REACTION PLAYLIST ► ua-cam.com/play/PLqspKksRqaUURy8K34sBSKvuGo3ApmLC2.html
Drums & Coffee!
🥁☕🙌
II recently did a number of songs off their new album "Take Me Back to Eden" for Drumeo with an interview of his thought behind his approaches and breakdowns to his drumming. ua-cam.com/video/FOQJTiIwwEA/v-deo.html
You should check the new video DRUMIO put out on II's drumming, they have a whole session and a separeted video on the song "The Summoning". Truly a masterpiece!
What an absolute Chad move to be this incredible world class drummer and not put your name out LMAO
Yup!
Itd be hard though to not get the recognition you deserve
@@coreyw5981 except he is getting recognition, he’s just not obsessed with his own identity and name like humans are taught to be.
@@mallacoda1 DW freaking noticed hom finally!
II
I'm a relatively new fan of Sleep Token, and I can say between II's drumming and Vessel's voice this band has earned themselves a life long fan.
This drummer is out of this world… with all due respect, I don’t give a fuck the ultra fast or flashy style, his sense is of music, rythm and space is way better and beyond that!
Yup. Just right in the pocket the whole way. Killer time and feel
Dare I say he’s John Bonham level?
check out ken bedene of aborted. watch him play cadaverous banquet. dude is insane with speed AND he does a jazzy bit in that song too.
I would say not quite yet... but II is well on his way. His pocket is tasty.@@leonc100
@@leonc100Jon Bonham is overrated.
It's how effortless II makes this look for me. I know a lot of how effortless this looks has to do with not being able to see his face, but his movements are so fluid and fast. drummers are always so impressive to me, but II is just in another league
They're posting another offering from II on their channel tomorrow. You should definitely check it out!
Oh nice! Thank you
@@AndrewRooneyDrums it’s going to be good! Its my second favourite Sleep Token track!
@@trfbassman902 And now, I can confirm... it is superb
@@lejlateletovic5225 agreed!
Sleep token take it right to the edge of overplaying, but it always comes out perfect. Amazing drummer
I don't know Aidan. Sounds great to me!!!
It looks like you aren't subbed!? Help me hit 100K!
ua-cam.com/users/RooneyDrums
@@AndrewRooneyDrums subbed now. Another video to try would be thornhill's the haze drum playthrough. Ben maida is a very different drummer but still very good
He kills it actually better live its insane, i have not heard someone this good in modern music i wish you could have hear the singing . this was a instrumental, the singer is a virtuoso he writes all of it
High Water by Sleep Token has an astounding drum part.
This is one of my favorite snare tones of all time. And yes, I realize part of it is how he plays it too. Perfect technique for that pop.
Yup slammin'!
Hitting that snare like it has an unpaid debt. The best dude
I grew up listening to Rush and Dream Theater with my Dad, later on to Tool, and in my younger years a lot of deathcore and the like, and seriously II is the only drummer I had to see to make sense of, if you just listen to some of their songs you'd be convinced he had 3 arms. He's on a level I didn't even know existed.
Same here! Prior to II, my favorite was Portnoy.
He’s so sick. Hypnosis stays more in one lane genre-wise compared to others in their catalog, but “next-level” is such a great way to describe the approach here. He probably could have easily gotten away with a more straightforward groove, but the hat work and fills in the verses elevate the song to much higher levels. You definitely should check it out with vocals, too. Vessel’s voice and lyricism are unmatched in my book. Worship.
Oh man you gotta dive deep into their discography. The Offering is absolutely a great place to start.
Thank you!
What a drummer. First time I've seen this guy play. There discography is so out there
He reminds me of Abe Cunningham from the Deftones between the pocket, the crisp fills, the accents and dynamic work.
Great call!
Also reminds me of Dan Searle from Architects with his play style and similar fill structures.
I thought the same thing upon hearing them the first time. Abe is my all time favorite drummer. This dude rips for sure.
One of us. One of us. One of us.
Honestly part of the reason I love watching your channel are the great community picks that result in the discovery of new bands. I will have to check sleep token out properly later this afternoon!
Thanks again for the great content! 👍
Worship brother, you won’t regret it
Join us🙏🏻
Welcome to the club. You should really check out their music offline (singer included.) The ambiance these guys create as a team is second to none. (worship)
Yup super good stuff here
@@AndrewRooneyDrums thank you for the reply sir! Gonna take my opportunity to point you back at Elliot Hoffman. He has released a bunch of new live stuff with good sound quality. GOAT!
Duuuude YESSS. what a sick playthrough! I'd love to see a reaction to the original with vocals!!!!
SO GOOD!
The original has vocals and they’re amazing, but I think he wanted to use an instrumental version to focus on the drumming. The vocalist is incredible…probably the most noteworthy member of the band.
Sounds good. But these play throughs are awesome for focusing on the drums
Wow, OFF THE SCALE AWESOME, thanks for highlighting. There are so many levels to this, that’s the real deal total package right there, fantastic to watch, cheers 😎 🤘🏻 🤘🏻 🤘🏻 🙂
He's an absolute unit. Worship.
The drummer is also a drum teacher. Creative guy, stunning skill. Thanks for reviewing this, love seeing people smile and experience Sleep Token for the first time. This is a particular treat for you to see the drummer first, too.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how fucking glorious that kit sounds!?
Matching microphone diaphragm size to tom size. Gives you the full dynamic frequency range of the toms.
Beast of a drummer! And what a great band! 👌🤘🤘
seeing them live is so good. one of the fewer acts i've seen that sound just as good, or even better in person vs recording!
I was waiting for this I knew you would react to this! I saw this guy live last month, he is an actual alien. His fills are of the charts
I'm soooo glad you did this song. This drummer kicks ass in this song.
I am new to sleep token..... but I am not new to music... this drummer stands out..... his fills ...his sense of music is insane..... what he brings to music is at a different level......he doesn't have a talent.
..he has a gift....
I discover so much new music through your channel, thanks! This was crazy, definitely gonna check this band out.
This band is great! Love this mystery and the musicianship .. brilliant
Yes this is class!
Thank you so much for covering this! Sleep Token is so underrated.
I play the guitar, but I've ALWAYS wanted to learn drums, but the first time I tried I couldn't for the life of me manage to hold one beat with the bass drum, and another with the sticks. So much respect to drummers, because I cannot wrap my mind around how the brain is able to do that.
I love watching drummer reactions. It helps me when I react. I love learning more about drums.
Love the band, seen them twice now and blew me away both times, definitely worth watching one with vocals included too!
Very nice, best I have heard in awhile. The snare pops, the drums sound really good.
Seriously. This is the highest level of musicianship, indeed. This is what it's like to be blessed to enough to see an absolute master doing his(?) thing. He's so clearly confident and comfortable. Sheesh.
I LOVE watching people's first reaction to Sleep Token. Truly heartwarming 🙏
I knew it would only be a matter of time before you discovered my favorite band Andrew, you got quite the rabbit hole to jump into!
So good Tyler
Saw this yesterday for the first time live on @drumlion and I was stunned how smooth and accurate and in the pocket. Entrancing.
You are such a LEGEND! Seriously. You link everything you can in support of everyone and everything you react to and you are open minded and appreciatetive. Worship!
🙏
Too kind
Sleep token is other worldly in their talent. I was hooked the moment I first heard them, absolutely incredible band. My wife and I have our suspicions that Gail Ann Dorsey (David Bowie's bass player) is Sleep Tokens bass player, they move exactly the same on stage and are of similar height and build.
Oh nice. We will see...
This open guitar part in the verse lends so much room for fills. And i love how he places them at different points in the sequence. Theyre not all at the same time in the riff
You should react to the version with vocals so you can witness the otherworldly experience that is Sleep Token.
Worship!
I'm surprised you haven't reacted to more recent songs especially since the Drumeo release including the interview with II
Had the pleasure of seeing Sleep Token in concert. The drums definitely hold up live.
the thing I think I love the most about his playing is how he uses the cymbals. The timbre and texture choices are just so enjoyable. He delays a lot of the punchy elements too which is also satisfying. Snare tuning is noice!
Yeah, i have known of Sleep Token for probably about a year now... Vessel 2 has a interesting style, in how upright he sits on the kit.. Personally i think it highlights his drumming style, getting to see his overall playing style and technique.. Sleep Token is an amazing band also everything thing have ever released has been Very captivating....
So happy you got to enjoy II
🙌WORSHIP🙌
Amazing
What a stellar drummer.
The song is amazing with vocals . But waiting for a long time for the drum play though - amazing - and love your reactions
Worship
Yeeees!! Some Sleep Token love!!! They are awesome
This is crazy good
I never thought I'd say this, but Neil Peart ( RIP. I adore your playing and legacy), this drummer with ST has been blessed and has permanently commanded my attention and will not let go!
Good morning Andrew... Wow that was great...I've heard of S.T. before but first time listening to them..That is an awesome sounding kit..I like the micing techniques to get different sounds from each drum..This guy is show serious restraint a lot of players would go nuts with the fills to round out the sound but this guy's pocket was yes so crisp it was like lettuce lol...Thx Andrew... Peace..
Sleep Token is quickly becoming one of my favorite bands. The sheer raw talent both Vessel has on vocals, keyboards and piano and II has on drums just wow, I cannot wait for them to get bigger and more recognition. I could listen to II jam all day.
Mmmm, as much as I love utter insanity in 400bpm blasts and double bass etc, this is just something else entirely. Absolutely gorgeous.
Imagine if we somehow got Danny Carey, Mike Portnoy and II in the same room, I'd be in drumming nirvana.
The Hi-hat work and use of space reminds me of Paul Seidel
Great call!!!
Yep , another humbling video !
As for drum Mics .
I have two rules .
1. try all your Mics and see what works best . ( I've got so many Mics! )
2. use whatever you have . ( I haven't got enough Mics! )
Peace and love brother ✌ 💚
Good call Springy! Just utilise what you have :)
Awesome!!!! I did not even knew they released an official drum play through until I saw on your channel and Craig Reynold's.
Thanks so much for reacting to it and Vessel II is indeed an incredible drummer, very underrated, with some serious pocket and tasteful fills! Hope we can see more of those :)
Yeah this is serious playing!
Using that bass drum mic on a floor Tom is such a good trick yo getting a massive low end sound. Been using it at my church for a few years now 🙌🏼
That is exactly how I felt the first time I saw them!
I’d love to see more sleep token on the channel
Which songs!?
@@AndrewRooneyDrums I like the offering, Atlantic, higher, and gods to name a few. There’s a good amount of diversity between those songs as well.
@@AndrewRooneyDrums I’m not too familiar with the channel so I don’t know if you do non isolated drum reactions but I’ll find out soon enough
My favorite band!!!!
Sleep Token is just beautiful.
The less is more masterclass.
this dude got some clean ass chops
Yup
Dramatic prairie dog meme just warms my heart
Not only is the drummer phenomenal but the vocalist is as well. NOBODY sings like that guy in metal music. Nobody. Check their regular music out asap! You'll be glad you did.
His tone definitely sets him apart, such a unique style that fits the cult theme.
I'm here admiring the drummers abilities while also wondering where I can grab a hoodie and mask like that. Looks cool as hell.
Crisp CRISP “Pock-ett” lol.
Man I love this channel. I wish I didn’t live pay check to pay check. Cause over the years watching you - I’ve had like a massive list accumulates of things I wish I could see you react to. But I understand why Patreon exists and why patrons obviously get to pick the songs.
But either way. I’m a fan.
Not sure if you ever do streams. But that would be an awesome way to make a lot of videos and take requests to react to on streams - so non patreons get a chance to request stuff.
And it rhay aerrinr or would be cool to request seminal bands that don’t have the massive followings or even the flashiest players. But drummers that are great Song writers - bands like Slint - where the drummer doesn’t write drum “beats” as much as composing the songs from the drums up.
slint - Washer is a great song by slint. And they recorded it in the late 80s when they were all super
Young and the drummer Britt writes amazing compositions on the drums. Saw a comment on that song thay describes his drumming as “sounding like waves crashing , swelling and rolling with the tides” and it’s a perfect description.
Love all this.
Yup have looked at streams although 66Samus got a strike doing that!
They are dropping another drum playthrough tomorrow, can't recommend enough for you to delve more in depth to their music :)
Very interesting prog stuff. I look forward to more upcoming stuff from them
Yup! Super cool
I was hoping you'd do this one! Been into Sleep Token since last year. And first listening I was like :"wooa that drummer is carrying"!!
Cheers neighbor Andrew, love your work. Keep it up! Bisous from New Caledonia
Glad you liked it!
We will get to New Caledonia one day!
never heard of them before. I'm an instant fan
Another night binge-watching your videos. I'm so happy you found Sleep Token, their music truly is a religious experience. Have you listened to other songs by now? :)
Impressive. Made me smile.
Great to hear!
II've used for "bass drum mics" (Shure Beta 52, AKG D112...) many times on floor toms and also as a second bass cabinet mic. There're no rules in recording when you know your fundamentals.
I think I just may become a cult member :)....amazing drumming and equally amazing sound
Me too! Seriously good stuff
You should check the new video DRUMIO put out on II's drumming, they have a whole session and a separeted video on the song "The Summoning". Truly a masterpiece!
Funny you mention Delta Empire … anyone ever see “2” and Delta at the same place at the same time? LOL
It was cool to watch you listening to Sleep Token for the first time and discovering the talent that exists in these folks and the quality of music they put out. “Take Me Back to Eden” is a near perfect album and you HAVE to check it out (if you haven’t already).
Also - my first time noticing his DW kit. No wonder I’m in love with “2”’s sound!
Always love a good listen to Nap Voucher.
Sounds like a local tribute act version of the band 🤔
I love this music
Andrew I hope you listen to them
They are incredible musicians, to not be known to get the accolades they deserve is a crime but it’s such a pleasure to listen to and enjoy their abilities. I discovered them late, with their new album Take Me Back To Eden but they have been out since 2019 and their debut album Sundowning and their second This Place Will Become Your Tomb is equally as epic.
I would love to see you react to their music maybe do full albums, I think you will thoroughly enjoy Sleep Token as a music fan too and not just a drummer, think of it
More on the way David!
That breakdown @3:11 is unreal. How it matches with the melody... oh man.
How II makes it look like he isn’t even trying blows my mind. WITH A MASK ON lol I don’t think many drummers could possibly hit 100% of one of their own songs blindfolded, some but rare, and I believe II could do it blindfolded with objects throw at him. He’s unreal. Best part is, that’s the idea 😈 craziest thing about him and the band is the ONE OTHER MEMBER, Vessel, has the vocals of a god. So a non-human drummer with a goddess of a voice singing. Welcome to Sleep Token.
WORSHIP!!!!!! II is an absolute beast behind the kit!!!
They released another Playthrough for II, I highly recommend!
He has dropped another offering for us to worship 🙌 go check out the new one. Dropped 5 hrs ago
I don't think I've seen a drummer that excited me this much since Joey Jordison. He gives me goosebumps just watching.
EXCELLENT!
WOW!!!!
They're the best band to come out in the last decade. A month ago I would've slapped myself for saying that, but it's the friggin truth. And hey... respect for liking their video.
Best musos cross genres. I hear ska/reggae (that pulse/groove), rock, jazz/fusion (ghost notes, sophisticated grooves), and djent/metal in this dudes playing. A very well educated musician who has listened to a lot of music and has the technical skills to pull it together.
Saw them live this past weekend, they were incredible. Everything sounded studio (after the first song, there were some audio issues, not their fault).
The best band. Seem them live in Newcastle Australia about 3 weeks ago. It was such a journey.
You actually looked away at the worst time during the breakdown and missed vessel 2 doubled handed symbol choke. That made me sad 🤣
Worship.
That snare tone is perfect to me
Unbelievable Jayson
@@AndrewRooneyDrums thank you
ST are amazing!! If you haven’t already you should react to a lot of their work, II is an amazing drummer and Vessels voice is second to none 🖤😊
Can't wait to check out more
Worship!
“The way we see it it's all for the greater good. (The greater good)”
such a tasty drummer
