I love watching your videos! I'm also a long time drummer and you seem to have almost the same taste in music as I do. It's awesome how you go from covering Slipknot to covering Queensryche and you nail it every time! Great job man, best of luck in playing and thanks for the kick ass videos!

[geejae4]

This was totally unearthly.

AWESOME talent. Great job. Loved the lighting, too.

[chokonacock]

Hey Scott, out f%&king standing man! One of my favorite QR songs. First thing that came to mind watching this was this guy is way too talented to just be playing covers in his home, then I noticed your band and personal profile, so you are out there doing your own thing as well. Glad to see that , man. You got what it takes. Live your f&%king dreams my friend! Next time BMB comes to LA I will definately check it out! Rock on man!

[baracuda72]

I thought you were Spot on dude. It was neat to watch and cool to hear the drums accenuated in the song... it's a really good song to show off your talent.

[TrentM1990]

fucking awesome , right on man

[evermetal2]

Man I don't know if you are really playing or it's an illusion! you are fucking great and caused me severe headbanging!

[shockadelica]

You are so in tune,good job! A living metronome....

[aetherkeule]

not bad but u play the beginning wrong till 1:10

[AnttilaPK]

I quote: "On the intro, Scott Rockenfield plays it with his hi-hat & ride. My version is NOT note-per-note."

He plays it his way

[drewperry1993]

@aetherkeule he doesnt cover it exactly h plays it and makes it sound better so stfu hater

[ThePearlearl666]

indeed the first part play with ride and hihat .... not bad

[Enigma27107]

He is good. Damn good.

[julesandrews]

WOW! this guy is great! Scott Rockenfield would love it...u in Melb? we should start a band (female singer though!!)

[chocolatethunderpua]

Solid

[BELVIS2008]

AWESOMEEE! DUDE

[StentorMetal]

Greeeeeeat.

[emilybeff99]

U FUCKIN ROCK U GET A SUB

[forbidinjustice]

Every cymbal crash and snare hit ON POINT!!! I greatly enjoyed watching it. Geoff Tate and his crew would be proud. Roland TD-20?

[GWAILIN]

Pretty great job dude, but the intro after the guitar kicks in and outro have two-handed 16ths between the ride and hi-hat, no? Adds a little bit more texture in my humble opinion.

Cheers.

[danifilth3]

Yes, you're correct. I also missed that !

[coalminergroupie]

I cannot.. stop... watching... this...

[Dubovscanin]

You rock dude!!!

[Paloozaz]

nice job bro! enjoyed watching it.

[DaveInOCNJ]

Really nice work.  Did justice to the original drumming without making it a completely different song.

Operation: Mindcrime

Best. Album. Ever.

[wardarrell]

my new fav bro lol kick ass!!

[drhavok]

awesome man....

[Drumbrat77]

Queensryche is my favorite band and Scott would be proud man. This is a fun song to play. awsome job

[eddievanhalenndslash]

i check out black metal box im a fan!!

[Jsimp0487]

Good job!

love the covers!

[eddievanhalenndslash]

fking hell i looked at all ur vids (well most) fking hell i wish i could drum like tht the 2 hardest things i can do on my drum kit is 'you could be mine' and 'enter sandman'

[ExtravagantNoodle]

hey man, this is spot on. care to post screaming in digital?

[NikiForTheMasses]

"machine gun" such a succesful nick name ,you sound exactly like it!

[itslulznotlolz]

okay, this one video made me subscribe. Great job.

[Icewindal]

Cant believe this.

Awesome

:)

[f4elarry]

Awesome job machinegunsmith

[BumpNrun69]

Very Nice, way to stay in the "pocket", something that is very challenging to do when playing Queensryche, way to go!

[Manning713]

NICE JOB !!

[master0fthemoon]

Nice one man! Love this song.

[susanma70]

Tear it up!! This is one of my ALL TIME fav's besides Jet City Woman. You are a GOD ferr surr!!

Love u Scott!! And nice rebuttal!!

BMB \m/(",)\m/

[smartgut40]

awsome dude where are you from?

[rvswafford]

i've been drumming over 20 yrs. scott r. and the professor mr. neil peart himself are my idols. ignore drumgpearl. prob. a fag.bet he cant do what either of us can. id like him to post himself playing didacts and narpets. you will do though. decent style, some flash, keep rockin home boy! woo hooo!!!! \m/

[7thkatana]

Hey, I don't know what is wrong with the internet. Some people just seem to use it as carte blanche license to insult good people. Make sure you disregard negative comments. I loved that video dude. Love your work. I wish you were playing in my band. Rock On John

[drumgpearl]

Way to completely butcher a "classic" tune. Your on the ide during the chorus when you are suppose to be on the hats, your over playing all the kick drums parts, the begining of the song your doubling up on the ride when its suppose to be single, your throwing fills in all over the place that are not suppose to be there AND your very sloppy with it to boot!

[MachineGunSmith]

Cool! Please show me how's it's done Mr. Drumgpearl.

[love4talent]

He can't...he's too busy sitting here criticizing to be productive musician!

[TrevorP1969]

you sound like you know shite,it's pad perfect to me, I wouldnt even say machine gun smith plays this diferent to the original

[TOOLDRUMMER110]

machinegun plays it his way and it sounds just as great. drumgpearl sits behinds a computer & gives his sloppy opinion because that's all he can do. drumgpearl has no drum videos to back up his want-a-be drumming skills...So sad.

[love4talent]

Yeah! I don't understand people who criticize an excellent drummer who has no videos themselves. I can see giving constructive criticism, but that would be coming from MGS!

Who wants to play someones music to a T? Then you would say he's not original and just coping music... I thought it sounded pretty damn awesome myself! Keep it up man! Thanks for sharing the awesome talent!

\m/ (o.O) \m/

[buckykattwswfr]

drumgpearl, did you even read the description? It CLEARLY says, "My version is NOT note-per-note." So stop whining about MachineGun's playing, because he plays WAY better than you ever will.

[serdar213]

@drumgpearl I think he has no intention for doing the same in the original track.He is doing his own approach.

[serdar213]

[thebarkermc]

You're very talented, I know this video is very old now, but if you're still with Black Metal Box, they're lucky to have you, keep it up.

[ACjunkyard]

Great job! now play some SAVATAGE!!!!!

[easy1045]

Sweet symbols dude. What kind?

[kissgod1]

wow O.O awsome...... 5:12 love it!

[bugsysha]

Great :)

[axllovesslash]

thats the closest snare ive heard to the reverb on scotts operation mindcrime

[lech123456]

Very nice, mate, I admit - I'm not a drummer, but I feel your playing is very natural, like you don't even try hard but simply sit there and have fun. Pretty much like mr. Rockenfield :>

Cheers!

[Queens9999]

The drum fills at the end of the song are probably the best I've ever heard to finishi a song.

[bennyfromboner]

Fukkin awesome dude ..perfection ......Ever thought of becoming a drummer lol lol

[tottomann2008]

you`re right man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spirkl3]

omg.nice work!!!!!!!!!!!

[eighthof8]

Fantastic!! This Queenryche song was and is one of my favorites!!

[robinater]

Smokin MAn!

[megadethdave]

yessss this band toooo god man great band after another you are the shit you and the drummer from mastidon

[vsvigilante]

Where is your band based out of? Would love to see you guys live.

[zibbaen]

This song is simply awesome. Found the drumming to be a little too "active" for the song, but you're very talented. 5/5

[guitarmanjamn]

Damn good! Man! from 1 Ryche Fan Too another Feak'n great Dude! guitarman janm is my name.

[jesse070988]

Pretty fucking cool dude.

[tybo09]

"On the intro, Scott Rockenfield plays it with his hi-hat & ride. My version is NOT note-per-note. "

Rockenfield plays EVERYTHING with his hi-hat. Seriously, I think you could take away everything on the kit but the hi-hat and he'd still rock it out. I never really thought of hi-hat as anything more than a way to keep time until I discovered Queensryche about 5 years after their peak (I lived a sheltered life, what can I say?)

[STAMmk3]

Man , you're great....!!

Queensryche 4 EVER.....

[TeslaXy]

Great, simply great. Drumming at its best. Thank you.

Queensryche was one of my favorite bands. 'Operation mindcrime' is timeless album.

[TheDaddyBarNone]

No disgrace to QR mate!

[stonebryson]

Excellent work, man...

[cherkas009]

great, do you do rush at all?

[UdoShan]

Scott Rockenfield would be proud!

[bambamh20]

awesome great job WICKED !

[yupster123]

the vocals for this song sounds SO familiar! who sings it?

[PR1M3VAL]

Great work, dude!

[HergerSeamas]

wow! one of my favorite songs too! Very professional!

[Guitarwannabee]

Awesome man, I would like to see you do some Metal Church & Fates warning.....GW

[JohnLomax1982]

Dude, you're so f*n great! Keep on going! This is one of my favourite songs.

[psychicsagi]

That kit is electric? I never noticed but the cymbals do look all dark. "Roland" is it? Great video I watch this like once a week and try to play a tiny bit of it.

[bevaneachy]

ur a machine, dude!!!

[WunderKid77]

Have to agree here - played the crap out of that!! Outstanding! Mindcrime, in my humble opinion is one of the greatest albums ever made and you certainly did it justice.

MG21870 is right - I would love to see some D.T.!! Keep them coming!!!

[stelnor]

Very cool song choice man. Operation Mindcrime is a freakin masterpiece. Definitely one of my inspirations as a drummer and songwriter. Just curious, are you using stock drum sounds on what I'm guessing is a Roland kit, or are you using an aftermarket drum program? They sound amazing for e-drums.

[dzek777]

Ownageee ! :)

[DPguitars45]

Holy shit, you are dead on....wanna start a band??? i play most of their songs perfect on guitar??

[Jayster1212]

Dude, you are frickin Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fretburner94]

dude im speechless

[ericpoulsen9121967]

awesome dude!!!

[darkplaces1]

You got stuck at 1:30 :)

You are one talented mofo. Fantastic drummer. You remind me of a cross between Mikkey Dee and Steve Zimmerman (of the 4 or so videos I have seen of you.)

[KittieDanger]

I honestly like your version alot better on the drums! Awesome! You really do have a gift.

[gustransman]

just fantastic drumming -cool -and heavey -and the greatest thing to see someone play like you do -my compliments -man you are a star !

[MG21870]

Damn bro, awesome, just plain AWESOME!!! How about Dream Theatre?? I bet you can play the hell out of D.T. Keep up the great work!

[TheTrooperRage4Order]

You da man. Nice performance on the drums. Keep up the good work! I am going to look at some of your other work.

[ozisansan]

great!!!!!!!!!

[ca805to]

awesome! u kick ass

[acereroycementero]

Very good, next time please do Trial of Tears by Dream Theater

[DrummerJoe269]

Glad to see you go right after the more off time intricate drummers out there. Queensryche, Slipknot, Maiden, Good shit Scott keep it up!

[ShelbyWeather]

excellent flashback to when rock was rock! Thanks guy..I've linked it to my facebook, just incredible drumming to an incredible song. He does it justice, for sure!

[Awaitsubasa]

I'm going to be as good as you some day.

I hope ^^

[vairocks2006]

great job man

[ironmdn35]

if your not signed in a band your a fool. I know the guys and have set in during practices while writing this album. DUDE damn near note and beat for note and beat, I thought scott was playin first couple times I saw it, and I find myself coming back and watch you play this over and over. YOU ARE TRULY GREAT and a ton of hard work in those vids

[burnoutx1985]

i watch this video daily...your fucking awesome dude :)

[anna08birgitta]

Awesome sound. Absolutely fucking brilliant. I envy your music tallent.

[mystngt1966]

someone tell me what this song is about please !

[phillbagg]

It's part of a concept album, look up the album story. "Operation: Mindcrime"

[lforet]

Operation mindcrime is a story about someone who was "Programed" to kill when triggered through a phone call. I highly recommend it!

[ibanez200109]

is this you? if it you are a freaken beast at drums

[burnoutx1985]

do you have this for download like an mp3 or something i love the drums in this version

[apm54]

nice drumming

[hamsammich69]

O H ! H O L Y !! beat them skins!!

[burnoutx1985]

love this video and your a very good drummer!

[nstygatr]

Great playing man!

[Tonydee640]

Man, I just love your style.. Here is a guy who pours his soul into the skins. BTW, you make those Rolands sound awesome!

[prerunnermaniac]

Damn that was great!!! Too band music today does not have music like that anymore.

[surgedfactor]

You are absolutely amazing on drums. Rock on!

[genoanthonyhart]

THANKS MAN...I NEEDED THAT.

[archangel22xx]

Mindcrime is a great album. I've been listening to it since it came out back in '89 or so... anything you can listen to front to back without any weaknesses is worth the 15 bucks in my opinion.

An underrated band that probably has a huge cult following... it's one of the greatest ever.

Bands like this don't get their props and SClub, Brittney and Miley makes millions...

crazy ass world we live in.

FYI great drumming dude.

[farmboy504]

a fucking mazing.

[MachineGunSmith]

Thanks!!! ~ Rock ON!!!
