20K SUBS LETS FUCKING GO!!!🎉

[@ProBoltForever456]

Let's Fucking Go

[@Thundrerr]

we need lateralus

[@TeeHeeTwinkleToes]

Lateralus is PEAK

[@Fulcrumsw5]

He will learn how the pieces fit

[@theunborn33]

We need both. Lateralus was the logical progression from this. Aenima was a masterpiece already. Blew me away back in these days.

[@dustinglascoe565]

You need Lateralus.

You're a gentleman and a scholar.

[@Ztranger560]

BROOO!!! Congratulations for the 20k, you deserve it. This album is fire btw, you have to react to their entire discography, not a single bad album

[@nero6342]

These songs get better over time as well, the album is one of my favorites

[@Gideonite]

Jimmy is even more tragic when you know it’s true background. The song is the start of the singers journey about his struggle with losing his mother eventually to her illness. His name was James Herbert Keenan and his Mom was named Judith Marie Keenan. When the singer was 11 she had a bad stroke that left her wheelchair bound and other nerve issues. She struggled with her disability for 27 years or (10,000 Days) before she passed when he was 38. When the singer became famous at the start he legally changed his name to Maynard James Keenan. He did not want to be called Jimmy if he was famous because Jimmy was the name she called him as a kid. He letter wrote a song with his second band A Perfect Circle about his struggle with her faith named Judith. Later in 2006 Tool released their 4th album in honor of her called 10,000 Days. This album includes a two part song that is a pseudo eulogy for his mother. Wings for Marie Part 1 & Wing Part 2 (10,000 Days). Maynard has said in more recent interviews he regrets how personal he got with sharing his relationship with her but accepts it’s done. Another great song about Maynard’s mom is Momma Sed from his third band Puscifer. Yes this man has three bands he still tours with all three in his early 60s. Also has a winery and vineyard he runs between tours in Arizona.

Sidenote: saturn takes 27 years to make a turn a round the sun

[@anzu9232]

im pretty sure he did not legally change his name he just adopted a nickname he got in military academy that they had given him his real name is still James Herbert Keenan his stage name is Maynard James Keenan

[@causekyle]

The downward spiral by Nine Inch Nails. One of the best story telling albums ever... Congrats on 20k subs dude. ive been a silent viewer for awhile but damn if i dont fw your content. appreciate you

[@DJMAERZ]

The fact that when you got up this morning, you had no idea this existed and ended the day as a fan is pretty fucking cool to me.

[@Ubarberet]

Danny(their drummer) had this to say about "Message to Harry Manback" in an interview: "Message to Harry Manback is a recording of the words of an uninvited Italian guest who came to Maynard's house one day. A so-called friend of a friend of a friend of Harry's .... Before we finally managed to figure out that nobody really knew him, he had already emptied the fridge and run up a huge phone bill. He got kicked out of the house." Harry Manback is a pseudonym for the real recipient of the message, presumably a past roommate of Maynard's: Hotsy Menshot of Green Jello.

[@viking_nor]

So he was a Kramer

[@LymLevolveon]

LET'S FUCKING GOOO, I NEED ALL TOOL ALBUMS NOW 🔥🔥🔥

[@johncarpenter3751]

Subbed for the TOOL reaction!! I always love seeing new tool reactions from genuine people. I’m so glad that you love the second track Eulogy! My best friend Edwin always said “if you’re going to introduce someone to TOOL, then it better be that song”

[@alexanderhamilton158]

i saw tool in concert in 2023 and they played hooker with a penis. hearing the whole crowd screaming "fuck you buddy" was so funny. they are amazing in concert

[@66marbor]

I've seen them 6 times...5 times where they could have played this one but didn't...cool.

[@PolluxFeyd10191]

Tool fans are the worst. Maynard knew it way back then. Lol

[@damienfallon8980]

The song is a critique of modern overstimulation culture from sex to the media to everything. Fisting is a metaphor

[@stephenmorelli6741]

An entire album review of my favorite band, and my favorite album, ok subscribed and liked . Happy thanksgiving to me

[@stephenmorelli6741]

So lateralus next , and I have a hunch that 10,000 days album will be your favorite. But go in order!

[@willsONfireBeats]

I love their guitarist, Adam Jones' playing style. Rather than playing the flashiest, technical solos, he creates a feeling of suspense and a brooding atmosphere with feedback , pick scrapes etc. Loved the react, looking forward to more Tool and other artists!

[@reginasamilpa44]

My favorite album from my favorite band, "Eulogy" is my favorite song. 30+ year fan, no one compares. 4 masters of their crafts. #Toolforever

[@macktlo9]

Its wild how on every relisten, my favorite song keeps changing.

[@themadcow71]

Your life will never be the same. Can't wait for this reaction!

[@theprofessionalidiots3109]

I would highly recommend watching a live recording of one of tools songs (my choice would probably be the Pneuma live Danny Carey drum cam) it’s one thing to hear the songs, but watching them perform them live really highlights how incredible they are at their instruments

[@kencer8320]

This album is great but Lateralus gonna blow your mind it’s one of the best albums ever made in the history of music imo

[@garri5108]

It’s as mediocre as this one, stop with fanaticism

[@LymLevolveon]

​@@garri5108well tbh mediocre for you, changed my life forever

[@psilocydee]

@@garri5108youre more pretentious than the average tool fan

[@garri5108]

@@psilocydee sorry I just tired with every channel getting ruined by Tool fans or Pink Floyd fans. This reaction channel was really genuine, I hope it stays like that

[@psilocydee]

@garri5108 understandable man, tool fans can be annoying pricks to the point to where the band themselves hate a majority of their fans

[@romahkao]

Bro finally posted it. Fire album

[@jamesnewman9547]

Been waiting for the tool reacts! You'll find many SOAD fans are also Tool fans. I think you're going to really enjoy the albums after this one.

[@anthonyv6962]

The sugar cookie song is the best troll. Feels like some real WWII German type shit.

[@alexl8065]

This album is truly a masterpiece! Watch through the whole thing. I love watching people discover tool. Please listen to more tool! Lateralus album is another masterpiece. Spiral out! 🌀🤘

[@stanreaper3080]

I wish their other albums had tracks like "intermission". I love how it creates the same melody from Push It but as a carnival organ song

[@andrewmiller218]

Already watching your whole reaction through a second time. I can tell it’s going to be one of my favorites from you. Keep it going brother, you are doing excellent!

[@carbon1479]

29:33 - 'H' is about becoming a father, ie. when he had his first son. This song is Maynard beating on himself for his perceived unprocessed trauma and felt lack of preparation for that responsibility and role.

[@rotary1742]

Yess I’ve been wanting this one for a while, thanks for listening to it!! Fun fact, Maynard (the vocalist here) was the guest feature in Deftones’s Passenger. LISTEN TO 10,000 DAYS AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!!

[@carbon1479]

The way I'd describe Tool - having a wide range of musical interest, they're like the Photek of prog rock. Super-deep and liminal.

[@420NEWYcod]

aenema is one of them songs i had on repeat for awhile.

[@johncarpenter3751]

1:31 yes when I think of great music, I do think of this album. But for me I was 16 in 1998 and that’s when I discovered TOOL and this album changed my life

[@Witxhcraft]

Good job on the 20k man I’m proud of you bro

[@qyxte]

Bro you HAVEEEE to do 10,000 days. I’ve been watching you for a fat minute and I’ve been wanting you to listen to tool for so long. They really are one of the best bands out there.

[@tacotacotacobajablast6821]

tool is just watered down Pearl Jam.

[@qyxte]

@ Brodie you got no idea what you’re talking about. 😂

[@dankiusarmwrestlingTaranBroad]

​@tacotacotacobajablast6821 bruh they ain't even the same genre. They have almost nothing in common

[@JonnySativaSeed]

"I dont miiiiiiind!!!"

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

Notice the sound in Intermission is a precursor to jIMMY? And those sugar cookies also included Turkish Haschisch (Weed)

[@Natty_arturo]

The song that poped in yo head in a nursery song! “Row row row your boat. Gently down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily. Life is but a dream” 1:51:57

[@LymLevolveon]

No it's Ego Brain by System of a down

[@centerofthecircle666]

1:52:02 The song you were singing was Ego Brain by SOAD

[@kylesucksatvideogames2534]

Lateralus next!

[@Chainsawman-tc7zs]

Lateralus when ⁉️⁉️⁉️

[@brentrayis6223]

Great reaction, "I don't mind" the long reaction

[@johnseward2934]

I feel like I just watched someone get both their musical mind blown open, and be born a Tool fan. Aenima and Lateralus are both at this level. You should listen to it next.

[@yeetman9325]

1:51:47 Ego Brain - System Of A Down

[@n_o_n_t_u]

Good, now you need to react to their albums "Lateralus" and "10,000 Days" ASAP.

[@prefono]

Welcome from TOOL Army! This is only the beginning!

[@kabashima8472]

bro doing thumbnails now 👑👑

[@connorpollak319]

Lateralus

[@B0DYH0USE]

"I was bout to say something crazy" ... Little did he know he was absolutely right 😆

[@m3tamonk3y4]

No better band. Killed my love of other bands. No one compares. They changed my life.

[@Fulcrumsw5]

Idk if this is a hot take but one of the greatest parts about tool is the drummer Danny Carey. He’s an absolute monster on the drums in every song he plays. As a drummer myself I absolutely love ut

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

Eulogy has some obscure lyrics that a lot of "official" systems have incorrect or missing. My own sin, not existence, followed by "I'm just glad you knew me well enough to let me always sit beside you, so mad since we stopped following your commands, you weren't too mad when he called, your mind is helpless."

[@andyb7638]

I can’t tell you how many times tool’s put me to sleep! 😂 or how many times they’ve woke me up!

[@chrismendez9331]

Band: Primus Album: Frizzle Fry 🙏 ???

[@scrubsscrubs694]

I've never seen someone react to Tool before without mentioning the druming, lol

[@LZ10366]

TOOL are definitely a band where each member is at the top of their game. Guitarist - Adam Jones, Drums - Danny Carey, Bass - Justin Chnacellor and Singer - Maynard James-Keenan. Lateralus next! And definitely try listen to each members parts through the songs, they are top notch!

[@UsefulIdiot77]

Bruh I discovered this album when I was in grade school going through old CD’s my dad had and I got absolutely mind fucked 😂 it’s been my favorite album of ALL time and I’m 28 years old now lol you gotta check out Lateralus from them next for sure

[@icemanmma3530]

FUCKING FINALLY, WATCHING THIS TOMORROW

[@O-666]

I love that you really latched onto Eulogy. So good!

[@Prsboy78]

The symbolism of Tool's music is everything and relatable to almost anything. Replace the sexualised reference to any addiction (drugs, alcohol, sex, phone, gambling) or even watching horror................. You need more to feel. 46 and 2 is about a metamorphosis (46 chromosomes plus 2) evolving. Tool's music is thought provoking and encourages personal mental intelligence growth and not to get stuck in the sheep like meaningless existence. Great reaction 👏

[@TDOG_FC]

Yo congratulations on 20k🎉 well deserved When will grey chapter be out on yt?

Loving the thumbnails man!

[@heyskipj]

It was Eulogy for me. Second song second LP. Instant Goat tier.

[@heyskipj]

That’s even before Forty Six & 2!

[@marmarsmandalas]

Long live TooL❤

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

And it was only the first, third, fifth and thirteenth songs that got radio play. Funny, there are at least thirteen Tool songs over nine minutes.

[@carbon1479]

After shoulder deep its Paris Hilton as lemmiwinks.

[@Triangulum303]

Yes! Next up, Lateralus album, and then Fear Inoculum :D You'll find the 10-minute songs that you're craving!

[@jackr1734]

Are we all just the same human? *Lateralus: i dunno...? *10,000 days: yes

[@foobee2]

"Message to Harry Manback" is a message that was left on the answering machine at a house where the Lead singer from Tool , Maynard, and a few other musicians lived...before Tool existed. There was an Italian guy who started some shit, got kicked out of the house, then called and left this message. Maynard recorded it then put some smooth, sad piano behind it. Cuz why not? Seems legit.

[@DJMAERZ]

I almost didnt recover 2:13 DEADDDD Im definitely going to use that audio, not quite sure yet but that was just fucking perfect.

[@TraditionalHippie]

5:39 there’s 30 sessions of therapy summed up (in a good way) “Chill out dude” Happy Thanksgiving to me

[@Frokebucker]

I knew you would get to this masterpiece eventually!

[@williamgeary8359]

I love that you call Stinkfist an intro I'm 100% convinced that this songs intent was to scare off the faint and weak-hearted If you don't love me at my worst - you don't deserve my best

[@RunawayOcelot]

Oh boy, you're in it now! Spiral Out my friend🌀

[@mikeharris1586]

More Tool!

[@themaddgamer2112]

Message to Harry man back is a voicemail left by a former roommate. Die er Von Satan is a Marijuana cookie recipe.

[@carbon1479]

30:45 - Maynard's like a cognitive systematizer-mystic.

[@ProBoltForever456]

To quote a certain protein junkie: "I've been waiting for this!"

[@jackr1734]

Now i know why my algorithm recommended me your channel

[@theawakener4360]

“Lateralus” is the greatest album of all time….but then again all of Tool’s albums are a masterpiece

[@DJMAERZ]

Im going on with positive thoughts. An entire TOOL album to start off with is too much for some to handle. Oh shit, this is like your FIRST FIRST TOOL, like ever?? 😮 Fuck it, Im buckled in, lets go!!

[@andrewmiller218]

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO🔥🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@m3tamonk3y4]

Ive heard this album hundreds of times and just sat through your 2 hour listening. You will learn the length of the songs is a gift >>>> You won't get sick of them like other songs >>>> and constantly find new parts of songs years after first hearing them. Enjoy. ❤

[@carbon1479]

If you want an album to listen to which is as much of a vibe as this one but shifted a bit - think of something like gnostic surf-edged grunge - look up Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction. Their 1990 album Ritual de lo Habitual also drops you off the deep end with Three Days and Then She Did.

[@willsONfireBeats]

I found their live/outtake album Kettle Whistle randomly in a CD case and it's now one of my all time favorite albums. Three days, Stop, and Up the beach all live versions, plus Slow divers one of my favorite songs of theirs

[@saga1ism]

In my opinion it's their best because....as you proved. When take the time and pay attention every song is dope. Pushit, changed my life at first listen. Then years later 3rd 👁️, the Jimmy when I realized how traumatized i was as a kid, so Aenima is the gift that keeps in giving. 🌀 Spiral out 🌀

[@jordanvandervelde1641]

In H - he is talking about his son - definitely changed his life. The struggle of a father not wanting to pass his demons onto his child. One of their best tracks. In Jimmy (his childhood name) - he lost his mom, but not really, she had an aneurism and lived for approx. 10,000 days after that (name of their fourth album) severely disabled. Source of a lot of themes throughout their catalogue. Struggle with God/existence/death etc. Pushit - had the same reaction as you at the beginning - didn't get into it at first. Now it is another top track for me...ages like fine wine. Spending some time with each song/album is required to get the most out of them ..very difficult to absorb on the first listen. Been on it since 96' and still come back to all their albums every year..multiple times.. Given you reactions to other awesome bands I've seen, figure Undertow may be more your vibe than Lateralus (often considered their best work) Love the final takeaway - its like watching a movie. Definitely - and there is depth so you'll keep coming back.

[@EthanSpiller-f2c]

Hail to the thief by radiohead next dawg 🙏

[@olli__]

the bass boost is crazy

[@erinhorkey9340]

Man, they've got you out here on Tool, lol. You're going on some wild rides, lol. Consuming a full album is the way to do it.

Oh nahhh this bouta be a banger. U should watch their live shows

Been waiting for this

[@dehydratedwater4759]

52:19 "funny as hell but at the same time feel serious" That's tool in a nutshell lmao. Great music though.

[@stephendavis75]

Tool deserves HOF. Amazing fans and longevity that everyone across metal awaits their music

[@LymLevolveon]

Amazing fans more like obsessive and annoying fans. I love TOOL myself but Tool fans suck.
