Mike Portnoy and TOOL... We know you've dreamed about it and today, it's happening.
Watch as drumming legend Mike Portnoy attempts the impossible task of learning TOOL's 12-minute masterpiece - "Pneuma". This song was released on TOOL's Fear Inoculum record in 2019 and is known for featuring some of Danny Carey's most complex drumming to date.
How will Mike go about learning this insane drum part? How does he crack the "code" of the song? Tune in to find out and watch Mike learn one of the most challenging drum parts ever created over the course of a Drumeo session lasting nearly six hours.💪🏼

Glad to see you all enjoying this exercise in human torture! 😂😝 Also, relieved to see I’m not getting bashed (at least too badly) for not “nailing it”…yes, this was a massive challenge!! As I mentioned in the video, I think watching Danny’s performance video and taking a look at the transcriptions were surely helpful…those are two additional tools I would’ve utilized at home if I were auditioning for a band or preparing to learn songs for a tour… (I also am NOT a professional transcriber nor sight reader…which would’ve surely sped up the process for a lot of drummers who are good at that) Surely this playthrough is rough in spots, but I did the best I could with the pressure of cameras rolling and a clock ticking…what a challenge!!! Wow… 🤯

I think what Drumeo did here was probably one of the most important videos to their channel - you just showed thousands of aspiring drummers, that even after decades of playing and probably being one of the best drummers of all time, even people like Portnoy still struggle learning certain songs. True learning never stops! Thank you Drumeo!

Even more incredible, he took a swing and gave it a damn good shot. It should remind all of us, There's ALWAYS another level. There's ALWAYS someone who makes you think, "Gawd, what's the point?". Just take a swing at it.

He watched a playthrough and had the notations. Let's be honest, he cheated and only managed to kinda get the main groove. He completely ignored the interlude solo part and came up with a part of his own. It would take him days to actually get the song properly. It's an incredibly complex and long song.

TOOL's music is nothing short of a musical Big Bang, a cosmic creation and simultaneously, a poignant end to the universe. It's an experience that has left me utterly speechless, a testament to the profound impact their artistry has had on me. Their sonic landscapes unfold like the universe itself, with layers of intricate melodies, and each lyric carries the weight of a collapsing star - intense, deep, and emotionally explosive. In every note, TOOL manages to encapsulate the essence of a journey, a voyage through the vast expanse of emotions. It's as if they've tapped into the very fabric of existence, weaving together a tapestry of sound that resonates with the complexities of life. The music is a gentle caress for the mind and soul, a cosmic embrace that leaves an indelible mark. And this particular song, it feels like the Big Bang of all Big Bangs - a creation that takes shape only to unravel, making way for a rebirth. It's a musical metamorphosis, a celestial dance where every note and lyric converges and diverges in a cosmic rhythm. This composition is more than just an auditory experience; it's a journey through the cycles of creation and destruction, a sonic representation of the universe's eternal ebb and flow. (16.6.2024)

Mike’s feat of getting it done in just 5 hours while the vast majority of us will play drums for a lifetime and never be able to nail it. Also, Mike’s balls and humility to agree to lay bare all of that, recording him so uncomfortable and out of his zone. And most of all, Drumeo’s conceptualization, execution and production to put this together. I can’t stress this enough, but this channel is absolutely fucking awesome. Thank you for this content.

The best part of this session is that he became determined to crack it. At least in what we get to see, he never get's overly frustrated, always seems to be having fun. Makes it so enjoyable to watch.

I didn't realize how good my father was at the drums until he started learning all the Dream Theatre songs back in the day, and how complicated they were. He had all their Albums. And recently my dad has been playing Tool too. He's 62! Great video!

@@tavaresdudu good question. He records himself sometimes. I'll have to check and see if he's posted it anywhere and get back to ya. He has an electronic set he plays in his basement for hours everyday. Plays in a band on the weekends but they play stuff like Van Halen, etc.

when mike asks to watch him play the song, cause he said seeing it helps him “cement” it in his brain. that’s how i feel sometimes. watching something helps so much.

As a drummer AND a professional video editor for 15+ years I appreciate the effort in both drumming and the video editing. It's a monumental effort on both parts. Awesome! I have a lot of respect.

The issue here isnt Mikes inability to play a song this technical, its the fact that most Tool (and DT for that matter) have so many changes it requires a roadmap to understand what comes next. If you dont know there's a fork in the road you wont know which way to go. Thats why drummers who are this talented often are part of the song writing. They help write the map.
