      TOOL - Invincible

    • @withoutfame5781

      Maybe "Vicarious"

    • @rayromero815
      @rayromero815 Před rokem +1

      7empest, Eulogy, Jambi, Invincible or Vicarious, all these songs are Masterpieces by the one and only TOOL.
      TOOL is FOREVER.

      To appreciate the percussion in this band watch the drum cam of danny Carey playing pnuema. The 8 arm octopus. Also, tool lyrics are very deep and cryptic so figuring them out on the first pass probably will not happen. Enjoy

    For future reference, those chaotic instrumentals are a part of Tool’s style. It’s done like that on purpose.
    Other songs to check out are Stinkfist, H., Eulogy, Forty Six & 2, Enema, Schism, Parabola, Lateralus to name a few.

    • @jacobfromallstate4963

      @davidhiatt7995 Před rokem

      Fantastic picks.
      I'd add to this list: Third Eye, Prison Sex, Bottom, Jimmy, Tick & Leeches.....
      F**k it. ANYTHING by Tool is life-changing.
      Do the whole damned discography and you'll never regret it.

  • @da9pauly
    @da9pauly Před rokem +8

    This was written about a musician friend of the band who felt that his musical talents were best when he wasn’t sober.
    Gotta react too songs 46 & 2 (think chromosomes and evolution) and Schism, also the Grudge!!

  • @nucl3arboNg
    @nucl3arboNg Před rokem +10

    I've read a lot that this song is about a friend of the band (possibly Bill Manspeaker) that felt he could only be creative when under the influence. You should watch the live remastered version of this song which Maynard really brings out the emotion in the song. Also this was with Tool's original bassist Paul D'Amour who left the group between the Undertow and Aenima albums.

  • @PowderedToastMan420

  • @metalmark1214
    @metalmark1214 Před rokem +5

    Tool guitarist Adam Jones explained in an interview wtih Guitar School: "The song and video are based on a guy we know who is at his artistic best when he's loaded. A lot of people give him s--t for that. I don't tell people to do or not do drugs. You can do what you want, but you have to take responsibility for what happens. If you become addicted and a junkie, well, that's your fault."

    Great to see you enjoying Tool! There isn't a bad Tool song! 46&2, Right in Two, Eulogy, some others worth checking out!

  • @elbryan9
    @elbryan9 Před rokem

    This is why I like watching your videos because your astute commentaries are always so spot on. I haven't heard this song is a really long time. When I was listening to it I was pretty young in fact and more or less just got caught up in the music and the general ambiance of the song but never really paid much attention to the lyrics. Until now I didn't realize just how deep this song really is. Excellent commentary as always.
    ETA: Would love to see you react and hear your thoughts on Schism; another great song of theirs.

  • @Tdub0911
    @Tdub0911 Před 9 měsíci

    Favorite band of all time. Hands down, no one else comes close. Maynard is the sh*t. First heard Undertow and Opiate at the same time as the first came out in 93. Fan since and never will not be.

  • @starknight2262
    @starknight2262 Před rokem +5

    You should do a reaction to The Maynard's mom trilogy. Which are 3 songs that Mynard( the lead singer of Tool & a another band called a perfect circle ) wrote about and for his mother. But their is a certain order to these songs. Start with
    1.) Judith by a perfect Circle
    2) Wings for Marie by Tool
    3.) 10,000 Days by Tool.

    New here, been watching for about 2 hours and so far best reaction content, since not only you FEEL the music but you’re honest, passionate and surrender to it all. With that being said, please don’t not overlook Forty Six & 2 by this band. Like every tool song is a journey, this one in particular is an one of the inner kind. ✨🤘🏾❤️‍🔥

    Damn girl, I have listened to far to many Tool reviews and you have such a different view of where they are coming from than others. I watched your reviews on Schism and The Pot and I have to say...Awesome work. As far as the next Tool song Eulogy will blow you away.

    One of "those" Tool fans here. Good choice and great reaction! I enjoyed this very much. Thank you! The comment section has already done a good job of explaining the song, so I won't do it here. What next, you ask? Pushit, The Grudge, Lateralus, Pneuma, & Right in Two are some of my favorites, but this is not an exhaustive list by far.

  • @johnnyb6067
    @johnnyb6067 Před rokem +1

    The entire Undertow album (Sober is on it) is about abuse, addiction, and the battle against it. I definitely recommend listening to it from beginning to end. Or at least the songs, Bottom, Undertow, Swamp Song, and Flood. The next album, Aenima, seems to be about facing reality and dealing with it. And the album after that, Lateralus, is about rising above and finding peace. There are songs that are better than others but they’re all good in my opinion.

  • @mariovrandecic5690
