Bass lord and low-end master Justin Chancellor kicks on and dishes out some essential sounds he uses during a Tool live experience.
“Will the next Tool album take more than 10,000 days?”
That was an ongoing (and agonizing) joke for Tool fans that awaited the band’s fifth album following the release of 2006’s 10,000 Days. (A cruel clairvoyance of a title.) For those counting, when Fear Inoculum was finally delivered on August 30, 2019, it was just 4,868 days from their previous album. All crummy jokes aside, the anticipation of the album was real for a reason: the music. And the rhythmic cog of their constant contorting of depth and darkness is bassist Justin Chancellor.
Sure, drummer Danny Carey is a living legend bashing everything his large frame can smash and crash. Adam Jones transforms his guitar into a Hans Zimmer production with varied textures, temperaments, and traits his tone expresses. During shows, singer and lyricist Maynard James Keenan prowls in the shadows adding to the band’s musical mysticism. This triumvirate core dished out the punishing EP Opiate in 1992, and their 1993 debut full-length Undertow was more complex and calculated in its rage. But in 1995, when Justin Chancellor replaced Paul D’Amour on bass, Tool immediately expanded their dimensionality. The original three continued to dazzle and dumbfound listeners, but the addition of Chancellor and his pocket-minded role unlocked a collective vocabulary previously unspoken. Simply put, if Tool was an octopus, Chancellor was the head. The others could be momentarily independent tentacles exploring the melodic murkiness of their respective reaches, but when they needed to propel forward, Chancellor was steering. His lines are the base for the band’s groove and attitude that became a focal point on subsequent releases with 1996’s Ænima, 2001’s Lateralus, 2006’s 10,000 Days, and eventually 2019’s Fear Inoculum. The former three went triple-platinum, while the latter three were No. 1 on the Billboard 200. (Ænima landed in the No. 2 spot.)
If you ever catch yourself playing air guitar to Tool, you’re probably mimicking Chancellor’s parts. “Schism,” “The Pot,” “Forty Six & 2,” “H.,” “Fear Inoculum,” “Descending,” “The Grudge,” and plenty of others feature his buoyant bass riffs.
Chancellor’s tone has had a longstanding relationship with Wal basses, Gallien-Krueger amps, and Mesa/Boogie cabs. The evolving part of his rig has been his pedalboard. At this juncture of the band’s run supporting Fear Inoculum, Chancellor’s board is larger than his guitar-playing counterparts. Yet everything has a place and purpose. Some of it is duplicity, some of it is to avoid any required knob-turning during the show, and as we find out in the Rundown, some of it is just for fun. Grab a seat and get comfortable as Chancellor and his tech Pete Lewis walk PG’s elated Chris Kies through his live setup.

Love when an interviewer is a total professional and know what and when to ask, especially when it comes to these kind of equipment run-through. Great video!
Wow, thank you!
Thats a massive pedal board that’s wild
Would love to see one of these videos with Adam Jones
I think Justin and Danny are much more impressive as musicians and having met everybody at work things and birthdays or running errands and at friends shows and what not I can say the rhythm section aren’t just talent but great guys. The other two rank in the top 5 to 10ish worst famous/successful people I’ve ever met.
@@fuckgoogle8661oh yeah? What’s wrong with Adam Jones? We know Maynard is an asshole but what about Chewbacca?
Absolutely incredible. I watched a much shorter video of his rig rundown years ago. This was the best I've ever seen with Justin.
So nice the artist is stepping back, respect
Justin is a great basses without them pedals, but with them he's phenomenal.
Watch the video with Justin jamming with Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey he kind of struggles to keep up with them
@christmeister ......yeah because he plays a totally different style. Listening to his album and live recordings, you can't deny he's phenomenol.
Wooden and Bailey are from another planet
I recently saw Tool live in Boston @ TD Bank Arena. 2nd time I've seen Tool live. This bass rig tutorial is awesome. Thanks for doing this. Rock on!
Sweet. I love a more vintage pedalboard, like this. ❤️😎
Justin looks like one of the dwarves on The Hobbit, but in a good way
Love content like this
Man, that tone is so iconic!
Love this guy right here.
Tone tone tone, damn one of the best sounding rigs masterly steered by a bass god!
Top of the tops 🙌
Thats a huge pedalboard damn lmfaoo
gotta love the guys @ tool ( also first yea!)
Why doesn't he use a compressor pedal?
Wouldn't be surprised if this was all connected to a rack mount unit compressor
I recently discovered playing without a compressor, feels like a different kind of instrument, somehow more alive and breathing
With lots of drive or distortion, and a little controlled playing, compression can be limited.. no pun intended 😂
He does watch the full video
Because he knows the pieces fit
I’m not sure if I could actually decide if it’s either Justin or Danny who are the most talented in the band, but they’re also the only guys in the band you ever want to cross paths with, so cheers to them for once again proving once again on or of the stage the rhythm section are probably the best musically or as humans.
