Minor suggestion: make more videos.

[shivasalvadore]

[ckarnell]

@mapsandatlases is it weird at all to you that kids post videos of themselves playing your drum parts?

[madocmatthews]

[exceptionalchris]

That was legit

[takecontroldestroy]

well done. :D

[AmberSkyLane]

For the love of God, just move to Seattle and lets make sweet, sweet music together. Still on the search for good musicians after jamming with a lot of random ass bands.

[sveet11]

fuccccking amazing. 

[ilovemutemath]

Well done!

[marcwnelson]

Not bad.. you need to relax though. I would suggest practicing with 2B's and then play with like 7A's or something. Steve from circa survive suggested I do the same and it works wonders. You especially will blow your own mind man.

[AkashiXI]

Really good man! Your accuracy was spot-on.

[slavetodetails]

omfg amazing. seriously. how long did that take you? i should show my old drummer this, it would light a fire under his ass. :D nice shirt btw.

[8BITGOESBANG]

[kdijamco]

[716gumdrop]

yeah youre awesome dude. sweet jobby job

[euphoricxd]

you're using a double pedal right? i don't know if the actualy drummer uses one or not.

[RatherDashin]

@euphoricxd he does not, and i do not believe this lad is either.

[cohenmkarnell]

@euphoricxd i didn't use a double pedal on this song. it doesn't have any crazy footwork going on

[marcwnelson]

@euphoricxd no, he doesn't use one in maps.

[marcwnelson]

@euphoricxd No, he doesn't use one in maps.

[johnnyjigball]

@euphoricxd he does, i watched them live a couple days ago.

[Bowyme]

Really awsome cover man! keep it up! I'm trying to play it myself to. Could you help me out with the notes he plays in the vibraphone? :D Thanks in advance!

[kalnoky14]

sweet ass cover and nice tiger army shirt

[theavondon]

Yeah, win.

[Terencegelo]

excellent cover, not easy to do by any means. i believe the kit is a gretsch catalina birch.

[bbdj12]

verryyyyyy good!

[burtoda]

good job dude good cover

[TheIanWhiteman]

I'm very impressed. Keep up the work man.

[niloc141414]

[ChetSon]

[bghozali]

That's pretty f*ing retardedly awesome...!

[tiburshiok9901]

good job!

[acousticparade]

dude so legit!!

[JusXcore]

Absolutely amazing. So well done. Only minor problem I hear is between the triplets at 2:45 it sounds like the bass should be constant eighths. Other than that, epic skills.

[cohenmkarnell]

@JusXcore hah wow i noticed that myself a long time after posting this.. can't believe someone else did. you have quite an ear. sorry for the super late response

[DannyOceanify]

great job!!!

[schackercrack]

[Somone23]

this is beyond a 5.

[pimpsauce57]

Mad respect to you, man. That was awesometastic.

[Tom475475]

[BlastedByALazer]

Dude your band is amazing and i love this song and you covered it perfectly :)

[colin10987]

Damn dude, absolutely ridiculous. I'm pumped for Something to Look At too, i was nervous about adding vocals but they work perfectly in my opinion. Good luck, I hope everything works out for you guys.

[mooger32]

wow dude...youtube is like wikipedia, i have no idea where i started but glad i ended on your video - you rock! wish you were my drummer hah

[ronoman88]

very good

[ARDrumr]

rly good job dude

[omfgchapstick]

Holy shit, you and your band are AMAZING. I expected boring garage-band quality songs, but you blew me away. Damn. I hope you don't forget your YouTube days when you're famous :P it won't be long until you guys are discovered.

[dotytanner]

wow dude, i was searching up mathrock drum covers and found this, and im already friends with your band on msyapce. and i've always loved them, you can definalty go far with them

-peace

[cohenmkarnell]

wow thanks a lot dude

[muthauzem]

BTW... I liked your band. It reminds me so much of The Fall of Troy! Good Stuff

[muthauzem]

OMG!!! I wasn't specting not even half of it... You've made it perfectly.

[metalman920]

PUSS!!!

[radarada308]

this is amazing your such a good drummer it retarded. im tryin my damn hardest to learn this song...im no where near close :P

[meghannnnRAW]

this is my favorite song by this band.

and you nailed everything.

very good.

[joegrilloiscute]

awesome job

[seekandestroy89]

Fuck yea. You nailed it. Love this band and song...great job man.

[AHarris128]

Good job, man!

What size sticks are those?

[cohenmkarnell]

5A i think? not positive... most of the sticks i buy are the ones with factory errors, because they're so cheap.

[firetruckgreen]

Wow man... I saw maps and atlases about a week ago and they blew me away so when I saw a drum cover of it I was sure it was gonna suck...

I was way wrong... You're effing good kid.

[arcticBasss]

Bloody good; i think i'm gonna watch it again,...

[AQotgg]

effing SOLID

[AEFic]

Kickass, dude. Chris Hainey's one of my favorite drummers. Have you ever heard of the band Chavez? Their drummer, James Lo, is amazing.

[trevize6767]

nice

surprisingly...

[TheirThereTheyre]

So Good,

Keep it up !

[toddc182]

nice man. I am a die-hard maps and atlases fan (well, who isn't?) and a drummer -- you did this song damn near spot on. I'm not even going back in the comment pages to read the hatred you might be receiving, so, WELL DONE.

[LHondrums]

haha in your describtion i thought i'd read sth like "i know this song sucks, i did it for fun and just the fuck of it.. and i know i'm not that good."

but no. you're complety convinced of your playing AND you insult one of the greatest drummers of all time who's bigger then you and your pathetic future you!

[poketheduck]

are you playing a gretsch club mod?

i couldnt really tell, but it kind of looks like one, the $500 model?

[TumTum21x]

Great drumming sir. Even better band to choose from! Keep at it :)

[tomwootton350]

not bad AT ALL man!

fun song to play along to, spot on : )

[7thToNone]

Lmao all these people insulting you are pathetic. Bashing you because you have a different music taste, they just need to grow up and realize that you, yourself have talent. Great drumming by the way. Maps & Altases are a good band, nice pick for a cover. =P

[tools010]

What a brain you have my dude.

[vandal640]

good shit...rolls need some work but the foot work is spot on....sorry all of youtube is bashing u becuz they listen to fucking dream theatre..maps are my jam

[ryansharia]

man that was amazing...even took the time to learn the notes he used in the vibraphone part..

[GirlieSk8ter]

all u guys who post bad things about him suck! haterz.... i really think u did amazing! i wud love u to be a drummer in my band if i had 1 :)

[dragonforce005]

Not!!!!!!!!!! you suck.

[dragonforce005]

man pretty good video dude.

[portnoyfan08]

na, he sucks!!

[ashescreams]

Then I say fuck those dudes. Your technique is amazing. Me and my buddy wager you'll be an amazing percussionist some day.

[cohenmkarnell]

lol thanks. my feelings aren't too hurt by people with "portnoy" and "dragonforce" in their sns, but they're really getting off on checking my profile every 3 hours, so i don't mind.

[ohshutit8]

Oh ur just a little pussy, and you are clearly hurt bc you dont do anything but bitch about it.

[ashescreams]

Why the fuck are you getting hate? This video is great.

[portnoyrocks22]

man yall let up on him dudes, he has got to all ready know he is a faggot by now, come on!!

[rubout6]

Just bc he is very skinny and looks gay dont mean he is, i think you might be comparing him with this gay music, let me listen to it again.

[rubout6]

Ok ur right hes gay!

[portnoyfan08]

the point is that this little fag boy made a comment about Mike Portnoy and said he could play Mikes parts with ease and has yet to do so. so amberskylane get the facts rite b4 you run your mouth!!

[cohenmkarnell]

lol i'm not posting the vid of me playing mikes parts, because if i did you would just call me a fag and point out inaccuracies that weren't there. i feel no remorse about not feeding the trolls, since everyone without "portnoy" in their sn (or youtube friends with you) disagrees with you whole-heartedly.

[portnoyfan08]

yeah you have remorse or you wouldnt be commenting back. and you arent playing the parts cause you cant.. and ive been reading the comments people have made about the comment you made. ha ha!! your not the winner here your the looser. YOU DIDNT BACK YOUR COMMENT!!!!!! cause you CANT!!!!

[cohenmkarnell]

lol uhuh.

[portnoyfan08]

yeah I think its funny to how you are such a retard to make a comment like that, and then go around saying , oh im ganna play it, im ganna play it I just got to get some more drums together. What a moron. I know what happend you tried to play it and couldnt. ha ha !!! uhuh lol huhu!! you are such an idiot.

[AmberSkyLane]

Wow...this is making me feel a lot less inclined to listen to Dream Theater. I feel like people who act like that for any band are hurting the band they like more than helping it.

PS - Love Maps and Atlases. Good guys. Met them in San Diego.

[portnoyfan08]

yeah man Dream Theater will just vanish now because of the comments portnoypunk left, ha ha!! what a tard. dude no body cares what you think so shut yo pie hole.

[AmberSkyLane]

Yes. Thats exactly what I said. "They will vanish." Hope you're catching onto the sarcasm.

Grow up man.

And people do care what I think. In fact, I have a decent following. And unlike you, people actually know that I'm a musician. Post a video. Also, try to use logic in your arguments.

And yes, I knew the facts. Just shrug off the fact that some kid made fun of your idol.

[portnoyfan08]

No, Dream Theater will not vanish.

No, no body cares what you think.

No, you dont know the facts, if you did you would know that some little prik like him cant play like the best drummer in the world with two years of experience. so shut up man aint no body said nothin to ya BOY!!!

[essentialfaris]

you guys have really nothing to do but give this GOOD drummer shit...it's a sad world.

[ohshutit8]

AH! who ask you dick head.

[dogsoncats]

i listened to ur band

find a dave davison and you guys will be big lol

[portnoypunk]

yeah they suck dont they.

[dogsoncats]

2 16 to end of the vid

[redheadguy719]

[chopperman2005]
