Gartska is the best drummer I've ever heard.
My mind is going in circles on this one
@@DrumRollTonyReacts "Monomyth" and "Gordian Naught" playthroughs are a must too.
Sorry but that distinction would go to iron hands Eloy Casagrande
He is in my top 3 as well.
@@Warchild0311 Eloy's great but Matt's got more finesse and is more versatile. I'd say Eloy is the best metal drummer out there, but overall, Matt's concepts and execution edge him out slightly. I do love Eloy's Brazilian influence into his playing....makes it totally unique!
Matt did a breakdown of this song and how he came up with the parts on his channel. That last fill was instigated by the second guitarist, Javier Reyes who said something along the lines of "you can't just end the song, you have to throw in some of that Matt Garstka shit!" LOL
I feel like im becoming addicted to watching people forget how to speak as they react to Matt Garstka lol. Great video!
kids a genius, please dont apologize for going back and relistening to parts, having these songs broken down and having someone with a music background as blown away by this music as I am makes me want to keep watching these videos. more asl please
No bass player. It's two guitarists on 7 or 8 strings and the drummer. Tosin Abasi developed thumb slapping for the guitar and that's why it's so thumpy and bass-y. They're amazing.
That's so cool
they do have a studio bassist and sometimes tosin records bass, which is added to the backing track.
“I don’t know what time signature that was in right there…” - Tony and every AAL fan. Awesome reaction, man, I really enjoyed you adding what you could. Easy sub for sure
He has playthroughs of almost all songs of the new record. All insanely great. You really can‘t go wrong there. But favorites are Monomyth and Gordian Naught. There is also a great live version of The Brain Dance where you can see the full band.
Sweet. Thanks for the heads up
i second monomyth and gordian naught
6:55 I love your genuine reactions and the way you break it down. My dad is a drummer of over 40 years so I appreciate all the drum reviews without actually knowing what's happening on the technical level. It's been great introducing him to new music that I find from this channel. He also just casually says he is going to text and ask his friend Mr. Dennis Chambers if he knows who this beast Matt Garstka is lol. Thank you for the videos.
Tony's reaction at 3:57 is priceless... his face is just saying "duuude cmon..."
LMAOOOO this guy makes me question everything when he plays. haha
Love your endless wealth of technical knowledge about all things music and instruments. Pretty rare to have a reaction video channel with the amount of chops you have as a band teacher, it's great stuff. Another drummer I feel like you might get a kick out of is Chris Turner, who's primarily a metal drummer who just released a solo drum album. Any of his one-take playthroughs for his current album are brain-shattering!
Thank you for the kind comment. Also thanks for the suggestions
Good call on Chris Turner. As well, if you want to go deep on Garstka's influences (which overlap so many of mine / why I find such an affinity for MG), it goes something like this:
- Dave Weckl
- Chris Coleman
- Calvin Rodgers
- Stuart Copeland
- Dennis Chambers
- Vinnie Colaiuta
what's crazy is he composes everything in protools before sitting down and attempting to play it. Apparently this took a week to get clean and show ready
The mix is amazing!
Tony: I'm gonna go back 15 seconds so I can try and understand this
Me: I'm gonna go back to the beginning to time and still not understand this.
I'm with you. Trust me lol
love seeing people finally catch on to Animals As leaders
in your video at 5:15 where you go back to replay that one section. That particular blast beat that Matt plays is so damn cool with specific accents within the blast beat making it very very unique. there was a podcast i saw with matt where he said he would like to incorporate more blast beats within his music but with accents. super cool
Yep. And we watched the dvds and tried to decipher what the drummers did! Watching SOAD live at Big Day Out a thousand times😂
Tosin, Javier, and Matt are three of the most talented musicians on the planet. So happy seeing you react to Matt's godliness.
🤟🎵 I went to see them live last year. So damn good
He makes flashy drumming fit so well with Tosin’s guitar style.
what a band they are. Matt is absolutely next level as is their lead guitarist tosin abasi. I would love to see you check out monomyth play through next!
Javier is no slouch my guy. How dare you not mention his name lol.
For real! Tosin’s a madman, for sure. But I’d say Javiers playing resonates with me more.
@@iancampbell5493 javiars latin flare gets me going i gotta say
Matt (alongside recording amazing playthrough videos) actually has transcribed all of his drums parts for the album this song is off and has it on his website. I am a guitarist and I picked up a copy because I wanted to see his mind on paper like that. I highly recommend checking them out!
Hell yea!
TFW when you realize there’s actually no bassist and only 2 guitarists
Garstka recently put out a video of his thought process when creating the metering for Monomyth. Matt's in-depth analysis is a great look into how his drumming brain works. Highly recommend!
No bassist yo!!... Absolutely amazing band, one of my favs..
Full band video : the Dunlop sessions has the interviews inbetween each track, or the live in Anaheim 2020 for the best sound
Garska is another level. This performance blew me away.
Highly recommend you checking out Sleep Token. The drummer from those is outstanding.
this would be what aliens listen to
The Meinl channel has a ton of well filmed and produced content, and it doesn't hurt that some of the best, most boundary pushing drummers are sponsored by them. Highly recommend the playthrough of "Ancient Kingdom" by Brann Dailor of Mastodon. Great drumwork and a completely gorgeous kit. Love the content, keep on keepin on 🤙🤙🤙🤙
You should check out his playthrough of Monomyth, the whole song is base on groupings in this order: 2 3 3 2 2 3
Thanks for doing this reaction. I adore Matt's playing. Next on the list of drummers is Gavin Harrison! You won't regret it, he's the next drummer alive.
top tier band and drummer
and it’s crazy because there is no bass player, just the two guitars have a ridiculous number of strings keeping this together
Matt is a Beast among Beasties as a metal drummer/composer. But seeing him as a guest on VF Jams with Ghost Note behind him elevated him to absolute #1 in my book. His delicate and complex style there is like contrasting Mitch Mitchell to John Bonham... only Matt is apparently BOTH! 😳
More Animals as Leaders here. Gotta gree with the rest of the comments about checking out the rest of the album as well "The Brain Dance" and maybe "Arithmophobia" and "Ectogenesis".
There was such a cool Thall moment in the middle there. Very un-AAL, but really nice.
Speaking of Thall. Check out Vildhjarta, their new album is so interesting. Their sound is specific to them
Oh this is a sick channel! you HAVE to look at some more Animals as Leaders. Greatest band alive
Great reaction, great drummer, great band. They definitely make people scratch their heads and grin. If you're into more instrumental bands, The Arsitocrats will seriously blow your mind. Marco Minneman is Gaska, with more time playing.
Matt garstka turned into JACKED garstka in like 3 years. Lol
First time hearing/seeing this, but this is the shit. Meinl playthrough videos always look and sound incredible.
there are 2 type of humans : those who had their brain blowned by AAL, and those who's not...yet
You should definitely react to Anesthetize by Porcupine Tree
Got news for you, there is no bass players. There are two guitarists both of them being eight string players and Tosin Abasi has otherworldly techniques that cover slapping and pulling reminiscent of base technique and other percussive techniques mixed with alternate picking legato you name it. This is a group for those that simply love the art of music for the technical as well as the aesthetic and sound aspects
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
That's going to make further videos very fun
Brooo Blood Sugar Sex Magic was a game changer
🙏🏼❤️
I refuse to believe this is a human being. An advanced android from the future, either that or sorcery.
I think you should react to Archspire!
Matt Gartska, ladies and gentlemen.
He can’t just be a human and modulate between duple and triple pulses, he’s got to throw quintuples in there too. Also I think those syncopated hits you were trying to feel out were giving me the sense that they took a more traditional duplet-grouped rhythm and just sort of converted it to a quintuplet pulse and let the accents fall on the nearest equivalent beat.
I think you are right. How cool is this stuff. I love music 🎶 🎵
Watched almost all your videos so far, Love your insights, I think you would like the Band The Aristocrats . please do a reaction of the song ''blues f*ckers '' the drummer is just amazing.
Ok sweet. I'll check it out. Thanks!
I was lucky enough to see marco minneman live at the modern drummer drum festival... Holy shit.. hes an 👽 as well haha
best band.
You should check out Dirty Loops, Its a Quincy Jones produced band fusion band but with super catchy pop hooks. Work Shit Out should be a great song to react it
Hey Tony. I marched with David Vaughns, Jeff Barber, and others in the 90s. I study Garstka's music on the daily - he's currently my biggest inspiration and influence for where I'm headed next. Most of this song is, believe it or not, in a very straight forward 4/4, 7/4, and 3/4. The super interesting work surrounds the displacement and modulation groupings. Also - you probably know this by now, but there is no bass player. Two 8 string guitarists who are on the same level, or higher, than Matt is, on their own instruments respectively. Lastly, I'm finally working on a channel as well, and, if you're interested, will reach out for some collab when it's up.
Oh shit! Dave was a tech when I marched. I see him pretty often when we have him as ax guest judge for Seahawks Drumline auditions. Same with Jeff here and there. Let me know when your channel is up and rolling
love this, love AAL, go hawks
I would love to see your take on Sebastian Lanser, ex drummer for Obscura
He has videos where he explains how he composes this tracks if you want to get into the weeds
It's two guitarist and matt😱 wild, no bass here
That is wild for sure
@5:35 Vildjharta has entered the chat. Lol.
There is no bass player my friend,it’s 2 height string guitars,the 2 upper strings make the bass,take à look of a video from Tosin Abasi and Yavier Reyes,this band is from another World!Awesome
His drumming is sublime, it feels like everything is where it should be when he plays.
Should checkout cafo live by animals as leaders he kills it live on that track: ua-cam.com/video/DzqUdY8HEv0/v-deo.html
sick, crazy drummer from hell😑😑
Fun fact, there ain't a bass player there! Just two 8-string guitars!
So wild and cool
Animals as leaders, your favorite bands favorite band. Well, if you’re into progressive stuff. You’ll often find some big names sitting in the audience at their shows.
I can imagine. I'm still thinking about this days after
AAL may well be the most influensal band there has been last decade.
Seattle? Damn, sorry man for the near future breaking and entering when your setup disappears lol
"the bass player"
He doesn't know... He doesn't know. Nobody told him? Should we tell him? Maybe we should tell him.
Lmao yea, they told me. 🤣 How cool is this band 🎶🤟
Wait until the #nobass realization hits
I had no clue until folks in the comments told me my mind was definitely blown
@@DrumRollTonyReacts your channel will continue to experience massive growth. Your takes and insight keep me coming back. Thank you my guy
Thanks for doing this. Though it wasn't a response my request, I appreciate it all the same. Subbing for more great content like this! Monomyth is a great drum cam. It was the last song they created for their recently released album and the writing started off with some of the crazy stuff Matt was holding onto from his own brainstorming. He just released a second video on it where he breaks down the patterns.
Cool reaction, knowing your recent interest in "Asian rock", I had a couple of Japanese bands in mind to recommend to you... maybe next time, I preferred to broaden the spectrum instead, with something a bit different... two of the brightest young Japanese female drummers.
Senri Kawaguchi: ua-cam.com/video/mTyU1D1tFPM/v-deo.html and
Kanade Sato: ua-cam.com/video/5jDVZPzfS1c/v-deo.html
Highly recommended.😎
Animals As Leaders is my new favourite band, their latest album is SICK (in the best possible way) and a breath of fresh air in a world of increasingly boring musical cowardice.
wait till he finds out they dont have a bassist
Matt is out of controln
Math Garstka
And then I told him there wasn’t a bassist
plot twist... theres no bass player for this band... never has been. 8 string guitars
chris turners triggered. a drummers dream
What did you think of the live show???
It was pretty fun BUT lol
I got in the middle of the pit and folks went nuts instead of listening to music lol lol
I gambled and lost
@DrumRollTonyReacts yup that was me - in the pit, fresh out of high school (back in 2012 or so) and had the time of my life, I remember I couldn't believe I was actually seeing them ! I remember Tosin brought out some weird prototype guitar just for tooth & claw
Matt is insane and one of the best drummers alive right now. I highly recommend looking up Blake Richardson of Between the Buried and Me for another monster drummer unlike anyone else. He has some sick playthroughs of new songs like "Fix the Error" and "Revolution in Limbo"
Him and Alex rudinger are badasses too I just love Matt for my top spot
Crossed Bones. It's you?
Its from a text book only 6 "people" can read lol
No bass player lmaooo just guitars
06:17 - But there is no BASS player.. :)
Lol yea. I had no clue. What a bad ass band!
There's no bass, just tosin and javier
There is actually no bass player in animals as leaders
No bass player, just 2 8-string guitars.
The guitar part is the bass lol they have no bassist
Lol yep. You and like 80 other comments have pointed that out
But what he didn’t know is, there is no bass player.
No bass player. Two 8 string guitars and drums
Preface my comment with I think Matt is one of the best drummers on the planet...my only criticism is I hate when drummers play a groove with a crash cymbal, he does it alot...over a ride or hi hat or china etc. Just a sound preference...his playing is otherworldly
Animals as Leaders has no bass player. The guitar is bassed.
Bass player...
...yup...
...definitely.
Not a dig on you. They sound GREAT.
It's an easy mistake to make.
They are just 2x 8-strings and a drummer.
Yeah, Garstka is one of the best drummers alive. Matt Halpern is also an absolute UNIT and in the same genre. I like Halpern just a bit more though.
> *bass player*
kek
no bass player...
This is NO match for Lars Ulric😅
There is no bass player.
*checks my textbooks* .... Yeah this wasn't in there 🫤
