  • I just cant get the part at 5:24 Do you recommend anything, I've tried playing it slowly but that doesn't work:/ haha. Any tips? Thanks!

  • @bobbyddrums try to practice those parts in "slices" - first just the hands, then one hand and the feet, then the other hand and the feet, then start to switch between these combinations. At some point the mind will get what you want to achieve. That always works for me.

  • This is sick, I still have trouble learning this! Get some more videos up :D I subscribed to see some more lol

  • I like how the camera shakes to add to the epic feel of the piece.

  • i like how you actually follow the dynamics unlike alot of people who do drum covers

  • You sir, have earned yourself a like.

  • Absolutely amazing man. I'm impressed.

  • Your toms sound like sex in the jungle

  • 5:34...

    

  • look up in the search bar in youtube "danny carey - triad 1" his best piece...

  • Yeah I agree with you man, triad live is def better than The album version, keep up the good work, I enjoyed your cover.

  • This is the best cover of this song I ever saw! Good job man! Just a question though...have you tried playing the into using a Swiss triplet the way DC doing in the live" Triad 1" video? Worth checking out!

  • @ironDsteele Thanks! I love the live version of triad (more than the album version actually), but I still have a hard time playing swiss triplets and getting them to flow nicely. Need to practice those a bit more.

  • ... i envy you.

  • wow really impressive not easy at all

  • Awesome cover man

  • just...amazing...

  • I love how you're listening to The Holy Gift version xD Fantastic! Only thing is though that you need to tune those toms -- it's a big deal to Carey, and it makes a big deal in this song.

  • @GodofReapers how did u figure the holy gift thing out? in the original track order on lateralus triad comes right after reflection ... it kinda blends in ...

  • I love how you're listening to The Holy Gift version xD Fantastic!

  • This is the greatest artistic masterpiece by a band ever and thanks for doing a cover of this.

  • This is the definition of awesomness!

    Great cover!

    No one dares to cover this song, and you did it great, i'm stuuned.

  • you're beast mate....really beast...congratz

  • apparently you're the only "triad" drum cover on youtube..that'll change soon :) great job by the way..starting at 5:23 with that quick triplet..hopefully i can hit like you did

  • never heard this band before, stumbled upon one of your videos,

    just watched all of them, and your an outstanding drummer !

  • @MrCoreeey You should check out some of their other stuff. It's really great music.

  • Hey man great cover. Just some friendly advice... I see that your pinky comes out when you play with your left hand. Having the pinky out in the long run can inflame your forearm and cause carpel tunnel.

    Keep it goin.

  • @Zildjian232 oh, thanks for the advice, I'll pay attention to it!

  • You rock mister!

  • Круто!

  • awesome cover! good job,and dude,do you have just the drum recording ,i mean without the song being played in the background?i really need it

  • You are my HERO

  • Incredible drum experience like a Tool ninja tackling and crippling your very life force...ummm the Tool army beanie should be treated with a light torching. I like this song but the hidden must stay hidden and the arcade CLOSED.

  • That was chilling. You did such an amazing job. I'm truly speechless, thank you.

  • wow ur amazing!! ud need like and extra brain to do most of this stuff and u know in the recording of it theres two drum tracks

  • Hells Yeah

  • Absolutely amazing.

  • you just slapped everyone in the mouth with your dick

  • How do you tune your toms man?, love their sound

  • @ricardoieci that's a little at random, how I do it. I've no "definite" tuning I use for every song. I try to match the tunings to the song and sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't, because carey has different tom sizes and I can't just tune my smallest tom (12") to his 8" tom. Here it works okay, in the lateralus vid the toms are awful in my opinon. Don't know what I was thinking there.

  • @thekillingjoke How long have you been playing? You have very good fundamentals and i love what you do at 5:27 with whatever it is you would call that kind of polyrhythm . 4:51 is great as well.

    You also covered a drum song no man dares to go near.

    For that i'd say you are a very well rounded drummer

  • @Mrhashslinginslasher thanks! I've been playing from ~1992 until 2001 and again since 2007

  • ... bravo .. suona bene

  • have you tried the live version now that some new footage is out, that is an awesome beat he plays in the opening which i'm sure you can pull off

  • That was a grat performance ,a very nice and effortless coordination in that interlude 5:23 between the bass drums, the ride rhythm, and the accent on the ride bell...keep it up my friend

  • fucken sick

  • 5 stars!

  • Me levanto y te empiezo a aplaudir loco

    Sos un genio

  • Pretty sick talent. Seems like the kind of mind that could solve advanced calculus, etc.

  • I love this performance

  • super!!!

  • Very good.

  • Nice job man! 5:30-6:00 was incredible.

  • well done homeboy

  • bravo, this is too much

  • thanks for sharing, over the years triad has become one of my all time fav tool songs. 20 stars!

  • fucken aay great cover you owned that one, i wanna play that one :) ,trip out on that one pretty fucken hard

  • From 5:30 to 5:57...............all I can say is, "HOW?!?!?!"

    That's what, a triple polyrhythm or something?!?!?

    Job well done to you, sir! You are one of the few drummers I've ever seen who can correctly play that part (I know it's hard for me). You have great four-way independent coordination.

    ***** / *****

  • Yeah, it could be seen as a polyrhythm with three layers.

    Each bar is in 12/8 (starting with snare and ride at the same time):

    a) 6 times the ride pattern (last of the three 1/8 hits on the bell) with 1/8 space in between

    b) 8 times the snare (2/8 space in between)

    c) 4 times the double kick drum pattern (after the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th snare hit).

    Polyrhythms are actually the most fun for me to learn and play... feels like one's brain is going for a swim.

    Thanks for the comment!

  • This is trully epic man!

    The camera shake is very awesome too :P. It fits perfectly. eheh

  • Great job man!!! I really enjoy this, you seem to be as big of a TOOL fan as I am! Please check out my band, we've got some live videos up!

    Great job, PS. Your snare matches danny's perfectly in this video!

  • That part starting at 5:20 sounds and looks crazy hard, nice work

    subscribed

  • This video is amazing in just every way. Not only are you covering one of my all time favorite songs ever on drums, but your cover is just spot on. Everything sounds so perfect. And your kit sounds so perfect....its a breath of fresh air from every other video on Youtube of people covering Danny Carey and their kit sounds like crap. One thing though, I wish you would mic your kick drum a little better cause I know you can play it, but I want to hear it man! Great playing, keep covering Tool!

  • 10 stars!

  • This is pure brilliance thanks for posting this! This song looks like a challenge and alot of fun to play, keep up the good work

  • I never thought I'd see the day were YouTube musicians would be successfully replicating DC. Nice work man.

  • awesome at 5:34, that's not human, haha nice work keeping in time ! Great vid, never imagined triad could be actually covered and sound like it is. You make it look so easy... congrats

  • wow I haven't seen anybody pull Triad off like that other than the man Danny himself. Awesome you make it looks so easy!

  • you are a very skilled man...but those "fast fills" like there 6:01 are kinda sloppy...dont get me wrong...i admire your skill though

  • i love watching this every time it sounds different.

  • Wow i love your tom sounds on this recording. They seem to sound different on your new vids

  • I guess that's just luck here... I've never spent more than 15-20 minutes on the mixes for these videos (that will change for upcoming recordings, haha), there might be less overhead here than on the other ones.

  • This is one of the most difficult drums in my opinion, and you pulled it off nicely. Great job!

  • man i like yur technique, it must be really hard to keep the left hand going with that rythym tho

  • you are great !!

  • This song sounded easy before I watched this vid

  • A sign of the future swim ahead of us!?!?!?

  • Wtf is the world comin to?!?!?!? First I hear Russell Crowe's starring in a Bill Hicks biography film (kinda like all the rapper ones -notorious, G.R.O.D.T.-) and now he's tryin to shred like DC!!!! :P

  • fuuuck this song sounds totally different [monstrous] if you pay attention to song according to the drums.

  • Comment removed

  • that shit is sick

  • awesome

  • awesome snare sound, sounds just like the recording, whats the snare/head/tuning etc.?

  • The snare is a mapex black panther, 14" x 6,5", snare wires down. Head should be a remo powerstroke and the tuning... I didn't go for a specific pitch, just a quick `n dirty tuning for a fitting sequence of tones from the toms up to the snare, so there's a little bit of luck involved here.

  • hey buddy what do u think of the black panther, im rockin a pearl joeyjordison sig right now but i was planning on getting a black panther.. untill i saw the new sonor DC sig thats out now im not sure what i wanna get, what do u think about all three?

  • I'd say it depends on the sound you're after. The black panther snare I got for about 10 years now, it's well manufactured and all, didn't have any problems with it, but the sound is a little shallow (maybe because of the 6,5" depth?). So it sounds rather clear and tight, but doesn't pack a deep punch. If i were to choose a new drumset right now, i'd probably go for sonor, too. But in any case I'd check them out in a store for a few minutes. Haven't any experience with pearl drums, though.

  • yea im from canada and sonor is pretty hard to find around here u think i have to special order it from your country and thast pretty pricey, sorry for all the questions man but u pretty much play the same way as me and the same kind of music lol. how do u like your paistes(another very expensive piece of equipment along with your mandalas) im a whore for cymbals i have the same cymbalsetup as you but my cymblas consist of sabian ziljian and a meinl china which i love.want to buy some paiste tho

  • hey, i had to import the mandalas from the u.s. too, haha. That was a pain the ass with customs and all. There's still no european distribution for them.

    With the paiste alphas i'm right happy and will stick to them for now. They sound rather bright and aggressive and aren't too pricey (at least compared to the 2002 and signature series). But i still use old cracked cymbals when rehearsing and the "good ones" only for performances and recordings, so I don't have to buy new crashes every year.

  • yes those 2002's are very very nice i want the sounds egde hats soo bad, i really shoul dstart doing what u do as far as keeping my cracked cymbals out for jams and the good ones for gigs it would deffinalty save me alot of money. u were sayin earlier about the mandala pads and for me to make sure i have a cut of for somethign it need what was that again and were can i look to make sure my fp10 has the right stuff for it?

  • Yeah I ment the ASIO issue. You have the mandala output on certain ASIO channels (say 11/12), and your recording software running on the same machine needs to record those channels, but must not use these channels for playback on the same time, because that would be a double allocation of channels and your signal will completely trainwreck. That's why i've switched from using adobe audition to samplitude, audition cannot disable single ASIO channels and i couldn't record the mandalas with it.

  • But that's not an issue of the audio interface, but just the software. Don't now how cubase (which is included with the fp10) can handle this.

    As for the FP10, I had it in mind before buying an interface, but i chose the RME hardware instead because it has some more features. Maybe you could get the manual of the FP10 online and really check out your planned setup step by step, if it works with the FP10 before making such an investment?

  • Here in germany we can also return items like an interface to the store within 30 days, if it doesn't work out like you've planned it, maybe theres a store near you where you've got such an arrangement too?

  • It is the best version I have seen on youtube.

  • Listen to where the tom comes in at the start of the track again, youll notice he leaves out a hit.

    For evereyone to understand...

    As the tom comes in... dada dada dada dada dada dada 'da' dada then repeat.

  • Ha, you got me on the tom thing, but many of the details in the first half of the track I left out/improvised by choice, 'cause I'm pretty sure they are either electronic or somehow processed and I wasn't interested in replicating that.

    I was more interested in the second half, which should be quite complete. There are some minor hits which I think are delay effects, so I let them away too.

    And how DC plays this track live is a different thing anyway, especially in the first half.

  • Nice try but you have got a lot of things wrong and you are also missing a lot of things. Please don't take this as a nasty jab, I assure you its not.

    I have spent along time listening to this track, to every detail and also watching him play it live.

    There is a lot more to what he is doing than you realize.

  • Credit man, one of the only covers that uses anything close to the correct sticking. Great job with the polyrhythm too. I can get most of Danny's poly's given time but this one does my head in.

    Good work.

  • how the funk do you do that? :O

  • Im gonna go with a simple comment, Good Fucking Job man.

  • Congratulations, little do they know it, but you just made every drummer on youtube suck your dick...

    the tuning, the poly-rhythm, i mean dear god.

    I have yet to sit down and hack my way through this one, how long did it take man?

  • Thanks for your comment! It took me about 4 weeks, rehearsing 3 times a week for 90 minutes.

    You can get a grip on the polyrhythm part if you have an "anchor" you can relate to. That's not necessarily the first beat of each bar. My anchor is the moment where the snare and the ride bell are hit simultaneously, which happens every sixth eigth-note. I've divided the pattern into 12/8-bars (like the rest of the song) and my anchor moments are on beat 4 and 10. But that's just one way to do it.

  • Shit yeah, i watched how you played it and saw your anchor, that is gonna help a ton.

    Thank you very much.

    Ps. I've read a lot on the Mandala pad, but never used one. How would you say its functionality is? and how well does it play?

  • You're welcome!

    I think the mandalas are great. At first it felt a little odd playing-wise, as I've never used electronic drums before and their "bouncing behaviour" is a little different from an acoustic drum, but now it feels totally natural. If you want to do more than toying around with them, I'd strongly recommend two things though:

  • - a firewire or PCI audio interface with a good ASIO hardware driver. I don't know about Macs, but with a Windows based system without ASIO I get latency/response times of about 35 milliseconds between the hit and the sound, which is far too much. This is just a Windows audio kernel issue and not the Mandala's fault. There is a free ASIO driver named ASIO4ALL which reduces the latency to 14ms on my machine, but it's still not the real deal.

  • If you want to do at least semi-professional recordings or live performances, you'll need an audio interface. I use the RME Fireface 800 and get 7ms with it, that's fine.

  • - a decent software to play the sounds. The included virtual brain is nice for toying around, but has quite a CPU load and feels a little unstable. I simply couldn't have made these videos with it, recording 2 Mandala tracks and 9 acoustic drum tracks simultaneously. I use Battery 3 instead. But you still need the VB to set the MIDI channels and notes to the Mandala's hitting zones.

  • i have an idea. drop everything you're doing in life and come teach me to play. thanks.

  • You would't want that, I'm the worst teacher on Earth.

  • FUCK YEAH!!! one of the greatest drum songs...GREAT JOB MAN!

  • Wow!!! That was simply amazing.

  • Yeah dude, you fkn rock; how rare it is...a drummer that can tune his drums proper.

  • i love the sound of well tuned drums, great fucking job man!

  • yeah the tunings are spot on, i want in!

  • very impressive, and you make it look so easy...

    Excellent !

  • damn that was insane very hard song to cover

  • Wicked...excellent job

  • Very very good! I'm trying the song right now but it's so difficult. You need a big concentration to play the middle part on the right. You did a great job!!
