Schism (Tool Cover) - Ernesto Schnack

[@buddhudd1054]

I can hear the words clearly that guitar is a great singer .

[@julianyamashiro6035]

Dude. It's true.

[@bipolarroidrage]

I had the exact same thought

[@valorrelics]

Thats the idea friend. Guitar always has a voice, you just need to know how to hear and play it

[@JarrodsTech]

I KNOW THE PIECES FIT

[@rickjames222222]

He really does capture every voice and every layer in a single instrument. It’s hard for people to understand what all he’s actually doing here to appreciate it as much as they should.

[@MrPopo40]

That's the beauty of finger picking, it unlocks the guitars full potential.

[@NooDLES411911]

@@MrPopo40 finger picking 4 different instruments on one is a God like feat

[@rat_king2801]

well hes playing it wrong soooo

[@borutbezgovsek4937]

This. I'm a noob and therefore it takes me much time to discover a new layer / detail he does. It's evergreen music.

Hello KZbin algorithm my old friend You’ve brought me rare gems once again

trueee!! :D

Benzimaru this is getting weird-this same type of comment is made on nearly all of these awesome/old recommended vids. True indeed, but why is this comment always there and in the number 1 spot? ...

[@johnpabst4349]

No Shit!! Amazing!

[@marcmarc4776]

Because the Tool sound is softly creeping Left its seed while I was sleeping

[@OurCelestialAnatomy]

His clarity, texture and attention to detail is out of the world.

[@mrcheesesmith]

If I was walking down the street and saw you playing this I would applaud you and throw $100 in your guitar case for this, 11/10 absolute masterpiece.

[@boyunderbridge]

Guess you don't do everything out of spite then 😉

[@edwardtupper6374]

And then piss on it

[@carloalbertopirastru9503]

No you wouldn't 'cause 100$ is quite a lot of money!

[@WinterInTheForest]

Bullshit

[@beckettstevens9529]

If you really would then you'd probably also buy $100 worth of his tabs to support him

[@addisonshinedown]

I hope that tool has heard your covers. they are the most interesting and beautiful covers I've ever heard.

[@ErnestoSchnack]

Me too, assuming they'd like them, haha. Thanks!

[@MarvRoberts]

I'm sure Maynard would love your covers. You nail every one of them, Ernesto. I've never heard an acoustic rock like yours. Your talent leaves me in awe.

[@addisonshinedown]

For some reason I don't know about Maynard, but I'm certain the rest of the band would be very impressed

[@irtheLeGiOn]

Maynard would say something self deprecating and along the lines of. This dude has more than enough talent to not play the shit we put out..

[@NunoLosch]

@DisforDubby maybe this is the year....

[@MarvRoberts]

Every time I see a new Ernesto video in my subscription feed, it feels like Christmas.

[@StarWolfer]

Ditto. I'm 10 seconds in......... and all those Tool;s song of him are so great that I get home and listen

[@durkadurka9711]

[@JaydonTanner]

FUCK GOOGLE it’s dickish if you’re doing it to aggravate them which this obviously was. Tool talks about such topics through artist manners and doesn’t force ideals on people. Maynard is very anti Trump but he doesn’t force his fans to as well. He featured a Trump monster in a music video but didn’t say “hey everyone hate trump!” Because that would be very dickish

This is amazing. He's playing guitar, percussion, and base at the same time... on a 6 string acoustic.

[@CarlosGonzalez-mp9re]

It was Andrés Segovia, if I remember well, who said that the guitar was like a whole orchestra in just one instrument.

[@brettparson3955]

one of the reasons the guitar is so popular in western music is because it can fill the role in a band as the melodic, the harmonic, or the rhythmic instrument. It's one of the most versatile instruments, and guys like this can really make it sing using all three roles at the same time as a solo instrument.

[@soakedbearrd]

and the singing notes as well.

[@dorsia6938]

The way you're able to capture multiple voices of the song WITH the dynamic elements is pretty insane, nice job man.

[@SharkWithFreakinLaserBeam]

2:05 slapped it like it owes him money dayum

[@adamgdeaton]

Maynard: Justin and Adam, you’re fired. Ernesto, you’re hired.

[@richardlucascronley5128]

He's practically playing the vocal part too who needs maynard lol

[@BaRNioNLaiN]

Wow... Just discovered you, Ernesto. I can't even dream playing a single full Tool song on my guitar, and here you are, playing all my favourites, drum, bass, guitar and melody at the same time... Incredible talent!!!! Are you sure you're human?

One of my all time favorite Tool songs, brilliantly done by this master.

[@Jboneabs3445]

Schism" I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away. Mildewed and smoldering. Fundamental differing. Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us so We cannot seem to reach an end crippling our communication. I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down No fault, none to blame, it doesn't mean I don't desire to Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over. To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication The poetry that comes from the squaring off between, And the circling is worth it. Finding beauty in the dissonance. There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall away. Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second guessing. Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our communication. Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion between supposed lovers, between supposed brothers, I know the pieces fit [8x]

[@TheDennzio]

when I googled Schism on acoustic I didn't expect anything so right on. Well done!! Set that D18 on fire!!!!

[@joachimengelstad2802]

You, my good sir, are a major distraction. I can't just listen to your epic guitar playing, watching you shred is equally mesmerising! Keep up the awesome work!

[@Thatdudedoes]

I LOVE this!!! I would totally buy his album of tool covers if he released it...

[@MikeOrionMusic]

im a simple man, i see ernesto schnack covering tool, i click it.

[@ChrisB8711]

Glad to see/hear more tool from you, this is amazing

[@ryantripp5082]

This is truly amazing as always man. Tool is my fav band of all time and your videos are just ridiculously great man lol. Can't wait to see what's next!!

Thanks! Hopefully the next one doesn't take me so long ;)

[@boseifrit5480]

Same. T00L rocks and so does this guy

[@mikehickman3635]

Just amazing, I've been playing guitar for more than two decades. I find all tool songs to be a very difficult guitar piece to play all the way through. Here this guy comes along and plays it flawlessly but also throws in the bass line drums and vocal sounds. Just outstanding🙏

[@totalmassretain6199]

Can you do ‘Wings For Marie?’ You’re so talented

[@dogukankuslar6121]

"how can i learn to play just like you man?" this question always comes to my mind every time i watch any of his videos.

This is why i love fingerstyle covers... you can hear original "vocals" 😎🤘🖤

[@valentineosullivan5890]

It's always a treat to listen to these covers. I appreciate the detail and effort in combining the different elements of each song, and then portraying them all with just one guitar. Very special and very relaxing... I love your work!

[@damnedlostsouls3648]

The best Tool covers I've seen so far

[@himynameis3664]

Love all your music. But it's always the Tool covers that I come back for, 6 years on and this is still as impactful as it was on the 1st listen. Your cover of "Right in two" is probably my favourite, genuinely never get tired of these and will honestly listen to these for many more years to follow. You're one of the most talented guitarists not only on KZbin, but out of all players I've come across you can see the passion and emotion you put into whatever piece you play. Never stop my man. You probably won't see this as the videos so old, but if somehow you do just know you've got legitimate fans out there.❤🙏

Great work! You deserve a standing ovation! This song is already difficult to understand while listening its riffs are hypnotizing but you never hesitated! great adaptation for 1 guitar!

KZbin decided I needed to hear this, and I'm not disappointed! I don't think I've heard a better translation of an entire song played on a single instrument before. You managed to capture everything from the vocals to the drums, and you did it all on an acoustic guitar! You have some incredible talent!

@@smerglederf3494 Okay, thanks. Some songs are more prominently out of tune than others. This is a pretty good one. Sounds like one or two of the strings is flat.
