FIRST TIME HEARING 'TOOL - Schism' | GENUINE REACTION

[@MollyBoyTV]

I had to really lower the opacity on this video so that KZbin wouldn’t block it again. Sorry if it’s annoying. I’ll only ever lower it if KZbin blocks a video, otherwise I’ll just post as usual!

[@MadMetalShop]

This should fall under fair use 100%

[@aaroncurle5466]

If you played guitar hero back in the day this was on guitar hero world tour I believe along with a few other tool songs. Maybe be why you thought you heard it before.

[@hanyolo3993]

If you like tool you should check out the singers other band 'A Perfect Circle'. Weak and Powerless or Judith would be great songs to check out from them!

[@ajrob77]

I’m a former bass player and it rips my soul out that people never realize that the driving guitar in this song is the bass guitar - Justin Chancellor. 😂 I get it though… SOOOO many things people think are Adam is actually Justin. He plays ridiculously melody passages so that Adam can weave his web of atmosphere for the song the live in.

[@MrMas9l]

I'm a bass player and when I first heard Tool I went crazy and learned all their songs. The bass sound is amazing, the effects are amazing, everything is exactly where it should be.

[@KobraKai79]

Justin is insane. He’s soooo good. I’m a drummer. TOOL. Best band in the Land!

[@nicp2039]

I learnt bass specifically to learn 46&2, not the best first starter song but hey, it’s what I wanted to learn. At least was basic as far as on a tool level :)

[@peterhineinlegen4672]

You can never go wrong listening to Tool from the bass' point of view. Same goes for Iron Maiden.

[@traceyclemons7800]

Letting you know...THIS GIRL LOVES Justin's basslines..He is waay under rated!

[@jacejan3128]

You hit the nail on the head. You don't just listen to TOOL. You feel TOOL viscerally in your being/soul.

[@scottsimms7651]

I was waiting for a Tool show on Broadway in Nashville in Jan 2020 listening to a country band that was quite competent musically, the lead singer conversed with the audience asking what they were doing tonight, someone yelled out “Seeing Tool!” Just then the bass player in this country quartet dropped into this Schism bass riff, I will never forget the looks on his bandmate’s faces as he shredded this riff. It was a phenomenal show.

[@RosettaStoned462]

Tool is the ONLY band that gives me feelings I've never felt listening to music. Tool fucking Tool 🔥❤

[@sif-cd3du]

Don't worry. With Tool you won't miss hearing them for the first time again, they only get better and better every time you hear them. They have been in my life for 30 years now and believe me, they will be the soundtrack of your life from now on

[@gmpsandw]

Dude something you said is spot on, I wish I could hear TOOL for the first time again. That's what gets me watching TOOL reaction vids. It kinda gives me the chance to relive that first time Vicariously, hint hint, through your ears.

[@brettkenschaft4239]

I think he may have done that one already.

[@TinfoilMonkG]

Exactly bro... I still tear up watching this young man be reborn. Again and again.

[@ThomasSmith-tx5dl]

Sober live Maynard's performance will shock you.

[@chrisweidner4768]

Indeed. Favorite live vocal performance. Ever, for this 65 yr. old.

[@celsus7979]

One video every Tool fan absolutely loves is the live version of Pneuma with the camera on the drums. You will appreciate the drummer 10X after watching it. Plus it's a great song. Cheers!

[@nozee77]

I second this!

[@questionme2]

I third this!

[@brettkenschaft4239]

Make it 4!!

[@Destros2ndone]

high five

[@jaredfreeman3361]

Six

[@robertbrenton6833]

APC Judith (Maynard's other band) + Wings for Marie + 10,000 days. All 3 in 1 session. You'll love it! Tells the emotional rollercoaster story of his Mom. Totally worth.

[@crystalscolza1663]

To get the storyline lyrics are a must for this trilogy.

[@thepooz7205]

Jimmy should be done with them too.

[@samvimesfan9779]

Grab some hankies. These hit hard. I heard em after my dad passed, the tears just came

[@laurabuer4714]

Gotta start with Jimmy, and end with Momma Sed (Puscifer).

[@davidward9737]

It sucks@!

[@jpkc86]

When you’re ready for Tool, and really Maynard, to just shred Hollywood… cue up Aenema!

[@charmingdevils]

💯

[@Irmelinis]

Always felt there is something PRIMAL and hypnotic with Tool's music. It's pulsating, it has a heart beat. It strikes a chord in certain humans, on a deep level. 🔥🔥🔥 love your Tool reactions.

[@KyleJustRuns]

“You’re puttin’ summin’ in dat music maate” is the best way I have ever heard Tool be described 😂😂😂

[@heavybrett-al4082]

One of the most spiritual band's to experience live in concert

[@mirandaspigener-sapon9770]

Omg their live shows are amazing

[@Godric_71]

Mollyboy now knows that the pieces fit.

[@thundacracka77]

First heard Tool in 1993. Be thankful you didn't have to wait for releases.

[@leithal1546]

Same. I’m jealous new listeners can just pull up a new album after hearing the previous one.

[@roach2go]

Yet every release is worth the wait...

[@patrickoneill6821]

Same here! They played on top of a parking structure downtown Pontiac, MI. They were instantly and forever my favorite band. The mushrooms didn't hurt either lol

[@TonyBudenz]

I feel this. Between Tool and Nine Inch Nails back in the day, there were YEARS between releases and we had to pay $15 for the CD.

[@leithal1546]

@@TonyBudenz they went longer between albums than led zeppelin were a band.

[@H46_2]

Goosebumps, hence, Tool Army!

[@zak2986]

You can hear these songs hundreds of times and still find pieces you never noticed before. They only get better the more you hear them, without getting stale over time, which is incredibly rare. Any band is lucky to have ONE song like that, and these guys have whole damn albums full of them lol

[@seamusburke639]

What I didn't know about this song for the longest time was that it alternates time signatures. For most of the song, they'll do a verse of 5/8, then 7/8, then back again. Then the "chorus" it's one bar of 6/8, then back to 7/8, then so on. It's what produces that weightless effect, where you feel like you're floating listening to this. The parts and the meter dance around each other but never resolve.

[@JeraldineChakko]

Fun fact !!! Jack Osborne was a huge Tool fan - possibly still is - once a Tool fan always a Tool fan !!! I actually spoke to him at a Tool show at the Wilturn Theatre back in - God I can’t remember what year it was but it was a long while ago !!!! Show was amazing! Still venture out to see them when they are playing in LA !!! Never miss a show !!! True musicianship by all 4 !!!!

[@leahpadgett7846]

The Grudge! The Grudge! The Grudge!!!!!!! Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Do it

[@MollyBoyTV]

I think i've already done it

[@jmarra07]

I typically recommend this as the first TOOL song for people who've never heard them. Just such a catchy riff

[@jasonrogers8754]

I've been a Tool fan since 95 I was 13 years old. Lol

[@toshirodragon]

Your face as you listen/watch is such a delight to watch.

[@mattblatchley2061]

one of their very best!!!

[@Emilie-one]

I’m also someone who feels music very deeply. I listen to a lot of different genres from a lot of different eras. there’s something special about music for me. I feel it so deeply… I look at it as a gift ❤ tool is one of those bands that you can listen to the same song over and over and pick up new ideas and feelings. I have listened to wings for Marie and 10,000 days 100 times at least, and each time I find some other focus in the music that I didn’t notice before or that were drowned out by something else. Tool is amazing!

[@joshuamasserant8215]

Tool has five (5) studio albums the most recent was in 2019. Fear Inoculum. 2019. 10,000 Days. 2006. Lateralus. 2001. Ænima. 1996. Undertow. 1993.

[@davidhart6291]

Bruv, loving your journey so far, keep the Tool reactions coming, they have so many goosebumps-causing moments in their music. Can’t wait for the next one! Cheers!

[@kurtkoch4147]

Just went to a Tool concert last month. Definitely into the 2000's

[@97silverlude]

Been listening to Tool for 25+ years and I it may be added nostalgia now, but the same songs get better and better for me. I haven’t ever thought about wanting to hear them again for the first time, but it has been really fun to watch you experience them fresh. Keep up the good content, brother.

[@foreveralone11w]

Saw tool in concert in 1999. Best mosh pit ever ❤

[@mstorrboy]

He's really starting to figure it out.

[@BusinessCasualLabCoat]

You should check out Mastodon, I think you would like them. Steambreather is my favorite song of theirs.

[@lostcomicjunkie2724]

Wicked reaction Brotha! It's cool to watch someone discover something that can change them. Tool certainly changed me in the early 90s. In my day, records, tape decks, then CDs in granite basements, or hours by the river, became home, school, and church. Music and friends. KZbin has really changed that. Wicked cool to see people all over the planet learn something new from other places. Keep discovering Brotha!

[@robertbradley6865]

Not your usual rock band. Love the production of the songs. Tremendous musicians with a single mind

[@laurabuer4714]

I spent that summer trying to get the perfect recording off the radio before the album was released. My new puppy, Chewbacca, was my constant companion.

[@Baldyjock4846]

The pieces fit perfectly when you watch the video. Changes the experience massively.

[@j.t.3798]

I envy you for hearing this for the first time. They're the 🐐 s

[@twitchysmurfy]

What they put in is pure technical and creative skills. The perfection isn't found many places. This was my first tool song and I've never looked back.

[@No_Dice200]

TOOL ARMY checking in.✌️

[@AnubisCEF]

I've never seen anyone react to Tool's cover of "You Lied" (by Peach) or the cover of "No Quarter (by Led Zepplin). Could you be the first? Are you the chosen one? 😅. Also, definitely check out some of Maynard's Puscifer music. Really crazy stuff. I envy those who get to hear all this stuff for the first time. I wish I could do that again.

[@larsbonzai]

Mollyboy: "This sounds really familiar from somewhere..." us Tool fools: you know the pieces fit.

[@MadMetalShop]

They've been around since the 90s and theyre still around. They release a masterpiece every 12 years or so 🤣

[@RichardMickle-n6i]

My insides are dancing and giggling 😊😊😊

[@how3218]

Such pleasure to see how people immerse into tool stuff

[@BWoody914]

You once asked what kind of genre category Tool fell under. I'd say they are indivualistic but fall under experimental metal, like Pink Floyd was individualistic but fell under an experimental rock sound. Perhaps they both deserve a brand new catagory all their own. Anyway you look at it, they're both unique in their respective genre's.

[@44coma]

Keep up the trend. You will find tool is the best band ever.

[@Scrub_Jake]

Gotta get this dude to see Sober live aye? Might be too much too early though 😅

[@danabomb100]

It’ll change his life! Lol

[@TinfoilMonkG]

I just binged all of your Tool reacts and i am sad they are over... Truly hope you drop 100 more. Watching your love afair with our Pride and Joy is like going to Church for me. I tear up still watching your mind get blown and the goosebumps invade. I think you are ready for "Right in Two." Its amazing (duh)

[@schenk2020]

Listening to Tool interviews you can just tell that they are truly a great band. They talk about how each member puts in their 25% to each song to come together to make 100%. There isn't one person to outshine or out perform another. They are one unit. How they make songs is that Justin and Adam put down the guitar tracks. Then Danny listens to it to come up with the beat. Then Maynard comes up with the perfect lyrics to complete the song. Its absolutely amazing how they work together.

[@celsus7979]

Such a special song!

[@antonytheolddog8626]

My gosh i love this choon so much. This is the aong when it was released that i knew I'd chosen the right band..

[@the1khronohs40]

No worries dude! I’ve been listening to tool for at least 20 years, probably a bit longer. The goosebumps are still here, and in some cases even better than ever! The more you get into the songs, and the more you understand them, the more chill the chills get! Tool is THE best drug I’ve come across in my life! ❤

[@MatthewPazzol]

They formed in '90. Ten years before you were born. Good tunes back then, good shows. It's fun to watch the raw intake. Here for it.

[@BattleTardigrade]

Yeah, they put something in their music. Cosmic Math and Elder God Logic. 🤘

[@mikeb36240]

Halestorm -'I Am The Fire"🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@billywix7313]

Good pick 💪

[@johnhawden4118]

They are coming to UK next year, go and see them live.

[@gdkjones]

Also PLEASE do a reaction to Pnuma live with the Danny Carey drum cam. I only advise this because you mentioned that the drums often catch your attention. Again, you WON’T be disappointed. LOVING your channel amigo. Keep on keeping on 👌

[@nozee77]

This!

[@nathancarmichael7050]

they help you get on to yourself so you can spiral out and be human. have a wonderful day

[@ChristopherHardy-d3l]

It gives goosebumps because it's real

[@peterandrews8191]

Still waiting for you to listen to a live version. This is it. Look up the same song with the drum cam. It will blow your mind!!

[@Pigwig83]

There really isn’t a Tool song that won’t affect you emotionally. Music obviously touches you as it does me. I do advise you do the discography from start to finish. The albums themselves are very intricately put together and ordered on purpose. Info: Aenima the 2nd album came out in 96. Fear Innoculum the latest album came out in 2019 I think

[@samvimesfan9779]

Jepp, FI was 2019. Was at my first Tool concert that year ( what an experience), was a couple weeks before it released.

[@jefftibble766]

I don't know if you have heard yet or not but Adam Jones, lead guitar does the graphics for the videos. That is what he did pre Tool. Pnuema, drum camera will blow your mind. I watch it all the time, never gets old

[@trevormellis1041]

The live version of “sober” is a must watch live. And Danny Carey’s Pneuma Live in concert is also a mind blower. Check them out

[@robertjones4361]

They're so Fucking Good! And they've been at it for 30 plus years...saw them live in 1994 for the first time

[@scottdreger7137]

Might be Toolsest Tool song . More than music

[@LeftUntilRight]

They are trying to expand your mind, one way or another lol. very clever music. I imagine they might hope for more critical thought wide scale as many of us often do. Chill video bro. good vibes. Next Pneuma. get on it bruv. 🙃

[@dyingbreed5386]

Still around, still touring, and still putting out misuc. If you really like them I highly suggest going to a live show. I have seen over 100 bands live (likely far more) in the last ~30 years ranging from Metal, to HipHop, Techno, Classic Rock, and everything in between. These guys easily make my top 3 bands to see live at and I don't believe the other 2 still tour. Best thing is venue size doesn't seem to matter, saw them in a little club holding

[@davidcook8278]

Another of the genius that is Maynard is 'puscifer' so so many amazing songs...... 'Bullet train to Iowa' , 'Toma' etc etc etc. Just amazing.

[@FL_CORPSE]

One of my favorite of tool. Im begging you to play Eulogy. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@WillFlyTheLightingGuy]

The videos are made by the guitarist, Alex Jones. He did movie special effects before Tool took off, and worked on some of the biggest blockbusters of the early 80s - mid 90s (Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Aliens, Terminator 2, Jurassic Park). And yes, the videos are very strange.

[@JANGUS-13]

Adam jones the guitarist for tool used to work in Hollywood making models and claymation type things he made some dinosaurs for Jurassic park the movie. He directs and designs a lot of the videos for tool they are always very good

[@Baldyjock4846]

Dude your speech at the end was fuckin class! Good boy!

A Schism is a split or division between strongly opposed sections or parties caused by differences in opinions or beliefs. It’s a fight to be heard

Make another eligible spot for "passenger" by Deftones. Has Maynard as guest vocals. If ya wanna hear another good singer in metal from mid 90's, Deftones is a solid band. Chino can sing man

[@retired4365]

They are putting odd time signatures in your head. Buhaaaaa😂

[@gabrielmorse9306]

I’d definitely recommend Invincible. Outside of Tool, if you want anything band/song that’ll give you goosebumps is KMFDM. They have a song called Ultra that’ll get you pumped. Amazing song. First time I heard it was in the Street Fighter 2 anime. Sick fight scene between Chung Li and Vega.

[@thechops2000]

8:29 whole body chills I get them all the time, with many genres of music, even opera. Only about 25% of people get chills (consistently) during music. We also get a little hit of dopamine. There’s a lot of physiology to go along with that, but essentially our brain (people that consistently get chills while listening to music) experiences emotion stronger than those who don’t get chills. There are many studies on the subject, it’s fascinating if you’re into that kind of data 🤓

[@Paul-w9l5y]

This really brings back memories my brother and I going out in the woods and parking smoking grass and having a few sips off the bottle great times! Did you ever listen to lets Roll ? Yellowolf featuring Kid Rock
