Then you have Brad staring blankly at the lyrics like he's trying to read braille with his eyes.

For Lex's question about time signatures, she is describing both polymeters and polyrhythms. Polymeters are when the time signature changes, and yes this song is one of the best examples of that as it has dozens of meter changes. The main riff that she alluded to constantly switches between 5/8 and 7/8 (though you could technically rewrite that as 12, it doesn't really feel like the song is in 12 so most people wouldn't do that), but there are some others in there as well. The other thing is polyrhythm, which is when they are playing multiple time signatures over each other at the same time. Tool does this a lot, and there are some parts of this song that do it as well like the ending breakdown when he sings "between supposed lovers" where the drums go to 4/4 while the guitars stay in that weird 5/8-7/8, but that is not what is going on in the main riff that she hummed.

The best way to conceptualize the time is as Duples and Triples. The 8th note remains steady. Count "One and Two and uh One and Two and Three and". One bar of 5/8 (one Duple, one Triple) then one bar of 3/4 (three Duples) is how I would write it out. Quarter, Quarter, Eighth | Quarter, Quarter, Quarter. I suppose it could be 11/8 but why? lol. In "classical" world I played in, I call these "8th not pulse" songs, and the composer arranger writes them as double and triple 8th notes.

As for her query at the end, I'd say like the main riff does indeed go back and forth between 5/8 and 7/8 like she thought.

This band is a MUST SEE live show. When they come out on stage an entirely different atmosphere takes over the building/stadium. The visuals are incredible, they play amazingly, song composition is great. Every time I've seen them I just get this feeling like "oh man, I'm really just sitting in on these 4 great musicians jamming their weird songs." That's not really a great description, but the 30+ other bands I've seen live don't have the same atmosphere. It's weird. It could also be the mushrooms though 🙃 people will look back on Tool in 30 years like people look back on Pink Floyd or Zeppelin.

09:20, I have been a musician for 25+ years and been a Tool fan for almost as long, they are doing both. There are some points where they are blending different timings, so a pattern of 3 over 4 just as an example (when Lex asks about 2 different tracks at the same time, not 2 different tracks, but 2 different timings), but also The base timing of this track is an "odd Meter" meaning an odd number of beats, which is what gives it a more complex feel , and it is harder to play such timings than a straight 4 or 2 beat pattern, and they shift from different patterns and timings, so from a 3 beat int a 4 beat and then a 5 beat cycle, just to make up an example, But in Tools case they sometimes add further levels with patterns that go over several cycles, so the drummer and bass are playing a 4 beat rhythm, but the drummer might be playing around his toms in a 12 beat cycle that take 3 of the usual 4 beats to complete (12 /3 = 4 and the drums and bass are playing a 4 beat rhythm) Its all mathematical in a way. In fact Tool (and Meshuggah and Dillinger Escape Plan, and Botch, and Converge all) spearheaded "Math Metal" in mid 90's to early 00's.. Math metal is a type of metal that varies a lot in sound but the common themes are these mathematical style rhythm patterns and melodies that fit them. This style or elements of it, have become a HUGE part of modern metal and Heavy guitar music and the bands I have mentioned were the Pioneers of it, and all brilliant in there on right, and all very very different. There are now hundreds if not thousands of bands and musical projects that have at least some in not many of these elements in that were inspired by teh bands I listed and Tool

Tool fans are the worst

Lex: "Their music is so fantastic!" Yes it is. Yes it is. I CAN NOT wait to see them in concert next week. Expecting awesomeness.

My first thought when I see these 1st time tool reaction videos is - these two have not only wandered into the restricted section of the library but a secret room inside the restricted section. These songs are not 15 minute wonders. They are masterpieces - everything is purposeful and perfect. From the single open D at the end of the bass intro that frames the whole song to the lyrics. 3 words - "Between Supposed Lovers" - is just the most perfectly efficient way to summarize that "how did we get to this point" feeling of a crumbling relationship. No Fat, No Fluff, just pure quality

YES 😂😂🤣🤣. This is my Favorite Tool Song. This song has a very intriguing time signature. The verses can be counted as 12/8 (12 eighth-note beats to a measure) but it is actually split up into recurring measures of 5/8 (5 eighth-note beats to a measure) and 7/8 (7 eighth-note beats to a measure). In this way, the standard 12/8 time signature is split into two parts, a "Schism" thus the theme of the music matches the theme of the lyrics. 😁❤🤘

Absolute masterpiece by Tool. Aenima, Lateralus and 10,000 Days are all worth listening to from front to back.

@mori1bund

2 жыл бұрын

I would add Fear Inoculum to the list. My favorite Tool album. :)

Yes, this song changes time signatures a LOT. In the sequence you are talking about, they are basically flipping back and forth from 5/8 and 7/8. So the bass for example is playing two extra notes in the same time frame, every other time. (you don't always have to play extra notes, but in this case he is) This kind of creates that layered feeling and slight Yo-Yo effect, which makes it feel like the song is speeding up and slowing down rapidly over and over again.

i like how lex appreciates the nuance of tool music

The best way to conceptualize the time is as Duples and Triples. The 8th note remains steady. Count "One and Two and uh One and Two and Three and". One bar of 5/8 (one Duple, one Triple) then one bar of 3/4 (three Duples) is how I would write it out. Quarter, Quarter, Eighth | Quarter, Quarter, Quarter. I suppose it could be 11/8 but why? lol.

Lex you are right on with changing time signatures. Listen to Lateralus it uses the Fibonacci sequence.

Yes Lex, they use both multple "time signatures/meters" after one another AND also "polyrythms" which are different signatures at the same time (drums counting in 4 and guitars in 5 for example)

Tool=(1/3Rush+1/4Pink Floyd+1/4Led Zeppelin+1/6Metallica)🤘🖖✌️That is what they reminded me of BEFORE 10,000 Days and Fear Inoculum. On those last two they took that recipe(like all the best ingredients from each one of them)and truly became their own true TOOL self. Original, distinctive, mysterious and HEAVY, although light when necessary for the song. But yeah, by far one of the best bands around today, and to see in concert.🥇❤️👍🎸🥁🎹🎤👌

Syncopation is the term you're looking for. :) Tool are masters at it, as are bands like Rush, Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, & ELP.

Music has a time signature. Pop songs and straight rock songs and most country is in 4/4 or 4 beats per measure which makes it easy to tap our feet, it’s a simple groove. This song is alternating between odd time signatures. The song begins with two bars of 5/4, followed by one bar of 4/4, followed by bars of alternating 5/8 and 7/8, until the first interlude, which consists of alternating bars of 6/8 and 7/8.

Yup. The Best Prog metal band of our Time. GENIUS!!!

Pink Floyd seems to be the one band and rightfully so that even Brad just soaks in and lex as well. I just see his heart is in the material but probably not as keen to letting it all go at a metal show or just shutting down the thought process for music sake ha

Tool is performing in Florida in February, one of best concerts you will ever see.

Lex’s shrooms definitely kicked in in the middle of the song and then she latched onto the key behind Tool’s sound. The way they layer and shift time signatures! Nice! Brad just smoked some Salmon River OG and went down the rabbit hole with the lyrics. Great reaction!

Hey what's up guys! Greeting from South Florida! Tool is awesome. I was just watching some live videos from their new tour this year, incredible. You guys rock! God bless you! Peace!

Tool is touring right now. You should catch a show as I don’t imagine they’ll be touring too much longer. And yes, their time signatures are wild.

Tool is polyrhythmic. You can’t really tap your foot to it. It’s smart and so well designed.

you have to tap, you just cant count!

The grout between the wall tiles! LOL

Omg you guys are awesome I love Lex throwing all these questions at Brad at the end and he just says Yes! Love that

I was hoping you'd react to the official video. It's a total trip!

I generally don't recommend Tool's official videos for first time listeners - WAY too distracting. They are so trippy you usually have to either focus on the music or the video, but can't do both, and the focus needs to be on the music for a first time listener. They are weird enough sometimes to be off-putting also. It would be a shame to have the experience ruined because you didn't appreciate the video.

@@garyco766 While this is true, it's still fun to watch first-timer's jaws drop. 😁

Yes!! Signature change! They find groove rather than just driving ahead. Its math rock from the roots of the likes of rush. These guys live is a whole thing. Treat yourselves!

Oh, I loved her reaction. She is right and she is very good. She got it. They do very complicated signature changes, but it's not just the signatures. Everything is complicated. Music, lyrics, energy. Everything. I also understand his reaction. It's not an easy song to grasp.

You both discovering the amazing journey music will take you places in your mind...and sets a mood. Good pick of Tool

This song won a Grammy award Brad and Lex. Not something Tool cares about but just thought you should know.

You both owe it to yourselves to see Tool live. it's not a concert, it's an experience.

Yeah, Tool is amazing live! I saw them 2 years ago in San Antonio and it was just awesome. I could feel Justin Chancellor's bass vibrating in my body & when Danny Carey smacked those drums...just Wow!! This song to me is about communication breakdown in relationships and trying to find it again, whether you're ever able to or not. It hits pretty close to home for me personally through one of my own.

They are the best band I’ve ever seen live, many times! Got to see this with the dancers in the video on the Lateralus tour back in 2002, Halloween as well!! They are INCREDIBLE live.

Y'all should do more early 2000's emo music like Thursday and Alexisonfire

You guys are amazing! One of my favorite reaction channels

Gotta see them live! One of my favorite bands and actually my mothers favorite band ever, she always wanted to go see them live and I’ve always promised her I’d take her one day, so I got her and I tickets to go see them for her birthday and we saw them in January of 2020, amazing show and amazing crowd, the best concert I’ve ever seen, it was the weekend after Kobe Bryant and his daughter tragically passed away and at one point Danny Carey did a drum solo wearing a Kobe jersey with all purple and gold stage lights, it was incredible, mixed crowd and everyone was very pleasant!

Ha, excellent reaction from Lex, and I reckon Brad would have gone back to this one after the cameras were off. Beautiful lyrics, powerful and succinct.

Tool is absolutely insane! I love them.

My favorite Tool song - thanks for an awesome reaction!

She has the best feel for music. My grandpa was a famous jazz musician in la and my mom was an og long beach punk i get the feels

Saw Tool in Montreal back in 2017. Well worth the price of admission! They are AMAZING live. Maynard tends to stay in the shadows, at least he did during that show. I would definitely go see them again! \m/

Hey Brad.... Lex is so awesome she understands music which is a true gift to have. Pays close attention to detail.. Shes a keeper Bro.

Welcome to Tool! An experience you’ll get every Tool song you listen to. Incredible musicians!!!!

Just saw Tool play two nights ago here in Sacramento and it was soooo awesome! Definitely have to go see them play live if you two have a chance!!
