experience and a great band. Will definately look for more of this band, you earned my admiration, respect and support.
Just thinking as I listen to this... How incredible these lyrics are. The way Maynard put them together seems almost impossible too think of. Imagine writing to this instrumental..the way he structured the words to the instruments is amazing. Also, usually tool covers are deafening...you sound natural for this and have an absolute beautiful voice.
This took every aspect of my musical tastes and brought it seamlessly together! The vocal prowess of Portishead...the horns of Mad Caddies...the hardness the Tool themselves bring! Love it, I hope to hear more! I just listened twice in a row!
"ft. Sophia Urista" Yes, click immediately. She is an incredible talent, I've loved every cover you've done with her so far. Great work to everyone involved!
She is the REAL DEAL - power, passion, sultry, firey, and a killer set of vocal chops to top it off. I don't follow vocalists as a rule, but I gladly make exceptions when they're exceptional.. and she is the hottest thing I've heard in a while.
It blows my mind how this many people doing the song shows me how complex the song is and why i could never imagine how four people brought this much sound.
Holy shit dude. Never even would have thought of this style for a Tool cover but I am so glad I found this. Must continue binging all their tool covers. Also the singer is so hot 🙃
@@alexkmoz Thought the drums were better on this Tool cover than the last one. I kinda feel bad for that guy he is like "wait I have to what on the drums?"
Would love to see Brass Against play side-by-side with the bands they are covering, with each playing every other verse. Could be cool to hear the change mid song.
Rainy grey winter day... freezing... Locked inside house (covid is out there)... And suddenly... Wait! Stop everything! It's going to be the BEST 5:10" of the day! Thank you Brass Against! \m/
One of my favorite tracks and y'all crushed it, as always. Sophia adding this sultry tone to the verse and rage to the chorus, excellently done. And the bridge where the brass cuts loose makes the arrangement sound jittery and desperate. Really excellent cover, as always. I hope I get a chance to see you guys live!
I've been D Y I N G to see you guys to Stinkfist, and it's ever bit the raw emotion tension that I'd hoped it would be. You did it justice, yet made it entirely your own. Thank you!
Lol right...its one thing as a drummer when someone's says "lets do a Rage song" it's a whole other thing when someone says "hey, let's do a TOOL song" lol 👍👍👍 nailed it tho !!!!🔥🎶🔥🎶👍💫💘👍🙏
I mean, it's not even about chops a lot of the time (like in the chorus), he (or whoever is writing his transcriptions) just doesn't bother getting the parts right
I knew this was gonna be amazing as soon as it popped up. The fact that you pulled this off during covid is even MORE AMAZING! Drummer masked up, everyone several feet apart. You all continue to rock and amaze. Sophia...... incredible 🔥🔥🔥
Brass against always makes the best Tool covers. You actually got me really into Tool. What I'd like to see covered most is Pneuma, my favorite Tool song.
![Tool - Stinkfist [clone cover]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/9A0-InU41Do/mqdefault.jpg)
OK, now, I want all the Tool discography by Brass against. Can't get enough of this, I need more.
It was their cover of The Pot that got me hooked.
I'm still hooked.
Nothing seems to satisfy?
Next: Pneuma. Good luck 😉
Agreed

Q: How many Brass Against covers do you want?
A: Yes.
Awl o dem
Yeeeaaauuhhh
Covering mostly Rage against the machine and Tool .... this must be my people
Maybe Deftones at a time?
for reals
Welcome Brother
mine too!
Our peeps
How are your TOOL covers so GOOD??? Sophia is one of the few vocalists that can do TOOL songs justice.
Don't forget the drummer filling Carey's shoes.
This is why I pay for internet.
Preach!!!
The best comment I’ve ever read on UA-cam.
wasn't having the best day but then i read you're comment and laughed so hard, thank you for that
Tinha de ser BR!
Me too.
You know it’s going to be fire when they bring out the tuba.
😆😆😆😆
But its s sousaphone
Another very well done cover. Band played extremely well. Sophia nailed the vocals. I love the spice she brings. It's not Maynard and it's not meant to be. It's her own smoky sultry pepper version and I fucking love it.
@@chllnlikeavlln Meh, I love the skinhead/mohawk combo :D (probably jealousy as a bald man)
Sultry pepper, nailed it.
This is trash.
still waiting for a cover of Deftone's Passenger with Sophia and Sam
Oh shit!
that NEEDS to happen!!
Exactly
Jeebus. Thinking of that gave me goosebumps!
@@jason_arnold Me too! OMG that would be a total eargasm!!
Nothing like waking up with the stink of fresh brass against.
I just woke up to this also! My day is going to kick ass now
This didn't age well
@@helverus no?
I cried during this song. Forty years of fighting depression. It's worth the fight to hear a song that reaches into my soul and telling me to keep going.
Thank you Sophia and each and every one of Brass Against.
Given the lyrics, that might not be your soul it's reaching into...
@@MickMcGarnackle Well done Sir.
Hope you're ok Dennis x
I mean it's not her song lol
This is actually a song telling you no not keep going lol
Jesus, her voice is so perfect for this song!
It packs a hell of a punch no doubt
It's ok she isn't hitting quite a few of the high notes in the chorus. My guess is it's the auto tune she is using.
Really?? There's no conviction to it... the soft lines sound good...
It’s sounds nice bro
@@tosh_is_me942
You sound pissed 😵💫
Holy f** k! Please... pardon my language, I have been a die-hard *TOOL* fan for 30 years and this has to be, without a doubt, one of the best covers I've heard! Well done!
Look up their cover for The Pot and come back to us here.
O'Keefe music foundation has some good ones too
@@Rivanking2112 Yes! I've had 46 and 2 saved in my playlist for years and it's what got my daughter interested in learning to play real music!
@@HammSilv +1 on The Pot cover. Frankly I think it's better than this one.
@@sailirish7 Yeah they kick it on many Tool charts, but The Pot is my favorite also, it simply kicks ass from start to end and leaves you hungry for more more more.
Just not enough.
I need more.
Nothing seems to satisfy.
This satisfies.
This is a genius comment.
This group gets it. They made it their own, but didn't lose sight of the original. Awesome!
As a former member of marching band, I can only imagine how amazing it must be to be immersed in the music while covering these killer songs. Made my day! Thank you! And gorgeous vocals!
I demand more shots of epic sax guy and his epic sax shuffle.
He will be your orderly in the nursing home someday!
Also the Tuba sway 🤣❤️
I love him🥺
Finally found something that doesn't suck in 2020!
You can add my ex to that list...
Guitar section is killing it. Brass is a nice touch. Vocalist is possessed by Maynard’s prose. No drummer ever should have to read sheet music for Tool.
I feel like this entire concept is a 'Hold my beer' moment. Its batsh** crazy and I absolutely love it.
How on Earth is she so good at Tool songs?!?!?!?! And how is it that Tool songs lend themselves so well to brass bands?!
stinkist hasn't given me goosebumps in a long, long time but today it did :)
wow sophia kills this and makes it her own
Sophia is my favorite!
The trumpet gives me warm Cake vibes. What a joy! ❤️
Please continue to cover every Tool song. I'll wait...
1:32 Roy Keane on the sax
I have never heard anyone cover Maynard's vocals as well as her, he is one of the hardest people to cover and she kills it.
2:11 🔥 I fall to pieces....
This project keeps topping itself and Sophia is a treasure!! Don't ever stop!
Sophia's best performance. She knocked it out!
0:57 Sophia choking the mic like it owes her money🤘🏼💀
I am in a Brass Against UA-cam hole. I don't know how I got here. I don't know why I haven't been here until now. I never want to leave.
Me: Stinkfist by Tool is a song that just can not be covered.
Brass Against: Hold my beer.
Hold my spit valve...
Hold my trombone.
I was ready to rage and hate on this band for having the audacity to even dare to cover a tool song and rework it .but before I could type the audio started and wow what a great rendition and a great listening experience and a great band. Will definately look for more of this band, you earned my admiration, respect and support.
Wow. Just wow. I mean wow! Faith in humanity restored by artists like these.
I used to play the Bari sax in high school. This makes me happier than I've been in a long while
Just thinking as I listen to this...
How incredible these lyrics are. The way Maynard put them together seems almost impossible too think of. Imagine writing to this instrumental..the way he structured the words to the instruments is amazing.
Also, usually tool covers are deafening...you sound natural for this and have an absolute beautiful voice.
Love the grit and her use of vibrato she is an amazing and interesting singer to follow! Stunning!
Someday soon, a movie director is going to realize that the entire Catalogue of Brass Against is a fully made soundtrack ripe for all the emmys
Good..... good
This took every aspect of my musical tastes and brought it seamlessly together! The vocal prowess of Portishead...the horns of Mad Caddies...the hardness the Tool themselves bring! Love it, I hope to hear more! I just listened twice in a row!
my GOD.. I was specting normal.. this cover is amazing..more more!!!
Never heard of these guys until today, yet now I want a shitload more of it.
Same. They really.....pissed a lot of people off.
Careful what you wish for.
You mean a pissload
@@jerseyirish You're correct. That's the word I was looking for. 😅
so beautiful
"ft. Sophia Urista"

@@mjd4174 still hot after she gave a dude a golden shower?
Her originals are amazing too.
WOW!!!! Great cover--this lady rocks!!! Brass Against--insane what you were able to do with this. Amazing .
Best vocalist I've ever heard covering Tool. And she's hot AF.
Sorry Maynard, you're bumped!
Kekw, don't make me laugh when I eat
😂
*Sophia Urista* & _BRASS AGAINST_
- A combination so perfect I get literal goosebumps!! 🤘🤘❤️
Always enjoy a Tool cover from Brass Against to ease what ails. Bless this immunity.
My favourite song of all time and Brass against... makes it awsome
The crescendo at 3:26 is magnificent. Well done Brass Against - well done indeed. "Relax, turn around, and take my hand" - pure, twisted, poetry.
thank you all ever so much, hope to see more
Her voice though...magical
The arrangements are so good and eargasmic, it makes me forget the originals and enjoy the authenticity of the songs.
Is it possible this gave me goosebumps and tears at the same time? Truly! Her voice, smoking hot. The horns, doing Tool justice. Love it!
Every new Rage and Tool song you cover just blows my mind.
I love how Sophia always looks like a lioness ready to pounce and just kill it right before she starts singing. Another amazing performance Brass!
It blows my mind how this many people doing the song shows me how complex the song is and why i could never imagine how four people brought this much sound.
Another absolutely bonkers version of a legendary tool song. Cheers Brass Against!! Keep them coming.
This BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE.....
Which one is the mystery.
But, seriously! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
For me it was blood from the ears.
Holy shit dude. Never even would have thought of this style for a Tool cover but I am so glad I found this. Must continue binging all their tool covers. Also the singer is so hot 🙃
this is by far the best one yet....
Badasses against the machine💯👏👏👏
I cannot count anymore how often Brass Against and Sophia Urista gave me goosebumps.
Brass Against, Sophia Urista, Tool... instant like!
SUPERB!! Who woulda thunked it? PLEASE, more Tool. Stunning, Stunning, Stunning. Edit just found some more. Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy.
Why did it take so long for this cover? Were you guys waiting for the sax player to finish his killing spree?
Danny Carey, the alien drummer.
@@alexkmoz Thought the drums were better on this Tool cover than the last one. I kinda feel bad for that guy he is like "wait I have to what on the drums?"
This made my day
When I first read the description "angry sax", I assumed it was a typo. 😉
@SophiaUrista is the ONLY other person that can make Tool sounds this good!
The very first Tool i have heard. Wow. As powerful as it should be
Can never get enough of these tool covers . Need more! Her voice fits so nicely for this one
Would love to see Brass Against play side-by-side with the bands they are covering, with each playing every other verse. Could be cool to hear the change mid song.
Tool goes on tour with them in 22
Awesome Cover
Yesssss keep this Tool train going
Oh mannnn she KILLED it on vocals. Whole thing is excellent of course as usual but I was really astounded by the vocals
Aye, my favorite TOOL song! I’m sure this’ll be great, as I love all of your work!
Sophia Uristas voice is pure goosebumps
Vocals and instruments blitzed this track great work
Rainy grey winter day... freezing...
Locked inside house (covid is out there)...
And suddenly...
Wait! Stop everything! It's going to be the BEST 5:10" of the day!
Thank you Brass Against! \m/
You only played it once?! TRAVESTY!!! ;)
Sophia has such a awesome presence.
One of my favorite tracks and y'all crushed it, as always. Sophia adding this sultry tone to the verse and rage to the chorus, excellently done. And the bridge where the brass cuts loose makes the arrangement sound jittery and desperate.
Really excellent cover, as always. I hope I get a chance to see you guys live!
This is the best one yet. A lot of people ignore this song because they have the wrong idea about the meaning.
Damn, she's so good. They all are, but she ties the whole thing together every time.
I've been D Y I N G to see you guys to Stinkfist, and it's ever bit the raw emotion tension that I'd hoped it would be. You did it justice, yet made it entirely your own. Thank you!
Drummer gets word we’re doing Tool..
Ahhh shit here we go again
Yeah and he reading the music which is interesting.
I swear they only hired him to mime along with the drum track. His parts never line up
Go Go Gadget Sheet Music!
This guy has it covered. No sweat 😁😉😉😉.
Brass Against w/ Sophia Urista = no can defense! Just stumbled across this tonight and this is incredible! The Pot was off the charts.
Drummer 🤔 " sigh... Another tool song, gotta work on my chops" lol good job as always!
Lol right...its one thing as a drummer when someone's says "lets do a Rage song" it's a whole other thing when someone says "hey, let's do a TOOL song" lol 👍👍👍 nailed it tho !!!!🔥🎶🔥🎶👍💫💘👍🙏
How many years/decades of practicing till the drummer is capable of playing something like pneuma? 🤔😂
I mean, it's not even about chops a lot of the time (like in the chorus), he (or whoever is writing his transcriptions) just doesn't bother getting the parts right
just want I wanted to XMAS one of my fav tools song on my fav cover band. Thanks guys
I sorta knew and hoped Sophia would skip the part where Maynard swears in Portuguese during the bridge lol. Wonderful cover, I love her voice so much.
wait what?
@@vanilla_milkshake In the bridge, Maynard keeps repeating a phrase that is better not translated here, best if you look it up instead.
@@XistoKente what are you afraid of? ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
Holy. Crap. You guys killed it!!! And the lady singing is just a-ma-zing.
Gave me goosebumps...well done! 👏👏👏👏
Me too
Taking one of the most powerful songs of it's day...and raising the power level exponentially. The rock gods walk amongst us once more.
Cyberpunk 2077 on Thursday and a new Tool cover on Friday. Christmas came early this year.
Badass sax and the words of rev. maynard from such a beautiful woman. Cheers.
The drummer just threw the next sheet trying to keep up like "NEXT!"
Badass
Sophia is my favorite singer!
Damn, I'm gonna need a cigarette after that🥴
They were the opener for Tool when I went to see them in Dublin last month and they played this
I knew this was gonna be amazing as soon as it popped up. The fact that you pulled this off during covid is even MORE AMAZING! Drummer masked up, everyone several feet apart. You all continue to rock and amaze. Sophia...... incredible 🔥🔥🔥
Brass against always makes the best Tool covers. You actually got me really into Tool.
What I'd like to see covered most is Pneuma, my favorite Tool song.
Should cover 'My Ass Is On Fire " by Mr. Bungle!
