  • if you think john stainer isn't technically amazing then you obviously don't play drums.

  • To fans of Battles, I recommend checking out Giraffes, Giraffes, Shelac, Squarepusher, Aphex Twin, Venetian Snares and other 'IDM,' Meshuggah and other 'dgent' bands, numerous Mike Patton projects (ie, Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, Tomahawk...Ipecac Rec...), Bjork, Tool, Radiohead...If you like classical Indian music and tabla music: Zakir Hussein, Ali Akbar Kahn, Aloke Dutta...TO HATERS AND NAY-SAYERS: MUSIC HAS ALWAYS BEEN CHANGING AND SAVING THE WORLD...spread the word, lol.

  • @SuperDefaultname I'm glad I already listen to 90% of them.. I've done my school work, apparently! hahaha

  • NIce one.

    

  • @manicamadeus Word.

  • Not Ian's usual guitar i spy.

  • Very nice. Just wish the video and audio were synced. 

  • It seems to me that too much music that strays into a more technical direction is labeled as "math-*insert genre*" by too many people. Rock is especially victimized by this trend, as it is merely a trend. Classical music from all over the world was/is ridiculously mathematically complex, namely classical Indian. We've had to degress in order to be 'progressive.'

  • Tomahawk and Helmet are his other projects, check it. technically amazing, yes and listen to Battles if you still aren't convinced

  • @TheSatyroi About gospel chops, I agree with you there... but this drummer, for a lot of people, make this band. He has carved a niche for himself in this kind of music and within the culture that listens to it.. He has his own sound and distinct style of playing that make it special for the genre. Personally, I don't know if battles is the extent of his drumming ability, but I doubt it, therefore I couldn't make a judgement concerning his technical ability.

  • Mercy me! Wish I 'd been there...Thanks whoever posts these delicious freakouts!
