I'm sure that Gilbert, Satriani, and Vai would salute him as one the greatest in today's modern vanguard. I've also heard Tosin pay tribute to Gilbert as a great inspiration when he was a young player learning his craft. He's definitely got GOAT chops, and his innovation is without question. (The fact that he paired himself with phenomenal bandmates shows he cares more about music than top dog status. Same for Javier and Matt.)

I hope for a live Dvd from these guys in the future, I'll definitely pick it up.

I came here for the guitar and left with a new favorite drummer.

Can't believe I get to see them live at Heavy Montreal 2016, that was one of the 2 main reasons I decided to go again this year. The second being of course... Despised Icon!

Thanks Toontrack for providing me with this amazing concert since to date, this is the only opportunity I'll have to watch then live as they wont do a live show in Portugal

Would you expect any less from tosins band lmao. You should see the accuracy of his snare hits. The mark left over from hitting the drum so many times. It's literally the size of a dime with no misses. Dead center. No drummer but him does that lol. And there are a few drummers as good but not as accurate

This time we can hear the drums as they are. Love this performance. Very pure.

Awesome drummer and true talent. Hear Matt's story in this video. We had the pleasure of streaming Animals As Leaders last November during Metal Month. Check the full show here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/po6qk9WfYcy1hZs.html

Incredible musicians and genuinely humble human beings

Every so often I come back to watch this in its entirety. I think this may possibly be the best set aal has ever played. The sound and the whole energy is just 100% dialed. Love this band with a passion

Garstka is seriously next level. It's insane how effortless he makes it look.

Simply, SICK!! Love it.

I love that you can literally hear all his influences pretty much in every song.

All I can think is I don't know how they can possibly remember every sequence of notes/riffs for these songs.. like they must never forget where their car keys are...

I was at this show. Obviously the video can't do justice for how it sounded in real life but holy shit, this was the tightest they've ever sounded. I saw them a couple times after and due to no fault of their own (generally worse venues/acoustics) none of those held a candle to this one. I have seen them seven times in total from 2011-2017 but this night will always stick out to me. One of my highschool buddies was off his rocker on either mdma or some other meth like euphorant and was completely hyped throughout the entire set, really balancing out the whole snobby prog rock vibe coming from the majority of the audience. I'm personally not even much of a metal buff by any stretch of the imagination but I really wish i could re live this particular show. Hell, I wish I could just go back to being 19 again. Weird how so much can change in less than 5 years

How come Javier gets virtually no camera time, even when he's taking leads?

Saw these guys and Chon a couple months ago and I'm going to see them again this month great band great show :D

This is making me miss live shows :/

Been learning a year now, I think I've got the first 5 seconds down, cheers Tosin....

Going to see them this summer at Houston TX, looking foward to it!

say no more, this band is awesome.

Pure awesomeness, I hope and think they deserve more recognition for their amazing talent. I saw them at the crazy donkey on long island when it was still there and the show was flawless,,also hope to see them again in new jersey this august. Tosin and matt are some of the best on the f'in planet!

I watched a video displaying tosin's rig run down, and if I recall correctly, he said that he usually goes standard tuning with the 7th being B, and the 8th dropped to E as a bass effect since that would be an octave down from the 6th string. I'm not too sure how many octaves lower a bass guitar's E string is in comparison to the low E on a 6-string guitar. Google to the rescue?

They play with a click that has a synth bass and pad. Also heir eight string guitars help complement the lower range.

these guys are fun as hell. a perfect mixture of "djent" as some call it, and progressive metal. i know they're basically the same thing, but technically they are very specific subgenres.

+Daisy's Destruction The term "djent" actually began as a guitar tone; however, I suppose for the most part that it has become a sort of subgenre over the years (Somehow.) I believe the term was coined by the band Meshuggah, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
