[TheDariel1234]

komiaa vanhalta salibandy pelaajalta

[nikketee999]

Voi oikeesti morjesta mite tää äijä vetää

[bleedfinger]

Epic Bassdrop is EPIC!

[atibingler]

[666DrippingFlesh666]

[jack2o12]

Sick style dude.

[BeffreyJobbin]

there is a burn mark on your snare! You are too brutal

[sttdrummer1994]

Amazing. Resembles a normal sized wee man from jackass to me. This guy's a god!

[jokurandomlol]

Just Another God From Pori !

[misterbiggz]

I am a guitarplayer but this inspires me!

[MrGoldfishAssassin]

@ 1:26 ... Is this guy a fuckin cyborg?

[icanmakeamess17]

There ya go i was your 256th like. Btw who the hell could dislike this and/or the band?

[DISARRAY3]

dont listen to the dislikes. im not big into this genre and i think this video is brilliant man. the sound is great energy is great, playing is awesome, but what got me was the through the eyes scene. absolutly brilliant.snare is cherry bro. hit me back with tuning, heads, and sample your using. its crisp but deep and has punch.

[JLnimrood]

@DISARRAY3 The best moment for me came when i finally pluged my AKG headphones with pretty low freqs. Than finnaly came something I´ve havent heard before and DAMN I didn´t expect such loud cannon shot Roland KD7. Blowned my head into another dimension. And yes drumming is excelent - I really love this style in drumming. Punchy, dynamic, energic, inventive....

[Qcn0xa]

@JLnimrood Same thing here.. I didn't hear it when i listened with my speakers, but when i plugged my SteelSeries Siberia V2 in and listened to it, the BOOM just blew my mind holy shit..

[JLnimrood]

Just curious. 8 dislikes. For what? Sound quality? I bet not. Vid itself? Dont think so. Drumming? No way! I really wanna know

[Bselunchbox]

Beautiful and brutal at the same time

[Bselunchbox]

Dude from one drummer to another that's some fucking talent and the songs you guys write are very openminded and

[Qcn0xa]

Vittu tää oli kova!! Kiitokset Artificial Heartin Matiakselle ku tutustutti mut teijän bändiin! :)

[LukeHollandDrums]

damn this is really sick.

[Dravn1349]

sorry i have to dislike this one because it's just TOO GOOD FOR YOUTUBE!!

[TheTommi666]

this is just amazing dude you are fu*king awesome!!!!!!

[DistortedBrain]

That was an amazing video. 7 people play rockband drums.

[oCyfiuso]

lol ego perspective awesome! i love COC

[kemo237]

[jethro013]

i just noticed the drum rythm from 0:49 is the same as 0:20 hahahah that bass drop got me cinfused xD

[aldwynsdaughter]

Damn! Awesome :D

[undergroundfreakout]

2:35 : EPIC BREAKDOWN !!!

[thevaliantaisle]

you deserve a nicer kit.

[littlecodyhead]

Dude, the fucking transition at 1:26 is fucking unreal, ive never seen anything like that .

[thevaliantaisle]

what the hell do u have rigged up at 2:37 it sounds like ur just hitting a rubber block

[ArtFormTV]

@thevaliantaisle its a trigger bro. it triggers an electronic drum sound

[thevaliantaisle]

@ArtFormTV sry i should have been more specific with my question. i dont hear anything being triggered. xD

[ArtFormTV]

@thevaliantaisle oh ok i thought you were talking about the bass boost from that pedal he uses to trigger it

[TheTylerCreations]

Your Are My Inspiration

For

My Drumming

For

My Art

Stay True To What You Do

[wman0]

this version of pendulum swing is better haha.. were can i get this?

[Lustl]

I are great, man! Good work!

[epicprogressive]

omg i would kill to have ur drumming style i get lost in your excellent double bass work!!! when you guys come back to los angeles please give me a lesson hahah!!!

[geero89]

that peddle at 2:37 made me shit myself!

[geero89]

very intricate I dig this!

[gilldog18]

i worked behind your sister

[XzyconX]

I think i just shit myself..im too scared to look.

[pavulon666]

Dear Mr Kaukonen, each time I am watching this video, my jaw gets dropped down to floor. If my sorry ass i ever executed, I want You to do the snarework for me. Please, post some more videos soon. Cheers:)

[zac91earthlink]

gotta ask what the pedal at 2:37 is hitting to make the huge bass drop

[Feuerwaffen]

@zac91earthlink The tom

[zac91earthlink]

gotta ask what the pedal at 2:37 is hitting

[Hatchet130]

you have a very rare style that i've never really seen before. keep up what your doing. its fucking beautiful lol

[dylasauruswrecks]

all my friends think COC sounds generic, but i cant think of a more original metal drummer. maybe travis orbin, but jp has such a... caveman technique haha. but he makes it work. changes it up often, lots of bells and splashes, and toms sound great in all his stuff. nice one jp

ps, really enjoyed 1:25 ego perspective with the metronome, an entire drum video like that would be awesome

[xxxYugooxxx]

His china is perfect

[wudhup]

i watch alot of drum videos and this is by far the coolest

[metalcorehunter]

are you the drummer for this band?

[dylasauruswrecks]

@metalcorehunter yeah he is

[scgcdmluvr]

i hardly ever say this...

perfect. 100% perfect.

loved the video!

keep it up

\m/

~K

[ResurrectTheFlesh]

yeah ego perspective

[meganfoxlover1]

sabian HHX groove hats right ? :)

[kylethebassist]

Im addicted to the replay button.

[creeepyoldguy]

Suomi perkele!

[elderlyman83]

i rarely comment. U have a amazingly rare style of drumming that would put the best of the best to shame and i can tell your passionate about your music and videos. Thanks for the entertainment and inspiration! O and please make another video as sick as this one soon

[Cob666kill]

This is crazy, i just started listening you your band, my friend told me about you and it blew my mind. Your music is crazy and it makes me want to write more complex stuff. I just started drumming in a band i'm in and this deffinately will help me a lot. My bigger band i'm in i play guitar and still you guys help out a lot when i'm trying to write stuff. Thank you so much, and keep up the awesome work love it.

[pizzaROX]

oh you fancy huh?

[Buchy1369]

wait THAT EXTRA PEDAL IS FOR BASS DROPS ?

[LethalBmOs]

jesus christ the bass drop pedal is so sick. such an amazing band

[Badmintonnerke]

sick dude:)

[MauryaChannel01]

Love when we saw your perspective, and hear the click, cheers brother from Mexico !!

[KlotziDotCom]

I rarely comment on Youtube Videos, but I just have to after watching this video. HOLY - FUCKING - SHIT. That's all I have to say. Mad props!

[JayLeGee]

6 people just quit drums cuz you were THAT good.. great stuff man, looking forward for some more sick vidz like this one!

[StruckByACar]

Dude, what that extra bass pedal for at 2:36?

[iamfb]

@StruckByACar for that 808 bass you hear at that second. the loud boooooom

[TheChubakaHunter]

you are a very good drummer :D

come to austria, you are my teacher xD

[VitriolJason]

very smart e-pad behind the foot - never seen that before!

[creamer88]

this is like the best directed drummervideo i have ever seen... thats crazy shit dude!

[Indigo808]

holy fuck a monster playing drums awesome!!!!!

[Ultimus]

I'm impressed by the ferocity and emotion in your playing, most contemporary metal drummers look so dazed and mechanical during a performance. Your passion is definitely evident. Keep up the great work, looking forward to more!

[disfigured75]

Definitely one of my top 10 favorite (Modern day) drummers. Amazing skill you have man. Good luck

[kevinisakiller]

if he showed more of his feet he'd probably get a sponsorship from nike

[BennyVengeance888]

You are unbelievable!! Can i just ask what china you're using? And what size are your crashes?

[BrianAprilia]

the kit sounds better than sex!!!!!!! unreal stuff!!!

[metalkidmike666]

Can anyone tell me what those black pads are? i've seen them so many times and that really low bass drop sound they produce is epic in live situations, what are they?

[THETamaDrummer]

Is that a triggered bass drop at 2:38? ive never seen that before.

Great video and playing! keep it up and if your touring come to STL!

[karkarey]

Great video, great drumming, killer band!!

[JPkaukonen]

over 10000 views and 100 likes! thank you all for watching my video and thanx for the amazing comments. (: I appreciate this ALOT.

-JP

[RickSchreder]

Such amazing work, can't wait to hear more Circle of Contempt!

[xZakkxSlaughterx]

@JPkaukonen You're such an amazing drummer dude. It was an honor chilling with you and the rest of the band @ Diego from Volumes' house. Hopefully we can share the stage one day haha

[eyobg16]

you are an amazing drummer, and you deserve respect!!! Love Circle of Contempt, can't wait for the new album :D@JPkaukonen

[sENTINEL14atr]

@JPkaukonen I LOVE U! \m/ I WANT NEW ONE!

[whothefuckcaresbruh]

@JPkaukonen Dude your a fucking role model. I don't even have a drum set but I keep telling myself this progressive/technical shit far exceeds the skill level's of most generic genre type artists.

[mrpants16]

the editing (and playing) is too fuckin good

what do you use to edit your videos?

[roppec]

You should make a couple more of these.

Awesome to see you play.

[mcchuff]

Seriously, just make this the pendulum swing music video. You'd get an oscar for cinematography or something.

[dufus27]

What module do you use?

[1Destinationowhere1]

1:25 ahah ! The best transition I've ever seen !

[TheRcaa]

Erittäin Hienosti ja hyvää pauketta!

[BewilderedLemon]

Fuckin Awesome!!

[TheDeerFolk]

best. 

[hajlajfftw]

Yeez, this is one of the greatest drum videos i've ever seen. You are after this video one of my biggest role models. Fuck Matt Greiner.

[adrummerzhans]

@hajlajfftw

That's horrible man, where's the musicianship

[hajlajfftw]

@adrummerzhans Why is that horrible?

[mcchuff]

@adrummerzhans trololol

[goutymaygis]

beyond words brother!! dont keep us in the dark anymore... get more vidss... and the fucking drummers eye view cam was the cats ass.. id pay to see a video of just that.

[nater2008er]

that's a sic reverse pedal configuration on the right side!!! now that's innovative!!!

[sm4ky]

yeah the first person thing was pretty sick, you could even hear the metronome. freaking genius idea man

[EnCo202]

WOW! Ur awesome man!

[dandecay6]

awesome video and drumming man

[mcchuff]

Woah...It says a lot about a bands work ethic and their general personality when a member of the band goes to such lengths to make a demo video as amazing as this. The camera work in this is absolutely seamless and so original! I don't even need to say anything about the calibre of the drumming/music. Seriously, 10/10.

[KyleSmithR]

Amazing! Absolutely love the first person view! Also what china is that?

[NocturnalDrum]

One THE BEST drums vids out there....man when the melodic chorus part w/ the samples came in it gave me the chills.

[ozztones]

Wonderful job bro.i wish i could see you in a gig.

you are my most favorited drummer ever.i hope with COC you can come to Turkey.

[HaraldBoije]

you are ,without a doubt, one of the greatest drummers I've ever heard.

By the way, the part at the end (2:00) sounded much better in this version.

[timbarooski]

woah whats that third pedal behind your leg do?

[LarikkoTV]

Great song, Great Band, Great drummer! Deffo one of the coolest drumvids ive seen on youtube!

[Oblivion262]

i want versions of the songs with the remixed singing and cool synth stuff too, it would be soo sick, because it sounds soo good

[Oblivion262]

@Oblivion262 this is my favorite song on the whole album :)

[KivaDude]

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!­

[lordmarc0]

REALLY GOOD!!!! the drumming is great, and the camera / editing is amazing

[diluted23]

fuckin love it

[bojosoto]

other people have said it already but i must myself; this is by far the best drumming video on youtube! i am speechless man. your playing is amazing and all that effort with the camera stuff is incredible.

[pooki82]

tähän videoon ei vaan kyllästy. jätkä kyl osaa!

[ReeceRAWR]

i'm completely speechless.

[korac14]

holy shit. Technicality to it's limits. LOVE THAT SONG

[joebone848]

I totaly agree with UCABearBone. This is by far the greatest drum video ever made, period. Not to mention that your drum parts make no sense. You are rediculous man, one of my favorite drummers already, and this is the first ive heard from you. I gotta go get the album now. Great stuff man, keep it up.

[DemonX99]

Fucking sick dude.

[The666Darkness]

[whibbsy3232]

[AlphaDee]

More videos like this man :P

[badassdrummer699]

that sabian china sounds like a wuhan haha

[epiphoneylp]

Deathcore on kyllä taitolaji :)

[onthemaper]

u are the master!!!

[badassdrummer699]

Wow, right at 1:25 is fucking sick

[marcussmith680]

Dude you are great! It is guys like you that inspire me to play and to practice to improve my talent every day. Thank you for the great music!

[NickIsAPlagueOfGod]

Dude What China You Rockin?

[soldaditomx]

this is beyond perfection dude

[NoiseMaker231]

Stop doing stupid covers and leave it to the real members of the band!!!!!!!!!!! :)

[16nick1990]

For me this is the best drumming video on youtube i watch it every day before i go jamming thx alot for that next time you are in montreal i will come see you guys forsure :)

[LukeXftw]

The video is great and so is the arrangement of the song! but i wanna just watch you lol.

[JudeTehHyena]

Mies....aivan vitullista settiä. Nostan hattua ja rakennan sinulle temppelin

[adammod1991]

F*cking awesome. please post more drum videos lol

[nolliefIip]

I remember when I saw you guys back in November, first date of the California Love Tour in San Diego. I was right up front and was in awe to how fucking amazing you guys were. Immediately after your set, I bought a shirt from the merch table. I still have it, and I should've worn it to your show here a few weeks ago. Next time your here, I want you guys to sign it. It's all worn out from washing it, but I'm always going to keep it.

[th3m1ke]

You deserve the world not only for your talents, but for caring enough to shoot a video like this. The quality is amazing and creativity behind the angles blew my mind. As a musician I found the POV shot with the earplug/click track hysterical.

[h00k3d0nkr0niks]

the camera work is starting to piss me off. just put it on a stand and walk away. half the parts i was really hoping to see were too fuckin shaky. great drumming none the less.

[Ch1ckenKatsu]

2:05-2:35 makes me want to fucking cry. so fucking beautiful

[sareij]

This might be the best drumming video ive seen in my life. The playing is extremely sick but this camera work and effects is what make it stand out. I like how the camera is swinging back and forth and the first person shot you did was just crazy. Amazing job dude

[Ch1ckenKatsu]

fucking amazing! i saw you guys last night at san diego, you guys fucking owned the stage

[HeavyMetalen666]

I love your sis man, great videocamera talent!

[roppec]

drives me speechless, incredible. looking forward to seeing you guys live.

[SkoomaADDICT]

You are such an inspiration, not to mention the incredible camera angles.

[iGrantediRS]

this is insane !

[samthehero]

this gives metal drumming a whole new standard... absolutely insane dude. you should do some of the parts in Zerohour next!!!

[metalforever1990]

dude, where did you learn to drum,

btw,,,

start directing a music video or shit, the camera angles and editing are just superb..

not only did i enjoy the amazing talent, but the video kept me watching, not just clicking the video and going to do other shit,,really awesome!

[XSCreno]

is the best

[jerradcwilliams]

I absolutely love your snare sound and kick drum sound. btw are you finnish?

[BlackFlagParade]

Fucking choice man, excellent drumming. I'm with 6crimson6, do Nothing Imminent!

[Drangsland]

WOW!

that pedal to hit a bass drop was SMART!

you really give creativity new standards!

[pooki82]

mahtava video, toiset vaan osaa...

[nwilliam39]

the first person view with the metronome clicks!!! so sweet

[canceltheactive]

i must say man, this is probably the most interesting and awesome drumming video i've seen so far and it's ofcourse a plus that i'm in love with C.O.C! awesome job JP! really great to see a drum video from you at last :)

[HeavyMetalen666]

Fuck me sideways and grind my nuts, this is some excellent fucking shit!

[6crimson6]

Whoaa!! Great video.. Great sound..

AWSOME!!!! Please do Nothing Imminent too!!

[A1ex1sBB]

Alright, that was one of the best i'v seen !! amazing video ! Loved the part when we are "inside" the drummer haha ! Excellent

[AlphaDee]

Favoritteihin meni välittömästi, no question about it.

[DirectorNabeshin]

Can't wait to see you guys in Tulsa OK. I'll be the dude up front, going apeshit, and headbanging to your songs. See you there!

[sk8nmetalpsycho]

this isnt only great drumming.the video is amazing too!

[Rusti84]

omg that pad charleston-like sounds horrible stop hitting it! :D

The rest of the video and drumming is nice :)

[DooGie17]

PERKELE. you're the fucking shit voi vittu impressive fucking video :O

[Invocati]

Oh yeah and by the way love the version of the song :)
