please do 43% burnt they released that track in 1999 and its just so forward thinking and just so chaotic! dillinger purposely examined music theory and all the note intervals all the time signatures EVERYTHING THAT MUSIC THEORY SAID USE IN SELDOM they just did all the time and it was pure magic listen to ion dissonance as well that is some incredible stuff very very inspired by dillinger and meshuggah

@@AndrewRooneyDrums thx man! Your channel is dido, subbed.

[@fravellist]

Chris Pennie's work on their album, 'Calculating Infinity', is outstanding. I found playing guitar really opened up my left side independence on the drums.

[@slimefudge]

Dillinger Escape Plan was one of the hardest bands for me to come to listen to due to its chaotic nature. Yet, here I am, proud to have seen them live twice and find emotional attachment to several songs a couple years later. And just like this video clearly shows, they are super intricate and it's so much to be learned from each instrument when dissected. It can seem daunting and harrowing, but wooooh the reward down the line! Andrew! Not necessary for a reaction video, but I recommend you check out this song again with the studio version or even a live performance and just hearing the whole jam with the vocals too. It's a trip!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks for that! Very intense for a first time listen!

[@toriandicapmond161]

Amen, and well said!

[@sadfunkykong8506]

Same, my father would play this band all the time but never liked them. It wasn't until I saw them live I grew to love them. The funny thing was that show was the 2nd final show in New York.

[@droppedmydagger3834]

As someone who has been drumming for a few years I have been listening to extreme music for a while and had heard the name a bit back in the day. One day playing clone hero with my step brother and Panasonic youth came up on random. I was stunned. I didn't know what to make of it. Never heard ANYTHING like them before. instantly listened to everything they ever released. Did not like them much at first but liked the style and liked a few gems like Prancer, Farewell Mona Lisa, and more. Now I can just throw on their discography and know the words to any song that comes up and understand it musically somewhat...but I still notice little things in songs I never noticed before even after years of listening, and thats why I love them SO MUCH. Years later and they still sound unique, I find I need to take breaks from them though and listen to more normal stuff or everything that isnt Dillinger starts to sound plain and boring...

[@toriandicapmond161]

@@droppedmydagger3834 you know you've found your jam when it puts boredom on everything else, D.!

[@phildupuis1084]

That was amazing. His dynamics, musicality and precision were all first rate. As a drummer and a pianist myself I appreciate the shout out to the importance of playing other instruments. Let's not forget that technically piano is a percussion instrument -- but with colour -- and its by being sensitive the tonal colours of sound, and not just the rhythmic elements, that we become better drummers

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Nice stuff Phil!

[@rawrcalumx]

The first time i heard Panasonic Youth on MTV's Headbangers Ball in '04 or 05, i was absolutely flabbergasted as a guitarist and drummer.

[@MatthewOceanXVX]

“I’m a little bit stunned here..this is amazing”. Yes, yes it is.

[@proto204n4]

Can we stop and admire that bass tone while we're here?

[@alexfreakdaxer927]

I’ve met and jammed with Billy. He is phenomenally talented

[@theodoredavidmooney5703]

Used to chat with Ben and Billy back when Facebook was new and talk about nice and intelligent gentlemen... Saw them at least 10 times live...So amazing and gone forever...

[@mainey1512]

I was fortunate enough to catch Dillinger on their Farwell tour at the kings arms. It was the end of an Era for both the band and the venue. Most memorable live show of my life. None of them miss a beat. And that's even when half of the band are hanging from the lighting rigs or crowd surfing. Damn I miss them.

[@OgSleep]

These guys are on a whole other level

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

🙌

[@TheJaketyler93]

Billy Rymer is one of the best in the genre right now, he's going to be well remembered after he's all done.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Yes Jake!

[@deathpigguitars]

I recall Billy commenting when he first joined the band that learning their existing material he had to look at no more than 4 bars at a time.. and then he built on that approach. One of my all time fave bands and definitely one of my favourite 3 drummers. . . Gold Teeth on a Bum, Black Bubblegum, Paranoia Shield, there are too many to mention but those songs jump to my mind immediately

[@andreabruciati275]

Billy Rymer is simply amazing, he has such a unique style and still he is such an humble musician, One Of Us Is The Killer is their best record imho

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I need to check out more of him Andrea! 💯🙌

[@nayrtnartsipacify]

NEENATEB ANERNATHEN VETEO

[@alexfreakdaxer927]

Yes, One of us is the Killer is a wonderfull album, but for me the best of Dillinger is Option Paralysis, first work with Billy Rymer.

[@wetteryan]

Way back I was at a Dillinger show that they were playing with Between the buried and me and after the last song of the last set instead of a traditional encore he and Blake Richardson came out of stage just the 2 of them and they had a drum off. It was mind numbing. Truly absolute masters of their craft.

[@ilves5980]

@@alexfreakdaxer927 I agree Option is an amazing record and my favourite by them. To be from the era it is, it is a little 90's sounding production wise. I find myself often wanting to hear what it would have sounded like if it was more polished, but that would probably have removed so much of the raw energy.

[@Neorigg]

More Dillinger Escape Plan please!!! Maybe a regular live version of one of their songs so you can hear the full band with the singer. I suggest the song Panasonic Youth by them.

[@gnarxy]

yesss!! my favorite band.,., Billy is so unique! I think he has a "Prancer" play through as well if you want more drum isolation videos from him.

[@kidtrinity2157]

Totally agreed with the points made at the beginning there. Being somebody whose first instrument was and always will be drums/percussion, I'm eternally grateful that I decided to learn other instruments. Being able to interpret music in a pragmatic, mathematical sense helps a lot with composition. I primarily play guitar now, but I'm a solo musician and producer and my percussive compositions have definitely changed the more I've taken influence from elsewhere. Percussive counterpoint in composition really stands out when it's utilized effectively, and understanding how that works from a melodic standpoint is definitely something every drummer should strive to learn. My favourite mainstream example of really effective percussive counterpoint is Stewart Copeland from the Police, what an absolute unit of a drummer. TDEP is fantastic as well, had the pleasure of seeing them in concert in the late 2000s, awesome live group.

[@TheMatadrum]

Loved Billy for a long time. He has an excellent stick technique.

[@ChristySassDeluxeHarrison]

This was awesome, so glad you were introduced to Billy Rymer and TDEP! He is absolutely outstanding, and probably my favorite drummer, ever.

[@alexfreakdaxer927]

OMG...i'm very very happy because since 2011 this is my favorite drummer of all times too. Billy Rymer, Chris Pennie and Gil Sharone are the beasts on this istrument.

One way to describe Dillinger Escape Plan, Chaotic

[@juhaloukaja5078]

[@michaelvieregge2257]

Mr rooney , you have to forgive us all for referencing chris pennie so much . Its hard to explain , but , for some of us , he was our drumming idol growing up . We had never been exposed to a kick snare ostinato with ,um... repeating and alternating patterns ( I don't know enough about music lingo to convey that further ) with jazz ," world music " and the fury of a certain two vocalists and an Adam Sandler lookalike on guitar . We're Chris Pennie dorks and we miss him dearly .

[@theblackestvoid]

@@michaelvieregge2257 It's hard to explain how much Chris blew people's minds in the early 2000's, people would talk about him in mythical terms. It grew when you heard other great drummers talk about him like they were scared of him lol.

[@michaelvieregge2257]

@@theblackestvoid it was that ostinato he would do to the guitars tritones in effing confusing meters. No one had ever heard anything like that before . And outside of rhymer(and that one fella Gilly Sharone) learning dillinger songs, I've never anyone else besides Brendan morgan do a quick way less complicated version in a Misery Signals song.( love Brendan's drumming also )

[@stanislawrybinski]

I saw TDEP live in 2010 when they were touring Option Paralysis and ohmygod they f__ken shredded my face and earsholes that night! Unfortunately, didn’t have a chance to see them perform later but the energy they gave and their drums+bass combo is probably the most powerful I’ve seen. Unforgettable.

It is just so amazing to see him play such a complex and incredible song with a straight face like this. Also love the fact that he has fairly small kit considering the music he is playing, it shows a great control of his dynamic and a lot of creativity on top of his incredible technic and energy. I know you take more Patreon request, and it is fair, butjJust in case: there is one very overlooked drummer that you could react to: Florent Marcadet - Treasure This Pain could be a good song to react to.

[@aknuckles111]

Like @Slimefudge I've been lucky enough to see these guys twice. Can safely say the musicianship on stage is bang on like it is here. Amazing.

[@copycatdragon]

These guys are amazing. They are all so talented... Firstly it's really hard to listen to their music as it is really fast and chaotic, time signatures are changing every 5 seconds, it's like a really fast paced and agressive jazz but that's the price you pay for getting into one of the most technically perfect bands in the world right now.

[@wetteryan]

I saw him do a drum off against Blake Richardson at a show that Dillinger played with BTBAM. It was at the end of the night after the last song of the last set. It was like an encore situation. And my god... It was like a religious experience.

[@drownthepoor]

It's always funny having the uninitiated experienced musician hearing Dillinger. They almost always say "I can't even begin to describe this." Rymer is very good, and he does things a little differently than Chris Penne did. But Penne and Weinman developed the sound that is Dillinger Esc Plan, and Penne definitely leaned into jazz roots more. Both of them play on a somewhat minimal kit though, and make a lot of drummers look silly with their elaborate kits.

[@Jd0t-plays]

Andrew , I'm glad you enjoyed it, and finally got to check this out. The execution of his accents and assault of time changing ostinato sections are the heart of the way Dillinger writes their music. I recommend starting with their most recent release and working backwards, because they are a very hard band to explain but the music is very ... erm...harsh mixture of jazz and .....grindcore/hardcore/mathcore...ish? Nobody else sounds like them really. As a whole they are an extremely talented group of musicians. Billy was not always with them, another linear drummer with a similar style named Chris Pennie was their original drummer. The dynamics this dude gets out of a china cymbal......

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

It was pretty intense as a first time listen. So much going on. I can see why Dillinger have such a committed following.

[@reeread]

I have to agree that understanding a second instrument is of the upmost importance for a drummer. It wasn’t until I mastered the tuba that I was truly able to integrate my drumming into a heavy metal format.

[@hydrakn]

I really hope Billy makes more music with his other band ThoughtCrimes in the future. DIllinger and Botch were the two biggest shocks to me in drumming and opened my eyes to so much more music...

[@mrsilence666]

[@Garamondable]

My twin brother is self taught on drums and after learning drums, he taught himself piano and dear lord that man is a monster. (this video was one of his practice videos when we were younger) Piano definitely helped him with getting all the “in between” sounds and timings down to the point where no one in the music scene here could believe he taught himself

[@gilligan80]

What's he up to now?

[@iodetroitrecordingstudio5443]

If you’ve never heard Dillinger you’re in for a serious treat. To me they’re the undisputed champs of mathcore, no one does it better or crazier. And their live shows were the most intense thing I’ve ever seen, ever. Just fire and strobes and back flipping off amps, totally unadulterated fucking mayhem. Rymer also plays on a most excellent record called Material Control by Glassjaw.
