    Re: 9:00 Truth. A Tool fan wants to share/introduce someone to the band - "Let me have 13 minutes of your undivided, fully engaged attention. No, you can't talk, you just have to listen." Many people don't have the attention span to engage with the music on that time scale. This tune brought me to tears the first time I rode it. The sense of loss I felt at the first faux ending at about 7 mins was unbelievably deep, and the elation that followed as it continued without a pause was equally high. The second faux ending with the measure of silence, again, felt like a friend had died, when they kicked back in for the last 2 minutes I was legit screaming "YEAH!!!!! IT'S NOT OVER!!!!" while driving alone down the highway. So filling.

      macgonzo I agree with you that’s what this song is about it’s a heartbreaking and beautiful song. But one of the things that I find amazing about it is that it applies to so many other things too. I’m only 24 but this song really hits me because I find it to be the story of anyone who feels like they’re falling out with the world around them. Like they no longer have a place because how they’ve spent their life is no longer how the world works and they’re being forced to either adapt or fall away. That’s how I feel on a daily basis. The more the world changes the less connected I feel to it and society and I find myself always trying to figure out how the life I’ve lived for the short time I’ve lived it can be fit into it now.

There were a few times where, I personally, stood there in awe of just how tight these guys sound live. Then add all the visual effects.

    Tool are masters at dynamics and polyrhythms. It doesnt sound like a jumbled up mess because they understand musically where to land on the "ONE" after separate parts and time signatures. Being a musician and percussionist in bands...that is EXTREMELY difficult to do. It is so easy to get lost. These guys have mastered it. They hardly ever hang out in 4/4. Love it. No words.🤘

  • @GaudyGabriev
    @GaudyGabriev Před rokem +5

    It did happen to me straight up.
    I had never gotten into Tool. Had listened to all their albums at least once back 2 or 3 years ago, but it was a "it's cool, but doens't quite do it for me" kind of reaction. Strange given that it's a style of music I really enjoy in general.
    About a month and a half ago I was in the gym, didn't feel like listening to anything in particular and thought "let's do some Tool". Played the first album. And sure enough, it was a combo of me having to do nothing else other than paying attention to the music and that it sounded damn good in those headphones, but they went right fucking into my brain.
    Since then I've been on a Tool rampage listening to them like 75% of the time I'm listening to music (which is many hours of the day). And I've both listened to and grabbed my guitar to play Pneuma don't even wanna know how many times.
    In a matter of a day Tool jumped into my top favourite bands. I'ts quite insane how great their music can sound once they do click.

  • @DerekGatlin

      Truth. Maynard has said in multiple interviews over the years that he pretty much just checks in with the guys every now and again. "Hey, got anything sort-of-finished?"
      "No"
      "Okay, cool. See you next week"
      When they do get something done, Maynard tries to write lyrics and melodies that capture the same feeling the instrumentals do. Damned good.

I first watched this review the day you released it and I keep coming back to it as your review of it is a bit like Tool’s music. It’s stands up to the test of time too. Same in other reviews going back to Iron maiden, Rush, Opeth etc etc.

    5. Invincible (Their comeback. Its about the notion of death)
    4. Aenema (I hate. Its the pinnacle of that era of their evolution)
    3. Jimmy (The most personal of all of Maynards performances)
    2. H. ( arguably Maynards best written song)
    1. Lateralus (Its timeless art)

    So refreshing to see an intellectual, thought-out, and very detailed review of a Tool song...especially from ppl newer to the Tool world and culture. Said it best when you said this is not for casual listeners. That is their intention. Their music is far beyond surface deep. You guys gave a thorough review which shows your obvious intelligence. Tip of the the hat to you fellas. I'll definitely watch more reviews from you guys.
    Note: No coincidence that it was a 40 min review on a Tool song.

    Ive been listening to TOOL religiously for the past 25+ years and I cant pick a favourite track because there are so many I love. Ive recently been diagnosed with severe depression and PTSD and this track just hits different, especially when im in the right environment. I like to run a bath, light some candles and pump this through my headphones and let it take me along the journey. Forever a TOOL fan. Much love and peace to all ✌🏼

      Don't be pissed had to chime in that that literally is like the least favorite lyrics in album to me same with culling voices "pointing fingers" type shit since he's already said this type of thing many times over the years. Have to be honest lyrics for a lot of this album didn't seem to touch me like that it sounds like emo shit at times. Honestly tho this CD is still strait up fire n I fiend Descending Pneuma n Fear that r all perfection to me no flaws or cornyness whatsoever. N when I say CORNY I just mean repetitive or whatever n in comparison to their other stuff so basically corny for them still means A just not A++++ their that good.
