SHIT LMAO
Lmaoooooo
This is what the study girl studies
Shut the fuck up
Put some microtonal keys to it and then you get the best thing in music ever
It sounds like he's playing every drum fill to ever exist at the same time
Inside one giant kick
while simultaneously keeping a perfect 5/4 polyrhythm
No, you're comment is for real.
"Can you fill for 4 minutes?"
Hold my beer.... FOREVER!!!
Oh you like drums? Name every drum fill ever
This would be a pretty awesome reggae intro
Bless whoever got this guy his first drums and sticks.
KEN WINS he bought them himself haha
@@navmanshack1579 so bless him
I bet the neighbors "Curse whoever got this guy his first drums and sticks"
Pretty sure I read in an interview Zach's dad got him his first kit at 16 for Christmas. Fun fact Zach's dad makes it to every single show he can
@@jtyler0 aw thats nice. his hearing doesnt work anymore does it
when you take 2 gummy vitamins instead of 1
Underrated joke, XD
this made me laugh louder than I thought was possible
LOL
Holy shit bro I’m wheezing thank you
Roflmao
No daré like para no arruinar ese hermoso 666
oh boy i sure do love being a drumset in february of 2011
Simpler times
GloriBoiGaming You dont get the jone
Zach hill: imma beat you son.
wait Zach what are you doing with those sticks
i sure hope nothing wacky or uncharacteristic happens
i love this horn section
oh hey nfkrz
Oh heeeey…it’s your friendly neighbourhood Russian! 👋
hi roman
@@johncitizen8828friendly neighbourhood slob who makes videos about le evil and terrible ruzzia for westerners lmao
romascomodroma appearance, noice
I play drums since 2013 and after seen zach hill I realized that I actually never played drums.
Get going at it
What? Theres nothing technical or amazing about what hes doing here
@@TOGGGAA1 ??? his endurance is incredible
@@cerulean5881 yes hes very good at making just noise
@@TOGGGAA1 The endurance at that speed I'd consider amazing, even if you practice single and double stroke roll, and alternate left right and throw in a double kick it'd still take a few months, grinding at it for someone new, and likely not working on anything else.
Seeing as the vast majority of people in the world can't even do the basic beat at 120 BPM, even less can do this for this amount of time.
1:26 the hardest beat to ever exist simply because it got andy morin to show emotion
Fr haha
you've clearly never seen "guy from death grips loves his job"
This and 1:59 are the best parts
It's sounds like the immigrant song beat just the triplets being played on the mounted tom
@@Picklepucker60000if you watch his leg, the triplets are mostly coming from his kick drum playing doubles and the mounted tom playing singles. just goes to show how insanely fast he is
I like how there are just piles of broken snare drums in the background.
His victims lol.
environmental storytelling
@@Madhijz Lol
He went too hard giggity
Lmao
I cannot overstate how much i fear this man
If that snare drum could speak, humanity would cry
Lmaooo
Guitarist - "now seems like a great time to make sure I'm in tune"
Drummer -
Never seen a drummer break traditional conventions of proper technique as good as Zach hill
Zach hill is a technique
There is no right way to play an instrument.
As a self-taught drummer, I've been playing for over 16 years and this still blows my mind to this day. And to anybody that wants to get some sense as to what's going on here, just go look at the snare beat that starts at 2:11 That is actually like a slow version of what is going on when he plays really fast. It's not just some blastbeat left right left right at high speed, It's like it's own fully musical composition that's completed only with the drums. It's truly incomprehensible, especially to professionally trained drummers.
Fuck man you got anything else? I really like this analysis.
I really like his drumming an all,
But for the most part the fast stuff is conceptually simple. Its fast linear style drumming, sharing rudiments between hand foot combinations. Theres a central focus that hes peppering the different drums over.
I really like his drumming. Its all feel.
I sorta get what you mean, its proper solid to do like drum line stuff or complex jazz, but pro drummers get this I think. They just choose to play different.
Like it's really intense but theres more "notes per second " or however you wanna judge complexity, in having four parts spread between the hands and feet playing complimentary parts.
@@pleasetellmethatyouloveme6922 Seen them all, I still think there is still more info about what Zach is doing that can be extrapolated. JA is great though.
@@pleasetellmethatyouloveme6922 thanks, the dude is a fascinating artist, he is a master of syncopation, to the point it sounds like he's playing polyrhythms. his interview with modern drummer is the best resource to understand his philosophy.
yea, its nowhere near this complex.
thank god, i was starting to worry this wasnt archived
Saaaaame
@aMoral27 truly a god amongst mortal bongo beaters
It's incredible how in the pocket he is while still using more notes than should ever be necessary
Jack Burton ikr
He is in a math rock band, Hella. Imagine how much he’s had to practice for that
@@kaylons he's in a lot more than that
It’s absolutely god like but I wouldn’t call this in the pocket at all
@@Fleetato you have to understand this man's prolific discography, and then you'll understand that this man knows exactly every single thing he's doing and he has decided what the pockets are and where they are located and just how deep they can be. Is it a person who self-taught from 15 and is now nearly 40 this video was made nearly 10 years ago. You talking about a person who has spent more than 8 hours a day almost every day practicing drums from the time they were 15 this person can go slow they can go fast they can go in between and they can time jump around as much as they want fuck I swear to God he can jump through dimensions. You may as well consider him the quantum leaper of Los Angeles
I worked the stage at a club in NYC in 2005 and Zach Hill played with a very bizarre version of Hella. 3 horns, bassist and 2 drummers. His set up was tons of broken cymbals and cheap mismatched drums. He was really pleasant, a nice guy. I setup my mics around his mammoth set and put a drum mat down so his drums wouldn't move. I left my backpack on the stage behind him, at least 3 feet behind him, but at the edge of the drum mat. He played like this vid for 45 mins. At the end, I was striking his gear and the drum mat was soaked with sweat and seeped onto my bag. It was that " haven't showered in a month stink". I had to throw the bag out! Worth it to see him live from 6 feet away!
Oh my god ahaahahahahahh
Why would you throw that out…
@@mcadminbro2139 hahahahaah
with it being zach hill youre lucky it wasnt also soaked in blood
Do u remember anything else from that gig? Couldn't find anything bout it when I searched for it so it must be super rare
1:30 lol I love how the camera guy just starts groovin
camera guy = andy morin aka "guy from death grips"
@@avantchop i heard he loves his job
Peep I heard they get to play loud
alex what are you doing here 😳 i had no idea you were into death grips
Oh hey it’s the analog horror guy! :D
Zach stop
You're gonna get in trouble
His right leg is insane, he’s pulling John Bohnam triplets as fast as his snare
There needs to be a statue of Zach Hill playing drums put in Sacramento when he dies. Man is a myth and a legend.
если её не поставят власти я туда приеду, несмотря ни на что, и организую все. хотя думаю желающие и без меня найдутся, но я выражаю свое согласие твоей идее...
0:01 to 4:01 that fill though!!!!
lol
Death Grips should collaborate with Aphex Twin
that would be legendary
@@tylerdaniels723 Yes it would
Holy fuck that thought has never crossed my mind now I need that
One of his more recent tracks 1st 44 easily sounded like a B Side from government plates or something, their sounds would work well together I think, but DG just don't seem to collab. Why is that?
@@riccardominicozzi8717 i mean they did work with les claypool on more than the fairy and others like lucas abella on bottomless pit
That rhythm at 3:27 is bonkers, he even reacts after like he's impressed. Fucking crazy.
honestly it's not SUPER complicated, especially compared to the other stuff, it's just alternate strokes on the hihat coupled with the kick. kicks fuckin ass tho
I think hes reacting to how the snare comes in when he cracks it that loud, cutting through that loop into the next part of that beat.
my whole life my whole fucking life
MY WHOLE LIFE MY WHOLE FUCKING LIFE
@@abhiklovesbadbitchesyour whole life, your whole fucking life. Your whole life your whole fucking life
Naw he's smiling because he messed up; tried to hit the crash at 3:38 but his upstroke got in the way
The average drummer can burn more calories during a show than a professional soccer player during a game. This guy has no body fat for a reason.
Is It true? Running a soccer field many times is exausting. Im a drummer. There great fat drummers by the way, Eric moore, Aaron Spears, gene hoglan. But there is no fato soccer player.
hi have you heard about cocaine!!!!???
Hugo Rezende drummers dont need to be on a strict diet unlike soccer players who are forced to calculate how many calories they take in to not gain weight
@@hugorezende199 perhaps I misreported, but drummers have incredible endurance and stamina compared to any other musician. They I shouldn't say they beat an average soccer player, but they have a capability of being to their level. www.google.com/amp/s/amp.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/drummers-beat-footballers-in-fitness-levels-28444329.html

His eyes are closed the whole time. He doesn’t wanna look because then his brain would fuck it up trying to process it all. More efficient that way.
Me: can you just calm do-
Zach Hill: HELL NO *continues for 8 hours*
1:14 that piano 🔥
So often we go on TH-cam to look up a drummer, hoping we find a video of them playing as hard as they can at the peak of their abilities. This is the first video I found when I searched Zach Hill, and I am content.
He's not playing as hard as he can. He is just warming up.
He didn’t bleed while drumming so he’s going easy mode here
I hope that drum set was 18+
Hope it gave consent
She Grips the shaft
comedic genius never before seen
Why did I comment this four years ago
For anyone who was wondering, the cymbals are Paiste Giant Beats
Thank you. I know he uses Paiste Cymbals & Tama Drums but wasn’t sure which kind of cymbals by Paiste he was using. This kit looks like it’s made by Pearl or is Pearl knock-off.
What's holding those sticks? Death Grips.
@EATshitanddrinkbleac Hustle bones
dudum tss
ITS DEATH GRIPS
You can really hear the Gmail and the Restraining Orders vibes here
1:57 fire groove
Weasly Hills Extremely out of time
Steve French there are no rules of sound
@@Creaturefiendyo Yes, yes there is.
BurnTheNuance I never signed anything
Math-Rockesque.
his neighbours love him
@Ross Orange really?
Thank you based hitsuji
I keep watching his videos and trying to understand his almost unhuman heel to toe technique
This dude can do double kicks with a single pedal and from sound wise on other shit he’s hit the triplets with a single fucking pedal
I just don’t know how
Supposedly he just rocks his ankle really fucking quick, pretty sure it took him awhile to get to that point
Nah just do drugs
I'll let you know right now, the technique is not as hard as it would seem. I'm only on my third month of drumming, and I have 100% figured out how it works. You just need to activate your calf muscles, I would look into 6-minute calf exercises. Start working out your calves, because again I'm on my third month and I'm already starting to double bass with one pedal. You have to hold your leg upto where the beater isn't digging into the head, but it's like halfway there. Then you need the beater to be further back than normal, and the spring to be as loose as possible. Next start doing calf exercises. when you start activating your caps you can literally pulsate them when you hold your legs in this position. but just understanding the technique of how it works does not give you the years of time and consistent practice required it to get to the level of double and triple basing that Zack can achieve. I'd say it would take quite some time before anyone can reach that, but the actual comprehension of it is not that crazy. It just takes being home all day so that way you can figure out what's going on
You just need to develop calf strength and a feel for the pedal. I don't think any drummers with a good right foot actually use the heel-toe technique. It's a waste of time to learn IMO.
I never bothered to learn heel toe and i can get real fast doubles with single pedal. I use a technique that I think is called "the slide technique" where i hit it at the top of the pedal and then slide my foot down and make another hit quickly after that, can get pretty fast if the pedal is set up right
This man loses his entire body fat in this drum session
Looooool
literally posted about the channel being removed on r/deathgrips same day you uploaded this. big thanks for immortalising this clip
Can you post on the subreddit that the video for 'spread eagle cross the block' is gone please?
Schiz th-cam.com/video/qdanAtozLR8/w-d-xo.html
This guy makes me wanna start learning how to play drums
This man makes me wanna quit drums
do it :))))))))))))))))))))))))
His brain is a calculator
He is in a math rock band after all
Sounds like overdriven recording of downpour hitting the metal roof
i have 11 tabs open of this video and it still sounds like him
1:Open this video
2: Duplicate the tab as many times as you can while playing each one at full volume
3: ???
4: Profit
My wrists are hurting just watching this
And I don't even play drums lol
Legend says that this man never stopped drumming after the video ended. In fact he's still drumming today...
Imagine putting this much effort into your practice just to play for kids in helicopter hats throwing bottles at you
Not quite my tempo
exosfear512 whiplassh
He's playing it in double time swing
what the fuck is your tempo
@@kotopec4978 60 bpm
"No. It's _my_ tempo."
this dude can play aphex twin on analog
Thank you, I was lost without it
I come back to this video every couple months and it’s always like watching it for the first time, THIS MAN IS A GOD
he's on them broward county tictacs
he's on them georgetown geronimos
he's on them nashville nibblers
i like this clip because most 'cuhrazzyy speed drumming' videos are like some professionally trained metal guy w/ 100 drums doing it in a super robotic and rehearsed style but here u can just look at zach's face he does not even know what he is doing before he does it its like he is beaming his conciousness as a waveform out onto the drumkit and trying to speak to us thru it
He is the drumming equivalent to show whats possible with just pure passion to learn something. All self taught.
i'm terrified of this man's drumming skills. and he's only practicing too jesus
they finally bought him a shirt
Teacher: drum role please!
Zach Hill:
this is why zach hill is my favorite drummer of all time
2:18 - I'm starving, bro- _violence resumes_
To be able to stay that consistent for that long!! My hands would cramp within the first thirty seconds of playing!
1:26 camera is like “oh I can vibe to this” and seconds later Zach said “no more of that now”
one of the rarest videos ever
Any drum can become a synth bassline if you hit it frequently enough
I saw Zach perform a solo set at the Breeders ATP in 2010, and it was basically this for 45 minutes. It was insane.
lucky
1:26 bro i'm high af and me n the camera started headbanging at the same time that shit was sick😂😂😂
The projects this guy has pumped out are fucken insane his xtensive catalogue of collaborations absolutely mind blowing. He’s my second favourite drummer of all time both him and john stainier from battles are incredible machines
Gotta love the Stanier appreciation
Clown core zach hill and mike patton need to make an album.
i wanna see zach hill make some stuff with sam gendel definitely
Imagine watching flintstones and the run sound effect is replaced with this
No one is talking about thisss thisss is amazing 1:57
I love how his drum set always sounds like shit
This early footage of Bonzo is amazing
I recommend playing this during your workout set. You’ll be done within 3 minutes
I just bought a full electronic drum kit yesterday, trading in my gaming habit for something more productive. This dude is a huge inspiration for me, along with rdj (even though he isn’t technically a drummer). Just trying to replicate the beats are pretty rough lol snare and bass are doable but when u throw in the complex hi hat whew! Practice makes perfect, I will play at least 2 hrs a day after work.
Edit: I can’t replicate this lol I meant dg tracks and aphex tracks.
Tryyyyyyy n tryyyy
@@eragonandsaphira1843 I’m about a week and a half in. Noticing some improvements and practicing rudiments a lot, I play 3-4 hrs everyday after work. Haven’t touched video games since getting the kit lol.
@@squanchysquanch1840 so how is it like now?
@@skullnumb1532 I play 30 min to an hour daily now. 15 minutes of rudiments at least. Im very consistent with this and I’ve noticed massive improvements over time. Single stroke/double stroke roll, paradiddle (with variation, for example incorporating the kick instead of using both hands) are the 3 main rudiments I practice. I also practice a lot of triplets using my kick to practice fills. I am comfortable playing 1/4 notes 1/8 notes and 16th notes on the hi hat. Very comfortable In 4/4 time or variations of it. Feel like I have decent groove and timing but need more work on incorporating fills. Need to learn some new time signatures.
Overall, I’ve made massive strides and am starting to feel comfortable on the kit. Can’t wait to move into a house so I can buy an acoustic kit. I wish I started playing earlier in life, but still feel like I have plenty of time to master the craft. I’d say I’m starting to get into intermediate skill level.
@@squanchysquanch1840 keep it up bro
I couldnt lift my jaw from the floor. Thank you fred armisen for reminsing me about this drumming god
This man shreds on the drums
Zach Hill is so underrated! He's up there with Neil Peart, Brann Dailor, Herb Alexander and Bonham as some of my favorite drummers
i'm glad you named herb. he's my all time favorite
I feel like I owe this guy a crack rock now
1:26 best moment :D
Gagarin Gagarinovič i love how the camera starts to bob then
Imagine hearing this coming from your neighbor’s house
when the guitarist wrote the drum parts on the computer
legend says if you speed this video up to the point that it is 0.5 seconds long you get the st.anger snare
They told him his whole family would be killed if he stopped drumming

Hope i was of help
its like hes playing the drums so his brain cant have a thought
If the sound of raindrops sounded more like drum hits every time it rained it'd probably sound like a Zach Hill Practice Session
This is just the sample of scooby doo running with cymbals layered on top and some distortion...
Nice try though.
What
@@pumpkin_the_snek think of the noise it makes when Scooby-Doo runs in the old cartoons, then start the video over
@@junkiejackflash I knew what he meant. I just didn't know if he was being serious

Props to the camera man for doing a stellar job and accompanying Zach

Getting an ad before this video is like a warmup
How to be zach hill
1. Have immeasurable talent
2. Book a show
3. Right before show, do 150mg of cocaine
4. Don’t stop playing even if you start bleeding out your hands
i can’t believe tre cool used to be my favorite drummer
。 same
Hey, they’re both two of my favorite drummers.
They are both cool , as is Jimmy Chamberlain, Stephen Morris, Dave groul and Keith Moon .
Tre Cool is still a fucking awesome drummer.
He got pocket
We can even lie bro was fucking tweaking here like shit just sounds that insane to me, always worth a revisit
If classical composers asked what music turns into I would show them this
Bro's a professional next door neighbour
Breathing underwater is way better than seeing in the dark
Bringing People back from the dead is better
zach chill, what do u wnt on ur burrito
his snare sounds soo good
Imagine how much better he would be if his left leg did something too! Reminds me self learning guitar but never using my pinkie finger :(
I'm willing to bet his right shin and calf muscles are noticeably different from that of his left.
This might be the greatest drumming of all-time. Vinnie Colaiuta couldn't fucking dream of playing like this. Granted he couldn't play 90% of Colaiuta's catalog but still.
