  • i used to be a Travis Barker fanboy like those guys...but then i took a Longineu Parsons to the knee.

  • longineu is great. Other great and fast punk drummers are Travis Barker of Blink, Stevo of Sum 41, Alex of Saosin, Mike Jimenez of Rufio, Zac Farro of Paramore, Gabe Mantle of Gob, Scott raynor of Blink, Matt Best of Tonight Alive, Chuck Comeau of Simple Plan, Cyrus Boolooki of NFG, Matt Worobec of Cauterize, Martin Gendreau of Reset

  • @jeremyunderground41 Rian Dawson of All Time Low

  • @thecrismaster099 is rian a great and fast drummer?

  • @jeremyunderground41 Yeah, but for All Time Low he slows down a bit, but live he is a beast, and in the old albums he is awesome.

  • This guy... by far is my favorite drummer

  • Great drummer, very cool guy

  • longineu and travis are the same style drummer they're both amazing...but Travis definately does better remixes...longineu is a little more creative with his solos but wouldnt say he's better talent wise

  • @pointless5ive im sorry man i have to disagree travis is no where near Longineu..Travis is all speed no substance...LP can play any style you can think of from heavy metal to funk, you name it LP can play it..he does stuff barker cant like use a swing groove in a pop punk song or a jazz fill he is ridiculous live man you should go see a yellowcard show..

  • @pointless5ive LP could kick Barker's butt in a street fight, too.

  • @Flurry27 Well duh, he's black.

  • best part :D 2:13

  • dang didn't even know he existed. I was looking for his father; which taught me @FAMU. This dude has skillz.

  • can´t you guys just stop talking about who is better? enjoy the show... 

  • he's my favorite member of the yellowcard :D

  • what the hell does he hit a t 1:40??

  • @thecrismaster099 it's a zil-bel

  • I am in love with this man.

  • The man sure loves his double strokes.

  • its very controversial and i love travis barker, blink is my favorite band, but as far as skill in drumming, LP is just about as good as it gets, and he is better than barker.

  • i think they are all good drummers. Theres no better than others.

  • I thought this guys voice will be like a very low voice.

  • AND I JIZZED IN MY PANTS.

  • @Flyingnifozro ahahaha XD i know he's amazing.

  • Wow! I have the same snare Drum! ^^

  • The top 2 rated comments are fucking spot on.

  • ok, Alex Rodriguez would kill both of these guys, im only saying this because i was watching a interview of Alex and some dude said that this guy is better, i disagree

  • look people, its as simple as this. Travis barker is a completely different style than LP. I love both but... Travis is a showman, he plays with blink and tons of other artists. LP is great, but Travis gets around alot more which is why he is so popular. Travis plays simple punk, and LP does alot of gospel and jazz riffs. Their both great, don't try to compare them to each other.

  • @spencerdukestv dude their bands play similar styles of music (pop punk) which is why they are compared. They should be compared to each other because the bands are similar styles. Using your logic it wouldnt make sense to compare any band to any different band because they are not exactly the same.

  • And to think of all the attention that Travis Barker gets. Guess that's the magic of MTV.

  • I met you last night in Newport Wales! You came and said hey to me and my friends in the crowd! You are a GOD!!

  • this guy is unreal

  • Holy shit! I knew LP was good but i didn't know he had these skills in him!

  • Comment removed

  • well i like LP but my all time favourite is dom howard :D

    its my opinion dont judge me

  • This guy can compete in any genre of music and has more skills and endurance then Travis Barker, Mike Portnoy, and Brann Dailor. Yet the sad part is you never hear about Longineu Parsons at all.

  • @Nightmarerulz6 I'll agree with Travis Barker, and I admit I'm not sure who Brann Dailor is, but Mike Portnoy? LP is excellent, definitely one of the best drummers today, but he's not better than Mike.

  • O.O! THOSE 3PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN A THING OR TWO ABOUT REAAL MUSIC IF THEY DONT LIKE THISSSS

  • The thing that's cool about LP is he is awesome, but doesn't care what people think, whereas Travis Barker (who is extremely talented as well) has a bit of an ego.

  • Damn he's good!! Has he ever been in any of the Guitar Center contests or anything?? It's sad you don't hear more aobut him.....he sure as hell deserves it...

  • He's amazing.. one of the best drummers I've ever seen..

  • Dude is good... but chad szeliga is better.

  • LP is fucking amazing.....he is my all time favorite drummer, second favorite was the rev from A7X...that sucks that he died

  • Travis just never does a bunch of different cool solos he always does his snare thing which anyone who plays in a marching band can do. I am not hating on travis he is my fav drummer and im just stating a fact

  • @dtruth2008 yeah, yeah get where you're comin from just sayin dude's got chops.

    I find LP a bit clinical, now Daddy Dave, there's an absolute MACHINE!!

  • It should be illegal to do the things that LP does on the drums.

  • Needs more cowbell...

  • at 2:40 the real solo begins i think... crazy shit :):) and stop that: "other drummers are better.." shit. i bet he would never say he´s better than travis, nor would travis say he´s better than lp.. both fantastic drummers, very unique and so just enjoy listening!

  • Amazing... how did 3 people dislike this? I don't understand lol

  • Me and him are like brothers or some shit cause i play the EXACT same way, fast sometimes, then groovy and rhythmical other times.

  • @foamysqueak11 exact same way but probs not as good ;D

  • @IlKAYEMlI bro u funny hahaha XD

  • @foamysqueak11 why thank you? :P

  • LP IS BEASTIN :[]

  • why did u leave adam for?????????? =((

  • LP for president! I'd vote for him!

  • My favorite drummer of all time. LP3!

  • The only thing that would make the runs at about 1:50 better is if there was not clicking from the sticks just barely hitting the rims. Don't get me wrong, it was amazing and he would whoop my ass even if he didn't have arms. Still perfect.

  • Single pedal, y'all.

  • @garrettmillerdrums No. 5:20 onwards he uses the double pedal many times.

  • @bleedfinger True, but in the ten years I have known him, that 30 seconds is the only time I've seen him use a double kick. 99% of the time he's a single pedal player and proud of it.

  • @garrettmillerdrums no he doesnt: look at his arms, he hits a suspended bass drum to his left with his stick :P still a single pedal man :D

  • sounds like a throwback to rodney holmes awesome solo, mixed with royster jr, and to the noob who said this guy is more "awesome than buddy rich" ummmm, you need to choke on some gene krupa....... these simplistic rudiments are what rich taught, maybe you are like a muppet, a simple puppet for 4/4, hahahaha

  • i think every pro drummer has their own type of play..

    will be unfair if we compare one to another.

  • I've never seen anyone do more Drum Rolls than LP :D

  • I hate how everyone has to compare drummers with Travis Barker on YouTube... This guy is pure talent, more than he gets credited for, 5*

  • he kinda remind me of thomas pridgen not just the appearance also the way he plays

  • I'm honoured that I had the opportunity to meet Longineu at RiverRock in Vancouver BC during the AMAZING Adam Lambert Concert... So thrilled that I was able to give him a hug & personally tell him how he's inpired me to pick up and start drumming on my jembe again. Yes he makes those drums speak!! Such a cool dude with a MIGHTY TALENT!!!

  • it just looks like he is moving in super speed :D

  • no drum commentary is complete without the mentioning good old travis barker. he's the best ever by the way he makes buddy rich look like a noob. by the way I have some ocean front property in arizona for anyone that wants to agree with me.

  • @drumdadio dude... "he's the best ever by the way he makes buddy rich look like a noob." are you serious!?

  • I'm starting to dislike Travis Barker mainly because he is WAY overrated. If Travis and Longineu had a drum battle, Longineu would kill.

  • i love him. yellowcard were so fucking good. i fuckin loved them so much. they should get back together. adam lambert sucks.. but i only listen to him for lingineu... he should get more drum solos....

  • @Amiiexx Longineu**.

  • @Amiiexx hey, umm yellowcard just got back together... :)

  • @dillster31v i knoww :) left that comment ages ago. realllly happy though :DD loll

  • hmm.. i always imagined his voice bigger and deeper haha

  • hah so did I until I heard it a few weeks ago =P

  • @Lott40 me too!

  • Why is this guy drummin for some homo pop star, pop doesnt give a shit about real musicians that actually know how to play real instruments, theres a place for drummers like this and its called rock n roll haha

  • @alessandrozerbone hes an incredible musician but adam lambert is equally talented ... and to answer you question ... cuz he gets ass tons of money to play for him

  • he shouldnt be compared to travis barker because he's way better than him

  • soooo under rated

  • He's been playing since he was 2.

    I'm glad he finally got the big break !!!

    hopefully Lambert or 19 are paying him good and he can bank some bucks.....

  • what cowbell does he use?

  • the reason why people compare barker and longineu is cause they sound very much alike..in my opinion,both are skilled,both are very good in what they do. there are really no such as thing as the greatest drummer ever cause you never know and it is a matter of opinion.

  • Yes but I think people get offended because Longineu really is a much better drummer. He is more creative and precise and has more..... heart?

  • Does anyone know where the DVD he has out is available from?

  • DAYAM!!

  • Mesmerizing!

  • My arms are tired. WOW!

  • Eh correcting myself!: He doesnt use the other pedal until the end.

  • No hes not using a double bass pedal hes just that good.

  • Comment removed

  • he has double bass on his kit

  • this guy is uber awesome. What talent..world class...

  • Can't wait to see Longineu jamming up there with Adam next week at the AMA's. He's such a kick ass drummer, and PERFECT for Adam's band. I'm gonna be the loudest one on the audience. LOL

  • Comment removed

  • This guy is the drummer for Adam Lambert's new band! World class drummer!

  • There's really no debate. If you guys actually think Travis Barker is better than this guy, you have no idea what you're talking about. This guy is pulling out gospel chops stuff it's absurd. Don't get me wrong, I like Barker, I've seen him in concert, but LP is substantially more skilled.

  • yea about the lp and tb debate there both amazing drummers in my opinion i think blink 182s drumming is better than yellowcard but i havent really seen travis do solos like this lp is definately better at doing solos than yellowcards drumming i know live he does more than the studio and tb live is also better than album but his solos are more show so really you cant compare them there both great at what they do but anyways i wanna hear lp do some metal

  • for his skills Travis is WAY overrated,

    on the other hand Longineu is underrated

  • thats true lp is very underrated and travis is overrated because of his hip hop beats and stuff and blink182 is more popular either way i love both drummers there both in my top fav drummers

  • @BreakB97598

    I usually don't place comments anywhere on Youtube, but I think this time I will make an exception.

    First of all you are talking about Travis Barker on a LP drum solo...? Alright so let's talk about him... He would eat this guy hands down.

    Why?

    Because TB is more Intouch musically in every single sense such as: Timing, Accuracy, Rhythmically (Such as Feel and Groove), Vocal Support, Technicality (Such as Accenting and Phrasing) and Emotionally.

  • @BreakB97598

    It's one thing to see TB in concert or on Youtube.

    It's another thing to realise that what he actually plays for Those gigs/ sessions is there to fit the music.

    I've seen him play a drum set, sitting 5 feet infront of me pulling out all sorts of advanced rudiments over his Whole kit; Sounding just like Tony Royster Jr, with subtle differences.

    Do your research and think outside the square.

  • @BreakB97598 travis is just a fairly talented icon... that and nothing more barely anyone knows who mike portnoy is... but every douche talks about travis lik hes ths shit

  • @BreakB97598 travis can play this with one hand. he really could

  • @BreakB97598 hell yeaH, U GOT THT RIGHT

  • @BreakB97598 I ALWAYS SAY SO!!! but people just don't listen... so sad... :(

  • I love this music! Longineu is so very talented just like his dad.

  • damnn this guy got some skillzzz and I seriously want a gong drum now :D

  • I'm a huge Yellowcard fan. They're my favorite band. LP is amazing. He brings style and creativity to an instrument that is difficult to be great at. Yet he's done it. But at the same time, I have to admit, Travis has done the same thing as well. They're both really good. I wouldn't classify either of them as the "best". I don't think i could choose between them if i had to.

  • travis as in travis barker?? he's a joke compared to LP

  • on the contrary, mr. hypocrite, if travis wasn't so busy showboating backbeats and junior high chops and being so pompous about it, I might have more respect for the man. yeah he's a decent drummer, but to put him in the same boat as LP is almost blasphemous

  • LP is amazing. i wish people wouldnt always compare every drummer to Travis Barker. it really takes away respect for the other drummers.

  • why do you always say one drummer is better then the other one. neither travis nor lp would say that he´s the best. they´re all very creative and very talented drummers.

    but this one is my favourite :) just love his style

  • he is a manchild!!!!!!!!!!

  • His solo is got alot of skill in terms of speed but it lack musicality except a couple times

  • *sigh* all i hear about is travis barker. They are completely 2 different styles. its almost like comparing michael phelps to hussein bolt.

  • @ZombieRTS lmao, you don't think travis could get a set that big if he wanted?

  • I think Travis Barker is pretty tight but in my opinion this guy totally outshines him.

  • that kit reminds me of the x7 through pdp i used to have, 8 10 12 14 16 22. Of course there was no gong drum and I couldnt play a quarter as well as he can. Always found it funny that such a talent was in yellowcrad who plays a generally simple drumwise style of music.

  • LP is awesome i miss yellowcard...

  • i know. i couldnt even find him on the worlds top 100. he deserves a spot.

  • agreed

  • Decent?

  • Underrated, considering how good he is. He has really good technique. Check out 'Way Away' by Yellowcard, the groove he goes into halfway through the song is VERY inspired.

  • LP does the best double-bass with I single pedal. I don't what people say! - It's true. (Smelly from NOFX is pretty good at that too.)

    And I like the way that LP snare-rolls with one hand.

    AWESOME!!

  • no thomas pridgen is best double bass on single pedal hands down

  • Wow! Just saw a video of that Thomas dude. He's pretty sweet! I thought it was LP ar first look he looks and plays really similar to him. I'm not sure who's better with the double bass hits though.... It's pretty close.

    Which band is Thomas Pridgen most known for playing with? Doesn't he play jazz.

  • Take a look at Mars Volta he plays some crazy stuff with them.

  • It's a shame yellowcard is on a hiatus, great drummer

  • wats hiatus mean ?

  • taking a break. most likely done for good

  • yeah, according to Ryan Key (yellowcard's singer/guitar) they MIGHT get back in the future, so yeah...

  • ive always thought this bloke deserved more recognition than he gets

  • yeah deffinetly! I agree! every kid says something like "Travis Barker is the best drummer in the world" or something like that, and yes he deffinetly is good, but Yellowcards drummer really is amazing and im suprised he does not get more recognition. hes sounds like if he keeps playig he could be like buddy rich haha. hes great

  • That''s so true ay.

  • Comment removed

  • the best!

  • Muito Foda Longineu Parsons toca muito.
