Desperation Mixtape You're way off base here. What makes a good drummer is your opinion. In my opinion you don't need to be flailing and fast, or have to double bass the entire song. To me Danny Carey doesn't add any junk. Every beat has a purpose and he's extremely technical. His work is fun to listen to without the music in the background. Only The Rev, Ginger Baker, Bonham, and Carey stand alone.

A very close friend of mine died 7 years ago on accident. He was the one who introduced me to Tool and this was the first song he made me listen. I feel in love with the band instantly. Every 24 of March I open a beer, listen to this song and see this video. hoping that someday I can pay tribute to his memory by doing a drum cover.

I like it because as a non-drummer I find it is so confusing and unusual but also weirdly satisfying. And you nailed it. I only have a rudimentary understanding of how drums work but I bet it must have been tricky to play. Kudos, keep spiralling out!

@michmyers73

This part of the song is insanely, difficult, I agree with your words every one bit, essentially, the drums and vocals are playing five measures for every four measures played by the bass and guitar. This means that they disconnect, and then loop back around to each other, if that helps you understand at all.

For more information on this sort of Rhythm checkout polyrhythm. Also, this sort of use of polyrhythm is pretty common in Progressive bands and djent. if you really like polyrhythm stuff like tool, I would check out tesseract. Every singer that's ever been a part of tesseract is world class and the drummer is a beast. There are some scream vocals, but mainly their stuff is just highly technical with clean vocals. --- Sorry, a quick addendum to this. I forgot that this was on Lateralus. This particular song is heavily influenced by the Fibonacci sequence. In general though, tool builds heavily on polyrhythm.

It’s 6/4. 6/8 is twice as fast and is the previous time signature during the buildup. 6/8 comes back at 8:15.

One of the best drummers putting videos out to the ether via KZread. It’s an absolute joy watching you beat the crap out of your kit, man.

7:17. Never gets old. Gives me chills every time

Watching this was so inspiring, I felt like I was in a trance just watching you journey through this track, then that two handed stick catch at 7:18 was so uplifting to see you pull off - true passion. Fucking incredible.

DRUMMABOY51 lol I was just reading your argument in meytall’s video. I completely agree with the fact that John played this much better

I admire all these guys. Carry, Friese, Johnkew... the flavor they bring is just fitting and a different sugar on the gum.

7:07 must be one of my favourite bits of percussion. amazing sound!
