  • I know Captain Keyboards (personal pet name) is very, very, very into his groove, but I can't help but smile at his weird semi-dancing. This song is incredible.

  • Stanier - He is the computer metronome. So Solid

  • @MotorStorm66 wrong. Read his interview in Rhythm magazine (best drum magazine in the world, btw), he said EXACTLY that.

  • @sparkles67 It's nothing to do with that, he said in an interview his cymbal is so high because him and thhe other Battles members thought it looked funny.

  • John Stanier is a robot...in the best sense of the word.

  • John Stanier smashes Questlove (Roots drummer) anyday but they are both incredible drummers

  • @slartibartfast8787 i think john,(stanier) originally didnt want ANY cymbals in his playing, thats why he put the cymbal so high, so he wasnt tempted to hit it very often. they are VERY original!

  • @slartibartfast8787 Even his HiHat is really high up. It is almost at eye level with him.

  • The Roots and Battles in the same building. Wow.

  • That crash cymbal is SO FRIGGIN high up 0__e

  • I watched this when it came on. First time I ever heard the band. Even after the song was over, I heard the main little riff while the Roots were playing the exit music.

  • I go to the same high school that Ian Williams did. I feel so bad ass.
