Skullz reacts to Eulogy by Tool
Tool is an American rock band from Los Angeles. Formed in 1990... due to Tool's incorporation of visual arts and very long and complex releases, the band is generally described as a style-transcending act and part of progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and art rock. The relationship between the band and today's music industry is ambivalent, at times marked by censorship, and the band's insistence on privacy....Tool has won four Grammy Awards, performed worldwide tours, and produced albums topping the charts in several countries.

16:25 is the nastiest drum beat. I took drum lessons back in the day and my teacher was mainly into jazz and classical music and I was flipping through his vinyl while waiting for him to set up and of the 100+ albums which were all jazz, classical and some classic rock this Tool album was in there and he was totally obsessed with it. The main reason he got the album was to learn that beat at 16:25 but soon learned the whole album is a masterpiece!

@blazinbuc99 3 месяца назад

Bill Hicks was a legendary stand up famous for ranting on stage. He and Maynard were friends briefly. Hicks Died in 1994 (aenema came out in 1996) at the age of 32. Hick's stand up is sampled on Third Eye and there's a strange/funny painting of Hicks in the album artwork.

@MrToolhead82 2 года назад

Lots of mystery around the whispered lyrics in this song, and truth is we will all never know or agree. When you started reading them I was like wtf, cuz they were so different than how I first learned them 20 years ago. My lyrical take (worth nothing btw): “You could be the one to save me from my own existence.” “I was so sure I’d sin and you’d pay too. I’m just glad that you knew me enough to always sit by you. So mad since you stopped giving all your commands. You weren’t too mad when he called you. Your mind is helpless.” I’m positive I’m way off, but that’s what 20+ years of singing a song one way does. Lol. Great video man. Ride that spiral to the end.

This song bangs! I've heard conflicting opinions regarding who this song is directed to. Maynard was a fan of Bill Hicks. A lot of speculation that it's directed at L. Ron Hubbard. Hard to know for sure. The addition of Justin Chancellor on bass took the band in another direction. His riffs are phenomenal.

I have very much enjoyed taking this ride with you and I very much admire your insight and perspective. Based on my personal interpretation of the work I feel that you are mostly on target with your analysis. One thing I've heard heard several times recently from several reactioners and not just you is that Maynard 'does not like religion' or is 'against Christianity'. While that may or may not be I feel that statements like that are irrelevant if not actually inaccurate. It detracts from the point that is being made from perhaps a higher level. I would argue that Maynard is against ignorance and stupidity. To that end he and the band have dedicated their professional lives to inspiring their listeners and our species as a collective whole to engage in a level of critical thought that would allow us to transcend those barriers we have created for ourselves. He once introduced the song opiate by saying "Ever here of some guys named Mohammed or Krishna or Jesus Christ? They all had some great ideas that got all fucked up by their 'agents'. Never trust an agent. This is a song about those agents." I hope that helps and I appreciate you and your time.

@Skullzrapper 2 года назад

I agree completely! When people say this song is about Jesus or Hubbard, it just feels like a superficial analysis. There is a deeper metaphysical analysis and that's why people relate so deeply to these songs 💯 Appreciate your comment!

what i love most about maynard is that most of the time there is an ambiguity inserted into the lyrics (not always of course) that leaves it up to the listener to interpret the meanings by interjecting ones own experiences into it. turns out this song is about me. the old ass hole me that has since passed away because i murdered him, my old self was willing to die for my future self. its amazing how well Maynard understands me :D

@sydneymarie67 2 года назад

Is definitely a more complex album and they played a lot with his voice and he changed his voice more so to be softer or more clear then in the last album... There's a lot of talking or spoken word it seemed like her spoken singing. But they definitely went a different way on their style. It's the same but then again it's different. And on a different note what kind of education have you received? I feel you have gotten some sociological training on the way you break things down in your thoughts set. just curious.. I do enjoy your breakdown and thoughts on the lyrics as always. I find it very interesting on your breakdown for sure Keep up the good work bro can't wait for you to hear the rest of the album. You won't be disappointed I can guarantee that. Cheers my friend

@Skullzrapper 2 года назад

I have some college under my belt, mostly in writing. Also went to a broadcasting school. Otherwise, I just research and listen to lots of people and different perspectives. I think being a lyricist helps breaking down narratives as well. And with my own album, I did similar things to tell individual stories in each song but also tell a bigger story if you listen to them all together in order! As always appreciate the support my friend! 🤘

@MasterFlarg89 Год назад

I've always said that this song was closer to the opener than Stinkfist. Which makes sense. Stinkfist is your warning that too much of any sensation is bad for you and addictive. It's a warning, I've always felt, when consuming the rest of the album. To not get lost in the moments. Then Eulogy begins the rest of the album.

When I have the song thoroughly in my head, I'll start looking at lyrics while listening. For me, focusing on lyrics from the start, takes away from the song because both lyrics and instruments are so intricate. Just my personal approach to Tool and other progressive bands.

Its discordant, screechy, and shrill in the way you would expect one of these kinds of people to be when up on their soapbox.

This is another Tool song that touches on the subject of the dissipation of the ego. Prior to Eulogy, Maynard used before the same concept on Part of Me and Bottom, and he will use it again in the next record. Crucifying the ego is a common theme throughout Tool's discography because the lyrics are outlining Maynard's own evolution.

@Skullzrapper 2 года назад

I 100% agree with that! Maybe he uses things like Hubbard as a manifestation of these deeper points as part of his art but these songs feel way too deep for it not to be about Maynard at the end of the day! 🤘

@@Skullzrapper I think some of them are about him, and I think he definitely draws on his experiences for others, but I think some songs are just ideas that he explores using other people/events/writings as a foundation.

I think Undertow and Aenima are more personal, but I think in later albums he's let some of that go and explored bigger ideas.

@zm5668 2 года назад

Some have said it's partly a eulogy to bill hicks who the album is dedicated too. The, uncaring, lyrics, seem to suggest annoyance or frustration they have died rather than genuine dislike. It's also coated with a layer of irony if you consider it a eulogy to jesus christ But also seems to have that layer of saying goodbye to the bad parts of his/our psyche. Many different meanings you can take from it what you feel imo

Jungian philosophy is deep and long, but of you are unfamiliar with it, a read of the Wikipedia article will give you an ides of the concepts and will help explain some of the more esoteric lyrics.

We had already heard Stinkfist as it was a single that had been played fairly frequently on the radio. However, when it skipped to Eulogy, THAT’S the moment that TOOL changed my life FOREVER!!! I mean, I was in a band at that time, and that’s the moment that we realized that we were shit!!! 😂 This song is so complex in its simplicity that it blew me away on my 1st listen of it. AND, ( again - *I* believe ) it’s the 1st time that I heard TOOL go on a more “experimental” direction, and I absolutely LOVED where they were gonna take me too!!!! Also, I think that the sooner that you know that the entire album is all about Bill Hicks, the better off you’d be. 😉

Tool has been my favorite band from the first time I heard Opiate. Deciphering their songs can be difficult and can have a different meaning from person to person. However, I've always thought that Eulogy was about stand-up comedian Bill Hicks as he and Maynard were friends.

Yeah. Paul was cool on bass. But justin. He just is on another creative level!!

@douglasanderson8543 2 года назад

This is the first album with Justin Chancellor after having Paul D'Amour on Opiate/Undertow. They brought in David Bottrill to produce this album (Also did Lateralus) because they were such a fan of his work with King Crimson who were a big influence to them. There is a Tool Doc called "The Ultimate Review" (it's here on youtube) which tells a lot of their early years, and a lot of the backstory for this album.

That sounds interesting! Thanks for the info bro! 💯🤘

Thanks for clarifying how you missed the glory of Justin's Bass in Stinkfist. Time for another set of headphones? Or better yet, how about PRYING OPEN YOUR THIRD EAR???

I've watched many Maynard Interviews and he doesn't give two shits about fame.

This song is about Cults. Two in particular Christianity and Scientology " come down climb off your cross we need the space to nail up the next fool martyr".

Rewatching this Skullz what happened to you would like to see more reactions 👍

@MrTwisted003 10 месяцев назад

I took acid once, only once a few times... Listened to Tool, I should say I watched Tool videos, and Primus videos... definitely an experience. High listening gives a very different feel to the music. Tool is one of a few bands on my Trip Music list.

“To ascend you must die … you must be crucified … for our sins and our lies … goodbye” Still think it’s L Ron Hubbard he’s eulogizing?

He was mocking all martyrs. Especially Jesus (get off your Fing cross, we need a little space to nail the next fool martyr) All martyrs stand above the crowd.
