Thomas Lang - Stock

[SirGameChanger]

The musicality of the cymbals....wow

[JackMehoff845]

So damn soothing

[MrBradLuganos]

thomas ist grandios

[zzfunk13]

the man has sooo much control and his dynamics are amazing... his drumset is setup so well to get around so smooth and easily... his fills and beats are so crisp and clean... damn I'm so jealous of this guy

[jks2389]

I don't know why people always say Thomas is a cyborg without emotion when he plays. This has some serious groove to it.

[drumgroovy]

So ironic to see an Austrian not using the German grip.

[DrummerRF]

Never liked those Meinl cymbals

[JORDANSAGESVLOG]

Tight.

[Papahkk1]

Hey is awsome

[RafielShadox]

ok, i wish i had this guys drum set!

[taypain]

just respect then go...

[mollet09]

someone can tell me what king of genre of music is this??

[Cobrakai77]

man those cymbals n drums sound so crisp, incredible drummer!

[DrummingDemon94]

frickin baby making music

[Hitmanfan91]

The only drummer who uses double pedal as much as a metal drummer OUTSIDE of metal....and makes it sound musical! His bass drum work is so musical, and tasteful. Would anyone else expect double pedal to sound so good with a backing track like this.

This is Thomas Lang stuff people need to hear more of, he's not just all generic chops...

[HASF7]

para mi el mejor del Mundo!! saludos desde Guatemala!!!

[amusingisthedawn]

that hi-hat that sounds like a tambourine is soooooo nice

[Eddie147741]

he needs more pedals!

[tamakit123]

wow i love that I'm  branching out from metal! this is so cool I've been missing out on a lot!

[lukinhasgms]

genial grande técnica com a pegada clássica

[000MaidenManiac000]

between 1:37 and 2:35 you can hear an added extra hi hat... also between 3:33 till the end... and btw 6:37 is missing xD but who cares... hes awesome anyway....

[zubiac]

@000MaidenManiac000

an added hihat? he plays it with his foot. there's nothing added

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@zubiac We already had this discussion and yes it's a added Hi hat

[000MaidenManiac000]

@zubiac ohh i didnt know... but yes... listen clousely... and i love metal... good 4 me... o.O jaja

[Rennydrums]

i want that fuckin drum set

[FSVschroeck]

THIS DRUMSOUND IS SO F**KING AWSOME!!!!!

[dandreamdrums]

2 persons like Justin Bieber!!!

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@dandreamdrums Gtfo we don't care about Justin Bieber

[KotowTV]

@TheJochemvanberkel You buy all his pop records ^_^

[ZanderPodraza]

@dandreamdrums see, you have no thumbs up. that's because that stream of jokes isn't funny anymore.

[dandreamdrums]

@ZanderPodraza this is a Joke for musicians!!! no for normal people!!!! isnt funny for people like you!!!

[ZanderPodraza]

@dandreamdrums yeah ok mate. not like i'm studying jazz at music college or anything... it's just a joke created by a spastic with limited sense of humour.

[dandreamdrums]

@ZanderPodraza ok men!! no problem!!!! :)

[silverbackjack77]

@dandreamdrums Justin Bieber can play drums about as good as I can fuck a midget on a unicycle while reciting the scottish national anthem at the same time as baking a pie full of mollusks and eating 1300212 cans of cat food.

Terribly, in case it wasn't clear enough.

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@silverbackjack77 Thanks Sir, indeed!

[MrColaid]

i'm going to delete my comment about the backing track cause people keep responding to it without reading the many reposes previously posted

[Shane7952]

Type in this on youtube, "Buddy Rich shows off his speed and accuracy with another drum solo." you can't seriously tell me Thomas Lang is better than this....

[FebrezedSniper]

@Shane7952 Im sorry dude, buddy rich doesnt impress me. hes fast, ill give him that. could i do it? no. but he doesnt show any originality at all. its a snare roll w/ a few tom hits every once ina while. Its just not impressive to me. His drum solos never keep my attention. And of course Lang is gonna say hes not as good as others. Hes humble as shit. And also, not to take a shot at you, but you could not do this. Granted, ,this video doesnt show anything mind-blowing, but his style is unique

[20SecondDrums]

Thomas Lang is so cool he wears two watches.

[axedstoninst]

@20SecondDrums Because thomas lang doesn't count time... time counts thomas lang,

[antonolssonlol]

@20SecondDrums

That's how he's always on time....

See what I did there? ;) x)

[Clancedrums]

@antonolssonlol yes, i see it ROFL

[xDrummingPiex]

@20SecondDrums Thats how he can keep such good "time." I love drum puns

[ndzapruder]

@20SecondDrums Better for.../keeping time/. aahhaah

[freakyseppl]

sounds like porn music :D

[BOOLsheet]

he doesnt have enough pedals.

[PunkInDrublik86]

less traditional grip

[raiotinfamigold]

i hate traditional position!

[Shane7952]

@raiotinfamigold I use both :P

[MrHOTSAUCE94]

good thing he doesn't do drum covers otherwise all of us wud b f**ked

[eonix99]

THE BEST

[TheREVOLUTIONARYDRUM]

MR LANG really is the greatest most dynamic drummer in the world. he plays wide open yet locked down... w the groove

[conkareno]

wonder what hes done with that kit now

[theexadorrules]

Thomas Lang is just great.

His duo's with Thomas Pridgen are insane.

Are whatever you wanna call them.

Best to Thomas's in the world

Greatest drummer.

Sick ass kit yo

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@MrColaid I think so.. I watched that part many times and he doesn't play that hi-hat.

[bubbasock]

@MrColaid He does it with his foot. It happens earlier in the video too

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@bubbasock No he doesn't, with his right foot he plays bd en with his left foot he does another hi-hat

[bubbasock]

@TheJochemvanberkel He clearly does the choke with his left foot...

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@bubbasock No, look at 3:54, you can see that he plays a hi-hat but it's from the sound you here..

[bubbasock]

@TheJochemvanberkel I hope you know that it's possible to play a hi hat with just your foot

[bubbasock]

@bubbasock nevermind. the hi hat sound is in the track.

[andywhishus]

@bubbasock yeah i think so

[MrColaid]

@bubbasock No his left foot is just doing quarter note clicks on the other hi-hat and his right is on the bass. It's just an added in effect throughout the main groove of the song

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@MrColaid Yes, we already said that ; )

[bubbasock]

@MrColaid yeah, I thought he was doing heel splashes. I was wrong lol

[SERCHSOS3722]

@MrColaid OMG!! IT HAS PLAYBACK!!! hahaha no, he's an excellent drummer, maybe the best! :D

[dimetilldeath]

@MrColaid Yes it is still 4/4 though.Makes no difference ..just a open hihat on the 4+ (last note of the bar)

[ZakaElab]

@MrColaid It seems to be prerecorded, right?

[darksymphonybass]

@MrColaid i just played that section about 20 times and i cant find it x.x im sure its probably just in the jam itself. but its still impressive as ever.

[MrColaid]

@darksymphonybass Yea just part of the backing track. We've already beat this issue to death, and I'm not saying this in direct response to you darksymphonybass, but I see on this first page of comments, that 3 comments are responses to mine, so I say guys, please read the comments before you post one, cause we've prolly already addressed it.

[darksymphonybass]

@MrColaid Im sorry man. It was pretty recent to me so i didnt think it was covered. 

[nilesdrums]

@MrColaid It must be part of the backing track because he doesn't play it.

[logansdrums]

his drums are sooooo beautiful!!!

[MrKoukys]

what crash is on his left arm (16")? awesome sound..

[TheBestOfTimes88]

heath ledger?

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@TheBestOfTimes88 Hmm, not really

[TheBestOfTimes88]

@TheJochemvanberkel :p

[DieMrsColumbo]

the song is by alex slavik - thomas stole it and just programmed some loop around it. check out alslavik.com if you don't believe it. at least lang should have given some kudos :(

[pako18drum]

Soemone knows if in any CD Thomas has recorded, this song appears?

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@pako18drum Thomas Lang Creative coordination & advanced foot technique But it's a DVD

[pako18drum]

@TheJochemvanberkel yeah, I know man, I have that awesome DVD, thanks though, but I'm interested in knowing if in any album appears this song. :)

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@pako18drum No there is no cd with this song.

[pako18drum]

@TheJochemvanberkel tanks man :)

[rifft1337]

@pako18drum If you are interested in instrumental rock music, Thomas Lang does have a CD that he recorded with the band StOrk

[remcoosmitss]

pffff kan ik ook =)

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@remcoosmitss Ja, snap ik

[NeoRockerDizzy]

"The best drummer on world!", the words of FALCO. And they are true.

[TheJochemvanberkel]

@NeoRockerDizzy 100% True!

[Shane7952]

@NeoRockerDizzy Best drummer? lol he's good but i could name 100 who are better :P

[NeoRockerDizzy]

@Shane7952 tell me one.

[Shane7952]

@NeoRockerDizzy I'll tell you a few ... Virgil Donati, steve gadd, Dave Weckl, steve smith,Max Roach, Elvin Jones, Neil Peart, David Garibaldi, Gene Krupa, buddy rich, Papa Jo Jones, Louis Bellson etc....

[NeoRockerDizzy]

@Shane7952 thomas lang is still the best to me. basta.

[Shane7952]

@NeoRockerDizzy :)

[FebrezedSniper]

@Shane7952 Im sorry but they arent better than thomas Lang, man. At all. This guy does more impressive shit than anyone ive ever seen. He does stuff that looks easy but is just plain complicated. and hes amazing at every genre and well-rounded. This video doesnt even come close to showing his potential

[MyTimco]

Zo goed ben jij volgens mij niet. xD
