Cobus - Angels and Airwaves - Call to Arms (Drums Cover)

[JcnoProductions]

I remember watching this video when it first came out, it was my main inspiration for playing the drums.

[imrhnking]

Cobus: if i were still with my band, I'd hire you as a drummer, you got madskillz

[unknowngo123]

cobus is skinny here :P

[cinz101nessian]

thats was amazing love it.

[dwellingforjackals1]

Oh he has come so far...

[nortsoldier]

i always wondered when will he use the chimes....HEHEY

[TheHillDirector]

YOUNG COBUS!!!! AHHH SO GOOD

[Kripe98drums]

this Awesome video was posten on my birthday in 2008! :D

[stevorulzdaworld]

Do Sirenss!~

[PatriotsOWNU]

you should do a AVA- Soul Survivor cover <3

[Mayhemzz]

It's amazing how young he looks in this video.

[largecarpete]

Atom Willard would be proud of this.

[Isske95]

The shadow behind him isn't cathcing it up, Cobus's awesomeness is to much to take

[mrjeffneal]

im in love with the sound of that snare!!!!

[hibbohibbo]

bro i love you you flippin rock!

[raicheru]

nice very nice

[BABOS1974]

good job! Nice hi hat sticking brother!!!!!!!!!!

[24Beginnings]

to lieget to quit

[27pageboy]

Justin Beiber- God sent me to make music.

Cobus- No I didn't......

[zachary10111]

Mark tree for the win!

[HeLivesInAllOfUs1234]

is he left handed cause it looks like he always starts his drum rolls with his left hand

But then again he is just awesome

[bradycorcoran]

@HeLivesInAllOfUs1234 i start my fills and rolls with my left hand, but i'm right handed

[cheetah219]

@HeLivesInAllOfUs1234 he's grossly right handed lol but whenever he starts with his left hand it's probably to build strength but it's pretty obvious he's right hand. his strokes with his right hand are a lot sharper, confident

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@cheetah219 Oh ya he's a righter for sure, but that makes it more impressive, he's choosing to be both. He can likely choose his hair and eye color at will also. As well he controls earths orbit Im pretty sure......ya he's that awesome.

[paula280491]

OMG ^^

[Maco400]

4:00 i just got mine blown. i love you cobus.

[narnas57]

man i have to say..

that is the best cover i've seen man! ever! i'm sponsered and shit like that but you champ are great!!

[Spelie442]

hey man! Do you play with a drumless track or is this drummed over the original track? Really like your videos!

[Glennwoolrules]

You should do some stuff from LOVE, atoms drumming on that album is insane, id love to see your improv on some songs from that album

[SpitfireZero]

Cobus can you do Do It For Me Now and The War? It would mean a lot :]

Been watching your videos forever man keep it up

[OliwkaUS5]

Wow very very good. I could watch over and over again as you play ^.-

[thor21476]

i bet you he can juggle while playing this.

[FORGODSAKEIDONTKNOW]

all of your videos rule

[MrRhouwehn]

amazing work..hope you can do one for AVA's True Love..

[asolamon17]

@MrRhouwehn He made a video to Star of Bethlehem. Basically the same thing, check it out.

[mhmitslife]

awesome cover! i wish i could play like this :b

[butlerboy200]

damn, everytime i watch other drummers vids i feel like i suck. :( haha

[ILovePeanutButer7181]

it sounds like your snare is off, is it?

[crazyuki13]

@ILovePeanutButer7181 its just really deep

[ILovePeanutButer7181]

i got the 1337th like...i feel awesome

[TheJoemoze]

you have such a passion in drumming,but they are awesome 8^)

[ylille]

You love the drums...and it shows...this may be the best I've ever seen because you make it so real, nothing but pure satisfaction!!! I am adding you to my favorites as of right now! And my favorite song as well...damn!!

[ylille]

You love the drums...and it shows...this may be the best I've ever seen because you make it so real, nothing but pure satisfaction!!! I am adding you to my favorites as of right now!

[twommie]

justin bieber made 37 accounts to dislike

[A7X0313]

2:16 to 2:19 nice little fill type thing

[lepordgek]

1:51 starts the soka in the chorus. Interesting choice I like it.

[Blobman25]

Angels & Airwaves IS the best band in the history of bands!! Now me and Cobus have something in common!

[ztikmaen]

He actually used the chimes! :O

[Shadomancer]

@ztikmaen

wait til you see him play a guitar..

XD

[phitox008]

this is a good cover...

[GSYProductions]

why is it AvA? Surely it would be AaA cause it's Angels and Airwaves :)

[Lowdolski]

@GSYProductions its AVA because thats the name of Toms daughter. At least Im pretty sure, at least thats what i was told lol

[cardinalgold1]

@GSYProductions because the frontman's daughter's name is Ava, so he saw that when he was making the logo, if he inverted the A, it was her name. so the v in AvA is just an upside down A

[TheRossKinsey]

@GSYProductions yeah toms daughters name is Ava

[afterimage332]

@GSYProductions the 'V' in AVA is considered an upside down 'A'

[BassRiderX]

Great control dude...

[LinkinParkDennis10]

awesome !!

[danielmathias433]

awesome cover! You should deff cover Secret Crowds!

[jordan755347]

@danielmathias433 i completely agree with you , he needs to soooooooo bad!!!!

[fouryearslost]

2:14 to 2:19 = Jizz.

[Giuxy4]

Awsome!!! very nice :D sei un grande xD

[SuburbanFilmsInc]

The drums that Cobus has going just sound so beautiful and so fluent.

It's the combination of that, endless extentions of rythmn and awesome composition that makes me a huge fan as a drummer and as a regular person.

[Riku2424]

He's pretty friggin spectacular, honestly its talent and hard work, keep it up!

[1TeenBand]

the drum beat is amazing and you aced it

[aboveallelse666]

fucking awesome drumming man. although you should probs not put the microphones so close to the drums for this song. atoms drums are really massive and roomy, yours sound to tight. do you only have one overhead?

or maybe just chuck a reverb on the recording.

[MrPowerFly]

Those fills r so tight

[drummer835]

@MrPowerFly thats what she said.

[Eurotour93]

nice

[theDRUMMERDUDE100]

can i download your music off NAPSTER. if not please can you get it on there. you still get paid if you do get i dont know.

[MEXICAN726]

only if all drum cover on youtube can sound this good not to be rude but some ppl's covers sound horrible :P

[cavudog]

@MEXICAN726 Some people don't have money for mics and some of the people who do don't know how to mix properly. If the drumming is right then it doesn't matter.

[MEXICAN726]

@cavudog yeahh true true :) like me i dont have the money my drum set is cheap a sp with agazarian cymbals :/

[drummerdan15]

Cobus you are amazing at this song!!!!!!! You know what you are amazing at all of AVA songs.

[DrumsnotDrugz]

His chimes sound BRILLIANT!

I always thought you just had em'

And were never gonna use em'

I thought wrong!

Great work Cobus :]

[Warsteinerinfinity]

I LOVE THIS SONG

[Ganjamule]

just need a cock camera to round off the whole dick thing you have got going on there.

[thor21476]

cobus, please invite me to your place for lessons

[gunkis84]

i dont play the drums, but i could literally sit and watch/listen to you play all day.. YOU ARE GIFTED BRO!!! keep it up!

[paulweena]

id stick my nuts in the blender for talent like that

[himynameiselias1]

4:20 to 4:27 ORGASMIC SHIZZZZZ

[BerzurkurClaw]

Mark and Travis wanted to go on tour while Tom Delonge wanted to see his family, Mark and Travis didnt want him to because they were at the peak of their career Tom went anyway and they replaced him and made +44, Tom still wanted to do music so he made AVA. And now those dickwads are fuckin back! woo!! Blink 182 fuckin suck ur dicks!

[BerzurkurClaw]

Wow dude i wonder if u know ur good... maybe ur so good that u think u suck... i dont even know!

[o0potatofairy0o]

dude cobus you are like my idol, i totally look up to you

[slipknotboi13]

This-is-better-than-HomeWork,-­Wait-what-ain't

[Adamkooooooo]

this is very nice song with very good drumming and very often happens someone tryes(im not sure sorry) to make up something new to this great song but very often happens someone breaks up this song because,because....and i saw cobus call to arms i respect cobus but from 5 in 3 songs his style is for me disturbing and i was afraid but cobus plays it so good very nice his feeling is was great and light drumming only + beginning is amazing :) (i think the best of cobus) sorry for my english :)

[tonie188]

i dont know if youve already done it but can you cover any rush songs ? :D seeing you your carter beuford trippin billies made me think can you play neil pierts ( sorry for spelling lol ) xanadu ?? get back to me m8 :D

[matatak94]

2:17 is beautiful :O

[s3an37]

@matatak94 Couldn't have said it better.

[FathomWraithPB]

AVA is awesum.I-EMPIRE is their best album,but im getting into LOVE.I can't wait to start covering their songs.Any1 who can't recognise that AVA is talent,should get a clue!!!

[xM1k3yGx]

@FathomWraithPB lol at your ignorance. I love them but they're not good. They're a guilty pleasure at best. Also, We don't need to whisper is easily their best album followed by Love then I-Empire. Anyone who knows music will agree that you need to get a clue.

[FathomWraithPB]

@xM1k3yGx First of all-fuck you!!I am a musician and I have been playing for 5 years,I've just completed my As-levels in music so don't tell me I don't KNOW music.If YOU knew anything about music you would know that it's aesthetic,and so therefore it is judged upon OPINION.It's MY opinion and you have your own.So push off,I don't talk about music with musically inept people.

[FathomWraithPB]

@xM1k3yGx And another thing,I listen to a variety of complex & simple classical and rock music-I enjoy it all in equal measures.You know,just because a musical composition is simple does'nt mean that it's not GOOD(as you so IGNORENTLY put it).

[SoonerJRoD]

@xM1k3yGx lol so now everyone agrees upon what music is the "best" without opinion? Wow kiddo... if anyone is ignorant it would have to be you. My favorite album is I-Empire.... by far. Fathorn pretty much wrapped it up with what he/she said but i just thought i'd put my two cents in on an idiot as well.

[plimptonrocksmysocks]

woooooooooow...... incredible....

[Yaminoken]

Amazing Job. watching your vids.... I think of Drumming as a microcosm of multitasking.

[hereisasix]

this is a really good cover, whoever knew cheap cymbals could sound so good? I was really surprised when I bought my paiste5 cymbal, but the whole set sounds good too. keep on playing man, good job.

[Aquarezz]

Tom's singing is awesome, he has is own style not like many other fucked up bands :D Tom made Blink one of the best bands ever ;)

[willpill1992]

i think you overdid it on the cymbal accents in the intro. but besides that this was a fuckin solid cover

[PATTYKAN3]

humble beginnings for cobus...

[halowaffles]

Man you cover the worst bands but your so good.

[ThEjOeLz]

@halowaffles you are high as hell! AVA is all genius. perfection, fucking amazing! anything but one of the worst bands. probably the BEST!

[halowaffles]

@ThEjOeLz YOUR THE HIGH ONE. This band has no feeling, there songs all sound the same, the singer sounds like he just BARELY hit puberty(Why are tween voices so popular? To get in the girls opinion?) There songs are not original and no band members of this band strike me as "Wow! that that guitarist(example) is damn skilled!" Honestly, thia band is just another dull one like blink182 or jonas brothers. Moving on.........

[mandipthapablink]

@ThEjOeLz AVA...one of the best and most underrated bands of our time....xcept tom needs to work on his live singing...or his drinking

[SpikeTheMusician]

@mandipthapablink It`s not Tom´s fault that his voice is fucked up. Not the alcohol either. The reason is painkillers after he broke his back or something.

[mandipthapablink]

@halowaffles this is his favorite badly...sadly for you

[virtualpigmaster]

@halowaffles well...

[drums161]

nice man you got some good drum talent you should do a metal drum cover and hit me back with the link

[Ehwoke]

@drums161 or just subscribe.

[xPoLiSHxPoUnD3r]

dude that was epic

[actingonimpulse]

hes balding lololol

[enj01sk8t3r]

@actingonimpulse how do u figure that?

[enj01sk8t3r]

@actingonimpulse how do u figure that?

[crymizz]

@actingonimpulse OMG everyone is bald up his head , he has straight hair so seems that has less hair but check the amount of hair he has, it's impossible to become bald with that.

[miscool]

learn shove my angels and airwaves and upload it

[BeaChavez05]

[Franci2795]

[volcomRiderr]

[shadowmattp]

do some metal! like all that remains

[danverinodude]

@durryman

your saying angels and airwaves stole tom from blink 182? Tom Delonge made angels and airwaves you idiot

[durryman]

hes still recording for angels instead of blink which is a shit load better than every band in the universe

[DarkRiku809]

@danverinodude actually no he didnt, they just recruited him as there lead singer and song writer

[danverinodude]

@DarkRiku809 dude, tom started to band. he is the leader of the band

[danverinodude]

@DarkRiku809 dude, tom started to band. he is the leader of the band

[stjimmy55]

@mcloum So why watch this video? No life? Yes. I believe so.

[mcloum]

@stjimmy55 Ermmm no, im a fan of Cobus. not the bands he covers. Just cause i dont like the band doesnt mean im not gonna watch one of his videos.

[whatisayworks]

blink 182 broke up i think

[Crackbaby444]

yeah like 6 years ago. and then they got back together last year

[Sylar601]

yeah they are back

[bullsfan419]

.........

[stripesson]

What are you, gay?

[Sylar601]

they are back now

[almst6]

@durryman dude your a bitch

[54dmband]

i agree that he overplays sometimes, but he does to the appropriateness to the music i have a very similar style to him and i feel that its much more involved to play more and much more fun to put your own spin on it

its a very good crowd pleaser at points as well

great job not only on this but all your others as well

[leftbackchamp]

2 thumbs up! well done! +1!

[berthaqe]

how does he overplay this he just has fun with it and to all the people who say he shows off too much i beieve he has the right to since hes a kick ass drummer

[laxdude1616]

He's a great drummer, but he overplays many of the songs he covers, including this one.

[xKruegerxIsxSnipingx]

@laxdude1616

so, your saying he has too much fun playing songs? He calls them covers because SOME of it is like the original song but he also makes up his own little beats and rhythms which he finds pleasuring and i don't think i'm alone when i say i think he does it very well too. Please dont flame the comment page

[theDRUMMERDUDE100]

@xKruegerxIsxSnipingx What did he say i cant find the comment?

[babababakla]

IT'S COOL !!!!!

[mandipthapablink]

you can tell tht when he covers ava songs he really gets into it...like hes all head bobbin n all....hehe

[TheDrummerkid83]

wait new series Feb. 14th?

[bonesboner]

[aeiou112233]

what is the instrument played at 0:25 ?

[FailSoEpic]

i was just wondering, on the chorus, im having trouble telling, is it played the way Cobus plays it or is it every note without the gaps?

[DiabeticPlague]

cobus's drumming is whats stopping me from doing my homework :-P

[HanglooseProduction]

@DiabeticPlague Dude same here bro.. hahaha

[MrGhoop]

@DiabeticPlague he has stopped me doing my revision but this sure is sure as hell more interesting :P

[jonborne]

@DiabeticPlague

But, Cobus did his... !

[Frudler]

@DiabeticPlague

then again, what isnt? ;D

[TheNextAdventure]

Dude, amazingggg!! I am so glad AVA is your favorite band. You gotta do Hallucinations, and hopefully you do some of their other new songs too. Anxiously counting down to the 14th! WOOTT!!!

[SouthSideDummer]

[UnHoLyDrUmErSLOvE]
