Matt Halpern himself told me and about 15 other people about what this song meant to him during a drum clinic a few weeks back, and after hearing that and now seeing how intense this gets towards to the end, I can sincerely say this man puts more emotion into his drumming than anyone else i've ever seen, which makes him just that more of a pleasure to watch.
@mitchellsierra80047 жыл бұрын
can you elaborate on that at all? I'm genuinely curious to know what this means to him but I never would've thought to ask when I last saw them in August!
@papabolognese7 жыл бұрын
I may well get some details wrong in this, but sure thing. Basically he was on tour I think either at the end or beginning of 2015 and his dog died. idk if you follow Matt on many social medias but his dogs are pretty much his kids, like they mean so much to him. lune was lyrically written by Spencer about his girlfriend who he's like madly in love with, but Matt related it to the death of his dog. while they recorded the album track, Matt was crying all over the place and yet he still did it in a single take. The whole almost 7 minute song in one take.
@mitchellsierra80047 жыл бұрын
That's awesome man thank you for sharing that! I love to hear the backstories on songs and I knew there would be some serious emotions invested in this one. Lyrically it makes complete sense, but to know that Matt applied himself that deeply just makes me appreciate it even more. Thanks again!

@somekidwithanm44 жыл бұрын
One of my local drum mentors who I respect greatly once told me that a truly great drummer has nothing to do with their speed or capability, but how they convey the space inbetween each note. It's the ability to perceive when to play what and when not to play anything. I think Matt perfectly exemplifies that. Exactly what was needed to make the piece soar emotionally into hyperspace, nothing less, nothing more.
@TommyNitro4 жыл бұрын
I agree. It is like shredding on a guitar. The ability to shred is nice when it helps to tell the story. But simply endless constant speed becomes mindless and boring IMO. As you put it, the rests are just as important in conveying the emotion as the notes.

Red Cap That's just as subjective as saying that Periphery are the "best prog metal band out there right now", which is a ridiculous claim. Music affects individuals in different ways, many AAL songs get to me on an emotional level, but there is no way to definitively say that any band is the best of its genre. Tesseract absolutely shits all over Periphery when it comes to expressing emotion in the progressive metal genre.
