Bloc Party - Like Eating Glass Drum Cover

[aquarius3290]

Very good, as always. I really like all your covers =) .

[Teali0]

What ride cymbal are you using?

[randypaysan]

Fucking awesome as always. I've been following you since the Foals videos.

[11par]

Could please tell me the name of the headphone you are using?

[TheMylesDaniel]

Would you mind telling me your entire setup? specs, heads cymbals, etc. or even make an equipment video or something? Thanks.

[bluewater642]

very awesome! one of the best drum covers yet :D

[freeflow18]

Great cover, are they Pro Mark sticks?

[DosSs0807]

Great!

[Biggestmutemathfan]

What ride is that dude, sounds so damn sweet

[Adroitism]

I serously reckon Matt Tong is one of the most unsung heroes of modern drumming out there. He uses a pretty minimal kit compared to metal guys but come out with speed and technicality that is hard to match and hasn't been seen since the old Jazz/Funk drumming days.

[jonboywelch]

Booom!

[RuckusNW]

just subscirbed

[xuanluvahblurr]

You put a big smile on my face!

[ibanezman04]

ohhh this is soo fricking sickk, a great song , a great drum cover!

[gnarlysky]

Crazy technicality on such a simple set up. You, sir -- and Bloc Party -- are amazing.

[k74FF]

definitely the best cover of this song on routine. Awesome drum work, picked a few tips on how to play the fills from you

[xXbspencerXx]

EFFIN AWESOME!!! I hope you do Helicopter as well.

[pumpkinthestrange]

Man you always will be my favorite youtube drummer. Please do some more stuff

[lolh4x]

Callen, you should do a complete Silent Alarm cover like you did with Total Life Forever. That would be amazing.

[anguscole1]

i just dyed my hair to match callens and sat in front of a drum set to see if i could play and no luck keep killin it your the best.

[radzik97]

how long do you play drums?

[dx1118]

hardly any drummer wears pants hahaha

[NoreldinG7]

Bloc Party will be back with a new album in 2012! Looking forward to some awesome covers like usual Callen! :D

[MADhatterPAUL]

Great job :)

[grijwoww]

thumbs up for spitting on 3:56

[sullivan79]

what pedal are you using?

[callen1034]

@sullivan79 DW 9000. Get it. It's amazing.

[Cristalskulle]

@callen1034 I take note ;)

[MateusEstrelaAguiar]

hei buddy, awesome drum cover. Can you tell me your cymbals kit?

[MuseDrumsCovers]

I love your dw 9000.

Do more covers that you use your dw to a hard ritms. xD

[rajivk91]

Matt Tong writes his drum parts like the first drummer ever. True innovation that you've perfectly matched once again.

[spanish4991]

that was magic

[AMAURIS966]

this is fuckin incredible

[marshjizz]

inspirations to gingers everywhere<3

[joedransfield]

Great pedal control, really tight drummer!

[shaneatdublin]

You should really just upload a drum solo video cause that would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

[sammow23]

This is one of the hardest songs to play on the drums I've come across, it took me months to learn! You make it look so easy it's unreal... 10 points to Gryffindor, amazing stuff man

[TheAccount443]

it would be great if he could do the maccabees

[KidsWithGuns1992]

Wow, I haven't watched one of your videos for over six months - and you have improved immensely! It's amazing to see how far you've come, well done, and I'm excited to see more of your new covers.

[Alefthau142]

I got chills

[rael1999]

Still see you're nailing shit down Callen....excellent job, keep the good work up and all the best with whoever you're playing with these days !!

[alejomtz100]

[arcaniser]

[Vilelinhaaa]

[GWadsworth93]

Dude you kick ass, keep up the hard work! It really has paid off!

[2010rollwithit]

My favorite cover of my favorite song of my favorite album of one of my favorite bands. This couldn't be any more precise and accurate to the original song. This is simply amazing.

[jaxash4000]

[VaLife757]

[nobuki1114]

asian kung fu generation

[weedPLUSmeEQUALShigh]

[itsdamikester]

[flyingrhombus]

have you ever thought about doing brand new? or cold war kids?

anyway, you're an amazing drummer.

[MaxClancy]

Christian, this is SO GOOD!!!

[fahlo]

Fantastic. You are so "in the zone".  Keep it up!

[itsrekka]

who could dislike this?

[spacetreaty109]

sorry meant the floor tom and snare are hit together alternating between the high hat hit

[spacetreaty109]

this cover was almost spot on.. only problem i saw was in the first chorus, the floor tom and snare are hit together each time... other then that spot on mate!!

[baldazz]

Cover Nirvana. Breed, Stay Away or Territorial pissings. Please!

[Boblina]

Amazing man. I want a drum set now D:

[ConcreteJungle12]

Matt Tong is insane. I noticed it pretty late, but it's definitely true. Oh, perfect cover by the way!

[SRZYKODLYA]

maravilloso, me encanta bloc party

[joanmesa]

THIS GUY IS YOUTUBLY UNDERRATED!

[blochead555]

inhuman. amazing.

[jakerz96]

Aaron Aaronson

[jcbake]

literally spot on, I reiterate what sammow23's said.

[Anynamewilldodammit]

Wow!!

[Mitchhh464]

Should Cover The Jezabels - Unmarked Helicopters, would be a fun song to play, have a listen man!

[sammow23]

you've done matt tong proud man! Sick cover!

[Fanchus]

My favourite Bloc Party song

[snowcone686]

this is so fucking good, please do helicopter!

[jiffyskip]

you are a drumming magician. definitely going to be famous real quick here kids.

[J17Drums]

Only one thing, there isn't an open hat on the first quaver of every bar of the verse beat. That and a couple of the fills are a bit off but it's still great :)

[SuperSupersonic1988]

top gezza.

[smurfandlemon]

Just when I thought I was good and then I see this...

[sonboygarcia]

u do the best drum covers on youtube. it's such a shame that there's other people out there *ahem* (cobus) that has endorsement deals when it should be you that deserves this. no disrespect to them but your covers are pure, raw, & doesn't involve stupid drum trickeries! love the fact that you only set up what you need for the song. just gets on my nerves to see other "cover" artist on youtube get all this exposure when it should be you that everyone needs to know. thanks for the awesome uploads

[faxxx0]

What kind of protection for your snare is that? how is it called? What does it do ?

[Foals4Life]

HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET SILENT ALARM ON VINYL?! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR IT FOR AGES! I'd love to see you cover Maps & Atlases, drummer's crazy good!

[gsgcj2]

Sick Muse Please!

[diablocow13]

your bloc party covers are AWESOME



[anguscole1]

paladynmusic im trying to put together a youtube project called the come together project linking musicians together from all over the world. its simple all you would have to do is come to my channel andlink up with other musicians and get on cam and do split screen colabs, its that simple, i like you want to see more colabs on Youtube. There is so much talent on youtube its not funny, including callen1034. Lets all come together and make music.

[ReiK96]

@anguscole1 the channels called paladynmusic?

n thats a really goood idea

[nikolap92]

Fake tales of san francisco next, anybody??????

[PornoBruzz]

great, though its not the perfect drumset for this cover

[brainsbattle]

i really think you should do a cover of the first Klaxons' CD, 'Myths of The Near Future'

[ShikariHead]

@brainsbattle gravity's rainbow? ;D

[MrLisztomaniac]

Matt Tong would definitely be proud. No doubt about it. Keep up the good work with new videos,you keep on improving.

[OzcarMtl]

Why aren't you in a band and already famous at 19 like Two Door Cinema Club?! I wish I had your talent, it seems that you are the only ginger with soul besides Alex Trimble... gotta have a soul to play and feel music like you do.

[Abraham3484]

Sick Shirt Dude.

[paladynmusic]

I make and produce all kinds of music, and holy shit you've got some talent. Not exactly sure where you live, but I really wish it was near me cause I'd love to collaborate. Keep doing what you're doing man.

[ratchetdrums]

Wow man, you completely nailed it! Matt Tong is actually my friend's cousin, I met him once at a New Years party and he's a really nice guy. I'm sure he'd appreciate seeing this frankly brilliant cover.

I've got some covers myself you might enjoy checking out on my channel :)

[ModrnDaeArtemis]

wow he really gave this his all. I'm like wow...speechless. It was flawless Christian. <3

[TheHanHyoung]

I thinks he resembles Dominic Howard in Muse :)

[oylatle]

damn. for all this time, i didn't know Callen stood for C. Allen!

[whocaresssss]

killin it dawg

[AleXMdN1]

Lol that diamond golf shirt is something else... Cool video, love the song!

[BriansSecretDoor]

It would be cool if you did a cover of a Dodo's song, possibly Fools ?

[ItsEplus]

i think you should make a video about, your experience of drumming. it would be sick to know a little background about your life. your a beast keep it up!

[joshuahughes34]

like the new format :) i love to play this song but I'm more like 90% accurate haha, i would cover plans from bloc party now :)

[bcsfreitas]

You got fat. Still awesome tho.

[TheEdibleShoe]

What drum kit is that?

[GeorgeDiathesopoulos]

very challenging song i think you could play it better :S

[s3dation]

1:40-1:55 is fucking spot on.

[grahamlong]

Well that, was fucking amazing!

As nothing more than a very good air drummer I have no idea how to achieve this, it looks soooo hard.

You make it look easy as always!

[ThisIsMalarky]

what headphones are you using?

[BradJenii]

Fuck my beard. Incomprehensibly good, not only are you tight as a badgers arse, but you've covered what looks to be one of the most technical drum beats of this genre, very well played sir!

[bench20100]

Any suggestions for a Foster the People cover?? Helena Beat??

[shtfckazz]

Dude do halo! That would be pretty awesome too

[dgarreis]

Great vid. I have been behind in watching you vids just realized you have been posting again. Great to see you jamming!

[stephroxx]

Dude, you are awesome! Seriously!

[awagamgnalaw]

god I love you.

[joejoesrevenge2]

Amazing.

[indieboi21]

Bloc PArty is my all time favorite band. I think no will ever come close to having the same signature style they uniquely created. All the members are well put musicians and even though Kele is such an inspiration there would be no music with out drums and Matt Tong is an exceptional drummer as well as you are fro m doind such a pinpoint cover. Do more BP covers!

[lztrtl2]

COVER STRANGE TIMES BY THE BLACK KEYS YOU'D KILL IT!!!!!!!!!

[Gabugaburere]

greaaaaat!! really awesome, I missed bloc party covers .

[thecelestical]

i sure missed your bloc party covers. awesome, as always.

[crivas12345]

I LOVE YOU FOR MAKING THIS

[MarkoCindric]

LOVE this song. Amazing cover as always.

[SuperTombo69555]

[oemmylou]

really amazing

[rorrie378]

you're just awesome

[crizgear]

awesome man!!! you are great!!!

[Welsonnn1994]

Amazing cover as always!

Do you play that Takamine?

Also, what headphones do you use? Because i really need a pair of headphones that are loud enough/cancel enough sound out to play drums with, good sound quality and at a decent price. Any recommendations? thanks!

[tomogh311]

Ooooh shiny 9000 pedal...

[sharker93]

Anyways, thought you said no more videos when you're in shorts? HAHAHAHA

[sharker93]

Great job as usual Christian! Of course, more Bloc Party would be real awesome! Keep up the great work bro! :D

[ellegreeko]

im suprised you havnt covered this already!!

[Johoth]

Awesome cover man! Could you please do Price of Gasoline and Hunting for Witches from Bloc Party too?

[Gambit1984]

That was awesome. I need some Post Rock drum covers. Please do There Are Some Remedies Worse Than The Disease by This Will Destroy You or Untitled 8 by Sigur Rós. :D

[MarkusGronroos]

please do any cover from 'a different kind of fix' by bbc!

[dolsan27811]

more bloc party please

[bdarling87]

You should do all of silent alarm. It's my favourite album (and it should be yours too)

[thatonekid2442]

This is cool and all, but I would like to see something original, I mean with all that talent I'm sure you can do something that doesn't sound like any other indie band you cover

[dtanobo]

YAY i LOVE bloc party! I hope you get to cover all their songs!

[jakejoe]

absolutely fantastic man, always doing the uk proud... and the us for that matter...

[smile21jonno]

Such a tune by Bloc Party.

[revat619]

This is one my all time favorite albums as well and i play it all the time in my practice sessions too. So im sure you can imagine i was like uber critical when i saw you covered this....DUDE you absolutely NAILED IT! You're awesome! This is hands down your best cover. All of them are good tho! Keep up the killer work! God bless

[henybenyfofeny]

I wish I had as much passion for ANYTHING as you do for your drums. You are truly an inspiration to me and seeing your enthusiasm in your playing makes me want to get better at guitar. Your videos in my sub box always end up making my day better, so keep doing what you're doing because you are brilliant

[JoeyMac2011]

TDCC!!

[superbigga666]

i am the 302 viewer..jealous much?

[JumbaGumba]

Omg ive loved this song for ages, thanks for covering it! good job!

[julubeedog]

[Thisisfitzyfresh]

[2mkTheSpaceAfter]

[AQWpikachu232]

[Chaucer129]

[Rock4lifex51]

No dislikes! thats how it should be!

[skatepalooza]

Ah great song! I remember first hearing this song in Tony Hawk's American Wasteland!

[TheVampfan77]

Yeah you should play What You Know by The Two Door Cinema Club cause that song is bomb as are you man this is an awesome cover.

[luvallrockgenres]

I have been waiting for this cover for a really long time

[Guapogiboy]

I second the two door cinema club request!

[Guapogiboy]

Please keep covering Bloc Party. Something seems off though in the sound on this recording. Did something change? Good job still!

[futb0lista7777777]

MY BIRTHDAY IS SEPT 12 AND IM STILL WAITING FOR "WHAT YOU KNOW" BY TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB. IT WOULD BE THE BEST PRESENT IF YOU COULD DO A VIDEO DEDICATED TO ME <3 NO HOMO

[FeFreitinhas]

My birthday is also Spt 12, and as said by @futb0lista7777777 I would love if you could cover What You Know, or any song by TDCC. :~

[SexyJowdan]
