indeed. considering how Garrett loves cymbal play, out of all "extreme metal drummers", Darkside seems like THE one to watch for him, obviously Exercises V
Been waiting for this reaction! To see more of what he's capable of in a totally different aspect, check out Moon or Bonneville! They're both incredibly tasteful and dynamic
That supersonic half time shuffle, and all the polyrithmic stuff... I'd still prefer Moon, though, just to see him count the insanity that is the verse
I've been asking for Baard. I've been waiting on Baard. I want to talk more about Baard. But I'm glad you are now exposed to one of the best of our new generation.
*lays back and floats down the river* YES. this comment is the realest shit. Baard is one of if not in the top of the most unique players doing it in rock right now I
Destrodooomocculta I gave the suggestion I wanted personally because it’s one of my favorite playthroughs. Become a Patreon and you can make your own suggestion.
@@jen.g. thats fine. And im glad that for at least its worth , he did get to see the man play, Personal preferences aside. Now if you took offense because i shared my opinion on your buck you spent , well im sorry its the internet and i have bad news for you if my mild comment upset you. Have a better night.
To anyone who says I picked the wrong song, I gave Garrett options and he wanted my personal suggestion, so I gave it. Any Baard playthrough is worth a watch, but this one tops the list for me personally. 🤷♀️ Thanks, Garrett! This made my day.
Maybe i missed it, but i think it could have been mentioned that the drums parts in this song appears (to me) to be built "rewindly". For instance, accents are kind of "delayed", toms are runed from right to left, ...
You should for sure. Their music is just incredible, warm and full of emotions. Really great musicians. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B-XnBAvmqhE.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RXRm_h2hBRI.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nAymiEANito.html
About fucking time!!!! Worth the wait. Baard is an insanely underrated musician, and writes drums in such an inspiring way truly a musical drummer. You should see his other play thriughs.
If I may add Third Law, the first riff is insane (it's 15/16) and later in the song he plays the 15/16 riff over a 4/4 backbeat, that's some nasty polyrhythm
@@Mr.McGillicuddy Meh. Not my favorite part tbh. I've never liked Emperor, and I like Ihsahn's stuff in spite of his shrill screaming, not because of it.
@@MFKR696 meh, they've been on a steady decline since The Congregation. they still had a couple of decent songs on Malina, but this last one is a snoozefest of epic proportions. funny thing, i know of them because of the gf, and she hates the 2 last ones even more than i do :D (she's a huge Ihsahn fan and doesn't care about Emperor, and i'm kinda the opposite... though not really [big early Emperor fan, don't care about their later stuff, i like early Ihsahn while later on he kinda bores me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯])
Baard is a risk taker. I appreciate the hell out of that. And you were dead right about how hard it is to keep that double bass thing going and keeping everything in time. Baard has some other stuff that is more complex and definitely cleaner, but hey - he didn’t have to put the video out there like that and he did. I appreciate what he does with Leprous and also with Rendezvous Point.
I'd recommend doing a video like this, with some material of The Aristocrats. Get It Like That (Live in Tokyo) is a really nice one. Instrumental rock/fusion/prog, with a lot of humour in it.
I saw Leprous a year ago in NYC. The sold out crowd was chanting Baard’s name. It was pretty amazing to see him getting the recognition he truly deserves.
Dude, it was driving me NUTS! He's a fantastic drummer, but his bad technique drives me fucking nuts... he only does open, uncontrolled doubles, or kicks his elbow out to try and get a bounce...
@@therealshug If his technique is so bad, then why is he able to play stuff that most of us can't with power, dynamics AND groove? If you can say what you wanna say on the kit then your technique is fine and Baard just happens to be saying some seriously cool shit! Close your eyes and just LISTEN and then tell us the guy has bad technique xD
This guy is one of my faves of all time (I'm a bassist). His snare+hihat intonation work are of the chart. Also, the dude toures with Gaahl's Wyrd so he can play plain old black metal speed as well...
Honestly dude, Aric Improta. It’s a long video, but blur lights in the videodrome, is the most incredible percussive display incorporating electronic samples so perfectly. Please dude, react to that incredible piece of music
@I Am Me definitely agree with you there. Saw archspire in toronto last year and while its entertaining and flashy to watch him, theres nothing really that amazing about his playing. Just smashes away on all his broken cymbals as fast as he can lol. I prefer hard hitting and thought out writing, think it just comes with the genre for the most part though
Dave Weckl is the only percussionist I've seen in concert, around 25 years ago with his band at the Memphis Drum Shop. Transposing the goofy "oh shit" moment on to him gives me lul.
Saw Leprous live a few weeks ago while they were touring with The Ocean. They sound flawless live. Crowd age ranged from 18 to 60 (by my best guess) and there was no crazy mosh pit or anything, just 100ish people rocking out to good music. Kinda feel bad they flew all the way from Norway for such a small crowd. Tickets were only like $20 too. Zero chance they made money. Baard is now bald and dude is only like 1% body fat. I'm not surprised after seeing him live either, dude has got to be one of the busiest drummers I've ever seen. He uses every ounce of his entire kit and is always moving all over the place.
Really cool to see this given that I JUST started listening to Leprous this last week. Really good band, and the Kolstad is definitely the standout so far.
Even if you don't make a video on it, You should really check out Baard play illuminate. The whole song is based around this amazing shuffle groove, With some neat modulations, and feelings all throughout !
So glad you finally checked Baard. One of the most talented, technical and creative drummer of current's Metal/Rock scene. I was expectinb more analysis and comments, but still I can see that you emjoy it and are impressed so that's enough for me ;) Please come back to Baard soon, there are no songs of him where the drumming is the same: Illuminate is so technical, groovy, and tasteful at the same time you would really dig it.
He's definitely a drummer that lays down polyrhythmic/ syncopative/ hemiola grooves with a solid hold onto the back beat--he's always in the pocket. I think that's a better representation of this amazing drummer. Please, check out his other play throughs.
I hope, you and your family are better! I think, I've already said that, but your channel is the only reaction channel I have subscribed and watch. I like, how you comment other drummers' work (I'm not a drummer myself, btw), and I like your personality. Don't know why... 😂 All the best!
I love fuck ups in performances. To this day my favorite and most memorable live gig was of a local band where the guitar player broke a string mid song and just yanked it out and kept on playing. Adds a human element, as well as a special something that makes it stand out from all the other "perfect" gigs.
Saw this giy live in his Dj&Drums project. They played for 1 hour, and during that time, he managed to break one or two sticks, so he plays REALLY HARD. I'm not surprised his cymbals are fucked lmao
saw tool in 94 and danny carey lost a stick at that show. it bounced across his high toms, hit a cymbal before he caught it in mid-air. Adam looked back at him and Danny just smiled. LOL
LOL! When the camera first started panning around the kit I said to myself verbatim "man, all his symbols are fucked up. I wonder when Garrett is going to notice". 😂
You need to check out Baard's The Sky is Red playthrough. It's awesome. He goes through a dozen sticks during it. Also you should check out videos by Morgan Agren, Marco Minneman and Gavin Harrison. Your reaction to Bill Bruford's Starless live with King Crimson from the 1970's would be a treat.
Jazz drummer reacts: Fave channel to watch with hubby. I'm jazz, he's death metal to give some context, see why we love your videos. 😆 🤘☺️🤘 hope you and your family feel better soon. Regards all the way from the other side of the world, Turkey 🛸🛸🛸
I've dropped a stick before and finished the last 30 seconds of a song by hitting the cymbals hard with my knuckles. Good shit, love seeing that stuff in playthroughs.
You should look into the live video of Morbid Angel performing Rapture with Tim Yeung (the vid with the drum-cam only view). His playing is utterly brutal, and his fills are just immaculate.
B.K also play on BlackMetal genre n some band,but LEPROUS one of priority band!! see how this band combine jazz+progressive n bit modern Black Metal tempo i call it ART!
Me too watching Ginger Baker back in oohhhh errrr anyway .. Baker Gurvitz Army it was ... broke a stick, chucked it away, got another never seemed to miss a beat .. brilliant .. :-)
