I've wanted to do a cover of this song for AGES! I first heard it back when Nolly was working on the mix for the album it's from ('Vector'), & he sent it to me to check out. That was a few years ago now, & I've wanted to do this cover ever since! Shoutout to Raymond Hearne for writing SICK parts (quite challenging, too!). You're a sick guy, dude.
The mix for this video was done by GOOD BUDDY Anup Sastry. If you're interested in hiring Anup for mixing / engineering work, you can contact him using the email below!
anupsastrydrums@gmail.com
Additional thanks to ALL the Haken dudes for providing me with / allowing me to use album stems for the mix (& thanks to Nolly for facilitating it!). Buncha REAL sick guys up in here.
& to all my fellow drum nerds, *PLEASE NOTE*:
Yes, I am using ACD Unlimited Pedals! I haven't said much about it online yet, but I've been fiddling with them for quite some time & they're RAD! I've made the decision to leave Trick Drums in the "official" capacity (& of course communicated my reasoning to them with immense respect & appreciation for everything that they've done for me) so that I could be a 'free agent' of sorts, & use whatever pedals I feel like using (Lol, I low key have a lot of pedals). With all the time at home in 2020, I started messing around with different pedals more & more just for fun. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that I didn't want to full-blown "officially" endorse any singular pedal company (at least for now), so that I'd have the freedom to use (& post about) whatever pedal I may be digging on.
What can I say, ya'll - I'm just a gear nerd & love trying out different pedals. LOL. So, while I have left Trick "officially", I still love their pedals, & you will surely still see me putting them to use sometimes. Got nothing but love for 'em! Lately however, I've been using the ACD Darwins, & they're TRULY rad AF! I will post more about em' in the near future. Shoutout to Dennis (from ACD) - I've known him for years now & he makes incredible stuff (lots of upgrade parts for other pedals, too!). If you're not familiar, check out the ACD site to learn more!

Do you really think so? I mean I think what you're trying to say is that he is in your opinion a really great drummer, and I would agree! However my impression is that Haken is one of the bigger names currently in prog and that they are well known for their musicianship. So unless there is some kind of wide spread obliviousness towards the bands drummer specifically, I would say your statement is categorically false. Anyway, my comment here is definitely nit-picky and quite irrelevant but i see this comment made about a bunch of musicians and would like to know how your internal rating system functions. Oh and in this case you even specified "in prog", while others I think often mean to say something like: "this musician should be famous instead of [ insert famous pop-artist(s) ]". Aaaanyway

One of my favorite things about Haken has been seeing Raymond get better and better on every album. Aquarius is like beginner prog rock, and now we have stuff like this from him. It’s been incredible following him on the journey (minus the fact that every new album is harder than the last to follow on drums...)

As a big fan of both Rudi and Haken, this makes me incredibly happy! As soon as the song came out, I started wishfully hoping that Rudi would cover it. I never expected it to happen though. Then one day, I saw one of his Instagram stories, and it had Nil By Mouth playing in the background. Fast forward a year or so and here we are - This is gonna be my new go-to drum video for awhile!

@@michaelberresford4291 Yeah, the main vocals reminded me a bit of Native Construct, but not as theatrical, which I liked. I wish there were more harsh vocals though, like the way Between the Buried and Me does. I'm still listening to Aquarius though, so I can only speak for that album.
@michaelberresford4291 3 жыл бұрын
@@Lu-ql There are only a couple songs in their catalogue that have harsh vocals, Streams I'm guessing you've heard thinking there might be more, and Architect from a later album which features the vocalist from Leprous for the harsh section. 99% of it is clean vocals though. I believe Ross is part of another band that does more growls, I'm just not into that vocal style.

I fucking know right, like listening to the song and you hear a sweet fill and you like "jesus Ray wtf was that?" then you watch and its like, "🤯 oh that's wtf that was, you, are, insane!" Favourite drummer at the moment he just keeps blowing me away, he's not super extreme like tech death (doesn't mean he don't do nuclear blast though ffs I'm so shit) but the complexity is getting close to Portnoy/Manguini levels of bullshitery, as is prog😁. But for me personally, I really like the groove in a lot of his parts, I just really like his style.
