Tool really is rare in mainstream. I mean that kind of jam band that can be so off melodic but still keep its composure ya know. I mean only thing I can recall being as popular and powerful is like what Pink Floyd. Not to mention tool is metal more so so even crazier it had the mainstream success it does. Not to mention Danny is a fucking savage drummer.

The band is entirely composed of geniuses, no doubt. Love that you appreciate that

You should check out TOOL - "Parabol/Parabola" next; very moving track.

Am 53 year old man introduced to tool just a few short years ago life's never been the same, thanks Dion and paige

This is so cool . I love sitting with someone and actually see them enjoy the music. It makes it that much better knowing that someone else gets down . Tool is always relevant

I like the way you react without interrupting the song. Others should learn from this.

I've always loved this one. Makes it feel like you can do whatever you want. As long as you KEEP GOING!

You instinctively picked up on an interesting dynamic Maynard used for the lyrics. Every syllable used is based on the Fibonacci sequence. Do more Tool! If you want to hear one of the most beauiful, touching and profound love Songs ever written (to a mother) listen to Wings for Marie part 1 & 2 👍😊

Tool are the modern day masters of progressions. They are doing today what Led Zeppelin did back in the 60's and 70's. Great reaction to a great band. Keep them coming. Maybe try Vicarious or Right in Two.

Late to the party, but as a heads up... At the beginning of the song the "drums" you hear is actually a heartbeat. Slowly the drums mix with that heartbeat. The "Blast" of the guitar after the growth of the heartbeat/beat is meant to represent birth. The rest of the song follows the same thematic elements of Birth, Growth, Ascendance, and Transcendence... The Fibonacci Sequence is also know by the moniker "The Golden Ratio" and for good reason.... This ratio determines how many living things grow. The most easily understandable example is the Nautilus Shell, but many things grow based off of that ratio, including plants. Thematically it makes perfect sense, and is a genius move to use that ratio in creating the music and lyrics. A perfect and literal example of the phrase "art imitating life". Welcome to Tool. Keep going.

Nice to see young people finding Tool...There's so much to search for in the prog genre...All the secrets and lessons of human angst and existence are contained there in....Genesis, YES, Crimso, sabbath, ELP, VDGG, P.Floyd, Tull, etc etc etc etc....

Tool passed me by as I was having my kids when they hit - for some reason I thought they were a death metal band then I saw the video of them at download 2019 and I bought the albums. I listened to the 4 albums once and thought they were average except for lateralus. 4 month later I listen to tool on my way into work, on my way home from work, when I walk my dogs when I mow my lawn. When I relax I watch tool live and reaction videos. My wife has gone from moaning about me watching sport to watching tool. When you have 4 genius musicians who care what every single note of their music sounds like and take time over it thus is what it is possible to achieve

You should react to more Tool songs

Song is an absolute masterpiece

Just discovered your channel! I appreciate that you recognized the progression of Tools music! Incorporating polyrhythms and Maynard's voice an an instrument in itself. I've been a fan since 91 when I first heard them on independent radio in Houston. They have matured so much since, but despite the years, they have never lost what makes them so unique!

Love watching you experience Tool. Got the privilege see them live in 1997 in Columbus Ohio. They also put on a captivating live performance. Love it!!

Definitely one of my favorite Tool songs.. they are great live! I've been a fan since the second I heard them in the early 90's, this is what I grew up with lol

Mana: YES me: I'm glad I'm not the only one who yells that when Danny kicks it up

As a TOOL fan I love your channel...keep up the quality! whats interesting is when you finish a TOOL song start it over immediatly and see how far your journey went in just one song. This song is a perfect example of the different emotions you have at the beginning and end of the track

Tool loves their polyrhythms. Good catch!

I listen to every Tool song several times. I try to listen to each instrument. That takes at least four times. Then I listen more to see how they collaborate with one another. They’re all very deep. I’ve been listening to them for about twenty years now and still listen to them on a daily basis. Most pop and country music just makes me shake my head in disappointment. Yet everyone else around seems to love the shit.

subbed!! MORE TOOL! Love your reaction!

My favorite band :) You should check out Lost Keys + Rosetta Stoned (together) or Third Eye by them!

That Scandinavian accent so freaking lovely. Cheers from another Tool fan that grew up listening to Undertow.

This great feeling of someone else likes and appreciate our same band ... and with Tool there is no chance to not get a mindblowing reaction

I love that you experience the music with your soul not just your ears.

Really well done! I might recommend The Grudge or Jambi for the next song. And on the Meshuggah thoughts I totally agree. They actually toured with Tool a while back and I was lucky enough to see them, hell of show. Anyway good luck, cheers 🍻 Edit: dunno why but just felt like sharing lol, I remember the drummer of Meshuggah would come out and play on Third Eye with Danny sometimes too. Really amazing stuff.

That's where Adam got into polyrhythms for the 10,000 days album. From Meshuggah.

Tool are like the musical equivalent of a Ferrari belting it around a race track (probably the nurburgring) in the hands of a race driver, power pace, timing beauty agility, acceleration and stopping power, masterful control dynamics on a crazy level, and raw emotion attached to being taken for the ride, that's right!!!! YEP!!! Tool put you in the passenger seat but don't fear the Person (band) behind the wheel is an absolute legend its your lucky day They've won the WRC championship 3 times or something so strap in let the Journey begin, You wont crash although at times it may seem like you will

New sub here... great channel with great reactions. Also your taste in music is fantastic

This song is a fucking wild ride for me every time! The range of emotion it takes me through is just... well it's just fuckin great!

Tool has a long story ,is basicly the background of my teenages years and there's so much love in the air I can almost smell the colors lol

I love you already! 😍

As Tool gets older and maybe they aren't able to tour as much, I would love if they would go back and make videos for a lot of their older songs... Hopefully at that point they will release some pro-shot concerts since I know they have filmed some of them.

I love your reactions! I wish you react to "all that could have been" by nine inch nails ! (Actually, more of NIN could be great!) Keep going Mara! Big Fan of you !! Greetings from Costa Rica!

Sat Nam Mana 🙏🤘, legendary song - love your reaction, will definitely explore your channel. Oftopic, a lot of metalheads are following that New age stuff to wear rings around index finger or thumb. Our feet and hands are very senstive and without knowing certain things one should not wear metal rings around fingers - particularly index finger and thumb, it will atract certain energies which you will not be able to handle - long term it will impair your body & mind wellbeing, as well as the development of the consciousness. Just a friendly advice, take care 🙏

Justin plays the bass like a guitar.

The chorus changes from 9/8 to 8/8/ to 7/8.And 987 is the 16th number of the fibonacci sequence, crazy right.

tool has always been my favorite member of tool.

I'd bet that if you checked, that "beat" you hear so well in the beginning = a actual recording of a heartbeat

I feel this so much lyrically, half of my life is overthinking

Masterpiece

Given your reaction to this and Wings for Marie, I think you would really appreciate their cover of No Quarter (Led Zeppelin). Lore says that they were commissioned to create a cover song for a tribute album, but showed up with a 11 minute cut and the produces nearly shat. Ended up in a Tool album instead and it is the single greatest cover song ever done. Love your channel. Keep up the good work! -BB

I second the others requesting Parabol/Parabola and 46&2. Do a search for the song meanings, including Lateralus; the lyrics are as deep as the Mariana Trench! Did you get the link between the syllable sequence in the first verse and the 'spiral out' at the end? It's all about the Fibonacci Sequence. There's also a link between the colours in the lyrics with alchemy and the order they occur is (supposedly) how we develop vision as newborns. I said deep...yeah, that deep! Loving your channel by the way. You've got a great appreciation for the complexities of great music.

The beat is something everyone should recognize ... a womb.

Best song ever

Good reaction to a title track of an album that an ATF for me. Also cool hat👍😎

I love your reactions you are too cute lol

The best song ever written, period.

The song that made me start buying CDs :)

Lateralus was a very good start, but some other choices are too advanced and much harder to appreciate at first. Forty Six & 2, Sober, Schism, H, Vicarious, Jambi & AEnima are the essentials. After those you should listen to the much more complex songs like Third Eye. Lateralus is about life, starting at birth, and growing and learning throughout your life. Black then white is what I see. That's birth and what a baby first sees, only in black & white, but then other colors you come to see! 'In my infancy' Enjoy!

Tool is on a different level than everything else on this planet music wise. 46&2, Sober, Right in Two, Stinkfist, Schism, The Pot, Vicarious, Prison Sex, Parabola, etc etc etc....

i think im in love:)

everything that exists, it also does in the fibonachi spiral of possibilities, so keep going spiral XD

MORE PLS! If you like this song, you will like Parabol+Parabola, Right In Two, Wings For Marie part 1&2, and If you like metal rock, Ticks and Leeches is something you would LOVE!

your Dutch and I love it just for that reason lmao 1 of my favourite bands are Dutch...... FOCUS.

If you want go for Tool you have to do 46&2 i think ;)

Pushit live off of Salival is pure magic, as is the whole disk.

I love TOOL. The next TOOL you should listen to is 46+2, and you should also try RAMMSTEIN. They have great pyrotechnics, and put on a awesome concert. Thank you.

I'm not sure if you dig other progressive flavours other than Tool but I found hard to believe you'll not find something tasty on this list: -Symphony X - When all is lost, Nevermore, Walls of Babylon etc - Myrath - Tales of the sand, Believer, Silent cries etc - Psycrence - Reflection - Vanden Plas - Holes in the sky - Redemption - Walls, Damaged etc - Dream Theater - In the name of God, Home, Under a glass moon, Leraning to live, The root of all evil etc

Here for the tool

REALLY REALLY reccomend you try Tool's "Right In Two" if you like this. In my opinion that is their greatest song. You have to pay attention to the lyrics.

Mmm:) love a new tool can even if they don't know it

subbed.

Its scientifically impossible to not sway your head when he is singing about riding the spiral.

This song is Tools masterpiece

Well, putting aside the fact that you are gorgeous, you really DO know wtf is going on in the song. React to every Tool song!

Check out something from the album Undertow.......Crawl away, Flood, or Swamp Song!

nice reaction

I would like to see you react to "Sober" by tool, very trippy Video as well ;)

You closed your eyes and missed what the video said on the fibonacci sequence. Lol bet you know now.

Reflection

it's heart like

keep digging mana... trance is the right word in my experience anyway... j.

Independantly of the modern instruments these polyrhythms (even in the singing) makes me think about some kind of medieval-oriental-Indian music. I might be wrong tho.
