I'm not sure it makes Tool fans immature that they want or expect a new album after 12 years. I think you would be hard pressed to find another band, that didn't break up or lose a band member, to take so long between albums.

[@buffalobillswin187]

@@allsystemsgo8678 I agree. Some of it has been a fear or breaking up, or extreme style changes to the music. So many bands, if they don't break up, change their style so much it's hard to even recognize the music. And that's just after a few years. Not the decades Tool has been rocking. Their style has changed. The music is more refined. I like the first 3 more. But I still have excitement for releases.

As someone that grew up listening to Tool and thinking they were the coolest band around, it’s pretty cool to see Maynard resurfacing in something like mixed martial arts, which is something I’ve taken an interest in as an adult.

Its like He took a long look at the rest of the world, didnt like what he saw and decided to create his own little world but with locally sourced pasta and wine. The man clearly managed to make a little bubble of community in a world otherwise hellbent on egotism and xenophobia. Equally bizzare as it is inspiring and heart warming. Peace

[@camgood2437]

This was a great video. I really like what he said about people saying "I know what I'm doing". It's basically the same as the Zen Buddhist concept of "Beginner's Mind", which says that we should always strive to be beginners in everything we approach. As Shunryu Suzuki said, "In the beginner's mind, there are many possibilities. In the expert's mind, there are few".

[@erravi]

I am crying right now. depression has taken over me for the past few months and this is the only thing that’s made me actually want to try again. another comment in the comment section as well as this series (mainly Maynard’s ending words here) are making me cry. edit: the comment by Fuzz Demon.

[@vichaon]

erravi hey. Just wanted to send you a virtual accolade. Depression is a bitch and to hear you saying you found some light here is just a proof you won't be beaten easily! What Maynard says is what Maynard is. All he portrays in this series resonates with me so strongly perhaps because there is so much truth and authenticity in the message. This message is: in order to live a happy life, you need meaning. To find meaning you need to search. So you need to make an effort, it's hard. But that's good. You then need to be ok with the fact you can't get things right straight away and that you're gonna make mistakes. So then you need to be creative. Which means being your own, or on your own. And martial arts and music emulates that. So anyway sorry for ranting but whatever resonated with you in this video is what you are searching in the universe. But more importantly know that the universe is searching for you to get this very thing. You saw the sign that you needed. Open up to the signs, be ok to change. Changing is scary because you step into the unknown. But learning new things and going for new experiences is what makes us grow and feel alive. That's what Maynard also says. So I wish you the very best of luck. Hang in there long enough and then let yourself go into whatever the universe puts in front of you. Peace out!

[@MaddBaggins]

This was a great series! As a brewer by trade, I get his love of wine. It's art in it's own right and it's a struggle all the time. Started out as a big Tool fan back in the early 90's. At some point I became a brewer and a fan of wine. A coworker handed me a copy of Wine Spectator magazine probably 12 years ago and inside was an interview with Maynard. I was blown away! I learned he was more than just a singer in a band. I feel we've been on somewhat parallel courses over the last 20yrs, albeit he's well off and I'm struggling. The struggle is the spice of this life though. I've been working hard on my craft while working hard on my own little urban farm, trying to support local at every turn and enjoying each day with my family. Nothing better than an afternoon in the yard watching my dogs and chickens, enjoying conversation with my family and a nice beer while picking some fresh veggies. Jerome is a cool town, I haven't been there in 20yrs or more, I should take a ride up there soon, it's only a few hours away. Cheers.

Brilliant series with Maynard. Words of wisdom that shouldn’t be taken lightly. What he has to say is very inspiring. I’ve been working for my company for 10 years now, I’m 51 and even though I only kind of like what I do, I’m very good at it but I wish I could walk away and do something that I feel more passionate about just for me and make a good living doing it and possibly pass it along to my kids if they so see fit when they are older. But at my age and not having a safety net and being the single, responsible parent that I am, I’m scared tbh. I’m not sure what direction I would even go in or where to start. Not sure what it is exactly I’m passionate about but I do feel the passion on the inside especially when I hear Maynard speak so eloquently about, do what you feel is right for you in your heart and try to learn and grow as a human being, kind of way. Like spiral out, but I’m still trying to find where to spiral out to. He’s very wise and gives great advise and it just inspires me. I just wish I knew where to place my inspiration. I’m bored with my job and just wish I had some other way to succeed for myself instead of for the company I work for or anyone else. I just need to think about it and hope I find my way. I know for sure I’ll come back to this series whenever I need a pep talk. Thanks for the insight and wisdom Maynard. You’re truly an inspiration. Much love and respect.

Everyone that I show tool lyrics and perfect circle lyrics all change something in their life for the better. I use to be a stupid drunk self centered ego manic but I choked my old self out.

[@BahHumBangAudio]

Fuzz Demon i understand what you mean. My lady was slowly getting me into APC, and one night, we did LSD for the first time, was the most profound and blissful experience, listening to APC, was as if I was transported elsewhere and living different lives/experiences, based on the song, was absolutely intense. From that moment forward, Maynard became an even larger part of my life. Even aside from his music, hes a admirable person in numerous other aspects. Saw APC once in Denver and that was amazing too. So now, past year or so, been bringing myself up to date on Tool. Just got interested a little late, was only into mainstream radio rap crap growing up, 18 joined the army, blind wittle sheep, so none of the music really resonated with me in a way that I could intrepet...Now, I've gone through enough and experienced enough to intrepet the music more. Long as Im growing, each time I hear a song, I intrepet it differently, its neat.

[@FuzzMasterGeneral]

J Jizzle Congrats you woke up that night .It's hard to explain to people what you experienced but those who know what it's like to have that "spiritual " experience your in tune with now. You see the world in all its beauty and downfalls. You see people different you loose ego gain awareness and become a better person. Now search for things that give you that feeling you experienced without any mind altering substance. We all can be one conscience when we go deep within ourselves and become awakened. Now you see your shadow changing 🕉

[@BahHumBangAudio]

Fuzz Demon Fuzz Demon Everything you said highly resonated with me, very well worded. After I got out the army, i started going to college and volunteering time at a local, independent car audio shop (can see from my channel that music, audio, car audio has always been big to me), after a few months of developing this close bond with the owners ( a guy and his companion/co-worker), I found out they dabbled in psychedelics a bit. At that point (like 2 years ago), I'd never been much aware on psychedelics. He told me he'd done DMT a few times and had some if I ever felt I wanted to try it. Few months go by, about the only thing I watch on it is that "DMT The Spirit Molecule" (and read very little of Strassmans book). So, ultimately, I undergo the DMT experience, and wow. Long story short, its beautifully tragic, terrifyingly profound, blissfully reality-shattering; was a divine wake up call. To this day I randomly express "thanks" for the experience that day, was so re(un)veal(veil)ing, same for LSD. Tried a tab once (my lady and i) with another couple, nothing really happened. Few months later, we (my lady and i) did lsd again (was told it was tab and a half), and absolutely everything happened. After those 2 experiences, there's a lot of illusions i see through, and a lot of things I "just get" now, its just, wow lol. So yeah, after those 2 theraputic experiences, I'm good, for a few lifetimes lol.

[@BahHumBangAudio]

Amir Frost preciate that. Theres a ton that I was unaware of up until a few years ago (music wise, even movie wise, the way I experience/interpret the symbolism and allegories now vs years ago when unaware, is mind blowing, and some of that is credited to Maynard and his unorthodox, outside the box creative mind.).

He's proving that by opening his life to us by constantly making videos, interviews, appearances where he go's into depth about his life and opinions. Glad that such a talented man who has so much to show, tell, and give is willing to regardless of what anyone thinks. It's like here I am like it or leave it, it's Me. Priceless...

Those 1/2 inches...those 1/4 inches....watching them go by. Loved Mr. Keenan as a musician for a minute already. More love for you brother as a martial artist now. 忍法一観

[@Waymanator123]

I'm glad in this series that he wasn't censored

[@kierangargis5734]

I have been a B.J.J.practitioner for 20 yrs.I HAVE ALSO BEEN A Lover of Tool and all Maynards music.By far ,my favorite Band and favorite of all martial arts.So to see my two ultimate passions come together is just amazing.I would absolutely love to hang and train with Him.I HOPE IT DISCOVERS THE UTILIZATION OF THE NERVES,PRESSURE POINTS AS WELL.It totally elevated my jiu-jitsu to a new level.Great for chokes,armbands, any joint manipulation ,especially Chokes,blood deprivations.

[@stefanieloss8779]

Great series! Loved! Can't wait to see Serj Tankian series.

[@joser4924]

Fuck yea.

[@josephbrandt3768]

Love Maynard and I love his dedication to his works. Can't wait to see him again this summer!

[@orpheusnz]

Fantastic series. Thanks for the insight into the life of a fascinating human being :)

[@mikemcguire3676]

The last two minutes of this video is a manifesto for how to live your life, and why you need to connect with your true self. He is so grounded and so enlightened.

[@meat-hook]

Soldier, wine maker, Judoka, and one time he did some music or something.

[@rubaidaallen2764]

Maynard is so inspirational and badass. I've completely changed my mind about him.

[@peaceindarkness.darknessis3494]

Maynard look like Uncle Junior from Sopranos with his glasses🤣

[@Troopmcdoop]

Is that me on there?

[@alicia8584]

8:05 - best advice I've had in respect to being flexible in your career and being willing to adapt to change. I've had to search myself recently over how to do this in my own career, and was struggling with feeling inadequate and finding myself humbled by circumstance. It's comforting to hear someone as experienced as MJK say in essence that humility and trial are key to growth. In short, accepting this fact and then by committing yourself to work will mean everything will be ok, even if things don't turn out ok.

[@jayprivacy1900]

I need to get out to Jerome.

[@Max-il5hx]

It's so true, success is a result of millions of variables configuring perfectly. Dedication, hard work and focus are tools you can arm yourself with in preparation, but I've seen my dreams crumble around me despite my tireless efforts. It's getting more and more frustrating as I age, and I know many other educated, old school hard workers must feel this inherent indifference the universe has for their efforts. But there's nothing else we can do but learn, soldier on, grab at every ounce of hope we can find and survive as long as possible.

[@notyetskeletal4809]

I thought of Chris Cornell, David Bowie and Rick Mayall this week.

[@DanielaLolu]

He's so involved with every single part of the process of all the things he does. Is incredible how he's been able to give this community a bigger sense of belonging and growth trough creating a lots of new job positions that put the locals in value, the nature, the products, the people. Is great to see he's not just a great artist, but a great person with a clear vision of what building a community really is.

[@lp1043]

“Then you draw dicks on his forehead” he’s so comical and humble and so damn smart. I absolutely love this guy

[@dcarpenter4277]

Keenan is such a fascinating man. This 4 part series isn’t enough. We need more!

[@m.94]

This is the best man alive

[@headshota1989]

Man I thought there was hair on my monitor

[@m.94]

Shota Bakuradze XD

[@theemptyskillet9616]

No

[@norseca542]

this man keeps getting greater and greater in my eyes

[@jadesaddess]

I have my son studying Maynard as an assignment for the next two weeks. I know the pieces fit..🤓

[@JennTN411]

Great idea!!!!

[@alexm6312]

What

[@jubankta1627]

Why?Serioux wuestuon

[@Phillfloyd1]

Maynard is some sort of gnostic. Very into occult universal truths. There are hardly any people in this world worthy of studying like him. Good idea for your kid!

[@danielwalker6230]

🤘❤😂

[@reddalchemy5970]

I never noticed, but Maynard really has some very pretty eyes.But other than that discovery, this was really enlightening. VERY enlightening. Maynard is such a wonderfully diverse person and I love to watch anything about him. Do different from the "persona" that we think we see when watching him in TOOL and Puscifer, and A Perfect Circle. So staggeringly intelligent and multi-faceted, I absolutely love it.

[@thisis5123]

I’m going to sample the squelched squeal at 4:32 lol

[@sandragaudreault1886]

Can he actually be even more talented than that? I just can't proceed how much this guy do every day! This is what we call determination and hardwork! Wow. Respect. Loves him even more for that

[@LONE-WOLF-FILMS]

God i love this guy, whatever he does! :)

[@strom56]

It's so inspiring when you see someone who loves to work.

[@icecreampimpdeux]

Us fans: "So Tool, when you guys dropping new stuff?" Tool: 4:32

[@1dumpedviper]

"Life is absolute change and chaos". Absolute truth!

[@cristianfritiscalderon]

6:02 When you are your own bodyguard

[@chriscary516]

I let Maynard in my life since 94’ , I was 17. At 41 I still listen to this man as if I’m taking marching orders for life. God Bless Maynard. After seeing this series I feel so positive, and hungry to spiral out.

[@WhiskeyChick]

This is a great series.... how many episodes are there going to be?

[@revolver]

This is the final episode. Though we are also doing a three-part "Art of Work" series with Serj Tankian. Eps 1 and 2 of that are viewable on RevolverMag.com now.

[@jojoxoxo2073]

+REVOLVER really love the videos ! y'all are doing great things together !

[@kitpalmer1583]

2sacks1 lots of people. grow up

[@kitpalmer1583]

2sacks1 well considering they had two number one albums in the same year which puts them in a camp with about 5 legendary bands including the Beatles, a whole fucking lot. how sad is your life?

[@KirbSyde-vf4cf]

From 8:00 to 9:37 is exactly as I live my life. Granted, at the moment I'm unemployed & my family hasn't spoken 2 me n 5 yrs. I still feel I'm living the right way.
