4:24 This man really adjusted the drum mic with his left hand mid-song and never missed a beat. Had to slow it down to .25 to see it! Amazing work, loving every bit.
I believe it was on his Sabian artist profile that I read that Gavin is one of his prime influences! Certainly not surprising at all. It also mentioned that his favorite record that he did NOT play on was In Absentia!
When ever I wanna watch a drummer do his thing in perfection, I just have to come to this video. It is sheer incredible, and perfect. I cant get enough of this song!
It's simply amazing to me how he apparently leads every song with his drums - everything else, vocals guitars etc is fascinatingly good, but it wouldn't be half as good as it is without this man behind the drums, it's just beyond words
Compositionally one of the best drummers ever in my opinion. So orchestral in style. Fits the music perfectly. And that my friends is the most important thing as a drummer period! Then add to that the fact that he is also extremely talented skill wise as well. Almost makes me want to quit instead I try harder
The prog genre has some of the most talented and technically inclined drummers available in the world. Jay Postones, Gavin Harrison, Mike Portnoy and Baard Kolstad just to name a few. Amazing what these guys achieve with their instrument. I am in total aw!!!
Being a musician/songwriter means coming to terms with the fact that you're just a collection of all the musicians/songwriters that influenced you throughout your life. Every once in a while a band like this comes along that kickstarts a desire to imitate whatever it is they're doing differently from everybody else. That's not what I truly desire, but now my head is churning with ideas. It would be nice to meet a drummer this talented to achieve some of these incredibly complex grooves I need in my life. I dabble with drums, but guitar is where I hang my hat. Not having an incredible drummer by my side is like having an untapped potential. If anybody loves metal and plays drums anywhere near the level this guy does hmu. Maybe we can make something happen. Much respect to Baard of course. Absolutely love what you do.
There is such jealousy, envy, admiration, etc here and all at the same time - inspiration! My brain can not comprehend how someone accomplishes such greatness!
I only recently discovered your work (through Leprous), and along side such amazing musicians instantly made me a fan. As a fellow drummer, your tasty and unique approach to the art gave me a renewed sense of inspiration. Keep it up, I'll be around to hear it for as long as I can. Rock on!
True story. It's like we're all drummees. We can break it down and learn it. But it also seems like an impossible mountain to climb too. Lol. Drumming is a fickle love
@@griegs2001 I am positive he does. My nephew is doing musical school, and Baard is stopping by as a one on one guest lecturer now and then. Awesome guy.
1:20 god DAMN that fill into the chorus uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh I've been trying to learn 2:10 to 2:48 there's just SO MANY things happening at once and right after the other. Different combination of rudiments with flams and accents jesus christ 4:14 THE REVERSE FILL AAAAAAAAAH so fkn good This man has complete mastery of drumming. Drums 100.
Man, your doing flams in your playing inspired me to be more creative on the drums and think about (and practice) my rudiments more. I am doing flams a lot more now and it sounds awesome around the kit.
It’s in 7/4 all throughout. It’s super hard to hear but once you get it, it’s definitely there. Idk how the hell Baard came up with this crazy convoluted enigma of a drum part, but holy fuck it works
Remember that game we played in primary school where we wiggled a pencil and said it was made out of rubber? Thanks for the high frame rate capture for giving us rubber drum sticks.
Hi Baard,Just saw you live in Stuttgart. Amazing. Great Show!!!!Love Leprous... Music with heart and soul. Greets from Mannheim Germany Klaus and Christine
Honestly man, you have been the breath of fresh air I have needed! Awesome style in an awesome band and amongst the flawless technical finesse, you have this real organic power that kinda reminds me John Theodore from The Mars Volta! You're very quickly becoming my favourite drummer! Keep it up!!! :D
Feckin' hell, man. I loved this song already, but I have a brand new respect for it, and you as a drummer. I can't wait to hear the new Leprous songs. Hopefully that'll be soon, cause I'm about to pull a Cartman and freeze myself on a mountain or something.
Baard: Ok guys, I have an idea. I'ma play a drum solo, but in rhythm with the song you're all playing, and we'll call the song Moon. Band: Like Keith Moon? Baard: Yes? Band: Dope, let's do it

mdr
That incidental tom hit at 4:04 makes me fucking nut
It is not !
copy that
This song has lead drums and rhythm everything else
Yeah that's a great way to describe it
Yeah, right! The synths and the guitars are swimming around and the drums hold it all together.

He is crearly a Gavin Harrison fan. So much groove, feeling and creativity.
Yep, he learned from the Master
This was actually the very first song I listened from Leprous. I felt in love instantly.
Mine was the price and damn i love the hi-hat in that song
Moon for me too, this video actually! I started playing drums thanks to this one.
There is a wonderful amount of Gavin Harrison going on here :). Great playing!
Gavin and Matt Garstka even more so!
Yes there is!
And Morgan Ågren even more!
I believe it was on his Sabian artist profile that I read that Gavin is one of his prime influences! Certainly not surprising at all. It also mentioned that his favorite record that he did NOT play on was In Absentia!
@@dak1124 Gavin Harrison played
In Absentia
they can chill the fk out with that camera
Zp Hedwig OMG HAHAHAHAHA
...haha yep....🤣🤣🤣🤦♀️
Best young drummer in the best young band in the world if you ask me! (also my fav Leprous song)
Same
My fave too.
This band is operating on an entirely different plane to anyone else. Stunning, absolutely stunning. And Baard is the crown jewel.
Not sure if this is playthrough or drum solo
Tone it down man, you're making me not appreciate my other favorite drummers.
And he's only 24.
One of the best songs on the album. Love the unorthodox groove. Wish the snare sounded more like this on the album
The most unique and exciting drummer right now. Easily.
he is one of the most, try danny carey, TOOL
@@magnusthepagan it's unfair to compare Danny Carry to mortals.
@@magnusthepagan he said "right know" like "modern drummer from a relative new band."
@@hugorezende199 how is this a relatively new band
The drum track in this song makes me think of a waterfall: beautiful and chaotic.
It feels like it's "alive" if that makes sense. It can take different forms every live performance. It feels fluid and liquid like.
The technical side is magnificent. The composition is magnificent. The level of feeling is magnificent. What a sticksman! 😮
it's technical, but still has a groove to follow without being a mess.
When ever I wanna watch a drummer do his thing in perfection, I just have to come to this video. It is sheer incredible, and perfect. I cant get enough of this song!
He's using cheat codes!
iDiotiCDesign lol
I fucking knew it!!!
The drummer is the master of this beautiful song !
The song are so powerful emotionally and Baard nails it very beautiful to put more dramatic in this song. What a talented guys all of you..

The kind of drum play that makes u want to live more

This is easily one of the best drummers in the music world today...
I've never seen anything like that before (except for baard playing live). This guy is a musical genius...
Incredible work!!! I cant end the video without replaying 5:44 over thousand times , cant get it enough it just superb !!
The whole thing's amazing, but that mixup on the lead-in brought me to climax, and as a hetero male that's terrifying 🤣
5:44 and his interchange was life changing
Could listen to this on loop all day!! Give chills everytime!!
M O O N, that spells incredible drummer

absolutely incredible. Haven't seen fills this good since gavin harrison
Why does his broken cymbals sound so great? Makes me wanna crush my cymbals too!
And the best bit is you don’t have to waste countless $$ on new pies if they are already broken 🥳
Anything can sound good when used properly
@@zealobiron Here is Baard proving your point; ruclips.net/video/nWHfSscEjMc/видео.html
Awsome band!!! Greetings from Poland
There is such jealousy, envy, admiration, etc here and all at the same time - inspiration! My brain can not comprehend how someone accomplishes such greatness!
The ending at 7:09 is beyond good. Not the same with the real track. This one is better and I love Baard’s facial expression!
I only recently discovered your work (through Leprous), and along side such amazing musicians instantly made me a fan. As a fellow drummer, your tasty and unique approach to the art gave me a renewed sense of inspiration. Keep it up, I'll be around to hear it for as long as I can. Rock on!
Baard plays with all his feelings! I love this boy, damn
Baard Kolstad and Matt Gartska are my favorite drummers!
Magani79 what about Jay Postones?
He is indeed supernatural! Have you heard Gavin Harrison?
Baard and Alex Rudinger are my two current favorites. I'm blown away almost every time I listen to ether one of those guys.
You guys should look up Pete Webber ;)
Have you ever heard Sean Reinert?
My new favorite Drummer!
Now I just need to see Red being played through... pretty plz!
Amazing. Saw it live on stage a few months ago and couldn't take my eyes off Bard in this brilliant song. The drumming was magical.
What a drummer!! Awesome
Feel, fluidity and form.
This dude makes me wanna quit drumming but at the same time makes me wanna practice even more
True story. It's like we're all drummees. We can break it down and learn it. But it also seems like an impossible mountain to climb too. Lol. Drumming is a fickle love
I am sure Baard wants you to chose the second option, to practice even more. I hope so too.
@@griegs2001 I am positive he does. My nephew is doing musical school, and Baard is stopping by as a one on one guest lecturer now and then. Awesome guy.
I love that just when it almost sounds like he's doing too much, the song changes and it all makes sense. Love Leprous!
Holy shit, this is amazing. Really big fan man. I think you're already in my top 3 drummers, your playing is just so creative.
Gotta love the irregular groove. It takes a lot of not only skill, but creativity.
1:20
god DAMN that fill into the chorus uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh
I've been trying to learn 2:10 to 2:48 there's just SO MANY things happening at once and right after the other. Different combination of rudiments with flams and accents jesus christ
4:14 THE REVERSE FILL AAAAAAAAAH so fkn good
This man has complete mastery of drumming. Drums 100.
Ooooh that cheeky ending though!
Baard YOU are a scandinavian GOD!!!!!!!!
PLEASE, Baard, if you are reading this (I know you will) I'm begging you guys, you have to come to south america (Chile please!)
Man, your doing flams in your playing inspired me to be more creative on the drums and think about (and practice) my rudiments more. I am doing flams a lot more now and it sounds awesome around the kit.
This might be the weirdest time signature I've ever heard
I recomend you to listen to Blotted Science .
Listen to Meshuggah, you'll be blown away
It’s in 7/4 all throughout. It’s super hard to hear but once you get it, it’s definitely there. Idk how the hell Baard came up with this crazy convoluted enigma of a drum part, but holy fuck it works
@@firkinja If I remember correctly Baard said it was in 7/4 | 6/4 | 5/4 | 6/4 | 5/4 and then repeat
That title goes to every car bomb song
Remember that game we played in primary school where we wiggled a pencil and said it was made out of rubber? Thanks for the high frame rate capture for giving us rubber drum sticks.
One of my fav drum pieces ever!
This is pure bliss. Thank you so much Baard for your inspiring drumming!
The mastdrumspiece by excellence !!!! (My top drums video)
Hi Baard,Just saw you live in Stuttgart. Amazing. Great Show!!!!Love Leprous... Music with heart and soul. Greets from Mannheim Germany
Klaus and Christine
1st verses are totally "wtf is going on here" to me
Try to count 7, 6, 6, 5, 6, 5 and loop it.
+Baard Kolstad It help (a little)...... I think you are an alien to play this with so much feelings ;)
Baard Kolstad thanks hahah cheers from BRAZIL
Baard Kolstad don’t get it. How?
Süleyman Tüfekçi listen to the electrical piano :)
Got to love this drummer!👍💯
These playthroughs are awesome. thank you.
Great job! I listen to this song almost every morning when I'm driving to work :)
Dude's playing with a half broken stick in his left hand.......and is still a badass!
Insane. Complex Beat
You truly are a beast mate, excellent rendition of an excellent tune! Kudos!
It almost looks like it was sped up with how fast he moves at times yet it's obviously not faked. Just amazing.
The framerate is different than what you're used to
@@davidnovark not the framerate lol
Great work on the video Simen Sandnes!!!!
IN-CRE-DÍ-BLE !!! Best young drummer actually!
No words to describe it
I can't watch the full video without replaying 1k times this f**kin fill at 6:30. Baard is a god :O
Lars Ulrich created ten Google accounts to dislike this video
It's sad how one cannot go to any drum video's comments section without having some guy mocking Lars Ulrich. Sad and boring.
@@gordonbrinkmann Relax bro! It's jusk a joke... I love Lars! It's impossible to mensurate his contribution to metal music. :D
@@lucaskellermann4740 Yeah, but hearing/reading a joke a million times doesn't make it funnier...
@@gordonbrinkmann ok
You win! Bwahaha! Lmfao
Genious drummer, genious song, genious band!!
It's amazing! :) Thanks Baard!
Man I hate comparisons but this one really reminds me of Rishloo, a band I totally forgot about. Leprous and Baard amazing as always
rishloo is such a great band
Yeah! Good job, that was tight
Honestly man, you have been the breath of fresh air I have needed! Awesome style in an awesome band and amongst the flawless technical finesse, you have this real organic power that kinda reminds me John Theodore from The Mars Volta! You're very quickly becoming my favourite drummer! Keep it up!!! :D
Great song and amazing performance. Hoping to see you guys in Turkey!
Feckin' hell, man. I loved this song already, but I have a brand new respect for it, and you as a drummer. I can't wait to hear the new Leprous songs. Hopefully that'll be soon, cause I'm about to pull a Cartman and freeze myself on a mountain or something.
Very talented! Really love the final 2 minutes, the shifting / weird time signature. Saw you live this past year, was blown away!
Love the fact that all of Baards symbals all fuc*d up :D
I really hope seeing this band after the war in my country is over!!!! This is amazing guys!!!! Your music is fenomenon! And it’s fantastic!!!!
Beautifully played sir! Can't wait to see ya in Dallas! :)
Saw you guys live in Atlanta, GA! PLEASE COME BACK! Much love!
Phenomenal as always!
Haha that ending is fire
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!This i the best ritms!!!!!!!!!!!!Its something magic-isnt it?))))))))
Baard: Ok guys, I have an idea. I'ma play a drum solo, but in rhythm with the song you're all playing, and we'll call the song Moon.
Band: Like Keith Moon?
Baard: Yes?
Band: Dope, let's do it
Damn!
I was searching for how to burn fat in 7 minutes. Thank you Baard...
SICK !
It's amazing!!!
AMAZING BAND 💖 🤘
the energy :o
he sure has stamina, along with tremendous skill
Plus a really strong memory
Love it!
So beast!!
this is superhuman
this was so frigging entertaining
Baard Kolstad >> I wish Mario Duplantier watches your videos. Cheers from France.
Haha, mes deux batteurs préférés justement, chacun ayant un touché incroyable et un groove qui manque trop souvent dans le metal (hors prog).
I'm no drummer but I'd imagine this to be almost impossible to cover 'note for note'
yeah it would be ridiculous, especially because he's playing as complexly and showy as possible during the verses
+Eden Porter He's insane! Great to watch
Yeah exactly. That's what I love about this song, its rhythm is so unorthodox that Baard can mould it to his liking every time he performs it
yeah it's at least 40% improvisation
Outside of Animals as Leaders and Nova Collective, Id say you are correct.
