so Tigran Hamasyan is a brilliant jazz pianist that I played a lot with when he was in NY a couple of years ago.. one of the most unbelievable genius musicians I've ever encountered.

i came across this video of this Berklee dude drummer covering some Tigran in a slightly more 'metal' setting, and the result of some of the filthiest riffage i've ever heard.

Wow that's pretty cool!

[BanksD]

holy shit that was amazing

[Adami]

All I heard was guitar and cymbals with a little snare. I'd really like to hear the rest of the drums.

[XianL]

Very cool, love it.

Holy jeez. Went and found the original piece of the first they played - "Red Hail". I don't listen a lot of jazz, but it definitely doesn't fit my preconception. This cover was meant to be, because I think this tune makes way better metal than it does jazz...

Wasn't especially intrigued by the first half of the video, but the second half was kickass.
