That guy looks wayy to tense when he plays. He aught to use more relaxation or he can get some serious tendonitus. He may be relaxed but it just looks really tense and uncomfortable when he plays.
your right i thought the same thing hes loseing alot of energy too when you use your whole arm to play your going to get tired alot faster but to hes trying to really get the power out of his sound which is y he playes like that just get a heavy loud sound but he can do that with out useing his whole arm
youve also got to imagine the adrenaline hes got playing this song live, shit i play in my garage and i get a rush haha i cant hit the snare hard enough!
111% agreed :) Matt has gotta be the most technical metalcore drummer that ive ever heard. I just read a comment the other day... someone said they met his mom and she invited him over to Matt's house!!! Man that guys lucky.
my dad was emailing him a month before the show on phoenix. and i met him. we're actually somewhat of friends now. it was the best night of my life. hes such a nice guy, and definatly the best live drummer ive ever seen.
but it was so tight talkin drums with him, and showin me his stuff. ill see if i can upload the video from that night. ;) ill keep you updated.
sweet! yeah I'd like to see that video. wow I know that must've been the coolest thing ever. And what I really love about these real down to earth bands is that they actually care about their fans lol :D unlike those stupid pop singer idiots who think their so hot with their sunglasses, limos, and security guards. (Not that any of those things are wrong in themselves, but just their attitudes make it all suck).
haha dude definitely, plus ll that mainstream stuff you see on mtv and what not is basically talentless music, i mean who cant play 4 power chords? haha MATT OWNS
gotta say matts the best. hes got spped and technique ya chris adler is beast as well. the stuff chris does blows me away. hes way accurate. also is jason bittner of shadows fall is really good. but a really good undiscovered drummer is sam murphey. search him up and watch his improv stuff. its crazy!
tuely a sick ass video! i saw him warming up on his practice kit, outside of a hollywood show about a yearago they played with haste the day and sksk.
i was in a band that played the same stage that day. we got all access passes and free food and stuff. it was awesome. my band is called mrs. ippi (myspace/mississippimetal). check it out.

man chris adler aint shit compared to matt greiner.. (spelling?)
he has so much more skill than chris adler. all chris adler does is quadrooplets and lots of ride bell and splash and doubles over doubles
its really predictable drumming. i mean hes good but not as good as matt.
