Meshuggah - Light The Shortening Fuse Drum Cover

Repost from our drummer Les
"I made a last minute decision that, before going in for surgery, I'd do a test run covering a tune. What better tune to pick from than Meshuggah's latest track "Light The Shortening Fuse". The fluffy slippers make it groovier.
Samples from GetGood Drums - Invasion (send me free shit plz)" - Les

Freaking love those ghost notes!
Well played!

[@pravitas5841]

Thanks a lot!!

[@AvalancheFan2633]

This shit is so tight man. Keeping that high hat going with the snare ghost notes and then the right foot doing something completely different is so challenging. Nice job homie

[@markusvali1343]

Super tight playing

[@t-man5196]

Damn that is some insanely technical and insanely difficult drumming, how long did this take you to learn?

[@pravitas5841]

About a week! Thank you so much mate.

[@deathonion404]

Awesome but why not the whole song

[@lesharrison-drums7629]

God's honest opinion this was my last take - I wasn't happy with the outro but couldn't reshoot as it was getting past an acceptable time for the neighbours... The joys of apartment drumming 😔

[@NanoverseProductions]

Dude what drum kit is that?

[@rinzfxp]

curious how you're counting the guitar pattern over top (to match the accents with)

[@lesharrison-drums7629]

In the intro the guitar loop is 13 beats long (3 bars and a beat). In the section after the verse it's 14 beats (3 1/2 bars). The guitars only play singles and pairs, except for the runs in the intro. So it's just a case of internalising what the repeating pattern is and putting it over 4/4

[@hdrevolution123]

How does it feel to play this?

[@pravitas5841]

It feels great! such a groover

[@surgerator]

Can anyone tell me the kit that is being used here?

[@lesharrison-drums7629]

It's a Millennium MPS-850, which is triggering the GGD Invasion library. It's cheap and cheerful and gets the job done, although over time it's started to fall apart a bit
