I play drums as a hobby and record myself. This song took me about 10 - 20 minutes to learn, and then another 6 months to play it all the way through up to speed with the record without my arms feeling like they would fall off around the 1:45 point.
It is the same riff ad nauseam, over and over again, hypnotic efficiency at its best. Worth mentioning as godlike genius riffs: Dead Souls and Atrocity Exhibition.
Seeing how Ian was totally connected with Stephen's drum beat with his dancing during this performance is beautiful ❤. Hypnotic drumming can change an individuals perception of reality for the better, albeit for only for 3 minutes. RIP Ian 🙏🏼 ❤
Amazing energy and co-ordination - even manages to open the hihat to create an accent at two points. Very difficult to do in coordination with the bass drum.
Fucking do it’s in my home, google it Rialto Builidings Broughton Salford, spoke to Ian and had 3 cigarettes with him on the Thursday before they was leaving to play New York, he died on the Saturday night, hooky drove me home in his jaguar numerous times, pinky’s and as next door which was a venue we all played at, endless stories certain ratio was in there, swamp children and nico velvet underground…. I could go on, ask morris where his earth cymbal is ?
The human beat machine
This really shows how great of a drummer he is. Wow.

Solid as a rock
I’ve always loved Stephen’s drumming. Incredible physicality and finesse here, just listen to his touch on the hihat.
Thank you for posting this

Lol good one
Drummers' brains are something else.
It’s only the live version here with the beautiful fills towards the end everyone who covers it never adds them
Too good
