  • Welcome, fellow audiophiles, drumming enthusiasts, TOOL fans, and lovers of all things progressive! Today, we've scored an exclusive backstage peek into the rhythmic labyrinth that is Danny Carey's drum kingdom for TOOL's Fear Inoculum Tour. Surrounded by instruments, Danny is joined by Modern Drummer CEO David Frangioni as they peel back the layers of Carey's one-of-a-kind drum arsenal.

    World renowned drum tech, Joe Slaby, graciously provided a detailed gear list of the components that Danny used for this particular show (gear list below). Joe emphasized that the setup is constantly changing and evolving, so the list is just a snapshot of the decisions for that day.
    Danny's Gear in this Video:
    The drums are Sonor SQ2 with Vintage series lugs. Sonor made Danny two versions of this touring kit, one beech, one maple. These toms are beech, these kicks are maple. The kicks and toms are wrapped with a design by Alex Grey. The shells on the smallest tom are thickest and they get thinner as the drum diameter increases.
    Drums:
    The main snares are two Sonor HLD590’s (one with 10 lugs, one with 12 lugs) both 14” x 8” bronze drums. Also, he has a new Dunnett 14” x 8” purple bronze snare and a Sonor 14" x 8" beech snare that has a wrap that matches the toms.
    From left to right, the drums are: 8" x 8" and 10" x 10" SQ2 rack toms, 14" rototom with custom mount by Brian Totten (this drum was formerly owned by Terry Bozzio!), 16" x 14" and 18" x 16" SQ2 floor toms with legs, 16" x 22" SQ2 Gong Drum (with Danny Carey's portrait by Alex Grey), 18" x 22" and 20" x 24" SQ2 Bass Drums.
    Cymbals:
    All cymbals are paiste except where noted;
    - 22" "Monad" Danny Carey signature dry heavy ride
    - pair 12” Stewart Copeland signature hi hats
    - 18" Signature full crash with 2002 5” cup chime inverted on top
    - 18" Signature power crash with Hammerax 6” bell inverted on top
    - 20" Signature power crash with 5” Hammerax FX inverted on top
    - 24” NOVO china
    - 22" signature thin China
    - Noiseworks stack, 18" china, 11” top
    - “Twenty” series 10" splash with Dark Energy 8" splash (inverted on top)

    - Cup Chime #1 8” and Cup Chime #3 7” (inverted on top)
    - 38” Symphonic gong
    - 60” Sound Creation Earth gong (seperate from the kit)

    - Buchla Marimba Lumina Gold mallet keyboard, which is triggering a rack mounted Access Virus synth
    - Rupert Neve 16 channel summing mixer for all electronic drum components to FOH
    - Original Korg Wave drum ('94) with custom rack mount by Brian Totten
    - “Toolbox” modular Euro rack synth by Peter Grenader, used on “Chocolate Chip Trip” drum solo.
    Hardware:

    - Sonor hardware for cymbals, electronic drums, mic and tom arms, and snare stand
    - Pearl Rack System
    - Roc n Soc Throne

    - Snare: coated Power Center on batter, 300 weight snare side w/ Puresound snare wires
    - Kicks: Clear EQ3 on batter (removable ring out), Inked EQ3 on resonant side with 4" air vent, with Evans EQ pillows barely touching each head.
    Sticks:
    - @VicFirth Danny Carey signature model, wood tip

    Im just amazed at how humble Danny is. I saw them a month ago in OKC and purchased VIP tickets, and him and Justin were obviously the most cordial and friendly. You could definitely tell Adam was not comfortable around people, and thats who I was there to see the most, but they still came out after the warm up session (which was by far one of the coolest things ive ever seen) and took a pic. I was literally 3 feet from Danny and 10 from Adam. Danny shook everyones hand he walked past, and you could just see how nice of a guy he is by his interactions. They were all so cool, but I remember thinking, man, Danny is genuinely just a really nice dude.

      When I saw Tool...they were Amazing!..but it's so obvious "Danny Carry is the only fun 1 to watch"! He makes Tool!..plus there was sooo many drummers there..and I remember after the show...alot of people felt like crap! Because it almost made me quit! Lol..because he's sooo fucken good! Danny can.out play any one in the world!! Because he's the only drummer in the world that can play 9 different poly rhythms at the same f.n..time!! Your mind has to be super smart for that hard shit to.play!!

      I thought the same, being 38 and first hearing a tool record in '05... By that time they had already evolved twice and were finishing off the 10,000 days record. Being able to go back and find the earlier records and then a copy of salival was a great journey into how much a single band can "write", rather than producing the same sound over and over.

    Nothing makes a music artist more happier in an interview then asking about their craft and contributions rather then the same pretentious cliche questions they get asked in most interviews. Danny is such a humble and down to earth guy that's a pleasure to listen to both conversely and musically. Tool is very much the sound and success of Danny's drum work on their albums and especially live. He's not only able to replicate what he does on the records while playing live but manages to add better elements that compliments the song even better then it does in the studio version. Salival is a great example of that as is various live shows on CZcams. May Danny's work live on forever ✌🏽❤️
