THEY ABSOLUTELY SMASHED THIS COVER! | Tool - No Quarter (Led Zeppelin Cover) | First REACTION!

What an amazing tribute to a truly unique original track🔥🔥 Tool does it again 👏🏻👏🏻

[@Gluetee699]

Congratulations Drew, you have now been indoctrinated into the Tool Army, be proud my friend. 👍

[@mendyrckz76]

Great Reaction Drew! Loved you're expressions as the song was progressing. I knew you'd love it Drew. Tool could take any song. And literally turn it around. FYI Maynard does a cover of Elton John's Rocket Man with his other band. Maynard and his bands really do great tribute covers. You should give it a listen. It's not No Quarter of course. But he does the song justice with his voice nonetheless.

[@DeaconIvory]

One of your best reactions. Cheers!

[@deadliftdaniels1406]

Drew Fortune Just want to let you know that Ronnie Radke posted a reaction video of you reacting to his song “Popular Monster”. Check it out brother and keep posting these reactions. Requesting “The in-between” by In this moment.

[@jrayez4995]

I knew you were going to love it better Drew because your ears are now "tuned" for Tool. I'm not saying Led Zeppelin isn't good or their version isn't good but Tool just takes it to another level. Led Zeppelin is amazing for the time period they crushed. I see where Tool takes a lot of influence from them in their music but man Tool is just so much more clean and easy to listen to. Love other LZ songs like Stairway to Heaven but No Quarter belongs to Tool in my eyes...er...ears. Great review and long awaited!

Tool really went to another level when Justin joined the band on the Aenima album

[@Qliphirot]

Half the songs on AEnima were written with Paul, here with No Quarter bass lines as well, Tool started playing it during Undertow's tour in 94. So apparently it was a natural progression still when Paul was in the band.

[@pocketeights8]

Paul was an extremely good bassist for Tool when he was there. I saw them live with both and honestly, its really close. I will say that Justin is growing to the point where he is truly one of the best in the world at what he does.

[@kylereece1979]

I remember me friend burning this and the salival version of Pushit onto a CD for me in 2002. Id known the original Zeppelin version for about 4 years at that point. I love the original-it sounds like a soundtrack to a dark, cold snowy nite as somebody is wading through a wide open plain, trying to get home. It creates a scene to zone out and into when listening. The murky piano, woozy vocal and phased out cosmic riffs from Jimmy Page- I wondered how Tool would rework it. And while the keyboards and freaked out psychedelia has been replaced with Tools own soundscapes and trademarks, Jaysus, did they knock this one outta D'hurling pitch. I remember taking the CD home, listening to it in my room,curtains closed,mesmerized. After the first chorus, at the 7 minute mark in this vid- they totally take the track on a trip of their own, with a 5 minute visceral odyssey. Its not in the original song,lulling you into a beautiful, mournful passage of music, before chugging down the drama of riffs. Then, back into the main body of chorus it travels. Then, another new section- a big, kick ass rolling rock finale, similier to the main rif of 46&2 shuttles the song to its shattering finale. Awesome. This one has indeed been requested for ya o'er the weeks,and Im glad y'got to experience both versions and enjoy em. I do prefer Tools version meself aswell,but this amazing reworking exists because the original classic was carved out back in the day. Great reaction, lad.

[@dramacidal6998]

You my friend have the perfect way of explaining the experience you take when you listen to both versions but especially this one. Both very special, unique and one of a kind bands that transcend their time and I wish the younger generation can appreciate what Tool does for music and how incredibly special they really are because we'll never see a band like this again especially with the crap on the radio nowadays.

[@SteveReddington]

I saw Zeppelin in 1975 or 6 20th row at the long beach area and no quarter was 45 minutes. I stood on my chair and actually passed out standing up for 10 minutes or so. Best concert I have ever seen. 4 hours of Zeppelin.

[@coinraker6497]

Can't be a coincidence that last night I watched a video of Danny Carey at the Grammys saying , "All the great drum gods that came before, namely John Bonham, Tony Williams and my good friend Neil Peart", and today I see this video of Tool covering a Zeppelin song.

[@RailfanJason]

My god I'd forgotten just how astonishingly good this cover is, been years since I last heard it. I need it on my Spotify dammit!

[@details78]

"Fookin' hell!" I got a chuckle right there. An appropriate response to any first time listening of a Tool song. I've been enjoying this one for years. My understanding is that when Robert Plant first heard this he really dug it as well. "Maynard's Dick" is an obscure older track by Tool. Maybe put that one in the Que for another time.

[@nmchaser]

Been waiting a while to see this.... I love to watch your reactions for a couple reasons. 1) because it's just awesome seeing the face of someone that's being blown away for the first time by a Tool song, but also 2) because I still to this day find myself blown away and have been listening to them since the late 90s. Trust me, dude.... I feel what you're feeling. Sometimes people ask me what my favorite tool song is... Day to day that changes across the entire spectrum... But No Quarter is just fucking ridiculous every time I hear it. Good shit, drew... I know you react to lots of music, but I thank you for sharing this with us.

Such as the original Garage Days Re-revisited, $4.98 E.P. from 1987.

[@mkswk09]

To add a couple more great ones- Joe Cocker covering “With a Little From My Friends” and The White Stripes covering “Jolene”

[@shardsofcontent4829]

I like it a lot, and Tool is genius, but it is a different song. A “version” perhaps, but not really a “cover” anymore.

[@mkswk09]

Shardsofcontent I’d have to disagree. The guitar riff and the vocal melody is pretty much the same it’s a cover just in Tool’s way of doing it. I would say a different version would be rage against the machine doing Maggie‘s Farm as opposed to how Springsteen did it.

The thing I love so much about so many Tool songs including this cover, is that you can put it on.... On your stereo or with headphones, sit back in your favorite comfy chair, put your head back, close your eyes and get lost on the epicly incredible journey that you are being guided through. The emotions they can make you feel is outstanding.

[@HarryWful]

The only other band thatll make you feel this is Pink Floyd. At least for me nothing comes close to Tool and Pink Floyd. I highly recommend 'Dogs' or 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond" by Pink Floyd.

[@stefanconradsson]

My immediate reaction is that it is the best cover of the song that I have heard among many. It is eerily similar for long stretches and then breaks of on its own. The impetus in Zeppelins version is about endurance and endless journey .. the dread of slowly moving time. Hence the "melancholic" breaks with keyboard (especially in live concert). This version is much more brutal. Time is running out and we need to move. The riffing at the end was just fantastic and I love it. Live versions with Zeppelin all differ, some versions are more upbeat and "happy" while other versions are "melancholic" if that is even the appropriate word. Brooding and slow and just dark. It is futile. TOOL thinks there is victory, Zeppelin does not. 🍺
