When I was first turned on to Meshuggah's 'Nothing' record, I'm ashamed to say that 'Glints Collide' was one of the few songs that didn't do much for me. However, when it finally clicked, it clicked HARD, and is now one of my favourite tracks from the record.
As with my previous 'Rational Gaze' cover, this one wasn't rehearsed too much, just enough to get the whole thing memorized. There are going to be many more Meshuggah covers to come, 'Perpetual Black Second' is up next!
This is the second (after 'Rational Gaze') of my uploaded videos that I've mixed myself, so let me know what you think! As always, zero sample replacement or quantizing was done, and the whole thing is one straight take. My good friend and The Red Threat bandmate Quinn Cyrankiewicz threw down a quick mastering job on it for me to tie everything together, check out his page here: / quinncyrankiewiczmusic
Shout out to Matt Levesque for lending me his DSLR, which I used for the front camera angle.
Notes:
1:28 - Single snare rimshot leading back into the verse
1:51 - 1:55 - China stabs added to the snare hits accenting the guitar
2:10 - 2:36 - In lieu of HH foot 'chicks' (as there is a brief 3 note double bass lick at the end of each cycle), I opted to play this section with the left foot for fun.
In this video:
Pearl drums:
Reference Pure 20x18, 12x8, 16x14
Reference Brass Snare 14x6.5
Sabian cymbals:
14" HHX Legacy TOP / 14" AAX Stage BOTTOM
20" AA Raw Bell Crash
20" HHX Evolution Ride
20" HHX Legacy Ride
13" AAX X-Celerator TOP / 13" HHX Evolution BOTTOM
17" AAXtreme Chinese

That extra snare at 1:28 was instant headbang for me. Best cover of this song on KZread.

I always return to this video when i feel hyped and motivated, just love his energies on the kit
Magnificient. . Felt evert beat, frickin nailed it bro... Can't see or hear a mistake or generalisation of the original... Wowaweewa. Prefect 😎
That china part from 1:16 has always been my favorite. Great job! :)

My favourite part is the one starting at 2:08... it's very aggressive but also groovy and elegant idk how to describe it
The fucking ghost notes on this guy. Do more, man!
Это прекрасно
Snare hits like a brick to the head. Love the tones you've been getting out of your drums the past couple of videos.

Cheers man, glad you dig em! I'm learning as I go.
Seriously impeccable.
Simply perfect
Ohmygod. So fucking sick bro your kit sounds so raw and pure.
Geezzzzzz. Spot on.
Dude....so godly. It's insane.
Bravo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Love the sounds of the bass and snare--so punchy.
I like the way your set sounds in the mix. Didn't notice a single flaw in your cover. Nice job, man. :)
The syncopation of this song and the way he plays it is insane
The rolls, all the way down to the double bass paradiddle at 2:52. Mad props, fucking NAILED it.

When shown like this it totally reminds me of tap class!
this is so insanely solid, fuck yeah man
This might be one of the most fluid Meshuggah drum covers I've seen. Great job!
i've watched this video so many fucking times, and it never gets old. Fucking unreal man
To the ears, this seems like a farely easy song to drumming around until you realize the hi-hat is bopping almost all the way through :O.

Not easy at all! Starting to learn this and the polys are difficult and throw you off balance! Definitely simple sounding but very challenging!
Well done!!
Wow this sounded really good! Looks difficult but you totally nailed it
Holy shit, this is a good. Love the raw intensity and the accuracy. Also, that Legacy is STILL beat to shit and back. Fantastic vid, man!

Awwh, sheeyit. Sorry to hear that, man. Now, I'm gonna' frantically drive home to check my 20" Dream Vintage Bliss. :/ Still a killer vid, though. My newest will be released starting on my birthday next week (the 15th). So stoked.
Best meshuggah cover on KZread - outstanding drummer
So guuuuuuud
Thats was beatiuful
I honestly did not know there was that much high hat work, that in it itself is actually very impressive
that was fuckin perfect
Nice chops mate.
02:10 siempre vengo por esta parte, excelente
So awesome.
you should cover their new song "Nostrum"
Think you might be the only dude on this platform to play this right with the accented eights on the cymbal at times.
Amazing cover man! & your kit is fucking gorgeus
Very nice Brent!

Great drumming, really impressive! He should do more Meshuggah covers.
Awesome!!!!!
Solid!

Awesome cover man! I love that you did it on a four piece kit!! This video helped me out a lot learning this song.
That snare sound is unreal dude!
Fucking killed it.
Sick! You've mastered it with such poise!
Gotta love those fast cats, I really wanna get myself some but they don't have my size ANYWHERE.

Aaron Gregory I ordered mine direct a couple years ago, really dig em! I might have to pick up a couple back-up pairs for when mine eventually kick the bucket (and they inevitably discontinue the shoe again)

Yeah man, I recently got myself some driftcats instead because the only size they do for speedcats that's available are 3 haha, shame, I like the looks of the speedcats more:/
Hell of a cover man, great job! Love the intensity around the 4:00min mark. Jens has some ridiculous sections on Glints! Will we be seeing a cover of "Obsidian" (2006 version) in the near future?

Brent Rodgers For your 2nd hi-hat, is that stand made for a second hi-hat? or did you do something to keep it open. I dont have a second hi-hat and Im thinking of just using two cracked 14inch crashes. I have a stack thats taking its place at the moment.
@BrentRodgersDrums

DavieDrum98 Yeah it's made for hats, I'm using the Pearl CLH-1000! There's a spring between the cymbals that allows you to keep it open.

Brent Rodgers Ah okay, thanks for that haha. I really didnt know what that stand was. Ill probably just use my primary hats and switch off to the stack in parts of the song. Im looking forward to your next Meshuggah cover aswell!!
Awesome job dude!
some seriously good drumming man. keep it up!
Very good job! Also, your kit looks great.
some crazy kinks on the Legacy
excellent cover man
Fucktastic ..
Still waiting for your Perpetual Black Second cover.
fuckin' nailed it
Good job dude
Muito bom !!! Brasil
Man your drum tone is amazing. I would even go as far to say that I wish Thomas Haake's drum tone sounded a bit more like this. His drums are huge and a bit boxy, yours fits in a bit more with the modern djent periphery-esqe tone. Any way, you fuckin rock. I'm gonna have to spend more time learning Meshuggah tracks, it's an amazing way to improve all around as a drummer.
Dude, awesome job! What stand/attachment are you using for your x- hi-hat? I'm looking for a good one!

Thanks man! I use a Pearl CLH-1000, with a WingLoc on top.
Holy time signature. What time is this in?
Sounds great Brent - would you care to disclose your Demon settings?

Cheers dude! They're set up as longboards, with the 'heavy' + 'power' stroke and link positions, respectively. I play with spring tension a bit, but currently using about medium to medium-tight. Beater height is maybe a hair higher than normal, and beater angle is pretty much factory.
Hey Bent, nice cover! By the way I had a question... in this video you play the hihat pedal along the whole song. I can't imagine lasting even a minute putting the hihat pedal at that speed XD. Any tips for a beginner to "last" with the hihat pedal for long passages? Thanks
2:36 - 3:04 always seemed impossible for me
Hey man, being new to the djent drumming style, (I've been a drummer for quite some time), It would be really helpful if I could get some insight from you as to how exactly you go about learning songs like this. Its really difficult for me to remember every displaced note/accent, and any tips would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work man it's truly inspiring!

Hey dude! I start out by importing the songs into Logic (but you can use any DAW for this) and manually mapping out all the tempo and meter changes to a click. Then I transcribe the songs note-for-note, using Guitar Pro 5. Then, using the transcripts (along with my Logic session), I start playing along/learning the parts. I almost always start at a lower tempo than actual performance tempo, and work things up gradually. The memorization is just a natural function of pure repetition when practicing the parts.
