[KarateKid9797]

Those DRUMs MUST BE made by GOD HIMSELF JUST 4 him

[MrPDPdrummer]

I hate saying this but this guy has been playing sense he was like 5 and has been playing sense, i dont know why everyone thinks he is amazing, yes he is good but anyone can be that good if they have played that long and put time into it.

[Noa4h]

Jeez man, your chops are legendary.

[bennyboy273yeah]

a celebration of insanity

[drumsbare]

[andydogz2000]

this made my house shake when i put it on the 5.1

[poberts666]

[thebeatlesliveon123]

that has to be the biggest drum set i have ever seen

[sassteve1971]

Fuckin' amazin' Jacob!!!!!

[omarpz2004]

it must have been a b@#$ tuning all those drums

[FractureTheBand]

That was alright.. Too many drums, too big of an ego. The effects are a little cheesy.

[drummerdog80]

[gpdrummer13]

this guy is awesome!! im a drummer too but im not as good as this guy check out my video its called drum video by gpdrummer13

[lotzi20062006lotzi]

amazing toms!!!!

[fattyfattyx]

to produce music on your own is like doing a solo as a song enough times to make an album its selfish not to share that creative ability with other members in a band also just because he is fast and his set is super big it doesnt mean hes better it just means hes a rich douche with a lot of training so i have no respect for a selfish bitch like this fool

[proto35]

he still looks the same, like you know well enough if you saw the old videos. what a beast, amazing talent this man has got

[TheDrumCritique]

fucking rubbish....

[TasmarCompany]

Verrryyyy cool etude. Nice drum sound, and nice playing.

[PaulStryper24]

[PaulStryper24]

Hey, Man

What Drums Are Those, Tama, or Ludwig

or Something?

[PaulStryper24]

Hey Man,

What Kind of Drums are Those? Tama, or Ludwig or Something?

[PaulStryper24]

How Much did That Drum Set Cost?

[imakery]

drumming is like sex its not about how much you have its more about how you you use it, and this guy shows that even if you have a 9 inch dick you can still suck at love making.

[ZaNpUcKToH]

flippin hell this guy has rolling thunder down to a tee...... he ish teh awesumness :D

[Orbidog]

Not so easy to go for a piss break being surrounded by so many drums...

[Kiwilsza]

imagine tuning all those fucking toms, it must take years cause each one is different

[MyNameLittleD]

at the end it gets better

[gpdrummer13]

This guy is really good, im a drummer 2, my video is called "Drum video by jeremy H." check it out (im not nearly as good as this guy

[Draxx420]

can you say virtuoso lol this guys fuckin amaszing i just dont understand how peaple can be so cocky as to diss somonething like this OMFG did you see that double bass control like comon guys

[railfan456789]

Is this guy in a band? Or is he a studio musician?

[darklorde42]

this is a really creative music video

its artsy

[conorboy22]

this is the only jacob armen drum solo i like

[6TypoS9]

awesome drumming! loved the ending

[WatcherC1983]

This guy has been a monster on the drums since the day he could walk... on Tonight Show at 7... 10 years old he had rolling thunder down on his kick drums more effectively than practically any other pro out there. Listen, to each their own, if Lars does it for ya cool, but innovators and people who can create something listenable and followable by them self rarely get the respect they deserve anywhere except tucked into magazine articles that only people who play read.Face it... this guy rules

[tlcfan300]

if Louie Bellson was alive, i would like to see him and jacob battle in a double bass drum for those who dont know who Bellson is hes known as the king of double bass drum and has played with greats like Duke Ellington and many more

[Drtool3]

Talent is talent and this percussionist has it.

[personaggio91]

So Gooood ...

[sam0xin]

VERTUOSO+GRACE+WISDOM=JA

[rockon30728]

how does he play the beats so fast?

[darkcookeez1]

i wonder how long it took for him to set that up

[PhilipZahnd]

NERD

[babadef]

"Vegita, what does the scouter say about his drumming level!?"

"ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[icura69]

Damn, he has huge drum set. Pretty awesome. Come by my channel and check out a friend of mine,s solo.

Thanks

[dnadevon]

That thing would be a hassle to transport!

[aaron19038]

how does he get out there are drums all around him lol

[ripbaloff]

holy shit thats alot of triggers

[poopyman78]

BOYS GOT THE DEVIL IN EM!!!

[TEPL1]

What kind of drumset is that?

[icura69]

Check out my channel to see another interesting drum solo. Thanks

[jonabig]

wow look at the drum set!!!

[slipknotfan22511]

hahaha

i love it

he still makes the same faces that he made when he was a kid.

[Drummerron17]

the next terry bozzio ..... absolutelly good drumming ...... keep it up

[hamster130]

Dang just to think he was a badass when he was a kid!!!!

[walanghiyangeisen]

that sucks!!... he cant bash those drums...

[crince11]

dude awesome but short but still cool

[LarzSG]

To much drums....

But he is freakin good!

[RideTheLigtning]

Holy shit look at all the toms!

[beastrevor]

wtf is that a drum set or a drum city

[jway70]

psht i can play that... SYYYKE!!!!!!!!!

[youdevil6]

pretty sweet

[theangrymongoose]

are you serious? you think this is all done on pro tools and that they are all samples? you obviously were dropped as a child

[LordStinkyFinger]

awesome drummer but this clip with him is really dull and shitty... he has other stuff thats lightyears better :)

[THEpearldrummer]

idk man this is pretty crazy, even for jacob. it may not seem like it, but this is much harder to play than many of his other solos.

[luckygoof]

You could be the slowest drummer in the world and be the best. Drum skill is measured in groove and rhythm.

[bhmetallicafan]

he looks a little like Nicholas cage

[leveledband]

some people were just born with a special talent and he has it

[alexsamuraiuuu]

Mothafuka! You are insane! I love u!

[mrpickles1]

this is true, speed is not everything, his drums have a wicked sound to them

[13JayBird13]

How the hell does he keep all that in tune...

Damn

[THEICETEEE]

thtas guy is amzing the only best drummer

[jazzaholick]

This is the best drum solo video i have ever seen. Sorry not the best solo but definitely the best video. i love the camera work and effects, it is pure video magic. hope i can make clips half this good. when i finely record my stuff.

[rey619mysterio619619]

ohh man thats so ...

[Aftersk00lSpecial]

u dont have to start young to be like the greatest drummer in the world. neil peart started when he was 13 and look at him now

[iate47goats]

i could spend hours with those toms

[RAZLCUL]

A CHIER !

[misterx360]

only one thing....

.

.

.

.

.

.

GOD

[worrierofgod4ever]

jip. God has gifted him well!

[MyNameLittleD]

that drum set is huge

[mikehasapearl]

amazing that was bad asss lol

[Apexxofdoom]

this sucks, but only because of the drum sounds. they`re all just samples, none of them are real. it would have sounded the same, even if they made this whole etude with the computer. who kows, mabye they made this solo with protools, and made jacob just show himself on the video.

[nkmsports031]

....your an idiot.

[schoolsib]

this is how real drums sound if you use triggers instead of microphones. this guy is awesome, does not need fruity loops etc. after all he made the same solo even better in live concert....

[ISAxFCKINxRIOS]

what? your comment made no sense. haha. you have this backwards. this video is how drums sound with a microphone, not triggers. stupid lol

[hawkcwg]

you use triggers man because at 230 its hard to hear the bass drum, all right..... Its gets lost in the microphones, you are still playing the notes. People are obviously very unknowledgeable of the purpose of triggers. Its not a bad thing to use triggers, i bet this video has triggers too actually.

[andrewheartsu]

He's a musical prodigy fool, his dad was awesome too...it's not just the fact that he started young, check out more of his vids.

[nosebleedbc]

oh man ur insane!!!

that was awesome!

[SD91007]

omg o.o stupendo!

[EdStrlngC]

that drums are great but why did he take all that drums if he only used a few? XD

but anyway that was awesome :O

[nocturnezero]

First off, he used almost all of the drums in the main kit, the rest are auxilary. Second, sometimes you don't play every part of your kit for a song, but its stupid to say "He shouldn't have it all if he doesn't play every single part in every single song." Why do bass guitars have 4 strings if you usually only play one or two at a time? Because the rest are NEEDED ELSEWHERE.

[smelyalata]

And in the chaos it was reason and intelligence that reared its head ;-)

[william10212]

And I thought that my drum kit was good...

And it is, but it's nothing to that. Amazing Drummer!

[wilqpl45]

Czapki z głów! To prawdziwy MISTRZ ! Fantastyczne!

[jshow420]

this kid's all show and tell, who the fuck puts drums behind them where they aren't accessible... i hop his arms get cut off

[pearltamadrums]

one man, 1000 drums

[blankbob99]

Those are the best sounding drums ever

[Lukatroid]

man this guy is good.

I'd like to see any moron who can find a better drummer than this guy.

whoever thinks someone else is better, is gay

[RickeyComedy]

those drums are freaking huge

[Archeon666]

what brand are those drum heads?

[paddybutcherboy]

Holy shit!

[martin3r3]

1.take ur middle finger and put on ur nose.

2.say a name of someone u like.

3.that person will ask u out or say they love u tomarrow.

4. heres the thing copy and paste to 2 other vids its tru i tryed it yesterday and it worked lol

[xfa1conex]

Fuck tuning that.

[NutSupreme]

i wanna see this guy play rockband drums lol

[biscuit1103]

go on terry bozzio vs chad wackerman his druming sounds like that =P

[Spre4]

the best in the world ...

[McQuads87]

uhhhh...

[hhssnare10]

Dude, this guy could rape Barker and Jordison

[Drum4hugz]

No thanks :/

[Zazquatch1]

The best sounding drums I`ve ever heard... DW?

[smugglemeelmo]

holy hell! thats like....23 toms without the bass drums. 0.0

[SCHUELERR]

i wouldnt say that travis is better then jacob, but i think also he has the greater style!!

[hovhaness]

This actually reminds me of some indian ragas that were played on table by Zakir Hussein.

Some amazing tone here.

[MyTalentClip]

Powerful!

[fenderjbass1349]

i dont like the toms,they sound like fuckin paper

[fatfriarmusic]

Shows what can happen if you start young...my God this guy is amazing and those drums sound so freaking good!!!!

 A true master drummer if there ever was one!!!! You kick butt Jacob!

[TubasherTim]

too true, what make is the kit anyway?

[skaterboi257]

This guy is amazing I wana be as good as him someday. Only if my parents started me young..

[cheessniffer]

I think he kills people when he looks at them because he is soo fucking great

[crazymetalfreak87]

Do you think he gets board at time and just plays blast beats

[JorJor812]

hahahaha

[deadloque]

XD that would be funny.

[skaterboi257]

Ur a dumbass and just wana b like him

[futilitymusic]

what you hear is him playing. no samples. just excellent technique, and a beautifully tuned and recorded dw kit. listen to some bozzio clips-his dw kit has a very similar sound.

[DUGZ09]

travis barker is better than this pussy,

and also joey josrdison,.

this 2 guys is the best drummer.,

[Bassmastajazzyj]

not even close and nice grammar

[hovhaness]

Who'se Travis Barker???

[vovoomz]

you sir, are an idiot.

[Phrase]

Travis and Joey are the 2 most over rated drummers in the world. Jacob was better then both of them put together when he was about 5 years old!

[braden1023]

You're such a douche!

[kleinerVor]

you damnit n00b!

[4517734]

travis might get better if he could afford a better drum set n not some PUSSY five piece set, Joey Jordison on the other hand is fricken amazing

[hellzambassador]

you are the fucking biggest idiot on youtube!

Travis has the worst technique ive ever seen. And all he does is simple shit

Jeoy just overall sucks dick at drumming which is y hes in a shitty band

[Blips666]

Actually the offical best drummer in the world is lars ulrich from metallica.

[xynbios]

lars from meallica the best dummer in the world??... are you kidding me??? hahahaha that dude's chops are weak. he's got some feel but that's about it.

[xynbios]

lars from metallica the best drummer in the world??... are you kidding me?? hahahaha lar's has no chops, maybe some feel but thats about it!

[bigSheaD]

Wow, what have you been playing for 6 months?? Or maybe you're a rockband drummer, lmao... What a stereotypical fav drummer selection for an inexperienced musician. Lemme give you a tip, if you're gonna insult a musician, talented or not, don't cite these two as you're inspiration. Travis is good, but nowhere near the best, and Joey is pretty great as well (even though he does catch alot of flack) but every 12 year old kid who thinks they're a drummer thinks he's God.

[duality870]

Lern2speel+grammerpleez.

Comments like this make me lose faith in the mental capability of humanity.

[beastman101]

LOL dude travis barker is probably still rehabing from that damn plane crash. Doubt he is better now...and he sure wasn't better at any other time.

[JorJor812]

actually no.

not even close.

go listen to the faceless or between the buried and me and lets see if  Joey Jordison can even keep up?

[nkmsports031]

asshole much? cmon man give the guy some respect.

[doofusblockhead]

travis barker sucks crap compared to Jacob Armen.

[MidnightRequiem7]

you are a fucking idiot

[zoomwaffle579]

um actually travis barker and joey jordison are not that great that joey idiot just plays double bass real quick and toms and travis barker is good yes but not were near this guy

[PossessiveObsessions]

Hahahahahahahahaha.

... Hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahah­ahahahahahha I laugh at your inexplicable ignorance. Once again!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaaha

[coachbell79]

You are an idiot. Travis Barker is an amateur compared to this guy.

[NoahSisk]

life is not about speed and crazy guys bashing their heads around on stage.

I am a fan of this guy and JJ

But thats just my opinion

[gabebage]

dumbass, they are pussies... you don't know good drummers, check out people like hellhammer, inferno or scott ellis...

[dexfafara]

Get out your silly ass.

Travis and joey dont mean the real knowers of drumming.

you dont mean shit to me!!!!!!!!!!11

[rawkenday]

neither of those drummers are better they lack the unique patterns this guy has

[obatao]

How does he get in there ?

[litlemadguitarist]

such control! :o

how says that drummer can't make music with drums!! ; )

[Ricky0drummerboy]

Simply amazing

[peacelovemusik]

wow!!

[isinglikechrismartin]

i want this on my ipod, i never heard music like this before. i didnt know it was possible to convey that much emotion like that.

[WaltMo4]

this man is a genius, point blank !

[freedomnow2012]

His all grew up and awsome than ever! LOL! SICK!

[DHDrumming]

he doesnt need all of those drums

[XDMikeyThePikeyXD]

JESUS this guys got some control and speed!

What a G!

[KillaJEZZY420]

better special effects than drumming!! Hes badass but its like hes concentrating all his beat on that wack pattern, and all the cool visuals take over before its done.. hopfully the long version is way crazier!! well done tho!!

[zinodikudu]

Jacob Armen seems to be masterful at varying dynamics.

His control over the drums is truly amazing.

[romimorales]

Fuuuuuuuuuuck D:
