Still the greatest album opener of all time.

Slipknot's drummer was amazed in 2019 at hearing the new album. He asked Danny how many layers were in his percussion. He said "That's just me"

A lot of people like to say that their favorite TOOL song is the one they are listening to right now and there is a lot of truth in that. However The Grudge is special. It's probably my all-time favorite. An astonishing opener to what I consider the greatest album ever made. The last 100 seconds or so still blow my mind over 20 years later.🤯

That was a 25 second scream btw, when I saw them live last year they did the Grudge and Maynard still managed a decent 13 second scream after having COVID twice.

There is nothing like Tool, and for those of us that like the sound, it is ..... I am just so thankful they exist.

The groove at 5:14 is impossible to not physically move to

One of their heavier songs and a stand out on an album of stand outs. Glad you enjoyed. Spiral Out!

Worth reading the lyrics. Cheers.

This is a masterpiece. The profound lyrics, the interwoven music, Maynard's vocals, Danny's drumming...just magnificent

22 seconds of a primal let GOOOOOOOOOOOOO … I saw them play this in Dublin Ireland in May 2022. Maynard walked to the back of the podium , grabbed the rails with both hands, looked down, inhaled, walked to the front of the podium and screamed out GOOOOOOOOO … a magic moment in time. Dude you have to listen to Parabol/Parabola BUT DO NOT LOOK AT OFFICIAL VIDEO because it’ll distract from the song 🎶 React to Tool and the Tool army will come … 🌀out 🤘🏼

"Schism" and "46&2" is a must.

Tool-The Patient is a ripper.

THE best drummer on the planet. My favorite bassist alive. The best tones and guitar licks I've ever heard. And then there's Maynard the poet and ultimate lead singer. To sum it up - TOOL!

No matter how many times I listen to this song, I gradually turn up the volume the entire time

My (current) favorite Tool song is Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned. But I will admit, it is a wild fucking ride, so maybe we should save it for later, lol 😅 When it comes to Tool, I'll find myself picking a new favorite whenever I'm revisiting a certain album of theirs. Also, it helps that each album has a distinct personality and flavor of its own.

Glad you’re creeping back into Tool! As parents, listen to “Jambi.” You can relate. Maynard’s vocals soar, And that bass!

T00L - The Patient & Invincible

Rosetta Stoned is truly special. Keep listening. I have 30 years of Tool listening, so it only gets better.

Glad to see you dive into Tool even more. I think I can call myself a fan and with every listen discovering new things, new meanings, new messages. And the instrumentals...come on... Otherworldly. One of my favs songs are this one, The Patient, Parabol/Parabola/Reflections, Jambi, Invincible and I could name them all at this point hahahah. Keep enjoying the Tool spiral.

Descending and Lateralus are my favorite Tool songs but by the smallest degree because every Tool song is great!!

"Rosetta stoned" is one of my favorites. I give it 10.000 out of negative 4°. Gotta listen to the intro track.

This one and Descending are my two favorites, but for different reasons. There’s about 15-20 more that are damn near as good too. These guys are the truth 🤘👊

Great reaction vid. "Pushit" and "Descending" from them are 2 of my favs. So many good ones, can't miss. Spiral out good folks 🤘🏼👁🌀🌀🌀

Every Tool fan says the same thing, the last Tool song they heard is their favorite. Trust the Tool Army 🤘🏻🌀

Loved the reaction guys. Tool is one of the greatest and most important bands of all time. Maynard's voice is mesmerizing and soul piercing, Danny's drumming is unreal. My favorite tool song is Sober.

I think the intro is my favorite part in this track. People STILL doing reactions to TOOL makes my heart happy!

Countdown to the scream in 3....2....1....😂 25 seconds in case you're wondering lol

My favorite Tool song is Bottom. It’s a little more angry and straight to the punch. Would love to see you two react to it!

Maynard's lyrics are very heavily influenced by the school of Alchemy on this song. I think a lot of people think of alchemists as a King's subject given the task of transmuting lead into gold; or any other lesser metal into a more precious metal. BUT, the true goal of the Alchemist is to transmute his or her attitudes. Transforming the self. Grudges can be transmuted from a major point of contention throughout your life, or you can "LET GO" and transmute that anchor into gold in the process. Speaking more about the weight of the issue (lead/anchor) being transformed into understanding of the issue (gold/light).

you may disagree but, no other band comes even close to Tool, in terms of creativity, complexity and epicness.

My favorite part is at 5:14 and 6:51 when that snare drops within that momentary pause. Hard to explain how powerful and impactful it is.

Perfection! 🔥TOOL🤟🏻 Thanks guys, I always enjoy your videos! 😌

The Grudge, my favorite Tool song. Thanks ✨🖤✨

That song tool released somewhere between 1990 and today. That's my favourite tool song.

Right in two is my current fav. Whatever tool song you heard last seems to be your fav at any given time. In my experience anyway. 😊

So excited you guys are reacting more to TOOL.

Every time I listen to The Grudge, I remember that it is the OPENING track of the album. Really tells you the caliber of the album. One of the greatest of all time.

Drop the needle on their first track of their first EP and don't stop until you Hit the last track on their last LP! 🤞✌

Love your reactions!!! I would love to see you react to 7empest from their last album. So much perfection in this song. I‘m sure it will blow your mind. ❤ Stay healthy and happy

Aside from just being a masterpiece, I've always said that one of the most impressive things about this song is the sheer balls it takes to start an album with a song like this.

The Patient is a great journey!!! I would love to see you two do that one!!!

My favorite tool song is what ever they are currently playing. I’m not sure what you have done so far, but there is sooooo much goodness. Start with the Aenima album and then Lateralis and then 10,000 days. You will be so happy you took the journey.

Lol..."whats your favorite Tool song?", she says... Our favorite Tool song is always whichever one we just listened to.

Descending is my favourite you really go on a journey with that one... They are all great though this one is a close second

this is my favorite song on my favorite album by my favorite band. This is the greatest piece of music ever recorded. When I saw them play this live in 2002, I literally just about creamed my jeans 🤣 #spiralout

You can't really go wrong, but some of my favorites (it changes) are Lateralus, Grudge, Parabol/Parabola,Vicarious, Right in Two, Jambi, The Pot. But the best thing to do is listen to all of it starting from the EP!

Thank you for bringing us more tool! Hope you guys continue on your tool journey! Can’t go wrong w anything the tool army recommends. Every song is amazing!

It's funny that you start out by saying this is a journey because The Grudge highlights the journey going from resentment and holding a grudge to fully letting go. The feeling you had at the end of the song, like you wanted more? It's the first track on the album and it absolutely propells you into listening to more. I highly recommend eating an edible, putting on some headphones and just ride the wave of the Lateralus album. Worth the 78 minutes. I'm a huge Tool fan and my favorite song of theirs is The Patient off Lateralus. Hope you do a reaction on it, it's amazing!

funny thing is he did pass out in the booth. scream was supposed to be 28 sec. to coinside with the theme of saturn returning every 28 yrs. but he only made it 24 sec. wimp jambi and pushit are very cool

REFLECTION is my favorite lateralus album song.

The best opening song in music history. PERIOD.

Descending is my fave Tool song it's off their Fear Inoculum album. If you want a really long song try 7empest off this same album, it's about 16 minutes!

All of them. Depends on how I'm feeling at the time. Wings for Marie pt.1 and 10,000 days played together are currently holding my top spot at the moment.

Ænima us prolly my favorite song of all time, and I've been listening to TOOL since '93

Danny has a jazz drumming background. They call him the "Human Octopus". But you guys should listen to The Patient or maybe Disposition and Reflection but only if you listen to them together because they go together. However as a TOOL fan I don't have a favorite song and I'd suggest starting where it began and just going through the whole album.

Also, I agree with other comments. This is one of the top 3 or 5 greatest albums of all time. It belongs with Dark Side of the Moon and Abby Road

1:46 Church? Absolutely!! 😄 And this is the congregation of awakened souls in the presence of musical greatness that we call "TOOL".

Tool is like watching an opera, while riding a roller coaster, on DMT.

Schism H Stinkfist Rosetta stoned are my favorites right now. But let me listen to their discography for the 1000th time and that will change again.

No 3 minute pop singles BS from them. True to their craft. Yes each one of them r perfectionist, IMO

Descending from their latest album is quite the ride

UNDERTOW is an earlier album that is my favorite album. Crawl Away, Swap Song, 4° .

Tool is 4 artists who are masters of their craft

Tool makes me feel funny inside lol. Maynard sings so well in any way from soft to guttural. Great band

Descending is one of my Favourites, but have lots of Favourites. 46/2 is another . Right in two .. the list goes on

best reaction to the 25sec scream ever

Gotta listen to Right in Two and the most insane drumming in Ticks and Leeches by The Octapus!

Fun Fact: I was born in Kentucky, but raised in Ravenna, Ohio where Maynard was born. When my sister moved out of my dads house in Ravenna she lived with Maynard and his mom before TOOL was even a thing. True Story!!

Now Im sure, you are both deep in the Tool's rabbit hole :) Off - In The Grudge we have the longest Maynard's scream, over 20 secs :) I know Im not Patreon but if you'd be kind enough reacting to Invincible I'd be very happy :)

Hands down, The Grudge is my favorite Tool song. Another one of my favorites is Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned. It's another one where Danny's drumming will blow your minds. (Worth mentioning, having the lyrics pulled up are definitely a must with this one.) Great reaction! Instant-sub after watching this video. 👏

One of my top three favorite songs

you guys look pleasantly fried. lol this one of my favorite tool songs. Feels like floating to me.

Tool is my favorite group of all time. Favorite two songs are the pot and jambi. I highly recommend this group. Cheers !!. Great reaction

Lmao 😝 the song did what it suppose to do, she was mesmerized and man you awwed at the power of it💪 👽

“This is my favorite TOOL song”. 😂😂😂😂😅😅😂😂. Welcome to the 🌀.

Throw a dart at their 30 year discography and you'll hit a masterpiece...👍

Tool- Jambi. So heavy, great lyrics

Keep listening it evolves ❤

I never listened to tool growing up and I feel like I missed out. Only heard them on the radio and liked it. But never listened to an album. Winter of 2019 before the Fear Inoculum release I decided to catch up on the band. And since 2019 TOOL hasn't not been in my vehicle cd player. Went to 3 concerts of theirs too. I took my kids and my MOM.... she's been to a pink floyd dark side of the moon concert when she was younger. My mom and my kids still bring up how good the concert was all the time. This band is so talented. And they sound so good. Best metal band of all time in my opinion. And that's not even hard to say.

46 & 2. The drum solo alone towards the end will blow your minds. Ænema, Jimmy, The Pot, and Invincible are all great songs to check out

Sooo many great ones. Right in Two is right up there though. A masterpiece.

I hope you are able to add Tool into the mix more often, like weekly?! Tool has been my favorite band since I first picked up Undertow and I knew no one could ever top them. Every album and song is a journey like no other and you won't regret the incredible ride down the rabbit hole with them. I'd love to hear your reaction to Forty Six and 2, it's my favorite song and the lyrics are next level...literally. Great reaction, I hope to see more soon!

2:55 "What the hell was that?" I read in an interview at the time that Adam Jones made that sound with an Epilady on the guitar strings.

It’s the natural pattern; the last tool song you hear becomes your favorite.

So fill a dart board with all the Tool songs you havent listened to in each slot. Stand back and throw a dart and youll hit a great Tool song!

Any Tool is great Tool but start from the beginning of their discography and work your way through, trust me.and the Tool army

Best drum outro in all rock history

June 2001, I walk into a FYE music store before my shift at The Cheesecake Factory and they had like 20 or so albums up on the wall with headphones to listen to them before you buy. I see the new Tool album and think the cover art is bizarre yet cool. I toss on the headphones and listen to The Grudge as the album opener. I proceeded to stand there and listen to this whole song thinking it was the best fucking thing I ever heard. Their preceding Aenima album is great but this was just a whole different level of a different kind of awesomeness. I listened to the song 3 times since I couldn’t pause or rewind. I walked in late to my shift because of this song! After I made enough money in tips, I ran over to the store to buy it so it couldn’t sell out. I couldn’t stop listening to it over and over. One of the best songs ever in my humble opinion and I love watching others react to it imagining myself the first time I heard it in that FYE store in 2001. Great reaction!

Descending next it's my favorite song it's longer and I would love you two too hear it

You guys would love this album in its entirety.

Third Eye, Flood, and Wings for Marie pt 2 have got to be my favorites...

My favorite tool song is All of them

And the Tool army grows :3

That Lateralus album is 💯 really great!

Hell yea! TOOL deep dive!!!!!

Love the reaction! I feel like you guys need some Alice In Chains on your channel! Anything from their MTV unplugged session would be gold! And more TOOL!

This CD yes a CD stays in my car and i listen to this song all the time

TOOL ARMY!

One of the few bands that can change up their brand (musically as well as their logo) and be amazing again and again. Look closely at 10,000 Days. It actually reads “FooL” 😂🌀

This song stands out to me regarding tool songs because of its visceral, primal power. It fills the blood stream with determination and the desire to lash out of the cocoon that once protected us but now suffocates us until we let it go and burst out of the karmic loop of tough love lessons. ❤️
