I'm a music major going in to my second year of theory so I'm starting to understand a lot of the shit they're doing now rather than just attempting to copy it lol Most definitely…I just love crazy time signature changes and complex patterns.

Fucking kick-ass. That's all I have to say. I honestly had never heard of these guys before they opened for All Shall Perish and Born Of Osiris. Anyway, they were fucking awesome! I'm a huge Meshuggah fan and these guys take the Meshuggah formula to a new level! Kick-ass polyrhythmic shit. Period. just got back from their show in Denver, CO. Fucking kick-ass.

I had Rareform first, and I just got their older album with this song on it. I have to say, these guys are fucking geniuses. I love the heavy (8 String) guitar riffs and the drums...basically the whole band. I don't think they used a drum machine, they are way to good to use that kind of stuff. Have you ever seen them in live btw? They know exactly what to play, they know their shit. The guitar players play so well live it's just amazing. (Although, I have to say that Mesuggah is still #1 in "weird" music like this) Ps.: If there are any other bands like these guys, please hit me up! Thanks! :D I have been a huge fan of these guys.

Why not use a drum machine? it would be more reliable live and sound the exact same on a cd. Actually, they probably did use a drum machine on the cd. None of you will ever hear this song live because the band cannot remember how to play it. any bored doom-head with Garage Band on their laptop has already written this breakdown then deleted it because they thought it sucked.

The new album took me a few listens to get used to but after that I realized it's got a lot more to it than their first album. And I can't follow that pattern no matter how hard I try.

Does this statement mean that you move the point 71 times? Or does it mean that you reach the 71st number in the sequence? If neither of those, then what does it mean? "There is no kick drum beats where there are snare drums." More questions. Does the kick drum pattern start on "one"? If so, do you replace where the kick drum should be on "three" with the snare instead, or is the pattern adjusted to make sure that never happens? If starts on one, and you didn't replace the kick drum with the snare, then you would have that problem on the first measure; however, it sounds like you are using that replacement. I love you guys' idea for this; I'm considering buying the album now. “The formula extends out to 71 decimal points.”
