  • Dang dude you get down.

  • Foot pedal doing all the work cool love it

  • @Ulrikth kool man, i know nothing about drummign as im a guitarist myself. im in a band called Today the sun dies. check em out

  • Fuck yeah

    

  • Excellent job! Those are double strokes on the feet during the bomb blasts, yeah?

  • that's the REAL audio of your drums under your video?

  • no 16th on the kicks? (sad face)

  • no sound to snare hits around 2:12

  • am I hearing the original drums under your playing?

  • awesome understanding of nydm/slam

  • This is awesome bro!!!! kudos!!

  • Amazing, your style is very like the dude from Nile!!

  • @spoilheaps Not really... The most distinguished part of George's playing is his pedal technique and this guy uses double strokes - George doesn't.

  • i kno how it is to eat alot but not gain shit lol it sucks

  • I'm just as skinny and i eat all the fucking time.

  • Nice drumming

  • Awesome dude

  • is it just me or does this guy look like that blond kid from the breakfast club

  • Dude do you heel toe on the kicks?

  • i see u get tired when u blast do it longer time like a man

  • @psyfrix1 lol jk jk

  • Nice playing man, just a question... what ride is that? not sure if Mb10

  • Very nice, I watched the whole thing and for a you tube video thats huge!

  • What are those drumheads lol?

  • awesome!

  • shoulda spent more time syncing the mics with the video; and as for the drumming FUCKING AWESOME!

  • fucking sick!

  • Mean dude! Kind of a dumb question but do you practice with a metronome?

  • Who cares about getting to be more bulky, you're muscled and fit as far as I can judge. And a damn good speedy drummer!! Keep up the good work.

  • Is this Dying Fetus?

  • what song is this?

  • HIGH FIVE!

  • AMAZING! CHEERS ol CHAP!

  • Great job man, so far the best cover I've seen. The sound is great

    Brutal \m/

  • You should be playing traditional blasts when they first come in, not everything together.

    Also, just a tip, when you're playing at slower tempos (1:20) your double-bass with sound a lot more clean if you play single strokes rather than heel-toe.

  • Bravo! Nice Drumming. I saw some of the childish posts on here, didn't think it was a fair representation of the work you put into learning the instrument and being good enough to play on video. Great Job!

  • what foot technique are you using bro?

    nice playing

  • dude disregarding what people are saying about your weight; nice drumming. they only thing i dont like is your zildjian china man. i cant stand them.

  • Comment removed

  • Heel toe tecnique?

  • i wish i had yer setup

  • I don't understand why there are still jeolous people on earth, it's such a pointless emotion. The dude plays awesome in this vid, I can't do it that way I'm sure

  • What China and Splash/China are you using?

  • @MattBDrumsNZ The china/splash is a Stagg DH, 10" at a guess. I don't know about the china, but from what I can see it's prolly a Zildjian Avedis A, possibly A Custom, 18".

  • perfect speed.

  • "broo-uhl" I love it

  • the strokes are played very loudly and probably trey doesn't play them that hard on stage

  • what's up with the heel-toe at 1:22 though? it's way too slow to be controlled properly (apparently), surely you could play that with singles? just curious, since i've never learned heel-toe myself. looking for pros and cons in people who do.

  • OMG

  • dude you should definitve stop giving a fuck about all those fuckers who insult you or criticise you with out any constructive criticism. your drumming is sick and you should definitly keep it on.

  • is your bass drum pedal tension loose or tight .

  • can any1 help me with getting my snare to sound like that?

  • Badass double-strokes on the kick, dude.

  • i wish i had heel-toe chops like you, but unfortunately i have size 14 feet and cant afford longboard pedals. nice vid though.

  • i must say that this is a very very good cover. people think that you have to play the song note for note (which is not a bad thing) but the idea of a cover is to make it your own. i can see that you dont let the nay-sayers keep you down. keep up the good work bro. much respect from the U.S (not all of us are ignorant assholes)

  • guud job man. fukk these gay ass arguments. just keep progressing and never stop \m/

  • hey man, this cover is sick. The only criticism i have is during the blasts on the ride cymbal near the start of the song it's not supposed to be a unison pattern, it's supposed to be a single stroke roll between the ride and snare with the bass drum played on the ride hits. Other then that man this cover is sick and you're foot speed is so much better then mine lol.

  • That snare sounds fucking amazing!!! what snare is that and what heads do you use?? really really nice drumming btw (tho a little blurry bassdrumsound)

  • Dude, u need to get rid of that old Paiste 302 and nvest in a better crash. They were the cheapest of the cheap (when they were still around, not sure if they still are.) You can't even hear that thing.

  • Dude, can I just say first off all, ignore the people giving you smack, this is a great cover and your a great drummer. I have mad respect for you after reading your reply comments, not many people would reply in such a mature way, so congrats :) keep up the great work!

  • 360p better sound quality than 480p :)

  • how long have u been doing a heel toe technique ?

    i begin to play with that technique for 2 weeks but seem like it not work at all ,my left foot just like a lazy bitch .... . help me dude

    greeting from Việt Nam \m/

  • @DivinityOfDoom lol ya he kinda took that a bit rough, great cover though, and he is has power in his strokes so eh

  • damn dude, you really need to start eating

  • @DivinityOfDoom I have a high metabolism and eat plenty of food. More than most people. It seems to do nothing.

    Pisses me off that I can't get much bigger without ridiculously over feeding myself, drinking protein/mass builder shakes and getting in the gym. There are alot of people out there that would love a metabolism like mine. When you get people like yourself pointing it out makes it less desirable. You know next to nothing about my lifestyle. This is a drum video. Don't slander my weight.

  • sorry man I didn't think you were gonna get mad or anything... It's just you have your shirt off couldn't help but notice ya' know

  • @jamestfe123

    Better be skinny like you than way overweight like 60-80% of americans. At least you don't sweat like a pig from little effort, like fat americans do, because all the fat acts as isolation. At least you're mobile, at least your joints are not grinding themselves apart etc. Fuck those skinny remarks man. Keep it healthy!

  • @jamestfe123 Couldnt agree more!! Im the same with my weight........ Great drumming btw

  • @jamestfe123 hells yeah!

  • @jamestfe123 haha, I got exactly the same "problem"^^ btw nice drumming! 

  • @jamestfe123 Same problem here man. pisses me off haha.

    good job btw.

  • @jamestfe123 oh dude i feel you... i cant seem to get weight no matter how much i eat. I really know what you mean, it's fucking frustrating

  • @jamestfe123 Bra-vo

  • @jamestfe123 Just so you know, the only way anyone can get bigger is to eat lots of food and lift weight. Thats just science. It's irrelevant though, because you're a sick drummer anyways. Just stay fit have fun.

  • @jamestfe123 Having a super high metabolism really does suck, I feel ya man. Awesome cover though!

  • @jamestfe123 hahah wow, people really give a shit about your weight?? haha playing drums this fast, practicing this much burns 1,000's of calories... look at all the death metal drummers out there.. no one is fat.

  • @DesecrateMusic Nick Barker, Gene Hoglan, Digested Flesh's drummer... just sayin ha

  • @NecrovoidOfficial While they are fast, they're not real death metal drummers, meaning they don't keep extremely fast tempos for exceedingly long periods of time.

  • @jamestfe123 fucken right man. im the same way. i hate when people are like "you never eat dude, whats up with that" i prolly have an intake of about 6000-7000 calories on most days.

  • @DivinityOfDoom he eats babies :)

  • @bslayerw sure, if they're 3lb malnourished crack babies.

  • @DivinityOfDoom youre a tool....

  • @imbrown1990 It's nice to be usefull.

  • personally im not a drummer, but!!! to all the people saying the heel toe method is cheating are douches. chris adler uses it and he is a dope drummer!

  • @DivinityOfDoom That's some funny shit! haha

  • Comment removed

  • @DivinityOfDoom

    Just shut the f*uck up man!

  • @DivinityOfDoom wow !!! I think you hit a soft area there !!

    that's quite a reaction from him there !...

  • work on timing (8

  • JESUS GIVE THIS GUY A BREAK, IN MY OPINION HE WAS A FUCKIN' BEAST.

    WELL DONE DUDE

  • man all these people pointing out what you're doing wrong are doing so because they feel the need to justify their inability to play this song as well as you do. you're a great drummer man, dont let these dickheads' comments get to ya

  • Look up Dick Cully. An old drum master!!

  • O.o nice flying dildo and nice gravity blasts

  • man i prefer totaly you're earlier video....

  • you should of won

  • Don't use heel toe at slow parts, it just sounds really sloppy. The faster parts were cleaner, but the slow parts sounded bad.

  • loving the sound, did this win? it better had of done

  • haters gonna hate.

    good cover

  • What's all the buzz about heel toe? fucking pricks, I find it much harder than singles. Good job man (:

  • too good man... ultra awesome

  • Yeah sorry man, seems like you have the feed for the drum track on the actual song turned up over what you're playing. The funny part is i dont even consider the drummer of dying fetus anything past decent at best. Check out a drummer named Nick Pierce...you can learn so much from that guy. Hey man at least you tryed which is alot more then alot of these people can say.

  • @xScars Listen to the actual song, then listen to this video again, my drums are quite clear. Nick Pierce is amazing, I've already heard of him tho. Trey Williams isn't the only extreme metal drummer I know of, he is, however a very decent drummer in my opinion and his drum parts for dying fetus help me build endurance. There is always going to be a better or worse drummer for people to relate stuff to. I like his style, hence the cover.

  • @jamestfe123 I think what xScars is trying to say is the feed from your headphones is too loud, which (I think for anyone) would effect playing (i.e., play too slow/fast)

  • @xScars Dude you can hear James' drums fine, so shut up? Trey's one of the best death metal drummers out there so quit talking out of your ass. Also, nice try James - work on tightening your feet up a bit, your hand-work seems to be doing you fine. Maybe attempt to play from your ankle with single strokes instead of heel-toe/doubles? Just a suggestion, I find it makes my playing a lot tighter.

  • @xScars i hope your a god at drums bc to say trey williams isnt a decent drummer is ridiculous

  • @xScars trey has sick speed and endurance, and i like how he doesn't overdo stuff with dying fetus, many drummers tend to put in to much and taking over as a allmost a lead instrument, in metal drums is very important, but i digg drummers who makes room for guitars and stuff by keeping it simple. i also digg the way he uses his symbals, where he puts them etc:) all personal taste man, can't say one is better than the other, although i must say nick pierce blasting traditional grip is amazing.

  • @xScars u havent listened to the song enough if you can here the real drums

  • @OneSpudd Hear*

    

  • it was a great cover. but i am just not a fan of heel toe. i'm all about power and heel to just isn't convincing to me. either way though good job man, keep it up.

  • TEACH ME HOW!

  • Comment removed

  • What bass drum is that?

  • Your kit is so fucking perfect sounding man. Epic cover dude.

  • man sorry you have to deal with so many no-life assholes in the comment section

  • Dude heel toe is way harder(IMO) than regular footwork! (I think is the right term)

    I respect that you play heel toe. Good drumming, keep it up!

  • you need more POWERRRR!!

  • Stop paying attention to people being cunts, this shit is bangin!

  • excellent job man, fuck the haters their probally just jealous- what drum heads are you using they sound sick?

  • learn to play the bassdrum properly that heel toe is pathetic

  • @MegaNakki69 If by properly you mean single strokes then your grip on what properly is, is deluded. Your Videos consist of black op game clips... what makes you think I'm going to take your opinion on board when there's nothing on your channel for me to respectfully take into account. I'm already developing single strokes. Learn to give criticism properly instead of slating what you probably know nothing about.

  • @jamestfe123 dont listen to people dude, ur freaking awesome at drums, do ur thing bro

  • @MegaNakki69 how do u think speed metal drummers do it dipshit? thats wat i thought, now go back to playing black ops in yur apartment...o w8 sry let me correct that, what i ment to say was go back to playing black ops while eating cheetos off your chest in yur moms basement stupid troll

  • @MegaNakki69 unless you can beat him, shut up. and even if you ARE better...... still shut up

  • It's kind of ridiculously inhuman and obsessive to play songs that are this technical perfectly just for a YouTube cover. You comment people need to post an even better cover before even thinking he hit anything incorrectly.

  • Holy shit. Are you playing it strait heal? Or swivel, heal toe what?

  • omfg that hurts to watch.  your wrist looks like its doing ALL of the work on your left hand!! are you even using your fingers??!?

  • @BittenMitten Those are blast beats I believe .-.

  • @MrMdovr2

    i'm an extreme metal drummer myself but oh man his form (maybe its the angle) looks painful (especially on the left hand)

  • @BittenMitten But isn't that how its supposed to be played? All using the wrist? I mean I get how crazy that looks but it looks right to me .-.

  • @MrMdovr2

    at high tempos generally you should be using your fingers, and relying LESS on your wrists to do the job. Again, it may be the angle, and he might actually be using his fingers, but slamming your wrist like that is not the best way to play blasts, because they are absorbing an incredible amount of force.

    Finger muscles ftw!

  • @BittenMitten i´m not quite sure about this man, i play with both, but i use fingers onlye when time´s like up above 250, it all depends of how confortable you feel whether you play with fingers or with your wrists... kollias only uses wrist so... i´ts up to preference ;)

  • @chinoto

    good point, i guess it is more preference, and I am a little biased.

    \m/

  • way better than what i can do i play guitar pretty kick assedly but i also play drums but im not that good haha i can do the double bass for deciple but its very difficult for me

    haha btw good job owning those shit talkers

  • It's fucking sick bro!

  • what kind of pedals do you use

  • awesome fuck these haters i think this kicks ass

  • I can't believe all the bullshit people are saying to you about the video. OK, it's not played absolutely perfectly, but god damn this is good shit. Keep drumming man.

  • Ok, the way I see drum covers is, It doesn't fucking matter if he does everything exactly right. As long as hes on time, and does the same kind of shit. Even when bands play live, the drummers dont play EXACTLY whats on the record, so everyone fuck off. This cover kicks ass.

  • Doing the blast beats at the starting wrong, its supposed to be bassdrum+ride then snare alternating instead of bassdrum+ride+snare.

  • @calvinjaramillo I might aswell post a third attempt at this song cos i play it like that now anyway when i practice.

  • @jamestfe123 looking forward to it, you're drumming is otherwise great

  • Dying Fetus shorts= +10 agillity and +20 blast beat skill

  • @MaggotMuncher96 rofl fuck ya +20 thumbs up

  • nice heel toes man. awesome cover

  • Superb. It'd be awesome to see you do "Finite" by Origin. I look forward to seeing more covers. Keep up the metal bro \m/

  • Superb. It'd be awesome to see to do "Finite" by Origin. Keep up the awesome work bro. \m/

  • your not doin the actuall foot work.. as in.. you are a cheat!!

  • @fifielcoolio Nice one, another person who classes heel-toe as cheating, only this time, you actually have videos on your page and it appears your a drummer also, you should know better. I did it to the best of my ability at the time. At no point have i intentionally cheated, the notes are still there. Can't help it if my legs move half time and deceive you, thats the way heel toe works, two notes on one foot heel followed by toe, then again on the other. Single strokes or not. notes still there

  • @fifielcoolio dude when your going as fast as this guy and say you have to do a 8 song set list live you dont have enough energy to do it all in single stokes plus heal toe is way harder to do then single strokes at least to learn the techniuque anyway

  • @fifielcoolio Cheating would be deleting the bass drum track and replacing it with sampled bass drum sounds.

  • @fifielcoolio If heel toe is cheating, so is using a double stroke roll. Last I checked, the double stroke roll is listed in the P.A.S. 40 international rudiments. Heel Toe is a method of getting double stokes out of the bass drum. Double stroke=recognized rudiment, not cheating. You fail. Here's an alligator's mouth, stick your head in it.

  • you got so much stuff rong

  • @domg1domg8 You spelt "rong" Wrong. I'll focus on progressing in my drumming. I may have got stuff wrong. but as the time passes I can learn what i didn't play on reflection and rectify my mistakes.

  • niice.

  • great job

  • You've got an amazing talent pal.

    Jon

  • not bad, but the blasting is hesitated and a bit off, the double bass is wrong in some parts, otherwise i liked it.

  • great cover but at 1:21 when you do heel toe at that speed it really sound uneven

  • Why is this not a response to the Brutal Blast Off Competition video?

  • what track is that?

  • @SkiesOfDecapitation Your Treachery Will Die With You by Dying Fetus :)

  • @sickbo121 reverse dot.

  • Sloppy feet technique

  • what china is that in the middle!?

  • dude... i hope you win brah.

    is that a china in the middle?

    what kind. it's really tiny

  • 2:56: I am not usually a fan of death metal, or metal at all, but this beat is the shit. 

  • @Tfr3sh17 maybe you'll get into Dying Fetus then, they use beats like that all the time amidst the brutality, they always have good drummers playing for them.

  • @DreamTheater4life I can dig a lot of the beats and riffs, but I feel like sometimes it's all a little too much. Like the riffs and shit are slow than the sweep comes. I don't like how, not so much as bad with this group, but still, the lyrics always like a shock tactic. Anyway, the point I was making is simply put; 2:56 is some jungle groovin' shit, and I can dig.

  • Sick video, I'm curious what pedals u have. My only pointer is to try and use single strokes also not just doubles for some of the faster passages.

  • Fucking tasty mate ;)
