TOOL - Pneuma - Drum Cam Live REACTION! 

This was our first time hearing live TOOL! We overall thought it was great! Thanks to everyone who suggested it! We hope everyone is doing well! What’s the next one by them we need to hear? Let us know in the comments! 💛👍🔥🤟

8:30 at this point in the song he’s playing four entirely different beats at the same time on all limbs and it still sounds so natural it’s just insane

the disrespect at 5 minute mark.

The Dad is still holding on to his youth and no matter what band it is he will never concede to the fact that there are better drummers then the ones in the bands he holds so close to his heart. Understandable but narrow minded.

It seams like dad is trying to find something wrong with the band every reaction. Lol smh

Yea, this guy is the best there is. He can keep four different beats going at the same time. The goat

The lyrics are exactly what the meaning of the word Pneuma is. We all have it some of one foot nailed down than others. Beautiful song to live by.

A huge thumbs up for Tool. A unique sound that never grows old!

Neil and Danny were friends and jammed together on their off time. Danny tributes Neil as one of his inspirations. Thanks for the reaction.

The kid is absolutely right about the cameras picking up the sound of the drums. I mean, it is a drum cam video so obviously it's going to pick up more of him than the other instruments/vocals.

Dad needs to learn.

Tool Sober 1994 live it’s been remastered you will get a chance to see the whole band and an epic preformace.🤘

Tool Army here, you have a very smart young man there, you should be proud.

Tool Army here.. nice work guys.. spiral Out..

When this album came out, pneuma was just "good" to me but then I heard it in live in concert and I thought my chest was going to explode. Now it's one of my favorites, not only from FI, but from all of Tool.

This video was taken shortly before Danny's 59th birthday. He has four limb independence and a uses a lot of different time signatures at the same time. That's basically the equivalent of making a circle with one hand and a square with the other along with making a triangle with one foot and a hexagon with the other. The rub your head and pat your head x2. About his set up. He has 7 Mandala pads 4 to the left of the highhat and 3 to the right. Each has 128 strike points arranged in 7 concentric circles which he can program to sound like whatever he wants. He uses the 2 Synthesizers over his left shoulder for this. Above his snare and on each side of the highhat are 2 rack Tom's, an 8" and a 14". The drum that sounds like a table, is a Korg Wd 1 wave drum also programble with the 2 sythns mentioned. His snare drum is a cast bronze KV 14"×8" and weighs 44lbs. There are 2floor toms 14" and 16". He uses 2 kick drums 22" and 24". Behind him is a 40" Paste symphonic gong. Above that, looks like a huge arced keyboard is called a Marimba Lumina that is programable through a MIDI controller. Each key defines the strike zones and its played with special mallets. Most of his brass are Paiste cymbals. Lot of different equipment for adding textures and expanding his drumming vocabulary. Probably more information than you care to know🤣🤣. Hes easily the best drummer alive today and would easily in my opinion be in the top 10 all time. Keep up the reactions. Glad as always to spee you well.✌🤘🤘

This kid gets it.

Danny is the best drummer alive today.You guys need to look into all his other projects to understand how diverse his drumming is especially his Jazz Fusion style.

You finally got to it! Thanks for reacting.... And remember this guy is 59 years old..... Him and Neil were great friends too

The main phrase of the irregular sections is basically 33, 8th notes. I've seen drummers, guitarists, and composers discuss dividing that up differently to taste (ie. [6, 6, 2, 6, 6, 7], or [5, 3, 3, 3, 5, 3, 3, 3, 5], or [3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 3, 2]). That's just the primary irregular phrase. There are also several variations on that kind of theme that pop up all over the place. The fact that the drummer can pull it off live is god-tier, and the fact that the band can hang with him (as a guitarist) I find even more insane. You might say 4/4 means it got better, but I would say 4/4 has its place, and so does 33/8.

You guys need to watch the 2013 Non-Existent DVD of Jambi live! You will see the whole band playing their instruments and get a great feel for what it's like to experience them in person!

Danny Carey is almost 60 and has the mind of a drum master, its was filmed for Vic Firth and he uses sticks made for him by Vic Firth. Maynard is infamously reclusive and rarely out in front. Tool takes you on a journey with the lyrics and the layering of the instruments. Tools is pretty much at the top of the list when it comes to rock bands.

Love how Danny just proved you guys wrong haha

Son knows more than dad.

Theres not a lot of high quality live video of tool AFAIK. The next most popular live performance is their 1993 performance of Sober. I know you guys said you didnt really care for that song but im willing to bet that this peformance will shift your perspective of the song and the band as a whole. If you decide to watch it, just know that Maynard is quite the performance artist and is not under the influence haha

Not loud enough boys. You need to turn it up for a reaction.

Danny carey is one of the greatest drummers of 90s and now 🤘 He is like a mixture of neil peart and john bonham styles 🤘🤘 Audio quality of the live video is a little bit low I dont know if its my imagination or real 😅😅

Impressive his technique if you think about what he's playing in the previous part if you don't see it for yourselves. He doesn't look at his left side, he knows his rig

He’s 58 years old by the way.

Great commentation there young man.

Now listen to the song another hundred times, and you'll get the feel for it. There are subtleties that you don't hear on the first few listens. It's now one of my favourite songs!

No one wants to compare Neil and Danny because there is a pretty good overlap in their fanbase, but Danny is up there with the best rock drummers in the world without a doubt. The bassist is definitely underrated in this band. Another interesting thing about this band, in recent years the singer (Maynard) tends to sing in the dark back near Danny, while the other band members have spotlights on them.

Sorry to say but the son knows more about what’s going on than the father. It’s a Drum Cam with mics to enhance the sound of the drums compared.to the vocals and other instruments

Lol your son was right, it’s a drum cam. It’s for VIC firth the drum stick company. Danny’s just doing his part to rep for the company he’s sponsored by. Hence Danny Carey drum cam . Showcasing his skills and him using the sticks.

That's funny that you'd say it sounds like Neil Peart because Danny Carey says that Neil was an inspiration for him.

Studio version is much cleaner and balanced

The Mount Rushmore of drummers Neil Peart, John Bonham, Keith Moon, snd the GOAT Danny Carey.

Songs of the new album are something you need to listen more than once to let them grow on you. Well .. Pneuma's riff was "love in the first hear" to me, but other songs required few tries before they opened up (to me).

You guys need to invest in better sound gear or headphones so you can hear the full depth of the music.

I feel like Dad is not patient enough ? I think that most prog or complex music take more than one listen to truly appreciate. I'm not even a big fan of Tool, but the drumming on most of their songs is pretty damn incredible. Give music time to grow on you. Search why people enjoy certain styles that you might reject at first and open your mind to new forms of music :) !

If you want to see a full live performance from them do Sober (live) pro shot 1993. Its one of my favorite performances of all time.

The point of this video is the tempo and diferent time signatures that he does in this song and the polyritmes that he can play. Showing that is not pre programed drums.

If y’all didn’t understand the difficulty of the beginning of that song then you need to sit behind your kit and try it

Whoa, didn't expect this as the next Tool reaction! Yeah, Danny Carey is a beast on the drums (he's probably part octopus, like a select few other well-known drummers. Haha.). He's incredibly technical (as well as the other Tool members), and when you're dealing with polyrhythms (ie. multiple rhythm's employed simultaneously in a song) like Tool does, it's incredible how Danny Carey does his thing. From those who know Rush more than I do, I've heard that Danny is the closest to Neil in drumming style and talent. And the drum cam here is definitely meant to keep the sound focused on the drumming than the other instruments and vocals. I almost wish you did the studio version first, before the drum cam, but it's cool. The tracks on the new album require a good amount of patience. 7/8 tracks (not counting the two short little weird tracks in between some songs) are each over 10 minutes long, and each sort of have it's own build-up. Pneuma is probably my favorite on the album, next to Fear Inoculum and Descending. I'd say each song is a grower, as the album itself is probably their most mild project yet, and has been a little divisive among Tool fans. That said, what can't be argued about the new album, is that the instrumentation is still top-notch. I'll have to scour some live Tool performances. lol My next Tool request was Schism, so maybe I'll see if there's a live version of that anywhere. The bass play in that song is *chef's kiss*.

danny carey is the best drummer in the world, he surpassed neil peart in the 90s... i was a rush fan in the 80s “and queensryche”.. but tool has now been my fav band for 27 years

It's getting better because you can count to 4. But odd measure times just go over your heads.

Omg🤣🤣

Live, Sober...that said...Dad, stop whining...lmao

He's no Keith Moon???? What! This guy has the grove of John Bonham, the power/intensity/creativeness of Bill Ward, and the technical precision of Neil Peart. Neil is my fav, but Danny Carrey imo is best drummer alive today.

It's 100% ment to be like that. It's a drum cam as you said so the emphasis will be on the drummer. I would have done a few more tunes before watching this or even the actual song. With Tool you have to be careful not to go to far with the music as you can easily get lost in what they are. I'd suggest if you do tool again to have the lyrics also.

drum cams are meant to let the drums shine. that why the drums are so loud in this. if it was an official live recording of the song as a whole the mix would be more even

Live version of this song.

EPIC!! Last week Rime of the Ancient Mariner, now Pneuma; your kind of my fav channel of 2020. Love the honestly of Father when something dont like him. Keep going guys! PD: The signatures of this song is fucking amazing, for me, prog metal as it best. Cheers

You must react to...Edgar Winter Group--Frankenstein 1973. It's live in the studio and Approx. nine minutes long. Spiderslegs99 posted it.

if you like crazy drum, watch Eloy Casagrande drum cam live Desperate cry (sepultura)

If I may make a request. Helloween- Eagle Fly Free. United Alive tour. There is a HD video. German godfathers of power metal. Great vocals and musicianship. If you like Maiden, you will like this. But they are very different.

smart kid

Since you wanna see the whole band, check out "Invincible" Live, May 2019 by Tool.

Missing the Nightwish Reactions here. I suggest 7 days to the wolfs wembley...cant remember if you did that.

If you're not able to bob your head to the exact beat for more than 6 seconds while the song remains effectively on point, then the drummer has defeated you. Congrats on getting schooled by the 2nd greatest progressive rock band ever in history.

So this is a completely different mix than what they hear and what the crowd hears, this mix that was meant for video and audio, they absolutely turned up the mics on the drums for this particular mix. Definitely not the live mix. PINK FLOYD + LED ZEPPELIN + RUSH = 🔥👽TOOL👽🔥

Don't get your hopes up see the whole band play, Maynard(the singer) has stage fright and often sings in the shadows or behind a screen.

If you want live Tool check Tool - Sober Live (Pro Shot) REMASTERED. Even if you have heard the song.

Greatest payoff of all time

Although, you guys have a good relationship. And your son seems pretty damn switched on. Nice one..thanks. Subscribed...

You wanna see the whole band? Here ya go. I recorded Stinkfist from row 4 at this show. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JCtEA9e_wp0.html

Within temptation - faster. You kinda like nightvwish so within temptation is amustvsee for you 2 people. Just do it. Give it a chanche and get amazed.

Not my favourite band, just don't listen to them usually. Now I had to listen to them because I like to watch your reactions. Tool did not win me over, but hey, nothing wrong with that. You can't like everything. I'm sure and hope there will be many great songs coming up that I will like in the upcoming videos from you guys. And I'm waiting for the next live reaction show, hopefully not too far away.

Turn it off after 45 sec Turn the volume up next time

from the ... adam jonesy, somewhat: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kdO7PTQ7cRU.html

I like you guys and your channel so I gave the video a thumbs up even though I don't really care for Tool. As I've stated before, I can appreciate their talent and uniqueness, but they just don't do anything for me. Here's another suggestion though: Molly Hatchet - Flirtin' With Disaster (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_K_-D5B7DIg.html). Cheers!

Some Talking heads : listening Wind ? Never stop the Musik 🔊🎶

I must admit,as a few others have said,Tool don't really do it for me and I don't know why. They are all great musicians but there is something I just can't put my finger on but having said that it was another great honest reaction. Not many channels have the courage and honesty to do complex and challenging long tracks. Keep up the good work guys.

Awesome ! Back in the day this drum solo by IRON BUTTERFLY ( IN A GADDA DA VIDA ). Was really good ! Great music ! The best drum solo ever is THE SURFARIS (WIPE OUT ) A MUST REACTION VIDEO ! You must check it out ! Out of this world ! PEACE !! ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

Great drumming but I just can't get into Tool. I have tried honestly. Still a great reaction.

that. was the most thoughtless listen through. I'm following you guys and really?Q You discounted it for abverent reasons. Why would you have decided that discounting the Danny GOAT for not showing the other members is fine? You need to be smarter if you are going to review smart bands.

Cool! Not really interest in their music. Propably should give them a chance and try more their songs. Definitely a creative drummer. Btw the audio of the songs/performances is still low to me. I mean the ratio is great (I can easily understand what you are saying during the song), however I would put the overall volume up. Thanks for reaction!

Kind of figured you guys would react the way you did. The songs off Tool's newest album are all pretty much like this outside "Invincible", and many are even slower. You have to really be into the music and just listen to it and let it carry you somewhere, instead of expecting there to be alot of loud instruments and singing. It's not going to happen for the most part. To be honest, this was an awful way to hear this song for the first time. Like you guys mentioned, you can't hear alot of stuff going on outside the drums. This video was just set up to show off Danny's drumming, it wasn't for experiencing the song itself. Most people will recommend a Sober live video, but given you guys were horribly off that song, I wouldn't suggest it. The live performance doesn't make it sound any better (it's from the 90's and awful quality). You may like a live performance of "Stinkfist" more. It's the only song they allow people to record from their concerts, so it has alot of uploads. Here's one that has pretty good audio quality (though I'd still suggest listening to the actual album version first!): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u32G15b2XPs.html Also, the music video for "Stinkfist" is bizarre as hell, watch it if you want to see the weird visuals Tool uses, but avoid if you just want to listen to the song. The music video is very distracting.

dad&son cant read music ...shame

cringe dad

I'm not shaw about that one having not seen tool be for.Can you two react to Led Zeppelin Stair way to heaven live please

It needed to be a shorter song. I was bored. I felt like I was watching someone drum to a Tool song. I felt disconnected from everything else that was happening. From now on, please don't make suggestions for Father and Son reactions while under the influence.
