First
Dope as fuck to see you watching these!!!
Fuck yea, buddy.
Holy shit, is Blake
Sup, stream daddy, nice work on your charity streams
Oh shit Blakey! Wassup man?
Tesseract is a really underrated band, One, Altered state, Polaris, actually every single song of every single album is a truly unique and beautiful ear candy for Prog and complex music lovers.
Tesseract is definitely my favorite Progressive group. I can listen to Dan or Ash until I die. LOL
Yep and yep
Not to mention they’re all very talented and one of the few bands that pull off not only timing but the execution of vocals live are comparable to the album. Normally live there’s obviously different circumstances regarding performance but they’ve never disappointed. Incredibly talented.
Every song is excellence with Tesseract!
I think Good Tiger are underrated too - i know at least one member is from tesseract
Tesseract are kings of restraint. They could go nuts like Meshuggah, but prefer to excel at atmosphere. I reccommend Deception and Juno.
Anthony Kerr Absolutely nailed it. They make extremely complex music, while keeping it musical and groovy. They could go on and jerk off with a barrage of notes and fills and crazy time signature changes, but they don't. They actually aim to make good music.
iau they do indeed very crazy time changes but it’s embedded in good songwriting and is very listenable by the average person
Great description! The first time I listened to them I kept waiting for the crunching and it never happened - but I was banging my head the whole time. LOLOLOL I immediately listened several more times trying to figure out the time signatures - nope, Postones wins, I lose. hehehe
Yea but Meshuggah is definitely the wrong example. Meshuggah uses incredible restraint as well. They're probably the most disciplined and refined extreme metal band of all time as a matter of fact. A much better counter-example would have been Dillinger Escape Plan, Oceans ate Alaska etc. if you were looking for chaotic, or "nuts".
@La Nausée agreed. I hate to sound like an elitist, but if someone thinks meshuggah is nuts or unrestrained, they probably just don't get them.
Tesseract’s Altered States album is an absolute masterpiece. I can listen to it on repeat for days. If you liked the second song you listened to, you’ll like the album.
Same. One of those albums I can listen to any time, any day, any mood. There are maybe four or five other albums I can say the same thing about.
It really is quite remarkable in that it is incredibly listenable but at the same time sports a constant intensity.
thanks dude
*state
agreed. Can never get sick of it. Esp the sax solo *splooge*
"I'll see you guys on Spotify" ah yes he will be part of the tesseract family 🙏
He did what we all did the first time we heard TesseracT haha, you can’t help but immediately go find more of it!
@@nobodyknowsrhys ikr
"Cube within a cube that is skewed" is a hella poetic way of getting around calling it a tesseract :D
Oh yeah Tesseract are one of those quintessential Djent/Modern Prog bands from the past few years. Very nice music you should check their music out in your own time!
Did you not see the end lol.. he finished the video by just saying "see you on spotify"
Jay and those ghost notes. That snare is HAUNTED!
I’m glad you got round to doing this vid, Jay is my all time favourite drummer. He streams regularly on twitch so you can go and ask him questions about his playing or ask for song requests and he just learns them by ear on the spot it’s wild. Nicest guy you could imagine as well
Here's the twitch link for those who want more. He does song requests and jams out with the chat like a madman. www.twitch.tv/jaypostones/
He really is an incredibly nice guy. I love his drumming and ideas too
Tesseract is purely amazing they do not underwhelm at a live show either so good, so complex, so many feels!
Best sounding live band I’ve ever witnessed. Not the wildest physical performance, but you can hear every ghost note during a live show which is just mad impressive.
fyi- the 2nd song was "Nocturne"
this is not intended to be dickish.
One of my favorite Tesseract songs. That intro is nasty.
I've never clicked so fast. The best djent band to come out of the UK yet. Saw them in Johannesburg 2 years ago. Great guys.
Saw them live front row next to stage years ago in Boston and they immediately became my favorite band and still are today. I went to the show for animals as leaders, but left in shock of Tess.
Yes! TesseracT is one of my favourite all-time bands. I can listen to One and Altered State end-to-end any time.
Jay is an under rated drummer for sure man. The grooves of tesseract always blow me away
Bro....so glad u finally did tesseract!
I have loved that band for years bc it is EVERYTHING a drummer wants to hear while still being able to disappear in to vocals and song.
He kinda reminds me of Simon Phillips, in the sense that he's so smooth, totally in control, never fighting the kit.
Progbloke 66 You should check out his live-streams. He looks like he’s just chillin.
@@ckokomo808 I'll definitely do that. Thanks.
I have worked with Jay and you'll find he is usually playing in more than one time signature at the same time
My favorite drummer being checked out by my favorite jazz drummer reactor, there might be a heaven
That right there: 4:43 that's what we call TesseracT face.
Are these grooves even legal???
Props to the 2 guys in the audience actually managing to bang in time
Crowd following is so difficult in prog gigs, there's the AALs video from brutal assault where javier guides the crowd how to clap to time in that weird part in cafo
they're probably drummers
They should really save that for when they're at home.
Altered State is an enduring masterpiece ... it is a mind trip from beginning to end
FINALLY! Been waiting for a Jay reaction. He's the man.
Finally! You should do more videos on Jay. He really deserves it! Great video!
i was lucky enough to see this dude AND Blake Richardson in one evening! twas EPIC!
i was glad to see you enjoy these guys so much lo
TesseracT is one of my favorites! Jay streams a bunch on Twitch (mostly drums, does some game stuff) if you want to see more of him. Polaris is my favorite album, Cages and Dystopia being my favorites off of that, but One is a fantastic album as well.
What's really nice about seeing you react to them is that I understand that they are "fucking time up", but knowing when they do it in these reactions and seeing you react the same way to the music at the same parts just validates all the time I spent listening to them. Thanks!
post the sweatpant rant
I don't need sleep I need answers
I came here for Tesseract, but I don't care anymore. I need to know about the sweatpants
It is really nice to see one of my favorite bands in your channel! WOW.
I really enjoy your videos! Thanks for sharing. Great idea reviewing two songs. I agree, the first one ended with me wanting more!
“See you on Spotify “ 😆 hell yea!
Seriously one of the most mesmerizing drummers I've ever seen.
It makes me so happy that you enjoyed it so much. Tesseract is incredible live
"I just like like it, his style is fucking great" - well said man
Jay is such an amazing drummer. My mind was blown when I saw them live. So precise and groovy.
Altered State (instrumental version) is honestly one of my favorite albums. The thing is a masterpiece.
I love seeing you react to these bands that I've listened to for years, and always known they were doing some weird shit with time but not having a clue what, to then watch a much more experienced and competent drummer have the same reaction is very reassuring
Ive always said tesseract are the perfect example of complex simplicity. You always feel that groove but you can peal back rhythms and layers constantly. Love your channel duder 🤘
yessss!! been waiting for this since i found you channel!
I would really recommend "Exile", that epic long song just mind blows me every time
Take a look at rick beato's last vid about karnivool...it's about a 27/4 groove^^
Seeing you make all the same faces we did when we first listened to Tesseract is great! Glad you finally got around to checking out Jay and enjoyed Tesseract
So glad you enjoyed these guys, man! Absolutely incredible band. Excited to hear what you think from your Spotify listens! Altered State is a masterpiece of an album.
You can never go wrong with Jay Postones!
Awsome! Thank you for the video
Probably my favorite band and favorite drummer
Very cool stuff.. definitely be diggin in more with this band fo sho
Love that you reacted to this stuff! I’ve got a Tesseract tattoo, these guys are the real deal
I love to see you loving TesseracT as much as I do. I don’t think I’ve watched one of your reaction vids where you were even this close to excited about a band you were watching. They’re that good live too, so go see ‘em.
He looks so relaxed! Love it!
listen to their album "One" I'd describe it as Djent with nu-metal and tool influences. The first lyrics to "Concealing Fate Part IV - Perfection" are like a lost, early Mudvayne record.
Really? That sounds interesting as fuck. I saw them years ago at a festival but never really checked their music despite having a good time watching them.
The Concealing Fate EP in particular is an all time favourite for sure
DONT YOU DARE COMPARE THEM WITH NU METAL OR MUDVAYNE
@@zero_zero107 Mudvayne was incredible for a while. Put aside your distaste for nu-metal and give a good listen to what they were doing. WAY ahead of their peers.
thaaaaaank you! i, like others, asked you to check him out months ago. there's something so smooth about jay's play, and he's a super nice dude too. all of their work is great, but Altered State really is a masterpiece. please do more.
Yeah!! Spotify up Concealing Fate from their first album.... It's magical!! And there's a video of them doing it all love in the studio... Very impressive!
There we go!!! Thanks, Garrett!
As I’ve expected. Lmao. A Jay Postones after Joey Baca.
The power prog duo
Dude yeesss haha
Wait hes reviewed Baca too??? Ok I gotta check that out
Definitely you should
Tesseract is one of my favorite bands. Glad you liked it :)
I think you would dig Vola and their drummer Adam Janzi, he has a really interesting approach to groove like Postones!
Vola is super underrated. Really groovy but secretly complex music!
Definitely! Seen them 5 times and they just get better!
@@AidanMmusic96 seen them once with Monuments and they were amazing! Super humble and polite guys as well!
Hell yeah!
seen them open for dream theater, mind was blown. Tessaract rule man!
It's nearly 4am, I've been writing assignments all evening, I was about to go to bed... But then this popped up in my notifications 😍
"I don't know where to clap 🤯" laughed my ass off with that one bud lmaooo
More of JAY!!! Amazing drummer!!!
He’s amazing along with the band one of my favorites
thanks for this!! ♥ I suggested this many times lml
I literally searched for you doing Tesseract 2 days ago! Finally!
I’m so glad you listened to nocturne as well (the second song) it’s such an amazing work and I love Jays “loose” flowing cymbal work, the way he splashes in accents and all the little chime and splash cymbals he sneaks in are awesome
Jay Postones is a SUPER solid drummer, my top 5 in the prog rock genre
One of my favourite drummers. His handling of polyrythms is insane
Love Tesseract..Great in concert.
"I'm just liking it" that's exactly how I feel for your channel dude. Keep it going.
Finally! One of favorite drummer ever!
always nice to see a new Tesseract fan!
It would be awesome if you could find a drum cam of Andrew from The Ghost Inside.
He had his right leg (his dominant leg) amputated mid thigh after the tour bus the band was in got in a head on collision with a semi truck. Every member of the band experienced life altering injuries.
They just started to released new music and he uses a funky contraption that his dad made to rock the kit again.
he does live youtube playthroughs and answers questions on his youtube page all the time. hes amazing
For some reason I' m really happy that you liked Tesseract !
Enjoy one of the best modern drummers today
So glad you decided to do Tesseract. They are a fantastic band that does lovely music! Also great to see you get kinda lost in it just because you like it :D
Jay is one of my faves! You should check out some of his streams. Sits in sweats at home and makes all other drummers look silly. Trully awesome.
Daily fix. I dig your videos dude. Keep them coming.
I got a water mug just like yours. Bought it in Kentucky and it says "moonshine" on it. Also, it wasn't filled with water.
I love Tesseract by the way. So much talent in that band.
TesseracT is just an absolutely well rounded fantastic group of musicians so very good! U need to see them live for sure then your mind will truly be blown lol
I was waiting for this! 🙃
Fantastic band and drummer. 👌🏻
The second one is older. You can tell by him having hair in the second :D
Also: Good closing statement!
1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2, 1-2-3 | 1-2-3, 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3, 1-2-3. Awesome displacement -in the chorus- throughout. So fuckin' catchy.
I like when real musician, recognize the quality of Tesseract musicians. New prog still alive.
Was literally just about to suggest this guy, then see this. good on ya m8
Jay is the smoothest and crispiest around.
Ah! Dude, I'm so glad you finally got around to checking his playing -- but not only that, the band TesseracT! And I'm super glad you want to go check their music out, because they are absolutely incredible musicians all around, and incredible songwriters. They are definitely their own thing in that space. Their whole discography is pretty awesome. 'Altered States' from 2013 was an incredible record that that they did with singer Ashe O’Hara (classically trained -- fucking angelic voice) if you want to hear TesseracT screamless heh. But I love all of their stuff. The singer Dan has some incredible solo music as well!
Incredibly underrated band. If you ever get a chance to see them live, DO IT. It's incredible. They always sound a notch up!
TesseracT goose bumps every listen, guaranteed
I went to a festival in Paris, end of 2014. It was called "Damage Festival" with the sickest line-up one could wish for this genre of music, and they were playing that night. I didn't know Tesseract very well before, but man, they gave me the biggest slap in the face I ever had during a live show, and that's telling something !
I definitely want more Jay
Ha! That was my first thought as well "I'll see you on Spotify" Wow!
Yes finally reacting to Jay!!
I love the fact You realized the guy was killing it on the drums so You didnt analize much but just enjoyed the performance, that's the step print of a humble musician 🤘🏾 love your videos, upload one where You actually try yo play what you just reacted to! That'd be cool!
“It feels like 2/4....I don’t know where to clap”. This was beautiful.
The G-Man goes double down ... Sweet ! Good to see you just digging it. Stay safe and in sweats
Lol about the people who put a little piece of paper under their tongue.. this was dope!
so smooth...
My fav band.
