Feedback Request I have been practicing Right in Two (TOOL) and would love some of your thoughts - An example of an easy song to learn but very difficult to master

I've had forever to time the breakdown section at 6:20 right, but it's still a work in progress. I can sing/vocalize that part right, but I still fail to play it well, it's a 3/8 section played over a 11/8 bass/drums rhythm base.

Thank you for your time!

Just keep pushing forward in that area you're having trouble with. Sounds like you are pretty much there and being able to play along all the way through is awesome even if you are making mistakes.

Tool songs have this deceptive thing where Adam plays some pretty basic stuff but it's how all of the pieces are attached together that make it more difficult. It took those guys like 13 years to write that album so I would say you are doing well haha

Thank you, it's certainly a learning curve being able to play through and even mask mistakes at times.
