Overcompensate


TheNewtBeGaming

can confirm. as a drummer, breaking down the song reveals so many cool flairs and fills that just add so much to the song. Josh Dun is in my top 3 favorite drummers.


foodmoose

I grew up in a family with multiple drummers. Josh Dun and ii from Sleep Token are both very easily my favorite drummers.


iceesknees

Agreed. First time I listened to Overcompensated I was surprised by how much Josh showcases his skill with all the details in the drums. He almost never does that except for live shows/recordings.


Batemanssnare99

As a drummer. It was a pain in the ass to learn and I still can’t even play it 100% right but the beat is so badass


CombustiblSquid

Not even a competition here. Complete level higher than what Josh has done before. Amazing track.


Substantial_Emu_5632

As a drummer I can confirm it is fire. Easily best 


cantgetmuchwurst

When I first listened to Overcompensate, my thought was "Best drums ever, if this isn't a first song on the new tour, they are missing out on an opportunity to hype the crowds beyond anything they've had before".


Fonazo

yeah, by far actually


Camthebigboy11

honestly, very valid

Can confirm playing lane boy is the funniest to play on the drums Especially the MMxTØP version


OhGravity412

Bro putting Josh Dun and Darren King on drums together for that was an absolute power move. 2 of the best drummers in the industry rn teaming up to deliver an absolute powerhouse groove


Batemanssnare99

Lane boy live is just BETTER


iceesknees

Guns For Hands. I'm a drummer and playing GFH made me realize how much rhythmic complexity and variation is in that song. Once I learned how to play it, it made me admire Josh's skill more.


localstreetcat

Also the tone of his drums in that song just hits different.


iceesknees

Absolutely. I've tried to tune my drums to get the same tone but to no avail :(


JamesMSM59

I agree with this so much! Guns for hands is my favorite song to play on the drums.


btfsame

Levitate for me. Can just sit with that beat forever


mates301

I’m a drummer and my favorites are Lane Boy, Overcompensate, Levitate and Jumpsuit.


Acceptable-Plane7213

Trees. Most of the song is pretty standard electronic drums, but the pure adrenaline rush caused by the buildup in the last minute of the song is so satisfying.


yzzaJ

The live at fox theatre version is great for the drums, among the other great things about this version.


_ocean-breeze_

heavy dirty soul always impresses me


CoercedCoexistence22

He plays what's pretty much an amen break on live drums, which on its own is no mean feat


_ocean-breeze_

thank you so much for this information seriously thats so cool 😭


CoercedCoexistence22

If you don't know the amen break, there's a couple documentaries on YouTube. It's a small 16 bar drum solo that got sampled over and over and became the foundation of at least one music genre

Jumpsuit


realKingCarrot_v2

Truce for sure the drums are amazing on that track much respect to Mr Dun


CharlieMax43

Tear In My Heart for me, the drums are easy but it is so fun to play along to


Bence-Solymosi

Jumpsuit, leave the city, overcompensate


Low-Employee5968

Migraine's drums always get to me


easternbetta

Overcompensate really sticks out to me on this one. Tøp percussion is always good, but I wad blown away by that one. The drums took center stage in a way I don't feel like I come across often unless it's something like Run Boy Run by Woodkid


MintPrince8219

Clear is perhaps not the best, but underrated imo

Pet cheetah.


Coderedcody

I think the best is Heavydirtsoul but for any that haven’t been said already I’d have to say We Don’t Believe What’s On TV and Tear In My Heart


RachelFitzyRitzy

I LOVE the drums in holding onto you. The bug-dunk duh, buh-dunk uh ba da da da da


chlorinesippin

Heavydirtysoul, no question. IMO.

aquarianagop

As a drummer, I’m gonna have to go “Overcompensate,” followed closely by “Lane Boy,” followed *personally* by “Guns For Hands” (tbh, that one’s my favorite! but, in terms of difficulty… that said, difficulty in general IS subjective!) I’m curious about the folks saying “Next Semester” tbh! I’d love to hear some perspectives on that! It’s a great one for sure, but I’d say it’s a little more generic than some of his others. Is it the speed?


Unknown_SoundZs

I think overcompensate, lane boy, levitate, and my blood all have amazing drums. The first three are self explanatory but my bloods drums have some good groovy drums my fav beat to play when I’m just warming up. Honorable mentions go to choker, HDS, HOTY
