  • I've wanted to do this for years. Finally had to time to give it a go! It's not perfect but then again it's Meshuggah....
    It's been awesome to get back into drumming again. I've really enjoyed smashing this one out!
    Recorded and mixed in my studio by moi!
    Hope you enjoy!

      ​@@SwedeSpeeder to be fair, it *looks* like one of Meshuggah's easiest songs (disclaimer, I'm not a drummer). No double bass polymetric madness. I'll be really impressed if he does Clockworks...

      @@richardharrold9736 its not true for most drummers, i mean natural drummers not music students, keeping time in a groove in a slow song is harder than a blast beat or fast double bass(preferences, different skill sets) so this is one of the grooviest songs and if you arent a good drummer that is impossible to put life to.. yet when you are an allrounder and capable of both extremes, groove and speed, or technicallities like , which is actually more like a talent for sports, finger control and foot or better leg control, this can be called "easier" for the rest, nope.
