Impulse - An Endless Sporadic - Drum Cover (w/ transcription)

This song was an instant classic for me the first time I heard it on GH3. It reminds me of Mike Keneally's stuff. It's really out there. Very difficult song to play!

I had a blast transcribing it and practicing it and (attempting to) performing it. Some parts I try to play what Andy (AES's drummer) plays, others I don't even attempt because they're too hard, so I just do my own thing. I'm just happy to be able to get through it! It's a natural high to play through the crazy time signature changes.

I show the transcription at the end of the vid with commentary. Also, I put a scan of it here: http://egyokeo.com/transcriptions

Props to Andy and Zach of AES. I'm a big fan. You guys are insane!

Everybody, AES is coming out with a new album next month (Nov. '09) so keep an eye on their...

And when the album is released, support these brilliant musicians and buy it! I definitely will and I'm sure we won't be disappointed.

@jd191089 No, it isn't

[chaz9123]

@LowOnHigh that is the correct way to spell it counsidering americans took our language and took out some letters to make it easy to spell because all they have done is breed a country of inbred illiterates who learn the backward way of spelling english. WE MADE THE LANGUAGE YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO SPELL!!!

[beanriffs]

this band is like dream theater with blues riffs

[metallicarocks911]

@chaz9123 not to be rude, but i thought when i came to this video and looked in the comments, i was expecting comments about the song, this song has no lyrics, so i dont see any relevance about how england and americans spell different words... and just so you know, im canadian, so i do spell "neighbor" with a "u" in it lol

[GPierozan]

You make me buy a drum!
