[phinster70]

[MrSkateManiac666]

by far you are the best drummer i have ever seen... you play this song so effortlessly... you are my new idle... Great job :)

[BunnyCarey]

I envy you how do you do it... the hard thing is Everything .. endurance.. time sigs.. only danny can do it better

[withoutcam]

HOLY POTATOES! :O good job man, keep it up!

[shane013088]

thanks man this helps make up for the lack of danny carey footage :) awesome cover, great playing.

[smoshlover97]

I am learning this song right now and i use your cover as a lead so i can learn it. Just wanted to let you know

[heXen95]

well...im not good at anything now...

[drlovebutton]

As a guitarist I have always respected drummers. Shit is hard as fuck for me.

[imtallhaha]

4:25 tappety tappety

[deamonicguy1]

holy crap i matched the actual song up to this and it was like perfect

[shane013088]

@deamonicguy1 haha good cuz i though about doin the same thing but i was too lazy.

[indianapoliscolts914]

3:25-6:00= the best drumming I've seen in my life.

[Toolman050]

4:50- so gnarly

[BooTheGhost52]

Bassists do it deeper, vocalists make it louder, guitarists make it faster, and drummers make it harder... But this guy, makes it hard and with 10 chicks at a time!

[tkslipknot]

Dude you are fucking amazing!!!  wow

[damanwithdaskillz]

Wow, this is the best cover I have ever seen, and on one of the hardest songs to play accurately, accents and all, and you got it. You have amazing, amazing talent, I hope you go far

[JayahnWard666]

Amazing. Speechless

[miketh74]

AWESOME cover dude!! This is the first accurate and closest possible display of this song on the net - PERIOD! Thanks for helping me with this song!! AWESOME!! P.S. Liked your cover of Fool in the Rain also!

[tattoodbull28]

sick TOOL cover best Ive seen DUDEEEEEE, SWEEET ...youre style is crazy smooth

[mrfreedomthomas]

7/8 man...was it challenging at all for you to do a song like this in 7/8?

[electric6Funeral]

phenomenal!!

[zezema535]

7 deaf and blind people with no taste in music

[sexdad353]

bad fucking ass! you sir, should be in a band! great cover!

[colonel1278]

Fucking badass my man!!

[nikolejtmsl]

hey if you think this guy is good post this vid on your facebook like i did

[dheublein]

Nice work man, i'd have to be very picky to find anything... a few fills weren't on and whatnot but that was by far one of the best covers of a very difficult song. Keep it up dude!

[StaticImage]

Easily the best drum cover I've ever seen. By far. Damn fine job!

[JakeLikes2Drum]

Holy shit. If I could ever do that I'd shit my pants.

[JohnGorry]

A friend of mine's a massive Tool fan and he said no one has ever replicated Ticks & Leeches.

Has he seen this? I doubt it.

[JazzProgBoss]

One of the best covers on youtube. you are crazy talented.

by the way, What mics are you using? and what audio interface are you using? Your recording sounds really good.I need to get a recording system so I can start making some more covers. See my videos could be better with sound.

youtube.com/watch?v=Z6y-BlZ_Yn­8

[CBGDrums]

@JazzProgBoss thanks for checkin it out! Audix, presonus... I have all my gear info on my channel.

[JazzProgBoss]

@CBGDrums thanks. how long have you had your presonus and have you had any problems with it? im thinkning about getting one, but i don't want it to break like my last audio interface.

[CBGDrums]

@JazzProgBoss I've had it for about two years now, problem-free. It did take a while to get it working right with the drivers and such, something to do with installation, and my computer "seeing it" right. I'd recommend it, but I'd shop around, maybe try to find something that works better right out of the box.

[kengolfnut]

Holy shit this guy is legit!!! What ease, feel, and passion!!! Bravo sir.

[DrDonkeySlayer]

ATTENTION EVERYONE!!!

This is the best drum cover ever done! Perfect! Everyone who searches for a Danny Carey drum cover only dreams to come across something as amazing as this! Everyone should show their friends and family this perfection! Though, my question to you CBGDrums is do you have a band that you are in I can check out or some of your own shit that you have made up on the drums? Because me and the whole world would love to see and hear it! Please get back at me man. BTW, sickest style!

[CBGDrums]

@DrDonkeySlayer AHHH thanks, it's not true, but I accept the compliment! Yeah, check out Mad Shadow, the recordings are with their old drummer, but we're about to go in again. Strife, Vice Vine, that's some older stuff, me in maybe, Gr. 9-11. This summer I'll have all this computer/socialnetwerrks up and running, and there'll be a TON of musical happenings

[IxxXGodOfWarXxxI]

nice man you are very talented. I play my bongos and sing with all tool songs. LOVE IT ROCK IT OUT BRO.!

[sixstarcar]

EPIC

[papasitoman]

Shit dude that was great! The last two minutes or so were perfect! Nice work, bro.

[mcartz33]

i think one or two of the polyrhythms at the start was a bit off, bit im just nitpicking. freaking brilliant job mate!

[lookitsmyvideo]

2:50  thats where i hit the like button!

[TheHell2Come]

Just out of curiosity, do you have your snares turned off?

I've heard Danny does this in quite a few songs and I've heard a few covers of this song but I can't quite make out whether or not they're off

[CBGDrums]

@TheHell2Come off in the beginning, on at 1:12

[deathstar79]

Dude, that kicked ass. Keep it up, and do more Tool songs.

[kemmerl2]

You shit on that one bro, amazing song off an amazing album by unarguably one of the best drummers of our time. Great cover considering you don't have anywhere near the kit Danny's got.

[RedCurlyHead]

man realy like you cover..so professional I think..but realy wondering from what kinda music it comes this super addictive rythm it's so open minded do you know...I mean I wanna progress in music so need to listen some diffrent music...can you offer me some good artist or can tell me some secret of music and rythm :P

[EyeHaveFriends]

u forgot the cowbell solo at the end

[drex48239]

what sticks do you use sticks?

[CBGDrums]

@drex48239 Vic X5A's here, mostly X5B's now

[drumskater337]

i think to do this properly you would need danny's kit.

anyway way better than i could pull off so nice job. i really like the sound of your toms. what heads do you use?

[CBGDrums]

@drumskater337 Hey thanks, I think I was using evans ec2

[redhouse707]

@CBGDrums do u have vids of you doing any other tool songs? eg, third eye, /-enima, fourty six & 2, reflection, all dificult tool songs for a drummer?

[CBGDrums]

@redhouse707 Not yet no, this I think is the first and only so farr

[redhouse707]

wow flawless... i wish i could do this song

[theletteronyourcoat]

This is pretty close.  All in all a really good attempt.

[chesspiece11]

Thank you for playing the whole song instead of cutting out the middle part. I was surprised you weren't mezmorized during that section. I would have lost count instantly XD

[BXAssasinatorXS]

how long did it take you to learn that?

[CBGDrums]

@BXAssasinatorXS hm, maybe a couple weeks playing it off and on. I'm sure this wasn't my first try at it

[EyeHaveFriends]

my ears have a boner

[banginmastro]

oh yes. amazing job !

[deeko1973]

Hey man... that was amazing. This has to be my favourite drum part.. just wish I knew how to even start going about learning how to play it! Any chance of a slowed-down lesson showing how to build the rhythm up from scratch?

[CBGDrums]

@deeko1973 If you're talking about the intro, it's all singles. You just gotta listen for the accents, and see where they line up with your sticking. Do it slow, and build it up, one piece at a time! Thanks for watching btw :)

[deeko1973]

@CBGDrums lol.. it's the doing it slow part that I have a problem with! :-) Can't even figure out how to play it slow - don't know where to start cos it's quite a fast section and like you say - all different accents - so it's difficult to work out how to begin!

[CBGDrums]

@deeko1973 haha, fair enough. You'll have to watch to see where I go, but the accents go: RlrL rlRl Rlrl RlRl rLrl Rlrl Rlrl. It's in 7, so the pulse is on the first note of each break there. Snare lands on... 3. When the hi-hat foot comes in, it just rides that 7 pulse.

[deeko1973]

@CBGDrums Thanks for the help... I'll need to try slowing that down to 1/100th the pace and see if I can get the right feel.. all this without even the feet yet! AARGH! Maybe I'll stick to the guitar lol..

[SnakeShitNL]

And for everyone wondering how difficult to play this song is. We only saw half of the action, bass drum line is also very very hard.

[SnakeShitNL]

Man this is insane!! When I heart the song for the first time, I thought this is impossible. But man you nailed it!! Awesome, awesome, awesome, all the way. Your definitely a very very gifted drummer.

[antisoc1al]

Did you hesitate at 7:37? Other than that, looked pretty flawless to me

[CBGDrums]

@antisoc1al I think I came in a bit early and had to wait for the beat

[goricanec666]

dude u are awsome :D

and btw is that macbook in the corner? :D

[CBGDrums]

@goricanec666 Thanks! And yes it is

[fitzfresh18]

this guy is a little off

[MagicMidget88]

there is only one difference between this guy and danny carey....

Danny Carey is an octopus.

this man however is not.

[WelcomeWakinyan]

This was so good I added it to my favorites!

[barapglir]

holy shitttt dudee niceeee

[stooge123454]

and you had to choose the hardest song haha

[hey10674]

best cover of this song, BRAVO!

[BrianWilson720]

this is fucking awesome... for how long have you been playing?

[ssriedel]

How do they come up with drumming like that?

Do more Tool songs please , You have to admit you have fun

[typ3Onegative]

Khoya 7tiramati!

Cheers from Rabat!

[BXAssasinatorXS]

Can anyone whos tried this song tell me if its as hard as I've heard it is to play?

[ryanbeatbox]

@BXAssasinatorXS its very hard to play,. technically and physically... its insane... ive gotten the intro beat down, but thats beat at the end of the song is insane

[MasterKeith123]

@ryanbeatbox true that!

[19A7xdrumslayerA7x86]

@ryanbeatbox Yes same with me. I can play the intro part pretty tight just gotta work on the hi hat part i mean its cool to put it in but it wont mean youll suck if you dont play it... And Yes the beat at the end is pretty intense. Basically, drum kit+you+skill+rhythm+speed= Danny Carey :D

[Pur1ty]

gonna try to learn this song, too! :)

this looks like fun, while playing!

sad, that tool has a limited list of songs to learn on drums :((

good job! ;)

[MrVulgaris]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but you actually do this song proper justice. Well done.

[Dazcam]

no shitting way. i looked up your Honor thy father cover. Then saw this in the 'suggestions' tab. I almost died because I love this song and it's so fun to play on drums but i've never had the balls to put a video up of it. Well played btw that's kick ass.

[chesspiece11]

pants dumped

[808jam]

un stinking believable! that was awesome man. do more tool covers! theyre the hardest out there and u can play um!

[ScottArmstrongmusic]

unreal! 

[DrummrAzzr]

Your playing is excellent but the snare has a small presence :/

[wearethefollowed]

@DrummrAzzr small sticks.....

[theworstexperience]

you listen to the same music I do!!! love it

[IrishRhavin]

I NEED to learn this song! So awesome, great job

[lukester5280]

I dig your project idea, man. but shit, some more tool would be sick, because you handled this song

[wolverineboy96]

6:00 YOU ARE GOD MY FRIEND!!!!

[accutron89]

O . M . F . G

[jeromed2]

you don t play every notes and you miss a lot.

[domdamanisdaman]

great fucking job. but id change youre camera angle. i cant see a tom and a cymbal and i was confused for a bit because im stupid and then i figured it out haha

[hunterW1134]

holy shit, amazing job man

[myko2012]

i heard this kid's father was a drum kit

[cheemin2]

@myko2012 he beat his own father?!

[ObscureBeast]

Good cover. You in a band?

[Hipnorospo]

you need a little more precision, anyway good work  ! :D

[ToujoursLAmour]

I have been waiting to see someone do this for years. You nailed it.

[hiydradrummer51]

good shit dude that was awesome!

[whatuptino]

jennas a douchebag =D

[dguilbs345]

do you have double bass?

[prodjstx]

HELL YEAH...!!!!! Great Job dude, if Tool ever needs a replacement drummer, they need to call you first..!!! Take care...

[dialuppondo52kb]

Lol everyone always needs a critic, lol there wa sone accent at the beginning part before he starts bouncing the hi hat the you didnt quite get every time, but other than that, i wouldnt be surprised if your name is danny

[inthemood1939]

This is my favorite drum song of all time and you pulled it off near perfect. good job, man!

[Gushize]

good job best tool drum cover i have heard

[mikieisthshizz]

pretty good cover. the end is like impossible to play 100% accurate though. good job

[absoluterain]

You didn't play the hi hat parts at the start.

[missmurder99]

Yes he did.

[defianceofone]

Good job, man. You'd make Danny proud!

[coltonspurgin99]

I wish i could play this... lol maybe one day...

[terraleone]

i'll admit, i watched your 3's & 7's cover and your McFearless one and wasn't all that impressed.

I take it all back, you sure showed me.

[cotton691]

very impressive, nice cover

[birdoopp]

Impressive, that beast is quite a memorization routine, not to mention the chops required. Props man, great cover.

[kpanneton1]

I'll admit, that was pretty fu**in' awesome. Good job sir.
