it would be great if you did a bass only of tommy the cat plz you would the best youtuber if you did that. Reply and leave a like if you agree.

[@colinhess5742]

CoverSolutions I thought I had it until that triplet move at 5:00 and then the one at like 7:00 .... and then the end...

[@xoknight8166]

How on earth did you nail the triplets at the end lol

[@massimoiacovacci938]

justin canchellor's tone is so difficult to get don't worry,i'm trying to get it with a simulation of the krueger amp for the oldest song and with the sansamp for the others.Btw Great video you are the best.

[@CPOdin]

He uses a ton of effects and does some weird stuff with splitting his signal. His tone is real tough to replicate

[@deshmukhrishee]

You know Tool is something unique when guitarists watch the entire bass cover

[@ashtonnnr9002]

you described be perfectly lol. ive picked up a bass maybe 2 or 3 times

[@gerardesc7221]

I'm a guitar player and I just wanted to check if a riff was played on bass or guitar. But I couldn't help but to watch the whole video. Amazing technique.

[@dehasim]

The best of if is guitar and bass mixed, i love this music, i will never get tired of it

[@Liberteh]

So solo = bass confirmeru? ;)

[@giolosaberidze3613]

4:02 I thought that was guitar solo, what an amazing is tool.

[@rupe82]

Same! I never knew that was a bass solo.

[@lesterantoniobonilla1998]

The bass solo sounds like a guitar solo but it’s bass and sounds amazing tool did a great job on that bass solo

5:00 love it when the bassline kicks in early like that. One of my favourite parts of Rosetta Stoned as well towards the end.

[@connorgamer96]

This is Vicarious?

[@Cipher_Oblivion]

The back and forth riffs in The Pot also do that as well.

[@QbidMusicandMore]

So my 13 year old just came down stairs and said "Oh, I thought that you were playing Doom, with that song on." That sounds like a compliment to me.

[@anomnomnomnivore1350]

I mean doom is a video game that is well respected for its musical compositions.

[@mariinito8398]

Some of Doom 3's music was heavily inspired by Tool. You can check out the comparison here m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWTOlWN6pql2i7M

This may have been one of the best covers ever I listen to tool 24/7 and I have become very fond of 10000 days

[@boseifrit5480]

Same

[@dmt1236]

I've been listening to them since undertow and 10,000 days is my favorite for sure

[@alexandermazilu7087]

Same I bought 10,000 days not long after it came out at the same time with Opeths Ghost reveries which had also just came out and by comparison I thought 10k was boring, and too repetitive. I was not ready for it at that age, but over the years I've had revelations with this album. Always something more to teach. After you read the lyrics and experience the songs for a while, and then years later try to learn the songs on guitar or bass do you realize how innovative and creative a band like tool is. I am blown away by the complexity of the riffs in all these different time signatures, it all just went right over my head. I still love both bands and albums, still years later going back over and learning the songs from both bands, and learning new things by actually learning the music. Very rewarding. This song is amazing, as is rosseta stoned, right in two, etc. Incredible album.

[@kieranjmc1386]

Their time signatures may as well be 24/7

[@oranmacphersonraffell8966]

Me-Yeah, 0-3-5 is easy, only beginners think that it is hard. Justin Chancellor- 7:15

not as hard as it looks...

@@alahad yeah it LOOKS hard but it’s actually easy and fun to play

[@johantitulaer1052]

@@angus9165 My bass has yet to arrive this week, I'll see it for myself. I can play Vicarious on the guitar from beginning to end but I'm having trouble with those hammer-ons at the end on guitar. Maybe it's easier on bass? The strings are more separated so I can see why.

[@johantitulaer1052]

@Vicente_04 Song is going pretty well. But I'm focusing on the album Aenima more. You can see a cover on my channel.

[@likbezlik]

What the fuck is that hammering part at the end... my brain couldn't even process that shit.

[@Iwantamansonguitar]

Just your basic Tool-ish triplets. Same as on the guitar. :)

[@mudkiptm1951]

zeko bunny its so easy tho

[@Goadiroth]

excellent cover, dude! @6:37 you annihilated that low string :D

[@miffmaff2673]

It pleased me to see you wipe your brow, Tool songs are hard.

[@shayanmoosavi9139]

Also dream theater songs. *specially* dance of eternity. Their former drummer Mike Portnoy is a fucking legend.

[@shayanmoosavi9139]

There are a total of 108 time signature changes in dance of eternity. Holy shit.

[@mariinito8398]

@@shayanmoosavi9139 Dance of Eternity? Harder Guitar, Bass, Keyboard than any Tool song? Definitely a hard YES. Harder drums? I'll just straight up say it - NO. Just because a song has 108 time changes doesn't mean it's hard. You can feel the whole song. And it's not like Portnoy is leading the rhythm section. All he does is mimicking/following the guitar and keyboard on the drums which again makes it more easier. Something like the 3 over 4 polyrhythm from Eulogy or the 6/8 over 5/8 polymeter from Lateralus that Danny Carey does is harder cause Danny becomes (and is) the lead instrumentalist of the band and guitars and bass are following Danny instead Also I wouldn't quite put Portnoy in the "legendary" status. That dude is more showmanship than drumming. Like 90% of the fills he uses in every song is just some linear RLRLKK or some variation of that. It sounds cool to non drummers but to drummers like us, it really gets repetitive and boring

[@dclarkmusic]

One of the greatest songs ever written! And you crushed it as usual!

[@elZyngaWTF]

4:00 The bass does something else.

[@seanmeert2594]

[@hermesbandofficial8551]

Since the Lateralus video is blocked on my end, Ill comment it here. That video and to an extent this video inspired me to pick up bass and now I actually play bass, so thank you for sharing these covers with us! Keep up the good work!

[@allcartuner]

Definitely one of my favorite Tool songs. Great job on the cover!

[@mr.joshua8664]

3:10 the bass literally just sang right there

[@riffwars2753]

That ending though 👀

[@ADoomxz]

Its worth noting how much this bass line coincides with the actual lyrics and meaning behind the song. All parts of this band. Much better you than i.

[@kirkallen83]

You are a true master of the bass and an inspiration! Thank you so much for this video. The triples at the end of the song are insane and you executed it perfectly!

[@ColdSleep]

Goddamn I never knew the bass in Tool was SO hectic. Like I always thought it was cool and groovy but didn't know it was as busy and technical as this.

[@biggusdickus8511]

Technical as f*** ! Not like their last release Fear Inoculum which i found easier.

I'm not saying it's worst or bad or Justin is not as good...i'm sayin that bass lines in FI are easier.

Can you do tool parabola

[@addisonshinedown]

Mr. Cantaloupe parabol hardly worth a bass lesson. Beautiful song but very simple

actually Parabol is in DADG tuning and Parabola is in BEDG tuning, so it would be impossible to do a seamless cover without editing.

That was awesome. Reminds me that I've always thought Tool would be better as a trio: that guitarist with his white-noise just detracts from the bass melodies and could be dropped.

What should I do for the notes If my fretboard only goes up to 20?

[@StrazzieB47]

Captain Crusty play it on the G string instead of the D string.

[@reliktim]

If on D string freat 22, you should play on G string on 17 freat.

[@PinochleIsALie]

Buy another bass, but don't get rid of the other one. And get some pedals, too. And maybe another bass again. For that is our way.

[@yousifa7354]

Captain Crusty I recently bought a bass which goes up to the 24th fret for the same reason you have; i couldn't play some songs with my old bass.

[@AndriyVasylenko]

One of the most non-sense things ever created - a 20-fret bass. ONE semitone to full 3 octaves left. I've got 22-fret bass, but want to get 24-fret one (for example, to play harmony part of Orion solo)

[@Maxpen14]

Thank you so much for everything you do. You’re the only reason I’ve been able to learn these songs. Tabs with Tool are difficult, because it’s hard to feel out the rhythm by just reading them.

Citrus Blast Tool has the same sound on quite a few songs. Can't blame you. I recommend you listen to their ep Opiate on KZbin though, I think while it's similar it's probably the most different from this song through out most. Not sure, been about a year since I've listened to Tool.
