You are going to get swarmed with new users on this one. Tool is incredible for both their musicality and lyricism. They dive really deep with metaphors but touch on a lot of psychology, religion/spiritualism, ect. Pretty much any of their songs are amazing, but with how much you dig the drums you might like to see the Danny Carey Drum Cam on the song Pneuma. The vocals are in the background of that video, but you can see the drummer at full work. He does love his polyrhythms and they call him the octopus for good reason.

100% spot on!!!! Best reaction to this song with trying to break down the meaning. Tool is all very deep and every song Maynard writes has several meanings as well as its open to personal interpretation, which makes his music age well and relatable to anyone, even if wrote years ago. He also has this thing about him where he can dis someone with a back hand and make it sophisticated and beautiful at the same time with words. Awesome dude buckle up for the journey. Every Tool song is a ride for sure. Fun Fact all the members in this band are men of lots of creativity and many talents. Maynard the singer is in 3 BANDS all are very different but Unique and amazing in their own way. Theu each show different sides of him as a person as well as personal growth. So you have lots of songs to listen too. 🎶 Get ready welcome to the Tool Army! So much more to learn.

Very few of their songs lack masterful lyricism and musicianship. It’s one of the things that makes this band so great. It doesn’t matter what tool song you listen to next. Pick any one and you’ll enjoy it just as much as this one, I promise.

Its actually Maynard calling out Jimmy Paige from Led Zepplin. Paige tried to sue clubs and bands for covering their songs, which is ironic because Led Zepplin was essentially a blues cover band (Muddy Waters refrence).

As a Tool nerd...I love watching people getting their minds blown by them. You, by far, are the best reaction video I have seen. Your ability to break down and interpret the lyrics was awesome to watch. Mad respect man.

The “bongo” sound are his Mandala pads. They are drum pads with up to dozens of quadrants where the sampled sound is of a different note/sound/pitch whatever the yser wants it to be. He has various mandala pads in his drum kit. There is a reason he is heralded as one of the absolute best.

I know you're doing a new metal band every Monday so the next time you plan to do a random offshoot reaction, definitely 100% check out Danny Carey live playing Pnuema. His nickname is "The Octopus" for a reason Edit: and yes those are polyrhythms

Everyone in this group is a master of their instruments And Maynard's pen game is so far ahead of his time Loved the reaction brother keep being awesome I'll keep watching 46&2 Aenema Hooker with a penis All great tracks with a lot for you to unpack lyrically

“This is deep as shit” describes everything they’ve ever done. Just start at the beginning and react to them all lol. It’s a fun ride to listen to their progression.

So glad you checked out Tool! Maynard and Billy had a band Perfect Circle, great music as well. I love Tool 💗 loving metal mondays!!! Forty six & 2 next or maybe Sober or maybe a song from Opiate?

I've always described watching Maynard live is it's like your at church and he is the preacher. His vocal ability as well as his brilliant writing is amazing. If you ever have a chance to go see Tool live do it! I guarantee if you see them live you will truly be amazed at the talent this band has, they are one of a kind. There isn't another band out there like them only people who try to imitate them.

His comments on the lyrics are so bloody perfect. This lyric is about hypocrisy, this lyric is about dodging the subject etc. the song literally about hypocrisy and drugs and he nailed those guesses. Great breakdown of the lyrics

Love your channel bro!!! Tool has been my absolute FAVORITE band of all time since I was 13 and "allowed" to buy their second album Undertow in 1993 and listened to it on repeat for months. Then I went back to buy their first album Opiate which never got much recognition until Stinkfist and Sober got radio play. Opiate was a bit "heavier" in the overall sound, but equally as good as Undertow, and I am still amazed to this day of how "ahead of the times" that ALL of their music is and continues to be- like Light-years ahead of the times of music man. Thanks so much for your intelligent and insightful comments all the time and for being SO open minded! Laura P. from Boston ❤❤

Any time I see a reaction to The Pot, I watch. Your reaction has been the best I have seen. I haven't seen anyone else dig into the lyrics of this song anywhere near as much as you have. You're also picking up on the drums and engineering. Well done. I need to watch more of your reactions for sure.

Please please, please more Tool. You won't be disappointed. Mynard is a lyrical genius and Danny, Adam & Justin are masters at their craft. This is probably the greatest band ever. They're in a genre of their own and they are DEEP! Been listening to them for over 30yrs. You are going to love them. Great breakdown. You got my sub.
