Default How the hell do i learn this song?

Hey everyone
ok so i recently started listening to this band (TesseracT) and i guess i am in love with their songs and i also recommend that you guys give it a listen :)
well now i am trying learn some of their songs.They play very complex odd music and well i dont want to boast but i am quite fast at memorizing such odd patterns.But here is the problem, i have been working on this specific part in this song but still cant get it.No matter how hard i try i just dont get it .So any tips how i can learn this part??

From 1:26 to 1:40

I cant actually listen to the song since I am at work and no speakers on this computer, but this is usually how I handle parts that elude me. In order to learn really fast or really complex parts you need to slow them down in your mind. Sometimes that is even extremely difficult so when this happens, I drop the song into my recording software and slow it down manually. That way I can pick out every single detail and nail it perfectly. Try that.

Pity you dont have it on a 45. then you could play it @ 33 and learn it at that speed and then go back to tempo.

1) find the time signature
2) pick a subdivision ...in this case 16th notes....find where the notes drop within the subdivision.
3) write it out and learn it

check out here how Joe goes about breaking this down....great vid

Try Dan Brigstock, he will make a drum chart of the entire song, for a very low fee:
