British math-rockers, TTNG, create a wall of sound that transcends their numbers. Tim Collis’ frantic tapping, finger picking, and Spanish stylings form the framework for their erratic blend of delicious notation. His tablature and chord progressions are so desirable that they’ve been made available for sale. Constant, extreme chord changes in odd tunings flow over dance-able beats. Ethereal vocals swoon over bold, echoing bass lines. The drum kit delivers rim shots, cymbal pings and driving floor toms galore while transforming their ever-evolving rhythm. They write like seasoned novelists, they perform with aplomb, they are TTNG.

Math rock drumming is an extreme sport.
Wouldn't that require it to be dangerous in some way?
@@thenateyoulove well you can tear your muscles, and i'm quite sure that i could have a stroke while trying to play this song
@@thenateyoulove It is. One can lose count.....
@@martinsmit2684 NOT MY TEMPO
@@snortlag6321 Wait t’ill you hear Damon Che play lol
Everyone says hes not as good of a singer but he can play bass like a god damned boss and still sing. i give him mad respect
Even in the recordings it doesn't seem like he's striving to be a great singer, cause I don't think that's the point, his singing is a unique part of what makes this band perfect
His vocal range is amazing. That's what makes him a good singer
I prefer him over stu. I realize most people feel the opposite but I think this line up here is peak. His vocals aren't as abrasive got me like Stu. His were often a little too up and down for more. I feel like these are more natural and just feel better. Eveyone is different. Both are fantastic but love this dude.
@@chromegnats yeah definitely, he makes a nice contrast with the soft friendly vocals to the fast paced drumming and whatnot
Nah bro i love his voice it's so good
My girlfriend showed me this song during a summer drive and all I see when I hear this is her nodding her head smiling while driving.
So beautiful, dude
@@rainboweyes18 yeah I bet she is
@@fallenarchami5439 err...I was referring to the story, but yeah ; )
@@rainboweyes18 that was the point of the joke
Fuck man, the Collis bros are both SO good at their respective instruments.
TTNG are literally the best band in existence . So much talent it’s just absurd

It's so much fun to sing different harmonies over his vocal lines. That's what makes this one of my favorite songs.
Commenting three years in the future to say the lyrics are even more poignant
Hugh Jackman is a pretty solid drummer.
dr05guitar omg
best comment on this video by far
You should see Tom Hanks drum for Rush.
Those meter changes though!
o h m y g o d can we JUST take a look at the lyrics?
Red wine and tan lines
Colour our differences
You feel less satisfied
The more that you acquire
Black cabs and bar tabs
To help you get away
And you feel quite justified
To feed your magpie's eyes
You'll be happy
When you're willing
To share
Worn holes in old clothes
Wait for the hand-me-downs
Tethered, tangled, and tied;
The suit that fits too tight
Hide behind the bread line
Hunger howls our pockets dry
And it should cripple your pride
To know others won't survive
We'll be happy
When we're willing
To share
Gather the right minds
And slowly through time
All the right minds
Ignoring patience that we lack
Will inform the new minds
And likely inclined all the new minds
Will in turn replace the old
We will change you easily
Great ideals will be replaced
Red wine and tan lines
Colour our differences
Economic divide
This doesn't suit me fine
Amazing musicians, one of few bands who are entirely worthy of their fame. So. Good.
Anet McClintock they deserve more
So much more
The drummer looks like he's really concentrating on getting everything perfect.
dudes a beast
The music industry is like a business. You can't run it on a gamble. You put out shit you get shit
One of the best math rock bands forsure, brings me back to middle school
So nostalgic and classic. A blissful pleasure for the ears and soul.
just noticed some of the composition and meter changes. man i knew this band was awesome, but that was just brilliant in that 7/8 &stuff part.
7/8 --> 3/8 --> 7/8 --> 4/8 --> 7/8 --> 5/8 --> 7/8 --> 6/8 --> repeat
If you're wondering how that one part goes.
happyguyxlii i could count it already, but thanks none the less.
i love how the tambourine switches between the upbeats and the downbeats in that groove
I fucking love that
Bruhh could this band get any better
This makes me feel creative af
Because you ARE
OurNeighborsCat Youre gonna make me blush 😋😋😋
ship
Jk
Really digging this band and 13.0.0.0.0...so good
como puede ser tan maravillosa,
siempre que te recuerdo la escucho
favorite band for sooooo long thanks guys :):):)
Great stuff as always guys!
Everyone gushes over the guitar work but damn that drummer is a god
He's unbelievable
Is Tim using a spider capo?? Or like a third hand kind of capo?? If so that is goddamn amazing I have yet to see a band utilize one, aside from solo acoustic percussion guitarists on like Candyrat and such. Mad respect for these guys, they are amazing, and Henry with that bass too, damn.
+Bryan Yazzie Yep, thats a spider capo :) It kinda stinks though, since now I'll have to learn this song in an even weirder tuning :P (Dont have a spider capo)
+Aneesh Sharma haha I wouldn't recommend tuning in those crazy TTNG tunings while trying to emulate a spider capo sound, if you can't really afford a spider (although its one of the better types to use), one thing I recommend is a Third Hand Capo, I bought one for 14 bucks on amazon years ago and I still use it. I bought it to learn Antoine Dufour's Memories of the Future, it's a really good investment to have that kind of capo in general whenever you wanna get creative with songwriting and playing.
***** Its basically a capo which can bar specific strings, rather than barring all strings.
The time signatures in this song are unbelievable
Me encanta esta canción! Saludos desde Cd. De México!
This is amazing
Amazing musicians:)
i'm a simple person. if i see TTNG video i click the like button
This is fantastic!
"cat" fantastic
is this how berklee musicians sound like? So damn good
That guitar bass is tripping me out lol
slarbiter He probably just has an octave jump pedal on a 6 string bass with PJ pickups on a jaguar body and neck.
+Christopher Thomas nop. it's a Squier VI.
EduardoPavezGoye
I looked into it more he's playing a squire 4 string jaguar that he added two extra strings to. It also does have PJ pick-ups.
+Christopher Thomas How does one add two extra strings to a neck that's only made to fit 4 strings?
He drilled holes and put in 2 pegs smart ass. He said it in an interview.
Holy shit i love
This song haunts me
His voice kinda reminds me of the vocalist in the Japanese band asian kung fu generation.
WOW
YOU UPLOADED TTNG FUCK YES THANK YOU I WAS RIGHT FOR SUBSCRIBING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sound like two door cinema club a little (the studio version mostly)
anyone know if henry's playing the bass in standard or a different tuning? i'm trying to tab the new bass/guitar hybrid parts out
It's an E octave below a standard guitar, so yes : )
สุดยอดครับผม
A única coisa que meu ex me mostrou foi essa música:)
Valeu Chriszofi 🌼
Stay away from me. You guys are sick
3:13
Best part imo
Fucking sick
+Neil Mclaughlin I just went to see them live last night, and I can agree that they are indeed f*ing Sick
+Exourion • You're sooo lucky. I would have to travel miles to see them live :(
Um...is Henry using a guitar with the top strings being bass and the bottom strings being guitar? Because I notice his 2nd guitar part after the chorus and he's playing down there! WTF wow! that's customization
The instrument he's using is a Schecter Hellcat and it's a 6 string bass that kind of occupies a weird space between guitar and bass, it's tuned a whole octave lower than a guitar. :)
It's not a Schecter hellcat. It's a customised Squire Jaguar bass with two extra strings to replicate a Fender Bass VI style guitar (which is pretty much what the hellcat does, but it's a completely different guitar). Although you are right about what it does and its octave :)
Ah, the only guitar like that I've seen is the Hellraiser. thanks for clearing that up for me! :]
oh it's actually thin bass strings with pick up changes to switch between deep enough for bass and trebly enough to do melodies
ShadowCrowX Its a Fender Bass VI, it registers between bass and guitar and when switched into the bridge position is pure bass.
Dat bass VI T.T
where they come from ?
Oxford, U.K.
tnks i am from mexico X3
wut
10 bars of 4 and one of 5?
Is the drummer using two snare drums?
His whole set is just different snares
@@caseypnw I see!!
@@caseypnw oh shit really?
His bass looks so weird, what strings are those? It just looks like a regular guitar
It's a custom guitar/bass
It's a five string bass.
It's not a five string bass. It's custom made, seems like it's very similar to a fender bass VI but short scale.
vimeo.com/108249840 second half of the video
Dayanz maybe a baritone guitar with some big ass strings?
It's a Squier VM Jaguar bass. A standard short scale bass, which he's modified by banging a 6 string bridge on, filling in the headstock and putting 6 machine heads on. Pretty clever!
still trying to figure out how to headbang to this in 2020
Same!
lol
you just need to commit to dancing like a robot
Whats the time signature I don't get it it sounds like 9/8 it some places then it doesn't WTFFFFF
Sometimes theres multiple time signatures.
I counted like... 45/16
But the weird stuff goes between 45 and 1
ok everyone's talking about these kick-ass time signatures but can we acknowledge how frickin communist these lyrics are? heck yeah, my comradar is going off
I wouldn't call them communist.
@@BigEvan96 Socialist I would say for sure. They have a song called "In Praise of Idleness" which is a reference to an essay of the same name by Bertrand Russell, and the essay strongly criticizes capitalism, and promotes anti capitalism/libertarian socialism. iirc at the very least I've seen that Hank supported Corbyn too though Corbyn could be considered more of a midpoint between social democracy and full on socialism he was about as left as you could get while still being a candidate that could achieve electoral victory in the UK
What the fuck does this statement even mean?
it is catchy as FUCK DAYM
i had no idea they used a bass 6 :o
To make up for Hank who doesn't tour around with them anymore
only live. The 13.0.0.0.0 album was recorded with Jamie when they were 4 still. Hank plays the 6 string after he left to play Jamie's basslines and his guitar lines at the same time (like in this song!)
Marcus Gooda
Oh I thought Hank was always win TTNG! That and I thought they became a Three man shortly after Animal was released, a year before 13.0.0.0 was released (Back when Toe played in London) they were a three man back then so I thought Jamie left after Animal and hank covered in for the 13.0.0.0 album (because he's the credited member in the Tab book)
Im pretty sure that's a baritone guitat
nope the model of the guitar he's playing is called the Fender Bass VI. its a 6 string bass that is the same scale as a guitar. the cure used those as well.
sounds like eggstone a bit
If I have to watch a stupid FUKKIN VNYL promo again, I'm done with youtube. VNYL, you're ruining a nice media format.....
If he was a better singer they'd literally be perfect.
Andreas Schiefelbein un chileno jajajaja
So, their first album Animals?
on je dobar i vako
Could not disagree with you more. Love his voice.
You don't listen to Math Rock for good singers. I love his voice, he doesn't have a "top 40" voice, but those become annoying after awhile anyways. The technicality of the music should be all the matters ^-^
start the song before the video nice! man audiotree sucks so hard...
