I don't want to say this song changed my life, but it was the first I heard of Devin Townsend. Favorite (male) artist now. Anup's drumming is perhaps my favorite. I am a better man now.
There's just something special about watching a drummer in their natural habitat. It always brings me peace... So again, thank you Anup. You're an absolute monster in the best possible way.
I'm absolutely loving this song, I don't know why but around 4:30....after that fill your right arm just kind of glides to the ride so smoothly and I love it. The other arm is doing ghost notes, foot is complimenting the snare hits then there is that arm just nonchalantly going to where it's supposed to. It's like a person just casually crossing the street in perfect synchronization to the traffic that's going much faster than he is.... It's awesome...great job on this bro. Also I love the sound of the kit.
I just absolutely love your drumming, the attention to detail you’ve made in the parts is not going unnoticed, amazing. Hits me hard, your grooves are out of this world. Hope Devin uses you again.
This is my favorite song on the album and I don’t know why. It is just so different and I love everything about it. I think it’s the random use of chromatics. It is just one cog in a masterpiece of an album. Your work on that album is amazing, very awesome work man!
Thank you! I appreciate that feedback. I still process my drums for mixing, but I'm learning that keeping things much more open for drum videos is helping.
asdrummer2008 yeah you’ll always have to do processing. Eq and compress etc but they sound wayyy better than they did like 2 years ago! I have recording stuff but haven’t yet started the mixing. Unsure if I want to get into it or just record and get someone else to do it. Troy Wright takes care of my stuff for now haha
Love your work on this album!!! Will there be a singularity... "There be monsters" playthrough???🤗🤗🤗🤗🤔🧐🤯 Because that would be fucking mind numbing and thanks ahead of time ANUUUUP
If you are looking for the thuddy deep sound then I'd suggest the ec2s. I find the pinstripes have a tad more sustain then the ec2s. If you want a bit more tone but controlled overtones then the pinstripes would be great

OHH YURRR!... wait...
66Samus did Hear Me
Worst Chicken SEX!
Yesssss so fucking powerful, really glad Devin chose you for this album!
Whaaat? Mr Sastry was the drummer in Empath??
Yes, I found my answer in Wikipedia! Amazing!
There are 3 drummers on Empath. Him, 66Samus and I don't know the other one.
@@666thekreator Morgan Agren, if you don't mind 😉
@@rmr5044 Morgan is incredible on whatever he plays in lol
This drum part is so exquisite, perfectly tailored for the music, just perfect in its mix of power and finesse, I love it.
Thanks for the kind words! \m/
I just absolutely love your drumming, the attention to detail you’ve made in the parts is not going unnoticed, amazing. Hits me hard, your grooves are out of this world. Hope Devin uses you again.
Everytime I watch this. I love you more. Thankyou
Killer, bro! So groovy and aggressive.
Thanks brotha man! I hope tour is going well. \m/ YOU RULE.
@@asdrummer2008 Do you have the drum notation for this by any chance? Awesome drumming man.
One of my favorite tracks on the album, largely due to your drumming, mate. Your tone is so infectious, not to mention skill factor off the charts.
I just can't believe how this man hits the drums
YES I was waiting for a play through of this one! I’d love to hear one for King, too
The funky part into the I AM. I AM part is one of my favourites on this album, the grooves are so sick.
one of the best I've ever heard! and super favourite!
This drum mix is so good. I absolutely love it!
Still loving!
Totally thought Samus did the double bass at the end! Excellent job!!!!
My favorite tune on the record. Fun watching the actual drummer play it note for note. Awesome job, Anup.
this is amazing!! very unique! please never stop working with Devin
Hope you get to tour with Devin one of these times that would be awesome.
Your playing is so explosive and yet so precise, so cool to watch. I sincerely hope you'll be able to join Dev onstage at some point on his tour.
Awesome song, amazing drums. I envy your talent.
That ride bell sings beautifully!
Goosebumps in the end.. Love the way you play.. :)
Congratulations you've entered Devin' Fantasy...
Incredible! cool song, made even cooler by Anup's awesome drum composition!
Dude hell yes!!! Great video and best album of the year! I'm pretty sure anyone who loves Devin but doesn't know ya are now big fans
So much groove!!!
Hope I can see you LIVE one day with Devin in France 🤞 ❤️
Anup, Meinl, Tama, Vic Firth, Evans...
Sounds incredible!! As many others have said, thank you for your work on this album. It's great bro!
everything about this is perfect
Such a great song
Well sounding drums!
I'd like to learn this song - this is how imagined being played. Good job
Good sounding
I think Devin is creating a new genre called 'Transcendental Metal'.
Anup's playing the new DT song = instant like!
You are the man, Anup! Keep killing it. 🤘🏻🔥
Great stuff thanks. Keep the empath drum cover coming!
Quite rare to hear metal drums with such groove! Awesome playing and perfect composition in my opinion. That snare is soooooo fucking punchy too!
Damn solid playing.. I'm definitely impressed. Like wow!
So good!!!
Fuck yes Anup!!!!! Your an absolute monster behind the kit . Nobody fills the pocket as stylish as you do . Keep up the amazing work dude!
Great drumming man! And to play with the god himself DT is the biggest compliment there is!
I would play this slightly different, but i really enjoy the way you performed; good synchronization and timing.
This is my favorite song on the album and I don’t know why. It is just so different and I love everything about it. I think it’s the random use of chromatics. It is just one cog in a masterpiece of an album. Your work on that album is amazing, very awesome work man!
Diverse mixture of styles going on..
Great work!! And solid production!!
The sound quality is absolutely great. The kit sounds amaze. Of course, wonderful playing as well.
How have I not seen this before?
Awesome stuff. Best song on the album and amazing drums make it so.
Absolutely gorgeous and groovy!
What a powerhouse of a drummer
so clean so awesome. Those hits are solid asf
I love your Carter Beauford like playing when you do the ride/Tom/HH grooves. Super tasty.
Yes, I am here, and yes call me stiff britches....
Killed it again man.
WOOOOOOOOO awesome song, awesome drum work m'dude 👍👍
awesome, awesome, greetings from algeria
DUDE!!! So stoked to see this. You're amazing, Devin's amazing, and this fucking video is amazing.
Thanks a lot brotha man! I hope all is well.
I wish before I die anup tours to nz
Superb bro
Smoother than a gravy sandwich !
so good
Damn,what a freak'n beast.
i can honestly say ive never heard anything like this. really cool
Anup is really a bonker
Great work
Wicked awesome!!
Anup ,Russia loves you.
That's absolutely good
awesome..
!!! Crushed!
Yeah not separating and isolating each mic/drum is working wonders. Your later recordings are way warmer and less processed sounding. Killing it!
Thank you! I appreciate that feedback. I still process my drums for mixing, but I'm learning that keeping things much more open for drum videos is helping.

standing ovation!
Yes mate!
Killer dude. Just killer. Hey Dev!! 👋❤️
Hell yeah i love this album
I really like your videos man! Sick drumming! Keep it up!
Everyone on this album is fucking phenomenal! Great job Anup!
Dude... This Kills 👊🏼 💯
Hey Anup, please make a video of how you tune your drums, specially your snare drum! ✌💪👏👏👏👏
I plan on doing this for sure!
Soo sick man!
Can you please do a cover of your song limitless???
Cool 👍👍👍👍👍
Please play King!!
Is there a transcription available for this??
🔥🔥 FIRE 🔥 🔥
Superb :)
WOW
Love your work on this album!!! Will there be a singularity... "There be monsters" playthrough???🤗🤗🤗🤗🤔🧐🤯 Because that would be fucking mind numbing and thanks ahead of time ANUUUUP
Sounds great; but why is it slower than the record?
Anup how do you get everything to have such an amazing punch? Is it the mic-ing, the tuning, post-processing, or just years of practice?
Yes
my guy anup did you sample the snare my g?
holy sh*t. this song is actually really interesting in 1.25x speed :D
Can confirm. Pretty cool.
Dude!!!
Should I go with Evans EC2 or Remo Pinstripes?
Im having a hard time finding a good video of a comparison.
If you are looking for the thuddy deep sound then I'd suggest the ec2s. I find the pinstripes have a tad more sustain then the ec2s. If you want a bit more tone but controlled overtones then the pinstripes would be great
Would any of the 8 people who thumbs downed this have the balls to say why?
OH DUDE I DIDNT KNOW YOU WERE THE ACTUAL STUDIO DRUMMER FOR THIS??!?!?!?
Much fun! \m/ It was three of us.
Hmm...didn't somebody tell the 8 people who accidently smashed the dislike button, that they just need to click it again?
But can you play singularity
Why does the first 2 minutes sound like a christmas song? :D
Anyway, cool stuff Anup!
Fucking incredible
This video clicked like on itself
Such a djentalmen
