Schism, Tool - Trinity Rock and Pop Drums Grade 8

[@joshwatts766]

You have such a great spirit Mike! My daughter's working through the grades, its always a pleasure to watch you play at the start of each grade, you've brought real life to this journey for us.

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

How lovely, cheers Josh and so glad you've found the channel helpful! 👊🏻

Have you listened to Tools new album, Danny’s drums in pneuma are so god damn technical, watch the Vic Firth Pneuma drum cam footage, trust me you will have no regrets. Danny is legitimately a GOD

Philly Choy lol I guess

[@The_GreenHub]

I absolute love Danny Carey - personally Lateralus is my favourite tool song

[@archgod_yt2431]

Good lord that kick pattern in the final section is insane for a single foot

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Ha ha yes a good challenge! It does say in the book it cam be played with one or two - just thought I'd try it with one for fun! Cheers for watching Shawn.

[@sashaqy8081]

I’m learning this song for a music assignment and I found it to be not as hard than it seemed and sounded👍

[@magn8195]

Were those Bonzoesque 16th note triplets that you played from 4:57

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

MagN8 That’s the one! The notes for this piece say you can play the kick part with one pedal or two, tried to do it with one here just for fun! Thanks for watching :)

[@gorgeousgeorge9299]

Nice man thanks for sharing this! Just starting to learn it - such a fun track!

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Sure thing, cheers George!

[@seanscott9423]

nice man, very well played! I was wondering when u were gonna smash this one

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Ha ha cheers Sean, not sure about smashed it but it was lots of fun to play! :)

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Thanks for watching :)

[@BanksRiverMusic]

Why is the first line written differently ad if its like an octave up or something? Since when were there octaves in drums

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

It's the bass guitar part written for reference! Hence it says "(bass)"

[@jo8dr]

I'm not even doing this in my exam, but the double pedal practice is great in this

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Yeah! I played it with a single but it was a roast at the end - prob would have been better with a double! Cheers man.

[@ashumal3114]

You are superb im Jonathan from India I'm just 15 years old I'm doing GRADE 8 just after 1 month is my grading exam so what are the tips...

[@guydudly]

2:58

[@guydudly]

my fav part

[@cubernikhil914]

quick doubt. In the first line of the notes there are a bunch of different notes which are placed above the line. I don't really know what they are for but they seem like extra toms. I didn't see you play anything like that in the start. So are they hi hat notes itself or you couldn't play them due to the lack of the toms?

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

It’s the bass guitar part, written for reference so you know where you are in the intro and know when to come in!

[@cubernikhil914]

@@MikeBarnesDrums Ohk thanks!

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

@@cubernikhil914 👊🏻

[@AbirDaga]

I've a short doubt of 1 note, in the 5th bar first note it says high-hat, bass dum and small tom together however none of the other drumcovers including yours have played that, is this my misunderstanding or there's a reason behind it? 0:17

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

Above the note you're talking about it says "(HH on repeat only)". So the tom is played with the kick the first time (0:17), and the hi-hat (and no tom) is played when that line is repeated (0:24).

[@AbirDaga]

Okay, Thankyou

[@ihavenolife4642]

doing this one soon 😬. cant wait tho my kinda song to learn

[@e.antony01]

What time signature is it in I thought it was either 4/4 or 6/8 but other than that the song is good

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

It shifts, pretty much every bar! It's a mixture of (in order of appearance) 5/8, 7/8, 6/8, 2/4, 4/4, 9/8 and 3/4. Cheers man!

[@e.antony01]

@@MikeBarnesDrums if I ever played this it would be very confusing when I first started but then after few practices then I'll get used to it

[@MikeBarnesDrums]

@@e.antony01 Ha ha yes, there's a reason there's a number 8 on the front of the book!!! :)

[@Unkown_Drummer]

Hi, great playing especially the kick pedaling at the end lol. Do you have any advice on the improv in 6/8 to 4/4 section?

[@drumdaddy3004]

I struggled to do it with a double bass pedal. How did u even get close to doing it with one?!?!?

Yes i def found this v challenging with one kick pedal, good workout though! Kick drum playlist here: Kick drum technique: kzbin.info/aero/PLcfoni8UPb9rfMKiVUYJVO6C7lBcKZNvb
