[@megadev9099]

The 'reverse entropy' effect is very real with Tool. I've been experiencing it for about 25 years now. Not only has the band and albums improved along the way, but my enjoyment of each song only improves with each listen.

[@Therap1ssed]

Those are always the best bands. Tool is sort of in a league of its own, but other bands that I initially felt blase about then fell in love with after were Mr. Bungle, The Melvins, and Ween.

[@sarajade5111]

They still never fail to amaze me. That's why they've been my favorite for over 20 years.

[@krowjin86]

I see you Vin. Singing word for word..... your a Tool fan brother.

[@avidspider]

So much content watching Sori's facial reaction as the riffs and fills come in, her ears and eyes taking it all in. Meanwhile Vin is jammin out like the album just dropped. You guys give good vibes man, keep it up!

[@VinAndSori]

Well... just dropped for us... lol a bit behind

[@kyleshick5467]

Maynard sits for hours listening to 30second loops perfecting each line, then moves to the next. It’s genius and serious discipline.

[@TheDeist100]

Glad you're doing this. PLEASE don't fear the "46+2" and "Aenima"!

I just got to say your reactions are some of the best on KZbin. You two analyze the lyrics, music and meaning so intelligently and it's just great to see.

[@BricktowneMedia]

As close to a perfect analysis as your ever likely to get. Excellent stuff guys. Loved the conversation and insights. So very much looking forward to the rest of the reviews. The Patient is up next!!

[@justjaredreacts]

Vin......"I'm not a tool fan".....15 seconds later he is singing the lyrics perfectly 🤣😂

[@jeremygagne1753]

Obviously he was joking

[@TheSuperSaiyan97]

Come on Vin, I thought you said you were into mythology! I can't believe you didn't pick up on this! Alright let me take you to school haha TLDR: Saturn = Chronus, father of Zeus Saturn is Chronus' name in the Roman pantheon From the moment the titan Chronus kills his father Uranus, he knows that his own children are destined to kill him as well. The grudge is the malice that Chronus holds for his fate as well as his children. In order to attempt to overcome his fate, Chronus ate all his children as soon as they were born, except Zeus, who was swapped for a STONE that Chronus then swallowed instead. Wear the grudge like a crown of negativity. Calculate what we will or will not tolerate. Desperate to control all and everything. Unable to forgive your scarlet letterman. Chronus, King of the Titans,deciding to take his fate into his own hands. The scarlet letterman are his own children, every time he sees them he is reminded of his fate. Clutch it like a cornerstone. Otherwise it all comes down. Justify denials and grip 'em to the lonesome end. Clutch it like a cornerstone. Otherwise it all comes down. Terrified of being wrong. Ultimatum prison cell. Chronus trying to hold onto his remaining time, denying his fate, hanging on to his place until his lonesome end in Tartarus (hell). Saturn ascends, choose one or ten. Hang on or be humbled again. Humbled again. One or ten = himself or his children, all or nothing Hang on to his crown or be humbled by watching his children succeed him. Clutch it like a cornerstone. Otherwise it all comes down. Justify denials and grip 'em to the lonesome end. Saturn ascends, comes round again. Saturn ascends, the one, the ten. Ignorant to the damage done. Chronus ascends by killing his father. He "comes round again" in the form of his son Zeus, who kills Chronus like Chronus did his father. Chronus is ignorant to the damage done when he chooses to devour his children because this act ends up sealing his fate by forcing Zeus to kill him to free his siblings from his stomach (Chronus death = damage done) Saturn comes back around to show you everything Let's you choose what you will, will not see and then Drags you down like a stone or lifts you up again Spits you out like a child, light and innocent. Long story, but Zeus ends up making Chronus vomit up his siblings i.e. Poseidon, Hades, etc, who are still alive in Chronus' stomach. Saturn comes back around. Lifts you up like a child Or drags you down like a stone to Consume you till you choose to let this go. Choose to let this go. Give away the stone. Let the oceans take and Transmutate this cold and fated anchor. Give away the stone. Let the waters kiss and Transmutate these leaden grudges into gold. Let go. Give away the stone = give up attempting to control fate and embrace it instead Oceans = chaos/nature/fate Chronus is commonly symbolized by lead, Zeus is commonly symbolized with gold. (I also believe that the alchemists were strongly influenced by mythology, but spoke in symbolic language to disguise their beliefs out of fear of prosecution for heresy by the Church) This is just my interpretation, but I think it's pretty compelling. The song (as well as the myth itself of course) is highly allegorical and speaks of the cycles both between generations as well as within ourselves and how to possibly overcome them, if that's even possible.

[@VinAndSori]

Whoa! Quote of the week! You sir... win a prize... seriously ! Love the knowledge !

[@gukbag]

This is a very interesting interpretation. Interpreting music is honestly one of the most amazing things because a song can mean something different to everyone who listens to it. Saturn (Roman god) is identified with Cronus (Greek god) but does not 100% equal Cronus. He still eats his kids, but where the Greeks feared him or saw him as a stepping stone in a story, the Romans revered him. In Roman mythology, Saturn is actually associated with both peace and plenty. The Romans adapted the Greek pantheon to suit their needs. Also, Chronus is the god of time, who later became associated with both Saturn and Cronus. I personally agree with Vin's interpretation. However, I also believe that Maynard is referencing Saturn in astrology because Saturn equals misery.

[@fjolkyngi218]

TheSuperSaiyan97 I like your mythological view but remember these guys were writing from a thelemic viewpoint. I'll explain

[@mineonlyhooves]

Bingo, this is the correct interpretation of this song and reference to Saturn

[@Rainmaker_ES]

Nailed it. The last part is insane and the rhythms seem taken out of a soundtrack of witches conjuring on a bonfire while dancing, so tribal. One of my 2 favourite Tool songs.

the excitement I see in you two when you guys are learning more and more about tool, reminds me of when I first became obsessed with Pink Floyd. I've listened to the wall over 1000 times now. I wrote 1000+ word essays in high school dissecting the lyrics of the album, I even learned to play the entire album (minus some harder solos), and played a 15m medley as my final exam in guitar class. I think this is why I love your channel so much, because I did the same level of lyrical analysis of the wall.

[@Ejmillanv]

Vin's too proud to admit he's a tool fan... but he is, totally 100% can't deny lol

[@jonward9997]

[@mineonlyhooves]

The “Holy Gift” album is nonsense spouted by Tool’s most obnoxious hardcore fans. Even Adam Jones and Danny Carey have stated in interviews the Holy Gift is crap, Lateralus was released in order the way the band wanted you to hear it.

[@DrDictionary8]

I always took "hang on or be humbled again" as the justification of a person holding a grudge, or the fear/cost that they are unwilling to make. To let go of a grudge often means to admit your own faults, and thus be humbled. A stubborn person holding a hates the idea of being humbled. "I MUST hang on to this grudge! I've spent so much time and energy on it! If I let go now, it will be humiliating, And yet, this is exactly what we need to do in these situations. Let go. Admit the fault, have humility, and move on.

[@dryferr5557]

Vin I'm so impressed that you seriously took the time and did the research on this song/ album. It took me 10 years of finding articles from this very introverted band and going to song meanings websites and putting things together forming an opinion ect . You did this in weeks. Props my brother.

[@donovonsmith930]

Vin, you are more intellectual than you let on or believe you are. Respect.

[@corpazilum5352]

I totally didn't think about it until watching this - but the whole thing of "leaden grudges" fits in with the Saturn imagery as well. You know the little astrological symbols for the different planets? The symbol for Saturn was used in alchemy to represent lead. And of course one of the goals of alchemy was to transmute lead into gold.

[@BricktowneMedia]

::signal boost:: This is a great observation!

[@riezexeero7392]

corp Azilum I agree. They used alchemy as a metaphor to convey the song. Here you can see the meaning if saturn. www.alchemylab.com/calcination.htm

[@bdlblob]

reflection is a masterpiece

[@BricktowneMedia]

Favorite Tool song ever written. Until we hear the new album perhaps...:0D

[@KILLtrOTTcity]

Imo you need to listen to Disposition along with Reflection,those songs are intertwined in many parts but alot of people don't notice at first.Tool does get better as you listen to their songs,just like this gentleman said and this is just one example.

[@syntheticsleep]

The "Holy Gift" is bs. People look too far into the things that aren't important and ignore the things that are. Also, Thelema is Alestair Crowley's school of thought, and Danny Cary is related to him, I think. Another fun fact is that TOOL is Adam Jones' band and Lateralus (the song and riff) came from Justin Chancellor, their bassist.

[@TheChucknoxus]

Exactly, the special order doesn't even sound any better.

[@Stoltzfus]

Sounds worse imo. The original is perfect.

[@TheBym4eva]

"Overthinking, overanalyzing separates the body from the mind." Holy gift slips up d/r/t. That's all the proof necessary to show that it wasn't intentional.

[@ConsideratelyKillingMe]

[@hollis68]

Definately changed my life and perspective as a person with bipolar disorder. Big fan of Tools from the early 90’s and when this album released I was 32 years old. Hard to imagine or convey the impactfullness and wisdom garnered from this album (more so than any other). I still listen to it religiously.

[@soccerwizard975]

A constant theme running through this album is how letting go leads you to some sort of enlightenment and freedom. Here specifically, let the grudge go and be in control of your own personal journey. You guys got that, but the reason the album as a whole is bigger than the sum of its parts is because of this central theme.

[@heididenson6643]

Love watching you two react to my favorite band! The energy is perfection! Welcome to the tool experience!

Vin's body learning some new time signatures ...good to see

[@YTDumpsterBaby]

33:30 Vin dropping some real wisdom about letting grudges go. We don't grow as people or achieve our goals holding grudges. Some people are ignorant but being able to dissociate from somebody's insults or accusations with the attitude that "I hear you but i don't recognise myself by the accusation or word you're using.!" It is very enlightened. The person using that word is the one with low character. They have to use it to try to empower themselves. Reminds me of Daryl Davis. A Musician who converted many of the top KKK members by simply getting to know them and not being offended by their ignorance. The KKK members who quit often give him their robes and hoods as a symbolic thanks. Because their lives are no longer consumed by prejudice. Their focus is no longer weak minded hate that never gave them any happiness or sense of accomplishment anyway.

[@krowjin86]

I feel like you both are unintentionally a truer form of Tool fan than most self-identified fans. Your understanding of their message comes from a real place. Love it

[@Themartinezjoeshow]

Tool is masterful and way ahead for there time and to me and band that will stand the test of time . Great reaction and cant wait for the rest of the album...and btw nonpoint the truth please bruah help me out

[@LexiPixeL_]

You guys should have the lyrics up for these. I have two monitors so I can follow along no problem, but it'd be nice to have all of it in the video itself. :) I'm excited for this series. Lowkey hope you guys tackle Aenima at some point. That's a great album too, lots of Jungian philosophy on there. Edit: Also it might be interesting to check out all the info on genius.com for each song. The site has interpretations and information, and generally official info from any given artist is given precedence with anything too outlandish or not confirmed is downvoted to oblivion. Each snippet of lyrics can also be clicked on for info on those specific segments. Edit 2: If this is _maybe_ your favorite on the album, VIn, you'd probably like Aenima. I'd say musically this is the closest sounding to something from that record.

[@Defensive_Wounds]

That Maynard scream and the drumming in the final part plus the groove in the middle are the best parts of any Tool song!!

[@jasmaxi1]

Lateralus (song) originally had the working title of 9-8-7 due to the time signatures of the chorus of the song changing from 9/8 to 8/8 to 7/8. 987 is also the 16th number of the Fibonacci sequence.

[@Lurch685]

I love how they let Maynard “let go” with that scream, then let Danny “let go” with that outro.

[@mediashroudsreality9845]

[@timhunter5280]

About the interludes, IMO you should just put them together with the songs that follow. When you hear the album often enough, they kinda start belonging together anyway, i.e. eon blue apocalypse + the patient, mantra + schism, parabol + parabola and disposition + reflection + triad are all package deals to me.

[@isaacgnzlz5761]

I've never saw that perspective of that ''turn the other cheek'' lesson and never thought I will learn it from a Tool review video, amazing and once again thank you for this conversation/review!

[@mode3517]

Also the choice of specifying lead to gold is a reference to the holy grail of Alchemy, the philosophers stone, which would turn lead into gold. This heavy stone of a grudge becomes a philosophers stone of sorts to yourself the moment you can let it go. Possessing this grudge is poisonous like lead but being able to let it go is golden. Golden for your personal growth and maturity.

10:17 I used to write music and I can see how Maynard thinks it's a gimmick. Finding smart little secrets to hide in your songs is one of the easiest things to do and actually, that was one of the first things I tried to do when I had just started writing music and was trying to think of myself as smart. The more you learn though, the more you realize it's really not what being a mature artist is all about, just trying to find meaningless secrets and trying to hide them in songs.

[@kratos9293]

hands down the best tool content on youtube

[@justinmccln]

Yall did a great job of doing research and understanding the song Lateralus. The last step of understanding to take is to see the message within the over-arching story of the lyrics of Lateralus. The spiral is what he says to represent the fibonacci sequence and the fibonacci sequence is a numerical representation of nature. So when he says to "swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human," he is saying to push ourselves to the edge of our nature so we "may just go where no one's been." You can see the underlying point expressed throughout all of the lyrics in the song, it is beautiful.

[@wadesmalling83]

From what I've noticed, Tool wants us to figure certain things out ourselves.

[@shanesturgill75]

Vin, you are SO a Tool fan! Haha. Welcome to the family, brother!

[@carlitosd.9699]

Vin and Sori, another great reaction! 🤟😎... Vin, if you’re working on an album you certainly understand the creative process, and the delicate balance between “message and method”, and I feel that’s what Maynard was referring to with the song “lateralus” as unintentionally ‘gimmicky’ or’ sophomoric ’ in hindsight ... so much has been made about the ‘method’ as the focal point, that I can see how Maynard could feel it’s overshadowed the song as a complete experience.

It's the Phi ratio that accrues in nature (sacred geometry) There are shapes that accure as well (Metetrons cube being one) . I believe Meteron is (gods scribe). I find with Tool that there is so much to take in musically that there are songs I gravitate to first and songs I don't. Then a year later the songs I first dismissed become my favorite songs on the albums. I saw that Joe rogan pod cast with Maynard, did he use the word gimmick? I think he said it happened by accident but I can't remember, it was a while ago. You mentioned the bible (I don't remember the word you used) retells the same stories through out the book. I saw a Jordan Peterson lecture where he mentions that and had a "chart" with lines connecting where the stories are retold. He compared it to a primitive version of hyperlinks.

I always thought the phrase "Hang on or be humbled again" was in reference to the grudge. Letting go of a grudge can be a humbling experience where, at the end, you have to acknowledge that you've made a mistake to still be angry. I figured that line was the logic behind being angry- that you can't calm down or you'll realize you shouldn't have been mad in the first place. In any case, another great song, and another great review!

[@chrispytelomeres9863]

Fucking awesome, thanx guys that was fun. That stuff about the possible religious references in the song, was interesting. Maynard grew up in a southern Baptist home. At least while he lived with his mother. As you know.

[@crossofcrimson]

This is really fantastic, guys. Like so many others are saying, I don't think you're going to find a better overall analysis anywhere. I think about the only STONE left unturned (haha...see what I did there) was the "transmutation" metaphor. All the points about turning something bad into "gold" are spot-on. But turning something "leaden" into gold was no accident. It's a reference to alchemy, an (at least now seen as) occult practice of trying to transmute one substance into another. The effort of trying to turn lead into gold, in particular, was very common; I guess because they have similar mass(?) Anyways, just another occult reference to add to the pot. I hope that at some point maybe you decide to do a similar run-through for Ænima. I think the transition between that record and Lateralus is one of the biggest ones for the band - and so it's no surprise those two albums are often the fan favorites. The previous albums were often darker, as well as more aggressive and cynical. So the ascent from Ænima to Lateralus was a decidedly upward shift in aesthetic and tone. And, as you point to the reference of Saturn returning in this song, it's no coincidence that the band members were in their early thirties when they made this shift; when they wrote Lateralus. I'd also like add, for whatever it's worth, that Lateralus had a huge impact on me in my early life as well. And I think it kind of raised the bar not only for a lot of hard rock and metal bands, but their fans as well. Something I think that too many people overlook is the weird timing of this album. By that I mean, its release. This album, to the best of my memory, came out in the summer of 2001. Their tour for the release started in earnest that fall....just weeks before 9/11. In fact, I went to the show they did in Columbus just a couple of days after 9/11. I remember before they played "Schism", Maynard talked to the crowd a little bit. The crowd started to erupt in chants of "USA! USA! USA!", and I remember him very quickly chastising them, and explaining that, in this moment, we could all either choose fear...or love and communication. I won't go into the boring historical details of what the USA collectively chose. But I remembered thinking what an odd coincidence that this song they started playing, "Schism", is about a rift between two people ("brothers"/"lovers"), and opening up communication to facilitate healing. In fact, a good deal of the album is about settling petty differences, healing, and appreciating life. What are the chances that that particular song is what they released as their first radio single months before 9/11? Songs like that, and songs like "The Grudge" began to take on a much larger (double) meaning to me right after that day. And I'm sure it did for many others as well.

In minute 45 you were talking about the discovery of your parents' wisdom. You were expressing how it was difficult to convey your newly found appreciation for the advice of your parents when you were young, that you had to have your own children to realize they knew what they were talking about.I had that epiphany myself as a result of my own children. I just apologized to my parents for all the flak I gave them and told them that I now know, that they always knew the right move, and told them that it took me 20 years to learn the lesson. I felt much better after that confession!
