Meinl Cymbals - Night Verses - "8 Gates of Pleasure"

[@353darkesthour]

The collective chops in this room could split an atom.

[@MrOmen420]

Aric is becoming the most entertaining drummer to watch

[@drumpetbass]

8 Gates of Pleasure: 1. The mix 2. The drum tuning 3. The playing! the technique! the timing! incredible. 4. The aesthetic- those drum heads are amazing! 5. The tasteful incorporation of samples 6. The live band vs. playing to a track 7. The groove despite the non-traditional time signatures 8. Finally, the cymbals

[@jamesadamgleason9471]

You forgot the bass player (I guess it's included in the mix.) With the right speakers, each bass note hits like a damn kick. It's so awesome

[@m4rquitos948]

@@jamesadamgleason9471 and guitar player is from another planet

[@xymbolix]

@@m4rquitos948 The whole band is fucking Alien. Nobody should be this clean and tight. Its Sorcery.

[@The_KlaVra]

I need the whole album played like this... Its unreal and unfair how good this album is, its madness...

[@joedagostino7813]

If they were to tour this whole album, that’d be quite the experience

[@idiot_city5444]

It would be better if it wasn't split up

[@pvitzrick]

its gonna give gallery of sleep a run for its money which is insane to think about because that album is incredible

[@BrandonMelvinDrums]

People use the word "underrated" so much nowadays, but Night Verses are CRIMINALLY underrated.

[@loumason6120]

i think ur right @@BrandonMelvinDrums

[@nsimonsen63]

The most creative and exciting drummer doing it right now. Trust.

[@idiot_city5444]

Aric and Morgan Berthet

[@joepottie8109]

Ever since the Guitar Centre drum off. 💪🏻

[@Erickhetfield]

And Baard Kolstad.

[@MrOfftherope]

And Matt Garstka…and Blake Richardson…

[@anthonyreynoso7275]

@@MrOfftheropeBeat me to it😂👍

[@craigfrober316]

The most exciting 3-piece since Rush. If anyone deserves to carry on the torch left by Neil Peart, it's Aric.

[@m4rquitos948]

a special mention to the guitarist and the bass player as well, the best possible combo of musicians.

[@locustt7]

Discovered this band last night and I instantly recognized Aric blasting those drums! I remember seeing this awesome guy at 2012's drum-off. Such a great drummer and great band!

[@Traumglanz]

Can you imagine that Aric goes even 10 times harder live? I was totally blown away by him. Not only by him, but especially by him. Love from Vienna.

[@sgt.sender1]

So glad to have found these dudes. Simply amazing and i love their last 2 albums to death.

[@DanWaters]

Been listening to this album at least daily since it dropped. I haven’t been this excited about any band in a long time. This shit is just awesome, all of it.

[@grapehichew]

holy shit 2:26 to 2:46 might be some of the most immaculate and smooth limb independence I have ever seen not only mixing between electronics and real drums its also in perfect time gtfoutta here dude 😵

[@christopherjd1523]

Insane to see this song being played perfectly live…..their talent is immense 3:18 upto 3:50 is special 👌🏻

[@DulceDul217]

I know Aric said there were playthroughs coming, but I didn't thought we would get Meinl quality full band playthroughs, this is awesome!! 🔥🔥

[@fransiscomarrujo629]

Just saw these dudes at Kill Iconic fest and they are so insanely good, glad these videos exist so I can come back and watch in awe again.

[@aLexTaKaTu]

This is easily one of the best albums of the year without a doubt, aric improta is a beast

[@NessNT]

Absolutely

[@davidmaycry5218]

And to think it's only part 1, damn!

[@arifimanov6477]

Absolutely amazing, such a pleasure to watch the whole band here

[@ben_manzanares]

This performance is EXACTLY why this is album of the year 2024!

[@Badalabandabad]

I have recently found this band and been nonstop listening to them since a couple of weeks ago... and I just found out about this video... what a golden find.

[@xymbolix]

That riff that Nick starts at 1:52 is absolutely FANTASTIC

[@clumsydrummer7914]

I have collected many signed drumsticks from my years of going to shows, but I have to say having Aric's in my collection means more to me than others. He was incredibly humble to speak with even if only briefly. His creativity is astounding.

[@leonflorence118]

That kit is beautiful.

[@SineSawSquare]

This is unreal! Drummer is fucking incredible. Saw them ope for Tool on Thursday and I’m blown away!!

[@hamhi98]

Incredible, the tone and overall production on this song is beyond next level

[@perpetualgrimace]

Damn that was wild! Highly technical and precise, but also emotional.

[@thebaz1]

This Aric dude plays the kit like he's exercising

[@loganwelty7094]

One of the best bands around. Sheer inspiration and creativity.

[@KalkhabadChannel]

Best discovery of 2023 !!!

[@GrimmHades]

Just looked up the best drum solos ever and found this guy from years back in a drum solo and wow he is impressive

[@ijcp5]

These guys are so damn skilled and creative. If they stick with it, I doubt they’ll ever “peak”. They’re helping me understand what a “loop in time” means because their creativity knows no bounds. It feels reliable, sustainable even. I’m running out of ways to describe how incredible their shit is!

[@Twimbles]

I went through 8 gates of pleasure hearing this. Fantastic stuff!

[@mm0901]

The controlled chaos in this song is insane! Love it 🙌🏻🤩

[@legendsofthebravebard]

Aric is such a beast! This power trio band is amazing! Love their instrumental stuff

[@seananderson5334]

I was recommended your new album through KZbin music. Just listened to it by chance and I'm really digging it.

[@lonard38]

Same! Blown away

[@joedagostino7813]

Talk about a morning surprise! One of the nastiest songs 🔥 covers all the NV bases: shreds, dynamics, atmosphere. Part 2, we need you now 😭

[@feliperiquelmet]

The NV trio is something else guys 🙏🏻 the way that they create music is unreal

[@iamdeadhead84]

This is PURE ART AT ITS FINEST! This is therapy..

[@AaHo0102]

You guys have the best mix on every video you release.

[@rubaidaallen2764]

Incredibly, incredibly impressed. This trio is straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@askgee111]

The drumming and guitar work is obviously astounding but I’m loving the spotlight on the bass from the 4.15 mark

[@valentinabarrado135]

I just saw these guys yesterday performing in Birmingham as TOOL’s support act. THEY WERE INCREDIBLE!!!

[@tarnjeetjohal4219]

How was the concert as a whole? I'm gonna see them tomorrow at the O2.

[@gSWG3R]

Aric is just insane.

[@n2fabian726]

Your drums look amazing! And that part at 2:30 is just insane!!!

[@fabiodias5527]

DUDE, THIS SONG - holy shit! SO fucking good. I"m absolutely blown away by this and Aric's work. Gonna check out the rest of the album from them.

[@bardo8210]

Those drums have an awesome sound/tone!

[@haatju]

Amazing drummer and band!!

[@fabiodias5527]

Yo this shit is DOPE. I've known Aric online for quite a while but had never heard any project of his and this is FIRE.

[@markkeane6843]

Had the utmost fucking pleasure of seeing these perform this in berlin supporting TOOL last weekend Holy shit what a performance.😮

[@analyticequals]

Such a catchy Melody. Sick new Album fellas.

Gran banda. Aric es una máquina humana.

New album has been on repeat since it came out. And the best part? There's more coming next year. Edit: Am I crazy or does he have an Iron Cobra right pedal and a Dyna Sync left?

[@wildmack1214]
