"Invincible is a top tier TOOL song" and I stand by that! Reaction starts around the 2:20 mark. Also, we are super stoked that "Old Soul" by LemonTech is out on Spotify / KZbin Music / etc... it might take a few more days for Apple Music. We would love your help getting that song out to world! :)

Pasted from my main comment; Stopped your video and went to Spotify to listen to your new song and it’s beautifully rhythmic and dynamic! Fantastic💯🔥 P.S. The tool shirt you were wearing in the last video about seeing to live is the same shirt. My wife and I bought each other when we went to see TOOL at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, Jan 24th🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@MrRubyscube]

That's Tool, making songs about the difficulty in facing the realities of growing older instead of dragons and goblins. No wonder most metalheads don't get them. ;) Great reaction!

[@zeldroid5085]

But in that regard it sounds like it could be a song about a war with dragons and goblins even if the lyrics don't specifically mention them :D

[@bigbirdsghost1971]

You guys are doing it right with your eyes closed and letting the TOOL experience take you on the musical journey . It really is the propper way that this album should be listened to for the first time to take it all in.....

[@PaulGuy]

The way I interpret this song is that the whole first part of the song is looking back at what you've done, at the battles fought and sometimes won. But as time goes on, it's harder and harder to keep it up (the heavy shield). The middle part is the march to the next battle, because it's what feels like life. Gotta keep going, can't give up. Then the final fast part is the fight itself, where it feels good to get in and do it. We feel young again, even if we aren't, and even if we might lose, because it makes an old soul feel young. If only for a moment. As I get older, I understand more and more of that idea. The battle can be anything, but we all get tired, but can't give up, because some battles need fighting, and sometimes it doesn't matter if you win, because being willing to stand up and make the point that you won't back down is the real win.

[@benporter2059]

there's Justins bass solo, but there is a synth on this song and its played by Danny. Its a mallet/xylophone-style analog synth and you can see it behind his head in his kit.

[@PowderedToastMan420]

[@Bldgrn034]

I have been a TOOL fan since i was a kid. Born in '92 I grew up on their music. Never had the money to go see them as a kid. I just went to see them in Fresno on February 12th. Probably the greatest show I've seen live. It was so good I decided to go to LA to see them again on Valentine's Day. I drove down and the seller from stubhub backed out last minute. Long story short, I got blessed and ended up with a complimentary ticket through someone who was the girlfriend of one of the guys who travels and does production for TOOL. Also ended up with a Justin Chancellor pick and half of the confetti poster. This song has since changed my life daily. This is a long comment but this experience was definitely a miracle and the universe somehow pulled it together. I always knew there was something deeper to TOOL and their music spiritually but I never knew how deep it would go in my life. .. your song is amazing by the way. Keep killing it

Tell the puppy I said bless you. Great reaction and congrats on your awesome new song. Keep rockin and stay awesome.

[@chrislong1629]

Loved this reaction! You guys are spot on with the breakdown of the song. I think it is about the band coming back after a 13 year hiatus and still being warriors, staying relevant, and being the best at their craft. Justin’s bass solo has that synth effect, he is a stand out on this one. When they play this live they come together then walk away during the marching drum part. Tempest will be incredible as well. Look forward to checking out more of Lemon Tech, it sounds great!

[@barte3822]

Love your reactions, especially Val' s vibe and insight. Can't wait until 7empest reaction, arguably the best song on this album. ✌️❤️

[@thecats501]

You guys really nailed it with Old Soul. I listened to it before watching the rest of the video and I was blown away by how good it is. You guys managed to take what I love from bands like Pink Floyd and Tool, and apply them to your own art in a way that’s completely unique and your own thing. It felt very inviting to just let myself get into the rhythm of the song and let myself create a little miniature journey while I listened. I look forward to following and seeing what LemonTech does in the future! 😀

[@brians2869]

Love this one... been a fan for decades. Saw this live twice.. Among my favorites. Nice reaction, you two

[@ConnerSpeed6]

I have been jamming your song "Snowy Mountains" on repeat lately! It's a whole vibe! Can't wait to listen to the new drop!

[@fkuchta145]

Had to pause the video while I went and listened to your song really quick! It’s so good! Added and following. Can’t wait to see what you make next

[@danielhill8200]

I knew the moment when 16:45 came that you would both be unable to keep your heads from nodding lol. It’s neat to watch that part live because they (Tool) light up the arena to a degree and if you look around at the fans you’ll see, about 90%, with their heads nodding. Male or female, it doesn’t matter. It’s neat to witness, because the 15,000+ people will be perfectly synced nodding. I consider the experience special, because I believe it unlikely I’ll witness a truer display of harmony.

[@yarlinman5197]

Went and checked out Old soul and it's got a really nice warm ambient sound coupled with good vocals. A good song is always welcome on my playlist, so keep it up!✌

[@dylaningo3065]

This song has helped me through a lot this last couple of years mentally and in the gym most definitely

[@markroberts8864]

Just to add a little depth to this song, Maynard seems to know a little about American history. Ponce de Leon was a Spanish explorer/ colonizer who landed off the coast of Florida, around what is now St Augustine..circa 1514? Though most explorers were searching for gold and wealth, it was said he was searching for the Fountain of Youth.

[@clintwood9472]

This is entirely mythological. The story of Ponce De Leon supposedly searching for the fountain of youth didn't appear until many years after his death. There are no references to the fountain of youth in any documents during his lifetime. It is entirely fabricated and firmly rooted in mythology. Definitely not associated with American history in any capacity.

[@DickJochs-sz1hy]

I think it's about Adrenachrome. Tears from children is the fountain of youth. I play this song every single morning of my life. Of course I over think and over analyze all of their songs. Top 3 TOOL song in my humble opinion. And I too, think Maynard is a history buff. The only way you get as deep as this band, is to work through all the layers. Spiral Out my friend.

[@loyaluwang4228]

​@@DickJochs-sz1hyIam most of the time lethargic and don't want to do any work but when I put this song on headphones and work while doing so, I saw the magic.

[@scottsimms7651]

Every guitarist needs a Sneezing Chihuahua Pedal.

[@garrettmarshall1288]

Which plays off of… “but the truth never got in my way before now” …since the concept of “the fountain of youth” is a myth that people don’t want to believe is false…until “now” (the point at which they realize they aren’t going to be young or live forever.) Maynard is my favorite lyricist. Ever.

[@garrettmarshall1288]

The last the last very last 4 words(plus the 2 word repeated) sung reveals what the song is about. This song hits even harder when your in your 40s+ Feeling time bearing down. Bearing down.

[@inspectorquaalude714]

The synth part is Danny Carey on that huge keyboard behind the drums. As a vocalist Val should hear Culling Voices

[@kevingowers1975]

This is correct. People mistake his mandala pads for guitar parts as well

hey!! hey!! I just listened to "Heartbreak in Hawaii" you talented, amazing nerds!! I'm a fan!!

[@urbanshamanproductions9092]

Hahaha aww thank you so much!!!

[@chriscary9269]

That sound your talking about comes from the massive electric keyboard In The back of the drum set and Danny is the one doing the sounds. But also Adam and Justin both have their own sound as well

[@prefono]

Actually the synth you hear is a pad played by Danny. You can see a frighteningly faithful and grandiose replica of it on KZbin in John Kew's cover of Invincible. Her videos are definitely worth checking out.

[@heyskipj]

Resonated with Val’s reaction today. Like ripples on the water changing direction with the wind. 🤌 Even though Maynard writes some delicious lyrics, Guess I want to put more shine on how the instruments are telling me the story alongside the lyrics in this one. Marching, heaviness. The music stops at points then gets back up. Lyrics are icing on this cake. Invincible is a question to me: Is Tool - considered by many as one of the strongest bands in their day still invincible? Do they have the fight still? Or is this it? So many parallels! Long comment. Great reaction!

[@jarrodmarker8590]

Juan Ponce de león founded Florida in 1513. He landed in St. Augustine. He was a governor of Puerto Rico and he was from Spain. There is a place in St. Augustine Florida next to where he came ashore called the fountain of youth.

The "breakdown" at 12:28 and when that metallic bass sliding bass note hits at 12:37 is my favorite part of this song. That one note is SO fucking good. It's like a missile coming in.

[@pabloscobar958]

Yeah ive always wondered what made that sound, figured it was a sample on the kit but might be on the bass im not sure

[@nathanmiller9918]

There is a bass solo in there in this one, incredibly distorted, but Adam does also play pretty large synth parts in the newer stuff, including this song. He'll generally loop a guitar riff via pedal before moving to do his synth part.

As a brand new 50yo, this song has special significance… more years behind than ahead, strength waning, racing against the darkening when usefulness will fail me.

[@orrenkeane2941]

Everytime I hear this I just hear/see Game of Thrones, battle of the bastards. Jon Snow is in his like 5th epic battle and just wants it to be over. Danny's relentless double kicks in the middle section is the Calvary, the long break is after he kills Ramsey but there's more battles to fight. You have to get back into the rhythm of fighting again because the next one is on the horizon. Just relentless building with the guitars throughout. A chef's kiss of a song.

[@johnw6137]

You guys would love the song disillusioned by maynards other band a perfect circle. Powerful lyrics and voice in that one

[@SwordfighterHayate]

First part feeling young, middle realizing you're getting old and ending trying to find youth again

[@ErraziBProductionS]

In Pneuma, Adam does indeed play a synth during the breakdown. You can hear him leave the last note ringing out as he starts the intro refrain lightly and builds back up into the heaviest bit. Pneuma is my #1 fav song of all time, and as a guitarist and keyboardist, I know it very well. In a lot of other places, Danny triggers sounds on a large mallet keyboard, as others have stated, plus his 6-10 Mandala pads. That’s why he has a huge rack of gear beside him during shows.

[@marvinhacker1902]

Tool has been playing for 30 years... to maintain relevant for that long as a band is incredible...I think the song has much to do with being in your prime, but, having passed that point but still performing at a high level....it's a coming of age track and what happens after being in your prime...but realizing that you're not in your prime any longer, but, still bringing it!

[@leerobertson868]

I feel like the song could relate to their lives in Tool and maybe sensing the end isn't far away. Reflection on who they used to be as far as going out show after show as youthful rock stars

[@copydepastey]

the part of the song that sounds almost like a weird synthy guitar solo(while the actual guitar is playign the crunchy repeating rhythm) is the bass guitar using a pitch shifting "whammy" pedal to go into the range of standard guitar. with other effects like flange and chorus and delay making it sound a bit different from normal bass stuff. the part where the drums cut out and there is a synth melody is played on a synth by the drummer Danny Carey and after the last note he goes back to the drums.

The mix is top tier...but their ability to write music with gaps for each instrument help the mix so much
