Blake’s drumming matched with the disgustingly good sound of his kit is just too freaking good.
I bet he could just stare at a kit and it would sound better. Or blush.
Idk, man. The cymbals and hi-hat should be louder in the mix.
Ever since Colors, each album just builds upon what you've done in the past man. Or perhaps it's more that I have a growing appreciation for your playing as I pick out things I missed on in older albums, which of course leads me to listen to them again to see what else I missed. I think that one can make a pretty sound argument that Blake is one of the most versatile, yet underappreciated drummers alive.
The best sounding drums ever, as is tradition.
and worst vocals
idk it sounds almost too dark, like if was pitched down or something, i don't think it matches btbam style imo
@@anthonydavella8350 Objectively speaking, he's not the best, but he's far from the worst.
Holy christ what a good song!!! EVERY album gets better and better!
Blake and Tomas Haake are the best living metal drummers, in different ways.
Blake it's Jacob who was in a band called Transgression with Ant Pennigton. We went to Mt. Tabor together and went and played shows with each other. I just wanted to say how proud and blown away every time I see you play!!! I have chops my self you heard me plenty of times but thank you sincerely for putting winston salem nc on the map and to see you on the cover of Modern Drummer.... enough said You are a drummers drummer and that comes from a damn good drummer. Keep it up you will go down as a pioneer and one of the greatest drummers of all time!!! Love you guys
Jesus, that snare sound is just delicious.
Those drums sound insane.
LA BEAST on the drums!
"Have a good daaay." -LA Beast
3:39 is some next level shit man!
Juan Burgos iv never seem to much blasting like that on the toms guess he figured y not
Low tom blasting is rad and more metal drummers should use it!
It's awesome how he seamlessly integrates a very prominently jazz technique into such a heavy part. Such a diverse drummer.
Jesus playing awesome drums.
bruh, Blake is a magnificent marvel of a man
I'll take as many of these as I can get. Your drumming is really inspiring.
The patented "Blake Richardson Crash Cymbal Hit Hair Flip". Beautiful stuff man.
What a machine
The live sound is just as good as this holy
Still the best in the game.
Andrew Romanowski Blake is God, don’t forget about Matt garstka tho
matt is the 2nd best drummer thats been in AAL....he is a one trick pony...
how is he a one trick pony?
@@buckfuttler2877 Lmao, what's that "one trick" being crazy talented? If you're referring to his use of rudiments as a one trick pony then you my friend are making a rather foolish statement.
Plus rocking 6+ toms hell yea
@2:17 is the sickest change, simple as hell, but mannnn it hit hard! That fillllllllll
So simple but at the same time so complicated, so good.
New album is killer man! Absolutely amazed by the drumming on this one as well as Coma Ecliptic
The great playing aside, well done with the mix! this sounds phenomenal :)
Fucking amazing! Love this video, audio, song, Blake Richardson, BTBAM, LIFE
This is just so tasty, and I'm not even talking about the music. There's a lot of potential for these high res captures of live moments. Hell I'd buy a straight up BLU-RU of stuff like this. Now I shall focus and listen ^^
This is flawless.
3:38 that part... I mean damn I hate him... I've tried... but can't get it down, let alone as elegantly and seamlessly as him
I really don't think anyone can. Alternating toms and kicks at that speed that cleanly is insane
goddang
its like an alternating blast beat, but it is the toms instead of the snare, hard but not superhuman though
If you look closely, he's moving his legs as if he were kicking twice as fast as he's hitting the tom, but he probably has one leg off the pedal so that only the off beat kicks actually hit the drum.
blastbeats on the stand tom 👌
That’s a ‘Jamie King snare sound’ if I’ve ever hear one.
Reminds me a lot of the sound he achieved on the Contortionists' last record
Shut up.
pure yes
This is so sick man. Loved the mixing too!
god this is so clean and tasteful. love this album!
The blues type vid u did was cool with badassness throughout,However this is where u tear shit up MR BLAKE!!!Thank You for sharing!!!
Amazing!!. More videos of him like this one please!!!
this is so pure
This is a straight up play through hell yea
I cannot get enough of this new album. You guys effing killed it when you came through Portland! Love it
Oh hell yeah dude
Dear lawd that was amazing.
Great stuff here, you earned your sub - thanks for sharing your extraoirdinary skills and music!
Your show in Asheville, NC was amazing!!
the fact that you play this so close to the album is amazing. you're the man (been leaving that comment on your posts randomly for years)
Masterful work sir
I can’t get enough of this video. I want one for Blot.
There is one and it’s awesome
one of the best drummers alive now that Neil Peart has been sacrificed ..
He's good but hardly the best.
@@thehighhopes5336 no one cares about your $.02.
That's pretty brutal
Hey man SUPER late message to you mate. I literally spent my high school after school listening to BTBAM. And yeah I’m sure ya hear that everyday. But I also started drumming, a year prior. You kept it interesting, and mysterious for years! Just wanted to say, you will never truly understand how much you influence and carry others through just with playing what you play and how you play it. And the sound on this video is amazing!
Here we go again with "Mr.TheShitNobodyElseIsPlaying."
STAND. STILL.
ty senpai
Never clicked on a video so damn fast!
Unbelievable as always Blake. If you have the time, could you give us a gear run down for this video? Really curious of what cymbals you’re using lately!
7 dislikes? 7 people must not like music
This was fantastic as always but I have to be brutally honest, the camerawork was really really distracting. I know this film style is super meta right now but recording a guy drumming isn't a great time to try out an artistic style. Everyone who watches this video is just wanting to watch Blake play, not check out cinematography. I'm prone to it as well, but sometimes you just gotta put your camerawork skills on the back burner and focus on providing clear easy to follow shots to convey information in the best possible way. Just like drumming.
That'd be my bad dude, and I definitely agree to a certain extent. Truth be told, I was supposed to film this on a different camera/lens all together until about an hour beforehand and just sort of had to wing it on an unfamiliar setup. Sorry some of the fills are cut off - honestly though I think it's for the best, if I captured everything perfectly there would have to be a warning before the video for how dangerously gnarly his playing is!
I give the original poster a thumbs up cause its a general great point. But you happened to catch me right in the moment of embracing this type of cinematography. I was actually watching thinking, "This is cool. I haven't seen it like this before." But hey I might hate it tomorrow. So what? Bravo man. Bravo also to the BTBAM guys.@@erezbader
I know man, plus the price, right?
Blake - amazing as per usual . . . . TOMMY WHY YOU SO PITCHY??
On clean, unfortunately Tommy has always struggled a bit :/
Tommy's never been really good on his cleans, you know?! He evolved through the Parallaxes (in Parallax II, we can really call him a singer), but after some fray in the Parallax 2 tour, he started using a more nasal and pitchy clean singing to preserve his voice (he even changed his growls to a less intense approach).
In the Colors and Great Misdirect's anniversary gigs, he lets himself looser, tho.
Don't tell Paul, but that intro and outro sound like "December" by Collective Soul. Tawn yaw headddd now baby just spin meeeee out. Oh, and you're the most creative drummer to ever walk the earth. Directly next to Danny Carey.
So glad I’m not the only one that hears the collective soul thing haha, and agreed on his creativity!
Haha I always hear that tune as well.
except blake knows more than one speed, unlike danny...
Need moar headbangin from the camera guy!! Great video and perfect as always
How are they so clean live!?
Holy shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. So Blake, does your drum tech hate you?
I love his casual hair flip. It's technique for him lol
What is this roof ?
Just saw you guys in Portland, Oregon last week, fucking love your love sets soooo much. I'm sorry for all the assholes that were constantly throwing stuff at you guys. I especially enjoyed when you and Tommy switched spots and jammed out, good fun.
Phat flam city
Blake makes it look easy, When did he stop using a double bass kit?
Did you really mix the audio? It sounds great man
Surveil He sounded this good live when I saw them
The cymbals could have been a little bit more highlighted in the mix...
Crazy how on future sequence he basically only plays on a 5 piece n double pedal
the studio recorded one?
Buck Futtler the record and even the impending tours afterwards. There’s a video of him playing obfuscation, which was recorded on an 8 piece, on a 5 piece.
Dude that floor tom groove is amazing. How the hell did you come up with that one?
If I remember correctly, he came up with that as an alternative for not being able to do really crazy 32nd note runs on the double bass very cleanly anymore. His new method is even crazier~
Squonk does this imply that the double bass is actually 16th notes, and the floor tom is 32nd notes? Asking for a friend...and maybe myself.
He's alternating between the floor tom (FT), left kick (LK) and right kick (RK), like so: FT LK FT RK. If you count in 4/4, the snare is playing on 3, and the FT/LK/RK pattern is 16th note triplets (24 notes per bar). That's my interpretation!
I air drum the shit out of this when I'm driving, pissing off everyone as I randomly speed up and slow down while I'm doing double bass
Jajaajjajajajaj
SAAAAAMEEEE
What are the sizes of your kit man?
Check out their "rigged" video over on the Gear Gods channel, Blake talks about his whole kit there!
Tama Starclassic Bubinga, 8, 10,12 (I think the racks are all hyper drive depths so 6-7 inch depths, If I'm not mistaken),14x14 floor, 16 (14 depth I think?) floor ,20 gong. 22x14 inch kick. Tama Bell Brass Snare 6.5x14. Remo Emperor heads on toms, PS 77 on the snare (which is perfect for any loud somewhat ringy metal snare), and Powersonic head on the kick drum.
Thank you everybody much appreciated
3:19 🤤
Why the fuck does the camera guy keep moving around???.....That was a great video of his back and two light stands...
Why is the cameraman moving right and left so much :X
Typically i'd laugh at a man in skinny jeans... But, Blake is no man and a mere mortal like myself cannot shall never utter such words against a God.
Blake u are the next Mangini but better👍🏼
Down here in Charlotte nc hope to see y’all soon
Looks like Blake needed more toms
The jeans are giving me anxiety
Can't contain the thicc
maybe we should make a new channel THICCDRUMMER
camera man will think twice before getting that close to your china
*double bass is overrated, so let's just fake it with floor tom*
yes, i know why he didn't really abuse double bass anymore like he used to
He's never abused double bass. Blake always used the right amount of them for the music he plays - though he learned to fill his drumming with other features as well.
The point is that BTBAM's music is more homogeneous (some might say "simple") now than that flamboyant extravaganza they used to play before. Compare Blot and The Grid (the long, epic tracks from Automata) to literally any other of their epics, like White Walls, Swim to the Moon and even Silent Flight Parliament: the band sound simpler now, and Blakey just aims to find his space in there, you know?!
I think Mike portnoy wishes he was blake richardson 🤣
