First Time Reaction to TOOL - THE POT

[@johndevoist8129]

Welcome to the TOOL army, Sabina!

[@johnnyb6067]

Tool and Pink Floyd are two bands that don’t just make songs. They make albums that take you somewhere else. It’s just a different experience than 4/4 pop music.

[@danakerjbam]

Agree with all of this, except… I’m gonna be That Awful Guy Nobody Likes and point out… this is one of their rare 4/4 songs. Actually. *Pushes fedora to a jaunty angle. Wonders why he never had a girl or boyfriend*

[@damienfallon8980]

I always say Tool is metal Pink Floyd

[@pablerry]

@@damienfallon8980 Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and King Crimson´s made a treesome and Tool was born.

[@VLADIxxxDxxxIMPALER]

Well well well, Sabina i loved your reaction. as someone else commented. how you were writing your thoughts as you listened. are you in for a journey. i will be watching for your next tool reaction. cant wait.

[@beirch]

Btw The Pot has a double meaning: The obvious connotation of cannabis, but it's also "The pot calling the kettle black". It's a song about hypocritical behaviour.

[@johntaylor1286]

Another one joins the army!!!

[@Ka13Bang]

... and another Tool fan is born ! haha LOVE IT can't wait to see you go down the rabbit hole.

[@dealerservices3095]

TOOL's members are well over the age of 50 the drummer Danny Carey is 61 years old and arguably the best drummer in the world!!!

[@USMC-1911]

Definitely one of the best drummers he has a extra Tom or two I think that's why so many people think it sounds tribal.

[@jeffchappell8859]

And just like that! Your life has changed! Welcome!!!

[@fredtaylor2672]

I'm so glad to see you so happy

[@sabina1118]

[@charliemoss6379]

Tool is one of the best bands in the world! Anything that Maynard is associated with is good! Perfect circle, puscifer. They need to go down like Mozart in history!

[@MikeGraceJediDad]

Tool fans love finding people who have no clue what they're getting into. Their music is a deeply intellectual AND spiritual experience. #toolarmy

[@sharilynbratton6476]

Tool has 4 band members, the 3 musicians create the music first then the singer Maynard James Keenan writes the lyrics to fit the vibe of the song. Danny Carey the drummer is phenomenal, and all these guys are 60 years old now or near to it and still touring live shows that are unbelievable. I am 60 myself and have been a fan since they started in the '90s.

[@Republic3D]

You're right, but I also believe Maynard has some influence on the musical arrangement as well. His other two bands Puscifer and Perfect Circle are somewhat ... they sound complimentary and influenced by each other musically.

[@elvishuremovic7640]

True. I am fan since I first time saw Prison sex video on Mtv Headbangers ball back in 94'. Now I am 42 and I still head bang to Tool and there music new and old.

[@stefanocc84]

Don't forget that Adam Jones (guitar) is a professional movie make up artist and was involved in the making o Jurassik Park dinosours...

Catching your breath after vibing hard with a Tool song. Yep. That’s going to happen. 😂 There is so much to go back to and uncover as you listen to a Tool song. Layers upon layers. A sonic puzzle box that’s so fun to investigate and unlock.

[@jaypeterson2311]

Welcome to Tool. Spiral out!

[@somerandomguy32]

The moment your eyes closed they had you ..each album is a little different ..the sound design and all the little almost heard things really adds to the feel .. the odd time signatures are used to add anxiety or tension and its great ..it just gets better if you listen a few times

[@sabina1118]

Exactly!!

[@simongloss6995]

I love how you almost feel it shake your soul words really can't even compare

[@simongloss6995]

In every single song like the opiate album as well as undertow and aenima (I Love aenima) and 10000 days and fear inoculum

[@TackOnenone]

I had the pleasure of hanging out with Maynard (The singer for a half hour at an airport) and the conversation we had was insane he was such a nice guy but incredibly insightful about life and the world. I would highly recommend watching "Danny Carey Pneuma Drum Cam" It's a live show with main focus on Tool's Drummer who is held as maybe one of the best drummers ever. It's like watching an octopus play the drums or you sit and think this guy has 4 brains. Great reaction btw love this band.

[@baladi921]

So glad you loved this song. Fantastic way of not interrupting with pauses and using the subtitles to express yourself. THANK YOU! 💙

[@ZFlyingVLover]

You're the first reviewer that lets the music flow and doesn't interrupt it with pointless comment. I love your commentary in the subtitles cause you nailed the feeling at every point. Keep it up very entertaining

[@patrickjohnson4912]

First time I have seen you on youtube. You gained a subscriber just by staying in the song and talking about your reaction at the end. The notes during the song are wonderful. I will be checking out more of your content. Great job!!!

I feel like the contortionist is pink Floyd and Tool is Tool. No harm intended 🫠

Welcome to the 🌀 Tool has been my favorite band since they came out in the early 90s and blew me away. They do not have a bad song, as you will see as you hear more. First song I heard was Sober and I think you will enjoy it as well.

[@sabina1118]

Thank you. Noted!

[@jeffreyrobinson6698]

For the song Sober, watch the live version with the most views for it is extremely moving. I don’t have the words for it but it’s something that you need to experience and look forward to your reaction to it.

[@guylewis477]

True story

[@Spinkleofwhimsy]

I remember seeing Sober video when I was a little kid. Oh MTV, those were the days!

[@batthefat3952]

Welcome to the world my lady... ;-) I'm a 46 years old fan of TOOL for 30 years (since the "Undertow" album, 1993). Recently, watching and listening reactions to my favorites bands intrigues and amuses me greatly. This said, I Really liked your reaction, first because you didn't stop the song (unlike too many others...), and then because we really can see on your face it's the first time, it's not fake and you really enjoyed it. I hope you tried other songs of TOOL, and found some answers about your good and legitime questions about TOOL. If so, I'm sure you're now fan of this extraordinary band. Among many kind genres of music and or bands, Tool belongs to my trinity, with Neurosis and Meshuggah. This three bands are each in their own way precursors (even fathers of new musical genre, like "Djent" for Meshuggah, or "Sludge" for Neurosis), and influenced many, many bands for 30 years now... Pfff... Yep, I become old... Maybe Meshuggah won't fits to you (I give you only judge), so let's try the song "The Eye Of Every Storm", or "Under The Surface" from Neurosis. This band is not very technical, but extraordinary emotionnal and dark. Here too, the own judge is you. Again, welcome among us, TOOl fans, you'll never leave... Best regards from France PS: Sorry in advance if my english is not perfect

[@bloodybutunbowed291]

[@af4396]

It's their most digestible track for new listeners lol. Simple time signatures, addicting hooks, enough complexity and dynamics to make them stand out from most songs made for radio, but not too much since the time signature/melodies are very basic.

[@primateinterfacetechnologi6220]

tool army reporting for duty. I imagine after that you'll want to hear more tool... I guarantee you will not be disappointed. "Rabbit hole" is the most common term you'll hear... And they are certainly that. You can pick any song at random, It doesn't matter... They're all great. I dig your format- with no pauses and your comments in writing... It works quite well for me. Also- That shirt is greatness. Absolutely love it. You will find that the tool army is a most agreeable bunch... And we will all be there for every tool reaction you do. peace and love.

I just stumbled upon this channel and this is the only video I’ve watched so far. I have no clue what kind of music you like but definitely check out every Tool album. Their music evolves from one album to the next and it’s phenomenal. If you ever get a chance to see them live don’t miss it. They’ll literally leave you speechless and melt your face off. Do some research on band and you’ll find all kinds of really really cool stuff. The band has been together for over three decades and has only released 5 albums yet they sell out massive venues all around the world when they tour. They’ll blow your mind. Whoever said the circus is the best show on earth is full of shit and has clearly never been to a Tool concert.

I love Tool, and I love your unique way of reacting with text versus stopping and talking. Very creative! 👍

[@ravenofroses]

oh you are gonna LOVE tool. there's just SO MUCH to sink your teeth into. oh, and three things to know for your inevitable next tool reactions: 1) avoid the music videos, as they tend to be confusing/distracting. 2) the vocalist is not always so clearly audible on some tracks, because the band treats the vocals as if it were any other instrument instead of the star of the show. 3) the only live videos you should (and honestly must) react to are the live of "sober" from the 90s and the drum cam video for "pneuma."

[@stephenh79]

Hi Sabina, if you’re gonna be reacting to more Tool he is some tips. 1. Their music videos are amazingly creative but can be very distracting for a first time listen especially as the video doesn’t always fit the lyrics. (The guitarist makes the videos and often plans them while the singer is working on the lyrics.) 2. The singer of the band treats his vocals as an instrument and as such it is often in the mix and don’t stand out unlike this song, so having the lyrics handy would be helpful. 3. Their Albums are designed to be listened to start to finish which means a lot of their songs are often best listen too in pairs (some even in three’s like Disposition, Reflection and Triad also know as the holy trinity.) to get the best experience from them.

[@violindylan]

You have no idea yet what you are up to… I caught the tool virus in August, and it has since taken control of me. I can’t wait to go on this journey with you, really diggin your reactions!

There are no bad tool songs, but some of my favorites are -Sober (both studio and live version) -STINKFist -Ænema -Schism -PushIt -The Grudge -Parabol/Parabola (together, it is a must!!!) -Lateralus -Vicarious -Right in Two -Pneuma (first studio version, then Danny Carey drum cam, mind blowing!!!!) -Invincible -Descending But like I say, you can’t go wrong with any of their songs!

I’ve always likened this band to Rush and Led Zeppelin..dominating bass work and strong guitar riffs supplemented by some great drumming and swirling vocals. This band are a good example of ‘structured metal’, nothing chaotic or out of place. Just good strong guitars, drums and vocals. This is how a band should command your attention and focus..ultra strong musicianship. Sabina…’you don’t know what to expect’. Absolutely.
