TOOL -Stranglehold (Rare Ted Nugent cover)

[TheJohnnypaul]

ted doesnt need to play tool nuf said!

[matjanin]

Yep, like I told you back in 95'. You're laying down, sucking up to the man. Now you've butchered classic rock tunes......how far does the dick go down your throat?



[takethehighway711]

This sucks.

[om3gadagg3r]

Sounds like shit. Butchered a classic.

[XeroFDM]

@om3gadagg3r It's a live performance. Not everything is recorded in a studio.

[om3gadagg3r]

@XeroFDM No shit sherlock, Uncle Ted plays it the same studio or live.

[DarcHunter]

@om3gadagg3r well congratu-fuckin-lations for him. Not everyone can do that. This is Tool and I'm pretty sure this was recorded off of a non-professional camera. Along with that, Tool has a different style. Respect that.

[om3gadagg3r]

@DarcHunter Respect? How about respect for Uncle Ted? They made his song sound like shit. I dont have to respect their style when they are doing a cover of someone elses music. Are you for real?

[DarcHunter]

@om3gadagg3r Yes I'm "for real". And they do have respect for him. Why else would they do this cover? And once more, it sounds like "shit" because of bad recording and a different style. If you knew Tool, did you really think that they would play this any other way? Jesus bloody Christ, put your tampon in and appreciate the damn music.

[editman76]

Why did they ruin a perfectly good song?

[kevduer]

In his sleep he could play Tool....

[toomanyminges]

Great Band....Bad cover

[aceface1968]

wtf were these guys thinking? This blows

[UdenOneEye]

@aceface1968 - The audio quality does kind of blow... but the track itself is sick.

[JR871111]

nice



[JR871111]

nice



[bakersfieldmusicnow]

shweeet

[jmjomar7]

Tool is good, but that was awful.

[patstarz]

is this supposed to sound good??? horrible! i hate it when tool does covers, and i love tool.

[GypsyHSM]

@patstarz I am right there with you on this one. This oil and water, vampires and lycans, Zsa Zsa Gabor and Lady Gaga - this is just so wrong

[fortune42100]

@patstarz i got so excited when i saw this! and now not so much. but y'know what you never know how it sounded live at the show. may have sounded real good. thicker.i dunno. ok yeeeah this is not good..... agreed. i don't enjoy tool doin the covers at all.

[wishweweredead]

@fortune42100 it sounded great live

[fortune42100]

@wishweweredead ah i knew it... for some reason some Tool live recordings come out wrong (in contrast because of their tuning maybe I sometimes think...) I am gunna wear ma Tool hoodie today. I'd pair it with a Ted trucker hat if I had one too ha!

[wishweweredead]

@fortune42100 uhhh ok thanx 4 the update cuz i meant 2 ask u what r u wearing 2day?! i dont care wtf u wear unless ur goin naked, then i might actually give a shit :) unless ur ugly :)

[retandom]

dont really care for it. but then again the original anything is better than a cover. they just put there own spin on it.

[MadShepard]

rare blue oyster cult cover you mean :/

[gratefulDead619]

wow suzuki15 u should post a cover song of 035. i hope u are joking cuz u sound dumb as fuck if serious

[razer22222]

@suzuki15 a few songs are diff tuning, like parabola and prison sex

[suzuki15]

TAB FOR EVERY TOOL SONG.... DROP D... 0---3----5

[MrNintenjoe]

@suzuki15 LAWL YOU'RE FUNNY. I don't even like Tool that much but I at least know how to play some of their songs.

Don't be an ass and learn your facts.

[halfpickle]

Hey, it's a rare Tool track on YouTube that's ACTUALLY a rare Tool track!

[horrormonger]

TOOL can play Ted Nugent.

Can Ted Nugent play TOOL?

[Marty2475]

@horrormonger probably, but why would we want him to. Tool plays Tool the best

[MasterJediKyleKatarn]

@horrormonger Would Ted Nugent want to play Tool? NO. : )

[SterlingGould]

@horrormonger

Music gets better with time

BUT>>>>>

come on..... Tool is great.

This sux

Ted isnt happy about this cover

[K4Y14HHH]

@horrormonger Lolol I highly doubt it for some reason.

[bdoginit01]

@horrormonger Actually the stuff Ted plays on guitar is far more challenging than anything tool has done, not sticking up for either just stating the facts

[bdoginit01]

@horrormonger And second of all Tool don't even play it the way it is written

[2112mbell]

@horrormonger Correction TOOL CAN'T play Ted Nugent. And i bet Ted can play tool. I can do a better ted nugent on my 60 dollar digitech multi effects with headphones.

[2112mbell]

@2112mbell rofl 90% of stranghold is about the solo and tool didnt even attempt it.

[annoythefish]

@2112mbell what, the solo in stranglehold isn't even complicated, it's nice and simple and a pleasure to the ears.

[horrormonger]

@2112mbell Escuse me sir, but you might want to tuck your mullet back under your trucker cap, it's peaking out a 'lil.

[skuffard]

i like the way the mixxes are bled.

[a866903]

Sure, the guitar isn't the same as the Motor City Madman, but it's a fun cover. I love their cover of No Quarter too... paying respects to those that went before them..

[redsoxguy18]

fuck tool. the ted nugent one is WAY better

[Center420Snare]

@redsoxguy18 FUCK YOU! Tool kills ted nugent

[redsoxguy18]

@Center420Snare need to stay in school there lil boy.

[Center420Snare]

@redsoxguy18 lol go listen to THE TED NUGENT you queer you dont like tool cause you cant relax

[6693BellRinger]

I like this Toolified version.

[TheBooluvsu]

we'll if they were going to redo it that's how it would sound. That's all I can say.

[snjmom]

Excellent!

[musicmuse0700]

WOW! this is great!

[dhurda471]

This isn't Tool's style of music.. its just not them. Its not something i can swing on the spiral with.

[dubmcd1979]

Love Tool but this is the worst cover I have ever heard, It's Uncle Ted or nothing

[straightedger9]

Horrific...An insult to Mr.Nugent!!

[ALBeau1986]

I expect better from one of the greatest bands ever... as someone else said... if this were an animal... the Nuge would slaughter it by spitting on it... he wouldn't even need a bow or a knife... this is kinda rank, and a sad cover. I am... Sadly... Infinitely disappointed....

[Prymer55]

@ALBeau1986 dude shut up. its a fuckin tribute. they didnt put this on an album to try to make money and they didnt advertise it to sell tickets. they knew that there would be nugent fans in the audiece, probably cuz theyre fans themselves. covers are very rarely, if ever, as good as the original. i guess they should kill themselves for trying to put their take on it instead of performing another boring lame ass cover.

[ALBeau1986]

@Prymer55 yeah well they sorely dissapointed a large majority of BOTH TOOL AND NUGE fans. So why don't you shut up. I never said a damn thing about money or advertising. I just said this is disappointing. Boob.

[Prymer55]

@ALBeau1986 yea well... the fuck can you do? cant win em all. boob

[ALBeau1986]

@Prymer55 Wow you mean we agree on something?!! WOW... HEY LOOK! We even make a pair... now the question is what size boobs are we? Considering you replied to this I'd put you in the c-cup range.

[Prymer55]

@ALBeau1986 yea well i have a concave chest. doctors say its hormonal so i like to fill the gaps with play doh. i like to give myself purple pointed orangutan boobs. sometimes they dry up and crack but i just spit on em till they get mushy again. mom always said i was creative!

[davidholmes282]

Thanks this is a fuckin cool song

[myoung105]

@Sperlin I'm not blow away by this version either but what the hell, they probably had fun playing it. Have you heard them do Led Zeppelin's "No Quarter"? I though that was great, maybe because it's a little bit more Tool's style.

[mowgli2071]

Oh, and I'm probably the umpteen-hundredth person to say this, but, Schism-hold.

[mowgli2071]

Please tell me this is on an album. And which one it is.

[itsthemelvinsman]

@mowgli2071 its on the album the crybaby by the melvins

[itsthemelvinsman]

shove your opinions up your ass king buzz and maynard should fuck and have kids

[NorthTxBalla]

TOOL AND KING BUZZO?????

[Shank970]

if you don't like this cover then don't listen to it simple as that

[nocturnarboreal]

@Shank970 did someone strike a nerve? "How dare thou criticize Tool!" ...it's art, it's there for transference of opinion, it's called being provocative.

[Shank970]

@nocturnarboreal lol no i didn't get angry or lash out at anyone because of their feelings or opinions. I was simply stating my point of view while being mildly provocative. I was using it for its apparent purpose which you yourself stated : transference of opinion.

[miguebetter666]

He sings in spanish a few lines in this song. Doesn´t he?

[BigKennyT666]

best band doing the best song ever



[PizmoBeach1]

If this version of Stranglehold was a wild animal, Ted Nugent would quickly slaughter it to put it out of it's misery. Sorry but I think this is just rank.

[Cobra136b]

ummm...no

[SonofMorgoth]

I love Tool, but this just sounds like a garage band jamming on a riff.

[MrCapterofsin]

we won the grammy so eyes down please. classic.

[PatVanHalen5150]

Terrible.

[moethetube]

if sound quality was better it would be even more epic then already is :O

[ledzeprocks21]

better than ted nugent

[adamthefirstone]

epic

[magicwomanm]

This is like my favorite tool cover this side of Demon Cleaner

[Bl0odVomit]

haha good intro
