As a diehard Meshuggah fan, I would like to make a statement. Troy was created a new alternate ending for 'Stengah.. With a little 'Electric Red' twist. The result of drinking coffee with a lot of 'Shuggah.
Troy, why did you decid at 0:50-1:04 to hit the cymbals after the actual guitar note? It's then being hit on the quarter note, but that doesn't sound right. I'm curious.
While I really enjoyed your other covers like Happy and such, it's really nice to see you keep on going with Metal and more importantly Meshuggah :] Great cover as always
I heard someone say that when a metronome wants to keep time it listens to Thomas Haake. It shows with this song. For a song that's not relatively as fast as like future breed machine or the demon's name is surveillance or even bleed, it sure is complex.
As a diehard meshuggah fan (as written below), i just want to say this is a veeery fucking brilliant cover. You nailed the song, you nailed the ghost notes, the cymbals, and its good to hear your own ideas in this song. Now i have to watch it ten times more.
Same here. First Meshuggah song I ever heard about 7 years ago now. I was learning guitar and was looking for bands that used extended range guitars. May the Swedes live long and make us all grateful for having ears.
Troy, I'm a huge fan of your drumming - you obviously really take your time learning all the nooks and crannies of the grooves and patterns and it's really refreshing to see that you're willing to share all this with us fellow musicians! Meshuggah are one of my favourite bands and you really do their songs justice! Much love from the UK! P.S. Would love to see you cover some Chimp Spanner songs, particularly The Mirror from At The Dream's Edge!
Awww The ending beat on the toms is one on my favorite Meshuggah parts for limb separation.. I like what ya did in lieu but man.. I love the last tom beat.
So sick. Would love to see you attack the snare just a touch more, that's one of the things that makes Steve Judd so rad, he puts every ounce of intention into every single snare hit to push things forward and extract every bit of aggression from a groove and it definitely translates. Great work mate.
Awesome cover. I really like the liberties you took, sounded really good. My favorite part was probably the guitar solo background, so full of trickery :D
Nice job. A pleasure to watch as always. I did feel you added a couple things that isnt in the studio release of that track but who can blame you... i bet that is a blast to play :-)
This is the result of jamming to a certain song for many years I guess. I notice that the way Troy plays feels quite different from Tomas, it's nice to hear.
didnt think this song was so tricky until i watched this vid. i mean i can get the non pedal grooves fine, on the hat and snare but when youre doing 8ths on hat and having to remember the weird kick shit that gets tricky. but i love it.
It's easy if you remember that there are repeating patterns within the phrase that don't always stick to 2 and 4. In fact with Meshuggah songs they almost never do
Troy, I've always had trouble with the fill at 3:30, I am educated in reading music and I was wondering if you could message me the general pattern of that fill. It's the only part I can't get right! Thank you, you are a huge inspiration.
Excelent as always! I'm a guitarist and electronic music producer, but your covers makes me wanna buy a kit and get good at the drums. My suggestion for next video: Marrow or Swarm from Koloss , AAL's The Woven Web or maybe a medley from Sol Niger Within.
The original track from 2002, and use of that tasty ride, which Haake dropped at some point. You've made some good choices. I'm following your work in Plini. With this Plini guy :D Kinda curious how serious can it be, ke? ;) All the best man! Pozdro666

Damn! This was 3 years ago!
Shiiiiit.
Damn! This was 2 years ago!

damn, you commented this 3 years ago!
Damn this was 3 years ago!
Attention to detail is insanely good. There are so many clever nuances. I really enjoyed this! No such thing as too many Chinas haha
The ghost notes always gets me...
Yes, you can always, pour some 'shuggah on me.
Tyler Cox Goteem!
2:30-2:40 that is one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard
What is that, quintuplets on the china?
The drum transcript is free you just have to sign up to my site! Cheers

amjan It's just the slide in of the guitar that you are actually hearing. All fine! ;-)
One of the most technical songs to ever be released for drummers, mad respect for this.
You are literally the only UA-cam drum cover-er I like.
Drums only version: Meshuggah - Stengah (Drums Only Version) by Troy Wright
Every time I see his video I get a felling I should really hit the gym... then the video ends and I am back to old me xD
While I really enjoyed your other covers like Happy and such, it's really nice to see you keep on going with Metal and more importantly Meshuggah :]
Great cover as always

the new album slays fucking amazing "clockworks" is unbeliveable
These are the moments when i get truly relaxed, listening to Meshuggah :)
Facts
Like I'm super relax in the song straws pulled at random
So far, 22 non-drummers have watched this video. This guy shows an unreal level of talent and dedication.
That was the most fucking intense drum cover I've seen in my entire life.
Spectacular!!
1:44 is one of my favorite Meshuggah drum riffs of all time!

I like how Troy keeps his hi-hats going when he's not playing it in every song...something I can't do even if I tried!! Keep on drummin bro!!🤘🏾👍🏻
There's no telling how many times I've seen this video. I love your spin on this song, it's really awesome. Great cover.
My last words are:
"FUCKING AWESOME COVER AND THE PLAYABILITY IN THE DRUMS IS INCREDIBLE"
You're the man Troy.
Same here. First Meshuggah song I ever heard about 7 years ago now. I was learning guitar and was looking for bands that used extended range guitars. May the Swedes live long and make us all grateful for having ears.
This is a whole 'nother level of mastery. Kudos, man.
This song looks so tricky. Not fast, just tricky.
Good job!
That was so sick! definitely the best cover of Stengah, the embellishments were well done!
Yes finally back to metal! This one was fucking great. Your technique is just inspiring

P.S. Would love to see you cover some Chimp Spanner songs, particularly The Mirror from At The Dream's Edge!
Great and sounds great too. Glad you're making videos again.
That was a sick fill at 3:30
Awww
The ending beat on the toms is one on my favorite Meshuggah parts for limb separation.. I like what ya did in lieu but man.. I love the last tom beat.
If I'm counting it correctly, I'm pretty sure it's an 11 over 4 polyrhythm.
I love Meshuggah and you always fuckin kill it! Awesome job and great tones as always. Well done!
Youre so accurate! Simply astonishing!
best cover ever...original, dynamic, love it!
Long live Troy Wright! Amazing cover man!
Sooo clean! Like oh my god, this is more impressive then any bleed cover.
The one I've been waiting for!
When Thomas Haake is ill, they can call you for the drumming part.
Always a great day when you drop a new vid ;-)
Thanks a lot for this video! Waited so much for another Meshuggah cover from you!
I've been waiting for this one!!
Absolutely beautiful performance !
That was absolutely badass.
So sick. Would love to see you attack the snare just a touch more, that's one of the things that makes Steve Judd so rad, he puts every ounce of intention into every single snare hit to push things forward and extract every bit of aggression from a groove and it definitely translates. Great work mate.
this is just amazing. love all your vids but the work on this one is supreme
Thanks for sharing this with us. Really appreciate it!
SNARE TONE 2 SICK
great job. i am learning this song now and the transcription has made it a lot easier!
This is the best cover I've seen. Amazing!
Awesome cover. I really like the liberties you took, sounded really good. My favorite part was probably the guitar solo background, so full of trickery :D
finally! Been waiting for this :D
Another great cover fair play! Love that song
Absolutely brutal just like everything you do. Congrats!
Personally, I love my coffee and tea with a bit of SHUGGAH.
*badumtss*
How can someone dislike this?
Nice job. A pleasure to watch as always. I did feel you added a couple things that isnt in the studio release of that track but who can blame you... i bet that is a blast to play :-)
Flawless drumming as usual! You never seem to disappoint:-)
you're jiving so hard!!! Well done sir!
You're amazing man. Just amazing.
Love your ghost notes.
This is amazing... So amazing...
Another awesome cover, congrats!
so tasteful! great interpretation
This is the result of jamming to a certain song for many years I guess. I notice that the way Troy plays feels quite different from Tomas, it's nice to hear.
This made my new earbuds happy.
Nailed it once again!

This is a damn good cover...props to ya
2:33 is incredible
Dude! 2:30 what the crap! so cool. also, this is a great cover. bravo sir.
Jesus , dude you rock man
Holy shit what a performance my hat off to you dude
Hey Troy, if you can, could you please do a full cover of Spasm? Loving the videos, you're a phenomenal drummer man!
Oh damn, I just read your comment below saying your cover of Spasm was blocked. That's a shame :(
You are the BEST!! I love your work!!!!!!! It is satisfaction for my soul :D
Troy, I've always had trouble with the fill at 3:30, I am educated in reading music and I was wondering if you could message me the general pattern of that fill. It's the only part I can't get right! Thank you, you are a huge inspiration.
And when you think the song couldn't get better...
SICK COVER-AMAZING-I wish the sm57 Snare mic would pic up the ghost notes a TAd more.....
Tasty drum rolls I don't remember from the album!
Excelent as always!
I'm a guitarist and electronic music producer, but your covers makes me wanna buy a kit and get good at the drums.
My suggestion for next video: Marrow or Swarm from Koloss , AAL's The Woven Web or maybe a medley from Sol Niger Within.
I mean, honestly, even if it's not note-for-note, it's still pretty freakin' great.
Awesome cover
Great cover. Glad to see your Pridgen Sticks as well :)
Hey Troy, super beast cover. Just wondering how you like the Zen China?
