Well 1) people in the crowd are taken by their emotions and prone to rushing. 2) there is a delay between what they hear and what the people on stage would hear from them, causing aliasing, which is also a problem marching bands need to overcome. 3) as a whole, are not dedicated to metronome practice.
One of the best sickdrummermagazines documentations I've seen in a while. Nice angles and some stage views for variety. His drumming is so tight and well constructed. Love how the ride gradually starts to spin @4:32. This guy has come a long way since Exoplanet.
hell yea! interesting coincidence it was at 4:32 since 432 hz is the frequency of the universe and this band is extremely Spiritually awake. seems to fit nicely :)
So cool to see a humble and appreciative singer. The band and drummer rock but I just had to say this because almost every lead singer iv see has a massive ego.
We left the fan sound in mix for this one because it is part of the feel of The Contortionist experience. Part II of this will be a bit more drummer centric.
It is two different songs and Joey wanted both. Some of you would watch an 11 minute video, but most would not. The second song is almost ready, so you will get it soon. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Yeah it's two songs, but they flow together like silk man. I just wasn't sure if sickdrummer was going to upload the second half or not is all. It's not the first time I've seen them have footage of multiple songs, but only upload one. Thanks for the video!
Psychedelic porn crumpets. Sick progressive/psychedelic Rock band from Australia. Recommended Songs: buzz, found god in a tomato, cubensis lenses, cornflake and their whole first album in general.
someone please explain to me what's happening rhythmically from 3:37- 3:57? what joey is playing is very straight forward but in contrast with the rest of the music is very confusing, snare is in weird placements. can anyone help?
Inatia Band Official It's actually straight 4/4, with a three-against-four polyrhythm in the bass drum (which is following what the guitars are doing). It sounds a little lopsided because the guitars start that riff on the "and" of beat 1, and the kick supports that. That's why the snare sounds so off-kilter with the rest of the music, even though it's playing on the third beat of every measure.
djent is totally a genre It sounds to me like it's straight 4/4, but with the accents on beats that make it sound really funky. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like the groupings on the hi-hat between the kick and the snare follow a 3-2-3 pattern.
godmetal101 haha hey man, no problem. Sorry for my late response. Atleast you provided me with the time signature which can help me notate it myself. thanks dood
No problem, man! I've been trying to make a cover of this song myself, but there is still a lot for me to woodshed out. And I've recounted that part *again* after hammering it out over and over. It's actually alternating between 4/4 and 5/4. It's really hard to tell with this band unless you listen VERY carefully.
+Dylan Robertson Yeah, it's really his hands that make that rhythm, he's playing a shuffle, but he uses ghost notes on the snare in another drum video of this song, and I think it sounds better using the hats. I'll be uploading my take on this song pretty soon, that was the part that got me.
One of the reason they play to a click is that their music has a tendency to take off tempo wise. If you watch old videos of them playing, the tempos were often times a tad faster than the recording, which kind of ruins the effect of some of their music because it is recorded to such specific tempos. So when they play to a click that the audience can't hear, and they are playing a part that has no drums to keep everyone together, it's just naturally going to fall apart. Not really the audiences fault, nor is the bands, just the situation.
I wonder how many prog fans look down on other people for listening to "simple" music but then you put them in a situation like this and they can't even keep time with a simple 4/4 rhythm lol. Pretty sad.
Their drummer played a massive role to the success of Language album
Nothing worse than when an audience claps to the music and it's not in time!!
Grimz' kul the whitest crowd hahaha
Grimz' kul I was gonna write that xD Great job not losing the tempo haha
Grimz' kul What bugs me is they were clapping to the music off the beat AT THE SAME TIME
Grimz' kul They're just practicing their polyrhythms.
It made me scrung. Haha. Horrible time keepers
That random scream at 2:54 thoughhhhhhh. haha
***** "EEEEEGH"
hahaha god damn i stopped laughing when the song was over. that was so out of the blue
***** hahahaha
***** That got me laughing too. Lol.
***** I work in a lab by myself and I had my earphones in. That part scared the living shit out of me.
This whole album is a classic. Perfect in every way front to back.
omg. when the crowd started clapping off beat i thought i was gonna have a heart attack. how does that even happen.
+TheRadrussian1 It starts with one man, and that man is an asshole.
There is a reason those who clap off beat are in the audience :)

drummers nightmare, an audience of offtempo claps. so annoying
They have in ears in so they don't hear don't hear anything other then the instruments
still nailed it. true skill
They are just testing the drummer
Joey Baca is an epic drummer. Well deserved recognition Sick Drummer Magazine!
Seeing them live May 18th with AAL... So Stoked!!

+trentzpoke432 Amen to that!
underated drummer
This dude is quickly become one of my favorite drummers. Really dig his feel.
Probably the coolest thing to ever come out of Indiana.
Really
The frontman is so cool to the fans in the beginning :D
Nice sound, nice angles, great drumwork! Thankyou Sickdrummer.
Awesome sound on mix! perfect.
Amazing drummer, album, and band! Can't get enough of it!
Amazing band AND drummer!
So cool to see a humble and appreciative singer. The band and drummer rock but I just had to say this because almost every lead singer iv see has a massive ego.

2:50 "UHHHAAAHH" hahah
One of my favorite progressive bands, awesome video and awesome drummer! Hope to see them soon in Cleveland this month!! ^^
Excellent recording of audio.
Idk why, but the handling of the right stick at 4:32 has me in love
great video, he is super solid.
Oooo that fill at 5:36… lovely
The contortionist or tempo. So classy, so powerful
I'm so happy
Why not both parts??? Was really trying to see all that groove!
Not to worry, Language II, in a few weeks.
I was disappointed too!

You are welcome. So, the second song can post next Monday.
I hadn't seen such simple but beautiful creativity in an album for years (sinnce tool). Unless someone can recommend something . I would be pleased

Clapping is not off-beat; it's polyrhythmic clapping !
That run at 5:24 was so smooth.
Anyone know what hats he is using here??????
2:52 NOTICE ME SENPAI
4:17 anyone know what's going on there? looks like a variation of a shuffle.

My bad, I recounted the beat again, it's actually a really fast 5/16 pattern. I wish I could notate it out here.
godmetal101 haha hey man, no problem. Sorry for my late response. Atleast you provided me with the time signature which can help me notate it myself. thanks dood

"Rise in groves / to reclaim the source / UUUAAAGGHHH"
what rudiment is he playing? 4:17
Dylan Robertson I would like to know this too
Dylan Robertson It goes R(R+K)L(R+K)LR(RL)R(RL)RL and repeats
+Ahmed Riad Wait.
That's 10 notes, and the rhythm is in 9.
+Dylan Robertson Yeah, it's really his hands that make that rhythm, he's playing a shuffle, but he uses ghost notes on the snare in another drum video of this song, and I think it sounds better using the hats. I'll be uploading my take on this song pretty soon, that was the part that got me.
Baked Baca's.
Awesome! Lmao! The crowed can't clap on beat!
2:52 scared the fuck out of me
omg those claps were so fucking off!!
I would assume joeys Mix has ABSOLUTELY ZERO house in it. Absolute nightmare.
fucking amazing
Which date / venue was this from? I may have been to this one !
Kansas Revenge 2/14/15 at The Orpheum in Tampa, FL. I was there as well.
claps were so off timing..
I love how progressively foggy it gets
1:12
loooool clapping was so fucking off hahaha
lmfsaaoaoooaa it took me at least a minute to realize that the scream @2:54 wasnt outside my window
yeah shiiiit yeah

Joey baca is an amazing drummer though!
He should have stuck with sabian, those meinls sound terrible.
Jesus his sabians sounded so much better :l
Ahmed Riad for real. meinls are so flat sounding.
1:15 Thank me later
And the audience can't clap on time.. Lmao
I expect that people at prog shows can recognize a beat. *white people claping*
Yet, it's all whites in The Contortionist. So you're attempt at implying whites can't keep a beat is an oxymoron.
So Abysmal.
I wonder how many prog fans look down on other people for listening to "simple" music but then you put them in a situation like this and they can't even keep time with a simple 4/4 rhythm lol. Pretty sad.
expected some brutal stuff. sad.
valent666 In terms of complexity and musicality, this is brutal!
valent666 watch language II: Conspire then. not listening to all of it. sad.
man this was boring
So was your sister, knew I shouldn’t have paid her
@@rippindrummer666 wow so funny haha. You can't pay nothing kid
@ Lucas Rodriguez says the dork with no videos on his channel
i love the huge tool influence mmmm and some tasty drumming i need to check these guys out
Where exactly do you hear Tool? That must be the only progressive bend you're listening to
@@petarpavasovic6333 real and true
I’d say this way more influenced by Cynic than Tool
