One of Kirk's favorite, and a song I believe I've heard before. This has some deep meaning, if you truly dive into the lyrics. I had some help. And I know a lot of you have your own interpretations and will correct me down below. I won't hold a grudge.

Okay hopefully Elizabeth can see this. I know you live Dio for his powerful voice. I'm begging you to listen to lilliac do a cover of Holy Diver. . You will be absolutely stunned about her talent. Also lilliac is made up of lead vocalist who's voice is unlike any other woman's voice. Drummer is her sister. Keyboard by her brother. And then their other brother is lead guitar. First time I heard it it just came on as I was running some music in the background and working on my car. I stopped what I was doing and geeked out on their music.

That scream is not giving up on everything. Imagine holding a grudge for 25 years. Then you finally learn to let it go......25 years of pain, sinking, depression, anger finally goes away. The release of all that stored sh*t is what the scream encapsulates.

@jonny555ive 10 месяцев назад

100% agree with you. Absolute MASTERS of their musicianship. And Maynard..... I mean C'mon, the only other person that blows me away, vocally is Mike Patton from Faith no More. Both are absolutely insanely talented, vocally lyrically they just are THE top of their craft. Every one of them is an amazing musician. I wish there was more music like this in the world but I'm glad there isn't because it makes it that much more special.

@CC_Babblecock 8 месяцев назад

I have to politely disagree with you here! Or maybe partly disagree depending on what way you meant it. He did a video interview with Rick Beato in ‘22, the most I’ve ever seen him talk about his music, and the process (for Tool) is that the three others do the instrumentals, making sure they each feel comfortable with their level of individual focus in the track (how noticeable prob depends on the track, anyway, point being they all try to be fair and equal), then he gets it, drives around listening to it, seeing what vibe or thoughts it gives him, intentionally DOESN’T overthink it, or it will lose that intuitive magic he has, so he does it in an almost subconscious / semi conscious way I guess, and then adds the vocals in making sure everything fits properly. He said he does this really quickly from getting the music to being done with his part. I think it was the same interview? Where Maynard said the others are always saying why was it so quick, and he jokingly quipped “I HAD 50 YEARS!” (He’s actually almost 60, but obv. meaning his life experience) to write them. So I completely agree the production / post is calculated, they’ve always used the same engineer I believe, but I don’t agree for Maynard. He goes with his intuition, and basically treats himself like an audience member hearing it, the only real calculated part is blending with the time signatures and syllables he uses. I would have agreed with you before I saw that, because he’s never spoken about it in depth before. Being called talented myself on at least one main instrument, I can’t get my head around how smart they all are, outside of their talent, that throwing something as intricate as this together is probably the same for them as getting a drink of water. You’d really enjoy the interview - just search Rick Beato Maynard or something 👍 It COMPLETELY changed the way I saw Maynard and Tool. I no longer think Maynard is hugely pretentious. I think he gets frustrated because he is goal oriented and quick, and he had to distance himself because he couldn’t handle the “egos”. He came off so calm and down to earth, I just think he’s introverted, probably had a hard time with the internal drama, and didn’t want to talk trash about his bandmates, so people took that as him being an a$$hole because he wouldn’t talk about Tool. Let me know what you think if you watch it!

Great song, crushes me every time.

I could let some things just be... but just as in the song, every now and then the grudge gets me back for a bit. and I definetly remember wearing the grudge like a crown as a teenager.... and clinging to it as a last straw. the whole song hits very close to home for me.

Lateralus(the album) was released back when compact discs were the marketplace standard. The face of the disc was designed to look like a buzz saw, with the teeth circling the outer edge of the disc. So when you inserted the disc and pressed play the first sound you hear is the sound of a buzz saw beginning to spin before The Grudge begins to play. Love that extra detail.

Every (common factor of the 3 different beats) they come together. Adam said that a lot of times he's just on autopilot and thinking about doing his laundry or something, but that on some of those really complex songs with crazy time signatures he really has to pay attention.

The songs aren't usually in English, but you did Ave Maria so hopefully that's not an issue. There's an amazing live version (2012 tour finale) of the song "Niji" (Rainbow) you could react to (or Lost Heaven or Hitomi no Jyuunin or even one of Hyde's solo songs, like Season's Call).

I read a bunch of comments but not all, I don't know if anyone answered her question that she started with but the song starts off with the sound of an Elevator starting its ascent. It signifies the journey of consciousness raising that this album emulates. If you track the consciousness that each of the songs is coming from, you'll find that these are the steps to healing and freeing oneself of the ego struggle. So the album, from song to song, is a lifting of consciousness starting with the Elevator moving. This album is essentially Tool's way of teaching their listeners how to heal. It starts with the BLAME level of consciousness with this song and finishes with Reflection and Triad which are the freeing from the ego and experiencing Great Spirit. This IS and will probably ALWAYS BE my favorite album of all time.

I must say I've really been loving your reactions to Tool. It's given me an even deeper appreciation for the music and because I haven't seen others discuss this in the comments, I'll add this to the discussion. Although the use of Saturn in the lyrics has meaning in regard to the planet, the symbolism is far more closely tied to the myth of Zeus' father Cronus consuming his children to prevent them from overthrowing him eventually. The roman name for Cronus was Saturn. "Saturn comes back around Lifts you up like a child or drags you down like a stone To consume you till you choose to let this go " The myth goes that Cronus had, after discovering a prophecy claiming that he would be overthrown by his children (What would become the main Greek pantheon), immediately consumed each of them after their birth. Rhea, Zeus' mother, decided to have Zeus secretly and instead gave Cronus a stone wrapped in a blanket to consume. Zeus would secretly grow up and overthrow his father in the same manner that Cronus had overthrown his own father Uranus, signifying the cyclic nature of grudges and vengeance. The entire song is in large part a message that has been articulated in many ways at many times for thousands of years. The cycle of hatred will continue on, coming back around with each new generation, until you choose to let it go.

@samieltheinfamous 2 года назад

Cronus was also the god of time, which I think plays very heavily into the theme of Saturn returning, in the sense that history repeats itself. Terry Pratchett has written that time is a wheel, which of course lends itself to the idea that what goes around comes around, particularly in matters of vengeance, violence and holding a grudge.

The delay on the guitar you mentioned on the beginning is actually the bassist. Justin Chancellor's riffs blend in so beautifully they become part of and defines the music.

Haha I actually believe this is the very first TOOL video she has reacted to where she has actually mentioned the bass guitar.

@TheBlackQueen Год назад

This is one of many examples of Tool using Polyrhythms. The main beat is 5/4, as you initially said, but the bass and drums at the beginning are playing a 5/16 riff on top of it which is hard to discern because of how fast it is. A great tool for finding 5/16 riffs is a phrase that Frank Zappa coined in his song Inca Roads: "Guacamole Queen" Repeat this very fast with each of the 5 syllables on a 16th of a beat and you'll create a perfect 5/16 rhythm.

One of the reasons the time signature changes feel so smooth is the way Dany introduces his polyrhythms. He blends them into each other so gently that you barely notice that it even happened. They then shift each instrument layer by layer into the new time signature. Boom, they just switched and you barely noticed it happened and have a hard time nailing down the measure that it happened.

Burned them to cd, and walked around the neighborhood the studio was in and asked random people to use their stereos just to see what it sounded like so that they could find the perfect middle ground so that it sounded good on any sound system.

He talked about how it was just a bunch of random stereos, cheap cd boomboxes, some good ones, I think even a car stereo or 2, they didn't care, they wanted it to sound good on everything so they tried anything.

27 years is saturn's revolution... This song has occult meanings and the whole album has references to the chakra system... Probably my favorite Tool album

27 years is also how much time they like to put between each album.

@@kredonystus7768 no they wait 10,000 days; duh that’s what that album is for😂

Fun Fact: Maynard and bandmates used to not stream their music on streaming services. Quoting that "Tool is more of an experience rather than just a song." They prefer their fans to enjoy the whole album as a piece on its own! They also usually don't allow cameras at live shows.

And they mean it. Same with APC and Puscifer. The last time I saw them they did allow us to record for about 15 minutes near the end of the show, which was amazing and unexpected.

That was my favorite day in a decade, when Tool was online..

That was everything I wanted it to be. Not only, as always, was your analysis as interesting and educational as it was delightful to listen to... But your surprise, turning to shock, turning to amazement, turning to admiration at THE SCREAM. So good.

@loc-o5282 Год назад

Loved the analysis. Really felt your enthusiasm. I felt moved by the combination of the the music and your reaction.

I played in a Tool tribute band years ago... it is just as amazing learning their songs as it is to listen and analyze them... and the more you listen to their music, the more you are drawn in to their vibe

It’s beyond me how drummers can do it!

@st3althyone 2 года назад

For me it’s all about the drums, and there’s no one like Danny Carey to show you what’s possible when you reach his level of experience, just amazing! Also, I view that 25 second scream near the end as a catharsis, it’s the best way I can explain it. Thank you for featuring so many songs from my all time favorite band, I am and will continue to be a Tool listener for life! They may not be the most consistent bands when it comes to releasing new music, but what they put out is so out of this world that it makes up for it, it’s a quality over quantity issue in my opinion.

danny has reached a stratospheric level … as a drummer i always appreciated danny’s playing, but he has reached a crazy high level.

@st3althyone 2 года назад

@@WittyCaMoNinja I definitely agree with you about Danny’s druming, he’s reached the peak of what any drummer would even aspire to. I love his way of keeping multiple time signatures with each hand and foot, it’s a treat watching/hearing him play. I’ve caught a few of Tool’s concerts and they’re so epic live, it’s on another level, it’s mind-blowing.

@lesflynn4455 2 года назад

I agree. The drums have no peer. But imo it's about so much more than the drums. Just imagine if Brett Michaels or Sebastian Bach got the vocals job back in the late 80s. They'd still be singing about girls, drugs and beer.

I love your fresh, enthusiastic, articulate insights into a song I've listened to a hundred times - there are always new layers and angles to appreciate Tool's music. And yes, "The Scream"!

Finding Tool is the epitome of finding beauty in the dissonance. Especially for musicians who have the capacity to recognize phenomenal music composition. This album is incredible, to incorporate the golden ratio/Fibonacci sequence into the time signature in Lateralus elevates these musicians to whole other level of legendary. People that really get Tool are hard to find, but they are my favorite people. Honestly, there are very few things in this fallen world that I truly enjoy. The music of this band is one of them. 🤘😈🤘

@stevesearle9144 2 года назад

I just watched the Trybals video of them reacting to your singing. I've never heard any of your singing up until now. I know you're an opera singer, but I had absolutely no idea. My mind was totally blown by how powerfully you sang. I was NOT prepared for that.

@belh4wk Год назад

i was introduced to Tool by my best friend who told me that Tool's music sometimes felt like music you had to go sit in a corner in the fetal position to and cry and I honestly feel he was spot on; the first time i dove into their music, it was really overwhelming, the time-signatures, the singing-style, the way he elongates vowels and then seemingly chops up lyrics into one-word lines in a verse, mindboggling.

@downbytheriver501 Год назад

Research the song "lateralus" on this same album. it has a beautiful message that correlates strongly to the Fibonacci sequence, both in lyrics and time signatures. Their music is about as artistic as it comes. 🙂

Tool basically raised me.. and i still listen to them now .. I had the priveledge to see them live .. the music, the lyrics.. its all just amazing.. i never get tired of it..
