      Definitely Meshuggah!! Their drummer Tomas Haake is another one of a kind drumming monster. They basically pioneered the genre AAL got their start in haha. Tons of polyrhythms, tons of riffs that extend over the bar. I second @moorkowbell 's Clockworks track recommendation. Would love to see you go down the Meshuggah rabbit hole

    Matts from Massachusetts and went to Berklee College of Music the same years I attended, 07-11 era.
    He can literally play all genres of music and in my opinion is the best drummer on the planet.
    Definitely check out his play through of “Gordian Naught” or the AAL song “The Woven Web”

    You HAVE to check out Meshuggah.

  • @joelariasdiaz6991
    @joelariasdiaz6991 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I think for better understanding we should say the structure of the song is on 5 and 7 16th note groupings instead 2 and 3... It is 5-7-7-5-5-7. The 5 group is subdivided in two chunks (2+3) and the 7 in three chunks (2+2+3) in that phrase only the first note of each chunk is played and there is where so-called 2 and 3 groupings are coming from

    I think you'd really get a kick out of Protest the Hero. They're a pure musician's band, to the point that they've released their last 3 albums independent with paired instrumental versions because they got sick of all the stuff that wasn't making music. It unfortunately means they haven't made a music video in almost a decade, but all their albums are on their TH-cam channel. My favorite song off their most recent album is Soliloquy. Easily one of the most overlooked bands on the progressive side of the metal scene. They're masters of writing songs that are ridiculously technical but still absurdly catchy.

    Mudvayne's first album L.D. 50 was full of awesome rhythmic patterns like this, and that came out in '99 or 2000. Their song "(K)now (F)orever" has the bass and drum pattern 4,3,2,1 come up a lot (most noticeably around the breakdown at 3:17). Also their song "Everything and Nothing" the drummer Matthew McDonough patterns his bass hits around hit snare drum hits. 2 bass drum hits before snare, 1bd hit before then after snare, then 2bd hits after snare...BBS, BSB, SBB. L.D. 50 opened my mind as a young drummer...alobg with every Tool album of course.
