      I had never heard anything by Tool until last year although I knew them by name. This was the first song I listened to and since then it's one of my favorites, I've also been obsessed with Tool ever since I even try to take what I can incorporate into my guitar playing style. Adam Jones' style and the way he plays and writes riffs inspires me a lot, I like how simple but expressive he is, he just has some fucking good heavy guitar riffs.

    How to know you're getting better: came back to this and I can actually play now. I still can't do a lot of the little things but I can play along. Amazing. Never thought it would happen; this song was so intimidating before.

    This is my first time coming across your channel. For me, this is some of the best guitar instruction I have ever seen on CZcams. Very clear, concise, direct, at a nice pace, with tabs. And a great explanation of the timing. Flat out, Awesome.

      Yeah idk, everyone else will show you how to play and how to get the sound. It's lacking alot of information. Maybe for a beginner guitar player this would be ok. Any serious player, this lesson is a joke. Buy a tab book, practice, do some research and teach yourself. You will blow this guys skills away in less than a year. My ten year old could teach this better, that's no lie.

  • @themightykyuss
    @themightykyuss Před 4 lety +3

    Your ability to describe these riffs and songs is amazing. A lot of times I can play these with enough repetition and practice, but ultimately have no idea what I'm actually playing lol. Really great videos man! Thanks so much.

  • @davidlepahe
    @davidlepahe Před 4 lety +3

    I can't tell you how much these videos have helped me... Tool is my favourite band (just like a third of the planet) and their music means a lot to me.
    I've always known a few riffs, but I really wanted to learn their songs in entirety; but for me the hardest part was where to start and how to approach it.
    Thanks to yourself and these tutorials I can play a vast number of their songs, and instead of getting fairly close I feel like I can really nail them. It's such a satisfying feeling. It's just a shame youtube won't allow you to do the playthrough anymore like you did in your older videos.
    Regardless, you do an amazing job, so just wanted to send a massive and sincere thankyou!

    Whoever is fiddling with the delay like I did, here are the settings I used, which allowed me to play along to the recording: I used my Boss DD-200 in the standard delay mode with the feedback all the way down, giving you exactly one repeat. I set it to dotted eighth with a delay of 500ms (90bpm). 500ms is also the 12 o'clock setting of a Boss DD-3 in L-mode (which ranges from 200 to 800ms). And we all know who uses that pedal, right? RIGHT? Thanks Greg for this awesome lesson. #spiralout

    Just found your channel trying to play pneuma (obviously). But thank you for this tutorial I’ve never seen better tutorial. You include tabs and say stuff “like it’ drops in harder through each 3 intro verses then backs off for last 4th bar….which is what I need!! That’s how musicians hear it and how tutorials should be. Not just reading out note for note like most tutorials. If I wanted that I’d just read the tabs. So thanks man this hard work is appreciated for people that learn visually instead of reading notes.

    I just want to say thank you for doing what you do. Because of yard hard work I don’t have to get a record to start over and over, a tape or cd to constantly rewind and my ear never gets soar from rubbing the guitar on my ear. old school musician joke)Those were my days in 1990’s at 18 years old..Thank God for guys like you. Even with all my years as a non professional musician and educated music theorist. You save me a lot of time! To anyone learning from the Man here. Be thankful! I must admit Tools c-d part is the sickest part of the song for me. Time to jump in the pit at 47 years old and thrash around like I just don’t care lol. Learning this song in under an hour with you has been super rewarding! Thank you also for always clarifying the count with the unconventional time signatures.

      It`s one of the best songs they`ve ever recorded.

      My favorite song on the album is the one I'm playing at the time. I seriously am not sure.

      The one I’m listening to at the moment is my favorite. Then the next one playing becomes my favorite, until the album repeats.

      Agreed. The buildup leading to "MOBILIZE, STAY ALIVE" blows me away every time.
