  • I guess when I see cover videos I expect perfection.

  • I'm loving that china cymbal on the right. What is it?

  • Is it my problem . .

    some lay back feel :)

  • Awesome job, dude! Congrats! Who cares about school when you play the drums like this? Hahaha.

  • Needs moar cymbal.

  • @jordangreen93 ah well unfortunately i only use half of those cymbals now! :P

  • @jordangreen93

    moar? YOU WANT MOAR?!

  • @jordangreen93 more cowbell!

  • Well done dude.

    Is that your prac. space? Tell me it's not at your house or I will be sooooooooo jealous! Ha ha. Ignore the sledges. Constructive criticism is fine - I'm sure it may even be one of the reaasons ppl post footage of themselves. Good Luck with your future drumming dreams dude.

  • This is a great song and band to cover because instead of just trying to show off, you actually UNDERSTAND the music. I think that is the most important part of Karnivool's music is to feel it. And one of the best ways is through drums. So even though I hate most covers of anything simply because it leads to copying instead of creating, good job. As for these picky bastards, they are just jealous because you picked an intense drum song to play, and played it probably close to perfect.

  • @AweAttack Oh man, I wish I took that back. I just saw your username. I guess it is possible to fake feeling the music. Get a new name man, it doesn't suit you or your surprisingly optimistic and heartbreaking comments on people's harsh words.

  • @AweAttack Hey man I appreciate the comment heaps. Sorry about the username, i made that name when i was 12, and yes I do regret it :P. I definitely don't think of myself as a 'drumpro', haha and I suppose I was a little immature when i first made my youtube account 5-6 years ago :P I actually don't know how to change my username? Does that mean I have to create a new account? Because that would be rather inconvenient!

  • hey man, loving these covers, your drumming is awesome as is your taste in music, keep it up

  • tighten your snare please :)

  • Join a band with me now man!

    Talent :)

  • non-drummer here. Was just wondering what the pedal next to your bass drum pedal was for. Also, I think the camera angle is great, and I think the drums sound fine, but as I said, non-drummer. Keep em' coming man, I love your videos!

  • interesting kit setup... looks like your kick is afraid of the snare :D

    nice playing though, love this song

  • Nice

  • Good cover, just have to watch the dynamics a little bit and a couple of times Steve throws in some Snare+bass on the same beat! bar that a very respectful cover.

  • awesome job...

    wait a minute,,,,,

    oh yeap...still awesome job.

  • Dude!! Nice cover, coming from a fellow drummer, Karnivool is no easy band to cover!! Keep it up buddy!!

  • Fucking awesome cover man.

  • Respond to this video... characters remaining

    Cancel orPost Attach a video Yo dude, im a guitarist not a drummer, maybe a little, i can keep a beat, i would love to put in a request, Porcupine Tree - Oceans Twisted, mainly the outro i am keen on, i would just really really like to see how the fuck it is played, it does my head in trying to picture it being played. I reckon it has the same feel as goliath to some degree, anyway.... Nice tight as fuck drumming :)

  • i love this cover and tight drumming there mate.. please cover umbra!! :))

  • Brilliant, well done, mate!

  • I don't know what the others are saying but I think that your sound is pretty good.

    Definitely better than most cover uploads.

    Well played also :)

  • too bad you don't live in Rio de Janeiro!!!

  • pretty simple cover try goliath mars volta

  • @twig123 thanks mate, yeah i did do a take of that, wasn't happy with the sound though - I'm going to do it again soon. Great song that one!

  • Yo dude, im a guitarist not a drummer, maybe a little, i can keep a beat, i would love to put in a request, Porcupine Tree - Oceans Twisted, mainly the outro i am keen on, i would just really really like to see how the fuck it is played, it does my head in trying to picture it being played. I reckon it has the same feel as goliath to some degree, anyway.... Nice tight as fuck drumming :)

  • @twig123 i agree try the mars volta cover Thomas Pridgens's drumming will blow your fucking head off!! Your kick sounds great

  • Sounds Awesome 

  • keep it up bro thats good shit... ur snare sounds a bit loose tho... is that ur mix or do u like it like that?

  • hey dude, fucking love karnivool, especially steve judd's drumming, i'm really impressed with how well you covered this song, it is one of my favourite songs to play on the drums. you did the song justice man, The only one thing i'd say is for this song, it lends itself to a nice crack of a snare, and you have a deep power snare going on here. it's a nice snare sound but if you get what i mean, that's the only thing i think. but yeah dude, sick video, and good luck

  • @yourmumhasballs thanks for stopping by man, I appreciate the comment :) looking back on it now, I totally agree - when I tune my snare these days I just tune it really tight as you said to a nice crack, really suits Simple Boy and The Caudal Lure too

  • @yourmumhasballs im agree with you... the only thing that's missing in this cover is the snare sound! but amazing cover dude!

  • Kit sounds good thru my headphones nice a deep. Thoroughly good cover just discovered this band. Keep up the great work

  • I think the Kit sounds great dude, and the Camera angle is okay. I mean, it's hard to find a good angle to film drums, but apart from only being able to see half the snare, you can see everything you're doing.

    Good Job Man.

  • @SKSM117 - Dude, you are sad human being. It's blatanty obvious to everyone you're an overweight depressed smelly disgusting excuse for a man, who watches his days pass by entertained by xbox and porn. Get off your ass and try play this song a tenth as well as DrumBum mate. That's if you can get off your sweat stained couch with your lard legs. Stop giving people shit and take a look in the mirror you self loathing drain on society.

  • Your kit sounds pretty terrible and the camera angle is fucking shit. But apart from that it was pretty well done.

  • @SKSM117 sorry mate, ill try fix those things for you next time i do a vid

  • @Drumpro712 Don't listen to him, man, it sounds really nice. I would kill to have a setup as elaborate as yours.

  • @SKSM117 his kit doesn't sound terrible at all..

  • Clean, confident cover! A few miffs, but nothing to lose sleep over. Excellent job.

    Are you in a band?

  • @SKSM117 jeez you come across as a dickhead when you say it like that mate

  • Is that a pearl demon drive high hat stand???

  • whats the extra pedal next to your right foot for?

  • @DrumBum561 Hey, thats hooked up to a cowbell

  • Is it just me or are you sitting in front of the kit the wrong way? u have ur bass drum to the side of you, whereas it should be right in front of you. But hey, I guess its a matter of taste.

  • @Tinkytanky nah i agree with you man, and lately i've been experimenting with my setup and i've fixed that - just the result of bad habit i guess :P

  • Sure!

    Personally i prefer getting it as close as possible when the song is technically dificult and then add my own stuff to make it more personal.

    I mean, i play the tracks to learn exactly What they are doing and then take that knowledge to mix it up further down the road.

    If you like goliath you should look into meshuggahs spasm or stengah!

    \m/

  • Not to be a wise ass, but you're playing lots of stuff that's not in the song and you're not playing alot of the stuff actually in there.

    Sure your drumming is pretty solid but you're playing the same fill over and over again. I suggest you listen to the different fills again to get it right.

    Great song by the way!

  • @Mart33Nat0r hey man, il definitely look out for the repetitive filling ay thanks for pointing that out. i don't actually like copying out the whole piece though - i used to do that a lot - but i prefer to play with my own style adapted to the song, if that makes sense? thanks, yeah awesome song!

  • @Drumpro712 that's great and all but I too would rather see someone play the song how it's written.

  • @drummerbedford yeah fair enough man, well im doing a cover of Change soon - i'm going to try play everything as close as possible, but with a few additions of my own style (not compromising what's been played by steve, just adding other rhythms over the existing ones). Il let you know when that ones done :) thanks for watching

  • where abouts are you from?

  • @guitarlad24 hey man, sydney

  • @Drumpro712 oh sweet what part, i think a jam is in order 8-)

  • @guitarlad24 ha around hornsby, wbu?

  • @Drumpro712 out west, near richmond ;p

  • Ha. Finally got a room with some sound proofing, eh? No more neighbors complaining I take it? I was browsing through stuff from you and Dan and I saw you had done Goliath, I immediately went "Hell yes." *clickityclick* Keep it up, man. 3 years and you haven't had a flop video once. :D

  • Pretty sick dude Judd is awesome but you got it spot on!

  • man, yur kit sounds great!!!

  • Everythings good but the snare. Sounds like it could use some love.

    Otherwise known as a tune.

    Cheers.

  • Holy fuck, great job.

  • Any chance of covering the caudal lure?

    and what does the pedal to the right of your bass pedal do?

  • @TheJonnyj09 yeah man il do caudal lure once i finish my hsc, not far away now. ah that pedals hooked up to a cowbell

  • We can't really be sure about the ghost notes your 'not' playing, since ur like... right in front of it xD

  • Awesome! How long did it take to learn / memorize this? It's such a complex song you either have a great memory or you spent a long friggin time with this. lol

  • @BootBazaar thanks mate! ah i duno, i find it hard to answer these types of questions. Basically, by the time I want to play a song, I would have listened to it a billion times so I guess that would have an impact, but for this song i guess once you've got that main groove, the fills and everything else just flow. thanks again

  • Fantastic drumming, spot on and also important, great style. I can immediately see that you have the talent.

  • Comment removed

  • can i suggest that you tighten your snare drum skins? i know steves skins are pretty loose, but it'd give your kit a massive edge and it changes the sound of your whole kit.

    sounds awesome though!

  • @TheVilliersBand thanks mate! yeah ive been a bit lazy tuning my snare this time around, i bought a remo controlled sound but im not really happy with it, i had a powerstroke 3 just before, tuned it to this sweet high pitch but it broke in 2 weeks! any tips on tuning snares would be great im terrible at it :P

    thanks

  • @Drumpro712 I say keep the snare you have in this vid. It sounds awesome. A high pitched snare drum would ruin this song.

  • @Drumpro712 yeah mate here's what you do.

    1. put on the skins from scratch, then tighten up each lug simultaneously (on both sides, not just the batter side)

    2. once they're giving resistance when you're tightening, start by tightening each lug to as tight as it'll go before your hand falls off, repeat on both sides.

    3. play it in

    4. look at it again in a few days, your snare should have loosened off from when you last tightened it.

    5. keep doing that for about a week.

    6. happy days!

  • @TheVilliersBand thanks! il give that a try with my next skin, if i did it now it'd tear for sure :P

  • Awesome work man. I dare you to learn The Caudal Lure.

  • This is sick man! Youv improved heaps since your Shutterspeed cover. Well done man. Legend! Hopefully soon i can set my shit up to do some recordings like this. I messed to DLC - Big on my electric kit a few weeks ago haha. I uploaded it. nothing special becuase theres no sound from my kit, but you can see :P haha! Have a squiz.

  • fucking awesome man! cleared a couple of my doubts :P

  • some time issues, also the fill before "please wake up" is wayyy off.

  • hey dude i know you said you're finishing school and you have study etc, but soon as you're done and you get a chance can you do a cover of change? i can play it but have no way of recording drums :( so yeah. do change :D

  • @datswotimtknbout definitly man, I love jamming to it, just need to work out some parts when i have time, il let you know when its up :)

  • umm sorry i have to be harsh with these things.. this is shit man. obviously you can play the drums to an extent but you do not have the grace and rhythm required to play anything by karnivool. and on the 'please wake up' heavy outro, what ur doin on the kick is completely wrong which i found strange coz its so obvious. all the extra fills in there were unneccessary also. keep trying.

  • @jigsaw3429 true

  • "though Sony is pretty keen to start a band with me around the start of next year i think." What does that mean?

  • @jimmah01 ah its a project they want to have a crack at, basically starting a band with different young musos, me on drums so far

  • @Drumpro712 Interesting.. How'd they find you?

  • @jimmah01 youtube ha

  • I especially like drew's drumming there is more attack and anger into his drumming and more constructive beats that are cool

  • PHUCK YES! I see 'Vool this weekend!

  • not bad at all kid,

    if you don't mind some constructive criticism, I think you need to find a bit more groove rather than trying to clinically nail everything if you know what I mean...

    but awesome stuff, are you in a band?

  • @JTbassist09 thanks man, yeah thats definitly something i wana work on as soon as i finish school. I actually started learning some linear drumming today, its cool stuff. im not really in a band at the moment, just jamming with people - though Sony is pretty keen to start a band with me around the start of next year i think. thanks for watching!

  • Nice dude, I learn from you.

  • awesome....well done dude... absoutely loved it.

  • sickk gj

  • good stuff man.

  • Great cover!

  • Awesome shit my man, keep up the good work.

  • Yeah that was really really good. And HD quality.

    If you could do The Caudal Lure or Umbra. That would be awesome.

  • goliath's my favourite off sound awake to jam too, closely followed by set fire to the hive.

    question though: is this at your house? where do you go to record?

  • @ProMarkChris yeah this is at my house, in a spare room - we boarded up the window with these thick doors we found at my dad's work and then made some frames arond the room and stuck acoustic material on them. hope that helps

  • @Drumpro712

    I hope you understand that you can't effectively reduce the acoustic & mechanical transmission of sound simply by applying acoustic treatment. The materials you have applied there merely absorb and diffuse sound at certain frequencies, they won't provide any real form of sound proofing unless the room that you have built shares no rigid physical connection with the residing rooms.

    Just a tip.

  • @boecke91 yeah, it does escape into the rest of the house but we are working on reducing that, but we found some blast doors at my dad's work lying around so we boarded them over the window with acoustic seal tape which tends to block sound from going outside pretty effectively. thanks

  • @ProMarkChris yeah this is at my house, in a spare room - we boarded up the window with these thick doors we found at my dad's work and then made some frames arond the room and stuck acoustic material on them. hope that helps

  • Very nicely done man. I noticed you got yourself a new crash! Very nice. When I finally have my kit set up again I'm gonna give a stack of karnivool a go

  • hehehe, when you get the haircut? I like the new view. I think I might cover this. Like properly. But first, Big. One at a time you know? haha! Nice cover bro.

    P.S. You looked a bit red from exhaustion. Those MV tunes will farckin screw you don't they?

  • @tle123rox yeah my arms were falling off too lol

  • Really liked your take on the song, great cover man :D

  • Glad to hear ur almost done with school. Keep up the drumming afterwards. Man ur good killed it great cover.

  • nice! Haven't seen you put up a cover in awhile, but i understand school comes first! You've really improved even though you haven't had much practice! Keep it up dude, plus you remined me about Karnivool! Thanks!

  • That was fuckin' sick. Keep it up man. And don't worry, only around 5 more months of school. HSC I'm guessin'? Good luck man.

  • @stfanani yeah HSC, so much work. I'll post my drum performances soon, I'll have them prepared in at least a few weeks. thanks!

  • Good cover, mate! KEep it up. I'm waiting on Caudal :P
