[moby17169]

My laugh at 4:50

[trio952]

I like the little groove at 1:52. So sick.

[UKdrum1]

Love his grooves!

[MrBlueeyes247]

fuckin amazing!

[ItsMetals]

my favorite part was at 4:51 lololol

[TheArtOfCreationBand]

@ByoPhang a ghost note is a soft note. like opposite an accent.

[hauntedsoul21]

Check out the guy's feat in the front row of the audience haha.

[misterman93]

LOL at the kid on the floor rolling during the first 2 minutes of the video

[joeybiesiada]

hes improved alot since then

[rjohnson62587]

Knowing Steve personally and also going to the same drum instructor(Jack Brand if you are in the Rockford, IL area =P) I can say this video does not even come close to doing justice as to what he is capable of!

[theike40]

@rjohnson62587 I take lessons from jack brand 2, awsome!

[irishboy1012]

ummmmmmmmmmmmmm what is a Ghost note?

[Scrinny]

@irishboy1012 a ghost note i believe, is a note that isnt meant to fully be heard. i think its just kind of a lighter tap that serves purposes of a softer sound or just as a way to keep time to yourself and keep your hands moving. during the parts where hes kind of just lightly strumming the snare to make noise is where the ghost notes are being played. since it doesnt have the same thunderous sound of a full hit, it gets the name of "ghost note"

[thedrummerfinch]

so he was sloppy for a second, whether he was still warming up.. or thinking.. or just messed up beats me, but his ghost notes are insane.. and he is a top drummer.

[javi9446]

Look at those ghost notes!! Ahh!!!!!

[TheFallofTomorrow]

Beast!



[11nikesb]

love the color morale



[Treggify]

lol @ the clapping at the end

[theike40]

iive watched this like 12 times it just sounds so amazing every time!

[andrewscotter]

not badd!

[holdyourbreath717]

holy underrated drummer. until seeing this and studio updates from recording the new album, i had never noticed he was this damn good!

[evilwaffles]

he'd be really good at drum bass

[supraluvers]

so did he win!?

[sceneosaur]

2.02 THAT KID IS FUCKING FUNNY ON THE FLOOOOORRR

[fortheglory100]

LOL THE KID AT THE BOTTOM LEFT ON THE SCREEN ROLLING ON FLOOR... I LITERALLY ROFL'D.

[ColTBurn]

I need to change my pants.

[hetrickaj]

He didn't take 4 years of jazz band for nothing.

[BOABH1]

4:51 is the flavenjavenjajis

[crizzleisatragedy]

wow hes the fucking shitt

hes officially one of my favorite drummers next to:

matt greiner and adam gray

[Jere369]

@crizzleisatragedy Lol, I see that a lot xD He's actually my favourite next to Adam Gray :P Btw, I saw them in Windsor in August, and he signed my ticket ;)

[crizzleisatragedy]

@Jere369 dude seriously? :D

thats the shitt man haha :)

[DGKrew00]

@crizzleisatragedy you should really check out Blake Richardson of Between the Buried and Me...hes a god.

[ImmortalBeaver]

@DGKrew00 I couldn't agree more. I was thinking the same thing before I saw this comment XD



[ramSTUDIOS17]

His double kicks are undescribable

[DrumDestroyer100]

did he drum at this years drum comp? i know its going on right now but i havent been able to make it out there to see any of them?!?!

[alienxtreme]

inspiration...-Mike Portnoy...but not that good...Mike portnoy first...Steve second...siiiiiiiiiick!!

[thevaliantaisle]

they slack in tuning the drums at GC rockford

[DrumDestroyer100]

@thevaliantaisle oh man its terrible! i go in there about once a week and its bad! but hey the way i look at it is, you still get to play on a drum kit, unlike most imstrument stores in rockford lol

[Nokeroii]

*0*

[markltd250]

Steve Carey is what made me notice about the color morale he such a sick drummer =]

[ppdrummer09]

Saw Steve in Augusta not long ago and met him after the show. Probably one of the coolest guys I've ever met in my life, and he drums like a God live. So sick.

[leinahtan25]

I wanna see kevin lane at a guitar center playing drum solos :(

[iwantboi24]

That looks like fun!



[WoWThatsTasty]

not bad

[DRAD1992]

did he win?

[alltimelowava182]

.... and people say travis barker is the best drummer ever... BAHAHAHAHA

aaron gillespie could crush this guy though :)

[DRAD1992]

@alltimelowava182 nah

[beamanfrancis]

@alltimelowava182 im sorry but aaron gillespie is not this good at drums...

[111whitepony111]

@beamanfrancis lol. that's completely opinion. drums aren't about just hitting shit without anything backing it or without a rhythm. drums are about what you can bring to the table with others and how you accent and fill the musical space. i think what aaron does is WAY more ingenious than this guy who sounds like everyone else.

[Hdgunnell66]

2:17

I didn't know you could do that with one foot....

[BZbodyboarder73]

@Hdgunnell66 he wasnt playing with one foot....

[Hdgunnell66]

@BZbodyboarder73 He basically was.

[BZbodyboarder73]

@Hdgunnell66 no you can see him move his left foot, he just barely moves it, probably due to the really smooth double bass pedal. now 2:20 is just awesome, thats one foot

[Hdgunnell66]

@BZbodyboarder73 Haha, that's what I meant, since he's using one foot.

[XXOAPTRAGEDY]

My favorite thing about Steve is how he can play a steady beat on the ride, keep an offbeat rhythm on the toms, play double bass, and snare. It makes him sound like he has three or four arms.

[OathForFew]

very talented :D

[BuddleTrouble]

Proto it was a bit sloppy i agree but yes he was probally making it off the top of his which is what i do steve carey is my favorite drummer im not hatin by saying it was sloppy for like a second at the begging

[casemanoh7]

For those of you who say sloppy are really stupid.. It's a friggen solo which he's improvising...

[norka99]

poopy

[theangrymongoose]

This is pretty good for the type of band he is in. Usually bands that record with Joey Sturgis have bad drummers that can't even play the parts Joey wrote for them in studio. This guys sick.

[BZbodyboarder73]

@theangrymongoose so your saying the drummer from For The Fallen Dreams, the Drummer of The Devil Wears Prada, the drummer of Asking Alexandria, the drummer of Of Mice and Men, the drummer of MyChildren MyBride, and the drummer of Miss May I, are all bad?

[ohalistair]

@theangrymongoose yeah last i checked it was the drummers who wrote their parts for their bands music. not the producer. moron. look at Daniel Williams from The Devil Wears Prada's parts he wrote for Plagues, clearly this type of music has talented drummers.

[theangrymongoose]

@ohalistair I wasn't saying that there wasn't talented drummers in this genre. I just think it's lame that most of the bands in it, record with Joey Sturgis, who does sugar-coat the drum parts they write.

[ohalistair]

@theangrymongoose I must admit there is a level of consistency within the genre. Not so much with the drumming but they all play Truth or Shine drums and have similar set ups and cymbals.

[theangrymongoose]

@ohalistair Yes, pardon my first comment I never meant people to think I was saying these guys weren't talented. But apparently Joey Sturgis lets the drummers who are recording with them pick the drum samples they wanna use. They just always pick the same samples haha.

[Jasonmcromer]

@ohalistair because the genre they play in require a peticular sound to the drums they use. you dont see jazz bands using a hardcore kit, or an alternative band with a punk kit. each genre uses peticular drum kits to match the sound and tone they play in. :)

[scottfumc]

have to agree on those who said a little sloppy but he does pick it up some half way. and no he is not anywhere never an amazing drummer. he should stick to him metelcore

[AuroraSunset]

holy tits...

[andreplaysdrums]

Color Morale. one of my favorite bands.

drummer of Color Morale. just skyrocketed on my list of favorite drummers.

[proto35]

okie i wont lie, dont hate, the intro was a bit sloppy. seemed as if he was nervous for some reason. first solo i guess, BUT it got reallly good half way, and strong all the way until the end. so great stuff bro :D

[IceBladeJutsu]

that makes sense.

[tmatelski]

damn Steve, when the hell did you get to THIS point!! I love you and miss you man.

[tmatelski]

makes me wish I didn't quit playing :(

[JakeTheGuitarGuru]

@tmatelski then start playing? fucking DERP.

[lilround1]

lame

[defdet03]

@lilround1 your mom

[savchuktaras]

awesome. talent!

[6mindless6scarecrow6]

lol Foster was better, and STEVEN!!!!!!

[jesusaudon2612]

that's sooooooooo rad!!!

i can't believe he didn't win :(

[IceBladeJutsu]

bass drum sounds kinda odd but very nice

[VexedSamith]

Beast

[CrazylorFTW]

so fucking sick, I had no idea he was THIS good.

[ostovall]

this guy is the biggest badass ever!

[NOWNVR]

about 3 min it gets better.

[rockerstevenc]

frickin' rad!

[ahddrummer1287]

he didnt place because he told them not to judge him because they were leaving for tour

[Frijole85]

that's why he's my hero!

[kikirune]

how'd he place?

[emxrawrr]

How did Steve not win this?!

He was great! :D

[w4fflezZ]

:]
