The Fall of Troy - Semi Fiction Cover (hunterplaysdrums)

[TWiNKatGC]

There are mistakes here and there, but honestly the performance is excellent enough to be able to forgive all those really minor mistakes completely.

Good stuff.

[martinwaltfor]

mann you´re awesome!!!

[CHAINSAWMANIAC]

slight timing off set but pretty sweet

[idontexist01]

i have the same set. nice

[keckelma]

Timing was off on some spots... but being that this is TFOT, I can't really blame 'ya (I couldn't do better). Great cover!

[andrew12398]

I was gonna try this on drums but it's so fucking confusing I didn't even bother. Amazing job dude. I think I'll just try a guitar cover haha

[ChaostheClown]

that was sweet, man, you make me wanna learn this now.

i love the fall of troy, i think i'm gonna give it a try, hopefully i can come close to how well you did.

and this was 2 years ago? damn man. great success! ^_^ haha

[yourname50]

My band wanted to cover this, they told me it sounded easy on drums. I listened to it...fucking guitarists and bassists.

[morzan383]

@yourname50 you need to your bass player he should know that this is hard as hell

[morzan383]

@yourname50 you should slap the bassist he should know how hard this crap is XD

[exsymphony]

fuckin nice bro im not a drummer but i like the drums on this song. do chapter 3 if u can or sledgehammer haha

[CHAINSAWMANIAC]

slightly off timing at certain spots but expect you have it down by this time... i mean this was posted bout a year ago... drum on sir!!!

[smokekushinsocal]

really great job bro

[pushherinthesnow]

Yeah, I actually saw this video quite a while ago, but only recently realized how well you played it. I've been playing this song with my band recently, the last few months, and there is definitely a groove to this song. Especially during the first guitar solo. It takes a while to play this right. Anyway, thanks for the help. I am slowing learning how to play this song up to par. Keep it up. And what songs were you planning on putting up? I look forward to them.

[pushherinthesnow]

Hunter, all I have to say is you and Andrew forsman are the only people on YouTube who can play this song. I appreciate you taking the time to play it clean rather than focus on duplicating every hit. True drummer. You are awesome. Everyone one else trying to cover fall of troy on drums, you can learn something from this man.

[hunterplaysdrums]

Thanks dude. Now I finally have my drums set up somewhere again and I think I can start doing more videos... I think I did this one like a year and a half ago?

[lamboman125]

damn.

thats all i have to say about that

[juanjijon]

cool, great, awesome and so on and so on 5stars

[eBeauLive]

great cover dude!!

[RockOfAges79]

wow. your pretty good!

[ianhatz]

tank.

[wertybobbobson]

nice (Y)

bit of a camp style :P relax a bit, but then again hard to playing any tfot song,

duno if it was on purpose but like how i can see ya bass pedal through hole

[mynameisjmold]

holy crap that was really good

[ANGELSandBlink44]

dude u look very tense when u play and hunched... and u look uncomfortable but good cover i guess i give it a 3 1/2

[boardercreep]

not bad at all but i hav 2 say i love the setup!

[Finellers]

you hit three cymbals at the same time in there. it was really cool. your really good.

andrew rubbed off on you while you were obsessing over tfot's music. congrats boss

[ANGELSandBlink44]

u look really tense when u play dude but beside that nice cover

[mirrastyle4524]

really awesome dude. love your kit too.

[minivinny889]

fuckin awsm!

[StyrofoamPlatess]

ur snare sounds weird. its like ur hitting plastic

[dduong16]

holy shit i cant believe i found hunter...

[AlmoshT]

holyshit my name is hunter

[drummerpanacea]

great job man. have u tried a man a plan or ex ceations yet?

[Blurrymoon85]

Andrew's the fucking man. You're good, dude.

[lespaulgtars]

1:45 to 2:10 is awesome

[noobish1234]

no u mean 2:10- 2:30

[euphoricxd]

nice skills man, but the rack really isn't necessary. you don't have much to put on it. you're just taking up more room.

[Humanzy]

Those things are pretty cool, if you play really hard it keeps all your shit together.

[chopthesam719]

nice set, i want 2 get a gretsch

[iAmCalebRentpayer]

great job! check out my the fall of troy drum vids, i need some advice haha

[rhysgrundo]

that is freakin amazing...can't wait to see more

[Darren1337]

Good points: you played it flawlessly, and the bit at 1:43 was amazing. Bad points: your snare sounds really weird, more like a clicking sound than a snare, and your posture seems really weird. Your body is turned to the left? Other than those 2 things, perfect :D

[IlxVeNoMxIl]

everybody's posture is different...

[IlxVeNoMxIl]

Yea you should definately try Seatlantis and TFoT would be proud of you!!

[EclipsePB109]

SEATLANITIS!! I have been looking for a cover... and this Semi-Fiction is beautiful

[rfwills]

I can play the whole thing on guitar... we should cover it together. Where do you live?

[GuitarSilkGod91]

where do you live? i wish to start a band with you. lol

[blazinggibson]

YOU SUCK HUNTER! yeah, just joking. That was really good, man, I finally got a chance to watch it.

[STEELINMUSIC]

Great execution, good technique and high energy! I agree with the other post; it's tight. Keep it up and I look forward to hearing and seeing more of your stuff.

[NSTLLLL]

Good video, great playing, but thoes SM57s arent made to be overhead mics.

[hunterplaysdrums]

I appreciate it, man. About the mic's though, I was just working with what I had available. I'd much rather use my D6 instead of that SM58 on the kick, but I just don't have a lot of my gear with me right now.

[bigtrojanhorse]

good shit, tight

[hunterplaysdrums]

Thanks man!

[moviemakerlover09]

very nice man. A couple mistakes but overall a grand performance man i know so many of their songs on guitar including this one that would be awesome to start a cover band but o well. 5* Performance.

[hunterplaysdrums]

I learned the song a good while ago, and I did it by ear without transcribing. I always expect a little disparity between the original track and my rendition, as I'm not the original drummer that laid it down in the first place. Thanks though!
