O.k. Polo, this is like another song by Tool, AEnema, Descending picks on, I think anyway, us, the people, and our misunderstanding of music, maybe we miss so much beauty in music because we as people don't pay enough attention to what else is out there,.. and then all of a sudden it takes a band that nobody expected, Tool, to try and convey that message through the type of music only an intellect would listen to.. ironic really, but that's just Tool.

[@MEOW151]

I have a question... fully blind review? As in opening file and a listen....

[@3723tina]

I’ve commented on almost all of your TOOL reviews so I’ll keep it short but if you’re digging the tribal vibe please, please listen to “Right in Two” it’s a fan favorite but one of the most unrated songs TOOL does. Thank you for keeping an open mind! So glad you found the Nirvana of TOOL ❤😊

I'm loving your Tool reviews. I've heard these songs hundreds of times - watching you react is so wholesome I wish I could buy you a pint!

[@woebringer7884]

@@HellaKwik On point analysis there…Tool goes from one end of the meat grinder in tribal thrash beats to octave and note/rhythm changes that make grown men tear and tremble. The first shows I witnessed in the early 90’s were heavily that meat grinder (experienced from the center of a suffocating mosh pit) and by the late 90’s they’d near mastered every layer of complexity. Every decade since has only refined the entire process with each album pushing deeper limits of pleasure and pain. Hoping there’s still a couple more albums they can continue to squeeze out for our unworthy ear holes.

The opening being "sleepy" and "hypnotic" is spot on. The song is about the collapse of civilization. The opening lyrics are about how we as a society have become unaware that we're descending, "heedless in our slumber". It starts to build with "stir us from/our wanton slumber/mitigate our ruin". and a then gets really big when he sings "Sound the dread alarm" with a massive call to arms to save ourselves.

Maynard is the king, of what I call "Novel Verses" .. When a single verse or a few words are so deep, paint such a vivid picture..... It would take an entire book to explain it completely Some of my favorites are.,.. "Caligula would grin"...if you know your Roman history, , Caligula, a.k.a. little boots", taste ran toward the darker, more twisted, surly insane directions. "There's no love in fear"......It would take an unabridged dictionary to unpack that one completely. "Swing on the spiral of, your divinity and still be a human"..... WOW, .. Yeah .....At least a full encyclopedia Britannica set needed. " God damn, shit the bed"...... So universally understandable, so relatable, it transcends language.

I'm really enjoying your videos. Descending is a super important song in my family. I flew my sons Mason and Cole from CA to VA in 2019 to see Tool for their first time. We were graced with a preview of Descending with the album not coming out until August. During the song Mason leaned over to me and said "we're watching gods perform!" Live it has a crazy ability to synchronize the crowd and connect everyone. Hard to explain but the energy is very high and it can be life changing. We lost Mason almost 2 years later (and almost 2 years ago to the day) and we play this song on his anny as a memorial because of how it hit him at that show. It changed his life. Super important song - almost perfect...

[@localhoast2009]

This is my current favorite Tool song. There are other masterpieces in your future. This song, to me, is about how humanity has only been on earth for a short time, has screwed up, is about go extinct, and should fight to preserve life our place on this planet.

Not say that this is necessary, but a personal choice - In the spring I listened to this song after eating a small handful of sacred fungus. I was in the woods crying my eyes out under the beauty of the trees and clouds..I was gyrating like some kind of Egyptian goddesses feeling SO MUCH. Memories of Iraq turned into memories of love and understanding as I grew. As humanity struggles to overcome our negative traits we learn the true power of our light.

Danny's drumming in the long instrumental section is just out of this world. The way he plays these polyrythms and moving the feel around is absolutely mindblowing. I play the drums for over 20 years and I can play quite good but man I wish I had Danny Carey's mind when it comes to writing drumparts. He's one of the all time greats and I'm glad I've seen him play live several times. TOOL is a must see live band and they won't be doing this forever so if you have the chance, go experince them in concert. You will have a fantastic, memorable evening.

[@realbser1956]

As I listen to Tool for the first time along with you, I get the same feeling that I had many years ago when I first heard the Fragile, Close To The Edge, Tales From Topographic Oceans and Relayer albums by Yes. I guess lightning does strike twice. Love your reactions. Great channel.

[@Jaysun1]

Tool ---- Parabol/Parabola. Back to back as if listening to 1 song. You're gonna love it.

[@famijher]

I discovered Tool back in the 90's, when they actually released a couple of videos on MTV back in the days when MTV stood for Music Television. I immediately bought anything I could find from them. And yes, at the time, I'd listen to their music to go to sleep to, so go for it, it'll work.

[@Jadedxx]

I have their box set with the CDs and music videos I bought in the 90s! Very Tim Burton-esq

[@himynameis3664]

This is up there with my favourite Tool songs. The way the instruments are composed and just the way Maynard put together the message behind these lyrics. It gets me in the feels every single time

[@bg874]

I grew up listening to country and 70s with my parents. Now Garth and Boston are still gods. But when I learned of Tool at 15ish... I didn't even know I was listening to metal. I for real went to sleep listening to songs like this while staring at my lava lamp

[@tantan313]

Your facial reactions are the best. They convey what we're all feeling when we listen to Tool. I do hope you have a chance to catch them live one day. They actually sound better live than in the studio. Hearing these songs live is an experience I have trouble putting into words.

[@markwillis675]

Now for your next favorite song, "Right in two. "

[@DerBomster]

I'd really like to see a new Tool album in the next few years, but if there's nothing more, I'd be satisfied because they managed to get Descending out in 2019. Really one of my favourite songs of all time,

[@shanejovanovic6073]

perhaps it truly was their swan song...

[@dan62273]

Fear Inoculum is the greatest achievement in the history of music in my opinion.

[@AnimuLLLL]

@@shanejovanovic6073 Yes, it’s the epilogue 😢

[@jasonphilc]

People will react to Tool just like this forever, because Tool is forever.

[@ryangibson7706]

I really enjoy your reaction videos. Gets me through another day. Thank you for being a good person.

[@tylero8595]

Ive been listening to Tool since 92". Ive seen them many times now. Catching them again in October here in Vancouver. They are the best live. On acid. The greatest band. Ever.

[@Ad0rak]

When I heard Tool for the first time, it was 2003 ... two years after Lateralus came out but it was still the Album that introduced me to Tool. Oddly enough, back then I guess I wasn't mature enough (mind you, english is not my native language and I was just 16 and couldn't comprehend the lyrics). I somehow forgot about them and basically rediscovered them 7 years later in 2011. That time it was 10000 days and I became a true fan and have been ever since. I really love all their music today and the long waiting period for the new album was definitely worth it and "Descending" might just be my favorite track (but it's close as I love every song)

[@dzonz4274]

I feel like this song is about both the journey of the band and the existential risk faced by humanity

[@ElenaSferly]

Tool take you on a journey, They leave you confused, but delighted. 🌀

[@valdi1523]

Polo, dude we waited 13 yrs for this album and they did not disappoint! Your description of thier music, his voice, and lyrics is spot on! ☮️ So glad you are walking through this wonderful journey with us! 🎶🎤🎸🥁

[@davidwest5506]

I'm 45. Tool has been my go to since 1993.Every song creates, translates, interpretation of a mood that you are experiencing in your life. That is what is beautiful. I have always felt that these guys understand and convey the universal feelings we all share, i.e. pissed, sad, elation, frustration, solitude, on and on. Open interpretation, and,in my opinion, is my favorite attribute of this band.

[@audreywatko1078]

Love Reading the comments... Its amazing how many souls have been effected by this Powerful Band. I remember my first Tool Concert and Maynard saying " Can You Feel it? CAN YOU FEEL THE LOVE? IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FEELING...TOOL ARMY LOVE🎶❤

[@evanlitchfield4621]

My new favorite song to see reactions to, the song hypnotizes everyone and then they start descending with the song. I love when a song makes you feel like you're rising up, or descending. Or like it's the perfect introduction or finale to a movie.

[@sjk4823]

I remember when I bought my first TOOL album in 2001 when Lateralus come out back in my first year of high school. I would literally sleep to it on loop every night. Then I kept buying more and more. TOOL seriously got me through high school and college. Love the videos man!! Keep up the good work and welcome to the TOOL Army!! “we got him boys!!” 😂

[@dpaquette69]

You’re my favorite current Tool reaction person! Keep ‘em coming! More great songs in your future.

[@sarafrey3163]

Tip of the iceberg! You've got to experience a young, angrier Tool! Crawl away, swamp song, flood, undertow. I mean, really just need to do everyone of their albums! They're all fantastic!

[@americanhwyflower]

Ooo Flood is sooo good. I always forget how good it is until I hear it again.

[@GenoOwings]

Been a TOOL fan for many, many years and each time I listen it's EPIC! The only band to ever do that for me! Love your reactions! Keep up the great work!

[@patdeen3960]

This entire album is so inspirational. Every song, or rather the 5 or 6 tracks that are actually songs, are all like reading poetry. This album feels like the band just jammed out while Maynard slowly blended meaningful lyrics in, and let the band shine.

[@alanwolters9651]

Love your reactions - don't worry about pausing and rewinding. We enjoy your enjoyment and discovering of the greatness of Tool's music.

[@richpeltier9519]

When you've been living with their music for 30 years and watch them grow to this point, it's not just an experience... it's quite literally for many, a religious experience. I've been searching this planet for 5 decades, looking for evidence of magic. The closest that I've come is music. TOOL is Pink Floyd for the new millennium. 🤘🧙‍♂️🤘 Rich the Ancient Metal Beast

[@Kathie4]

I love your comment. I've been going back through some of my favorite tracks over the last couple of years. It's great music during & after an existential crisis 😆

[@m.ericwatson968]

Your balance contraption is pretty cool to watch while hearing this track, fits perfectly with this music in it's seeming randomness but there is a pattern, a subtle cause and effect that is fascinating and becomes mesmerizing...these guys spent a few years crafting this album, they took their everloving sweet time and the results are astounding. This album is great on a road trip, late, late at night/early morning, (almost) alone on a highway

[@dougparker1968]

Its awesome watching you go on this Tool journey. Dont worry about the pauses and the rewinds. The Tool Army understands and we love watching and experiencing it with you. I suggest you do Schism or 46 and 2 next. You'll love those as well

[@TR-gv3bd]

My TOOL recommendation is Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned. It’s definitely an EXPERIENCE. Definitely have the lyrics handy though. It’s such a trip haha 😂

[@jtrem08]

Need to include Lipan Conjuring for the full effect!

[@SonicHypnosis]

A Tool song is a Multi Experience, it's like traveling to 6 different galaxies and experiencing a few things from each one. The way they weave and blend the vocals and each instrument together is smooth and flawless. They are unique in every way. Enjoying your reactions and look forward to you hearing more amazing songs by Tool. Cheer's

[@pavelbreza9190]

tool is my favorite band and this song hits different

[@mudbutt42]

The two Tool songs that I think would fit the soundtrack of a movie, at the end or a fight scene, Triad and Right in Two, waot til you get to them

[@slycooper7513]

I go in and out of fazes with Tool where all other muisic just becomes obsolete. This band is just something special

[@thisistheyear99]

Great reaction! Fun to watch. Thank you to the person who requested it too. I don't know another band that can play music that heavy that's at the same time so meditative. I feel like that about many Tool tracks. That's why laying down in the dark with a full album of theirs is a must at some point on your journey with them 👁🙌🏼

[@thisistheyear99]

Made my night btw!

[@davidyoung3792]

Naw, love the pauses and rewinds. Your channel makes me wanna hear your Tool Spotify playlists and any other playlists you'd put together. EDIT: Also, I like listenting and watching because you may not be a music professional, but you have a better appreciation than I do. So listening to you discover and break it down helps me to develop that greater appreciation as well. Keep on with the Stank Face man!

[@davidbailey6397]

Before you know it,you’ll be member of the Tool Army. Christen yourself by seeking the nearest concert they are playing . An incredible experience . Tool took the mantle of performance form Pink Floyd and Rush.

[@jaejohnson6112]

I guess it's a song about the tragedy of the human experience. Thank you for the great reaction video, as an empath, it was an experience.

[@JosiahMayfield_1]

Suggestions: "Right in Two" and "46 and 6" are a couple of songs I think you'll really enjoy, and that would get lots of view.... they will quickly become a couple more of you favorites! Really enjoy your reactions.. you come across as open, honest, and sincere in your experience, and that's what i like. You can only hear music or experience art for the first time once, but these reaction videos are like a second chance to hear them for a first time... another cool avenue you should consider (if you haven't already) would be to do movie reactions... I think you would find a quick path to monetization... good luck... if you do movie reviews, a few movies I'd enjoy seeing your reaction to, if you haven't seen them already,.. are: "American History X", "Shawshank Redemption", " Green Mile" just to get started...

[@laughinop5443]

My favorite song of all time is right in two, and my favorite movie is Shawshank. So this comment resonated with me.

[@juneslugg2]

I never get tired of pauses and rewinds. I re-experience it through you in the same way.. and then I get to relive it Vicariously through you. I appreciate you you listen to music
