Hey guys, what about to pick any jazz drummer and put them into "Sancta Terra" by EPICA? Thanks for your awesome videos!
well... guess I'm in now, just bought your Drumeo / Alesis E-kit bundle!
After 30 years of listening to Metal and being amazed by the skill of all these drummers (Mario Duplantier being one my all time favs), I finally crossed the Styx thanks to you!
Needless to say, the learning and practicing road ahead is completely frightening, I only hope I will have as much fun "playing" as I have watching these amazing musicians.
You’ve gotta do Got The Life by Korn, would be so interesting to see what someone does with it. No way they’re predicting the original parts. Please!
Thank you so much for showing his lead sheet so much! That was the one part of this series I wanted more of - "What are you thinking? What are you charting? Is there a method to what your lead sheet notes are?" during the active listening sessions. Thank you @DrumeoOfficial !!
He freakin’ held his own. I really dug his fills in the closing section of Stranded as it leads into the end of the song.
This series acts as a living proof of how a drummer can change the whole feeling of an entire song. And every drummer has a new universe to show through her/his playing. Jake is such a beast, a great drummer.
Amen (break) to that my friend!
I love how you can see a little bit of each drummer's personality and their differences/life experiences. It's great.
Metal/Country!
An interesting concept!
Cheers Drumeo.
This is only something that can be done with drums. If you change the guitar parts then it becomes unrecognizable but you can change the drums and it still remains the same song but different.
this is Jake tho, Luke is the singer lol
Huge respect for Gojira. You should get Mario on next.
And give him a country song 😂
Be unfair to most drummers lol
@@stuminnis4050he's gonna brutalize that for sure haha
that would be immense. doubt he''ll be on though.
Billy Rymer too.
The fact that he doesn’t play metal or anything remotely metal nor have a clue as to who Gojira are - he did an amazing job. Credit to him for having the guts to put himself out of his comfort zone - really impressed. 🤘👏👏🤘
No they gave him an easy and simple track.
@@mikeydmz1588 seriously Mickey - you a world class drummer? Doubt it. You haven’t a clue obviously
@@mikeydmz1588"easy and simple" 🤣🤣🤣
gr8 b8 m8, 8/8
@@froblivion8284 dont need to be a drummer to understand basic things
@@NishebrodushkaWhat basic things are you referring to?
Huge Gojira fan here and I have to say this dude did a very respectable take on this song. Just goes to show the level that all professional drummers are at, and their ability to learn and adapt to different styles.
If you like Gojira check out a group called Orbit Culture. They take heavy inspiration from them and Metallica and are up and coming
@@jackalope_hunterI'll listen to them.
@@jackalope_hunter Orbit Culture are fucking incredible, and their drummer is no joke!
@@jackalope_hunter Hey men thanks for the recommandation, Orbit Culture is one hell of a band that I didn't know!!!
that sucked hahaha shows how untalented country artists are on the whole
its crazy the difference between take one and two he picked it up insanely fast super impressive
Yeah that really blew my mind. Professional musicians are another level.
Yeah especially surprising on the time changes
That's why he's a pro. I know enough of these country guys to tell you that their learning curve is ridiculous.
I saw country drummer to a gojira song, fuck yeah I wanna see what happens lol
I'd give the guy an hour to work on in and out would be lit
Any drummer that gets a Gojira song is thrown to the wolves. Since he's not usually playing a super technical genre either, laying a drum track to a song that features one of the most revered and skilled drummers in the world is an insane task. Well done!
imagine they chose one of their earlier songs, not saying that stranded is a bad one but some of their earlier songs drumming wise are nuts.
@@DasInf13 they chose carefully for sure, can't imagine he would've made any sense of a track like Clone
@@NuclearHeadshot Clone probably would've vaporized him. There's a reason Mario never has a shirt on! 😆
@@_Jay_Maker_ he's of course not going to be able to play Joes parts, but I don't think he'd even know how to approach the pinch-heavy riff with unconventional time signature changes.
Please check my Gojira drum video, I want to play it on Drumeo someday !

Help a french drummer out ;)
Im mad you put "luke combs drummer" and not his name
Right? I wish they would give them a little more backstory for people who aren't familiar with their name
💯
Yep, duck Luke combs
Exactly, give the guy some cred on his name
💯
I don't know this drummer but he's a total beast. To play that good a Gojira song on a second take is insane, what a pro
Totally agree! What a pro !
I saw Gojira a couple years ago and it was damn near a spiritual experience. Hearing Flying Whales live was like being hit with a wall of sound. What a band.
Seen them live 3 times and every time its fucking insane.
Saw them in August, incredible time.
Saw them for the first time at Knotfest 2021. When they played "Love" with everyone kicking dust up in the circle pits, it felt like being on the grounds of a medieval war.
Absolutely. Their music is incredible, but seeing them live is on another entirely. Incredible.
Yup. They have that effect on you :)
Mad respect to this drummer. He is rarely asked to play drum parts as complex as Gojira. You can hear the basics of what Mario does in this drummer’s parts that he’s figuring out on the fly. Just goes to show what it means to be a professional, regularly performing, musician. Great work! Filling Mario’s seat is nye impossible for 98% of drummers!
Oh, and get Mario on to do some funk!
Lol...and i'm sure he does!! Mario is a beast!!
He does! kinda, they have a fusion jazz band called Empalot in which they get kinda funky.
You can tell he's a pro. Just a different bag of tools for sure.
That snare tone is what dreams are made of
Hell yeah. It's rich
Please check my Gojira drum video, I want to play it on Drumeo someday !

Help a french drummer out ;)
Dudes. Even on my damn cell phone that snare sounds sick af
i hate it
@@fengrr vibe up bro damn
Dude this is maybe the most challenging one of these I’ve ever seen. This dude got thrown to the wolves and held his own and I respect the HELL out him and his ability. Mario is other worldly, and this dude got closer than most ever will.
The immediate respect for Mario once hearing the actual song is awesome!
Dude played some cool parts in there too though!
I've never been into drums before, can't play any instrument... but I'm OBSESSED with this series! It's so fun! I love seeing how everyone puts their own spin on each song
somebody should do this process once for each instrument and then combine the results into some bizarro cover
You genuinely only need a pair of sticks to start out and play along to some songs.
@@kaiserruhsam I would absolutely pay to see this
@@NickdeDrummer i started with chopsticks and the underside of a skateboard
After watching Chad I went out and bought a drum set 😂
Massive respect to Jake. This has truly been incredible to watch. Jake, if you're reading this, you're one hell of a musician. The way you played that part in take 2 was amazing for just a second try. Great video, was fun to watch and see Jake's response to Mario. Such a humble guy.
Agreed.
What I find so fascinating is that he absolutely nailed the backbeat groove. In fact in all of these, the drummer nearly always gets the basic groove right, even if the details are different.
right! like how he jumped in right on time with that kick at the beginning
That outro section in the second take was incredible. Played like it was indented to. Such a incredible rendition.
for real! i was hoping he did another take with that energy lmao
yeah he definitely got into it proper towards the end.
he started feeling it more and more as it went on it was pretty great to watch it kind of click for him. at about 7:10 he does some fancy stuff on the symbols and you can kind of see it on his face like "oh that works well actually!"
I'd definitely love to see him do a third take with that energy. Would be an awesome track I think
Wish he did a 3rd take. He was really getting into the flow by the end
Dude needs to be in a metal band. His fills and accents were straight fire
Fun fact Koe Wetzel’s drummer used to play in Fit for a King
@@jessebeeghly3608 I think Pablo from Chelsea grin is playing in a country band too now
Sometimes when you ask someone kind of oblivious to a genre to play that genre they make such creative stuff. They're not bound by the rules so their exploratory moves goes down untread paths.
Honestly so many things metal drummers could pick up from his inventions here.
@@vuguroth I assume it's probably since if you're a high-level drummer for a big popular act, you have to have had session experience, like a ton
And through that you build a great repertoire of techniques, styles etc.
The drumming might sound simple in Country but the musicians are not as an example
It's intimidating if you're a musician starting out since the industry is so fickle and exclusive
Country music pays more...far more...
I've been drumming for 20 years. This my new favorite series on youtube. Makes ya smile
im not even a drummer, but this series is amazing. nice break from the crap on tv. haha.
You gotta hand it to the guy... completely out of his realm, his genre, and he did an incredible job!
That snare sound hits like a truck. I love it.
Sleep token drummer did this drum interview. Listen to that snare.
@@Dr..Spyderbro discovered sleep token this week and can’t wait to tell everyone
i thought my phone rings and is vibrating. went to check it twice while listening to this fun video.
@@Dr..Spyder II's snare sound is ridiculously good.
Quite the "thwack" to it. Lil too low for me but then again II's is too high for me
Really felt like he got comfortable at 8:30. Once he got that song confidence, he just let it rip and had so much fun. This one was a great one to watch!
Yeah, before that there were a few spots where it really felt like he was hesitating and a bit lost at what to do in the moment, but once that part hit everything changed.
I was just listening to the video and reading comments and you're 100% he nailed it at that part
Exactly. I just commented the same thing without scrolling comments first.
Yeah, it’s definitely the moment he found his groove.
Agreed 100%! Seems it’s irrefutable at this point 😅
What a straight up and humble dude. Really positive, appreciates the greatness of other musicians, and is himself an absolute beast on the drums! Great video, and a great choice of song!
Really loved some of those fills and the grooveyness from 8:32 onwards was amazing!
The groove got me, I was moving my head along at the moment you mentioned.
I'm so impressed by this cover, the song is so hard to even grasp, yet this drum cover is extremely good.
Damn, he really kicks it up a gear in the second half of the final take, I was thinking he was a bit stuck on the hi and snare for a while but then he starts throwing in some tasty stuff. Great job Jake!
Yeah I started thinking he had lost himself with the 4/4 and couldn't figure out the song. I wonder if they actually let these guys take a few cracks at the song before showing us
Thought the same thing, he got stuck for a bit but then he blasted the second half. Fun watch.
I think he was waiting for the time signature change so he could figure it out. Once he got that down he started having fun
What he did with the ride part was siiiiick.
My thought was that he's used to playing for a singer who wants to cut through, so maybe Jake was interpreting the Verse as a point for him to just provide a pounding backing.
Hands-up for: "We absolutely need an hour-long Mario special on Drumeo"!
This series is fantastic because it really shows how important perception and listening are, in the moment.
10/10 Drumeo
🏆
As an ex-studio drummer myself, as well as a country/ metal drummer...you nailed it brother! Hell yeah!!!
im a metal guy and mostly played in grind and hardcore bands but man, i played in a country band several years ago and it was the most fun i had playing. the simplicity really lets you open up for dynamics
I think people forget how country drums are very rock and roll. It's the guitars and vocals that are so different from metal. Gojira is tough because of the timing changes. I think if it had been something a little more straightforward, like Vader or In Flames, he would have nailed it in 1 take.
I love how in the final take you could see the creative juices start flowing as he really started to feel the song, I bet he went home and started playing some more Gojira
Just gotta say it; Brandon & drumeo have bought one of the most exciting things to RUclips with this series. Every time one of these videos comes up I immediately can’t wait to press play.
One day, I truly dream of honouring a series like this with either my own music or having the greatest privilege of getting to visit this studio. Tremendously inspired & motivational content, as always 🙏💕
Haha yea seriously! Sometimes im even like..dont know who that drummer is, dont know this song, but im stoked to watch this!
Agreeeed.
It's as catchy as Hot Ones.
Your work with holding absence is absolutely killer, dude - would be awesome to see you on this channel
yea!!!
Massive props for stepping so far out of your comfort zone dude. Gojira drumming is extremely complex, so the whole steady backbeat gave the song a completely different feel. Heck i even got black album vibes here and there, and I don't mean that as a disrespect.
More of this fine gentleman, please!
Took the later era Metallica Lars approach in the perfect way. I don’t get the Lars haters, without Lars there is no Metallica. Lars has never been the best, not even close. He’s arguably not even very good anymore, but why does anybody care?
Yes, I heard the drumming from Sad But True too
@@joelab9222AGREED! This gentleman has some great fills though...good atuff.
I was nervous they were gonna make him play The Art Of Dying. Also what a damn humble guy!
I was hoping rofl, but that would have been so hard. "Ok, for this first minute plus... play some stuff that blends with the next part. Just you." Lol
I love the fill at the end of 9:15 bar, it is SOO good. The whole outro part is amazing
Not even a drummer but wanted to be one. Also a huge gojira fan. The day you get Mario Duplantier on Drumeo it's the day I buy a drumkit and get drumeo courses.
Get a pad, some sticks and get a head start on it with 66Samus' short rudimental videos because its only a matter of time! you'll be a beast when you get on a real kit for the first time once you have the core rudimentals down! :)
Sticks and a pad can seriously take you pretty far if you consistently practice!
Same here!
drumeo has a beginner bundle with pad, sticks and lessons, i think it's a great deal and no, im not working for them lol.
Go for it my friend. Life is short
No doubt that Jake is going to start listening to them. He identified the creativity right off the bat, bobbing the head to the beat. I bet Gojira just made a new fan!
I think Jake made a few new fans here too!
@@johnjjohningtoniii2439 You bet!
These are so awesome! Someone should do a vocal equivalent where a singer hasn’t heard a song and hears the backing track and gets the lyrics but make up the melody of the lyrics themselves.
These videos are dope, showing metal drummers other stuff was cool but it’s even cooler seeing country and jazz drummers playing complex metal stuff. I’d never thought “hey, the drummer for like combs is pretty damn good”, but now I got a whole new pov of his musicianship, the artist, and the genre as a whole.
His fill for “leave the moment alone” part grooved really nicely.
Pretty sure the lyrics are "leave the mother alone"
There needs to be this type of series for every instrument ❤
Check out Pianote, especially the one with Jordan Rudess
If you wanna check them out Scott’s bass Lessons yt channel, and Pianote (drumeo’s sister channel) do these videos with their respective instruments. I would say though the fact that pitch and key are involved make it not nearly as interesting or as drastic a vibe shift as drums have. Unless they are doing some mad jazzy or prog like chord progression generally you can find safety in a scale pretty quickly.
Basseo, Guitario, Keyseo, Tromboneo
It's a little trickier to do it with guitar or bass cause you'd start to need to talk about Chords and melodic stuff that don't really limit you for drums the same way.
@@davidpeters6743 seasoned pro guitarists and bassists can chart out changes much like drummers do with their charts. Once they work out what key it's in (usually within a minute or less), the parts come quite naturally.
As someone who has never heard the song, his second take seemed absolutely awesome. To me it sounded like exactly what should be there.
A lot of the songs that have been featured in this series have clear rhythmic structures even with time signature changes, the rhythm remains clear. Gojira, especially in this song, don’t make it entirely obvious where you’re supposed to feel the beat, especially on the chorus part, so to learn this in two takes essentially 90% as good as any drummer could be expected to is OUTRAGEOUS! Jake killed this, and this should go down as a contender for blind take of the year. Incredible choice by the staff too!
His fills were like bullet fire, I love that for a metal track, he nailed most of it with authority
Massive massive respect to this guy. Drums sounded lush and he nailed a groove that worked beautifully ✔️
This series has made me want to start drumming for real. I’ve been obsessing over it lately! Jake this was amazing!! Thank you Drumeo!
This one was really fun. Congrats on playing out of your comfort zone, Jake. You sir are a beast.
Gojira is one of, if not the best modern metal band out there today. They’re so insanely tight, all of them.
Agreed. 🤘
right now they are the best metal act. Keeping alive guitarr, drums and vocals only ttradition alive.
I heard Mario Duplantier have 3 legs and 3 arms
Have they asked him to come on yet? He seems to enjoy uploading his own youtubevideos sometimes, so could be fun for him.
Mastodon for me.
I love it when a drummer I've never heard of plays a song I've never heard.
I absolutely ADORE getting to experience it with someone and getting into TWO different new groups to rock to.
Same. Jake is definitely great. I don’t listen to country, I have no idea who this guy Luke Holmes is but he looks to be one of those huge mega star country singers I have no idea at all about XD. But thanks to Jake I’ll now start listening to him.
Heck yes! Such a cool series.
@@rodrigozamoI believe the film Boogie Nights was about Luke Holmes.
One of the best things of this series to me is, that I've get to know great musicians!
Humble, song serving drummers, like this nice guy here.
Respect to Jake, he seems like a super chill guy. He did a damn good job too considering the time changes that get thrown around in this song.
Beyond seeing how creative these musicians are in experimenting across genres with tunes they’ve never heard, I appreciate that their admiration for their fellow drummers trickles down to the viewer. What this series does well is that it imparts the importance of listening to numerous genres, especially when learning an instrument, to learn the nuances and many styles to play. It’s cool seeing these drummers get turned on to new music but what tickles me more is the thought that viewers who are maybe stuck in their own genres get exposure beyond their own comfort or interest level and see musicians representative of their own tastes absolutely slay something outside their wheelhouse. This series fosters curiosity in and respect for all the genres out there. I’ve never been disappointed or bored by a single one of these videos. Please keep them going!
I am also a big advocate of listening different genres and practicing even if that’s not your thing
Most eloquently said.
You have no idea internet 'musician'
He got soooo dangerously close to the real thing in first take.. That 4/4 part is fine and time counting does tell you fill parts after 2 of these but how to do you exactly get so close to the style of fills!! Damn artists reading other artist's minds without meeting eachother this is.
Mad respect for crossing the genre divide and doing a solid job. I could see the confidence building throughout the second take... starting to feel the groove and taking some risks on the fills. Awesome watching these videos.
I love this channel so much. I share all of this when I see it because my dad has played drums since he was in his teens (he is going to be 74 this year and just played a tribute gig last month) and has been in various bands. He loves seeing this stuff. I would love to see him take something like this on if his health would allow him.
its cool how all these drummers can add thier unique flavour to these songs.
Oh come on, which part exactly was the unique one? Dude rode basic 4/4 rhythm throughout the whole song. Zero flavors, grooves or originality.
The tom groove he finds near the end of song is breathtaking. Just sooooooooooo funky.
The man chopped those drum fills like Paul Bunyan. He's got the talent and the speed. An absolute hammer behind a kit. Great job and a miraculously wicked song.
He has a very Black Album Lars Ulrich feel to his playing, which very much suits the track.
Those tasty ride accents were so dope. In the first take they reminded me of stuff Gene Hoglan would do on a Death song. That last fill on the final take was murderous. It also looks like he didn't have a double kick either. This man knows his shit and did a fantastic job. Please keep this show going forever.
funny you mentioned Gene Hoglan. I immediately drew a comparison to strapping young lad, another band he was a part of that was headed by Devin Townsend.
You can hear how his experience performing live influences his approach. He was leaving space for the other performers in the first take. I like that. I also loved seeing how much fun he was having.
Good point. In his usual genre, leaving space for the other performers would also be very important, right? So maybe that was also part of it?
Good play dude. Thanks for being in the spirit, it's what makes these videos great to watch.
This is beyond awesome for you to go outside you're comfort zone. You'll grow as an artist for your attempt to play other genres. You killed it brother! 🔥
The backbone of what he played was so solid ! You can tell he is a master at playing with a group and making a song the best it can be !
Backbone would have been a more interesting song choice. 😂
Jake's snare sound with this reverb is so awesome!
I was so impressed by this. Just the facility with the instrument to flow through that on the spot is amazing.
This was so awesome, and what a humble guy Jake is! I love these videos more than you guys can ever know. Keep em coming!! :)
What an intimidating song! He absolutely nailed it. My favourite part of this series is how these drummers can take something completely out of their comfort zone and make it record ready in a morning. True masters
For those that don’t know, Gojira is a band that uses lots of complex polyrhythms. This song was no exception…it’s just that he picked out the steady 4/4 back beat, changing the whole feel in a pretty cool way
This drum part is so creative (especially the outro) for a comparatively simpler song by Gojira standards!
The song Stranded is in 4/4. No complex polyrhythms.
@@joshuahoman1184yes. The only quirk is the switch with the kick and snare during that main riff
Everything before 8:32 sounds like Lars playing Gojira. Everything 8:32 and after is fantastic.
It’s shocking how close to the original he went at 9:00 on, amazing!!!
Jake is an awesome drummer. It was a difficult song, because you can play it in sooo many ways. Gojira drummer indeed is a beast.
Finding a good drummer is usually the hardest part of forming a band. The fact that y'all are trying to produce more drummers for the world is awesome!
God damn, this series never gets dull. Every time I hear about LC and/or his band, it's always either fun or heartwarming. Good dude and great on the kit. Mario is great too and this finally convinced me that I need to sit down and dive thru Gojira's discography real bad. thanks for the vids, Drumeo!!
Loved your second take, some parts were really haunted sounding for me 🤘
So much respect to these drummers for taking on these challenges. Really enjoy this series
Being very familiar with this song, it's amazing how his "misinterpreting" the beat at 6:20 made my brain tickle. What a great player this guy is, great job.
Dude I read this as I was hearing it hahaha. I loved it. He did the right thing of muscling through it!
I really like how as the song progressed he got more confident to add his own finesse to it, such great creativity in his playing and an awesome job creating so much feel! Also his drum tones are freaking amazing
This guy is an amazing drummer. What a humble guy and what a tight style he plays!
Technically not VERY difficult on the drums, but for someone to come up with the drums from a first listen, especially if you're not familiar with Gojira... It's really difficult! Kudos for the cool fills and the tight ending! Good job!
Playing a Gojira song in the drums:
Stranded 😊
Art of Dying 💀
Jake did a great job here! Mario Duplantier the Gojira drummer is one of the most talented drummers out there, he is a straight out robot, he dont make mistakes, just saw them live 2 months ago, what an experience, it is the same listening to them live than studio version, what a drummer experience!
I seen them live in August last year. And even though it was an outdoor venue. Hands down the loudest concert I’ve ever attended. And a straight up surreal experience. Would hands down see them again!!!
Dude comes here and attempted a song which he normally wouldn't, this series is a great one. Huge respect to Luke for getting things sorted on the fly.
Super fun, loved seeing Jake try something new - could tell he got a real kick out of playing a different style of music :) Love this channel, keep it up!
This show proves the all drummers have an exquisite taste to put his/her own signature in each piece. Love it.
This series is great. I am not a drummer but this definetely helped me to found new levels of respect for these guys. Those small interactions and discussions help to see the person, who for sure is not just a guy behind drums. Great concept and great talent on the show. Btw for a mostly country drummer i think he did realy good. The difference between 1st and 2nd take was huge. He can be proud.
love this song, means a lot to me. props to him, he got tossed a very difficult song and he did an interesting take with it. you could tell at the start he was pretty nervous about it, but once he loosened up a bit you could tell he was having some fun with it. love these vids, keep 'em coming
You can see him gradually relax as the second take progresses. Hesitant at first, going at it towards the end.
It's interesting: Stranded has its moments of difficulty, but I bet they picked it because they knew this guy could pull it off. Compare that to the earlier albums, where as a non-metal drummer you'd be completely unable to get close
This series is honestly so cool, it's awesome to see everyone's different takes on songs that we seem to already know so well, and to hear how they sound with different ideas. It's also great to see people out of their comfort zone. I wanna see someone try meshuggah someday haha
That was an incredible interpretation, and he made a ton of great choices when he was filling in his own parts. Really impressive.
I love seeing the behind the scenes of them choosing the song, I don't know if I saw this in past videos. I really like this, so cool.
Man he really stepped in it by not knowing Gojira and then having to do this as a result! I know it wasnt first try but honestly anybody that could get this first try with Gojira is inhuman. This guy pulled through with enough left over to gives us some great and intersting playing. I hope Mario sees this I'm sure hed be pretty impressed.
As a big Gojira fan, huge respect to Jake for this!
His drums and cymbals sound really amazing! He did a really great job with the song! Big win!
Crushed it at 8:30. Bravo!!!!!
These are SO good videos. Thank you again Drumeo!
Love to see an open-handed dude on the show, top work Drumeo and Jake!
I fucking love this series so much! Having drummers from all sorts of different backgrounds playing music they don't usually play. So badass. Please don't kill this series! 🤘🏻
I love hearing kits that are tuned for one specific genre playing another genre.
The country drum tones work so well with this.
I’m so mesmerized and impressed by drummers and the skills you have and practice. you’re brilliant!
It's like Mario added chaos to the song and Jake added structure. 2 insanely different styles
I'm a bassist and got into this series with Larnell Lewis playing Metallica and immediately subscribing was one of the best decisions I ever made. I love seeing the notification for these. Great work, Mr Sommers. And great work, Drumeo.
That was the first Drumeo video I saw, too. Just the idea of getting a drummer playing something from a different genre that they hadn't heard before was enough to get me subbed. And they've just got better and better.
Even got me watching some Larnel Lewis and Snarky Puppies videos and that's not a genre I go for.
Likewise
I wish I could be this rock solid on tempo the whole time on a second take of a crazy song I've never heard before.
Love this series, so interesting to hear what a drummer stylistically worlds apart from Mario interprets the song as. He definitely took inspiration with the ride from Blind by Korn which is funny as I never heard a Korn style in the riff until now. I want to see someone from jazz do Art of Dying please!
Or l'Enfant Sauvage, I really want to hear what crazy part they'd come up with for the verse.
