Cool video and talent... but wow, you are the stiffest drummer I've ever seen. I'm a drummer myself and I think you might feel better and also look more natural if you use your whole arm. It looks like your triceps are glued to your sides, and your wrists are in a cast and locked in place. Try using all 3 of your joints (shoulder, elbow, wrist) instead of just one (elbow) and you'll probably notice an improvement in your ability, reach, and definitely stamina as well as looking much less stiff.
@Octoschizare are you joking? you are supposed to play from your fingers and a small amount from your wrist. Yeah your arms should be loose, to help reach, but drumming with your whole arm is just impractical.
Soundgarden's music is a bitch to cover (thanks to the insane vocals that define Cornell, Matt's drumming, Kim's and Ben's playing and the odd time sigs and tunings), but you did good, keep it up!
I was going to buy the song by the original artist but then I realized that I could just steal it instead and repent since I'm a Christian and have faith.
Music was well, somewhat perfect, but damn dude, I suggest sticking with bands with singers that don't project like Chris Cornell. I think there are very few if any that can duplicate what he does with those waling vocal chords of his! Your Toadies cover was 99% however---perhaps more bands with voice talent in that area/genre would be best.
Awesome cover Eddie. I was thinking for your next cover you could do either South of Heaven by Slayer, Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden or since you appear to favor 90s alternative/grunge maybe some thing by Faith No More.
Welll I'll be damned.... That was great man. Im jealous of the versatility, I sound like a mentally retarded woodpecker when I try to drum, and I can't sing for shit. If you ever get into the realm of doing covers with different peoples let me know. I'd like to "interjam" with you sometime.
@HermanniSan I messaged him about his music and he wanted some ideas of what bands he should cover. I told him that I'm really into grunge and that Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Nirvana and stuff like that is awesome. He said that he wouldn't do Nirvana because they're too iconic.
That kicked ass!!......loosen up on the drums....you look like a robot......and you know this!.......but still.......kick ass talent man!......(work on not lookin like your unconfident on the drums)
Two tips from someone who has done studio work. 1. Drop your vocal mic about an inch - it's affecting your range. 2. If you're hunching to play the drums, they're not setup properly. Space them out and raise them to the proper height.
wow, this is actually really good! Edward after your comedy religion videos I thought these covers would be spoofs, but you're really good! Very nice and I'll subscribe happily!
@Quintinohthree oh well that would explain things! Who knows, he may get just as much attention on this channel if the covers are this good and better.
Yeah on the drumming: I'm not complaining you're doing a great job, but if you don't want any arm injuries, I suggest you use your wrist to move the drum stick, and not your entire arm. :) Great, great job though :D
GOOD shit lil dude! didnt know ya had 3 twins. the drummer is the "slow twin" right?
amazing , im jelous what kind of mixer did you use?. i play all instuments as well and would love to try something like that but i have no clue on what kind of software to use for mixing...any help?
Great job man. I always loved the weird times/rhythms Soundgarden used in their music. Excellent playing though. And the reverse solo part with the water going up into the bottle. Awesome.
Nice cover. Your drumming is a bit stiff, as you might know :) the easiest way to get rid of that is play a lot and jam with slower songs. It will eventually get better. Also knowing the right technique helps a lot :)
I want to make a constructive criticism, according to my impressions. Just my advice via my own opinion. Eddie, you seem to be struggling with high notes on the vocals, but you have a great voice for melody. So try singing the higher stuff a bit more in your range, it's not necessary to try to match the original. You see vocalists often in concert singing some parts of their own songs easier, when they know they just can hit the high one this time and make it sound right. It's better to go easy.
Dude, you're amazing for not taking drum lessons. lol But, a tip from one drummer to another. You gotta play more with your wrist. The only reason I assume you haven't had lessons, is because an instructor would never let you play like that. :P
this is just one fucking dude..
