I really love this band so I just had to cover this song. I have also included a drum lesson at the end of this video at about 7:00 minutes that features a beat breakdown of the two main double kick patterns along with exercises that helped me play this song. I wanted to keep the sound of my drums as raw and ‘true’ as i could. I didn’t want to trigger anything or sound replace the parts. Thanks for watching and enjoying Meshuggah and Tomas Haake as much as I do!

Dude! u r amazing..
i wish i could do this
@wrightdrums i noticed that in a drumcam vid of tomas, its very neat how the left foot keeps straight singles. tomas makes it very obvious in his footwork, well done to you!
pure awesomeness!!!
My god…. thats insane. Well done mate.
@wrightdrums – By the way, I just looked at what equipment you’re using, and strongly recommend you check out Charles Fisher’s ‘Off-Set’ double bass pedal. (found here: 1) [web.mac][.com]/kleidy1/Off-Set/Double_Bass_Drum_Pedal.html

(If you like it ask about the “rigid (direct) drive” mod he just made. Maybe tell him Ben W. sent you?)
@wrightdrums – I understand what the feet are doing; I’ve worked out a physics-like formula for a more exact approach to relative stick/beater heights, and have been hypothesizing about a drum set application to ‘finger sequencing’ (a concept used on piano for playing scales), which tells me pretty much exactly what each finger/hand/foot should be doing. My percussion instructor (a band director and active musician) verified the equation, but I have yet to show him sequencing.
You’re unbelievable, my fav cover-drummer on youtube.
@ChronoGXay The left foot is playing an entirely different pattern to the right foot. Let me explain. The right foot is playing a shuffle phrase or a repeated group of 2 (reason for all the movement). The left foot on its own is playing almost straight singles to make up the 4 note opening phrase in the song (reason for less movement or “rigid” in your words)
Maybe it’s just me or the camera angle on your feet (or both), but it seems to me like your left foot/leg is a little bit rigid…
everytime I hear that bass drum lick, it invokes every emotion.
@JordDBdrummer about 12 years mate
@JordDBdrummer hit me up on bandhappy – troy_wright
how long have you been drumming!???
dude you are fuckin amazing i want to be like you. i wish i knew odd time signatures better though…. damn
Its so tight its scary…
You should do a Pendulum medley as joke (because so many of the beats are basically the same). I’m not dissing Pendulum (I think a lot of their music is fucking great).
every metal drummer should pay homage to Bleed’s double kick..
great man..very well done,and with attitude also, when i see drummer like you ,makes me wana drop my sticks lol…!!!!
AWESOME!! NICE WORK
magical
easy
fucking brilliant video man! thanks for spending the time to do this!! =D
5 people are bleeding and jealous right now
