    1:20 Caleb walks up with the perfectly timed cymbal choke. Nice. I guess Caleb does write and play all of the instruments on their records. So he knows all if the parts in each song really well. As simple as this cymbal choke may appear, it really does make that part sound a lot more badass than of the cymbal just rang out

    • @elijerrr
      @elijerrr 6 років тому +2

      Mex Hurms first off, is that a trash talk photo in your icon? If so, very rad. Secondly, I checked that part out and I’m pretty sure you just create these fills very simply by doing RLRL with the hands followed by RL with the feet, and in different combinations. It’s pretty much one of the most common metalcore combination fills that you basically can create by hitting different parts on the kit (between snare and toms of course). I hope that makes sense.
