Meh, basically it is 95% of the time Natural/harmonic Minor, then they apply modulations by enharmonic interchange or by chord substitution/modal interchange. Pretty easy stuff actually.

I'm personally not too into Periphery, but one thing has stuck to me ever since they didn't have a vocalist and Bulb (or Misha Mansoor) played "a cover" of their song Insomnia (later changed name with vocalist I think). It has such a catchy riff. And the way he playes extremely complex guitar parts while there's a phone ringing and he just has to ignore it. It's crazy to notice that video is now 16 years old. It felt so futuristic and progressive and modern and whatnot at the time, felt like it was just yesterday and it was still a work in progress.

One of my favorite progressive metal/death metal band is Jinjer for sure. "Home Back" is probably my favorite song on their most recent album, Macro, followed by "Ape", "Teacher, Teacher" and "Perennial" on the Micro album. A little bit about them is that they're from Ukraine and have a female lead, Tatiana. She has a really nice tone in her voice but where she really shines is in her vocal growls. The rest of the band is their guitarist- Roman, the bassist- Eugene, and the drummer- Vladislav (or just Vlad). The instrumentals are fucking incredible and since Vlad has joined the band (in 2014 I think?) the music has only gotten better. Please check them out! Even if you don't have them in a video, I think a lot of people can get into them. Many say to check out their song "Pisces" first. After listening to all of their other songs, "Pisces" is way low on my list of Jinjer faves.

Jinjer is killing as fuck dude. I really dig Outlander and I Speak Astronomy

[@MariaCalore]

Pisces is just that kind of simple accessible song, fun to react to since it has that from-sweet-melodic-to-cavernous-growl from a moment to the next. It's fine for a start!

[@alexreinking]

+1 for recommending them for their music, not for shock value

[@blooberchik1]

@@MariaCalore Oh yeah! I totally agree. It used to be the only song on my playlist from them, and before I really hadn't listened to metal, more specifically death metal. Jinjer definitely got me into metal and I love that! I feel like people write metal off so quickly because of a few songs or some bad stereotypical stuff, but theres so many subgenres just like any kind of music, and I think because of that, there's something for everyone!

[@danielhayun304]

jazz metal? haken you need to listen to them you need it suggestions : atlas stone, falling back to earth, the point of no return

[@someperson9052]

Can we all agree that he needs to talk about "dance of eternity" now?

[@spauldingFSU]

This is awesome! Thank you for breaking this down. Very appreciative.

[@LycoLoco]

This type of rhythmic stuff is my absolute jam. Thanks for breaking this down!

[@Gotinha123]

NOW YOU'RE TALKING, more progressive metal pls 😊

[@willweber9253]

Check out the band “Unprocessed” they take a lot of these rhythm concepts to an extreme with polyrhythms, odd meters, and etc.

[@cylian8422]

If you have 15 minutes, I really recommend Exist by Avenged Sevenfold.

[@mateorodari3385]

Man you just made a video about everything I love in music. Meshuggah is my favorite band ever, they’re so inspirational! I think it would be really cool to also have video on them x) And generaly metal is such a great universe and wenn you get it combined with more jazz stuff like with tigran it gets so incredible... Man just make more videos, I love it!

[@nickmalb]

Somehow I’ve never heard Tigran until now and this is incredible. If there are other “math jazz” artists in this vein you’d recommend I’m sure I’m not the only one that would love to check them out.

[@krakus_kromkus]

I recommend animals as leaders, specifically a song called cylindrical sea. I'm pretty sure it uses something akin to the coltrane changes

[@alispie]

"the vocals are insane" honestly, you'd be hard pressed to find someone who's doing vocals in neral better than Spencer right now.

[@benjaminh.abraham6815]

There’s a sub-genre called Mathrock which is basically gothic jazz.

[@Aljove12]

Cool way of explaining rhythmic phasing that I hadn't thought of before! As a percussionist, this automatically made me think of Steve Reich's Clapping Music and his other phasing works like Music for Pieces of Wood

I loved the rhythm lessons here. I was on my high-school drum line, and taking a college music intro class really helped me put even ore together. I love rhythm so much. Especially "weird" and interesting rythms. 7/8 is my favorite more common odd time signature. I've it when songs change back and forth between two odd times. This video has shown me that you can obtain a similar feel with a different technique.
