This is frickin' AWESOME! To elaborate a little. I have watched it like 5 times and watched a different person, it lets me hear their part more clearly in the mix. Love this. Especially hearing Clay on the bass. I catch him a lot in the music, but he's so good that he melts into the drum and melody and it merges into one complete tone so I miss a bunch of it. I love this. Thanks so much for the video. The music and the way it is evolving into something new is so much fun to see. Some other musicians, like Meshuggah, and Tosin Abasi are breaking ground in different, but equally impressive, directions, but your sound gels for me. It's a new kind of musical integration that I am really enjoying. You guys are so unbelievable well synchedas a band, and talented as individuals, that I love to put your music on repeat. Can't wait for the next one!
