Tool-Stinkfist-Johnkew Drum Cover

- This is a song that takes me back to my college days, and I still feel that Ænima is one of the best albums of the 90s. I remember that everyone was wondering if Tool could put out an album as successful as Undertow, and this album exceeded everyone's expectations. As the first single, and the opening track, Stinkfist reminds me of the whole phenomenon of Tool blossoming and taking music to a whole new dimension.
This song is not one of Tool's most complicated pieces, but it is masterfully composed and executed. One of the things I always notice when trying to learn one of their songs, is the great work ethic of Danny Carey. He refuses to use the same fill twice in a song, and even the accents are varied to freshen up the drumming. It makes for very complex drumming, even on seemingly basic pieces.
Anyway, I think you can tell that I had a lot of fun playing this. Highly recommended!

This guy is underrated he deserves more subscribers
Cameron Myers he deserves more than that, I went to tool earlier in june and they played stinkfist and Danny Carey was sweating profusely but this man plays this song easy without breaking a sweat. Honestly he deserves more than subscribers.
+Evan Mitchell that's bc Danny Carey plays 10+ songs in a row!!!
@@Claypoool and if it was outdoors it was probably like 90+ degrees
@@evanmitchell770 They usually play Stinkfist at the end of their concerts. So he probably played about 10 or more songs before playing this song, so that’s probably why he was sweating.
i guess it's quite off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch newly released tv shows online ?
always loved the fill at 1:35
Yea, its one of those you always take the time to really enjoy when it comes up....
Has anyone suggested you do Jambi? I think you should do Jambi. Did I mention Jambi?
you know what he should cover next?? Jambi!
I think he should do Jambi!
please please
yep i think you should........Jambi it is
By the way....Jambi
I love watching drum covers. I mean, take for instance in this video: At some points he's doing one rhythm with his right leg, another with his left, a different one with his right arm and a fourth with his left. The timing, stamina and endurance, concentration and ability to do multiple things with legs and arms at the same time is amazing. I mean, when I got out of bed this morning I almost lost my balance for no apparent reason; this is why I don't play drums.
Stella Perkins or maybe why you SHOULD play drums!!
I used to be enamored by Cobus and some other girl drummers. They were all good. But John is definitely better than them and sadly, he does not get enough views. While they get far far more. Then again, McDonalds gets the most customers.
Another excellent cover, John. Thank you.
+Bervick It is indeed sad to see when their attractivness plays a major role when it comes to their views.
especially that metal cohen girl.. using her tits and body to gain fame..
Your great
Cobus is an excellent drummer. He has come so far. It's all about entertainment and exposure vs personal taste at the end of it. Cobus may not cover songs of Danny's technical level, but he is certainly a very technical drummer. I feel like he's quite expressive in his playing as well. I think his visual emotion is more in how he does his own rendition of a song, as opposed to an exact cover note for note.
Cobus is a great player. And his band plays some solid stuff (Venture heights i believe its called)
And cobus had a huge influence on me in my developing years. But John here is a drummers drummer (much like our beloved D. Carey). And while youre right Cobus has never really covered anything of this skill level, (Stinkfist really isnt THAT hard comparatively), both of these guys are great players and I wish them both many years of great playing and progression.
only drummer i've seen on YT cover every tool song flawless, amazing bruv
the transition from the first 3 albums was really like watching a evolving species. just brutal at first, then the 2nd is angry, but understands why and what needs to happen.
By Lateralus they were just like, scientifically breaking it down to a spiritual level while the instrumentation became great as ever. Anyways....
Nice cover
+kingadalou Agreed, Lateralus was transcendent, both for Tool and anyone lucky enough to listen to the album.
+johnkew love coming back to this channel time and time again to find you've only gotten better (against seemingly harsh odds)! I can think of very few CZcams musicians who appreciate the detail and subtleties in others' work the way you do man. Inspiring!
+kingadalou Excellent comment - definitely agreed. I apologize in advance for the lengthy comment below - usurping your post isn't my intention. Just thought the placement would be appropriate.
Opiate was adolescent anger, frustration & disillusionment at society & the general level of emotional immaturity at which it predominantly exists...an angst-ridden social critique from the mind of an outcasted & angry intelligent man. Undertow channels that anger & frustration into more of a psychological expose while starting to shift the critical eye inward for further introspection. Aenima is the result of that introspection...years of Tool refining their understanding of human nature, their own personal emotional voids, dreams, desires, mistakes - reflection & introspection towards increased self-knowledge...the first steps towards reprogramming one's own identity & self-identity...moving towards the re-creation of who they are, how they perceive themselves & learning how these reality-tunnels are relative - be pliable...reprogram at will...self-evolution. Then Lateralus - the zenith of TOOL - the ascension. Maynard & Tool have broken through the lower states of consciousness into the higher...the worldly into the spiritual...the material/physical into the energetic/etheric. The critical mind is now devoted solely to introspection & the vantage point is no longer psychological but spiritual. The psychological topics of ego, arrogance, isolation, power dynamics, subjugation, psychedelics have all become spiritual/inward - analogously ego-death, kundalini rising, ascension, the Will, sacred geometry, meditation, etc. This is the peak of their inner search...everything prior was intended to culminate to this point - as is everything that happened before was merely a test, merely a compass to guide to this moment of ascension - of the unification of atma with paramatma - to see oneself & one's divinity without the tainted & limited lens of ego. I consider Lateralus a gift...and Tool at their best. 10,000 Days is the resolution...the reflection & cleansing after the climax. The inner journey has reached its peak - found what it was seeking its entire life. But work remains to be done...the work of cleansing remnants of the past, relationships, unfinished work, further development of one's spiritual powers & further exploration of that which is now known to exist.
What comes next? Hopefully the coming months will tell as the next album finally gets released!
+metaprog46and2 .... hmmm well. yes... essentially that is right. although 10,000 days definitely has great records on it. Ænema is just an amazing vibe and really ahead of its time... Btw, ever listen to gojira? Terra Incognita a listen... then listen to everything after, they evolved in a a similar fashion.
+kingadalou Indeed it does - the denouement comment wasn't intended to imply otherwise. Though in comparison to Aenima & Lateralus, I do think it somewhat pales a tad bit (with the exception of Wings For Marie 1&2, Jambi & Intension). Re: Gojira - no I have not. I'll put Terra Incognita on my short-list...thanks for the rec.
jesus christ man, these tool covers are pretty spot on
Flawless. Mad respect for anyone who attempts a tool drum cover.
Signed in just to post this. John, you're amazing!! It's a real treat when a new Tool song pops up covered by you. Please do Jambi next!
+- Jai Thanks man! Jambi would be a lot of fun.
+johnkew yes Jambi!
+johnkew Rosetta is waiting for you John! JUST DI IT :P
This never gets old... I wish I could thumb up every time I watched. One thing that makes me enjoy it so much, is seeing you smile throughout most of the song. Shows you enjoy the music you make.
Heard this song on the radio a few months ago and loved it. As a fellow drummer and fan, I knew your love of Tool so I searched for you covering this song. Didn't have one, but today that changed! Great job on a killer song!
Absolutely flawless!
Absolutely sick. One of the most spot-on drum covers I've seen! Great work!!
I'll never attempt another tool song again after watching this!
new sub, and love the vids man!!
Thanks for the great feedback!
johnkew, have you ever met the sweet prince Danny Carey?
johnkew, fark me fella u nail it. killer.
Great job John! You totally naild it, very accurate and power play. Thank you for sharing! Greetings from Brazil!
My most favorite song of all time and you just nailed it perfectly! Awesome job!
Awesome stuff as usual John. Keep up the good work.

+PPSChadwick Thanks man!
Beautiful as always, sir. Thank you
again nice drum playing dude. awesome work!
Nothing less than extraordinary from you John! Great cover as always! Cheers!
Spot on! Kit sounds great!
Great job again John Williams! Watching you replicate Danny Carey's drumming makes me realise how textual and musical it is; even during a simple-sounding part, he always adds a little something else that unveils itself on multiple listens. That's why he's my favourite drummer!
+Marcus King Well said!
Dude, perfect cover! I love this song and I'm currently obsessed with Tool! Love the enthusiasm of your playing. Please cover 10,000 Days!
Absolutely love your drumming! My 6 year son can't stop watching your videos. He's now taking drum lessons and loving it!
You are THE beast! Thanks for making this awesome videos.
You're the best in covering tool's songs! I love the way you play man!

It frustrates me how flawlessly amazing your covers are! Nice job man :D
One of my all time favorite songs!! Great cover!!!
Damn brother. That was an awesome cover. I love this song and have been a huge fan of Tool since 1994. I've watched a lot of Danny Carey drum covers and I have to say that this is one of my top 5. Nice job man!
Absolutely sick cover dude!
favorite Tool song. Great cover
amazing as always!!
Their are very few Drummers on the internet who try to cover Tool but, johnkew really pull the strings high enough by playing the songs so well and satisfyingly good to hear just the drums , which I feel you are the most top-notch drummer on youtube
I've enjoyed all the TOOL covers that you carried out keeping the songs where they deserve to be on the high level, as a drummer myself I triped over on some of your drum Technics which is helping me improve myself by being a strong backbone of my band
I've seen your Band playing and really looking forward to it..
super cover by the way
amazing work sir! my favourite Tool song done perfectly.
One of my favorite tool jams :D Nice job as always and best of luck with the project!
Awesome! Loved it.
I can’t imagine the practice that went into this. Freakin’ amazing.
Wow. Very nice work John.
Very tight! Sweet kick sound bro.
Wow! You really nailed that!
I think i have never seen toms sounding so good on youtube videos, great job.
I love what I hear from you! Such a joy to watch. I'm so impressed with you. I'm definitely a subscriber.
Well done John!
Geeeeezzz bro!!! Danny has to smile seeing someone kill it with his art he created
Fantastic cover!

Amazing work! Thank you!
Amazing. The verse is one of the only Carey parts I can play... forget the chorus. That double hit on the snare gets me every time, it’s so nuanced and powerful.
That's a nice room. Like the paint job and the door, and with the lighting too.
You sir... Are awesome. Nicely done
This is incredible! You got that snare on point, sounds just like the original. Wonderful cover, you've got a new sub, my friend :)

Another impeccable Tool cover. Keep it up, fucking beautiful.
+Nicky Buttigieg Glad you like it my friend.
I love the snare sound.
great work Jonh. Seriosly you've made a huge progress. Tool songs are really very challenging to play but I think after all those years I can see progress also in feeling.
Really a great cover and the sound is just amazing !
+René Zmajkovič Thanks for the great feedback; I'm glad the progress in the overall feel of the song is more apparent.
John you are TOTALLY AWESOME man!!!! I think that's cool that you're an archaeologists but you can play Danny Carey perfectly note for note it's amazing!!!! I watch you all the time so keep it up!!! In fact I actually like watching you more than I like watching Danny lol lol 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
