Cobus - Avenged Sevenfold - Almost Easy (Drum Cover)

[TheThrash888]

The Rev would be so proud!!!!

[thereverend094]

for him, it's ALMOST EASY to play drums .. :))

[jz0288]

Nice Drumming There great

[TehSilencerzz]

Amazing, just amazing.

[Crazylocopr1]

This guy looks like my geography teacher. *would be cool if it was him*

[LAZ3RXDaMaGeRX]

i've seen no one who plays this song so good as he ... ( and of course the rev )

[LAZ3RXDaMaGeRX]

AMAZING GOOD DRUMER !!

[jsrkill]

well this doesn't look 'almost easy'

[tauntzero]

Can someone please explain to me what he does at 0:34...

[bshoty9]

@tauntzero He hits the bell of the ride cymbals. That's what the Rev did, at least. Idk I think he hit one of the rides and one of the crash symbols.

[theguitargod3825]

@tauntzero Its a double ride cymble thing, that the rev created, hit the bass drum and the ridde cymbal at the same time! haha

[pepparmostheelder]

@theguitargod3825 Good ol' double-ride-thingy :D Only difference is that the Rev had his cybals placed differetly on his set

[joshthambiah]

SHIT i want his drum set :(

[splaijsen]

Is that a brass snare? What size and brand is it?

[knicholson985]

one of tha best drummers ive seen and does the best covers, flawless

[yuval678]

what drum set you have DW?

[TheMrcombobreaker]

not even close to easy actually...

[XoSTRINGBEANoX]

unbelievable. dude that is sick in 1080 and full screen. love it man. hopefully oneday i could do that camera work.

[TheBlueDevilz]

sweet double bass

[SuwakoFan]

and that's my friend , playing with passion

[nakeejake69]

What kind of headphones are those?

[TactualBenna]

Probably best cover on youtube

[magicalpandaboy830]

if you think he's amazing and the best drummer ever, you are dumb. look up jojo mayer, mike mangini, or neil peart.

[danielzelda21]

I love this song you did a great job but i was wondering if you could do a cover for Already Over by RED

[rpgz300]

i wish i knew how to play like this

[BRAINDEAD776]

why cant modern bands drummers fucking blast beat like men -_-

[RandomStevie]

@BRAINDEAD776 Blast beats are for pussies that can't sound hard unless they're playing 32nd notes through the whole damn song.

[SpesMorte]

@RandomStevie i beg to differ.

[explodingpimp]

@RandomStevie Don't knock on it just because you have no idea what you're talking about. Any decent musician wouldn't talk crap about other styles of music for no apparent reason... obviously that slipped your ignorant mind.

[RandomStevie]

@explodingpimp This "ignorant mind" also happens to listen to metal with blast beats and is completely fine with them. Just because I don't like blast beats in metal doesn't mean that I'm not a decent musician. It's like saying to Buddy Guy that he's not a good musician because he doesn't appreciate hardcore punk.

[explodingpimp]

@RandomStevie You listen to music with blast beats? Either you're lying, or you listen to shitty blasts from BMTH. You contradicted yourself... You said you're completely fine, then a sentence later you said you don't like them. And anyways, if you read my comment you'd know that I said a decent musician wouldn't knock other styles for no reason, nothing about appreciation of it. I'm sure Buddy wouldn't like hardcore punk, but i'm also sure he'd rather go on with his stuff than bash punk music.

[RandomStevie]

@explodingpimp Being fine with something and not liking (using the term liking in place of enjoying, obviously) are not contradictory. i don't like my neighbor, but I'm fine with him being my neighbor. I.E. I don't like blast beats, but I'm not disgusted of the song because there's one in it. And first you say don't bash music, and then you say that BMTH is shitty. This argument is pointless and I think we both know that.

[explodingpimp]

@RandomStevie No, being "fine with something" does go against "not liking" something. That's a dumb example... If I didn't like my neighbor I'd probably not be fine with him being my neighbor... Anyways, I never criticized BMTH, if you read the comment I was talking about the blasts themselves, which are sloppy. Compare the blasts in BMTH to Kollias's blasts in Nile and you'll know what I'm talking about.

[damz177]

that is cool brad , can you teach me ? haha

[juggalettesnooki625]

omg yur so amazing I waanna have yur baby

[kleptomanickate]

I'm not sure whether I want to shag or you collapse at your feet, cry and worship you.

[hsnuurylmz]

OMG DUDE!!! he is best drum player I've seen after The Rev!!! 

[NHcrownvic]

why , omg this guy is and always a star . RIP .

[synystergates474]

I love cobus and a7x.

[JojoBurnsRed17]

love the smile (:

[CourtneyLovesLilly]

I used to be a HUGE a7x fan and I would go to all their videos and say "a7x foREVer" which I thought was pretty clever from an 11 year old

[angelcanoacrecords]

WWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! KICK ASS DUDE!!!

[egyptianenglishFTW]

well ...it's Brilliant but a pro drummer would notice that he is missing some notes ...being filled in by the song.

but it's an overall Nice video with an awesome show style in playing : )

[EppickWinn]

@egyptianenglishFTW He learns all these songs by ear, so its not that far fetched that he would miss a couple notes.

[egyptianenglishFTW]

@EppickWinn i do that as well xD

[videtetThe]

OMG! ? so cool.../watch?v=bWPujpqS9yU

[schloovin]

hey, ANYONE reading this should type in 'Matt Widen' in the searchbar.. he only has 1 video that he just posted yesterday, Closer to the Edge, but it is incredible.. and i think that he will be big!

[slash2335]

you are the closest to Jimmy on this song man great job.

[beckhamshotz]

You have no freakin idea how happy I was when I saw that you did two A7X songs! The Rev would be so proud:)

[MrBeyondBlisters]

Man this guy is really clean!! Very impressive!!!

[MrSynysterDeath]

I love the double bass you add at the end of the song. Fuckin sick.

[xXcasupXx]

[7145PJ]

[Forgetfulfergtison]

[VictoryAndVengeance]

4:11 Oh God,you're so cute for remembering Jimmy.Now I love you even more :3

[jackalhunt1]

Ok we get it, you used the title of the song to describe how good he is... clever.

[1Daddoz1]

Excellent!

[A7Xgates666]

I don't usually watch many covers of Avenged Sevenfold songs.

[MrArturoPicazo]

Man, what a disappointment! At 3:27 you ommited lots of bass kicks.  Still good, but oh man...

[MrArturoPicazo]

Video´s awesome, but at 1:49 i don´t see left beater moving :/

[DRUMconorbradz]

@MrArturoPicazo i thinks that because he is using heel toe

[liveandletrock864]

@MrArturoPicazo he does most of his quick bursts with one foot. you can see it in other videos too

[delhiskatingdays]

u gotta be in A7x well maybe if u want

[Cod5n00b]

dam.. hope im as good as you in 10 years when im 23 ^_^

[dustyverhoeven]

dude you have to go to the musikmesse in germany its the biggest theater en musician fair there is with al the newest drums

[DuhStringer]

Best drum covers out there, good job. Id kill for that studio

[amERIKanLove]

3:21 hes like "i cant believe im doing this i look so freakin cool.." xD

[Zimwalk1]

Watch out Portonoy.

[ShreyDoshi]

The Only Youtube drummer with 2,555,752!! thumbs up, if you agree! :)

[iDrumFourChrist]

can someone please explain to me, in detail, what is played on 00:34???

[StartsonFriday]

@iDrumFourChrist 16th note double kicks, then 16th notes on the bell of the ride and bell of the crash, with snare hits on 2 and 4

[iDrumFourChrist]

@StartsonFriday Ahh ok.. Thanks.. I thought it was some paradiddle or paradiddlediddle thing but I guess not..

[ruben03gitaar]

Damn, you make it look almost easy

[AcERioT115]

@ruben03gitaar i see what you did there...... xD

[TheJdog56]

@MsYouareWRONG No, because The Rev made it you complete dumbfuck.

[castro1780]

Good drummer but definitely overrated

[georgeinfection97]

the rev would be proud of you :)

[jorisca5]

@georgeinfection97 he is :)

[DeathDealersGaming]

Also if cobus is better i want to see him play a full concert and do back up vocals too...not to mention all the Revs fans

[DeathDealersGaming]

@MsYouareWRONG how u gonna say that about the person who wrote the song...if the Rev wanted some extra gay little cymbal touches that cobus did he would have done it...no one matchs up too the Rev

[killaboy9812]

Ive alway dreamt of plyin guitar wit him on da drum
