She nodded her head when they told her it was Rage like she’d heard their name before but it was evident she didn’t KNOW their music. If she hasn’t heard THIS song before it’s safe to say she doesn’t know the bands work. Original comment was spot on.

Is not about nailing exactly what the song does, it's about how the drummer interprets it for the first time in their own style/way. Pretty good to me, I don't like the posture, but the sound is quite good for what it is.

@gabrielpline7490 Ай бұрын

This is an excellent take. Brad does what he hears the song telling him to do. Jess heads a different voice. Both add different but equally effective support.

@razjml Ай бұрын

@@scene24man Along with lyrical content and Tom Morello's musicianship, what really separates Rage from the rest of the 90s rap rock also-rans is how tight and funky their rhythm section is.

@latinolawdog5067 Ай бұрын

Yeah, Rage used a lot of primal beats in their songs and let Tom explore the room with his unique guitar wizardry. The drums were used more as a thump than a musical instrument at times, which is probably what made them so good. If Brad were back there using a lot of fills, double bass, complex signatures, etc it probably would have drowned out Zack’s crucial lyrics and Tom’s riffs somewhat.

The use of a ride instead of hats during the verse is something that stands out so much in this song, and I absolutely love it.

I feel like there’s two reasons she nailed the song so well; the entire song is so in tune with each instrument in order to create such a lively song: the breaks and slow parts of the song are apparent because of how tight the musicianship is. Every element compliments another. That and Jess is a really really great drummer with a natural gift for rhythm. Wow. 👏
