2 жыл бұрынSkullz reacts to Schism by Tool
Tool is an American rock band from Los Angeles. Formed in 1990... due to Tool's incorporation of visual arts and very long and complex releases, the band is generally described as a style-transcending act and part of progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and art rock. The relationship between the band and today's music industry is ambivalent, at times marked by censorship, and the band's insistence on privacy....Tool has won four Grammy Awards, performed worldwide tours, and produced albums topping the charts in several countries.

Skullz, I’ve watched dozens of reactors doing Tool videos. None of them seem to fully “get” Tool the way you do. The reason no other band compares to Tool is their combination of musicianship, spirituality, intelligence, emotion, and fundamental badassery. You appear to appreciate it all, and your analyses are so insightful, especially, as you pointed out, on a first listen. I’m 100% on board for the rest of your Tool journey. Thanks for sharing it with us. Spiral out!

It's unbelievable how he dissect every lyric line and then wrap it all together, not losing overall meaning of the song. Sometimes I think 'no way they could blend together music and lyrics in a such a way he is representing, nobody's that smart', but hey, maybe I'm not :)

This song is about the band almost breaking up when they came back aftter touring for Aenima. They didn't take a break and we're at each other's throats because they were so tired of being around each other they hadn't talked about Maynard being in A Perfect Circle and so on the 1st day of recording they all walked past the producer and went into a room and hashed things out for a full day. When they came back, they made one of the greatest albums ever recorded and even a song that follows the fibinacci sequence.

One of my favorite thing about Tool songs is that they hit different depending on your mood and current situation of life. Every time I’ve been through drastic life changing events when I finally get back to tool in the new mind set the songs just have a new weight to them. Maynard’s lyrics are obviously very malleable and can fit many themes but the music and instrumentals just strike this primal thing in me and fires me up to push myself to grow and change. It’s a very unique motivational thing that it pulls out of me. Part the music and part admiration for how mush energy and effort they put into it. Thank again for another great reaction

I was adopted into a family where my parents were old enough to be my grandparents, and it was hard to find common ground at times from the age gap. Music was definitely not a place we came together with too often. I had an aunt in her 70s staying with us. I was downstairs listening to this song...and turned it up. Right after it ended, i heard footsteps coming slowly down the stairs. It was my aunt She said "Whatever you were just playing, it was incredible. What is this?" I showed her this song again, and had her listen to this album. It may not have been something she listens to everyday but she was blown away by the sheer beauty of this band's craft. Lateralus has always been my favorite from this album. It was my son's lullaby when he was a baby, it's what I play when life gets rough and I need to center myself. Loving these reaction videos. Tool fits no category, they are all their own. The music and lyrics move mountains at every turn

Here's another way to discover/explore the phenomenon that is TOOL: One of my favorite things to do is find recordings of just the music-only tracks of TOOL songs and try to sing Maynard's part, all the while keeping in mind that Maynard gets his inspiration, writes and records his voice part only after listening to the completed musical score. You get an idea of just how special the music alone is and how different it sounds without the voice. You can appreciate the individual instruments, and also even more realize what a miraculous singer and songwriter Maynard is to imagine how clever you'd have to be to time lyrics with TOOL's crazy poly rhythms. I think we are really dealing with 4 alien life forms. Thank you Skullz, you're killin' it!

The time alternates 5/8 and 7/8 the whole way through. That adds up to a more conventional 12/8, but splitting them creates a rhythmic “schism.” 🤙🤙

This album has so much significance to me as it was literally these songs that turned me around during a suicidal binge of self hatred. This album gave me mantras to focus on, and provided the permission to feel, and to grow, and to "spiral out" to a place where I'd never been - a place of self acceptance. This album was a religious experience for me. These tracks, to me, complete 46 and 2.

Tool is known for weird time signatures and ever changing time signatures. It’s just so interesting.

Great great song and awesome reaction!! If you want to dive down a rabbit hole. Look into the squaring off the circle in sacred geometry “The poetry that comes from the squaring off between, and the circling is worth it. Find beauty in the dissonance.”

Great reaction. I think the lyrics are more about the relationship between humanity rather than between any 2 particular people.

It's like watching someone discover slowly that, no, there are no errors on this album. The feeling continues till the very last tone. Lateralus IS a 10/10. You'll see.

Great stuff man. You are my favorite reviewer of TOOL songs! You just get it. Lateralus is my favorite TOOL album. But I cannot wait until you dive into 10,000 Days. I have said it before: Undertow is all about Angst and Rage. It is the howling of the underdeveloped id. Ænema is about destroying our pasts, our regrets, and our mistakes and beginning to see that something can grow from the ashes. Lateralus is the reflection on where we have been, the process of spiritual, emotional, and mental growth, and overcoming the challenges presented to us. I won't spoil 10,000 Days or Fear Inoculum, but each album is a transcendent experience.
