drum duo-Adam and Grant

[mosh404]

Why even compare Grant to Adam. Adam destroys.

[scootbp93]

travis can do this...with a broken arm and no double bass.

[calebandrewmichael]

I've been playing for 5 years and can play basically every Blink 182 song there is. The same cannot be said for every Texas in July song. Different styles, but Travis is not near as good as everyone thinks and no where close to Adam OR Daniel Williams OR Matt Greiner. Period.

[SlipknotXxMaggotXx]

What band is grant in?

[DrummingKid101]

@SlipknotXxMaggotXx This Or The Apocalypse

[ddrumdaz1]

does Grant have his bell on top of his splash here? i might try that when i get a splash and bell to save me buying 2 cymbal arms :D

[jeffkenevil]

anyone know the song? or did they just make it up?

[XDirkLanceX]

@jeffkenevil its TWO WARS by This Or The Apocalypse

[NeutralzSorcerer]

China Sounds Like Trash , Im A Good wAY

[dremorabrisco]

So they're synced up... big whoop. Whatever happened to cool shit like the Godsmack drum battle... two people playing different beats simultaneously is way more entertaining... and I don't even like Godsmack that much.

[ABRfanDAN]

Grant needs to eat something

[im7onthe7th]

frames per day?

[bustanutt177]

Anyone know what that splash is on the ride?

[iwillwait]

@bustanutt177 its not a splash, its a bell chime, the -> LP bell <-

[bustanutt177]

@iwillwait thanks man



[iwillwait]

@bustanutt177 no problem bro! take it easy!

[abdielfromhell]

what were they playing?

[dmcshaw67]

@abdielfromhell two wars from this or the apocalypse

[XxDxRAD17xX]

best sounding china... any one know what kind it is?

[namelessH3R0]

@XxDxRAD17xX

These are both 'Zildjian 18" Oriental China Trash', and you're right, they just sound awesome

[AmitKanfi]

i think grant, adam and matt learned drumming with the same teacher. lol

[JCFreak1121]

who is grant?

[ImNotOkIPromiseYou1]

@JCFreak1121 hes my cousin and the drummer for the band This or the Apocalypse. very good band check them out. also a lancaster band

[FromUnderOrion]

jesus its like watching grant play in front of a mirror...

[kpcatcher924]

a video where adam has his shirt on?! aside from the juggling of 3 sticks vid, i didn't think there was another one out there.

[TheDestroyer068]

How dare someone say ABR isn't good!! I love my boys!!! They're amazing

[kpcatcher924]

probably one of the best drum duo's ever? yeah...i think so.

[mikeymorbid]

Reading these comments make me sad...my band plays with ToTA pretty often, I personally think Grant is a better drummer because he's more creative, but I don't think they should be compared. I like ToTA better than TIJ cause I think ToTA sounds the least like the lancastercore, but Adam is still no doubt a great drummer.

ABR isn't good, they repeat the same album over and over again. Matt is def talented though.

[Ptolemy1140]

@mikeymorbid i could not agree more with you if Matt just found a different band he's be way better off

[salamandergod1]

@mikeymorbid are you aware that it is the drumming in august burns red that makes the album sound so similar to the last?

[Pinguimacdc]

its real .... impossible ...

Oo...

[Bessellieu91]

4 People still believe Travis Barker is the best Drummer....

[Maccsiboy]

@Bessellieu91 you can't compare two different drummers who doesn't play the same kind of music!

[mikeymorbid]

@Bessellieu91 You do realize Grant grew up playing to Blink-182 and still does. travis barker is still incredible. 

[mrstealyogirl2012]

@Bessellieu91 I THINK MATT GREINER IS DA BEST :)

[BaronGhede]

@Bessellieu91 Travis Barker isn't even that good. i don't det why people think he is. there's a billion other better drummers. Danny Carrey, Thomas Haake, Chris Adler, Steve Smith.....

[JackonAimtomisbehav]

@Bessellieu91 those 4 people are morons and shouldnt have and opinion

:P

[skcurryboy92]

@Bessellieu91 i gave up on that idea when i got into metalcore (c. 2007-08). Travis is good, but what cheeses me about him is that his fans think he's like a drum-god or some ish like that. they need to be introduced to the works of Jordan Mancino (AILD), Matt Greiner (ABR), Daniel Williams (TDWP), etc.

[darkstateofmind]

@skcurryboy92 travis is really good though, i mean some of the shit he can do with one hand is like jaw dropping

[DrummurDer1992]

@skcurryboy92 wtf.... daniel williams? He's really an average drummer dude. Oh and Trabis Barker destroys these 2 guys easy.

[rvk1994]

@DrummurDer1992 travis is shit on these guys shoes. adam is twents and he is ten times the drummer travis is already.

[keithpwns]

@rvk1994

Who the hell cares? He's awesome in his style of music, and these guys are awesome in their style. Get some humility, real drummers would respect him for doing what he loves.

[rvk1994]

@keithpwns He's not awesome in any style. Period. Somebody playing for two years could be at his level. I don't respect people who think he's better than drummers like these guys, and I don't respect the way he does the same thing in nearly every song.. not to mention the way he deliberately ruins his gear. Travis Barker is totally overrated personified.. Fact.

[keithpwns]

@rvk1994

LMAO. Listen to the record "I Am" by Texas In July. Same drums for the whole thing. Just because you don't appreciate any music but metalcore doesnt mean you should put other drummers down.

[rvk1994]

@keithpwns Yeah I've heard the record buddy. Clearly it's not the same thing though the whole album. And I appreciate all music actually :) I love blink 182, they're a great band. but Travis Barker is totally overrated. He's not skilled he's just a show man. That's all he has going for him.

[keithpwns]

@rvk1994 I apologize for being a dick haha. The album's guitar parts are all nearly exactly the same, so the drums really do have a lot of similarities. But I'm not hating on Adam, he's an amazing drummer.

[rvk1994]

@keithpwns S'all good.. yeah the guitar parts really are similar. but they change a lot in their other songs. yeah he's quality.

[njudndudi]

plleaseee just one of them for my band pleease :D haha

[BurnThePope0514]

The big bang theory joke wasn't that funny

[potbellyconnan]

shits sick as fuck!!!! notice the 4 unlikes

[Rompepropftw]

the 4 people who disliked this chose "the apocalypse" instead of "this" videos like button.

[awiss2012]

Possibly the worst drum duet I've ever seen.

[skaterbobo17]

you know theres a reason they dont have matt, adam, and grant playing together in the same room. the last time they did that...well....remember the big bang theory?

[DimebagDisciple]

someone HAS to audio-sync this!! not me koz i a) dno what they'r playing and b) don't have any video editing software .. but please! someone!

[DimebagDisciple]

@DimebagDisciple my bad: watch?v=za5QJvEDn0o&

[FOBluve1]

@DimebagDisciple It's not lol

[vgl19]

It feels like im watching some dude play drums in front of a mirror! :D

[alwayskating]

Something I've been wondering, When you have two cymbals stacked (like the splash and the bell, or the ride and the bell) do you need anything special to make sure they don't crack, or is felt enough?

[cptjackdrummer1]

@alwayskating im pretty sure felt is enough. ive done it before and never had problems. and i did it for at least 3 months.

[guitarheromazter86]

The only thing more awesome than this.. Would be to add Matt Greiner into the mix. :) And that rhymed, lol.

[Gregolaaa]

they are playing two wars from this or the apocalypse.

[LiBshothesheriff]

what song are they playing along to?

[GCimprezaFTW]

@LiBshothesheriff

I'm not sure exactly which one, but I'm pretty sure its a This or The Apocalypse song.

[NirvashZ]

I think this song needs more china! :]

[grahamcrackerpiano]

The Lancaster County Tour should happen.

[TheSaggyNapkin22]

I wonder what it would be like if these guys attacked you with drum sticks.

[ajjbones]

@TheSaggyNapkin22 lmao!

[Bwh2q]

@TheSaggyNapkin22 You would receive a polyrhythmic beating.

[justin0185]

[TillmannBTVdrums]

@07SayOcean yeah man. that's what i do for my show kit. it has to be a drum set snare stand though.

[christmastwins]

@07SayOcean yes you can.

[kiodo99]

Jeez I knew these guys are crazy talented but they are ridiculously pro with that synced movement

[VitilioAA]

[Kaiohate]

[NeoFreek16]

Gotta say Adam is an incredible drummer.

[thongmisterlbc]

the dude with the shorter hair is adam grey from the band Texas In July, they are super sick check them out

[MrSpitz99]

somebody please clarify - does this band have two drummers? if not, which one is the drummer for ToTA and where does the other guy come from?

[tphan5719]

the guy on the right is from ToTA

[contestpriz]

@tphan5719 The guy on the left is from Texas In July

[GloomySunset]

what were they hitting at 1:08? it was louder than everything else?

[8195229]

@GloomySunset

they were just tapping on their legs. since they weren't hitting a cymbal it would help them keep time if they would tap to simulate hitting a cymbal

[GloomySunset]

oh. they must've been hitting themselves really hard, then. lol "stop hitting yourself." :oD

[MikeWillDrumForFood]

I think you mean the bass drum? The bass just seems louder because it's not getting drowned out by the cymbals, but yeah the other thing is either the floortom or their legs haha.

[Cranorangegrap7934]

it was just the mic on the camera adjusting to the volume change because the cymbals werent being hit at that part.

[vicegrip37]

They're hitting their floor toms.

[lxThaKiNgxl]

@GloomySunset they were alternating between the kick and the snare i think

[drexblasties]

Damn. This made me want to make a video like this. It would be so sick!

I'm definitely jealous of Adam Gray, Grant Mcfarland and Matt Greiner's friendship. All three of them are so damn good! Let me jam with you guys!

[jaydoode15]

@drexblasties they also have the same style of drumming

[wohleralex]

Like Adam's mess up at 1:06? He made it sound good though.

Haha. Adam and Grant are both amazing.

[JordanWieber]

hat song is this?

[masterhand510]

This or the Apocalypse - Two War

[NaTeiiSBeaST]

@ToSufferInSilence saying you prefer adam makes you sound gay bro. But yeah, I think adam is better, or atleast when he plays he doesnt look as tense as Grant does, but both amazing drummers along with Matt Greiner from abr.

[oOoShadowZoneoOo]

@NaTeiiSBeaST And Jordan Mancino from AILD and Jason Costa from ATR. :)

[lobster272]

not even close.

[ToSufferInSilence]

i don't need to be a drummer to know that they were tight as shit. these guys are both really friggin insane at what they do. i prefer adam tho : )

anyways... the only thing that bothered me was that at like 0:31 when they do the snare hits it sounds like they're flamming a lil bit, but idc... it still sounded cool

[FitToRide1]

they were together didnt hear them drag.

[coffee2donuts]

They're actually playing Two Wars by TOTA lol

[MisledDeath]

yep thats a turn on

[AdrienDead]

Awesome =)

[JessJessism]

i think its so cool that TIj,TOTA.ABR are all good friends and all 3 drummers are fucking amazing

[mitchelcollins]

i know that texas in july is from lancaster, is this or the apocalypse as well?

[chgotbanned]

i think so

[chameleontreefrog]

i believe so

[matt2910912]

yeah they both are and so is august burns red i think

[ScreamoDrummer4life]

yup ABR is from Lancaster

[Meatlooaf]

Zildijan Oriental!

[ryley5string]

what bands are these guys in?

[Noncheat]

Adam Grey is in 'Texas in July'

Grant is in 'This or the apocalypse'

[MasterofCarrots]

at 2:08, what size bells/cymbals did they use?

[masterhand510]

what song are they playing for?

[ddrummersurfa]

"Two Wars" from Grant's band.

[JMgymnast22]

I just realized, Grant almost looks like matthew lillard, the guy that plays shaggy in the scooby doo movies.

[oOoShadowZoneoOo]

HOLY SHIT. lololol

[instantsurgery]

not really lol...

[VitilioAA]

@JMgymnast22

 hahahaha

[ktmluva13]

@JMgymnast22 ha get shaggy the baggy so he can roll scooby a dooby

[xbrennanwallacex]

CHECK OUT prepareme7 's drum videos

[lukethebandit]

preface: i play guitar so just my constructive criticism...

but you both need to play a lot cleaner to be anything close to matt griener. the double bass especially. but you're both good; matt is just a beast. keep it up!

[gac3la]

ADAM OWNS....period

[pureblood57]

Adam Gray is awesome, Grant McFarland is awesome, and Matt Greiner is awesome. end of story and have you seen Adam play he is so clean.

[brock1129]

yea so is matt. theyre both sooooo good like i love it like they play in metal bands but do such like awesome beats and shit. they really are greta inspirations to all drummers.
