"This beat was composed to be a simple accompaniment to Justin's beautiful bass line. Being in a compound time of 12/8 (5/8 + 7/8), the main goal was to let the natural pulse of the melody come through and keep it simple enough to let Maynard's polyrhythmic phrasing in 3 come through unscathed. The transition into the pre-chorus was done with the same intent but was a little more jerky due to the added beat that moved the time into 13/8 (6/8 + 7/8)."

  • The Grudge is ...

    The Grudge is another great song with flowing time signatures. For the longest time I hated that song until it clicked how everything flowed - now it's just plain amazing.

  • The time signature ...

    The time signature progression is actually pretty confusing, but the way Danny organizes the beats it makes them flow very easily; as opposed to most drummers who just start the bar when it's supposed to start regardless of what they were playing prior.

  • I hear heaps of ...

    I hear heaps of people saying 'well that's not hard' Its a beat not a solo even the best drummers use like, a straight 8 when its needed. it's the creative thought and brilliance and precision that go into beats like this that make the song the best it can be
