Tool - Third Eye cover

[@thepurpleherring]

No one can play like Adam Jones ? WRONG ! This dude sure can ! Amazing ! :)

[@derricklucas6705]

Not gonna lie it's not very hard to play like adam

[@douglaswetherbee7067]

Adam is a very unorthodox guitarist

[@Brankas]

The challenge is to make music like Adam Jones, aproach music and song writing like them. Playing Tool is not that hard

[@Miika_Laurila]

Tool's music cannot be accidentally copied. skills are definitely not enough for that. but he pulled this off really well!

Dude wtf Im so jealous rn, knowing that someone in 2009 learned this song by ear and was able to play it almost exactly the same way. This is the best tool cover, not even a debate. Dude knows his sh**!

[@TheEternalElir]

I also can't believe it. It's bloody amazing 🤘

5:18 (Using this as a reference to learn the solo)

those dissonant bends Adam uses are killer

[@Isaac-lm6pl]

wtf piece of shit

[@martinwrang]

I really loved those ambient/noisy parts! I've been trying to figure out the last part of the solo, where Adam just messes around, playing those chromatic fast notes, but when I try to play it, it's just noise. You nailed it though..!

[@ness1278]

Your same problem lives on 10 years later with me, trying to do it now too and its driving me insane

[@L33M_0]

I feel like this song is Rosetta Stoned part 1

[@B33fJerky123]

This is the most fucking retarded comment on KZbin

+Industrial Grade Ramen Thanks dude I appreciate it ☺️

[@ethanwoods5625]

Kalim Manigault No he’s right, this is the most retarded fucking comment ever

[@butthead6051]

I think he meant Rosetta Stoned sounds like part two of third eye.....buttholes

[@burkeysreviews]

Kalim Manigault ahaha nah I get what u mean it’s got the same depth of detail as Rosetta Stoned. Both songs have the recurring psychedelics theme...

[@gregchapdelaine4889]

This is still one of my favorite tool guitar covers. Really outstanding.

[@TheChimmyChunga]

All I can think is... HOLY FUCKING SHUIIITTTT

[@imadeyoureadthis.9743]

12:23 Careful, when you play that part you might accidentaly open a rift in both space and time.

bUt iT'S nOt hiGH dEfiNiTIOn j/k For someone who only got sucked into the Tool vortex because I was super lucky to see them live in 2020 (seriously, this year's been a long decade) I wanted to say thank you for leaving this up all this time. I had tuned out/never heard this song for about 8 months until a couple weeks ago when it was playing and I finally realized what it was. Compared to most of their other stuff, this one's pretty intimidating and watching you play it made it easy for me to get started. Stay safe and be well, brother....

[@jhkhlurt]

everything about this is perfect....except acdc

[@mindsetguitars5816]

Dude... 12 years ago... Still fuckin amazing! Everything about this cover/upload is so organic! God**** Shit The Bed! Perfectly done dude!

[@trips...2988]

I haven’t listened to this song for so long, and this is probably one of the best covers of Third Eye I have ever watched. Unbelievable.. ❤❤

[@opiateofthemasses]

@theishjort Thanks alot man. I use a Diezel Herbert through a Mesa Boogie 4x12, and a 1980 Gibson Les Paul custom. For pedals I use a boss flange and delay, a goodrich volume pedal, a dunlop bb-535 wah, an eq pedal, and a boss psm-5 master switch pedal. This was mic'd with a shure sm-57.

[@shreyaspai3791]

I keep coming back to this over a decade now. This guy is THE man when its Tool. I mean the tone is top notch, the nuances in his playing and everything makes him untouchable imo. Of course not all those who cover Tool songs want to sound exactly like the original and they could play in their own style too. But to be able to faithfully recreate not just the tone, but the accurate playing style as well is pretty insane. A lot of people have nailed down AJ's tone, but nobody does it as good when it comes to making the song FEEL like Tool and not just, 'sound' like Tool.

[@mikewagner7930]

Bro I have been coming back to this video for years brah,it's good and very entertaining. This song is an absolute blast to play

[@JohnDylan85]

Haha wow, wondering how he was gonna pull this one off! Like a pro as usual. I’d like to know what’s on that pedal board

[@AnaLilia813]

A Really awe inspiring cover! To me how hard a guitarist can play their guitar isn't important. Its the sound that matters to me. And this song is a work of art

[@robinhowson]

Amazing cover. I love the coach, please say that you still have it!

[@TJ-W]

Wow. Glad your videos are still here. Never delete them.

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

I've loved this song for 24 years

[@Tommymurraydrums]

TIGHT! Watching you play this makes me wish we had it in the set list more often.

[@cbatzo6786]

Killer

[@el_ballestero]

Excelent! Asombroso! Siempre había querido ver cómo tocaba esta canción Adam lml

[@dawsonnichols5345]

Damn I wish I could tool every tool song exact like you can...

[@mr_blue8208]

Well done!! Thanks for sharing! Sweet guitar!

[@pwnedshift1]

the first 3 mins of this track is probably the best thing Tool have ever done

[@olindavila640]

Brother I'm a toll fan since 94. You fucking ripped this! Crushed it! Well done and props!

[@karmapolice911]

Love that you did the live one, it's so much better.

[@Biend]

Just the other day I was going back home from work, listening to third eye and i wondered if that guy from youtube, who did sober and pushit so perfectly could possibly cover third eye and blow my mind. I got home, rolled a splif, found this video and went nuts! This guy is INSANE!

[@calebabarca6357]

You fucking rock, never tired of replaying it

[@oftenbanned]

Very nice and the tone is damn near spot on. GJ man!

[@krus180]

its been 10 years since you made this. damn how time passes

[@spencershields9186]

Man, I was just watching this to see what happens at the breakdown at 5:38, and boy, did you ever kill it. Fantastic cover!

[@masonmcfalda6754]

This is insane! I smiled the whole time watching

[@Cadbury102]

Amazing. Opiate, you're the best.

[@douglaswetherbee7067]

Out of all the covers of this song I seen you are the closest to Adam Jones version . At it sounds it sounds spot on 🙂👍🎸

Masterpiece

Dude. This was fucking awesome. No way I'm playing this anytime soon.

So good. You nailed it, man. The sound is incredible. Thanks for the amount of work you put into this monster of a song, and all the others, for that matter :)

[@SterlingSimmons22]

Awesome cover man! I like how you covered the salival version instead of the aenima version.

[@redcrow4461]

You rock a great guitar. Your style of playing is great and I been learning from you for years. Thanks! Great Job!

[@markkinnin7027]

Oh and speaking of slides, does having a brass slide affect the screachy feedback when going over the pickups? My slide is glass. Supposed to be easier to use for beginners?

[@douglaswetherbee7067]

Brass is better yes

[@sansarkosakowski8027]

This is fucking beautiful

[@TheMancadero]

nice, greetings from argentina TOOL!

[@jackhartsough3]

Prying open my thrid eye!!! Great job dude

[@azombiestool]

Got A PK-5 along with that Access Opiate! I had a similar sound to that of the grudge sounds earlier. I was practing from the parts in and around the WAH solo in the grudge. Had it fucking perfect :)

[@geoff101001]

not bad man I love the solo at the end of this song its just the shit makes me go nuts its my ring tone actualy on my phone lol.

[@VenNoel]

Beautiful les Paul!

[@opiateofthemasses]

yes

[@GuitarKylePlays]

@opiateofthemasses Tight. Sounds awesome.

[@sansarkosakowski8027]

Damn you even got the sunburst

[@Captain_Tool_Vicarious]

Dude, you rock Tool. I've been covering Tool for about 8 years, and still can't get the sound right. I know the tone comes alot from Adam's fingers themselves, but my fingers just arent thick enough. So, I tried one size bigger strings and it actually helped. I'm using 58-10 I believe. Ernie ball Super Slinks...of course. I need to get a Seymour Duncan in my bridge pickup, still using the Gibson ones in my studio Ultra 3, but my amp has alot of effects to add distortion and depth. Thanks for playing, and keep rocking!

[@JBrooksNYS]

He's using a light flanger more often than you might think.

[@Dimebag08RIP]

@opiateofthemasses Cool, thanks for the reply. Any further covers planned soon?

[@fon267]

are you using a volume pedal?

[@opiateofthemasses]

@GuitarKylePlays yep

[@coolguy2873]

1:37, That slide sounds like a car engine.

[@Lebowski333]

Thank you. Needs more views!

[@markkinnin7027]

Can anyone shed light on the lick at 5:25 - 5:30? I've looked at several tabs and its still unclear to me. I know its a combination of hammer-ons and pull-offs between 10, 12 and 13, but I'm fucked if I can get anything to sound right. PS, Im primarily a drummer/percussionist. Guitar is just a hobby I enjoy. Any advice from the pros on here? besides that part, and the crazy slide shenanigans, I think I have it almost learnt.

[@markkinnin7027]

And by having it learnt, I mean the basic outline of the song. I do nnot by any means think im on par with AJ or Mr Opiate here.

[@RudeDudeVooDoo]

mark kinnin I do not know them but I would think Tooltabs.net would be your best option.

[@lolwut162]

tremolo on the 10th fret and hammer on on the 12th and 13th frets. keep trying and you should get the rhythym. I think he mostly improvises it live so there probably isn't a "right" way to do it, try different timings and you'll eventually get it to sound the way you want it to.

[@gurkensalat1992]

@opiateofthemasses aren't that skinny top heavy bottoms ? :D love your cover :) would like to have just half your skill on guitar :/

[@derekpeters3470]

[@Sup3rShann0n]

This ficking song.... Wow. First time I ever heard it, this dude Nathan had just inherited a million dollars from his grandparents, he was my cousins girlfriends brother. We had this out of control bonfire party at the lake. Nate had a whole sheet of acid, and a quarter pound of weed. He was feeding acid to us like we were fishes eating pellets inside a fishbowl. There was a bottle of absynthe, and like 100 cases of shitty beer.

[@alivanhem]

this is awesome! you should repost the video with subtitles saying when you are switching which effects... i have a hard time figuring out when to use the delay (are you using a dd-6? what settings?) I play an 81 custom through a laney jcm800 clone - these guitars sound amazing!
