If I can hype this drummer's versatility for my fellow drum nerds, this guy, armed with just a single kick, snare, hihat, and bell, plays: --A djenty kick pattern that will probably be stolen by a teenage metalcore band ("earth") --A paradiddle blast beat that is so fast I thought the recording was sped up ("van") --A groovy, "jump the f*** up" part ("song") --Some of the fastest, cleanest double-stroke ghost notes known to mankind ("computers") --A swingy, Latin-tinged dance beat ("you are pregnant") --My favorite, a skank beat variation with a displaced gallop on the bell ("existence") --Some nasty fills with expert coordination between his snare hand and kick foot (throughout) Plus, he does much of this while also stomping on his hihat pedal hard enough to make the stand shake AND using his free hand to play keyboard bass parts in lockstep with the kick drum, AND ALSO throwing in some screams and horn honks. At least he has some nice, solid feces to take over on keyboards sometimes ("keyboard").

"I NEED TO SHOW THIS TO SOMEONE" *[proceeds to have nobody to show it to]*

[@bictur]

This isn't misunderstood, it's just not popular music.. lots of influence from music people don't typically listen to

[@TheNefastor]

We're here for you, fellow clowncore enjoyer.

[@zavor5786]

This is a masterpiece with actual meaning and we need more of this I mean *HONK* _squeak_

[@peacefully.violet]

Especially after experiencing reading the words on slow speed with the distorted sound, this is the most out there insane shit ive ever heard and i appreciate every note and word of it

[@chrisknepper6894]

I'm glad I live in a time where technology has progressed to a point that this is able to exist. Fuck Bitcoin, this is the future of commerce.

[@julietbustos4867]

I highly recommend this. These are the only clowns that make me smile when I’m feeling sad or fucken furious.

[@Erock503]

the phrasing and chord progression at the end of "End" sounds like something written centuries ago. Love it.

[@thomasroehrman7587]

"Tears of God" is STUNNING.

[@icelandicbanks6473]

The visuals with it are soooo good, too. They nailed that one

[@Ruija27]

It has a 1980s public TV vibe for some reason. Like it would be a transitionary sting

[@bla9437]

That horn at 2:58 was the saddest I've ever heard and my heart is dying for it

[@nickstone3558]

3:15 should cheer you right up! :]

[@doejohn5563]

what the freaking heck?!? how did I get here? and why just now? this is pure awesomeness :D

[@stephenpayne6956]

Love the melodic breaks, like 4:55 is truly exceptional

[@h3lltr00p]

I'm shocked by 4:54. Two keyboards + snare + hit-hat + bass drum? It's just nuts! The level of this guy is out of mind!!!!!!

[@sizone]

yeah but dude, during that, 5:16 is the best shot of the whole video...

[@beantown_billy2405]

On par with Neil Peart or Lars Ulrich

[@butterstuckingutter]

@@beantown_billy2405 lars is ass

[@Lord_RavnFar_Tannerwise]

You forgot the honky horn!

[@patatejambom6310]

fun fact, they are pop artist / jazz, its louis cole from knower with sam gendel.

[@hardiksharma1428]

Louis Cole and Sam Gendell from The Knower. These guys are absolute beasts on their respective (multiple) instruments

[@shinget]

that driver is thinking "why does no-one believe me when i tell them about the things i see while driving?"

[@AllfatherBlack]

To anyone who's come into this as confused as I was/still am, start at 3:55 and just try to make it all the way to the 6:00 mark. That's what sold me. These are very clearly very skilled musicians and this ironic avante garde bullshit is right up my alley. Respect

[@lejayranf5568]

No. Start from beginning 0:00 and got to the end 🤣

[@MangasColoradas941]

why would you start and end there?

[@AtanoKSi]

@@MangasColoradas941 lmao right? I listen to this album from start to finish

[@100GTAGUY]

@@MangasColoradas941 that's where the lightweights should start I reckon

[@m00nkinftw]

The incredibly tight percussion from Earth sold me. These are top tier musicians that give 0 fucks and I love it

[@verruxlunox8438]

last one is just pure suffering, i love clown core

[@neuronmind]

Clown COre should get a Grammy Award for this.

[@ineedanewguitar6666]

Their music is just so good. I never knew I needed clown core in my life until I heard it. Thank you

[@mikelippmann1879]

The profound message these interstellar travelers send is wunderbar

[@lvb1770]

The "infinite realm of incomprehensible suffering" is the perfect hold music!

[@raiowyn]

I just came across this, loved it and wanted to show friends, they are yet to respond.

[@raiowyn]

A friend I took music with in school came back with "They are so talented I could watch this for hours" and I have to agree, I keep coming back to it and instead of losing anything I keep finding new things to appreciate. It's a weird one but it's definitely a masterpiece.

[@Dr_Monitor]

I just sent this to a buddy I talk to daily. It's been 10 minutes and he hasn't responded yet. This isn't like him.

[@ToxicTerrance]

I sent it to my brother and he ate my mom

[@rjones197]

I sent this to Shia Labeouf. He responded that he went back in time to form this band with Jesus, practiced in limbo for two thousand years, and then reintegrated with the timeline to make this. I am proud to know Shia Labeouf. He knows a thing.

[@cobralyoner]

yeah same 🙄

[@trensun]

Tears of god hits a lot of different nostalgic buttons for me.

[@DMO-DMO-DMO]

This is the only thing that could ever make me unironically say the phrase "existence is amazing"

[@mega_ferret6359]

I will never get tired of listening to this saxophone metal. I honestly don't even know how to define it. It's just musical art.

[@Mufozon]

There is only one person on earth who just LOVES the rising chromatic bassline and is a killer drummer at the same time. And he is the best living musician IMO. Also the stars in the sky look very familiar.

[@ajctrading]

Mr Hankey's skill with the keyboards was unexpected.

[@neenerheaddj]

Holy shit. Thank you, KZbin algorithm. I think I just found my new favorite band.

[@Monkeyshaman]

While I'm intrigued to find out this is what's happening in every van it's just terrible that all the investigative journalists had to give their life for this to be exposed.
