Alex Rudinger - Whitechapel - "Without Us"

Музыка

Despite the fact that I'm no longer with Whitechapel, I'm still immensely proud of 'KIN'. So awhile back I recorded a few more play-throughs for some of my favorite tunes from the album - while the material was still relatively 'fresh' for me. Here's the 4th (of 4) - "WITHOUT US".
Now, I thought this would be my very last 'Chapel-Playthru ever. But it turns out, I actually have some more that I totally forgot about (Lol!). So I will likely upload those in the not-so-distant future, too. This is however the last 'KIN' play-through; the others that I have are from older albums! Couple fairly tech one's... not quite sure how I totally forgot about them, but it was a pleasant surprise when I realized I'd actually already tracked / made videos for em'. Lol!
At ANY rate: "Without Us" is another one of my favorites from 'KIN'. Similar to "Anticure", there isn't too much craziness going on drum-wise - it's just a super heavy, sick, rockin' song (in my opinion, Lol!). If you've yet to check out 'KIN' in its entirety, please do so (available on all platforms!).

    @@TylerHNothing Specific musical appreciation is subjective. Your preferences are moot in regards to the best album he has ever heard. I could name a minimum of 30 albums which are, unequivocally, instrumentally superior to the 2 you mentioned, but more importantly, they’re much heavier/faster because that’s what I’m into. Neither of us can claim that our respective tastes are more musically significant than the other. I do like PINK FLOYD though.

    Overview Lyrics Come to the surface, my son You're not breathing so well I couldn't stand to lose you another time But this is not real, we're not here Don't you understand that we've already lost one another? Please accept reality So I can finally be free Where will we be in the years to come? I know somewhere inside you is me Crying out for help, but I'm right here with you Begging you to see the hell we've created I know it's hard to accept the truth But it's time to let this all go Let this all go Let this all go I'm holding onto your neck It's taking everything for me to not watch you Fade out into the sound of nothing But this is not real, we're not here Don't you understand that we both have to move on together? Without you, there's no me There's no us, there's no family It's so dark, it's so quiet now Is there anyone out there? Anyone? I'm alone again, just what I'm used to I'm here, bow to the ancient God The portal is shut, locked, no way out This is home This isn't home, it's hell with a lovely face The mask just hides the truth that controls our fate Take a look around, my friend That part of our life is dead So tell me where will we be in the years to come? I know somewhere inside you is me Crying out for help, but I'm right here with you Begging you to see the hell we've created I know it's hard to accept the truth But it's time to let this all go Let this all go

    I always thought Alex's intricacies and fills were in a way too "fancy" for Whitechapel - like, listening to the music as a whole, I'd never notice the subtleties and nuances he brings to the kit, but watching him is another story. I'll miss him in the band, but I'm excited to see what's next. I'd be shocked if he doesn't end up in a big name band very soon.
