Tool The Pot Reaction Video!!!

[@crowbear516]

Few things bring me joy like watching people experience Tool songs for the first time.

[@VinAndSori]

Tool binge in process ...

[@crowbear516]

VinAnd Sori lol It never ends.

[@sangtran8300]

haha that is true. I always go back to binge Tool from time to time.

[@Plumbingbassplayer]

Yes.. I’ve found myself reliving my first tool experience again by watching others first exp reactions

[@jamesb1856]

Same, check out ktf king, you can watch a rap fan become a massive Tool fan

[@phukyu1491]

One of the greatest musical creations of any genre.

[@PositiveLastAction]

Phuk Yu Affirmative

[@brandonhinrichs8657]

I can already tell by her giddy reaction she's really gonna dig Tool. When Tool strikes a nerve with you they burrow in like a god damn tape worm

[@VinAndSori]

Hahha it DEFINITELY struck a nerve with me!!!! Looking forward to more great music!!! Did u join the cult yet?🤘🏻

[@VinAndSori]

Ya she’s a big thinker!

[@VinAndSori]

That’s pretty much what I’ve noticed as well, as far as how technical they are as musicians

[@brandonhinrichs8657]

I'm gonna make a suggestion for you guys. The song H. I think you will both be pretty happy with that

[@VinAndSori]

It’s on the list !

[@stephenmorelli6741]

Tool >>>>>>>>>>Korn . Not even close

[@VinAndSori]

Hahahahaha here we go! Music-wise though, these guys do make korn look like kindergarten... no debate there

[@jose12081981]

Quality over quantity

[@drlarrymitchell]

But...what if I want to git my boogie on? Then what?

[@Wobbls]

I'm a huge fan of both bands. You're 100% correct though. Musically and lyrically Korn is wearing diapers compared to Tool.

[@TmsPoncho]

I grew up to korn then matured with tool but they were both parts of my evolution. Korn is a good gateway

[@nathanmessina192]

This song is a double entendre about the hypocrisy of the US criminal justice system, particularly drug laws. The line about weeping shades of indigo is probably a) because he just liked the poetry of it and thought it sounded cool and b) indigo is a color associated with spirituality and shamanism. My theory is that he's basically poking fun at those who deem themselves the moral authority and invoke religion as a moral guide to suppress other people's pursuit of their own spirituality. I.e., "you shouldn't do drugs because the bible says it's bad". But I could be wrong. That's what's great about Tool; their song meaning are ambiguous and can be interpreted however the listener sees fit.

[@VinAndSori]

I think you’re probably VERY close cuz there’s politico/religious over/undertones throughout the song. Great call !

[@awesomeraven9178]

kurtrussell I agree. There are after all specific references to “refer”,”ganja” and the title of the song “the pot”.

[@SYNKSENTURY]

also cannasos.com/strains/indica/indigo

[@CyanideGirl94]

"The Pot" = Marijuana, and what hypocritically calls the kettle black (pissed all over my black kettle) I dont believe it is so much directly about weed, as it is using imagery to paint it as a perfect example of the overall message, which is, hypocrisy runs rampant, primarily in those who are in a position to condemn or point fingers, i.e. judges, lawyers. My belief is that they are basically saying it is very difficult to objectively be judged anymore because everyone is biased and more often than not, evidence or a lack thereof won't override someone's beliefs or bias, especially if they are guilty themselves. People being harshly punished for marijuana or the amount of racial prejudice in our justice system are simply examples of their whole point, which is not the pot, but is indeed the hypocrisy. Weeping cozened shades of indigo = tears, shades of blue is representative of sadness, weeping directly means crying Lemon juice up in your eye = false tears that were produced unnaturally, without emotion, in an attempt to feign sympathy or sadness

[@savitrisdisciple]

@@VinAndSori For me, cozened = compromised, and indigo was the the dye used to provide the colour that edged the togas of Roman senators, so, compromised politicians and their fake tears, summarizing their hypocrisy

[@brandonfrey4298]

Whether a TOOL fan or not, ya gotta appreciate Maynard's clever writing and analogies. He always makes very blunt, but very accurate points!

[@shaitanlavey]

I've always said that Tool is the Pink Floyd of the 90's. Their music is its own genre and the lyrics are always thought provoking.

[@VinAndSori]

Yes thought provoking for sure! -Sori🤘🏻

[@guylewis477]

I came to that conclusion myself as well. Cuddos

[@rastomasstanford7708]

Me too that what I always say.

[@uGotGot1618]

By catalog, they may be more of a 00's band 🤔

[@JW-fn3qv]

"Weeping shades of cozened indigo, got lemon juice up in your eye!" Can we all just take a sec and enjoy how incredibly well done MJK's lyrics are on every single song. He's amazing.

[@VICTORTOBE1]

You must have been high " someone sitting on their high perch and judging others. Tool songs have many meanings and Maynard is a Genius with multiple meaning lyrics. Indigo conveys integrity and deep sincerity....the color meaning reflects devotion, wisdom and justice. Maynard is saying those who judge others but have their own sins to contend with are fakes when it comes to all of these. Tool....all the other bands are just banging pots and pans!

[@shamelessgames9158]

40 plus year rock drummer here and i have to say i just love Tool, such a unique style and sound and these guys take it to a A Whole Nother Level ! Welcome to the world of Tool , Great reaction and best of luck .

[@BricktowneMedia]

Love the breakdown and your commentary. Awesome job Vin and Sori. I loves Sori's reaction at the very end...just jumping out of her chair with enthusiasm...I feel the same way Sori...even after over a decade. The analysis goes deep and the understanding just broadens and gets fleshed out. Much love to you guys!! Loving your content

[@MooseyFate100]

"Aenima" is pretty great if you like Tool songs with vitriol.

[@VinAndSori]

Ya I think that’s the third request for the song !

[@jyonko77]

Make that four.!...lol I'm 40 years old and have been a hardcore Tool fan since the beginning. There are so many songs from this band alone that are just awe-inspiring, I could sit here and list a ton of them. The reason they take so long between albums is because they base their music on real-life experiences; so they have to "live" for awhile to create more content. They just dont sit around and just make up lyrics about nothing/random stuff which makes them that much more amazing.

[@coperniki8286]

vivitrol?

[@Wobbls]

There's this thing called the internet. It's really easy to get on it and look up definitions of words. Oh, yeah I guess I could have been a little less of a dick typing this. Sorry.

[@Handzoffire]

Maynard is specifically referring to the Indigo's on the Margaret Lovatt emotional color wheel, two of them are Trust and Authority... also to Weep, is to Drip and cozened is past tense of cozen, cozen means to trick/deceive or obtain by deception, put all that together = Dripping of trust and authority obtained by deception. Lemon juice in the eye is a saying for when you're blind to the wrong you are doing or that's going on around you.

[@randysanchez3222]

Just came back to the begining of y'all riding the spiral lol

[@tracyallen7237]

46&2...get on it!!!

[@VinAndSori]

Aye aye captain!

[@danielsthr5206]

Make sure it is the video, that explains the meaning of 46&2.

[@VinAndSori]

That’s REALLY good to know! Keep it coming I’m doing a ton of tool homework !!

[@dprob1985]

Love this reaction. Huge tool fan here, and look forward to more tool!

[@VinAndSori]

If you join you can actually put a song in the weekly playlist for requests!

[@ScruffySqueegee]

Tool is the tits!!

[@BegToDiffah]

"Hypocrisy" is a big theme in the Tool catalog. But with this song, for me, it's all about the song-craft and especially Maynard's range.

[@candyman329]

Don’t think I’ve seen a Deftones request...how about adding “Passenger” on the list, Maynard Of Tool is featured on this track

[@VinAndSori]

On the list !!

[@candyman329]

Awesome sauce

[@sangtran8300]

👍

[@jmarra07]

Man, I love that song but at the same time it pisses me off every single time I listen to it. They build up so hard to the final chorus......and then the song just ends. Still love it though lol

[@morgangomez3477]

Yes please!!!!

[@TheTexan83]

"I'm not a very big tool fan..." -Vin 9 months later...

[@seelenwinter6662]

forget it... tool is much to hiiighhh for him... he allways tells only rubbish about tool songs... he should listen his rap or what ever... because he has no idea about good music.... on later tool reactions he only tells what people want to listen, but he never ever understand only 1 tool song and their type of music...

[@denisvasiliev694]

He was saying the same stuff for Pantera as well at first.

[@suleymanthetufekci]

This is one of my all time fav songs and it’s so thrilling to see people understand and appreciate it in both lyrical and musical perspectives 👏👏👏

[@vinnyb2049]

Hey vin, not to alarm you but your head was floating this entire video XD

[@christopherholub1625]

the cozened indigo part, cozened is a word that refers or translates to deceptive and indigo is something that is now man made and not something that comes from the earth or is organic. so it basically means the same thing as the lemon juice in the eye. they are tears that are self generated and have a irrational origin

[@dobrivojejeyostanica6511]

mabey indigo is like doplicate kopli or the same you no i dont no in nort macedonia if you seas the same words on eangliah sound fanny probably in eny colture but infigo is osloy a twin mabey

[@ohWolffy]

Awesome reaction. Great lyric breakdown. Would love to hear your reaction to the musical aspect... riffs, transitions, bass, drums, grooves

[@VinAndSori]

Yes the next tool song will be more all encompassing !!

[@MrSynyster2010]

I've watched y'all's recent videos. Good to know y'all learned to shut the hell up during the song.

[@mikezambo2862]

I feel like they should have textbooks and college courses in the future on tool

[@VinAndSori]

They probably will seriously

[@LMBraun]

"... never do your homework without your headphones on!"

[@sethbowman950]

So the thing about tool is that their songs are open to interpretation. Its literally up to you how you want to interpret the songs. One of the reasons for the band name is because they want listeners to use their music as a “tool”. Every time i listen to tool i always wanna research and dive deeper in

[@VinAndSori]

Is there a source for the name of the band. Still in the research phase with this group !

[@flickerman68]

"You hung the juror with the innocent"- You've screwed the whole process.

[@PositiveLastAction]

The Pot is one of the best songs ever written. Period.

[@Boaty]

As for the issue of caring about judgement, he's more concerned when that judgement is turned into jailing and hurting people

[@camjam180]

One of the best channels for breaking down and understanding lyrics! Along with being so active in the comments section, I think it’s going to get popular fast.

[@VinAndSori]

The comments are my favorite part... especially considering the fans of various bands will always have deeper understandings of the lyrics! Welcome aboard Brother !!! 🤘🏾-Vin

[@rippermadness2080]

Can't wait for you to get to lateralus by tool. 46&2, H., pushit, and the patient are great too.

[@VinAndSori]

Laterslus is up to like 6 requests in two days. We DEF have to do it this week! No choice!

[@candyman329]

VinAnd Sori woohoo there really is such thing as Santa Claus...can’t wait for lateralus 👍🏼

[@VinAndSori]

We’ve also got “Judith” to record in the next twenty minutes.... know it’s not “toll but we’re intrigued about how he relates to his mom and her faith

[@sangtran8300]

Lateralus! 👍

[@riezexeero7392]

Yes do Lateralus, there is a video out there with the lyrics and explanation. Prepared to be mind blow. Tool is a one of a kind band and I am happy to be alive and be able to listen to their masterpiece.

[@B.Zee...]

NEW TOOL ALBUM TODAY ...AFTER 13 YEARS!!! You gotta review it!!!

[@plexus]

This song is a quadruple entendre... Squared.

[@jeffmurray1681]

Yep, with a lot of artistic license thrown in. All of the lyrics can't be broken down into precise meaning. Its the nature of song lyrics. Sorta like poetry.

[@plexus]

jeff murray ... uhhh not really... this song is just about one of the most straight forward songs tool has. The meaning is obviously about the hypocrisy of the authorities dealing with the war on drugs... specifically dealing with the crazy scheduling and attitude toward marijuana over the past century. And the lyrics are pretty easily interpreted... hardly needing much “artistic license” to interpret this song’s meaning.

[@jeffmurray1681]

I don't think you know what I meant by "artistic license." Hint: The listener doesn't use artistic license to interpret a song. The writer uses artistic license in writing lyrics that convey a meaning, but also fit into the meter of the song. Therefore, lyrics are often not as straight forward as when writing a normal statement.

[@plexus]

jeff murray ... lol... I know exactly what artistic license is... I’m a professional artist. Lol... literally went to Art School and got a Bachelor’s degree in Media Arts and Animation... haha... I can see how you thought I meant it like the listener using THEIR artistic license in interpreting... but the way I meant it was the listener listening to it, interpreting it in a way that actively considers the writer of the lyrics’ taking liberal use of THEIR artistic license to draw meaning out of something thickly abstract... yeah, I worded it in a weird way I guess... I guess I should have written out something like... “hardly needing to invoke Maynard using very much “artistic license” to interpret this song’s meaning” But it still makes sense to me the way I wrote it, assuming that both the reader of the comment and I know what artistic license means... I mean... doesn’t most middle schooler know what artistic license means? Lol

[@jeffmurray1681]

Gotcha...

[@notablink182fanaccount2]

[@notimportant3686]

eulogy, aenema, sober, stinkfist, the pot, 46&2... these are tool MUSTS in whatever order.... good that you already got some of them but these are HOLY, know this

[@VinAndSori]

We already did the pot! Check it out!

[@CeerCol]

Great reaction. This was the song that introduced me to drums as more than a back beat in music. As to the Pissing on kettles... I've always felt Maynard was creating a non sequitur from two metaphors that shouldn't work together but somehow both lyrically and thematically does work. The expression "Don't be pissing down my back and telling me it's raining" is essentially a crude way to say don't take me for a fool. And the pot calling the kettle black needs no explanation. Together I think Maynard manages to say two things at once beautifully. Just what I took from it.

[@Ash_C-zz4nu]

That lyric breakdown is wholesome. Great fkn reaction guys.

[@VinAndSori]

Thank you !!!

[@igottabasketballjones7420]

10:54...it’s impossible to not move your head when that breakdown kicks in! Just found you two bc, well of course, Tool is my favorite band. Great job picking this song apart, learned things today about this song I never knew. Thanks 👍👍🤘🤘

[@VinAndSori]

Like what ?

[@igottabasketballjones7420]

VinAnd Sori kangaroo court, didn’t know what that meant so that line never made sense to me. Also “lemon juice in your eye” fake crying, a few other things as well really put this song into focus for me, thanks again, good breakdown of Maynard’s lyrics

[@VinAndSori]

Awesome!!

[@stephenmorelli6741]

Listen, Maynard follows a lot of carl jung philosophy, which emphasizes embracing your own faults and demons and the good and bad within yourself, so as not to project these traits onto others. So your point that hes being judgmental in his song about judgmental people shows you don't get maynards humor yet. lol keep at it tho!

[@VinAndSori]

Jung is Soooooo interesting! Got introduced to him via Jordan Peterson. You heard of him ?

[@StarsDie88]

Yoooo... Jordan Peterson. Good call. Peterson's "Pinnochio" speech is so powerful. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks of Peterson when I listen to Tool.

[@VinAndSori]

Boom!

[@turtleshell6391]

What about Ronald P Vincent. The imaginary scientists and theologist of spiritually ascending through crying.

[@xanatanuwu]

Jordan "Without god you wouldn't have art" Peterson, AKA the dumb man's intellectual.

[@thebipolarbiker9831]

I really think you two will enjoy TOOL Wings of Marie (Part 1) and 10,000 Days (Part 2). The singer Maynerd's mom Judith Marie was very religious and suffered an aneurysm when Maynerd was 11 which paralyed half his mothers body and when she past away about 10,000 days later do to cancer he dedicated these songs to her. Though Maynerd is not religious he is very spiritual. Knowing the history of his mother and the love he has for her it can bring one to tears.

[@VinAndSori]

Yes! We’re actually going to do a trilogy called “Maynard’s mom” which goes through “Judith” and then wings/10000. I can relate to losing a mother and the spiritual difficulties that come with it. Judith is already recorded can’t wait to hear the other two

[@tracyallen7237]

I will say, its weird that Vin is wearing a black shirt, and all I can see is his head...lol!!!

[@VinAndSori]

Hahahaha Hahahaha not a very well thought-out choice !

[@novastyle68whiskey]

You guys are awesome. I had no idea how much I would enjoy watching someone become a Tool fan, either. It's a beautiful thing. haha

[@VictorVDoom]

I’m unclear though on what band you want more of?

[@VictorVDoom]

Did I forget to mention the band? Damn, I must've been so HIGH

[@VinAndSori]

I see what you did there !!!🧐

[@Skippydinglecuq]

Love that bass

[@nohat1375]

you understood this song very fast. ive listen to this song for years and only a few weeks ago i read comment saying "the pot calling yhe kettle black". and you got it right away. if i had a hat i would be tipping it

[@VinAndSori]

But you have none. A simple head nod must suffice !

[@ethandupre5980]

Yusss!!! Always stoked seeing people get into this weirdass band. Listen, some of us toolfans can be dickish about what the songs' lyrics mean, which songs to hear first and how; try not to let anyone put you down for doing you! I think you guys are just awesome and you crack me up :) Every Tool song is like a unique masterpiece. Straight up. I'd recommend their song... uh .... "Stinkfist" :)

[@VinAndSori]

Thanks for the warning! We can handle em! And we are completely open to ppl telling us what the lyrics actually mean or what they see in them. It’s all about perspective!

[@VinAndSori]

Did u join the cult yet? If u did I’ll add stinkfist to the list!

[@VinAndSori]

Yes every group of fans have their own unique way of expressing how passionate they are. Tool favs are no different! StinkFist on the list !

[@jamesb1856]

Nice to see someone who understands Tool. They are complex, but that's what I love about them.

[@garyridgeway3770]

I can put tool over any band you pick instrumentally

[@VinAndSori]

Most likely!! They’re genious level

[@amd1273]

I guess you can put Megadeath up their instrumentally, they always bring it. Although I'd still pick tool.

[@eros727]

This has always been my favourite Tool song. So passionate, smart and raw .

[@stephenmorelli6741]

Also, try paying attention to the drums and instrumentals as well.

[@jonasdash]

You got it pretty dead spot on. "Weeping shades of cozened indigo" is talking about people who cry tears shaded blue with their sadness over a situation but it's all false and for show (cozened) and it's just like getting lemon juice in your eye and claiming you're crying about something. Tool's lyricism is just one of the facets that set them on an entirely different plane than other bands. Then add in phenomenal musicianship that builds layered and complex sounds using rhythms, layers, instruments, and unique time signatures that are at the top of the game in complexity. When you combine that all with lyrics that are not only eloquent but have dual meanings and they deal with everything from high-level mathematics, philosophy, religion, physics, social, political, economic, environmental, existential and the very concept of reality. If there was ever a band that is worth time exploring in depth, Tool is it.

[@bits6996]

Tool - lateralus. They used math( Fibonacci sequence) to create this song.

[@VinAndSori]

Yes! Vin is going to look into the sequence! -Sori✌🏻

[@DamnDealDone]

Watch the film Pi by Darren Aronofsky to appreciate the Fibonacci sequence.

[@SuicidebyYourMom]

No. "They" didn't. Maynard did. This was addressed during a podcast appearance with Lars Ulrich. During the writing and recording process by the other members Adam Jones and Justin Chancellor realized that the overall count of the music relative to the time signature fell in line with the Fibonacci Sequence. The only member of the band to intentionally write on the song following the sequence is Maynard. The rest was pure happenstance. So, no. Tool didn't write a song following the sequence with any intent. Maynard wrote lyrics as a result of the discovery that the song did as such. You can find this interview here on KZbin.

[@outis439-A]

[@VinAndSori]

You get us!

[@Karthrim]

Yo, this comment is a few months late, but regarding the line 'crying tears of cozened indigo' - you got it figured out, it's referring to fake tears. The reason why indigo specifically is mentioned is because it's a color that's not found in nature originally, it is artifical, therefore reinforcing the idea of crying fake tears. Found your channel today, I love what you guys do. Keep it up!

[@rx7dude2006]

A 5?I'm definitely judging now,lol.You should listen to Wings for Marie part 1 and 2, interested to see how you feel about his take on it all.

[@VinAndSori]

That’s about his mom right? Sori’s writing it as we speak. That’s another multi hit request !

[@justinmcmillan8509]

Yeah it’s about his mom, Judith Marie Keenan. If you do those 2 songs I think you need to listen to Judith by A Perfecf Circle first. Maynard is the lead singer in both bands and Judith sets up wings pt 1&2

[@VinAndSori]

Dude! Literally doing that as we speak! We’re doing a “Maynard’s mom” trilogy!

[@justinmcmillan8509]

That's awesome! I'm excited to see yall's reaction. Also, wings pt 1 and 2 are technically 2 different songs but are meant to be listened to as 1. There are lots of videos with them combined on youtube

[@davidrasberry7261]

VinAndSori I love how you guys brought Jesus Christ into the conversation. Jesus Christ can judge anyone because first and foremost He is God. People will say "How do you know that Jesus Christ is God?". I say to them look at the Scriptures and they will see that only God can do what Jesus Christ did. I love your honesty Vin because you don't let anyone's opinion affect you. You have thick skin. I admire that in a person. As usual you guys did an awesome job. Keep up the good work.

[@VinAndSori]

Thanks Dave! We feel the same brother!

[@LVXMagick]

Tool's music is like truth in that it exists in lanes that transcend thought or reason, yet evoke the highest forms of both. I absolutely love how deeply you both think. So many who do these reactions miss the real meanings. You two dig deep and get it. It's a beautiful thing to watch!

[@xanathrojas9487]

I've always thought that this song is about politics , at least for me , idk. Love your videos guys , I'll keep saying that you should react to Lateralus

[@VinAndSori]

That’s coming up this week!! Have you joined the cult yet? Ya he made a statement like “you’re just as guilty as the government or something like that”

[@MadProphet666]

@@VinAndSori im late to the party, but I have seen different references. One aspect of this song is how the government has kept drugs illegal such as pot because of all its benefits , yet its legal in a few areas and one happens to be Washington D.C. There are always many layers to their songs though and it is also about massive hypocrisy in general concerning our "system "

Cozened indigo... lemon juice refers to the make up running on the faces of the holier than thou Tammy Faye Baker types who hypocritically and, for the show of it, judge people from their HIGH horses. Just my take.

[@jamesgillam6478]

Great analysis and review! One key point I think you guys missed is he isn't unknowingly being a hypocrite by judging hypocrites, he clearly states that he himself is a hypocrite as are all humans, it's a little bit like Right in Two in the sense that mixed in are some themes of human nature. 'Liar, Lawyer, MIRROR' show me, what's the difference?' As in even when he looks at himself in the mirror he still sees a human who is not exempt from our hypocritical nature. Loved the video though!

great stuff guys. really got into the meaning. also loved how sori just couldn't ignore the overall epicness of the music. you guys are in for a treat the more you dig into tool. should definitely check out jambi. parabol/parabola is also a great one

[@VinAndSori]

Dude second request for parabola .... TODAY! And like the fifth for Jambi! Please tell me you joined up so we can put it on the list !

[@RevelationNone]

I really do enjoy your conversations and interpretations of the lyrics of the songs you listen to

[@mattheston9132]

So cute. So pure. You two are great

[@ki11ergreens59]

He said it right there brother, "Who are you to point your finger" you must of have been out your mind!

[@nicocas3583]

Same here. As in the quote in profile photo - "I don't care what you think of me. I don't think of you at all"

[@DD-sw1dd]

Wow. You guys did an excellent job dissecting the lyrics. I know many ppl who never understood the alternative meaning and only thought it was about marijuana laws in the 90’s.

17:43 ..... that moment when your brain is yelling "SHUT UP!!!!!" from the back and you listen before the shovel starts doing the heavy lifting. Nice recovery!

[@gustavibrowzinbehrd3871]

Tool can even make postmodernism attractive.

[@flintbosco8758]

U guys get it yall are awesome u even pointed out some things I didn't catch

[@bengarcia8202]

i always took the lemon juice passage as like a double entendre for false tears and then the drug reference cause lemon juice in your eyes makes them look bloodshot like someone who was stoned

[@danisyx5804]

Sori always understands the tool I love it

[@darkaquatus]

I LOVE the way how he says "Ganja, please, you must have been out your mind!" The southerner came out there xD

[@HenryDeMedina]

1:58 her smile when Maynard delivers "you must have been high" is priceless

[@RayzorSOS]

Your stance on reality is really refreshing.

[@oneDonly]

You're exactly right. That's what this song is about. Unless you think it's about something else, then that's what it's about.

[@gyse6920]

You are correct lady the only way to recognize evil is to experience and surpass your own. And yes this was written way after Facebook.

[@mikeb3835]

First time checking you guys out, and I was not disappointed, love the song and your analysis of it. Hectic, recommend you.

[@tracyallen7237]

You guys are awesome!!! Everyone in the world should have a relationship like you...and many do...but many dont...thus TOOL!!!

[@VinAndSori]

Aww! Thanks! We have a lot of fun together!

[@tracyallen7237]

Just a 46 yo from IA, letting you know, you guys are doing a great job...Keep it up and analyze the tunes that grab you cause there are people out there that love the unbiased reactions.

[@tracyallen7237]

Yea...you said that. Seems like a bot at this point...yay!!!

[@VinAndSori]

What?!? U thought we were a bot?

[@sangtran8300]

To be fair I think you need to revisit Tool music or at least give the band a few more tries to see what they are made of. I’ve listened to Tool for years and every time I go back to listen to them it’s like I’m discovering something new. Now I think I understand why people say Tool is their own genre.

[@Efferri]

I'm impressed how much you got in your first listen, maybe you are a Tool fan 😉

[@integrity101]

I agree Vin. I must have great Respect for someone for them to be capable of insulting/bothering me.

[@Mandibles76]

Tool like to challenge their listeners to think and don’t be afraid to look at things differently. Embrace the unknown!

[@VinAndSori]

Yes we’re pretty excited !!

[@tormodmoe1189]

When you do Rosetta Stoned, the intro for this is Lost Keys

[@OliverDigitalFilms]

Another Tool fan is born. Go Sori!
