Tool is just one entire song with multiple climaxes really.

Tool is the best band I have ever heard. They’re simply on another level. So dynamic. They’re melodic and then they turn it to “11”. All 4 members are masters of their craft. Thank you for the reaction. It’s always great to connect with others that can appreciate just how special this group is. Can’t wait for the new album which they are currently recording. And congrats on England’s victory!!!

17 years after hearing this for the first time, I still get chills. One of the absolute epic live vocal performances ever.

One of Maynards best vocal performances in the history of TOOL

The original is mind blowing too

I've been listening to Rock music for 40 years and only discovered Tool 4 months ago and am blown away by their music.Thier cover of No Quarter is immense and I'm sure you will feel the same

Yes. this is different from the studio version, I suggested this because it's easily one of the greatest live performance's ever, those high notes by Maynard at the end really are amazing for how crisp they sound being that it's live. just remember one thing. You don't listen to Tool, You experience Tool that's the difference from them then anyone ever.

Parabol+Parabola and Schism are both very melodic as well. Waiting for them * its an eletronic kit And thanks for this. Cheers

Right in Two

Started out watching your "The Grudge" reaction when you weren't quite sure what Tool is and went on to "Lateralus" and now this, grinning like a useful idiot the whole time. I can't imagine what it must be like to discover this band at this stage of your life. I can remember watching Sober make its MTV debut in 1993 at the age of 16 like it was last week and here I am 26 years later just as awestruck and inspired by this band as ever. Welcome to the Tool Army.

Chills, chills, more fucking chills. 22 years of pure chills.

I got to see this live 1 month after 911. So crisp and clear and flawless.

Pushit is my favourite song of all time. I love this version but the album version is my all time favourite. Absolutely love it.

Very nice reaction to a superb song. Check another (very) underrated song by Tool - The Patient.

Danny Carey(the drummer) spent years years training under a master to learn tabla drumming, then he brought in an engineer to replicate the sound and made his own pad. Years of work for a 20 second bit, that is the essence of Tool.

The best thing Tool has ever done in my opinion

You absolutely MUST listen to their cover of No Quarter. Off the same album. Also live...Also totally mind blowing. After that You Lied, also from Salival is another totally great live cover of a song by Justin's (bassist) old band Peaches. You are welcome sir. LOL

The entire album Thirteenth Step by A Perfect Circle would probably be up your alley. Most of the songs are really good, but the album as a whole is one of my favorite.

Tool Disposition-Reflection-Triad, 3 songs from the same album that were supposed to be just 1 song

The best band live imo. They play so tight and precise, yet with feeling and emotion coming through. On point. Great reaction.

Pushit was my favorite song for the longest time and it’s mind melting that they could do something like this and improve on what was already as great as it was. I think you’ll love Third Eye! Quite a journey of movements and build up.

Danny Carey actually has a hybrid kit. His kit is a Sonor acoustic kit but he also electronic pads called Mandala pads, something that he helped develop, that are electronic pads that are making the tabla sounds that you hear here.

This is EPIC TOOL.... This to me is as good as music gets as it is utterly spellbinding. May I recommend if not done already, Anaesthetize by Porcupine Tree. Gavin Harrison is another amazing drummer.

Aloke Dutta plays tabla solo (only for Pushit/Salival) Album version is great too.

IMO..the best version of this song is 1998...to watch that man sing with such emotion brings a tear to my eye everytime

Hands down one of the best releases from Tool, magnificent song!

Dude they go to so many different places throughout their albums. I can’t wait for you to hear disposition reflection and triad. All part of a trilogy of songs off of Lateralus. Also yes Danny has electronic pads complimenting his drum kit. He sampled a bunch of tablas himself and uses the pads live for convenience.

Holy fuck, I never heard this until today and...just wow what an amazing transition from the original

The studio version is raw and aggressively vitriolic, the contrast between the two complement each other, feels to me like the two sides of the conversation. When I started listening to Tool, I thought this was about a toxic love affair, sent shivers down my spine when I realised that it was also about the relationship between the id and the ego...

I think you would dig the Patient off Lateralus. It has a big finally from a long time building and is full of melody as well! Really really awesome key changes and interesting time signatures!

I've been listening to Tool here and there for probably 15 or so years, and this is by FAR my favorite song of all of them.

best concert live!! right up there with Pink Floyd!! No one else puts their listeners in the experience of their life time all in 2 and 1/2 hours!! Prove me wrong!!

Jesus the live version of this song. There are no words. NONE.

Thanks for doing this one, and congrats on the win against Sweden! Another melodic one, which at moments is VERY similair to Pushit live is Right in Two. Try giving it a listen. A side recommendation: You should check out Maynard's second band, A Perfect Circle, a good song to start with would be Orestes, Judith or The Hollow.

Absolutely thrilled to see you experience this masterpiece! You heard correctly: it is much different from (and longer than) the studio version. Candidly, I don't really care for the studio version, but this Salival live version is jaw-dropping. Go England!

H. My favorite TOOL song.

These videos take me back to the days when I discovered Tool for the first time. Such a great nostalgic feeling. Keep up the great work mate!

Lol you should look up a picture of danny carey's kit, its a huge kit to begin with, then he has electronic triggers mixed in with his set. Its wild lol

If you want more vocal range and melodies, listen to Maynard’s second band, A Perfect Circle. Songs like The Hollow, Orestes, 3 Libras, Thomas.

The secret is, This is not a song, it's a ritual. 🌀

Haaayyy my first ever KZfaq shoutout.

I love watching people's reactions listening to tool for the first time. That "fuckin hell" says it all 😂

I really like your videos. I appreciate your genuine reactions. Its like I got to be there first time you heard tool, sort of reliving my first time.

Aloke dutta was performing too on “push it” that night with tablas Just answering to your question ;)

Dude, saw this live last year and I had never seen Tool live (or actually heard this track). It was the highlight of the show I think, absolutely STUNNING piece of work

Brilliant video, thank you

or maybe try Right in Two. Some deep social commentary there

Im hearing 3/4 or 6/8 where you hear 4/4 at 7:00

I listened to this again today and watched your reaction from 3 years ago , excellent stuff . Noticed your reaction now to Zappas Joes Garage, I think it surprised you 😜

Absolutely crushing guitars! Sounds as if they're emanating from a volcanic eruption when the ear shredding pinnacle kicks in. The studio version is crisper, but this does prove to be quite a palpable piece of doom laden theatre! As stated: Absolutely brilliant!

Watching your experience for the second time today🍿😁 2001 I was introduced to TooL in history class junior year hs. I was blown away. #1 fan since. Helped me undoubtedly through my maturing phase of life. An opened mind is a free mind. So ready for the new album. Great react🏆

Amazing review Jim...how someone gave this a thumbs down, is totally nuts. Proves that there is a nimrod in every You Tube channel.

The middle section of this song they brought onstage Danny's Tabla instructor, so theyre kind of duoing together. If you want melody, anything off their AENIMA album will blow your mind!

Congrats on the England victory, Jim! They're looking good! Tool is one of the few bands I put the label genius on. Devin's another.

Such a magical sound. Love Tool

One of the best live perfomances of all time. Btw, love your channel, Jim.

we need more tool reactions Jim XD... u are my 1 tool reviewer so far. U rly feel the music!

Fucken Hell alright. What a song, absolute genius piece of music...

If you want to listen to the Drum Carrey Song for Tool, listen to Triad. It's part of a three song series that flow into each other, Disposition, Reflection, and Triad. Reflection is spiritually amazing, great guitar solo, but Triad is Tool's permission for Danny to go bonkers.

I love watching you jam to tool! You get, you got, now get some more!!!

Masterpiece

Thanks for doing this one friend. Those tribal drums you heard are Tabla's played by a man named Aloke Dutta on stage. He is an established Bengali player. He played along side Carey for this song, the other noises you hear during Aloke's parts are Danny playing on his Mandala Drums (Electric). On your off time you should listen to the studio version of this song as well. Not as tribal, but just great non-the less. More tool (slowly of course - alot to absorb) in the future, please!

No doubt it's a beautiful song.. the way the song transcends and builds up.. You should try Right in two , no quarter and wings for Marie (1 and 2). Im sure you won't be disappointed.. love all tool songs. Tool as a band are one of those few gems where the songs are an epic journey and a band where each of the band member are a class apart. Peace.

If you want melody you should do "Wings For Mary/10,000 Days" (it's two song but it works as one piece of music), the saddest song of all times, just beautiful. Update (England won the game, congrats to all of you).

Hey Jim , I got a question , how many time throughout the song did you forget that you were actually listening to a live song?

I didn't get a shout out but I hope my suggestion got to you as well. I like seeing you become a Tool fan over time. They are a pretty significant band for a lot of people, as if you couldn't tell.

Coming from another older english guy this band is the best i have ever heard , you will feel the same soon i know Jim :P

Saw this version of the song performed in San Antonio Texas, Sunken Meadow Gardens. They had a guest drummer perform that drum portion, however I have also seen Danny do it on an electronic set

Enjoy your Tool reactions. If you liked this, you will like Tool's cover of Led Zeppelin's No Quarter.

I need to see TOOL live like I need oxygen

The ethnic percussion was played by his mentor in this show

Yes! Thank you!

Some of the best lyrics ever......”just remember I will always love, you as I claw your fucking thrust away....” best ever

Absolute perfection!

You should listen to "Right in two", such a master piece!

One of my all time favorite TOOL songs is “H”. Check it out! Jimmy is awesome as well

If you want to hear more off the wall percussion work, check out the first 2 minutes of Eulogy.

I have to beg to differ!! Think their tour in 2014 they had the best your of their careers which made this new album they created to be such a drastic change in their mindset going after the emotions of the listener!! Which no other band in history has 4 of the best musicians to walk the earth!!

Tool Disposition, Reflection, Triad! It's 3 songs in one and it's an unbelievable journey that you MUST experience if you want to understand and appreciate Tool. :)

Yeah tool! Thanks!

i liked it before i wvwn watched it. i love your reactions bro.

lol one last note, if you want to hear crazy time signatures, listen to Vicarious, Jambi and Wings/10K Days. Thanks again for your review and for following up and offering what your audience requests. Much appreciation and much love

I was at this show..... so so good. buzz from the Melvins with Scott reader from Kyuss came out to do the Nuge's Stranglehold as well perform this STUNNING version of Pushit

so ridicously good !

This is great but you should really try the studio version too, to appreciate the diversity of this version. Also you get that visceral intro that feels like it’s digging in deep.

Jim for president!!

Wow! Great video Jim!!

Woohoo Pushit! My Fav

If you want to find more melody in Tool you should react to Disposition/Reflection/Triad or Wings for Marie !

Hey Jim! Im Back from the Festival. Awesome videos you did there, i was happily suprised to see my favorite Ayreon and my favorite Tool song on your channel suddenly! :D love it. First of all: Drum facts! Some people ask that in other videos: The Instrument you hear starting about 5:30 and 10:00 what sounds like some kind of traditional drum is often used by Danny Carey, its an electric Drumset integrated into his full Set. He does awesome stuff with that i totally agree with you there + i still cant believe how amazing maynard sings live in this song :) So! The Festival was super awesome, i go there every year since 2010 and this year was the best of em all. I promised you to let you know if i hear anything interesting or just really good there and i absolutly did. So take a listen to the Band: "Evergrey" and their song " In Orbit" Floor Jansen is in it and i enjoyed listening to them alot as i didnt know them at all before. Let me know how you like it :) Happy to be back!

There's a version of them playing this live in Maine in 98 I believe. Watch it please!!!!

Foohkin hell wow...about. Somes it up!

I just discovered u Jim and really like your knowledge of music. Keep going brother

Not many people get flood by tool but it I really love the fact that you get it . That is such a great song. And in reality the whole Undertow album is ridiculous Li good

My favorite of Tool's has to be Eulogy. You think this is a slow burner...

Hey Jim, love these reactions! Another Tool song that has more melody that i think you would appreciate is The Patient. Give it a look!

Hey Jim, like it very much to watch you reacting good music. Especialy Tool, was fun to see you hearing it the first time (grudge). Very clear analytics, getting to the point! A recommendation: the band is kyuss, songs could be demon cleaner, green machine, fatso forgotso, freedom run, gardenia... I would love it to watch you discovering them! Greetings from Leipzig

F-ing Hell!... yeah, that was my reaction when I first heard Pushit.

Tool Jimmy (Bonus points for Intermission lead in).

yes
