Jay Postones - TesseracT - Of Mind: Nocturne 

Ikr

This is too true! Amos and Jay ftmfw!!!!

Yea, knew first Dan *_*

I still only know jay and amos after listening for a few years lol

I know I'm late but how did you read my mind

They're just so darn spooky.

Oh cauz "ghost notes" Lol nice

dethdrummer88 they are incredible live! And yes Jay is super impressive live i was blown away. By the way I Love the Hodge twins photo! Seeing them this upcoming Tuesday in NJ!

Its a chill song what do you expect them to do. I would stare at Jay too

SuburbanDisposal I luv it tho

This groove is next level genius.

Eduardo Artavia had too much energy / adrenaline 😅

JustinPayton the music bends space-time so it's fine

I’d love to be popular enough that this is what’s considered no space to play on. The stage I played on last week was about just enough for everyone to stand right next to each other and stay perfectly still as to not fall off or crash into each other. Some of the biggest spaces I’ve had are about the size of the stage TesseracT is playing on here, if that were every show I’d count myself lucky. Not trying to be negative, and in comparison to stadium rockers this is small, but I just felt like relaying some personal experience.

what?

drumboarder1 I also dig the tone of that floor tom.

drumboarder1 I fuggin love that snare. I might dial back the volume a *hair* but it's sexy as is

What is simple about this? Haha

As good as Jay is, he's not quite on Gavin Harrison's level yet. Not many people in the world are mind you.

Simple? You might wanna look again

its called moon gel. Drummers use it to muffle their drums so they produce less overtones.

lol the singer wasn't that flawless :P

It's called moongel, It dampens the sound.

Yeah, that really confuses me too!

because their music is too beautiful and this makes you forget to headbanger

Because they all stoned out of their minds tripping out😌

They are in the zone and want to hear the heart I'm guessing..

Personally, I find it impossible to get into this band, no matter how hard I try they just put me to sleep. This song certainly isn't changing anything about that.

+specialDFX Yeah some songs are a bit like that, I loved the album 'One' a lot more than the others

+TaCoMaN300 Oh I'm definitely a fan of "puzzle like rhythmic patterns", it's just that this band's version of that bores me to tears.

A lot of people don't move during concerts, why? They may be like me where they'll bop their head, tap their foot, etc. We like to listen/watch. Not go crazy all the time. This isn't really a jumpy/headbanging band. I pay to watch the band not run in circles and push people.

NathanDrums I get that, but they legitimately look bored.

Nicholas McCaslin I believe that was when they opened for Gojira in the US this year, and Gojira crowd came out in DROVES and overwhelmingly cared little about Tesseract, which was a huge shame. I was right up front and saw zero people all the way across singing along or even into the songs like they knew them. (Which they probsbly didn't). It was real awkward, but they still played a great show, and Dan knocked it out of the park.

Have you ever been on a progressive band conzert ? Its a totaly different feeling compared to other metal genres There never is a moshpit etc

thdrknight yea I know it's not as aggressive but I mean those guys are like they're at the fucking opera.

Nicholas McCaslin lel truth

They are amazed... Paralysed

i think you cant dislike his skills... maybe some jerks disliked because of: 3 hate Sabian Cymbals, 5 hate Evans Drum Heads, 2 hate blue stagelights and the rest was drunk and didnt remember they clicked "dislike" :)

valent666 blast beat is overrated 😉

badcrowJC How can something like a blast beat be overrated dumbass? That's like saying guitar bends are overrated fucking piece of shit.

Doesn't really fit here, but that doesn't mean blast beats don't have their place.

MultiEchelon irá a beautiful Song, and its aother pointer of view of drummers's playing

Increased professionality leads to hard decisions. They stick with Dan for quite some time now, I guess he will stay since he left skyharbor to concentrate on his carreer with tesseract... ^^

Funk SC I would also assume that to sing in a band like this, takes a certain level of finesse and ability to find where the harmonies would work best. If you notice, many other progressive metal bands are strictly instrumental for this reason. I'm not saying that this is the definite reason, but I'm assuming so.

Funk SC Ahe was an amazing vocalist and my preferred one over Dan but he couldn't withstand constant touring, his voice wouldn't upkeep throughtout an entire set so they had to let him go

Funk SC you do realize he performs this song better live than Ashe did right? Ashe was SOOOOOO pitchy it made me cringe at times.

plus i read somewhere that ashe wasnt getting along with the band

That's not really true. I think it goes both ways. You won't appreciate Dan's vocals as much if you don't sing, either. Dan is the best vocalist I've ever heard.
