There is actually a song called Bleed by Meshuggah, you should give it a listen if you like metal.

[–]samm3l 11 points12 points ago

Then you should try to play it on drums.

[–]KnowsShitFromShinola 6 points7 points ago

Ugh... Hands 4/4 with the snare on 3, feet doing a 3/16 pattern that I can't even mimic with my hands at the proper tempo. Thomas Haake is a beast.

Played the song for a classical musician friend of mine last night and he said, "That's really impressive, I need to hear more of this."

[–]samm3l 7 points8 points ago

Most people I know instantly ignore it because "it's metal", which is really sad since a whole lot of metal songs have so much work put into them. Your friend is an intelligent person.

[–]KnowsShitFromShinola 4 points5 points ago

He's also the music director for my church and although he enjoys including all kinds of music in the services (mostly to make people realize the inherent worth in different styles) he did tell me, "I don't think I can work that one in too well." Made me laugh.

No, no I don't think you can work Meshuggah into a church service very well. Although I'd be interested to see Bleed sung by a choir and accompanied by a classical pianist.

Little fast aint it? Mash rock, sure it's technically magnificent. I mean, you know where to put your fingers and all

[–]buckethead-- 1 point2 points ago

Don't feel bad, Haake told in an interview that it took him weeks of practice to get that pattern down.

[–]KnowsShitFromShinola 1 point2 points ago

Yep, and as soon as you get one section of it down, he goes and changes it just a little bit but enough to completely throw off any kind of muscle memory you have built up from the previous part.

[–]pseudorealism 1 point2 points ago

As a college freshman, I had to take those maligned fluff courses, so I chose history of rock and roll. The professor was the director of my school's band and he really liked Meshuggah, so much so that one day after class I was going to the grocery store and he was leaving for the day (going out the back of campus, which is closest to the grocery store) and I caught him with the windows down playing air drums to obZen.

[–]BantamBasher135 3 points4 points ago

I love you guys. Came here for the 1/100000 chance that someone thought Bleed by Meshuggah.

[–]WillSnipeForPie[!] 2 points3 points ago

It's the first thing I thought of haha. My drummer buddy is trying to learn it but he complains about the muscle burn after about 15 seconds.

[–]Kinggod13 7 points8 points ago

\m/>.<\m/ the post is referring to Meshuggah right?

[–]FHSlaughter 6 points7 points ago

He's a rebel.

[–]TearTea 8 points9 points ago

He's a rebel.

"[...] the song is Bleed" - shredder94

There, looks better now.

[–]Very_Juicy 6 points7 points ago

I don't get why this happens, there is a subreddit for the sole purpose of not having YT comments all over /r/funny, and still this gets tolerated by the /r/funny mods.

[–]godmademetakei 1 point2 points ago

Why is your comment getting downvoted? This was dragged from its proper subreddit to this one unjustly.

[–]PeenutButterTime -3 points-2 points ago

Because it's funny. you can't call the whole subreddit "funny" and exclude things that are funny. It's blasphemy!

[–]TheMooner 4 points5 points ago

""I Think the song is Bleed." -shredder94"" -RawrMeansRoar

[–]mustardjones 2 points3 points ago

"You magnificent bastard."

--mustardjones

[–]BiGEyE-6 2 points3 points ago

can i reference you on my resume?

[–]mustardjones 0 points1 point ago

Sure. You can also use it as a blurb for your next book if you want.

[–]BiGEyE-6 0 points1 point ago

can you say "BiGEyE-6 is a very diligent worker and is reliable" So i can use that to reference you.

[–]TearTea 0 points1 point ago

Looks like you have an unnecessary quotation mark there, after the ""-shredder94"".

[–]TheMooner 0 points1 point ago

Damn, you're right

[–]nacho93 1 point2 points ago

Bleed by who, op? Who has a the song named blee that these commenters speak of.

[–]Rhamsody 3 points4 points ago

Probably by meshuggah, its one of their most popular songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qc98u-eGzlc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

[–]hazelmon 1 point2 points ago

[–]harakirii[S] 2 points3 points ago

Congratulations! I actually did find it there. :D

[–]nacho93 0 points1 point ago
