After the Born of Osiris Show at The Highgrounds in Metairie, LA I walked in after everybody was gone and caught Tosin Abasi Swinging from the rafters on the ceiling like it was a jungle gym. I thought it would be great to host a race between him and my buddy Quest Cox swinging from these rafters from one end of the venue to the other. Tosin Abasi won of course because he is black :) and becuase he is the guitarist for one of the greatest metal bands ever.

  • That's awesome dude. I didn't get a copy of his CD until after I saw him and shot this video. lol. So I really wish I would have known about Animals as Leaders beforehand.

  • I'm not sure now though now that I'm listening to it seriously. lol. Could be.

  • I don't think so. It could have been playing in the background though.

  • Tosin is so well camoflaged with those black walls.

  • He's too black for me to see him. All I saw was teeth and eyes. Fucking amazing guitarist though.

  • @BombsForChristmas ive heard some meshuggah and theyre not really popping djent to me, the brighter crisper ninth chords that he uses are much different than the 1 song 1 polyrythm that meshuggah does, not a big fan of them

  • look at that porch monkey go! lmfao that terrible im just kiddin hes a sick dude tho and hes a legendary guitarist

  • lol meshuggah in the background, fuck yeah....

  • He's one of my favorite guitarists :D

  • Meshuggah - Bleed :)

  • LOOL

  • No way, he burns (at least some kind of herb)?

  • MESHUGGAH!!!!!

    Awesome!!! Even though there was a saying about Tosin "Just because you have an eight-string and play in a metal band doesn't mean you have to sound like Meshuggah." Refering ofcourse to the awesomeness and power that Tosin holds over this instrument.
