Tool - "ænema" (Bass Cover)

The're a lot to Tool's music and Justin Chancellor's use of textures, sounds and percussively cutting tone just blow my mind. This is a great example of the potential reached when you challenge the status quo!

[@k.c.lejeune6613]

The amount of techniques I've learned from watching Kello's videos is unbelievable, thanks brother, you continue to amaze and inspire!

[@jannetoropainen9865]

Oh man same btw how many basses do you have? I have 3 basses, one 6 string bass, one fretless bass and normal bass with frets i been playing almost year i know slap and tap.

[@ashvsthedeadite6091]

I love finger pickin, but I'm better with a pick

[@organicmechanic5150]

Agreed. I've asked Kello about different methods and he has more often than not shared exactly how he played the track. His style is unique but he manages to nail the bass track and almost the exact tone.

[@papasadistich8320]

Great fucking job on these, man. I'm a bassist myself and really appreciate people like, those who use the bass like a real instrument and not just as a back up.

[@TheMrMused]

I keep coming back, time and time again to this incredible cover of Justin Chancelor's masterwork. What is absolutely *crazy* is the your fingers become wholly fluid @4:30 ... between the camera, bpm, and sheer talent, the fingers cease to exist and become a flowing element.

[@kellogc]

Thanks a lot. I’m glad you enjoy the video 🤘🏻🤩🤘🏻

[@Fingerknee]

I felt the lactic acid build up on this one

[@MIXTAB1]

"Anything you can do with a pick I can do better!"🎶 Great job man! Very tough to pull of finger style!

[@alejandroramirez4470]

unless you actually practice

[@MIXTAB1]

Struggle President yeah, it usually creates this tingy fret buzzy sound... which is fine if you’re looking for that... but yeah, Justin has a wal bass and it runs through 2 channels dirty and clean.. tha wal bass is pretty pick friendly... some basses juts sound horrible with a pick... but I suppose no matter what, with enough equipment you can make anything sound good... Just a side note, I’m obsessed with Justin’s tone haha... it’s so gritty yet warm.. the low end is heavy as fuck, and the mids and highs punchy and twangy... but still low... it’s all about the wal bass

[@EndlessNameless137]

I've just recently begun to really appreciate the bass, and everything Justin adds to Tool's music. Seeing you finger pick like that is incredible!

[@tonyking6471]

saw these guys live in Evansville Indiana few yrs back. guys were spent at the end of 2 solid hrs of playin. Justin is one of my fave bass players. he was soaked at the end of the show as all.of em.were. took my son he and I still compare not about the show.....opionion....if u get to see these guys in live show for God's sake do it...one awesome experience!!!!!!!!! you rule Maynard!!!!!!!!

[@texasturner2313]

By far the best bassist on YT... thanks for posting.

[@tcotroneo]

I have yet to see someone get that alternative riff around 1:12 played correctly.. Justin plays an open A after the hammer ons as well. Everyone covers it with just the open high D..

[@inkblowout]

To be fair, the open A is incredibly hard to hear in the studio version of the song. I can only hear it clearly if I can isolate the bass track from the song itself.

[@cbwelch4]

Dude, your musical taste is the same as mine and your skills are undeniable. Just browsing I’ve run into your covers a bunch.

[@kellogc]

Thank you very much 👊🏻

[@thomasmaggs898]

Dude, I'm a massive Tool fan, but no bassist. However you, sir, and of course Justin himself, are bloody brilliant.

[@kellogc]

Thanks!

[@egnbigdave]

3 years late on this but Fuuuuuk dude.. I LOVE thetone you have going on there.

[@organicmechanic5150]

I've watched a tutorial on how to play this by the man himself, Justin Chancellor. After watching this cover, it's fair to say that you have made this bass track your own with the different finger styles used, something Justin does not do as we all are aware that he uses a plectrum. I can agree with another comment on this channel, I have learnt how to use different styles and not be afraid to interpret tracks how I like to play them. Thanks Kello, see you in Arizona Bay 🤟

[@kellogc]

Thank you! That’s what’s all about: having fun while paying tribute to the music and artist we like. 👊🏻

[@matteomarasco8655]

maaaan i want a wal bass so badly. As soon as I can I will get one, I just love everything about them, also you played the shit out of that bass, so good well done dude

[@austinhunt4260]

Kello, you give me renewed respect for these incredible pieces of music which you play so faithfully. Thank you.

Es un bajo Wal, más que pedales creo que eso influye muchísimo. ;)

there was a song by tool that explains how to make brownies right?

[@robertbentley5604]

The only people I could see downvoting this video are two types- 1. Can't afford a WAL or 2. Can't get triplets out of their fingerstyle playing ;) hehehe Great as always man. Your youtube channel is a gem. You get such great tones when you play.

[@lred1383]

If all people that fall under those categories downvoted, this would have about a 1-15 like/dislike ratio, at the very least.

Great cover .. for your experience what effect is need to have for a good chancellor sound ? i have now only the chorus delay b3k e Multicomp i want to buy a flanger

[@richmerrill3940]

Giacomo Rinaldi its mostly the bass. It's how the pickups are wired. Each pole piece is wired to be basically it's own pre amp. That said, he is a fantastic bass player.

[@eadasder13]

Tengo una duda: Para tocar el bajo usas la tenica que usa Geddy Lee? Usar las uñas de los dedos para que suene mas como una pua a pesar de que no estas tocando con una.

[@kellogc]

En este caso no, es plucking con los dedos. El chiste es darle con fuerza para darle el timbre correcto.

[@renatomartin4655]

There might be something wrong with me but when I hear Tool I just hear a sequence of notes and chords. I really don't like their odd time signatures, they all seem to be the same. To my earballs, Soundgarden are about a million miles higher than Tool.
