Verse time for B&C
In Broke and Crossed the verses aren't in standard time, my best guess would be 5/4 but I'm not totally sure. Does anyone know what the
actual time signature is?

I'm counting them in alternating 5/8 3/8 Rob. You fucking dumbass, you should be able to figure that out!

boyz and girls...
i am the drummer that played on all the old livid stuff and i can tell you that the song (even the verse) is in 4/4 timing... don't look for the
snare hit to give it away... count the high hat and you will soon see the truth... it was just a way to change things up... too much 4/4 is boring...
so i decided to keep the drums in 4/4 timing but put the snare hits in between the beat... they are all on half beats.....
and now you know... and now you can talk about how creative and wonderful i am..... or not... Adam kicks ass... including mine... so go livid.
go....

4/4
Wow, that Chris is so creative and wonderful, and so is Adam... although less with the creative and more with the wonderful since he didn't
actually make it up... oh well, you know what I mean.
Jeff is sort of right though, there are 8 eigth notes, which seem to be broken up into a 3-5 pattern.

4/4
I listened to it again, and that snare between the 8th notes thing is quite brilliant... I don't think I have ever heard such a thing before.

yeah i am not saying that the 5-8 thing is wrong but just that there is actually no change in the count.... just count it 1 and 2 and ..... etc...
like an 8th not in a bar with 4 mesures....
ps.. adam is wonderful... he is a much more solid drummer than i will ever be....

No, I counted it the 5/8 thing I suggested is technically wrong considering the note values that chris is playing.
In conclusion I'm gay and got owned by my own big mouth.
