  • fucking insane!!!!

  • yea, he is better than me

  • I just love how hard he hits the hi-hat pedal XD

  • derrick roddy wins my vote as one of the best drummers who is versitile in drumming today! if lets say you talk about the legends like steve gadd.. he is good at one type= grooving. derrick roddy is good at so many!

  • Why do you have to bash on Chris Adler or any other guy on this video ?

    Why dont just we all enjoy the geniousness of this guy ? :D

    Thumbs up or else ... :D

  • @DBROF i agree, if there had to be comparison on this video, there should at least be with another extreme metal drummer, but really there should be none at all.

  • derek roddy is o.k chris adler is way better

  • @456punkrocker should never compare too different, both great in their own ways

  • hes nothing on chis adler

  • @jimmyboy141414

    So then just watch Chris Adler instead.

    And learn to spell his name.

  • holy sht man thats the most bad ass fucken drumming...i mean its not fucken shredding or speed its just the style he puts into it is bad as n the fillins are short but orgasmic lol

  • lol he really slams on the brake with that hi-hat pedal.

  • Roddy could go out and probably play for any band he wanted to. He has the chops for any genre, as well as the credibility. He has my total respect.

  • UNREAL!! Truly my fav drummers !!

  • joey jordison is a piss of shit

  • shut up mother fucker

  • he looks either in the zone or very mad:D

  • sonor + meinl + derek roddy = holy fuck.

  • I'd recommend ignoring rrdrums110, he spends hours every day trolling the videos of drummers he doesn't like.

    Just another youtube commenter who needs to put others down to feel good about himself.

    I've seen him say the same things on at least 20 different videos, just insulting people and acting like the king of drumming. People like him don't deserve any attention, although he does seem to be desperate for it.

  • which further proves why you are a still an ignorant moron. i can play press rolls in my sleep, and i started learned all the rudiments when i was 5, and i practice alan dawson's rudimental ritual (the same excercise that he taught to tony williams) on a regular basis. i can also assure you that guys like sean reinert and derek roddy (who play metal all the time) most certainly know their rudiments as well. you bitter sad old man, time to get a hobby........

  • tell us where we can find the laws of metal drumming and let's see if there is anything written regarding playing doubles with hands.......if there is any law... if metal drummers should not play doubles with hand, therefore jazz players should not play doubles on feet??? tell that to the late great Louie Bellson who pioneered the double bass set up and is a great Jazz Drummer.

  • @rrdrums110 Watch some of George Kollias' videos on his page if you want to see a metal drummer do rudiments. His rudiments are extremely precise at high tempos... I don't even listen to metal... But there's no need to put down a good musician just because of their genre...

  • Ok, for all you who havent figured it out, it says "soundcheck" in the title. He's playing as loud as he can for a reason, most likely so the sound guy can make sure theres no clipping.....

  • YUMMMMMM CYMBAL WORK!!!!

  • you can tell he was really feelin it that day.

  • That's real brilliant!! I've seen about a dozen vids. Said basically the sma thing on each and every one of those.

  • hahaha maybe u shoudl watch his other vids and see how he really plays this is just one video and ur gonna judge his hole playing style what an ignorant asshole

  • and you are...?

  • No, actually it's become clear that George Kolias is more accurate than Derrick Roddy. But I still like Roddy as a drummer more because he at least knows he should learn more than a stupid useless metal style. I think he wants to make some money in this lifetime and have some fun. You've got to quit living off your mommie to have fun.

  • rrdrums110 you don't like the style, you don't comment the style... it's not so hard.

  • This comment is all kinds of ignorant. I play in many styles of music and I can tell you that even where styles overlap, it's near impossible to throw influences from all styles of music that make themselves heard on the first listen. Obviously he's playing the part to keep the bands sound where it should be.

    I don't think youve done your reading enough to speak, metal is todays most technical genre As always though, music is only as simple as you make it, and 10% of ANY genre is musical genius

  • Funny I thought Iheard him say after one of his tours he wound up w/about 600 bucks.What a pro. you young twerps don't have any money to spend. He's not a radio hit maker. So it's not going to matter how long he wants to tour out there. He isn't going anywhere trying to make it off broke twerps.

  • fuck u must have no life. i've seen u comment on so many drum videos just bagging people out. seriously its just sad and no cares about any of the stuff u say. so why do u keep doing it?

  • What a shit stupid drum style. What is it good for. No groove no technique. Oh wait i just thought of what it's good for. it's good for cymbal companies. This dude breaks about 5k a week while sucking the donkeys dick. B/s non-drumming.

  • lol.. its a sound check hes supposed to thrash everything to make sure nothing is loose and wont fall or move during the show. and im pretty sure he can afford 5k a week for cymbals having toured the world with 2 bands and all.

  • ya gotta make sure there is no clipping and the mix is right etc definitely supposed to hit hard for that.

  • Roddy has no technique? Are you stupid? He has amazing technique and is one of the most accurate drummers i've ever seen. Last time I checked you weren't endorsed by Meinl and Sonor. Just cause he's not playing beats from Beatles songs doesn't make it bad. Album sales doesn't dictate the quality of music either.

  • primal scream therapy = AWESOME ;p

  • I wish i had (1) a replica of that set, and (2) the skills he has lol

  • (3) his hair :P

  • lol maybe not quite that long lol

  • lol

  • is enyone knows when they will release any album?

  • excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • what is the band name?

  • traumedy

  • Agree with knoffman... cool riff btw

  • "Alright that's cool" :P He hits really hard, never seen him playing like that lol, Derek Roddy kicks ass!

  • well... i had some probs once cauz the bass drum moved in the front while playin double bass(but i continued playing lol..im kinda ok tatz why i managed) :P soo now i kno tat i hav 2 chek lol ALWAYS ...

    check to save urself frm humiliation :P :P

  • i've never seen him hit this hard.

    but i've never seen him live :(

  • yeah same here...

    but when u r live u usually hit the hell out of the drums lol + itz a sound chek soo u hav to c that no matter how hard u hit nothig goes loose or anythin

    :D im just bored

  • lol usefull though cause i had no idea u checked that nothing fell appart :P

  • lol

  • what's song is this ???

  • Temple from Traumedy, work in progress

  • "Allright thats cool"

  • hes sets up like me except i dont have money for that good of cymbals and that many hahahaha and not that drumset damn why didnt i even say anythign at least my drum setup is close ahahaha

  • otra vez.. saquenle el enchufe del ojete please!!!

  • i just love his how he has tuned his snare!!

  • yeah. first thing i thought. teh snare is SECKS

  • 1:09 to 1:10 is such a loud ass accent on the kick drum. That was ridiculous!

  • does anyone know which cymbals (crash cymbals)

    is he useing? would be nice if someone could tell me.

  • Paiste Cymbals

  • those r meinl cymbals...go to meinlcymbalsdotcom to see exacly what cymbals his using, there's a bunch of great vidoes too

  • this was supposed to be a reply to SoloKeeper47...

  • are you sure he used meinl at this time?

    anyway , thanks for the answer.

  • i'm not sure, but before meinl he used to use paiste

  • no , before meinl he used sabian and before sabian , paiste. thats why im not sure about the cymbals and i would like to know his cymbal setup from sabian.

  • Oh u're right man, i forgot about that!! anyway i've found his sabian set up back then: Cymbals 18" AA Chinese 12" AAX Mini China 13" HHX Groove Hats 10" AAX Splash Top half of mini-hats 10" Alien Disk Bottom half of mini-hats 18" Vault Crash 10" AA Splash 16" Vault Crash 12" AA Mini Hats 17" AAXtreme China 20" Vault Crash 21" HHX Groove Ride 19" AAXtreme China
  • oh thats awesome! thank you!! :D

  • shit...look how that place is big O_o

  • man this is a tight beat i love it

  • greaaaat drumming and fucking nice song but I don't understand which he plays a roll on the toms from right to left. I feel unconfertable when I play a roll from right to left because I'm right handed and I start rolls with my right hand. HMM Strange

  • he puts his toms like a lefty and plays righty because going small to large on the weak hand is less movement in your arms, thus more endurance.

  • At 00:27 NIGEL!

  • it was a drum festival.. they played along to soundtracks not together with a band

  • it was a drum festival.. they played along to soundtracks not together with a band

  • This video is so fun to watch.

  • thats what i call sexy

  • ''all right, thatss cool''

    thats what he said after destroying my brain with one of the most awesome songs ever!

    he wasnt breathing hard or anthing.. and maaan he really got violent on that sonor kit...

  • especialy the cymbals :)

    man, those sticks were just flying

  • At least he's playing in all ways. Playing that hard is cool :)

    1 pair of stick each week? lolllll

  • well thats nothing, if you take a look at thomas lang: he destroys 70% of his cymbals every gig oO

    xD

  • why do you hate my comment? its true :D

  • nice kit.. good sounding heads too...

  • hell yea he's wearin a sonor shirt

    mostlikely a sonor kit then

  • He is a SONOR Endorser

  • please 'embed' this video!!!

  • Roddy owns Kollias big time.

  • Yeah indeed

  • If that comment was meant for me, what do you mean?

  • Wow he seems to have gotten a lot more into his playing since his older videos. His playing was awesome. Great upload.

  • love it love it love it

  • that temple is giant

  • lol this is some simple metal- drumming

  • Study into who Derek Roddy is before you make yourself look like an idiot.

  • puıasdhadjhasdad.. lol who are you?? buddy rich?

  • wow...amazed!

  • i wish i could put this in my myspace, please make it so we can take it

  • ok yes please do ask derek when it will be out this sounds just crazy good

  • i want to bum him lol

    jokes

    his playing is fenomonal now since shes stoped doing just death metal

    thes becoming some wht of a role model recently

    lol

  • yes i see how drumpoopdrumpoop can associate this particular song with tomas haakesplaying style.. the snare even cuts through in the same way hakkes does great vid and song sounds realllllly good

  • Wait... Derek fills that a place with that size? :O

  • fucken amazing, derek rocks at any style

  • If you ask me, sorta looks like Tomas Haakes playing style in this song. But I know they are completely different. Its a good thing though, song sounds sick. Where can I get this stuff?

  • It's not released yet. I'll ask Derek when it'll be out.

  • Thanks man I really appreciate it. Its great stuff! He does plan on releasing though, right?

  • Derek said that the Traumedy stuff doesn't have a solid release date yet but it should out by next summer.

  • It sounds awesome, Whats the story on the main genre? Is it at all like Hate Eternal?

  • roddy's a monster on the set

  • Rrrrar Nice !!

  • Awesome to see Roddy start rocking out even though its only a soundcheck.

  • How does it not have a million hits by now?!

  • great song,heavy drumming...nice.
