@nateliebert Yea no internet fags yelling about "no dude you don't play it like that it's the other string first blah blah blah" It's fucking Justin this time!
@bullsnake I guess he kindda looks like him, and since you're saying its him, i believe you. No point in lying right? Question though, is that you filming?
i remember when this first aired i was stationed in florida....the vid aired about 3 weeks before schism hit the radio...i was the first of my bass player friends to know how to play it....
@BloodMusicTrinity Dude, it's him. Hands down. The video skips to show different parts of the song. And the parts he does play are perfect. And Justin's hair hasn't always been shoulder-length. Hell, when he first joined the band he had a buzz cut!
@BloodMusicTrinity That's so obviously Justin I find it hard to believe anyone can say it isn't, AND it has been edited, the picture changes and the timing gets a little fucked up.
@BloodMusicTrinity Look at the date this was posted dude. Schism came out in 01, this video is slightly older than that, meaning its at LEAST a bit older than 10 years old. He grew his hair between Aenima and Lateralus onwards.
@chrisslipknt444 Yeah you didn't read what I said properly lemme explain. This video was made before the Lateralus album aparantly, the album came out over 10 years ago, before his hair was really long (its short again now) Get it??
@Mikemasonrock Very true, it's weird but when a bassists tone is so perfect you can almost tell that they could play slap/tap/pluck/pick/strum as well as each other but just do what suits it.
Good cover man! Couple of very minor errors but can't really fault it. You sound English? Where in UK are you as I offer private lessons at a very good rate. Let me know if you're interested.
Justin rocks....thanks for the music. On a side note you little hookers with penises need to quit arguing with each other over who wrote what and who didn't. Over thinking...over analyzing separates the body from the mind....stay in the moment...geez
@cam01235 The parts themselves aren't exactly difficult, technique wise, they are more complex and difficult in timing. You can't really "count out" the parts as you would with any other material. Justin uses lost of delay and distortions, and almost all Tool songs are in some other time signature besides 4/4. This is why he is good, he is able to concoct smooth bass lines to songs in 15/8 or 6/8 or what have you, which takes real musical knowledge.
@Jalreal yeah timing is always the tricky bit.. i agree u cant always think about the time u need to feel it.. they r always doing interesting timing changes danny carey is just unbelievable i wonder where he gets it from.i think hes into geometric magic or something.i think many times the drum and or bass provides the melody adam seems happy to sit back some times which is good to many guitarist r trying to show how big their balls r which sux! haha they r all awesome players
Tool basslines are not easy to play at all. If you can play Schism, you have achieved something. I have yet to play all the way through perfectly. The hamer-on and off thing is very difficult to play. Anyone can "play it", but if you're actually going to play it properly and not just something close, it's not easy to do over and over again. For me, anyway. And I don't suck bawlz.
I must be missing something. I've been a bass player for 10 years and a guitarist for about 20. I don't see the magic in what this guy does. His sound is great, but that's not a factor of playing, rather, a factor of money spent on gear. Can someone explain to me why this guy is hailed as a god? I mean, he's not bad, but I just don't see it.
@inMYtimeOFneed92 "the magic" is what you all seem to be calling his playing. He IS one of the best--behind Billy Sheehan, Geddy Lee, Robert Trujillo, Rudy Sarzo, Steve Harris, John Myung, and about 1,000 other players I don't have room to name here.
@ctcassidy its the creativity of an artist that gives him the god status.. and obviusly even you havespent 30 years you finally realized that you just arent good... dont be jealous and dont quit your day job
@24opium24 Eeeeaaasy there bud...I was just asking a question. Definitely no jealousy here. (and by the way, music IS my day job--which doesn't happen unless you're pretty good.)
@ctcassidy a musician that gets paid to play whatever crap they give them... looks like a job that suits you. no wonder yo cant see the beauty in tool and probably a load of other bands..
@ctcassidy i don't hail him as a god.....but he is a great bassist.....especially his creativity...he doesn't stick to following the guitar like a lot of bassists do. sure he use's a lot of effects, but what he makes from the effects is stunning to listen to. it's all opinion though, personally i don't like flea very much but i respect that he's a great bassist, just not what i like to listen to
i just love justin's approach to the bass. he is perhaps the only bassist i know who prefers to make the bass beautiful, not a noise in the background
@gis2326 Yes I know that, but the other fella thought this guy in the video was just some dude making a cover of the song, and we all at least know that Chancellor was the bassist for Schism
@gis2326 Paul left the band because of bad chemistry with the other members. Compared to Opiate and Undertow, Ænima is by far the more evolved and refined album. Do you really think you can top Lateralus with their old material, I love the ablums but compared to Lateralus, Aenima and 10,000 days, the quality and musicianship isnt even comparable.
@Wolvve I know why Paul left lol. I was replying to somebody who replied to another. I initially thought that he told the guy that Justin was the first bassist, so I corrected him. I misunderstood what he meant though, because he obviously knew that Paul was the original bassist.
When did I say anything about topping off their "newer" material with their "older" material?
I think there is a certain point in playing ability when someone isnt really a bassist anymore but more of just an artist. idk. i think justin is right at the top end of still being a bassist
@Lemmyshruya4o We all speak, well most of us! It doesn't mean we all think the same just because we say the same things, what matters is the tone in which we say it! Who knows? I know what you mean though, it's like looking at those transparent photos where you see something and someone sees something totally different! You see him as a bassist, but to someone who admires what he does, I mean really admires, he's an artist!
@NTNSLUVMNZUHVNTSCRD Exactly! I was talking about some of the people who play but dont take the standard role of a bassist such as victor wooten, marcus miller and such. I guess i mean justin is still a rhythmic bass player, not a soloist, If that makes any sense at all... haha
To all those comments sayin this isn't Justin from Tool, are you f***ing kiidding me? Are you always so stupid? He's not making mistakes, the video has been edited. He's my favorite bass player in this world, now that Jaco's dead.
I didn't say the 'best', i said the most original. Victor is a supurb player, but i think his style is abit tentious. Justin's style isn't particulary hard, but the sounds, Justin get's out of his bass hits all the right buttons, for me, anyway.
Justin didn't make any mistakes. The video was intentionally cut to show different parts of the song more quickly. After writing this song and playing it night after night I find it hard to believe that he could have messed up more than once in this video.
@EazyRun well yeah,i mean:im not one of those lifeless fans who consider their favorite band as gods or idols , for me are just men ,able to perform extraordinary music, but still im pretty sure for whatever reason he made a hole bunch of mistakes, weird from such a great bass player
@christiannandres Yeah, I was overwhelmed when I saw some live videos of Tool. I always listened to Punk and every band I heard wasn't able to play their songs like they recorded it (what a shame, because the songs were amazing)...
And then, there was Tool! Always played the right notes, used the effects they used in the studio version... Amazing! They are like... I don't know, they mean something to me^^
Maybe he wasn't able to play. I need a little also a little practice, before I can play.
aaah!Are you sure this is Chancellor?Because I'm preety sure if it was him he must have known that the song he wrote is in drop D tuning and this bass is not tuned correct.
I'm surpised anyone needed to wait for him to start flapping around to realise it's not Justin. a) He plays like a dick and b) He can't pronounce 'schism'.
I'm curious about how this video came about... Who is shooting it? Justin looks kind of bored, maybe? Either way, love the guy's style. Maybe, if I play 3 hours a day... I can play most of the bass parts in Tool's songs by age 50.
Highly underrated bassist...Deserves way more respect for what he does. If people knew, Just how hard it really is, To even conceive a bass line like that of...Schism, Or Forty Six and Two, They would have as much respect for this man as the rest of the fans do.
@crix222 Who doesn't give him credit for what he does completely miss understand music and its composition. In other words, they are ignorants!!! We could mention a couple more - Sober, Disposition, Vicarious . . . and pretty much every Tool songs!
@crix222 He is without doubt one of the most underrated bassists. People really should listen closely to a lot of Tool's music and hear just how intricate and exciting Justin's playing is
@ja524309 To be more specific...Paul contributed a little to H. and Justin finished it. Also, I heard that the 46&2 bass line was written completely by Justin and when he showed it to Tool in his audition it was one of the reasons he got the job. They then wrote the whole song around that opening riff. Clearly the entire song structure is in the key of D minor (typical of Tool) and the guitar riffs are all based on that opening riff.
this is a good effort for what looks like is a beginner player. you messed up slightly at 0:14 but its hardly noticeable. PM me and i will show you how to play it. Good luck and keep practicing dude!
Are you serious!? This is Justin Chancellor - he kind of wrote the song. I'm pretty sure he knows how to play it the correct way. You are a total douchebag.
your retarted you know that ! Did you invent the bass guitar? no Then you should not have any right to discrimintate because someone plucks strings differently bwarg. Playing bass with a pick is used for different sounds which is music is all about you dumbass seriously bqarg999 go to hell
If Justin ever made a youtube channel and just played his own music on it Im sure it would be one of th emost highly viewed. For bassist if nothing else.
I think the point is that the guy wrote this bass part and regardless of how well he plays it, I like his music a lot more than any of the haters music I have heard...
he plays it perfectly well in this video, the thing is some stupid persons mistake the sound quality of the video for his playing skills. you have also to note that he played acousticly with no amplifier
you can play schism better than justin chancellor? he wrote it... i love how you cant play better than i him i garantee, let alone maybe you can play his stuff, but you are probably too underskilled to write anything of your own that doesnt sound redicliously retarded.

@danspare Wow. You think you can play Schism, yet you don't know the name of the bassist that wrote the riff? You're the beginner in that sense.

I think the point is that the guy wrote this bass part and regardless of how well he plays it, I like his music a lot more than any of the haters music I have heard...
boddah311 2 years ago
he plays it perfectly well in this video, the thing is some stupid persons mistake the sound quality of the video for his playing skills. you have also to note that he played acousticly with no amplifier

this guy sucks i play schism better than him.
i can honestly say that this sound which you call "music" resembles a cat being beaten within a garbage disposal home unit...truly awfull
yours sincerely, a guy thats better than justin chancer
afroman373eddie 2 years ago
you can play schism better than justin chancellor? he wrote it... i love how you cant play better than i him i garantee, let alone maybe you can play his stuff, but you are probably too underskilled to write anything of your own that doesnt sound redicliously retarded.
