XeviFoo 2008, #1 - LIKE SUICIDE (SOUNDGARDEN)

[TofuRealName]

First of all, let me say that I'm not a drummer. However, this is probably my favorite Soundgarden song, and you've captured the very reason why. Matt Cameron is a phenominal drummer, and you've excelled in showing what that awesome track took to create.

I don't always add videos to my favorites... but this one is getting added.

[OneOfThe3Muskateers]

I swear it you look like Dave Grohl!

[destructo56]

You sir, are the man! Thank you for posing these videos. You have great skills, and your camera angle is very helpful for learning. Rock on!

[JavierJulianAyarzaCa]

great job!

[SOUNDGARDENERR]

That was awesome man!!! Now I want you to sing that shit!!!

[JustSomeGuy741]

Charlie Sheen has killed himself but the press won't release that information

[theoriginalMaxman2]

@JustSomeGuy741 fuck you ignorant bastard (and charlie sheen hater) he appeared on live television yesterday!

[FenderGrungeMusician]

God it sounds exactly like Matt's Drum set. That's the I need to buy the one drum set from Superunknown. What kind is it cause I really need it man. Matt's Drum set he used for that album is my favorite. Whats the name and the snare and cymbals and everything. Please get back to me man.

[Hedged001]

Awesome!!

[twintriode]

Nice job. I really love the drums in this song so I was glad to see that you did it and didn't suck at it. This song is a great one for Matt because it just grooves so nicely. It has really nice fills, and nie lazy groovy feel when the song breaks toward the end.

[pekonasubi]

Great sounds... I love your drumming!

I agree too 100%.

Please more soundgarden. And prease more rock!!!

[pekonasubi]

Great sound! I love your drumming!

[CRGentile]

okie dokie...withing 10 seconds, you're just not playing what is played, and you're relying too much on the original track. this is elementary.

[thebaron1979]

Steady fella, the guy gave his all and was feeling it. Some the drum play is elementary but that's drumming - the guy played it his way to the song and it was good. Enough said.

[gun4hire]

3:54

even turns the snare on. Amazing.

[ILikeWafflz]

That's how you do a drum cover.

[MrJuvefrank]

after the scream, is time to go crasy pounding the skins. Awesome song and drumming. Thanks

[millerfaekelty]

da bomb,!!! great song, i have played with a few GOOD box bangers(scottish slang for drummers!) and you are fukin good! drum on n be cool! by the way take on every influence you can and twist em into you! you aint copying, its called jamming bro, it makes you different if you want it to. and anyway if you got it... twist on!

[millerfaekelty]

da bomb,!!! great song, i have played with a few GOOD box bangers(scottish slang for drummers!) and you are fukin good! drum on n be cool!

[itswhip]

I used to love playing this song on the drums. Brings me way back, man. Nice skills you got

Nice work on the recording portion of the job, too, the levels are perfect.

Where are you from? I know just about their entire catalogue on guitar, we could rock it out

[toadboy15]

This is the best Soundgarden drum cover on youtube.

Every other cover I see is either WAY off or shows no emotion.

That's 70% of drumming. You have to feel it, not just play it.

[Hedged001]

That was awesome stuff.......

[Mogilny892k5]

I love how you put emotion into this...most all other drum cover videos on youtube, they drummers are robots...well done

[Mogilny892k5]

I love how you put emotion into this...most all other drum cover videos on youtube, they drummers are robots...well done

[leocasey04]

Dude, that was Killer......

[Hedged001]

Awesome song! Brilliantly done..............

[Coldiscool]

very good!

[jpbenge]

Sick playing, bro! Solid, loose and on point every note. Nice work!

[mauricetomas]

very nice. you have extremely good control. thank you for posting. hope you are playing live. people need to see what a good drummer looks and sounds like:p

[Binaural03375]

sounds tight dude

[TheFENDERMAN83]

Nice

[vgw1971]

Oh, I see your kit on your site. What size shells? What sizes and type of cymbols/hi hat?

[vgw1971]

Holy Crap! Well played bro! Love this song! I wish Soundgarden would reunite. They would sell out every arena. About to buy a set of yamaha birch. What is set up? What type kit?

[Abhik262]

@vgw1971 they announced a reunion recently :D

[usmankhalid1982]

I love this song, and you played it really well xevifoo. Awesome stuff...! :)

[Hugolastra]

la mejor rola.... y que chingona la pila wey.. .la tocaste bien chingona! buen trabajo :D!!

[9serchiyo]

i play guitarr and you are some one that i would like to perform with just because you sound so in to what you are doing and i do believe that you enjoy it and that is what really matters good job man

[kcobain8]

amazing man.

fantastic job

[Louie14DGB]

Unbelievable

[nobutyeh]

NICE WORK.

[iainjames03]

If there was ever a modern-day drum concerto, 'Like Suicide' would be a definite contender. And you nail it. Awesome.

[Raudam]

Damn bloke!!! Not many people can make an eight piece drum kit sound so Fucking Great!!! Any drummer would be envious after watching this clip!! Top stuff mate, you're right up there with Matt Cameron! :)

[nuuu1kvarr]

dammm you are goooodddd

[MICHAELAFRO]

Fucking sweet man... =D

Ace performance aye.

[habit1979]

[oONeLOo]

Cant stop watching this!!

[snorgisborg2]

play room a thousand years wide.

[drmmrBReTTe]

Hey, great cover, I love playing this song, the dynamic shift is one of my favorite parts.

[countrysamurai]

Oh shit you rock...I love this song!

Great job!!!!!

[mightyjoy]

great job! yeah, the video is off from the sound by an eighth note towards the end, but that's YouTube, not you.

[rawheatley]

Great Video. The sound and video kind of lose sync towards the end, but still I learned something today. It went on to my favorites as well.

[jons44]

Amazing...just amazing! I added this as one of my favorites

[jc3123085]

good shit man, this song is good for alternating between your feet on the hi hat and bass drum. Try the package from a perfect circle

[wackosaco]

fucking ace man, love soundgarden!

[operamandan79]

fuck'n sweet!! Such a great concept, couldn't have picked a better song, and you a need band... you're too good not to. I have to make a request now, put a tool song out there or maybe The Mars Volta... I'd like to see you cover Danny Carey and/or Jon Theodore.

[ave1987amsterdam]

WOW

[erod550]

Very nicely done. You did my favorite Soundgarden song justice.

[mannaiadio]

CONGRATULATIONS! ;)

[lilabitch]

Damn, you're really good, nicely fucking done! Matt would be proud.

[menegox]

Wow! this is like timetravel...I practically studied this song back in 1994/95! But not on drums...I tried to copy Cornell's vocals...well, it didn't work quite that well.

Excellent Cover!

[oONeLOo]

okay wait...

is there a slow mo button somewhere?

cant see them fills!

too fast fer my eyes.!!

[DrPhrenology]

I clicked on this with my flamer drawn, but you totally nailed it. Keep up the great work. You're hard work has paid off with a tremendous performance, and you should be very proud of this!

[hdp26]

i want to play drums ! haha

bolox

[bnmlord]

The drum on this song is so Matt Cameron, great drummer. Great cover man !

[dernaegle]

you need to do "the day i tried to live" by soundgarden....those drums ROCK!!!

[varethika]

love this song even more..!! fuckin rule my man!!

[darkstarmarvel2]

I sent this video to matt's myspace but since celebrities usually don't reply, I'll wont know what he thinks about it

[cbaja71]

MAGNIFICO!

[chrispin50]

hey great cover man im just like you i just started playing drums and i just caant play this song i hope later i will cuz i cant keep the time with th left food the hi hat pedal but when i get mor practice with that every thing else i got except some fils someday ill post a video of me covering this song

[chrispin50]

de haber sabido que eras de españa te lo ponia en español haha saludos desde mexico

[cstrong1122]

Great job dude. With the energy you were playing with, I could tell you really love the music. Very nice indeed. Thanks!

[leas77]

Nice. Play one for a perfect circle.

[boggie91]

I can't believe someone covered this!!! Thank you man!!! This song is one of probably 10 songs that complete my life, and you covered it! Excellent sound though! I've heard that Matt used two drum sets during the recording, to create that awesome sound!

I'm not a drummer, I tried to play it on my friend's drums, but I can nail only the beginning. Now I'm gonna watch this over and over till I learn to play it!

Simply awesome!

[jakdup07]

Next time turn your snares off until the hit before the solo. Otherwise awesome cover.  Love this song!!

[321joana123]

Goog!! Good... good good!!

I didn't had to thing of something sweet!! :)

[jons44]

Phenomenal!!!

[MiloshVictory]

great work mate

[AceOfSpade1234]

Dude, I've listened to that song, at least 300 times in the past near 15 years,... You didn't miss one beat, not ONE! Perfect!

[pewpie99]

he's hired! quick someone get the band back together!! screw cameron!! ;D 5/5 - great track - gret drumming :)

[nicknack989]

props man this is sick

[supernuknomn]

Man! i love dis song! iam learning 2 play it on da drums but its so complicated, especially the parts after u tighen the snare... Thanks Xevi 4 makin dis video. This song is a real struggle

[DSotWall]

Dis mah nigga rih' hurr. He da bes' der' be fo sho'. Nigga, play Mr. Bungle on dem drums. Herd? On da real, playa.

[cannotcompute]

Good song, and good cover. I wish I had the coordination to play an instrument DX

[jeffscottjeff]

Excellent. I'd love to hear "Mind Riot" next. That is probably my favorite Matt Cameron beat, I need to see how it's done.

[xevifoo]

"Jesus Christ Pose" will follow soon....well, soon means ...sooner or later... ;p

ROCK ON!

Xevi

[Prickish45]

Damn... you're probably the only person in the world who could give Matt a challange

[xevifoo]

haha! :D LOL!

No bud, trust me:

There are many MANY thousands of drummers much better than me and pretty damn close to Mat.

I'm far away of being 50% of how good he's.

Glad you like the video!

ROCK&ROLL!

Xevi

[Andragon90]

Wouldn't say a challenge, but damn. Matt would be proud; that was actually good. You keep tempos very well. Even with weird ass time sigs.

[elgobbes]

It's one thing to play it, but it's another to write it.

[xevifoo]

I agree 100%.

To copy it's only a matter of time, to create...it's another whole different story.

X.

[boggie91]

genius statement

[stefano10c]

soundgarden for ever... keep rockin' great work

[DiGiTaLdAzEDM]

I just searched for this song--a personal fav--as I had not heard it in ages. After listening to the original, I found this cover. What a treat!! Very well done--in the days of 'Guitar Hero' where so many people are diverted away from actually learning to play an instrument, such awesome musicianship is truly appreciated. Thanks!

[cydoniansheriff]

honest to god !! iv been watching all your vids for the past 2 hours almost and im now a HUGE fan =)

5/5

favourited

subscribed !!

keep it up xevi

[chismitorock]

la hostia!!!!

[rusamene]

Fuckin'A!

[dottoreguzmanrulz]

great drumming man

Nice angle, you even got the bass drum in the shot

Keep it up

[butterflybaby28]

love your covers. took me a long time to learn this song and you did a fantastic job. you should consider doing geek u.s.a. by smashing pumpkins. i'd love to see it and i'm sure others would too.....

[idiotsrus92]

i definitely would love to see you do Geek USA. try it out and let's see what you can do, Xevi!

[Scoffed]

This video is pure gold! You rock keep it on!

[cincy1976]

Thanks for doing this.  This is probably my second favorite Soundgarden song (behind 4th of July), and I agree, it's certainly one of the best songs ever written. I f I had any idea how to drum, I would do my own cover, but seeing as I chose to play the guitar instead, I am content with watching your amazing performance instead.

Great job!

[brehd]

quality bro

[ahumancartoon]

Great job! This is one of all time favorites of Soundgarden too.

[mend555]

great job xevi.

[pwarren1010]

The greatest musics found under ground again.You know like where Soundgarden came from.

[ScottyintheSky]

Great job dude. Great job. This is one of my all time favorite songs, and I can really appreciate someone taking the time to learn it so well.

just great. I'd Jam with you anyday man, that was awesome. Quality watching.

[bronyaur1]

Great job man. I too always wanted to learn this song but on guitar. To say the least one day, years later, I did. Thanks for the accuracy and the right feel.

[darkstarmarvel2]

this proves how badass Matt Cameron really is. Dude, that was awesome!!

[mylojakebobby]

please can you do sme slipknot or rage against the machine

[EccentricRichard]

Slipknot? Oh, for God's sake...

[mylojakebobby]

wot? lol

[EccentricRichard]

Slipknot are just about the worst band ever to disgrace this planet and humankind...

[mylojakebobby]

but there new song rocks and the drumming kick ass!!!

[EccentricRichard]

In your imagination, maybe =P

[brys12]

Yeah I gotta agree with you here, the Slipknot music is pretty bad, and I find the drumming is just random sh!t half the time...

[countrysamurai]

I would have to disagree with you...that honor belongs to insane clown posse. (Lame clown(s) posse) LOL

Holy shit...where in the world does this garbage come from???

This is a great vid though and his drumming rocks!

Great choice for a song to cover!

[Hedged001]

Sublime!

[kapikpai]

Perfect cover!

keep on the good stuff

Kapi Rock

[seetherDII]

FUCK SEETHER FOR EVEN THINKING ABOUT SOUNDGARDEN, that shits a fucking disgrace

[seetherDII]

[darkstarmarvel2]

[cincy1976]

seether sucks... soundgarden is so much better it's not even really a contest.

[darkstarmarvel2]

@cincy1976 exactly, it's like comparing filet mignon with bologna

[hrco85]

[jefflovescereal]

[harro35]

[subby33]

Awesome.

[inmerit]

Matt Cameron is a fussy drummer and you got him down pretty tight.

The fill at 4.53 is bob on the money.

Well done.

[187beyond]

[ingravida]

Xavier, un trabajo muy fino en esta canción,que envidia tu talento!!

[salelesa1983]

This is the song because of which I've always wanted to play drums. How many jeans did I wore out trying to play it by clapping my hands on my knees...

Fantastic work, dude...

Keep on with Soundgarden

[atoussaint7]

Great song choice, bro. You're missing the tom hit on the main groove (the higher tom), and the floor tom is playing 8ths, too.

[countrysamurai]

Mr. Foo...WTF??? Your drumming skils are both epic and very compelling!!! I absolutely LOVE Soundgarden...Chris Cornell is Godlike in his vocal interpretations and Just Like Suicide is one of my all time favorite songs! You're take on the song is amazing as are your drumming skills!!! You absolutely rock...do you play in a band??? Rock On and thank you for posting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[activehead]

[mariomendes]

[jonf21c]

That is very cool, you're very talented.

[bamatoolhead]

You are an extremely talented drummer, man. Please learn some TOOL. I know it would be fun as hell for you, and entertaining as hell for us! Check out Rosetta Stoned, off their new album 10,000 days. I've got a few tunes on guitar uploaded myself. If you ever come near bama, holla- we'll cover this soundgarden @ a local free music night..Rock on dude.

[MillsLayne]

WOW! No it wasn't exactly like the original in solo parts, but I think it actually sounded better. Hell, you were really getting into it. Awesome song, too. Good job dude!

[reillymusic]

that is some mighty fine drumming my boy!!

[thecleaner084]

2 words, Fucking Brilliant, well done mate :D

grunge is not dead, it still lives on in the hearts of millions of people !!!!

[ElGranPepon]

Podries tocar una d'en Bisbal. Juas. Qua pasa. Molen es teus videos. Un dia d'aquest et fare alguna petició, o algo de Iron Maiden, o algo més tranquil, rollo strokes o killers. Nos las vemos

[bassmanedd]

You are an awesome drummer

[nikesb2406]

chris wrote this song about a bird that flew into the slider door and died.

[thebna89]

Yeah, but it suffered, so he finished it with a brick.

[thegreenass182]

Ohhh... that song it`s so sick.

I love so much Soundgarden...

I Was watching the Probot`s video and you are so good on that songs.

Play more of that band please!

Take care men!

[nikesb2406]

you got that right man, great cover........everytone should listen to more soundgarden

[hockeydrummer39]

Great job! ever since i saw this vid (3 days ago) i have been trying to learn the intro!

What type of heads do u recomend for a drum set?

[borishog]

cool man

[llamaguitarist]

you should try playing pretty much any song by He Is Legend. "I Am Hollywood" would be a good one

[billpeart]

great playing, i really enjoyed it. keep it up bro!

[burnthewitch]

yeah it's out of synch. Too bad. But you did a great job of playing. Nice to have you back.
