Here’s a clone cover of Lateralus for the Tool fans, dedicated to my uncle who showed me Tool as a kid. Can't get out and play live shows these quarantine days, so this was a project I took on. Rehearsed and planned for about two months till I had everything reliably on lock, lots of technical trial and error to get the "vibe" and tones set, all parts were recorded in one take and captured simultaneously with the videos. Every sound in this video was 100% recreated from scratch for this cover. No sounds/samples were taken or used from the original song or elsewhere. I had to buy some gear beforehand such as the bass whammy and a certain mic I needed for the hi hat, I even tried to rent a gong for the ending part Danny does from a place called Gongs Unlimited in Nebraska. After calling them and getting the dimensions, it was physically impossible to fit behind the kit, as this drum setup was already tight and I’m always pressed for image frame space while shooting these clone vids. Also I used a kick drum with a single head for the intro buildup part. It had that “cardboardy” sub frequency sound I was looking for. I added double-tracked guitars and double tracked vocals after the fact, all in the same spots that are done on the original song. I put more of a personal twist on the vox for this one and just had fun with it. No tabs were used so some things may be played differently from an “official” standpoint. If you want to know more technicals about the production, send me an email on my channel info page. Despite some extremely frustrating moments along the way, in the end I had a badass time doing this cover. Peace
**I DO NOT IN ANY WAY claim the rights to this song, and thanks to Tool for being the timeless, revolutionary, and genius band they are.

My original music, Dimphonic! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZPJmGVqmdiHaZYsi=BvUegCbpFjqYUOIq Guys I really apologize for the ads popping up mid video. Just to say, I am not making any money from this video. It got instantly copyright claimed and demonetized and all ad revenue is going to the copyright owner. I am going to try to work out some type of revenue sharing just for the fact of being able to control mid video ads. As a music channel I never put ads mid video, it ruins the listening experience.

[@ohshiite]

Omg!! How I caught your last clone cover of Stinkfist, it just came into my feed one day.. I watched it and it literally blew me away! I immediately shared it on my timeline... Got mad response. Honestly I don't think, "including me" anyone had ever seen anything like this? Oh you're on to something... Plus love your attitude towards your approach with music... So you posted this new clone cover and had a link to your original band, Dimphonic... I click on it, low n behold the title to the track is "Nur5e"... Hahaha.

This dude is something else so not taking anything way from that. But the part you are referring to is not a polyrhythm. All of his limbs are in 5 in some form or the other If I'm not mistaken. The bass hits the first 4 notes out of ten. The hi hat opens on 1 and 3 and then 6 and 8 on a count of ten. Snare on 9 and hi hat hand is constant. That's my understanding of the part anyway

[@alekshammo]

@@jellicology Thanks for clarifying!

[@RyanxDunn]

@@alekshammo lol, nice to see someone actually take another person's clarification positively on KZbin for once... I know what you mean though. That part is a genius composition, and looks and sounds easier when it's played by someone who plays it effortlessly.

[@ege999men8]

I play that part personally (can't come close to playing the whole song) the trick is not counting. You just gotta close your eyes and feel the song. if you try to count you get lost in the signature

[@Christopher-md7tf]

@@jellicology It could be considered a polyrhythm, but it is definitely not a polymeter, which would be what Aleks referred to. The really interesting thing about this part though, is that the drums are playing in a different time signature from the rest of the band.

Amazing cover! :)

[@jim-alexbrown8026]

I really thought it was 4 different people for a long time. I have a smooth brain

[@PeterZivZakor]

OMG, wow... I'm speechless! I can't even imagine the time and effort this performance needed. Brilliant!!

[@sunnieosborne4417]

back to watch again and again over the years cuz it's that fuckin good

[@ruffneckmedia]

[@jmullentech]

lmao not even gonna lie, I'd chip in on that!!

[@matthewchurch9629]

A gong fund me indeed

[@plutodigi8657]

Guys. That just ripped my face off. Incredible. The best cover I’ve ever seen of that song. Drummer is a beast.

[@plutodigi8657]

Aaaand I just realised it’s the same guy playing all instruments

[@calebbelac9349]

Pluto Digi it took me a while too 😂

[@chrisg7340]

Agree. The drummer was most impressive. Singer was decent too.

[@paulweisgerber7654]

Pluto Digi It doesn’t matter. You’d have been right picking out any one of those guys, lol!

[@scottkadebumgardner1103]

I still think it's four different people on level

He rode that spiral so hard, he splintered himself into 4 beings.

[@TTRLAF]

This is so awesome!!!

[@ragedmachine]

That time when KZbin removed your Stinkfist clone cover because it thought it was the real thing

[@cmccab01]

Yup. Y'all absolutely nailed it. Do. Not. EVER. Give up ...

[@robsimmonsandjamsfrombelow7812]

Amazing!!!

[@kry_love]

Awesome 🔥

[@OriginOutfittersMaine]

[@dramaface]

*starts swaying playing the guitar* *WHOLE BAND STARTS SWAYING IN SYNC*

[@zachp9089]

Apex Tool here; Lateralus a personal favorite of mine. Mega challenging to cover because of Danny’s intricate time signature interlude thingy @ 4:50. Blasted through it like the proverbial hot knife through butter. All your instruments on point. Bravo, love your work.

[@lcdat]

Mind blown!

[@guitaradrian07]

Brilliant 👏

41 people are unable to feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral, to swing on the spiral, to swing on the spiral Of our divinity and still be a human

[@Dannyk-jh8lv]

10/10 best internet comment I've seen in ages. Maybe best of 2020. Take your bow.

[@1cryptocaveman]

best replay ever

[@Desertprophit83]

Lmao

[@sickjoystick6]

Yhea this is probably the most acurate and well made cover on the entire internet. Automatically became my favorite ever

[@LD-qf7bf]

Same here, I really hope he comes out with more of these tool covers.

[@dramaface]

Thanks man 🥹

[@arunp3425]

Mesmerizing! 🔥
