One of the greatest songs ever composed Brilliant

Tool can be overwhelming at times. I saw them live two nights ago and I'm still wondering how the hell they did it. You can listen to a Tool song a dozen, a hundred times and it never gets old. They have no bad songs. They have no peers.

As tool fans we had to wait 13 years after 10000 days for this…. But it was worth it… they constantly evolved. This whole album is fantastic 👍

This is in my opinion the best produced Tool song along with Lateralus. Instruments and vocals sound so good. The mix is absolutely beautiful. Crisp and powerful, dynamic and full of constrast. An absolute masterpiece.

I'm enjoying your Tool journey, thanks for sharing it with us, brother.

Me and my husband saw them Monday and he teared up to this. I cried to Invincible. It's not the first time we've heard these songs in concert, but you never know how their masterpieces will touch you.

If you did a back to back pneums, album and live drum cam, we are here for it as tool fans. You get to witness greatness right in front of uou. It's amazing.

Great video man, as tool fans we don’t mind the pauses, we love to see your insights and your thoughts, I would also like to add that, first listens are very overwhelming but the next couple of listens, the more it grows onto you and dissect it easier, but great video overall

Fun fact... this album debuted at number 1 ahead of Taylor Swift. They released at the same time. Everyone was asking who Tool was. We all knew. That's how big their fan base is.

Another great reaction. They truly are the best that’s ever been

With Tool, it feels like my favorite song of theirs is always the one that I'm currently listening, so they all seem my favorite when I listen to them, but eventually, after countless listens of their discography, things end up settling, and I must say this is actually my favorite song. It hits deeply, special, intimately even, at a soul level. ✨

The different levels this song delivers to the listener is truly an experience that stays with you. Multiple listens will reveal parts you didnt hear before. It doesn't require substances to appreciate the diverse originality Tool songs provide all of us. Cheers brother!🌀🤘🤙

This song is incredible and relatable as hell in 2024. Its messed up to watch all the things going on right now. Traumatized by ourselves. insanity running rampant. Tool lyrics are so well written. Love the lyrics to the grudge.

We had to wait 13 years to hear how adam would find a way to pound that open d power chord. Worth it!!!

This was me 4 and a half years ago when I first heard this track as well... It quickly became my new favorite

Epic journey! Awesome reaction!..💯👍

Haha it is overwhelming at times. This song I still haven't figured out some things with the timing etc at parts. I hope to over the next few years naturally, I can't wait for it to click and say oh ye I get it.

We waited 13 years for this album. It did not disappoint.

Bro. I get your emotions and thoughts on this song. I feel the call to disrupt the final collapse. Whew this song gets me every time.

Yes this is one of the most beautiful songs.

The same feeling happened to me about 6 months ago but a different tool song. The end of lateralus really got me, honestly My whole life has changed. It was like a whole perspective shift. I heard this song for the first time 2 weeks ago and I think I listened to it everyday since. It's like a call to arms. Do or die.

In one interview I watched Maynard said they thought songs they were listening to climaxed in the wrong place, so they had to write their own. 🔩

its a wake up call. notice the main beat sounds like a blaring alarm until the end

Maynard is a lyrical genius

I have loved Tool from the second I first heard them in '95...but for me, Descending is their best song.

I’m going to see them tonight here in Vegas , I think it will be my 16th show . If I was rich, I would follow them around the world and watch them blow it out of the park !! Words can’t describe a live TOOL show ! Especially now with their insane light and laser extravaganza, that’s better than a Pink Floyd show .. Saeed if there ever in your neck of the woods you gotta check them out !! Love your reactions, keep it up ! Another great band to check out King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard , their claim to fame is they just managed to record 25 albums in 10 years , and they are a jam band Pink Floydish , some of their songs are bluesy , they’ve done metal, and techno with a little rap, insane talent!! Check out motorspirit and Change to hear how diverse these guys are ! You won’t be disappointed!!

In Rosetta Stoned, he did say he was given a message....🤔

Babylon Zoo 'Spaceman'... i used to have a 12" techno remix of that which i used as a dj back in my younger years Respect & Peace ☘

“Swan song or epilogue”. Either we are transforming or ending?

You should really consider seeing if Tool is touring through wherever you live and gooooo 😎😎🤘🏼

In my opinion this album is a masterpiece on Tools maturity.

Do you know what the secret is to writing this type of music?... Spiraling out!

7:46 "The other party thinks that of the other one. They think that we are asleep, and we are thinking that they are sleeping. So who's sleeping, guys?! We're all in the matrix!" Lol, I love this guy! Subscribed 👍😂

Along with Cullings Voices, it's the best one on the album.. But it took me a while to make that choice, Invincible and Pneuma were my favourite ones at the start

Great reaction! Keep exploring, as TOOL will forever change your taste and/or perception of music. 🌀🌀

Stir us from our wanton slumber has been the human theme since 2016

Music has saved my life… multiple times…

0:25 Pop acts release albums that are 14 minutes these days. - I am laughing my butt off, while thinking - “there is more creativity in a 14min Tool song than there is in a lot of artist’s entire catalog”. Spiral Out, brotha!

four geniuses that's how they do it , simple !!:P

Most epic song ever

Maaaan you get this shit! Wooooohooooo 🎉

This is what PEAK TOOL sounds like!

Yes.

My favorite Tool song.

I love that you paused just after the end of the lyrics and mentioned that there was still 5 minutes left in the song. As a writer, or a well-read person, the lyrics should make you feel a little sick, and the band let you sit with that feeling for another 5 minutes. It is a little difficult. I love it!

Noticed you payed attention and noticed it ourself there was still 5 minutes of the song left... And you seemed a bit surprised, but aren't you glad you stayed the journey.

yeah... and most pop artists don't even write their own songs, and they certainly couldn't write a masterpiece like this Respect & Peace ☘

The band Tool is substance free. They take their craft seriously.

Man you get Tool… welcome to the army.. (spiritual cognitive spiraling army are but a few superlatives…..)

I appreciate your reaction. This song is one of my favorite songs of all time. I get goosebumps every time. I see this song as being about the direction the world is going with climate change and all the other man made processes that put our survival as a species in peril. It starts from winds (solar winds?) then water, then out of the water. and after all the amazing creations eventually returns to the water.

All your reactions point to Remedy by Puscifer near the top of the list when you dive in there.

Those who dont believe all folks should have equal rights are asleep, just to answer your question.❤

I wish you were my friend 😢

9:17 - never apologize for pausing. Tool fans (specifically) won’t truly care that you paused. We have done it ourselves often to absorb what we hear. Spiral Out Brotha!

If this song was called "Global warming ", maybe the desperate call to arms and final warming would be understood. To me that's the context. The madness of our own making. In the end of song the ocean waves remain, not our noise

Bro, just slow down and shut your eyes..... yw

I first listened to this during the Covid lockdown when no one yet knew how bad it would get ,so the lyrics were very pointed to me.
