@Bearthoughts Just so everybody's clear: There are no triplets being played in this entire video. Grouping 16th notes, 8th notes, etc, in 3s is quite different than triplets. More specifically, in this video, the notes aren't really grouped in 3s anyway. There is a rest and then 3 notes | x B B ...
@tamakit123 It is definitely tough to understand and "feel" odd time signatures at first.
In regards to why your metronome sounds a lot faster in 5/4 than it does in 4/4, my only guess is that you are actually setting the metronome to 5/8, not 5/4.
Jason Rullo is an amazing drummer. Try listening to the album "V" from front to back, and tell me that the drumming isn't top-notch. That album contains some of the best prog-metal drumming ever recorded; full of feel, dynamics, creativity, and complexity.
@ihatecivicssomuch I think you missed the point. The fact that your car is worth "significantly more" contradicts your whole argument. He was trying to say that an STI, for what it is priced at, is an incredible value. You just failed.
Love this song.
