It's good to hear Lovgren (bassist) stretch out. He's forced into a very important role within Meshuggah, so he doesn't solo,but it's good hear him play out here.
This was on RU-vid in 720 with better video and audio quality uploaded by Flungbungdung... those got deleted, thankfully this channel still has them. I sent VicFirth several e-mails begging them to re-upload these vids in real HQ. Such epic footage, one of the best live sounding drums I have ever heard
I remember that. Those videos got deleted from Vic Firth official site when their website got redesigned. Not sure why the videos uploaded by Flungbungdung got deleted from RU-vid though... VicFirth had also another video of a clinic from Haake during the Drum'n'bass Days Festival in 2006. It was the complete uninterrupted session where Haake would play sections of Stengah, Soul Burn, Glints Collide, and Future Breed Machine. Just like the Drummerlive one, the sound and video quality was great. I just wish Vic Firth would just upload those fucking videos instead of deleting them and do nothing with it.
Haake is a gentleman & genius. he has always given us such gorgeous snare tones. his lyrics, art, drum parts & drum sounds are all wonderful. Lövgren is an absolute mæstro as well. every member of the band is a world class player & inspiring musician.
@Skjolldir this is going to sound crazy but Lovgren is as talented as Thordendal in my opinion. Listen to his bass work on the jazz record by The Nica Group, its stellar.
