Quote from Carey on clicks: “It's a sad thing when almost every band you see isn't playing doing that, it's the clicks and backing tracks that are keeping time. I've never played to a click on stage in my life. You have to put yourself in this environment that's vulnerable and just fucking go off in the moment.”

Mmm, I'm of the mind that it's not necessary to throw shade at bands who play to clicks. It CAN be a crutch if bands let it, but I think sometimes we let ourselves think that using it is "cheating" when it really isn't. If you can't play, a click isn't gonna make you that much better. Actually, it takes certain amount of skill to play to one and not sound dull and robotic. That said, I 1000% agree that if you can play this tight at this level of complexity without a click track, that definitely deserves monumental praise.

I highly recommend you dive into that one. John Kew has done an amazing cover of that one if you want to see the drumming, however if you just want to hear the song for what it is, you can just listen to the studio track.

Fear Inoculum is Danny playing with the rest of the band! No one can get even close! He's not human!

Tool doesn't play to a click. Danny Carey IS the click.

A birthing of a TOOL fan. 30 years of excellence!

Danny is an octopus God in a man's body. 2 things to note about this video are Danny's dynamic control and precision. Danny plays in tympani fashion the way he plays notes on his tuned drums. Every note is played exactly where he planned it and exactly as loud as he wanted it. Also, the part at 14:50 where you go back to marval at the polymetric section, is a 3/16 played over a 4/4 where the flat, hand switching triplet resolves back on the 1 after 3 phrases. THEN he begins introducing new elements of the kit into the rhythm until there are 5, before reducing them to 4, then 3, then 2. That build up is mathematically amazing. Being able to write and play something complicated that sounds ridiculous is one thing, but being able to write and play something so complicated that sounds so simple is on a whole other level. I love watching these reaction videos. You can usually tell by the thumbnail weather someone is going to watch this and think " that was cool, Danny is a badass" and have no idea what just happened, or weather they're going to be counting the whole time and still getting lost ending in absolute amazement at Danny, the octopus God.

“You’ve now made me feel as if I know absolutely nothing about drums, and I’m gonna have to start learning about drums all over again” I hear that! I’m a professional chef. I started in 1993 as a pastry chef, and worked that for twelve years. Then I jumped over to the other side and had been going on that for another 8 years. Having knowledge of both pastry and hot food, I thought I was pretty well versed. I had basically fallen into repetition... I sort of accidentally ended up eating at a 3 star Michelin restaurant (Manresa) and was fretting about how much it was costing me before I got there. I was maybe three courses (out of 17 total) into my experience when I realized I no longer thought that over $300 for just me was too much $. I was flattened, and I felt like I’d been gut punched. I was in the same exact place there as you were hearing/watching this mastery, which is the audio version of three star Michelin dining for progressive metal. Tool as a band is in the same place as the best restaurants in the world. Many people don’t know about that kind of food, actual or audio, and are “satisfied” with blue box Mac and Cheese (pop?!)! Anyway, count yourself blessed man! I was after going to that meal, it changed my life, and my career... I was sooo complacent! It’s awesome when we can be inspired to the next level by the hard win talents of people who have been able to push past the norm to something special! An excellent reaction video sir, I echo everyone else, and you got my sub. I’d also love to hear what you think about Invincible!

I think Danny is tapping into other levels of consciusness, or better, unconsciusness. He spent his entire life practicing like 6/8 hours at day mastering rudiments and odd Times, that now all these things are part of his unconscious circuits of his brain. This is how, for example, kids learn to walk or speak. He is not controlling time anymore, he is just flowing in the river of time, and this is why he seems so relaxed and he can improvises fills around the time signature and orchestrations in the middle of electronic pads part. In fact the live versions are allways different from the studio's.

He recorded the entire album without a metronome & on analog tape. He is the best of all time.

This song is a showcase for Danny's talents. The master of polymetric time signatures. The heir to Neil Peart. What's more amazing is he is 58 yrs. old at the time of this recording. Tool is simply an experience and Danny Carey is simply one of the best drummers alive today.

More amazing than this is going to see them in concert and watching Danny do this for over 2 hrs, and do a 10 minute solo in between while the other guys gave a break. Had a great seat where I could see everything he was doing, blown away.

“Is he playing to a click?” Danny is the click lol

I can't believe you actually called out the time signature of 33/16 on the first listen. The main riff is usually written as 5/8 + 7/4 + 7/4, which would be 33/8. That is impressive that you spotted the 33 so easily considering how unusual of a count it is.

No click for TOOL, just in ear monitors for him and that’s it. Thats the way they’ve always done things. Also he had to put his high hat in front because all the pads to his left he’s incorporated in his kit. Great analysis!!

This might be the best Pneuma reaction I’ve seen! 🙏🏻

I appreciate the honest assessment of the drum playing! I will clue you in on a recent interview with Maynard. He has said that he doesn’t write in 4/4, more in the 6/8 area, because he doesn’t breathe in a 4/4. He referenced Joni Mitchell because she didn’t write in 4/4. Tool sound is different because they are.

Welcome to the Tool Army bro.. I've seen this 30 odd times, maybe more! Which then took me into reactions and your video, it's great that Tool are finally opening a lot more eyes to their musical genius, the best reaction I've seen hands down. Definitely give this album a go it will just shine a light on every other they have put out, enjoy the journey 👍

Solid reaction. I've watched dozens of reactions to this piece since it was released, and yours has to be the most honest & knowledgeable of the lot - thanks for sharing.

Definitely do some more Carey. There is so much more to sink your teeth into. Drumming wise 46&2 is another good one to watch, there are plenty of pro shot live footage of that one. The ending to the song the grudge is another behemoth.

Danny is big into sacred geometry. I’d imagine numbers and rhythms are especially easy for him. As it shows.

Best reaction video. Made my morning. Thanks.

Tool is a music you listen to each instrument firstly then all together to understand the magic behind.

Great video brother. Im a happy subscriber now. 👍 I’m impressed that you identified the 33/16 time sig. You’re the only one I’ve seen that was able to pick up on it. It’s also impressing that you noticed how intricate his polymeter is during the instrumental. In the last section check out his right hand. All double strokes throughout the entire instrumental with the right hand is hard enough, but in the last section he goes from playing 5 drums with the right to 4, then 3, then 2 to create a walls are closing in/tightening/tension building affect, and then boom! Any and all drummers out there can learn a ton from that part alone. You CAN in fact create these types of moods with percussion. Also, he never plays to a click. It would foul them up! 😂 Great video!

Mate, this was such an awesome and honest reaction. One of the best I've seen. I absolutely love when established and experienced musicians absorb and recognise greatness. I love it! Yeah, Danny is mental! Great work mate. Legend! MIND BLOWN!

There’s no alive like DC. The great Neil Peart was an inspiration for Danny.

Danny has some very delicate and creative drumming, whenever I see his passion and creativity it leaves me nothing less but inspired and very calm inside. It's a bit meditative, trance like. He surely has a style that is very unique to him, I could listen to probably a lot of drummers blindly and I would hear out DC simply because of his unique drumming. Maybe you could call it DC'esque, he deserves it. There are really great drummers out there, he for sure can be considered one of them. You do not have to react, but I ask of you to watch two other drumcams: Triad and Lateralus (first one for this meditative experience and crazy creativity; later one for his absolutely mindboggling climax) Both these Drumcams are shit qualitywise, but that still is not able to ruin the experience watching him drum and learn from. Keep it up. And no worries if Tool has never been your thing, that's the thing with art, I never got much out of Mozart, yet I like Beethovens more "chaotic" pieces or Handel's baroque.

Here's a couple of pieces you might not have heard from Mozart that are more "Beethovian" in their style: This is a prelude and fugue (the fugue has four independent melodies constantly interweaving though one another at once that a achieve a sort of chaotic fusion). Beethoven personally copied this work out by hand and studied it, as he did with many of Mozart's works. kzread.info/dash/bejne/gHh_xtSKl9PFoZM.html One of two "dark" outlier piano concerto Mozart wrote.

When Beethoven first heard this piece, at the end of it he remarked to his colleague: "we shall never be able to do anything like that." kzread.info/dash/bejne/f65hramNipPcotY.html Cheers!

@@olly8453 Thank you for the pieces, I am indeed not too experienced in pieces of Mozart as it requires a lot of work getting into the works of great componists. Just never really got into Mozart, and when I tried, I just couldn't really deal with it, so I stuck more to the old baroque componists which Bach of course is another great one even though I find myself listening to Handel more. Beethoven I can only really enjoy or not even consider to put it on. Pretty mooddependend. I will give your suggestions a look, for the sake of discovering that I am missing out something I would regret. 🙏

​@@Spasstiful What composer/band I listen to very much depends on my mood as well; anything from Beethoven, Bach, Handel, Dvorak, Chopin, Shostakovich, or Tool :P -- as well as many more. Happy to share :) Hope you find something appealing out of it -- but if not! Tis all good as well. I know a lot of people who say they just can't get into Tool, but that doesn't stop me from trying every gateway angle possible to see if I can get them interested :P Even so, there are just some people that it just isn't their thing -- never hurts exploring though!

Love your humility, and yes, you have to get it. You just got it. TOOL !!!

I love this I love it when, especially a musician, hears tool after years of seeing their shirts and knowing about them but never really knowing, love it when they see, and realize. Tool and especially Danny are on another level

Got a sub today. You for sure need to listen to Fear Innoculum. It's drum porn. Hell it's almost porn porn. Btw I suggest listening to Invincible next. then Descending then Chocolate Chip Trip then Fear Inoculum then make sure to save 7empest for the end. Get you self some diapers. They won a grammy for that one.

TOOL porn

new album is another masterpiece. would suggest 7empest or Invincible were stand out tracks for me.

You are great in reviewing.. I love your amazingness, you know so much! And you get confusioned. I love your video, totally love it!

The best reaction, i watching this many times

That was some good respect you gave Danny and the band there, it was a good watch. I get it with the "not a huge Tool fan" thing. They can be a bit tedious for me sometimes, but they do so many things really well, especially stylistically. I'll try to listen to an album and get a little bored, but then I'll go see them live and loose my s**t over em again. I dunno, but one things for sure, my drumming and songwriting style is laced with their influence

Spoken mature for a 26 year old ... in terms of appreciation of the creativity

Best reaction I have seen to this clip.

This is so fucking amazing. Never heard of them, but this fragment really strikes. Lovin' it at first sight

The thing is about trying to get Danny's timing down is that exactly in this song and many others you can't count the total beats. This because of his polyrhythm he is playing a 4/4 a 7/8 and a11/16 all at the same time. I'm not completely sure about those times but I do know that, that is why us fans call him the octopus.

It's interesting, I'm not really sure time signature *matters* to a Tool song. It's like instead of picking a time signature and fitting a verse into it, they write the verse they want to play and then fit time signatures around it. Like Justin wants to play this specific groove and that happens to be in 7/4 9/4 across 4 measures and Danny is just like "cool, I'll rock an alternating 6/8 4/3 until you're done" or something.

I've been watching reaction videos to this song for months, and this is the best one yet!

What time signature is that? Danny Carey... "all of them."

The intensity from the opening beats until the end is this undulating crescendo of awesomeness. It starts perfectly and continues to the the ending. The journey is awesome.

No click around here. Lol. They don’t use it. The man isn’t human. You nailed it. There’s unbelievable musicality in his compositional style. Everything blends with the other instruments and vocals so beautifully. He’s not providing beats as a base for the other instruments. It’s a dance

Watching smart lads struggle at counting this makes me feel less a dmbfck...

I agree as a 45 year old I had a buddy who I went into coast guard boot camp with who was a huge Tool fan and I didn’t get it but now maybe with a more refined sense of what great music is I now appreciate them a whole lot.

Great review. Glad you appreciate Danny's insane talent. I can't think of anyone else being on the same level.

This is the best tutorial on the middle section of this song that I've seen. At the 8:28 mark he catches on something that I think most people miss about this part. Danny cycling through 5 drums, then 4, then 3 etc as a way to build tension for the upcoming dbl bass part. You feel the tension building but not necessarily know what is causing it. It's a great explanation of how he does this. It's a great tutorial on this section of the song. I think you'll enjoy it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqCN18egXdbFZ8o.html
