Hey guys, since everyone is asking about the ending, here's the explanation: As you know, i always add a song that starts with my last snare note, however, this one had a huge copyright claim and youtube wanted to block the video on half the world (Warner doesn't forgive) So i had to replace the song with a copyright free one AFTER posting the video to not waste the views it already had. I'm so sorry but this is the best i could do since im out touring currently and i didn't have time to manage this issue properly. My sincere apologies for the wacky result, hope you enjoyed it as much as you could!
wow great explanation! i just know that you can do that. but the bottom of the description of this video there is music that used in this video titled Shoop. is it because the song u used in this video? and is it copystriked this video tho? btw the most clean bleed cover i ever heard, god skills! * its change to immortal by neffex, and theres sound at the end its kinda weird
It’s all good man. You coulda replied “Ending by Copyright BS” and we would’ve understood. 😏 Amazing as always bro. Love seeing your new covers BTW. Quality is off the charts.
The might have to cycle it through the set list only every few weeks or so, as it obviously takes tomas so much energy to do it. Or maybe they don't play it at all. That would suck. :(@@haehne
This is a super small detail but I fucking love it. At 2:18 you switch the kick drum pattern to the way that Thomas did it on the live version as opposed to sticking with the album version where he just plays the same thing again. Those extra little kicks in the middle make all the difference in terms of difficulty and heaviness. Absolutely fantastic attention to detail.
You absolutely nail the most important part about Haake's playing: the GROOVE. It's not just about the technical shit, but that deep pocket feel between the riding hand and those little ghost notes on the snare. INSANE cover.
You can absolutely see him go right into the pocket - that was the first thing I thought about while watching this. This man is just four independent limbs. He destroyed the song. And I reckon he could have even added fills and flair if he wanted to. Sticking to the song as played was absolutely a choice.
Once you hear this bass pattern it becomes your entire personality for weeks. Dancing on my damn spine. And this is just awesome as we knew it would be.
Been trying to fully figure out the just the kick patterns for the song using my hands while on cardio equipment and it's consuming me, haven't even gotten it close to right. I'm technically capable of all their stuff and almost specialize in polyrhythms, but for the life of me I can't memorize the accents. I'm getting closer but it took the man himself six months after he wrote it and mapped it, per legend
@@472zothansangachawngthu7 It’s so clearly all triggers. This guy overuses them to a really painful degree - like at the point of wondering why he wouldn’t just buy an electric kit.
@@davidlabossiere1905 Live? Sure. My point is that this guy is one of the few people who probably literally doesn’t need to rely on triggers to get the bass drum to sound clear.
I was a roadie for meshuggah here in sweden at some gigs and one day I asked Haake how the f*** he comes up with the messed up rythms. He didnt answer but stuck out his tongue and showed a little tiny bit of acid 😁
I mean.. no one realizing that he played it with his left foot leading ??? That's just insane.... congrats man you keep blowing my mind after each vids, huge inspiration !
Looks like for the 3 and 5 herta’s he does left foot lead and the rest is right foot led. Even more impressive when you realize he’s switching the lead foot between sections. Dedication to drums right there
Yep just watched this for the first time and was like wut?! He's got his heel down on the right side pedal - which I imagine is already a lot harder for a song like this to get the power needed; my former teacher could get a lot of power with his heel down strokes but I can only use it for softer playing. And then it looks like he's filling in the faster notes of the herta with the left. Can't tell if he's actually starting the hertas with his left foot? If so that would be even more difficult! I can only play Bleed style hertas on the bass drum with single strokes, like I would if playing it with my hands. It feels more natural for me to just speed up a heel up R - L single stroke on my feet for the faster notes of the herta rather than do some more complex techniques like heel-toe or patterns such as using double strokes. Although just 'brute forcing' it like that I can't get that much speed or endurance out of it, and it falls apart if I try even a simple riding pattern over the top with my hands. So it's pretty clear how physically demanding Bleed is to play on the drums, yet El Estepario does it with incredible accuracy and power. It's amazing to see how he keeps improving his ability and especially impressive when he's well known for using cool tricks/techniques to get a double pedal sound out of a single pedal, yet absolutely crushes one of the most difficult double pedal songs there is.
@@bigusmusic This is what Thomas Haake does too, and he had to *really* work with his drumming to make this one even happen. Some say five months, some say six, others say it took him as long as the rest of the album combined. That said, one thing is to play it - how they come up with this stuff is beyond me.
That’s crazy how y’all as drummers know how his feet are moving and everything. I barely saw his leg at all in this video, but admittedly, I am not a drummer 😅
Beauty of meshuggah is that it sounds simple but the poly rhythm structure makes it almost impossible to remember to a T which has you guessing no matter how many times you listen to it.
Thank you for making sure the ghost notes are audible! They are a huge bonus for me. I also enjoy the resonance and tone of your floor tom. I wish my drums sounded like that. Time to go shopping again :(
I was wondering about that. I wasn't sure if he added those or not. I don't recall ghost notes on the album version. I'll have to go back and listen to it again.
@@GlassThirdEye they're barely audible on the album iirc but if you watch Haake play it live he's all in on the ghost notes on almost every song he played (I assume to alleviate the boredom of playing something so easy, to him)
@@lewiji The ghost notes were kind of distracting for me. Would have rather heard more (and seen more) of the bass drum and quarter notes on the HH/china since that's more of an emphasis for Haake / Meshuggah. Going to see them tomorrow in Denver!
FREAKIN' SPOT ON, AS ALWAYS! RESPECT! Trippy hearing those Ghost notes on the snare are coming through the mix way more than Haake's/Meshuggah's recordings... Great job dude!
The only video I've seen of you so far where you actually have to concentrate and don't just absolutely murder the song, lol. You're a beast dude. Keep it up!
I’ve been wondering for some time now if he would go at this one. This song has gained some serious notoriety in drum community because of that kick line obviously. Needless to say this is a home run.
@@daffyshakilfur3563 It is indeed cool to see so many skilled musicians analyzing/explaining it, playing it, and having their minds blown by it these days.
Sure it sounds like a luke-warm idea and maybe isn't super exciting.. but it's sexy to drummers because THEY know how tough it is to play all the way through this song. It's hard to play a 4/4 2+4 pattern with that herta pattern just straight through no tricks no meter change no changes in the groove... No shifting of which partial the herta falls on.. Hertas on the bass over even a simple eighth note groove is not exactly elementary. It takes a lot of fucking practice... And if you didn't take the time to hammer out your rhythm and sticking and rudiment fundamentals and in the 'right' way (can mean lots of things).... You will basically have to learn how to play drums again from the ground up. Ask Thomas Haake (y'know the guy)... And he will basically say the same thing.. This song gets the props it deserves from the drum community.
Bleed was so hard, the song was almost cut from the album, thank God the drummer was able to finally lock it down and play it. (Congrats on Bleeds drummer, that guy is a beast).
Man you really do always find the coolest ways to elevate even the most complex songs. It’s the little things with this one but it’s definitely enough to notice. Absolutely on another level
He uses the snare like another hi-hat in the main riff. I've never noticed that in the live performances. No wonder that time signature is a nightmare.
Apart from your insane skills, you gotta admit that Haake's deliberate clean and 'simple' handwork on Bleed is part of the heaviness and brilliance. You can hear this now, when you add ghost notes and extra fills, it becomes more and more a boring heavy metal song. I think drummers like Haake and Elliot Hoffman etc, are so great because they know exactly what is needed to create something new. It sounds like they are not bothered by ego... But again, love your work, channel, video's. You are an inspiration. Keep 'm coming.
If you watch the Meshuggah Bleed live drum cam video, you can see that Haake is playing ghost notes on the snare drum almost constantly. They're just hard to hear because they're, you know, ghosted.
@@mr.z9609 i know. saw 'm last month live again. But. like you say, you can barely hear 'm. Here they are much louder and tmho it makes the song messy... anyway.
This is SO next level. Like others have said, it's technically fantastic AND has the groove. For new drummers - notice how still EES's torso is while playing - balanced and still. Also notice he's not beating the drums like they owe him money. Limited arm movement, and mostly wrists/fingers. Spotless technique.
You know its so hard .. when he’s struggling to do it correctly when normally he overdoes them to show you can add more for this it honestly just .. magic the way it was written..
I imagine your legs Herta after that. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 Appreciate being able to hear the ghost notes on snare in your recording, I didn’t fully appreciate all the extra snare going on in original ❤
I think it's the first time I see a bleed cover as tight... and the first time I see El Estepario that concentrated ! How many takes to get this result?
I've never seen anyone play this leading left foot. I don't know if that's the way you normally do your doublebass, but it's very impressive! EDIT: I might have been wrong, actually. I think the bouncing motion of the left foot threw me off. Watching his Instagram video playing on the TV (mental), I think this is actually leading right foot. But then in the later section, when the hertas are broken up slightly it looks like left foot lead again. I'm so confused!
he's right food leading, he's just playing flat footed with his right foot, the fact that the left foot is playing heel up could fool you when he lifts his foot on the 1 to prepare for the second stroke, but he's definitely leading right foot
@@jsraudio surely not though, because the left foot is playing the double to make the herta while the right is staying steady? It's the opposite of how Tomas does it and he leads right.
@@jsraudio I had to look closely but I believe he's right, I think he's leading with the left foot for most of the song. I'd be interested to know why and also why he's playing the right foot with the heel down when leading with the left.
@@JeanDenisCote I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me at first as well haha, this absolutely mad bastard is left-foot leading it XD In terms of the different foot positions, it'll be a balance/ergonomics/technique thing. If you watch a foot cam of Haake playing the song, you'll notice his right ankle and leg are angled higher than the left to accomodate the double whereas the left is lower and using a fuller leg motion to fill the notes inbetween. This dude probably thought to push it a little more extreme on the off foot with a shin workout and keep the motion all heel down instead, again, mad bastard :P
One hand ? :D Joking. You see this shit is difficult, when you see once in a lifetime this guy with a fully serious and concentrated face. Amazing job man.
The one song that I've attempted to learn countless times but never managed to master. In my opinion, anybody who can play this perfectly can confidently say that they've mastered the double bass pedals.
Great job. Those hats and that stack cymbal sound superb. Also you're right hand was moving so fast it looked like 14 sticks in a rainbow during the chorus. RESPECT.
All those different rhythms at the same time make this piece not only sound like nothing else, but also you look otherworldly, when you play it - all limbs moving in different tempos :D
Damn…. The fact that you were mostly playing to the track and didn’t have a bunch of cool stick tricks and whatnot truly shows the technical difficulty of this song. Well fucking done man. Just amazing work.
Pretty interesting that your right foot isn’t doing much heel toe, and just sits on the heal while your left is going nuts. Awesome playing, love your videos
Honestly this isnt even one on meshuggahs top 5 hardest to play on drums imo. Ive been diving deep into them for the last year and a half. After learning some of the songs on drums including this one i can honestly tell you that the only 2 things that make this song a pain in the ass. #1 the rhythms in the middle section and solo, #2 the speed. It took me 3months to finally play this song through without my legs getting tired or too tense. I think there are a few tracks off of chaosphere that top this song. Even the song future breed machine is harder than this one in my opinion.
Saw rhe shorts with single pedal and thought: well he is avoiding the nasty 16th with the bass drum! Turns out he is not!!! Insanly good and precise drumming! Love it!!!
@@plagueburial Yea, but not so loud. Of course it's personal preference but in my opinion the snare lacks the buzz from the snares, there is none which makes it sound bland IMO
You know the song is demanding when this drumming monster has that look of intense concentration on his face! Incredible job. And just another example of the greatness of Tomas Haakes drumming.
This particular track is just so melodically fast paced in a slow rhythmic timing that is essentially quiet medative. Fantastic cover mate, think you nailed it. 🤟🏻🤪✊🏻
This kind of tempos turn drummers into machines, clockwork machines. I remember Messhugah releasing some kind of YT contest related to this song. I'm not even sure if they enjoy playing it live 😂. Complex AF.
Watching you play is motivating even though I'm not a percussionist. It's like when I saw a DVD of Led Zepellin and saw Jimmy Paige play for the first time. Incredible.
Hey guys, since everyone is asking about the ending, here's the explanation:
As you know, i always add a song that starts with my last snare note, however, this one had a huge copyright claim and youtube
wanted to block the video on half the world (Warner doesn't forgive) So i had to replace the song with a copyright free one AFTER posting the

Make sens! Thanks bro!
you know the Song Is hard af when he Is not overplaying it
hahahahahahahahaahhah
No jokes, no playing around, just focused. That's intimidating... Imagine how hard must be... jesus
My thoughts exactly😂
he actually had a video where he is overplaying it. there is nothing difficult for this guy
There is hardly any room for improvisation during the song.
Imagine playing this live, on tour, 1.5 hour set while being 50 years old - that's Tomas.
saw them live 2 months ago, they didn't have bleed on their setlist... ;) age is taking its toll...
Tomas truly is a fucking beast.
The might have to cycle it through the set list only every few weeks or so, as it obviously takes tomas so much energy to do it. Or maybe they don't play it at all. That would suck. :(@@haehne

I've never seen anyone play this leading left foot. I don't know if that's the way you normally do your doublebass, but it's very impressive!
EDIT: I might have been wrong, actually. I think the bouncing motion of the left foot threw me off. Watching his Instagram video playing on the TV (mental), I think this is actually leading right foot. But then in the later section, when the hertas are broken up slightly it looks like left foot lead again. I'm so confused!
he's right food leading, he's just playing flat footed with his right foot, the fact that the left foot is playing heel up could fool you when he lifts his foot on the 1 to prepare for the second stroke, but he's definitely leading right foot
@@jsraudio surely not though, because the left foot is playing the double to make the herta while the right is staying steady?
It's the opposite of how Tomas does it and he leads right.
@@jsraudio I had to look closely but I believe he's right, I think he's leading with the left foot for most of the song. I'd be interested to know why and also why he's playing the right foot with the heel down when leading with the left.
@@JeanDenisCote I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me at first as well haha, this absolutely mad bastard is left-foot leading it XD
In terms of the different foot positions, it'll be a balance/ergonomics/technique thing. If you watch a foot cam of Haake playing the song, you'll notice his right ankle and leg are angled higher than the left to accomodate the double whereas the left is lower and using a fuller leg motion to fill the notes inbetween. This dude probably thought to push it a little more extreme on the off foot with a shin workout and keep the motion all heel down instead, again, mad bastard :P
I noticed that too. Absolute madness!
One hand ? :D Joking. You see this shit is difficult, when you see once in a lifetime this guy with a fully serious and concentrated face. Amazing job man.
Con ganas de ver este trallazo, de momento la cover de Troy Wright es insuperable..., a tope ESTEPARIO!💪
MADNESS, can't keep up with the one foot that is heel down then the left foot doing the sliding. Just absolute madness!
Let's gooooo!!!!!! Huge fan, since the beginning! Was waiting for this cover. You're too good to not cover this.
This dude is so underrated one of the best drummers ive ever seen FR 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏
The one song that I've attempted to learn countless times but never managed to master. In my opinion, anybody who can play this perfectly can confidently say that they've mastered the double bass pedals.
Whenever I see another Bleed cover I grab myself a coffee and come back to this video to appreciate the excellent job you did with those snare notes.
Siii grande estepario
Mis 2 canciones favoritas de messugah sos un grande bro
Great job. Those hats and that stack cymbal sound superb. Also you're right hand was moving so fast it looked like 14 sticks in a rainbow during the chorus.
RESPECT.
This is amazing! I can’t wait till you cover some Pantera!
What energy men 😮❤
Самое чистое и расслабленное исполнение что я слышал, жаль не до конца!
All those different rhythms at the same time make this piece not only sound like nothing else, but also you look otherworldly, when you play it - all limbs moving in different tempos :D
Muy bueno, no quedan palabras para contar el gran y duro trabajo que estas haciendo, sigue asi que vas por muy buen camino bro.
Damn…. The fact that you were mostly playing to the track and didn’t have a bunch of cool stick tricks and whatnot truly shows the technical difficulty of this song. Well fucking done man. Just amazing work.
This double bass line is mind blowing
Single pedal.
SINGLE PEDAL!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🫶🤘🤘🤘
I love the ghost notes he added
Killer snare work! I loved the way you had it way up in the mix so we could hear all the lighter notes.
Pretty interesting that your right foot isn’t doing much heel toe, and just sits on the heal while your left is going nuts. Awesome playing, love your videos
So how do you feel this song ranks in the “hardest songs you’ve ever learned” category? Would love your opinion. Great job!
Did you notice he leads with both feet at different points too!? Insane
@@CLIFTYPOPS yes bro it’s wild
Honestly this isnt even one on meshuggahs top 5 hardest to play on drums imo. Ive been diving deep into them for the last year and a half. After learning some of the songs on drums including this one i can honestly tell you that the only 2 things that make this song a pain in the ass. #1 the rhythms in the middle section and solo, #2 the speed. It took me 3months to finally play this song through without my legs getting tired or too tense. I think there are a few tracks off of chaosphere that top this song. Even the song future breed machine is harder than this one in my opinion.
Saw rhe shorts with single pedal and thought: well he is avoiding the nasty 16th with the bass drum! Turns out he is not!!! Insanly good and precise drumming! Love it!!!
I'm writing this comment before the video is uploaded, but i can already tell that this is one of the best cover i've ever heard.
I've heard a load of covers for this song and this one seems to stand out as the most compelling!!!
First I've seen of your channel. This song and you go hard. Incredible drumming skills
When you took your hat off after the song, it had no sweat. You are a king
Sabes cuando la cancion es dificil porque no mete chops a todo jajaja. Muy buen cover.
I'm fascinated by the right-heel down left-heel up technique you're using. I never thought about it but that seems really efficient.
Next, one handed
Not a big fan of those ghost notes but that was epic, especially that meaty kick sound :]
The ghost notes are in the song, though.
@@plagueburial Yea, but not so loud. Of course it's personal preference but in my opinion the snare lacks the buzz from the snares, there is none which makes it sound bland IMO
You know the song is demanding when this drumming monster has that look of intense concentration on his face! Incredible job. And just another example of the greatness of Tomas Haakes drumming.
You didn't finish the song! >:(
This particular track is just so melodically fast paced in a slow rhythmic timing that is essentially quiet medative.
Fantastic cover mate, think you nailed it. 🤟🏻🤪✊🏻
That was a wierd end
Look at his ig. There used to be a song perfectly timed with the ending but it got claimed and he had to remove it.
Yeah I agree
@@marcosarteaga5538 ahhh. Thanks. That makes sense
With that beard you would fit right in with todays Meshuggah members look! 👌 Awesome playing!!
Its crazy to hear the ghostnotes so clearly. Got a blast beaty feel
This song is absolutely insane to play. Great job. 🔥👌🏻
This drum groove is fucking fascinating to me. Every time. We should blast this shit into deep space.
Im amazed by the dynamics you are always able to achieve with just 1 snare and 1 floor tom, absolutely incredible and an amazing cover.
Despite his other videos. There is no fooling around just pure concentration to cover Haake drums.
Kudos to you sir for this excellent performance!
Just OUTSTANDING! I Love it. Thank you 🤟.
My dude just looks so composed smashing through that.
my feet are burning just watching this
Man, I found you on TikTok. Seen and met many drummers. You sir, are a God at the drums. So relaxed...
This kind of tempos turn drummers into machines, clockwork machines. I remember Messhugah releasing some kind of YT contest related to this song. I'm not even sure if they enjoy playing it live 😂. Complex AF.
Never in my wildest dreams could I ever have that kind of foot control on the double. That's absolutely insane, my friend.
I come here every time I want to listen to this song. It's mixed much better imo with more emphasis on the low end compared to the original version.
Cuanta concentración, excelente trabajo, la teoría de las 10.000 horas hecha persona. Felicitaciones!
Watching you play is motivating even though I'm not a percussionist. It's like when I saw a DVD of Led Zepellin and saw Jimmy Paige play for the first time. Incredible.
