Idk what about this video made me realize this but how insanely dope and selfless is it that II does the unbelievable things he does then says “here, I’ll post a full blown video of me playing these songs so anyone who wants to see EXACTLY what I’m doing then I’ll double down doing interviews giving tips about drumming and my styles while also explaining why I do the things I do”. That is absolutely incredible and do not know any drummers of the modern day, SPECIALLY in Sleep Token’s musical level and fame/popularity, that have come out doing the thing. The selflessness that’s last being discussed is not only present in his playing but his drumming life. Him on and off stage ya know? That’s so freaking cool man. My god can this band go a freaking day without giving me another reason to love them?!?! Like my god. Just don’t do something dope af for TWENTY FOUR HOURS lol PLEASE. I’m always critical on music and tend to find the smallest flaw in a song or band and I’m done with them yet I feel their next album could completely freaking suck, could be a damn dog barking for 4 hours, and I’d still walk away thinking “DAMN another masterpiece” 😩😩 I hate it!

I agree. Using the term “hack” implies a shortcut or selling someone (us viewers or ST lovers) short. There’s nothing fake about pure skill. What is wrong with utilizing efficiency or a better easier way to do something when it still takes incredible amounts of skill, talent, and experience to perform that “hack“?
@darkember393
@darkember393 8 ай бұрын
Hack is a figurative use in this case. He uses something that in reality is super super simple but with his drumming style it makes that simple thing such as repeating his patterns on different parts of the kit while linear drumming but with his insane sense of complexity and evolution, the patterns he plays can sound completely difgerent just because of the spot he plays them at. II (TWO) understands that complexity comes from simplicity.

The genre mixing thing seems to be very much a product of the last 10-15 years of music being so freely and easily available. Back in the 80's and 90's, music was expensive and some records were hard to get hold of, so musicians and fans tended to be quite tribal and listen to a relatively small subset of the music they liked. You might like rock, metal, grunge but you wouldn't entertain the idea of listening to pop, jazz, blues as well. You might find an occasional band who mixed in something different - electronica or hip hop into metal - but most bands were quite pinned in to their genre. Todays bands in their 20's and early 30's have had easy access to a much wider array of music and it's showing in the writing and performing.

D&B producer here 👋 Recently saw the Drumeo video with II and have gone on a major rabbit hole since. I've never been so captivated by a drummer's playing before, and aside from all the other insanely good components that make up II's style, his snare really stood out. With II taking influence from drum and bass, I wonder if he tuned his snare with a jungle/drum and bass producer workflow in mind - when sampling slower break beats and pitching them up, the tone of each hit is increased resulting in a much tighter sound. As soon as I heard his snare, it made me immediately think of pitched up drum breaks!

I’m not gonna name names or anything.. But having seen footage of II’s previous metal outfits and they’re highly technical. Fast and highly skilled. I feel like as II, he has learned so much with previous styles through the years, implementing so many styles and technicality. He is much more relaxed and is having fun in this band, though still technical and so musically aware (playing along to vocals). A true musician. You can’t learn some of his mental ability as “skills”. He’s a true, rare stand out, highly intelligent and a highly skilled musician. Everyone wants to call it “easy”, rather than create it themselves. Ps. Great video and breakdown btw. It’s usefully for normies like me.

“Talent is a myth” is one of my pet hates. Talent most certainly is NOT a myth and anyone who says that it is, is just stupid and is trying to cope with their lack of it. Sure, anyone can become a decent musician or whatever with lots of practice and dedication and yes, “hard work prevails where talent fails” and all that. But you can have a musician who is in their 30’s, practices everyday and is a decent player. Then along comes some ten year old who’s been playing for a year and absolutely smokes them. Why? Because talent is not a myth. Talent combined with hard work and dedication is where greatness lies. Tony Royston Jr back in the day as an 8 year old wrecking drummers three times his age, had absolutely nothing to do with hard work and dedication, it was raw unadulterated talent.

I play healers in online video games. Makes sense that I’m a drummer. Drums (and bass) are a strong active support that is the linchpin of a group. Guitars and keys/whatever else in the lead section are the dps. Vocals/frontman is the tank (absorbing aggro and mistakes made are IMMEDIATELY noticed and come with catastrophic consequences for the group). I’m gonna continue to build upon this band mmo dungeon theory and start a group surrounding it. We’ll write songs about speedrunning Dire Maul in classic WoW and shit.

Hey Gabe. I stumbled across the DBO page and I am loving your vids bro! You also turned me onto I Prevail. I’m becoming a big fan very quickly. I wish you guys would consider coming to the northeast. I see you’re playing the festival in Ohio. I’m actually friends with the boys in Shinedown. That should be a hell of a festival. Anyway. Thanks for the content. Hope to see you guys soon. 🤞🏻

He is for sure one of the most creatives drummers I've listen on on metal/rock music recently. Does someone knows the song it's playing in 4:15 time of the video???

Personally I'd love to see a "drum off" between II and Darkside from Mgła. Both have really, really nice techniques.

Talent Is practicing as a little kid. I remmember singing sings fron Britney spears, from Metallica AND a lot of different music genders since I was around 3 yo AND now that I am 31 I have a good voice. But thats what I do, I just love singing so much I do It everyday without even thinking about It... So basically I know I have a good voice because I ve practiced My whole life

I just started listening to Sleep Token. Some of their stuff sounds a bit like Tesseract or Sky Harbor. Two other bands I really love.

I love your detailed video! The only thing i stumbled on was the part about being incognito. I fully disagree Wit that!. Anton Corbijn proves that with putting his main subject in front of the band in this case and focused on the band leaving the main subject out of.focus The effect was that the viewer was super interested in the unclear object instead of the clear subjects.

A lot of us know who he is. But it's really not important as his playing speaks for him. Knowing his name won't change his playing. And that's what Sleep Token wants us to focus on. And they are all insane players.

It's always a person's playing and not who they are. When has this not been the case? The getups are just another gimmick like Kiss, Slipknot, etc., in effort to draw attention, but admittedly they have the best grift in that department. As for skill, objectively, the drummer is the only one who can play his instrument at a high level.
