    1:20 Caleb walks up with the perfectly timed cymbal choke. Nice. I guess Caleb does write and play all of the instruments on their records. So he knows all if the parts in each song really well. As simple as this cymbal choke may appear, it really does make that part sound a lot more badass than of the cymbal just rang out

This just wasn't every fast aha he was just placing the groups of 4 on the hands around the kit. Here is the exact pattern:
      Legend:
      T = tom
      S = snare
      K = kick
