  • sounds like a metal version of Fissure

  • EFFIGY??

    

  • I would like to know who this really is...digging the hell out of it

  • Dude, you guys don't really need to try to fool people by saying this is Tool. This does sound quite similar, but you actually have a good song here. Toot your own horn a bit and maybe you will get some radio play. All in all, not a bad song!

  • This is actually really good..

  • This is actually really good..

  • This is the great Rick roll ever, Im glad I love this

  • NOT "][" {[]} {[]} []_ BUT KINDA COOL.

  • soooo not maynard....... but i agree it is a good song

  • heh. like a mixture of abunch of tool stuff...it's ok. imitation will only get u so far though.

  • Great Song, But not Maynard, nor Danny and everyone who knows TOOL, knows that this is not Adam Jones' guitar sound. I am in a TOOL tribute band, and been a fan since 93... Not TOOL, but a valiant effort..... 

  • I like it.

  • WOW This song is truly kick ass and i agree with xcody0622 it is VERY Tool inspired but really Awesome nonetheless...Good Shit!!!

  • great. really great. the only thing you're lacking is the magic. so many attempts by so many bands; why is it that no one can achieve the magic of TOOL?

  • @dzivri Because there is only one "TOOL" No Other band Evokes The Senses Quite Like TOOL...it has to do with the combination of all four members. The collective of Adam Jones, Justin Chancellor, Danny Carey and Maynard James Keenan produce a sound and a feeling that is Unlike Anything Else!!!

  • Uh... ummm... WOW!!! Whether it sounds like Tool, or even if it is saying "thinking of you" which I believe is a song by APC... THIS KICKS ASS! I do wish I could hear the lyrics a bit more, or read them somewhere... Anyway. Hell of a good song and band/musicians.

  • not even near tool, but pretty cool anyway

  • One: This Is not Tool

    Two: I am mad you lied

    Three: FUCKING AWESOME SONG

    four: where do i get?

    Five: DONT LIE TO ME!

  • The band name is in the description. Forgot to look there myself until now, haha.

  • WOW this is amazing...not tool, but amazing none the less

  • Wow, this song is so great!!!!!!!!

  • HOLY FUCKING SHIT!! This is awesome!!

  • This notional Tool band sounds pretty good.

  • Good stuff. I like what I hear :)

  • Definitivamente NO es TOOL. Pero tiene muy buena potencia y conserva la esencia de la banda. Hasta me animo a decir que tienes influencia de Incubus. Buena música. Sigue así.

  • This sounds exactly like tool! It has the same sound, spirit, and style! Damn good!

  • awesome. thanks man

  • impressive

  • some parts look like vicarious.good try though...

  • wow truly mind blowing visuals, and the songs good too...

  • fooled me, Danny Drum beat is in 3/4 scale,

  • a true tool fan would know this is not tool, BUT a good song nonetheless and def a ripoff of tool. sounds alot like them.

  • had me fooled.... who is it?

  • OOOoohh I like what I hear..... Thats what matters

  • it's a complete ripoff of all things tool, drumming, guitaring, song structure, singing.... but Tool is the best there is right now and all music is a ripoff of a ripoff so good choice and good song.

  • @MikeyRGuitar Iseewatudidthere

  • Not tool but great nonetheless

  • Yea i agree with all the other comment's this is a great song this remind's me off tool and my band when we get together and jamm this totaly my style of drumming i could tell it was fake from the drum's sorry but Danny's kit would sound much more clear, but very well done boy's on the recording and the song VERY WELL DONE im sure u have fooled many into thinking this is a tool song :D million thumbs up :D

  • This is good music. Reminds me how excited I was every time I heard a Tool album for the first dozen of times ;)

    Not sure if you know this but there's a link to the band's site and you can buy and download their album there, it's really cheap and you get to support a good indie band.

  • this is really good it would have taken me a minute to discern Maynard from your singer. You really captured the spirit of the band

  • This is a reverse play of Vicarious or some Tool's song..... looks like you played backward of the track...... smart

  • @tsugam27 I was thinking the same thing. I think that's exactly what it is. Sounds cool though.

  • I think so.this song's veryvery good^^vTool?or Who play this?

  • wtf is this

    is very good, very very good

    someone teel me please

  • @86animetal Hola! La banda se llama Effigy. Chécate arriba su link en my space. Saludos desde Guadalajara!

  • hi from mexico, sorry for my english.

    obviusly this is not tool, but, it's very very good.

    someone tell me who play this song.

  • I Kinda like it tool or not but i hear bits and pieces of tool and apc songs in there

  • sounds awesome duder

    

  • I dont care if it's tool or not. The sound is pretty good, it´s needed fresh blood in music and this is very good material. You just keep on working on your songs. Im from chile and sounds like this is needed in concerts. Hope see you soon.

  • not the style of Tool. And unfortunately not Maynard's voice :(

    But a good song!

  • @PhilExXxTreM Thats where you're wrong. It's exactly like Tool's style... if their style was mixing up songs and playing them backwards and faster. Listen closely and you can hear the first three riffs from Vicarious and the part that comes after the mandala solo in Right in Two. It's definitely some weird mix of Tool songs.

  • ottima traccia!!

  • This Aint Tool. End of the Discussion.

  • This is a really great song, but is this even available purchase or download? I looked at your guys' page, and your songs are great, but none are available for distribution.

  • Good job, got any other?

  • @mperezra click More Videos from them

  • the only time i haven't been pissed off at a "fake tool song"... It's really good, and has potential. Dont listen to ppl saying its a ripoff and shit

  • I love the description, rofl... Good song btw

  • it's a bit too close to tool, but the song kicks ass so great job! Keep working on your own sound you hide behinde the tool sound and you'll get there! :)

  • Sounds good, but get your own sound, Seriously. about as original as a tribute band. Actually the more I listen the more im convinced you should be sued.

  • For once, I am glad I was deceived by a title on You Tube. This song kicks ass! Thanks @Effigy26.

  • isnt tool actually coming out with a new album tho?

  • @slayerxv Their website did release a Newsletter claiming that it would be released 22 May 2012, regardless of how much they had completed, but the Newsletter isn't much to go by seeing as its filled with random shit about Predictions of the end of the world and stuff about aliens, idk didn't hold my attention compared to "No matter how many new TOOL tunes are currently complete" which was weird.

  • I went through Effigy myspace page and listened to a few songs of their album and although I know I will offend some Tool fans (I am one by the way) this new band could be considered to be Tools child and evolution, so I am saying that they are better than Tool but my love for Tool is far from lost, I will therefore consider their album to be the new Tool album and advise all Tool fans to listen to it, I hope that you understand this is only my opinion. Votre musique est magnifique Effigy merci!

  • This sounds amazing! Glad you lied in the title lol. Probably would have never discovered it if you hadn't :)

  • si señor! pero esto q es un adelanto de nuevo lp???? yeeeeaaaaahhhhhh

  • Is not tool (Danny Carey plays way different), but sounds kick ass.

  • who cares if its tool its great

  • this sounds like a tool demo, the drums sound programmed, also...has anyone given any thought to the fact this "band" is called "effigy", an effigy is a false representation of something, i.e. TOOL releasing a scratch track through another band name to FUCK WITH YOU....

  • @gonzomaniac71 I think the more likely scenario is that some band that sounds like tool wanted to get their usic out there so they put up a "Hey look tool put out a new song" to get more views.

  • @Crestfallen86 I suppose anything could happen, but this name "effigy" its just too perfect, I think we all know how much Tool loves fucking with people, I think this song might be a 'straw man' they intend to burn instead of setting themselves on fire, figuratively speaking of course

  • It's not Tool, but I admit, it sounds a lot like them.

  • Ok.I found it.This is Holy Broken from the band Effigy.There is nothing about Tool

  • seems like a speed up remix of vicarius, doesn't it? maybe my mind has blown up when i see NEW ALBUM wow

  • can't seem to turn the volumne up loud enough. FUCK!

  • the drummer is pretty easy i'd say he's a EASY DRUMMER!

  • Almost there! these guy are pretty good though...

  • This seriously is not tool, wow!. Best fucking clone I have ever heard. I have been listening to this song for almost 4 months, on the dattoneboy version. I seriously thought this was tool, and i have been a tool fan for 16 years.

  • definitely the closest to tool I've ever heard in another band

  • yeah this song is prettty dope, who is it?

  • I dont think they suck at all they need there own idenity

  • Wow I really was fooled! So if its not tool then who is this band?

  • Okay so this ISN'T in fact Tool, right? Still really good.

  • U are no tool.  Well maybe you are in your own literal way.

  • EYACULO !!!

  • this is too raw to be tool. sounds more like a mix between deftones and chevelle

  • Just chill out on tool for a moment and get the new puscifer albem!!THIS IS NOT TOOL!!!!Jackasses!!!

  • shit i heard the original video and thought it was real! awesome band nevertheless!

  • You know...the main thing that most tool-like bands lack is the type of broad structure and epic build-up that tool has....tool always sounds EPIC near the end of their songs... This song definitely has that progressive metal sound...but its still not TOOL...The vocals are also trying....to mimic maynard... Lol I remember some random early tool interview where maynard joked about how he wanted songs to masturbate to and so he changed the "climax" points to just the right timing... Lol

  • @PizzaHunter2011 Everything that needed to be said! Bravo. It's just sad. See, this guys obviously have talent, but all they do is emulate Tool. They should spend their talent on something truly innovative. I'd buy it.

  • Apology accepted.

  • I like it but this is a bite from tool they sound just like Tool but are so not,Yet they sound cool but they need to find their own sound and not copy anyone else's

  • @Bishop5010 almost ALL bands "copy" various Ideas from eachother though ... I like it :)

  • has a similar early tool sound but no...

  • good copy of tool

    

  • not tool but sounds cool 

  • Comment removed

  • Nope not TOOL.

  • se parece a la banda CIRE escuchenla es tool en verdad

  • yeah this sounds like tool.....oooh it is tool :D vicarious backwards

  • Can someone please tell me if this is really Tool?!?!?

  • @Uzingniga20 fuk yea thats those dudes like no other brother ........damn they crunch

  • @Uzingniga20 its not tool if you click the myspace link it takes u too effigys page they sound tool-like u can listen to more of there songs their sounds really cool though

  • pretty awesome very tool-like i see why u would have tool up there so u would have ppl listen to the band sounds very kickass though keep up the work

  • This is by Effigy. It's called Holy Broken. A pretty good stunt for them seeing how it sounds tool-esque. But no, it's not TooL. Tool puts much more emphasis on Bass and Drums.

    @Effigy If the rest of your material had such...symmetry then I'd like the rest as much as this one.

    Have you ever thought about at ~3:17 mark having the bass continue the riff without the rest for a couple measures then adding the muted guitar riff a couple more measures before adding the drums back in ~3:33?

  • the truth shall b known on the new album whether this is authentic or not. as a lifelong fan i myself cannot decipher whether it is authentic(i understand i am no authority either) yes there are slight discrepancies, but aren,t these expected considering that it is leaked. and if it is another band i would love to know who it is as i cant get enough of this polyrythmic sequencing that only TOOL seems capable of channeling into this reality.

  • @jt7ta7a7 And Karnivool, and Rishloo. Both amazing bands with the funky sick time signatures and rhythms.

  • This is awesome!

  • I was pretty sure this was the Real Deal Tool song....

    Please don't tell me this is by a different band. This sounds exactly like them... This has to be the real band TooL! IT HAS TO BE THEM!

  • good job guys!! would like to have this on my ipod

  • Don't think it's Tool but sounds good no matter how close. Keep playing and find your own way. Tool gave you a beginning, find an end.

  • can you sendme all your songs please?? or at least give me a link i want it on my computer for studying, i use to listen to tool or some meditation music but this will work! great stuff dude, another favor wich software did you use for your songs? i used to work with dfh on flstudio. greetings from cancun mexico!

  • Why didnt you film ur band playing it? Now I feel like a tool lol

  • Look at related videos, this exact song is there with title claming its new tool song.

  • its not tool... it says so in the title ppl... hello... but its a great song, and its awsome. Glad tool inspired someone to make music... that is great.

  • Tool or not, this is a Great track, This is the kind of music the industry needs , so even if its not tool , even with its Tool under tones, this is worth listening to. but i read in your comment bleow maynard and autotone, i doubt it as well, but maynard is and has been in the past very experimental with his vocal techniques. idk , either great track. be proud whoever mde it, long live Tool

  • Its such a fkn good song it has to be tool

  • Its tool u fool!

  • @4477waz This is not Tool, it's effigy's band (as you can understand even from the "my" at the beginning of the title) It's a god song by someone who obviously like Tool and try to make art as they do.

  • maynard and autotune? Are you jocking, 'tard??

  • this song almost jus like vicarious in the beginning

  • ok all u stupid retards any tool fan would kno that this is tool, listen to the time signatures the guitar is making and jus the sound of the pickups, and i have to admit his voice sounds a little different but theres always somthing different in every album and anyways its been 5 yrs they make and album every 5, this defanetly is tool bro

  • Tool will be pissed at this

  • We will see how well I know tool when it comes out

  • Listern to the musicians its them and the voice is mjk.

  • It is tool 4sure, no doubt

  • I think you are wrong, urabusxrw04. You can clearly hear the influences of some Tool-Songs. Even the voice of the singer is very similar to MJK..

    Even if this not a Tool Song I like it very much. ;) Good work!

  • This sounds nothing like tool

  • Wow!
