But they literally use drum triggers which have to be timed to a click

@benjitalent 6 месяцев назад

@@suburbanindie most of the samples are no longer than a few seconds long so we have to listen and adjust our tempos as we play. It’s a great feeling when you nail it though.

I used to play their entire first album as a drum warmup. I know those songs backwards and forwards. They're not hard, they're high-energy, and they're simply a blast to play. I always describe the first album as a soundtrack to the longest bar fight in human history. It's so bad ass.

Ben comes across so well, you can tell that he's just a guy living his best life playing drums for the fun of it. No wanky pretentiousness from it, just a guy and his best mate playing music with a bonus of getting paid.

I saw Royal Blood open for Queens of the Stone Age in Toronto around 2018. Don't get me wrong, QOTSA sounded amazing and put on a great show, but Royal Blood were my favourite part. It was the heaviest sound I had ever heard. My ears couldn't reconcile with my eyes only seeing two guys up there. Ben is a fantastic drummer. I can think of few drummers that are that solid no matter what beat is being played.

@bearclash48 6 месяцев назад

“We wanna change up the set don’t wanna make it obvious that’s where the drum solo goes every night” - now this is a live band. Don’t wanna follow a script like so many do. I love it

@ryantobin1007 6 месяцев назад

Ben is an excellent drummer to play a long to. He's clean and his parts sound relatively simple but they have enough spice to them to keep it fun and interesting. He's right that Out of the Black is definitely a song that helps your left hand. One of my favorite drummers and just straight up good dude.

@MrCoolTre 6 месяцев назад

My left hand didn’t work like that until I started playing that song

@MofoMik 6 месяцев назад

Saw them last month in Australia. The sound these 2 guys produce is phenomenal. A few songs into the setlist, the crowd starting chanting "drum solo" and the singer Mike tells Ben to give them what they want, so he rips one out on the spot. Such an awesome show

I've been a Royal Blood fan since I first heard them. Saw them live once in 2018, gonna see them in April again. I gotta say I'm REALLY impressed that the tracks are triggered by Ben and not automatic while playing to a click track. I would have assumed that was the case. This makes my appreciation for this band much bigger. Great video!

One week ago went to the show of them here in Rio de Janeiro, and can say. They are wild, and have a such unique energy. Ben pointed to me and wave his hand tô me at beginning of the show. I really fall for they sound. And knew a bunch of people who is fan from the bottom ❤. Ben, you're amazing.
