Outworld's "The Never" www.aliendrums.com

[Kabraksis]

It's so sad there's no Outworld any more...

[xntrickk]

the vocals are killer on this tune...

[drums4lifepeart]

Great job man! Where did this drum kit go? Haha see ya next saturdayyy

[toyotadrummer]

Sick vid, don't like the singer and u don't really need a foot cam. U definatly have alot of talent though.

[rocker100991]

the singer sucks sry lol and it seems like a rip off of dream theater other than that it's fine

[draakenvuur]

exellent band man!!!

[hardcorehuerta]

awsome msuic........shit singer.........

[VitilioAA]

nice hair man,

[gerby1818]

ray , you need to tell me when your back in washington man i miss ya dude

eric

[brendanvdrums]

hey mate, which hi hats are you using there?

[thecouchonfire]

the riffs in this song are so tasty

[ThrashGuru666]

Solid.

[animenerd12]

I bet you just HATE Dream Theater. ;) (sarcasmmmm)

[blackmetalzbomb]

This really does not display his talent at all. I know this because I follow him and A TRAGEDY LOST around to pretty much all of their shows. Check them out and you will here some serious drumming.

Horns and Hails

-blake

[amaltoadie]

I just realized I have the exact same setup as him minus the splashes (since I'm poor xD)

[RandomTask42]

i know it sucks being poor. lmao same goes for me.

[Burkefolk]

are they going somewhere?

[immetalaaron]

Matt is my good friend. The talent this guy posesses can be felt by just being around him. He is very skilled. To me, this video does not display all of his abilities. It in fact does show his ability to provide a good song with what it needs, solidity and a little bit of spice. You want a lesson on blast beats? All rudiments? Jazz? Go see Matt, he will hook you the fuck up!

HORNS TO YOU MATT!

-Aaron

Looking forward to tour!

[Metonium]

By looks of your profile comments I think your full of shit.

[gdawg12123]

god u idiot he does have double floor toms,1 on both sides

[moonluna15]

Lmao, that's a snare. xD

And by the looks of it, a piccolo snare.

[doniunhealthy]

daora man!!!!!! sucesso !!!!!!!!!!!!

[ibanezdudeck]

I can tell he likes cymbals more than toms; ) He's got 2 tiny mount toms and about 10 cymbals. usually when someone has a set that big they have double floor toms, 4 mount toms.

[gerby1818]

haha lol its funny i grew up with matt but we all called him ray because his dads name was matt also . you rock ray come home soon buddy

[ciudadneo]

yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....

[LaChoyGangsta]

Matt is my drum teacher (no joke)------> this song is amazing!!!!!

[jaffahx]

yeah same here

[AnIMaDrako]

i like the Band just like it is now ;) dont need change nothing also have some prog but is more heavy than pro so i dont thing for a new keybourdplayer ;)

[portnoyrocks22]

Yeah!!!! ***** different but rocks!

[dragonforce005]

Man, cool it reminds me of Nevermore!! this rocks!!

[chethedrummer]

I wonder about the stuff at 2:28 to 2:32, you can actually hear the bell of a ride cymbal, but he's hitting his 2nd hihat, isn't he?

Correct me if I'm wrong, cause the rest is absolutely fantastic, love this song.

[amaltoadie]

This video isn't the actual recording. It seems like it's really just him jamming to his own tune.

[amaltoadie]

I really wish Outworld didn't break up as they did.

[bhothemetallhead]

They broke up?! oh NO! i thought that only there singer left!

[amaltoadie]

Well, their singer and keyboardist left. They're pretty much inactive right now, as far as I know. They were huge elements of the band. They haven't completely "broken up", though.

[bhothemetallhead]

yeah no doubt that THIS singer is very important...he's amazing. I wonder why he left?

[BloodReverence]

This singer left for another band in 2006. They're other singer, Carlos Zema was in the band until now and left with the keyboardist.

[thrashmetalowns666]

yer rusty cooley was apparently planning for a new singer and instead of keyboardist he wanted a rhythm guitarist for a more heavier sound, i dont know how that will work but o well, he was ment to be doing some sort of solo project aswell but i dunno what hes up 2

[amaltoadie]

Even if they do get a new guitarist, I really hope they still try to get a new keyboardist. I really don't think you can have a real prog band without one.

[geeleageorge]

if the double bass was any faster the groove of the song would be gone and the song would be shitty

[patril0mic]

ya groove > speed

[Slaytallideth007]

Well, apparently sabrebaseball8 knows nothing of what good drumming really is. Just because the kicks are slow, doesn't mean it's not great. That's some of the cleanest drumming I've ever seen in my last 10 years as a musician. Fuckin amazing!

[sabrebaseball8]

the double bass isnt that great its kinda slow but overall its good

[thevengey]

Right, cos speed is everything and playing fast kicks is hard... eh sabrebaseball8? ^_^

[Smekarn0]

tight kicks!!! :D

[NMILLY74]

excelent men!!!!!!

[Chase0782]

i think he'd be pretty cool to hang out with lol along with all the members from outworld xD

and make like, an elite metal army with them and sonata artica, concerto moon, iron maiden,yngwie, micheal angelo batio etc. and 'metal fans' and just storm the streets with metal RAAAAAAAAAGGGGGEEEEEEE!! \m/ \m/

[ShredTim]

Yngwie would be at the back panting though, unless you carry him.

I'm just taking the piss :)

[coreyscommentthought]

yeah actually he is pretty cool to hang out with. i have a few times cause he is my best friends brothers friend

[Gdawg189]

hes my drum instructor

[bigDandtheSkaKid]

wow! that was ßRøø†AL!!

haha. just kidding.

i'm not a scene fag.

gawd i love prog drumming. it could be so much simpler,

but the complexity and the refined and smooth nature

(especially with people like this guy) of this type of drums is in my opinion what makes this sort of music worth

listening to.

unless it's dream theater. then it all makes it worth

listening to.

[JonnyGR04]

his kick technique is spot on!

[iammetalhead123]

hey do u know robert barnes

[YELLOWTOAD]

Looking forward to having a beer with you this fall. See you then Matt. Keep in touch!

-Toad

[Altered6Chicken]

He and Mike Portnoy should jam. Portnoy could show him alot more, even though he's very profficient at the drums.

[skatrumpetx]

Padiportnoy!

[skullmamom]

lol i know a guy that is best friends with this kids dad

[snaude00]

well I know him...so there! :)

[PragueMeddler]

Likewise! :D

[zildjianmatt]

Cool who is it?

[Vicrattledeth]

The chorus double kick pattern is hands down my favorite thing to play. the way you incorporated the bell of the ride with it is awesome and such a smooth transition. You're awesome

[nileaotw]

Nice video!

Keep up the good work.

[metallicadude456]

you guys are fucking awesome! please do a show in the UK, that would be an honour :D, and you're an awesome drummer too :D

[xxxViceroyxxx]

Boring song is boring.

[amaltoadie]

What pedals are you using in this? Did you already have the Axis pedals when you recorded this?

[helmfire]

Matt, I look up to you so much! God I wish I could drum like you. You and everyone in Outworld is amazing!

[processmonkey]

Amazing stuff Matt, Keep up the good work. \m/-_-\m/

[SnobRocket]

Dude Matt you are fucking amazing! Outworld is one of my favorite bands ever! You guys need to do a show in South Texas...that would be badass!

[Drummerman02]

[zildjianmatt]

18" Zildjian A Custom on the Right

[zildjianmatt]

[xelad1]

i think this guy is a much better singer than james labrie he also has a larger range, though for this song he seems to be going for the metal sounding vocals

[CrackyClo]

xxx

[MegaReece]

[ventsintheedge]

[MegaReece]

this is real music, carlos, rusty and you all in one band thats nuts, will be the best band ever. WAR CRY is awesome, i love city of the dead.

[Zeppe666]

sounds a bit like dream theater, especially the singers voice.

great drumming and music!

[bbbysnare]

how bout' Symphony X cause James LaBrie would put this guy to shame.

[fayntdrummer]

Good job on the drums...but the vocalist needs to be choked by big,strong,gorilla hands.

[xelad1]

what can I say except outworld rocks.

[MizIndependent]

you're awesome matt! :)

[Zemaout]

How easy is to play drums... oh my God! Let me play drums like this fucking guy! _\w/

[wbcsaint]

Awesome video matt. It is such a great song. This video totally has the Liquid Drum Theater feel to it or any of Mike Portnoy's drum DVDs for that matter. Great camera angles on the drums.

[infusion06]

Very Precise, you have style and an awesome kit!

[Cannibalbassist]

Awesome drumming for an awesome band Keep it metal dude!!!
