INSANE



[wecamesbromans]

he needs to not hit his drums so hard , i bet he has so many broken cymbals he doesnt know what to do with them.

[ThePb02]

@wecamesbromans i think after 22 years of drumming,he knows how to hit on a drum...

[fattymattychady]

@K4rN1v00L I'm fairly certain that Aaron Gillespie is no noob and has far more musical diversification and talent than you will most likely ever possess....just saying :D

[K4rN1v00L]

idk how hard it is to play cus i dont play but its sounds sloppy like an abortion? idk doesnt sound pleasing to the ear its like hes hitting random shit total noob

[humdigadiga583]

@K4rN1v00L your an idiot

[ryanoathpradaforce]

@K4rN1v00L he's showing how you can use a metronome to do crazy off-beat rolls and such and be able to get back on track with out messing up. something you couldn't do since you can't play.

[killjoyshidae1208]

let see, aaron gillespie + dw kit + epic drum skill = YES!

[Trans9]

he got fat

[jcdoll07]

I love this man.

[BigPlumpGuidos]

Whoever would hate on Aaron is just jealous. It's as simple as that. His style is rare.

[PinkDrumzz]

You know your a good drummer when you dont follow the metrenome, the metrenome follows you.

[bmac111260]

that was freaking ridiculous

[bluelightning133]

1:25 you can only have wrists like that if you masturbate for many many years, or your Aaron Gillespie.

[sounddrums]

Even though I've been to soo many UnderOath shows I just now noticed he red he gets while hes drumming.

[NvScreams]

he gained weight since he doesn't sweat everything off drumming with underoath :/

[XxTaylorFuhrmanxX]

he looks really uncomfortable



[MattMahoneyDrums]

Okay, he's not a solo drummer? Answered ALL questions/ silenced all trolls. Here, for example, would you rather have Aaron in your band, or Thomas Lang playing off-time solos in your song? Exactly, Aaron plays musically, and energizes music more than just about anyone out there. He also is a very tasteful in what he plays; for example, watch the video of him playing "Who Will Guard the Guardians" on Truth Drum's channel. The original part that he wrote is probably top 3 most-tastefull drum part

[skateanddrum101]

@MattMahoneyDrums You have a link to that video?

[ChrisLovesDRUMS]

what the fuck

[06livefast]

If he were a muppet he's be animal

[ipreferexpostory]

AWW shoot Truth Drums GONNA BE PISSED! But damn that's a damn good solo imo.

[chickenbeforeegg]

@ipreferexpostory It was just a clinic set, he's still endorsed by Truth.

[musicmantwj]

Although his technique is a little off and he tends to hit the drumset a bit to hard, he does have a very cool, expressive style :) I respect him going out on a limb and being different. Maybe he's not the best drummer or drum teacher, but he sure can feel it when he plays :)

[TalmidimV]

@musicmantwj People at his church complained about him hitting the drums too hard when he was a kid....

[EpiphoneLPJrGuitar]

omg beastly!

[Badunkawank13]

lol I remember when he was like "so who wants to try?" ........... no response ....

[PLBIV]

why???

[TheGuitarbeast75]

this was like a month after i saw him on his worship tour (:

[randomgmanify]

the similarities between aaron and animal from the muppets are endless .... in a good way!

[freohr789]

Those who can't appreciate his love for drumming need to GTFO. They're probably just hating how he left Underoath.

1. I don't care how people bash on his style or talent, he's really amazing especially by what he puts into his music.

2. While he loves drumming Underoath isn't his musical preference. Those who can't let him or his feelings be are selfish. If his heart leads him toward another style, I'm perfectly fine with that! Everyone else /deal with it/ and give the poor guy a break~

[jonathantc08]

hes a faggot. and what could he possibly teach anyone? how to peel a banana?

[drummerliger678]

@jonathantc08 hahahaha wow you are such an idiot, lmao that was the worst joke i've ever heard. so bad it's funny

[jonathantc08]

@drummerliger678 so bad its funny? so it was a good joke then... you simp

[drummerliger678]

@jonathantc08 you're a joke commenting on this video and simp?

[HelmertzIF]

@drummerliger678 Don't mind him.. that's my 5 year old cousin and he thinks he can drum

[drummerliger678]

@HelmertzIF how did he get an account if he's five?

[TheLizBerenice]

he is another level!! Great!!

he plays and sings for the best Jesus!

amazing!!

[dingusass]

@TheLizBerenice No sub-par Jesus for this guy!

[redjumpapp28]

he needs to come to my school's Overflow. :3

[mariorossipuzza]

I saw underoath on their last concert in milan (april 2010) and i appreciated Aaron's drumming, but now i find him so repetitive and SO overrated.

[Drum09Bum]

This is awful

[dannooooooo]

you can see where his passion is, even if he always says its for god, he played that for himself

[XxDRUMMERKIDxX96]

this is so out of time



[chapwells]

@XxDRUMMERKIDxX96 It's called swing for a reason.

[1Navle]

his hands must seriously hurt after he plays o.o he hits so hard!

[zzzzzushi]

damn he always almost makes a cymbal stand or something fall! BEAST!

[kylepackard]

@drumsallout Stop banging the mess out of his kit? look man, when you stop being judgemental about other drumming styles that are different from your own, then you can make that ignorant comment. Ever heard metal music? Ever heard of Underoath? Obviously not.

[mouseproductions]

the sound on that snare is deeper than the ocean floor hahah

[marlonparras]

Is it me or does he look a bit chunkier..? :/ He's still got it though.!!!

[lautaropelotudo]

this is such an inspiration!!!

[stoneman619]

THOSE CYMBALS WERE RAPED

[ryanoathpradaforce]

dude, how can anyone honestly think he sucks? he's obviously better than all of you who think that, or else you'd be the ones who got famous. jealousy!

[TheCompulsionToKill]

@ryanoathpradaforce js fame has to do with marketing not skill lol but nice try

[ryanoathpradaforce]

@TheCompulsionToKill that doesn't even make any sense bro.

[TheCompulsionToKill]

@ryanoathpradaforce uh no actually its perfect sense if you knew what you were talking about. its not about skill its about who will make the most money and how you promote yourself

[ryanoathpradaforce]

@TheCompulsionToKill so what you're basically saying is that you can be a plain, boring, not that great drummer and become famous if you have connections. that's a stupid way to do things.

[drumsallout]

@ryanoathpradaforce Aaron was my favorite drummer for a LONG time, glad i found better drummers to look up to like the jazz greats. Aaron needs to stop banging the mess out of his kit

[ryanoathpradaforce]

@drumsallout it's really a preference, as long as you don't say like "man this guy sucks." then i'm okay with it. he's obviously really good, one of the best in his genre. but jazz drummers are jazz drummers, and he's a hardcore drummer. ya know?

[drumsallout]

@ryanoathpradaforce He is not hardcore. Hardcore are bands like advent, madball, terror, venia, call to preserve

[ryanoathpradaforce]

@drumsallout okay, "heavy." he's heavy.

[CoryZamparelli]

I hate when people always hate on aaron or any musician that had to do with the hardcore/post-hardcore genre. they are some of the most talented, passionate, and unique musicians around today. and just like all other musicians this is his passion, his way of expression. So if your going to judge and say he's "immature" , then stuff it because 1. you yourself has no musical talent or merit to judge, or 2 your a 55 year old classic rock fan that thinks if its not van halen, it sucks.

[Thecalebguy]

@CoryZamparelli or just any classic rock only fan Lol. Aaron's my hero

[MEINLdrumjoc52]

@CoryZamparelli lol to the last statement

[HondalongoFilms]

@CoryZamparelli nooot the most talented, or unique. at all. they all play the same shit and not much of it is anything outside the box.

[dustyowl99]

why is this a clinic? its just him having a sezuire

[dustyowl99]

dude wtf..

[TonyDanger]

Just average, no feel.

[kaseyyydrums]

@TonyDanger What are you talking about.... he has tons of feel, more then 95% of drummers out there. I don't how you could watch this and say he doesn't have feel unless you don't know what feel is.

[TonyDanger]

@kaseyyydrums Youre clueless little kid. Go listen to some Buddy Rich and then come back and talk to me.

[kaseyyydrums]

@TonyDanger Like I haven't already a million times? Just because he hits hard doesn't mean he has no feel.

[superchanneljim]

@kaseyyydrums He has feel but but not more than 95% of other drummers. Thats fucking crazy talk. Aaron is god at what he does but honestly you need to do a little homework before making a statement like that because if your a drummer, your either ignorant young.

[superchanneljim]

@superchanneljim sorry... "good" it's that god thing thats the funny part.

[chickenbeforeegg]

This guy's a fucking monster!

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

He's still one of the most immature players around. Don't call me a troll, because I'm far from one.

[ToXiCiTyClanRS]

I was there!!!! It was much better live :D

[rocou]

he does the same beat ALL THE TIME.....snare roll, hihat, snare tom floor tom, cymbal...srry but i dont see TOO MUCH over here...

[emberworshipband]

its weird not seeing him on a truth...

[elunico13lu]

damn it does my heart good to see this man rocking the kit again.

[HookMaster3000]

@elunico13lu FO REAL!!!

[macelol]

I don't get it?! He does this amazing fills and wierd rythms but he always get up right in the click! And that boys and girls is a good drummer ;)

[mrkr3wspanky]

He's getting fat!! Lol but really this dude rips the drum set. To all the haters/trolls: you suck at drums :)

[tyhicks2]

@Xxryebread2511xX lets see you play better =). If your habits are so much better, post a video response.

[antiporn777]

Its funny most of people commenting on this. Does not know who he is. Whats up with this ???

[Xxryebread2511xX]

just because you hit the drum too hard and over exaggerated do not make you a good drummer to teach other bad habits

[AlexDrums4Klunge]

DW Drums and Zildjian cymbals? Someone explain? :|

[J0shFrazier]

@AlexDrums4Klunge its probably the venues drum set.

[TheCoverCore]

Dude. He sucks. Learn something more than triplet fills you noob. For god sake, why did Truth give him a signature kit? Go check out Eric Moore or Mike Johnston for real drumming. This guy sucks..

[danieljdrums]

@TheCoverCore He absolutely does not claim to be the best drummer or even close to it. He drums from the heart and that's all that matters. He gets a signature kit because there are thousands of drummers that like his drumming style.. his band.. and so they'll pay for a well made "custom" kit. End of story. If you don't like him as a drummer.. why did you even click the video...

[TheCoverCore]

@danieljdrums A friend sent the link. I watched it. And here's a hint. Its not much style when you just thrash a simple beat and put lame fills in it. Literally any kid who has played drums for about a year can play this... clinics are to teach new things...not reteach something you learn by listening to creed.

[UFHGProductions]

@TheCoverCore Are you kidding me? Creed? thats the worst comparison that ive ever heard....just because you dont like someones style, doesnt mean that its not a style.

[BlakeLovesdrums]

@TheCoverCore Aaron is an incredible drummer. Your drummer isn't jack shit compared to Aaron. I watch your videos and I was shocked to see you comment on this. I would like to see you get a signature Truth kit, Oh wait you can't because you are a cover band.

[Xxryebread2511xX]

@BlakeLovesdrums He has a signature kit because the band he was in got big and had alot of publicity

[PuffinsLaughter09]

@TheCoverCore It's not about what you play, it's how you play it.

[SharkMako]

@TheCoverCore write your own music and get a guitarist who knows how to tune a guitar noob

[nretterath]

Sounds awesome, but I have one question, HOW CAN HE SEE!?!?!

Haha im just kidding! Awesome work btw!

[Kurtalicious1]

@nretterath haha he doesn't' NEED to see!! lol

[BreakB97598]

his hands are so stiff lol

[dahicopito]

THE BEST

[FabricSoftener12]

He is awesome but I hate the way he just wanks away at the drums:/ take a chill pill dude it's a clinic.

[toOgoodLooking4yOu]

lol the people looking through the window..=)

[toOgoodLooking4yOu]

Great footage bro...luck.=)

[Eduwunderoath]

Aaron I love you friend! this is so very good! Back to Underoath please rsrsrs

[TheMatadrum]

Is this dw kit a one off? or is he no longer endorsed by TRUTH after leaving Underoath?

[pizzepper]

@TheMatadrum No, it might be another kit of his, but The Almost picked up a Truth endorsement too, and his signature kit is still being sold by Truth, so he still rocks Truth.

[user13579246801]

aaron ftw

[MsEstherlove]

I met Aaron and his wife around this time... such amazing people. He is a really gifted guy.

[bscott6593]

this belongs on animal planet! haha. it's awesome!
