@andrewballinger4174 4 года назад

From a musical standpoint Fear Innoculum is completely unparalleled to the rest of their work. The music has grown up and evolved exponentially with the band with each release, amazing that they have gone from such a generic sound on Undertow to some of the most complex music ever recorded on Fear Innoculum. Tool's brilliance is something to be treasured, if the aliens ever come to Earth from a distant Galaxy we should give them Fear Innoculum as I think it is the greatest representation of the creativity of human consciousness ever conceived musically. Simply incredible! 🤯🤯

@chrisj323 4 года назад

Undertow wasn’t really generic when it came out. It’s since been aped by a lot of bands, but it was pretty fresh for its day and got them a lot of attention for it.

@thebatman6201 3 года назад

I think they realized how their work has evolved too. When I listen to "mockingbeat" it makes me think of their messier older music before it sort of emerged into what it is today

@christinel.4827 2 года назад

I agree with you, Andrew. I recently discovered this album, after knowing just a few random songs by them. Now I’m familiar with all their albums. This one just grabs me a bit more than the others. At least right now. (Music tends to follow along closely with my life events.) Your comment also reminded me of a question I asked my family a few years back. I asked them what achievement of mankind would they share with an alien species to describe who we truly are as a species? My first immediate thought was music. It was interesting to see what other people thought of though too.

Anyone who is not moved listening to tool isn't really listening. They have touched my soul for a very long time now and I believe Fear Inoculum is their best work. All of it is amazing.

@jayjax229 4 года назад

I tend to agree with you about your assessment of the band as a whole, however I feel the exact opposite about Fear Inoculum and feel like it is far and away their weakest album. It seems like the rest of their music is a 'point/counterpoint' of the expectations of the listener. But I get the feeling that the inspirations for this album are just old Tool albums, which really seems to water down the sound. After listening to the entire album, I just really wanted to listen to 10,000 Days again, because I feel like this was just '10,000 Days lite'. You're obviously entitled to your opinion and I can't really refute that in any way, but just thought I would share my opinion. This band is incredible and it's interesting that they don't have a definitive 'best' album like many other artists do, to me it highlights the 'personability' (best made up word I could come up with) of the music.

Important note, I expect to change my tune (pun fully intended) in about five years after I've really soaked in Fear Inoculum.

@matucker1621 4 года назад

Can’t say best ,, but can agree that anyone not moved by them has not listened...at least enough or correctly. I have to listen to some songs and even albums several times before it finally hits me where they intended or where I needed it. Tool looks at their audience as artists and expects them to put effort into their interpretation of the music, which may require multiple listens and possibly the right life situation. Fear innoculum the song itself, was immediately moving to me. I cannot say that for the rest of the album although I can say that I have put in enough effort to now be moved by all songs on the album. But it’s till not like Lateralus or even 10,000 days for me. But it is excellent and a phenomenal album.

Borderline flawless; great informative breakdown. The only nitpick that I feel it necessary to point out is that the bass begins with the guitar in the third bar of the song. The guitar and bass do a left to right "call and response" of volume swells.

not true at all. Tool is more or less a cult band. No radio AirPlay, no MTV, just die hard fans. In fact Tool played my town a couple years ago and Danny was chilling out downtown and no one knew who he was. I’ve seen people argue that Phil Collins is the worlds best drummer. Laughable of course. I think he’s the best ever. Most pop morons wouldn’t know a tool tune any way.

@clear_gray_sky539 4 года назад

Some of the bongo sounding drums are tablas from India. Tablas are one of the most complicated hand drums in the world to play . Danny I believe is playing electronic tablas on his Korg wave drum or his mandala electric drums .he was taking tabla lessons many years ago I’m not sure if he still plays them

@avoqado89 4 года назад

Came to make this comment because saying bongos twice triggered me to pause the video. I'm pretty sure it's two different tabla sets - one higher & one lower. Maybe a khol or something? But my first listen, I could tell it was really Tool when I heard those tablas come in. Bongo playing has a lot going for it, but it doesn't have as sharp of a bass-snare sound as a tabla. The high drum is played very fast (like a roll) or with a strong attack (like a rim shot), & the low drum is played against the palm to raise or lower the tone. Then, in the bridge, Danny Carry mimics the palm bend technique (not sure if he used his hand or the other stick, or one of his octopus tentacles) with his toms to create those bendy tones.

@northspack 4 года назад

why are tablas so hard to play there a hand drum like any other? i am confused why there the hardest drum to learn ?

@blaeke64 4 года назад

I believe he still actually plays the tabla drums on the record, but just uses the drumpad at live shows for convenience sake. It's kind of hard to swiftly switch between bare hand drumming and picking up the sticks as happens in this song.

@clear_gray_sky539 4 года назад

northspack in classical Indian music they don’t have time signatures instead they use beat cycles . A lot of the beat cycles have an odd number of beats . Also in the middle of the cycle at any point you can insert another beat cycle then finish where you left off in the original cycle . The way you physically play tabla is harder than probably all other hand drums because of the types of strikes you make on the drums the beat called na for instance your finger hits the rim of the small tabla while ur ring finger lightly mutes the surface of the drum and the speed at witch most songs are played is very fast . Just youtube someone playing tabla and you will see what I mean . I play a lot of instruments including a drum set . I have a good set of tablas and its a very difficult instrument theirs lots of little kids on youtube that can play better than I will ever be able to !

Nicely done! I know working musicians that struggle with Tool because of the changing time signatures and use of polyrhythms. You talked about one of the major keys to understanding and learning Tool songs - the simplicity underneath the sonic complexity. I struggled as well until I stumbled onto that element some time ago - but I couldn't explain it to others as simply as you! (FWIW, dynamics is the other concept they use masterfully - and also hard for me to explain to others in simple terms) Now don't leave us hanging too long for part 2, where the real the fun begins!

@hetornhetorn 4 года назад

Songs on this album are kinda like geometrical shapes one above the other forming a bigger shape. Here on Fear Inoculum, later on in the song we hear how Justin and Adam exchange sections of the song while the other plays a different part and still accents fall into the same place. They kinda foreshadow the whole song from the beginning, they respect this shapes they presented before and end the three of them (Adam, Justin and Danny) at the same time. Every new section in the song plays while an older riff is playing so there's no cut in the shape the song was having before. In Pneuma we can see this, as an example, with the notes Carey plays at the intro and how they're revisited with the bass and synth in the middle instrumental section. There are this riffs or sections in the album played by one intrument (or sung by Maynard) and later another instrument plays that same part to add and build the song over the previous parts. It's been interesting finding this references inside the songs about previous moments of that same song. My favorite song in which I exercise this is without a doubt Invincible. A song so layered that it's nuts.

@increase9896 4 года назад

100% agree with Invincible. When I first heard invincible there were all these parts in the beginning that I expected were being foreshadowed for callbacks later on in the song... its really powerful when you hear something specific return in the song and usually it returns sounding more dynamic or with additional flair but still familiar. Such an enjoyable participatory listen every time if you are paying attention. At the same time I enjoy just zoning out to their songs and rocking

Hey dude 54k views is awesome, because this is genuine awesome content on what in my and a lot of other peoples opinions is the best album released in a long time. Definitely got a sub, would love to see more of this. 👌👍👍

@dinkurdead4392 4 года назад

Hey I’m not sure if you noticed or not, but all of the short tracks equal 12:27 which is literally 20 seconds off of invincible. Which I think is the true representation of the album and it’s meaning, fear innoculum was just a single hook, invincible is the line, the short tracks, they have to be the sinker. I’m not sure if I’m right or not, but we all know Maynard, he wants it hidden. So of course it doesn’t match up exactly, we have 20 free seconds to figure out where all the songs go. I don’t know if any of this even makes sense to you, but I can explain more if you want

really awesome video! I knew about Tool before but i have recently dove deep into listening to it and holy damn was i missing out!! so good, also BTW you look very similar to another RU-vidr called Mathias (Dope or Nope)

Please, what is you classical guitare reference ? I know it's a bit out of subject and you didn't use it in that video, but I would be really happy to know. Keep the good videos ! Thanks a lot :-)

dude ! it is not congoes or bongo.....it a "tabla" ...as in the instrument Danny's guru Alok dutta plays, simulated on the "mandala" pad played with sticks.

On another post someone said MJK flaked it on the lyrics, wtf "Division through Mania", thats exactly what the hell is going on right this moment in America!!! Ok I know, each to their own, and own interpretation, some digress.....after I say that all of MJK's work kicks ass and motivates me daily!! #Toolarmy

@christinel.4827 2 года назад

I’m not sure if you’ve analyzed other Tool songs, but I would suggest giving them a listen. I think Lateralus would be a good one for you. 😉

@lazyGreenMonster 4 года назад

I think it is Tabla sound and not Bongo. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

@harlequin904 2 года назад

Loving the deconstructed version of this song.

@phobosrising9849 4 года назад

There are no bongos. Danny is a Tabla student of Aloke Dutta. Those are the percussions you hear throughout the album, and also one of the reasons his polyrhythms fit under and over the whole album so we'll.

@jvig7353 4 года назад

Not a challenge, just a question: why do you consider the first part in 4/4 as opposed to 8/8 which is usually how we articulate rhythms that do things like 3 3 2, 3 2 3 and 2 3 3?

@Holistic-songwriting 4 года назад

Matter of habit. 8/8 would technically be more correct, you're right.

@AristotleFullThrottle 4 года назад

Not to split hairs but the intro is played on bass using volume knob swells. I also thought it was guitar until I saw them live recently. Great vid!

@Psychedeloshippie 3 года назад

I’m gonna be that guy and tells you the bass comes in at the beginning with the guitar with a volume swell as well but it’s on the + of 1 so it’s off time with the guitar. Pretty cool.

@angbernardo 4 года назад

I recently heard that Mark Baressi used an Eventide H9 with an expression pedal to capture many of the delays and reverbs heard throughout the album

The bass is there with the guitar in the beginning as well. It follows the volume swells like a delay.

@chloemchll3774 4 года назад

Love your videos; it has helped me understand a lot about how artists work their craft. With respect to Tool, I’ve always thought their music has a sort of modern classical music element to it (especially with all the polyrhythms and unusual time signatures) but that from a compositional perspective, it’s almost as if they are using structures straight out of the symphonic masters (in particular, I have thought they use Sonata Allegro form frequently, albeit somewhat modified, particularly where the recapitulation would be.) I was wondering if you thought about anything like this, especially in light of your repeatedly using the term “development” for the section following the second chorus (which is where I would say this song moves from exposition to development if we try and consider it as a sonata allegro form movement)? Several of the new songs I feel fit that structure well (especially if it is amended to include intro and coda sections bookending the meat of the movement, so to speak) and I’ve used it as a way of better understanding (I think) Tool’s music since I became familiar with how the sonata allegro form works while I was at college (so basically since Lateralus). Sorry if this is a long message but I hope you (or others) get a chance to respond as I’d love to get your thoughts on this.

What's the word used to explain a journey taken for no reason, and with nothing gained in the end, but where the people who take said journey, continuously claim to have achieved something, even though there is no proof of said gains and their lives don't change?

excellent video and explanation, during the change to 11/8, I saw Adam doing a little dance, when I saw them live in October, to what I think he is doing to keep his timing (you might be able to see this in some live performances).

@mattamongtheashes1206 4 года назад

Somebody's already said this I'm sure but the notes at the beginning I'm almost positive are swells where the actual volume knob is turned on the guitar as theyre played

@marklacroix373 Год назад

It's interesting how people provide ideas and concepts to things that do not have a hand in creating it. Why do you need abstractions about music or anything for that matter? What are you accomplishing? Are people trying to articulate how intelligent they think they are?

@torisutin 4 года назад

I appreciate your understanding of music theory, but I expected a little bit more from the video. You break down the structure of each core part of the song and how they work, but why is it special? What about it gives tool a unique sound? How does that compare to traditional mainstream music? I feel like these questions would bring a lot more depth to your video. Otherwise, great job!

@LeadGuitarWorkshop 4 года назад

@ethanspiro4654 4 года назад

Considering this is largely a dissection of the hard work that Adam, Justin and Danny all hammer out together, i think it's a little lame that you're throwing Maynard alone in your video thumbnails. I mean, show them all if you're gonna put such a big emphasis on the musical construction, since those three did much of the heavy lifting in that regard.

@GlitchComputer 4 года назад

@jaypaans3471 4 года назад

Might I make a Suggestion: is it possible to include a moving line* as a marker for the current time position when you display the score, to match it to the actual sound? Would be extra helpful for people who are not that great with reading notes and all :) Also, a label for the different instruments (to go with the bars) would be nice. Maybe use some colors to visually emphasize the different groups and time signatures? * I don't know the actual name for it?
