Welcome, fellow audiophiles, drumming enthusiasts, TOOL fans, and lovers of all things progressive! Today, we've scored an exclusive backstage peek into the rhythmic labyrinth that is Danny Carey's drum kingdom for TOOL's Fear Inoculum Tour. Surrounded by instruments, Danny is joined by Modern Drummer CEO David Frangioni as they peel back the layers of Carey's one-of-a-kind drum arsenal. Not subscribed to our digital magazine? Subscribe: World renowned drum tech, Joe Slaby, graciously provided a detailed gear list of the components that Danny used for this particular show (gear list below). Joe emphasized that the setup is constantly changing and evolving, so the list is just a snapshot of the decisions for that day. Danny's Gear in this Video: The drums are Sonor SQ2 with Vintage series lugs. Sonor made Danny two versions of this touring kit, one beech, one maple. These toms are beech, these kicks are maple. The kicks and toms are wrapped with a design by Alex Grey. The shells on the smallest tom are thickest and they get thinner as the drum diameter increases. Drums: The main snares are two Sonor HLD590’s (one with 10 lugs, one with 12 lugs) both 14” x 8” bronze drums. Also, he has a new Dunnett 14” x 8” purple bronze snare and a Sonor 14“ x 8“ beech snare that has a wrap that matches the toms. From left to right, the drums are: 8“ x 8“ and 10“ x 10“ SQ2 rack toms, 14“ rototom with custom mount by Brian Totten (this drum was formerly owned by Terry Bozzio!), 16“ x 14“ and 18“ x 16“ SQ2 floor toms with legs, 16“ x 22“ SQ2 Gong Drum (with Danny Carey's portrait by Alex Grey), 18“ x 22“ and 20“ x 24“ SQ2 Bass Drums.
