Mer de Noms is one of the most perfect albums ever written.
Agreed
Well , that's a good thing being as "Perfect" is in the band's name. Makes sense enough to me. Also, I am definitely poking fun, and not actually being an asshole. Maynard is a lyrical genius and I agree. This is my favorite album. Between Mer De Noms and 10,000 days....you can sense the transformation of Maynard happening in every lyric.
Agreed
@CRIT ROLE yeah, that's probably a tad bit more reasonable.
Agreed
A perfect circle - Orestes
The most meanfull and beautifull lyric i have listen.
Amazing song... Yes, great Idea... ✨🙏✨🙏Please do the song... I'm new here and would really like to hear the comments 🙏 thanx ✨greetings from Vienna
Lost my faith about 33 years ago, and through the power of music I found your reaction channel. By watching you and your family reacting to the music, hearing the personal hardships you all have and are going through, I have started to open my mind again. Not completely closed minded now. I just wanted to let you know you're helping people with more than religious beliefs but with personal dealings. Keep the videos coming.
Awesome! Thank you for sharing that. It’s just the encouragement I needed today. ❤️🙏
O'S!!!
Phenomenal!
Praying you find him again.
Never give up in God.
I would pay money to watch their interaction with Maynard if they ever met.
They won't lol maynard hates people who do this
@@jdewayne1288 that's my point...
Im sure there would be a few underhanded insults thrown around.
Make the people happy and don't offend... Ok you're listening to Maynard James...
Maynard would graciously obliterate them!
@@ryanagee5540 im not even sure they would catch the insults...
I'm not Christian. Actually, I'm not religious at all. Having said that, this has really been an interesting channel for me. I enjoy the insight and I LOVE seeing people react to music I love. I'd really enjoy seeing more APC reactions because they are pretty much the exact band meant for a channel like this. I'm sure people flood the comments with recommendations, but I'm with a number of people wanting to see The Noose on here. Beautiful song. Thanks for all your insights! ✌
Came for the reaction, stayed for the Bible history
Same
That is awesome - Metal plus sound Bible teaching- YES!! Love it!! 👊💀
You guys should totally react to weak and powerless by a perfect circle. Love the videos continue to be blessed.
I love that tune!!
Every song on 13th Step comes from a different point of view of addiction...
This is and Breña and/or Gravity
That song is amazing yes
You guys should react to "The noose" it would be nice 👌
Be a great convo on people that become Holier Than Thou.
..... K?
Have you heard the song?
That's kinda what the song is about.
K.
@Midlifecyclist you're a lot of fun.
Who was Injecting Negativity towards religion? All I said was it would make a good conversation about people that get a holier than thou mind set? Then you chimed in with an out of context comment. like I was somehow being Holier than thou by basically saying, "Hey if they reviewed this certain song they could have a good conversation on a certain mind set."
You say the song doesn't touch on the holier than thou mind set, then what does the "Halo" in the song represent? "Not to pull your halo down".
*Halo; a disk or circle of light shown surrounding or above the head of a saint or HOLY person to represent their HOLINESS.*
If you've every been in treatment, or talked with people that have, you'll know that some people on their road to recovery might take on a "Holier than thou" mind set and as you said they still haven't fully made amends with their past "sins". So they need to back up and realize they are not perfect and never will be. And that's ok. None of us are.
And since you wanna go on about how you are "Holier than thou" when it comes to music, and assuming someones "listening scope", I've been listening to Tool since Undertow came out in 93 when I was in high school to give away my age. Then, I learned more about them, like I've done with all the music I enjoy, and back tracked to Opiate. Then I Bought Every Tool and APC and Puscifer album and EP that has come out. I have also seen all three bands live many, many times. Was even set to see Tool again at Sonic Temple when they took over for Metallica before the show was canceled. I've seen countless live shows.
But, that does not make my opinions on a song or band or whatever more relevant. I never pretend that someones opinion or Interpretation of a song is wrong or mine is more valid then theirs. If nothing else, perhaps it is only my own interpretation of the song, as all music fans are allowed to have. Even the artists that make the wonderful music we enjoy have said as much time and again. In fact, I say your interpretation of the song is correct as well. It is about someone being a hypocrite (people that are Holier than thou are usually hypocrites). It is about people trying to remove themselves from their past and not owning it. It is about making amends, if nothing else, then with yourself. It's anything anyone wants it to be.
The only person that came on this thread with negativity, was you.
Sit back, enjoy the music and let others enjoy the music too.
Sorry, Elisa, that your comment was taken over like this. I've said my peace.
Gotta listen to his other band Puscifer - Humbling River. Great song.
This right here! ^^^
Tool sober
I totally agree!!!! This would be fantastic
Second this. Beautiful song and message.
Puscifer - Apocalyptical
I didn't like it the first time, but it was catchy lol
As a Christian, I’ve grown more of a Christian in my age, and I’m a hard heavy musician. With that said, I need this channel. I often feel guilty for loving and needing this music. Thanks.
I’m a Christian too and I cannot stand contemporary Christian music. It’s like nails on a chalkboard to me. I’ll quote Hank Hill, “You’re not making Christianity better, you’re just making rock and roll worse.”
"Mer de Noms" is French for "Sea of Names". Lyrics were dedicated to people MJK knew.
Uauuu ,such a Nice information, i didnt knew about It.
It is hard to find curiosity like that
i really dig this channel and all it represents...
❤️🙏
This is one of my favorite APC songs. It has so much raw emotion in it that you can literally feel it, almost moved to tears. That was a masterful analysis of that song.
I would like to see comments on Magdalena.
Good luck with that lol
How about “Rev 22:20” by Puscifer? ;)
Really important in your message that Christianity is evidence based, not blind faith. Before I was told that and shown, my faith was not strong
Mer de Noms (sea of names) is a great album, although I'm not sure if it is a concept album or not, I'd have to look that up. Their second album, 13th Step is definitely a concept album, about the 12 steps of recovery, the 13th being regression. I'd betcha you could get an interview with Maynard. He seems a lot more open to interviews the past few years it seems. Just talk about wine and Joni Mitchell, you'll be good. :)
Haha... so true
And DEVO and KISS Lol
This is also one of the reasons I found Jesus again, thank you for doing this, Pastors Rob!
Rob I feel so down right now, :(, something about your aura always cheers me up, you have a good soul.
Glad to be a light in the darkness. 💡
Hope you continue to feel better.
@@roberthoughton7127 I do get depressed sometimes but its people like you that give me hope.
Me: waiting for the song to really start
Rob: a lot calmer then the last one
Me: 😎 wait for it
The spotify generation skips the introduction and moves to the next song before the current one gets to finish.
A Perfect Circle - Orestes
Beautiful song and very deep. I would assume it fails in line with the songs about his mother, but man its so good and so deep, much like most of their songs. Please check it out
Orestes is the best song on the album. It’s about his mother and her health issues.
4:30 me with a big grin on my face knowing whats coming and they dont 😁
The Remedy by Puscifer
Haven't done a Tool song in so long, I've seen every reaction to Maynard that you've made and have been here since the start. But would really love to see more reactions to Maynard.
Legends...........
A perfect circle is not too bad either..
😂
@@roberthoughton7127 all kidding aside, you both always got a great message and perspective on things...Keep up the good work.
Thank you for the kind words. 🙏❤️
YES!! AInt that the truth!! 👊💀
Be it Tool or Perfect Circle such great music
you are a wise Fishermen, Pastor very smart may you catch much fish. Amen
I was listening to this song when I first heard/saw the footage on a news clip
about the 9/11 terrorist attack. In the fog O430am NZ Auckland harbour. First sailing of the day out to waiheke island.
This song gives me the chills..
RIL.
Oh hell yeah nice. I love when you do maynards stuff!!
This is FIRE 🔥🔥🔥
Great song! Amazing message! God bless y’all and much love! LOVEJESUS
I still really want you to react to 'A Perfect Circle - The Doomed'
It's always great to see a Christian perspective to that as there is a huge divide between the scripture and our modern reality
I'm stunned you haven't covered The Doomed by A perfect circle. Especially being a pastor reaction channel. And you've gotta keep knocking out more Tool songs. Please
YES!!!
I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I SAW YOU DID THIS YOU HAVE NO IDEA! Thomas is my favorite APC song, and it's so often overlooked .... It just spoke to me on a spiritual level.
You guys are the best!! I wish all pastors have the same openness and faith as you do, really enjoy your videos, greetings from Costa Rica.
Incredible song, thank you for the content. much love and respect Pastor Rob and son. I hope you and your family are doing great and healthy.
Absolutely beautiful album and song, this song years ago brought me to the story of Thomas in scripture. I've always associated this song creatively to the story, whether it is relevant or not, it displays the beauty of music and perception.
Awesome reaction and insight, as always! Glad your health is back to normal.
I keep coming back to this channel fellas. Something is pulling me to you guys . I really appreciate what you are doing . It’s opening my mind snd soul to things I wasn’t even aware of, words can’t describe my gratitude. 🙏🏻.
With that being said , would love to hear a reaction to -TOOL-Jambi - if you guys get the time. Really though, thanks from the bottom of my heart for this way of learning as well. You have something special here. Have a blessed day.
Lifelong Maynard fan and came across this one night searching. I am someone looking for my religious identity and have been branching out. Love what you guys do and the solid input given by you and your son on Tool, APC, and nearly every video. Keep up the great work and please do more!
This song means the most to me than any other song on this album
This album takes me back to high school days. Some music is like a time machine but I can't change anything.
Also just to add love you guys glad your back to making videos and most importantly your family is well. Keep it up guys wld love to see more Tool and APC.
i as a Tool and A Perfect Circle fan, i love these videos you guys make.
I can’t believe I missed this song. It was really great! Wonderful lyrical and biblical analysis by you and Gauge (as always 🙂)
Love you guys. New Christian here.
Welcome to the family. ❤️🙏
Love this channel. Keep going with APC and TOOL. Staying for the Bible lessons as well!! Thank you, Pastor Rob!!
Jesus said, "a wicked and perverse generation demands proof". When you have proof, there's no faith because faith believes what it doesn't yet see. Without faith, there's no pleasing God. Without faith, there is only doubt
So beautiful
I am not a religious person (personal reasons), I do enjoy your channel very much and how you break down the lyrics. The "Judith" break down was nothing short of amazing. Keep it up guys.
Thank you. 🙏❤️
one of their best songs the end with good headphones is beyond perfect and the louder the better!! Also though I'm not religious it's really good seeing these songs from another perspective.
These guys rock!
YES! Such a great tune!
This song always stood out. Didn't know all the lyrics, thanks.
Definitely react to Parabol+Parabola by tool so good!
I'd just love to hear your thoughts on it :) also the video is interesting but ik yall don't really watch those in videos.
Yes a million times. That song helped me get out of a dark place, still one of my favorites.
@@seleneivy3785 yeah I can see why, the lyrics and song working together hit hard.
would like to see how you guys react to APC's "So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish"
X100 yes. My fav new song off their new album
Bless you!
Loved this!
Hey I just remembered that I saw your Judith video when it came out. That's cool
He truly does use his voice as an instrument...
The song Passive is great, and The Noose
Would love to hear your interpretation of the song "Jesus Christ" by the band Brand New! Regardless of our beliefs, we've got to appreciate what you're doing on the channel. Your input on the song meaning and the teology behind it is outstanding.
Saúl Alves I listen to that song at least a several times a month.
Wow autocorrect Git me. I was just saying I love that song and listen several times a month.
That song is so good
That's such an incredible song.
Interesting... Not a very popular song by APC... But cool none the less
Love this channel
My favourite album bar none, love this track. This album saved my soul.
This song helped me so much. 🖤
Concept album...? “Mer de noms” = sea of names. Every song is a name, Judith, Thomas, etc.
maybe a deeper meaning o_O
Before I see the discussion part of this video I wanted to tell you pastor Rob that it was a pleasure watching you enjoy this song.
Thanks for the heart brother. If it wasn't for the sake of your channel I'd be tempted to ask you to listen to all the Tool and APC albums. There is a lot of growth to be found with these artists my friend 😊
P.s. I enjoyed the discussion as well.
This is my favorite track... The whole album is great...classic
you guys are awesome i seen apc front row at msg nyc there last tour peace love and happiness god bless you guys my favorite Christian bands are third day rich Mullins hillsong hank Williams
Puscifer The Humbling River! Same vocalist also pretty heavy Theology. I think as a fellow Brother you’d enjoy it! Also God bless you guys can’t wait to meet you
About the train 🤣. Made my day
Saw these guys live in London in 2002..outstanding as always..Maynard never disappoints regardless of the band..I'd highly recommend seeing APC or Tool in concert (if we ever get to that point) you will not be disappointed 🙂
I wonder if the fans would even welcome me. I get threats daily from our past videos. I may just go to one and find out. It would be interesting for sure.
Robert Houghton Ah dang..thats too bad. Im not too religious but I enjoy yall's channel and commentary..keep up the good work
Y'all should react to all of their songs lol. Great videos. Looking forward for more.
Hey pastor rob. Satanist here. Love your videos. You know your stuff. You practice what you preach. So I respect you.
Understanding context is the main goal
There is an interview with Maynard and Billy and they talk about it being a concept album
I love watching you two!
Thank you for the love!
They’re amazing!!
@@ChristopherDolby agreed!
A Perfect Circle - The Noose / The Package / Outsider
and if I'm really really lucky... ;)
Pain of Salvation - Tongue of God / Beyond the Pale / Iter Impius / Diffidentia
My favorite song of theirs I think so underrated!
You guys desperately need to do one for Norma Jean. I highly recommend 1,000,000 Watts.
Choooooon! Blinding selection!!
Memphis will be laid to waste y’all
Robots 3 humans 0
@@greybest6949 YES
If you guys want to explore biblical themes being interpreted in a new light, check out The Doomed by A Perfect Circle
This album is one of the best ever made !
A perfect circle has been my favorite band since I was 12 when I lost all my faith. Due to becoming an avid church goer on my own and a downward spiral. Losing my grandfather/ watching him suffer, my father disappearing on me. At that age I learned strength through music. Like slipknot and APC. They helped me to love myself again but I still hated the world. The more I watch you guys pick these songs apart the more I realize how much Maynard was struggling with the same things I was. And the more you guys uncover the more I see that he has something else hidden in his music. I have in the past two years opened myself back up to a higher power. But I couldn't see myself in a church. There is too much conformidy in the different churches. It reminds me too much of politics. I remember first watching you guys review an APC song and thought wow these guys are nothing like the "religious" people I know. I have starting a new relationship, which I believe Maynard did. It will be a personal one. since I have my outlook has definitely changed. As for all the different churches and joining one.. I feel this earth and the land we walk on is his we don't need a building to be his home. When he would rather live in our hearts.. anyways huge spiel. Don't know if you'll be able to read or follow it, but i wanted to say thank you.
Thank you for sharing this. Honored to be a part of your faith journey. ❤️🙏
Where are you guys!!! Are you guys ok? Sending prayers ❤❤❤❤
Glad you came back . Thanks guys ! For all the reactions maybe some more Tool PLEASE ! Culling voices 👃
Thank you for the explanation ! Chills
Glad to see you've recovered from the Covid. And may I suggest a song to analyze: Bad Religion - Sorrow (it's about the Book of Job)
Clicked. Liked.
I've been waiting for you to do "The Doomed" by a perfect circle. Love to hear your take on it. I see it as a commentary on society. References the Beatitudes from the sermon on the mount. "What of the pious, the pure of heart, the peaceful?
What of the meek, the mourning, and the merciful?" Etc. And seems to show that society has replaced them with the 7 deadly sins "Blessed are the envious
Bless the slothful, the wrathful, the vain
Blessed are the gluttonous"
You guys are beating this horse to death.
JAMBI by Tool is another great experimental song that gets you rocking, but also has more of Maynard's spiritual struggle lyrics
Mer de Nom, is one of the most cleanest sounding albums ive ever heard. Such a brilliant album. Highly recommend 3 libras or The Hollow.
If I may make a recommendation for what you guys should react to, Three days Grace never to late. Love you guys keep going strong my dudes
Probably not in the list of songs I'd recommend but I look forward to any apc or tool reactions by you guys.
Bride... Everybody knows my Name!
Boom!! ❤️
I think "toe to toes" by Mastodon would be a great song for you to react too... falls right up your ally. Peace be with you.
"Behold the Crown" or "Lost in the Static" by After the Burial and "Deceiver" or "Out if Control" by The Ghost Inside
Would love to see a reaction to C.A.N.C.E.R by Architects! Incredibly powerful song, brought us all to tears
Would love to see a reaction video for anything from the band, nodes of ranvier. Im not the most religious guy out there, but that band always keeps me moving.
That song was lit
A lot of tool/ a perfect circle albums are meant to run together. So when it sounds like there’s more it’s because it leads into the next song
Bob's double tempo bobbin' 😅
If you don’t do Spiritbox Holy Roller soon I’m going to go and find and wrestle a bear, but only once. Since you’re the best reaction channel I know you’re not scared of Courtney LaPlante and you’ll save me so I won’t have to wrestle a bear once.
