Jay Weinberg (Slipknot) - "Medicine For The Dead" Studio Drum Cam

[@Datdudestone]

Underrated song from the album

[@jscott8271]

One of my favorites

[@aconsciousperspective5628]

It's the best. And Acidic.

[@thetobi583]

I think it's awesome that you put out stuff like this for a casual maggot like myself to enjoy. Hearing any tracks separated is always a treat

[@timbofromkeno]

The first time I saw Jay playing was when I was 18. He was drumming with Madball, and Eric Moore was playing with another band the same night. It was such a phenomenal night for drums. And Jay was playing a vintage Rogers kit too, which just blew my mind. hahaha What a rad dude!

[@Hudson7979]

I loved the new album keep up the good work🤘

[@mordfustang1968]

Great performance, Jay! I'm still waiting for drum cam of Yen🙏

[@juclar_filho]

*_HARD IDOL! Killer… Insane… Brutal… Go beyond! Always respecting the work of the band and leaving its legacy! It's about that and much more! Maximum respect always! Hugs from a big fan of yours here in Brazil brother!_*

[@richpitty]

Watching this man makes me want to play the drums except I know I can’t come anywhere near this dude he’s my favorite drummer by a good margin keep rocking brother!!!

[@6m1ke66]

Incredible as always. Ur amazing Jay

[@Virvum_Juggernaut]

The studio sessions of Jay all sound phenom and are critical in displaying his power. Note that he’s using the butt of the stick in his left (snare) hand for this recording. Edit : I love these isolated drum sessions.

[@Lemordison92]

Yeah with the butt of the stick in his is left hand he's given more fat tone and power we need more studio sessions jay.

I love you, Jay ❤

[@blazeshark1]

Lets goooo

[@OliKember]

So he isn’t playing to a click track and they are all recording the parts together live. So cool to realise that. Super organic feel to the flow.

[@JamesSSWayne]

yes he's playing with a click track.

[@Live_Session]

I would give all the money I have, just to see the whole Slipknot's rehearsal... At least on KZbin 😇

[@alfredneumann4332]

on the ride bell/tom part i saw him accidently hitting the crash from below every now and then. funny to see that even pros have to deal with these issues :D

[@Virvum_Juggernaut]

Yeah man, in RED FLAG his right stick gets hung up in the bottom of his crash for a moment and nearly pulls it out of his hand. Edit : Consummate pro that he is, he never skipped a beat though.

[@yassineyassine-ki2vy]

the chapeltown rag and the dying song studio drum cam please !

De Sade please 🤘

[@james737er]

best song off that album, no one can change my mind

[@andrewferrara11]

Medicine For The Dead reminds me of me taking my medicine in the morning.

[@djabthrash]

@jay : Butt-ended left stick... I've always wondered if for mixing it could create problematic inconsistencies in sound between the left and right hand hits, since your right hand has the tip end of the stick instead of the butt end.

[@szmryb]

hey I'm a sound engineer, and a butt-ended left stick is great for the mix, it gives us that *fat* snare drum sound. Of course, it depends on the song but in heavy music like this it works very well.

[@djabthrash]

@@szmryb Sure, but what happens when a drummer does rolls with both hands (especially if done on the same kit element : hihat, snare, ...) ? Doesn'it sound weird (since the other hand has tip-ended stick) ? Always been wondering about that.

[@szmryb]

@@djabthrash It does sound a bit odd, but the benefits outweigh the cons. A nice, strong back beat is just more important than a perfectly consistent roll in this kind of music, although I had some drummers disagree with that and that's totally okay, at the end of the day it's the drummers choice to play in whatever way is comfortable for him.

[@szmryb]

Also, in this song jay isn't playing much rolls, that's why he's playing with his left stick backwards. In some other videos of him playing where the song requires more fast fills he playes with both sticks normal, so it really depends on what fits the song

[@djabthrash]

@@szmryb Gotcha my man !

[@fortraventales5776]

Jayyyy 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

[@ryan-cochran]

Did anyone else see that he's holding the sticks upside down? I saw Evgeny Novikov, the drummer of Slaughter to Prevail, doing that. Wonder if Jay saw that too?

[@Virvum_Juggernaut]

Vinnie Paul (PANTERA) drummed with the butt of the sticks his entire career and that’s prolly where Evgeny’s influence came from. Jay is only using the butt in his left (snare) hand and would just be doing it to gain more attack, or punch, for the recording of this particular track. Edit : The man hits so hard already that one wouldn’t think it could make much difference lol.

[@mikeosborne5018]

I’d love to hear what the kit sounds like through the recording without the other instruments

[@bassinidiot168]

Am I not the only one who noticed him?

[@AnistonWIG]

Jay do have you left stick backwards?

[@AnistonWIG]

@@HealthyDrummer I’m pretty sure it’s to give his snare hits a more fuller sound

[@rezakoochaki156]

It's a normal thing

[@AnistonWIG]

@@rezakoochaki156 yeah I know I was just asking for clarification

[@djabthrash]

@@rezakoochaki156 Not exactly normal but not completely unusual especially for heavy music. Vinnie Paul (Pantera) did it all the time IIRR.

is the left stick upside down or is it like a timbale stick? and follow up question, is there a reason for it? is it a sound thing?

[@TheGodsMustBeCrazy]

What hi hats are those? They don't look like Zildjians?

[@krzekil]

What's the cymbal with the rings

[@Orion-cz4ew]

It's a stack, the brand he uses (Zildjian) has a Cymbal called spiral, and the one Jay has is one of them stacked in a oriental China trash from the same brand, I guess the China is 12" or 14" and spiral is 10" or 12"

Can someone please tell me what is his headset? 🎧

Looks like Blue Mix-Fi

[@fediprasetyo2353]

the ends of the drum sticks look different? is it upside down?

[@joaopedroreis9404]

is that a double bass drum or just dobble pedals?

[@ejohns224]

Why are you not credited for the end so far? You wrote this correct? Performed it. Is this just a mistake or did they really do that?

[@scott744]

anyone know why Jay has one of the sticks backwards? im not a drummer so not sure if its for the sound or what just curious

[@riskymusicgames]

For getting solid sound even with low hit

[@scott744]

@@riskymusicgames figured it may be something like that, thanks for letting me know dude!

[@ryan-cochran]

Makes the hits harder/more noise

[@ll7868]

Preference. Sticks come in many sizes and weights, Jay uses custom sticks called the 908 Signature, they're medium weight, medium length but thicker than the average 5A sticks they're modeled after more like 5B and slightly heavier in the tips for max energy or as Jay holds them here to use the heavy butt to really make the cymbals shine. He doesn't hold them that way on every song. I used completely different sticks, one was long and thin 6A with a rounded weight-nub above the grip in my left hand and a heavy, short, thick 2B stick with 5 ringed grip-grooves in my right. 5B is the most popular sticks size for metal but everyone is different.

[@zacharygagnon2345]

you are my idole

[@boomerdunkin]

First again HA

[@jscott8271]

Jay was holding the drumstick in his left hand wrong

[@aconsciousperspective5628]

It's for sound engineering purposes to get a crisper and clearer sound when mixing.

[@Menoetius.]

Which end you hold a stick from is never the wrong end it's just a matter of preference and in this case probably for Studio recordings because you get more power and definition in the hits. The drummer for Slaughter to Prevail does it all the time in both hands, I've personally never seen him *not* hold his sticks in reverse
