  • he's practically flawless at drums

  • hes awesome dude! fuck yea i love the whole band!

  • As a drummer, from my point of view, I really don't care about his footwork for 70% of the song. Worst angle ever

  • está buena la ventilación xD

    

  • Pearl Vinnie Paul 14x8 snare?

  • matt has pure talent.. :D

  • Anyone know what pedals he's using?

  • @zzyzxDUFFY dw 9000 :)

  • "Pray for Plagues" was the first BMTH song I've ever heard. After listening to the drums I was sold. Being a drummer myself matt has defiantly inspired me and brought more of my drumming style out which is metal so thanks Matt ;D

  • Can anyone tell what pedal he's using?

  • @bored66213 Looks like a DW 9000.

  • Love the acrylic drumkit!

  • Matt Nichols is a epic drummer he looks like he's not even trying he's that good :P

  • Do you know what that crash is on his right? I know it's some for of K, maybe custom or a crash ride?

    Thanks! You lucky Matt Nichiolls-knowing b****** :P

  • @SliverBandUK its a 20' K Crash/Ride

  • Matt Nichols is amazing. I wish the video went further into Diamonds Aren't Forever; that was the first BMTH song I ever heard.

  • nice set dude

  • Unreal drummer

  • matt is so underrated

  • matt is one of my best influences on drums

  • If I could just meet him GOD DAMNIT!!

  • and also what song is he playing in the intro or is this chelsea smile

  • @tamakit123 the comedown

    

  • does anyone know what pedals he's using?

  • @mtsdrummer DW 9000 ;- )

    

  • @RespectNOAuthority1 well idk man everyone is different some play to a track some don't

  • its true he is not the greatest drum ever but neither was ringo star... and he wrote what was relivent to the beatles. this awsome dude is just doing the exact same thing but a good few years later

  • Comment removed

  • is there a metronome by some odd chance? thought i heard a click in while he was hitting the china in the beginning

  • Seriously one of the best drummers out there right now in my opinion. Such a great and diverse style

  • I have the same shoes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Saw them 2days ago! Fucking love Matt!

  • not only does he play drums great.. He plays drums for BMTH!!

  • he's a brilliant drummer and everything, just in this video it sounds like he's speeding up a lot when it gets to the more demanding double-pedal stuff

  • What synth/trigger pad is he using?

  • @Captaincorez Roland Spd-S

  • @didiblanch Thanks buddie

  • i did not post this video for negative comments.. matt is a friend of mine and your comment will be checked. for everyone who has posted nice comments thank you.

  • @AndyClementsDrummer i would be so honored to have matt as a friend ahah, possibly the most biggest influence on my drumming and the style i play

  • @AndyClementsDrummer your friend? that's so awesome! i love bmth, awesome band!

  • @AndyClementsDrummer

    I've personally enjoyed his earlier drum work on BMTH album "This is what the edge of your seat was made for". He's a constant inspiration for when I need some to play metal music

  • I don't see how Matt can be called average, the amount of people that would kill to be half as good as him is insane. Especially his footwork, it's so tight!

  • good band and all i just hate oli sykes. his voice is so terrible

  • You guys have to get off Adam Gray's and and Matt Greiner's nuts. This drummer is good. And I don't even like BMTH. Just because he's not an ape swinging his arms all over the drum set doesn't mean he's not good.

  • to all drummers/throne masters out there, what's the spill on the snare this dude's using? it's my preferred crisp sounding snare. or is it just the way its been mic'd or sound captured by the video. any advice/comments/violent reactions? haha! peace, love, and good vibes y'all! :)

  • He can play the drums yes. Will I ever watch this guy ever again?...no...average drummer!

  • @Doubledacious i dont care about he is an average drummer or not . i like the music and the style he is playing and thats all

  • @Doubledacious LOLL does the average drummer get sponsored by Zildjian?

  • @xEverAfter So I spose every drummer that has an endorsement is an awesome drummer by default??.....In many cases this is true but drum affiliated companies are going to endorse artists that will get exposure. BMTH are a massive band with dedicated fans as you have quite clearly demonstrated but as technical ability goes this guy is nothing special. I'm not knocking him as at least he is not playing in a commercial piece of shit band. Check out Matt Halpern or Matt Greiner and get back to me x

  • @Doubledacious Zildjian doesn't need to sign off random drummers in big bands cuz they're already a very widely known and respected company; they sign people who've got skill and that's one of the things this guy's got a lot of. and how did i show i'm a dedicated fan of bmth? i just know some background on mat -__- and fyi: i just started listening to these guys today cuz their song "blessed with a curse" was on a CD i got at warped tour and i liked it. Go check out Questlove and get back to me.

  • Comment removed

  • Zildjian are a widely known and respected cymbal company as they make good cymbals but also have a clear corporate direction with who they endorse to get more exposure. David Beckham is not the world's best footballer but he generates more revenue then most players as he is a very marketable brand...it makes sense for companies to use him as it will ultimately get them more money which is of course what business is all about. Glad you liked the warped tour but this guy is average!

  • @Doubledacious aight man, i'll respect your oppinion. after all, zildjian did sign travis barker, so i get what you're sayin xD LOL much love to blink 182 tho

  • @Doubledacious Haha how do you know he shows all of his ability? did you ever think that he might just enjoy playing what he plays?

  • @Doubledacious It's true that he doesn't play so fast or complex than another drummers out there...but composing drums for bmth songs he's a fucking genious!!

  • @kroak666 lol it is complex...There is not that much of structure in his drumming..(not nessecerly bad) just hard to cover..so it is pretty complex..

    Maybe you mean his techniques or something

  • @kroak666 Agreed. Very Much Agreed.

  • @Doubledacious it's REALLY really tight. That's not average.

  • @Doubledacious AVERAGE DRUMMER? WHAT FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

  • @Doubledacious average drummer, do u have drumming talent?

  • @ZeTugz my thoughts exactly

  • @ZeTugz if he was average dude he wouldn't make it far dude

  • @tamakit123 i didnt say he was average. i said average drummer? like as a question, then i made fun of the idiot that said he was LOL

  • @Doubledacious your an idiot

  • @xXEzYmOnEyXx Really??? Are you serious??

  • Matt Greiner <3 Adam Gray <3

  • WHAT A WANKER!

  • they suckk!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • @ramonbunny69 Your username suck !!!

  • @Havg75 Your the one too talk!

  • he's just a bog standard metal drummer, technique is awful, barely any fills or pedal patterns that I would consider complex or technical, he's just a pretty good metal drummer. Comparing him to Krimh is just fucking stupid, sorry you're a retard for even thinking that xD Krimh actually know something about drums

  • @MrLioncash Who cares about complex stuff. Are you dumb? Krimh is a fucking robot. No emotion at all. Emotion and passion is the way to go.

  • @TLJCBFH Are you fucking kidding me? Don't get me wrong i'm a fucking insane BMTH fan, but Krimh is a better drummer than Matt. You can deny it, but if you do, your an idiot.

  • @JOEYJORDlS0N Cant you read? I didnt say anything about Matt been a better drummer. Krimh is better. BUT as I said, Hes a robot and boring.

  • @TLJCBFH More or less, Matt acts the same as Krimh live.

  • Crashes ?

  • BEST BAND EVER!!!!

  • @damon184 DW 9002 :)

  • @damon184 dw 9000

  • justin bieber super noob very noob noob super easy very easy easy normal difficult hard insane vitek krimh MATT NICHOLLS
  • @AdelainaLovesMe you CANT COMPARE MATT TO KRIMH OR VITEK! THAT;S JUST RIDICULOUS!

  • try and cover this cobus, also wat song is this?

  • vinnie paul snare ?

  • drums for "the comedown" haha. id know those drums anywhereee haha. thats like one of my favorite songs by thm cus the breakdown that matt nicholls does in the beggining of this video :P

  • iv just realised he uses a pretty small Bass drum. looks as if its a 18" to a 20".

  • @breatheeasy94 it's 20x20 but even so that aint small at all. average rock drummers tend for 18x18, however thats average and so above that aint gonna be exactly small.Heavy fucks to carry

  • @IJayCee101 yeah i know. after i watched this i looked it up. i understand tho, its more portable, and most kits in bands such as these get mic'd up.

    the norm for bands with drummer they usually use a 22" to 24" bass. same tom set up tho.

    He removed hes ride too. he had a bell ride for a while then just got a 7" bell. (:

  • @breatheeasy94 i am aware of that but the oly reason for sum drummrs goin bigger, giggydy, is becuz they want more low end, where ive tested 18x18 and 24x24 in this clear acrylic, wont say full thing so no1 copys my kit :p , and they sound exactly the same, but the smaller 18 is better as its easier to play as the air from batter to resonance back to batter is quicker and so gives firmer and stiffer batter skin, and can have toms lower down, or deeper, much better imo, and easier transportation

  • Why the fuck isn't there a 2:50 !!

  • where can i get his drum set?

  • @SexualxSin i wud tell you but i dont want everyone to get my kit, afterall if everyone has it it takes away the specialness of it. Makes it mainstream

  • @IJayCee101 thats true, respect

  • @niqitoa7x Im aware.. I still know what im capable of though... and if i sat down behind a set i could probly learn this song front to back note for note within a week or two...

  • @xBELIEVERx928 u aint a muscian, ur a cunt, thats what u r, now piss the fuck off, u are not capable of anything other then suckin dick, by sayin that u can do something which he has only been drumming for 3years, actuallly shut up and get a life, i personally can play this, yh didnt take long however he has made the beats from scratch and has put them to a hard genre, its easy copyin, try makin something, can tell at school u were that kid who copied and learnt nothing

  • i could watch the whole set from back here. total homo.

  • lol

  • vans. best drumming shoes ever!

  • @niqitoa7x Okay... I like this band... But this video is proof of how sloppy this kid is. I dont even play drums and i can play what hes playing. Im not asking for technical drums, he just needs to clean up what he's doing.

    Blake Richardson - Recording Obfuscation <---- Youtube search that.

    Thats fucking good... Not this shit.

  • @xBELIEVERx928 r u a comedian or just a prick?

  • @IJayCee101 Im just a regular musician that can tell the difference between good ones and bad ones thank you.

  • @xBELIEVERx928 Nice comeback xx

  • lousy drummer!

  • @kertwc hi troll, bye troll

  • @IJayCee101 fuck you troll!!

  • @kertwc am i a troll or r u the troll, he anit a lousy drummer, to et to where he is in 3years is unbeliveable, and also the nicest lookin kit makes it better, like to see u do it before commnting, byeeezzz xoxoxo

  • @kertwc Nice come back xx

  • Uhhhh.... Fucking sloppy.

    Honestly if they got a better drummer i think the band would be a hundred times better.

  • The Comedown. Great song

  • Where can  i buy those shoes?

  • @KastreraDkatt they are vans era's

  • @AchinForBacon Thanks dude, appreciate it

  • awesome drummer

  • Dude thats so great =P

  • try hard

  • What kind of cymbal is that splashthingy unter the right crash and above the bell? Anyone?

  • @kingatreyu its a splash

  • i love the vinnie paul snare!!

  • @improfessoradam yeah man shot straight of my iphone.

  • was this just shot on ur iphone?

  • honestly, one of the best drummers, in my opinion.

    i try and copy his technique:D

  • @hannahbennannah you shouldnt copy other people technique make it your own no drummer got famous by copying someone

  • @improfessoradam alright, chill

  • @hannahbennannah just sayin

  • What kind of drums are those? Can someone tell me the set up he has?

  • @SONYElectronic Truth drums.

  • @halfandhalf02 I think there actually SJC

  • @halfandhalf02 Truth Drums WTF?!?! r u actually a fuckin retard, don't comment if u don't know

  • @IJayCee101 It's a custom SJC set. Sorry haha.

  • @halfandhalf02 Better ;) haha lol

  • @SONYElectronic The drums hes using in this video are SJC Custom Drums bro, I know because on the SJC website they even had his kit advertised as one of the customs they did for him.

    -J

  • VANS FTW ;D

  • @niqitoa7x its this electro kit sort of thing

  • Not gonna lie, i watch this like every day.. He's my idol and i love playing/learning BMTH songs. Just saying.

  • @DropDeadKalvin Fuck..so do i lol. I need to be doing that one day, not sat in an office.

  • @niqitoa7x it is a Roland SPDS sampling pad that has matts intro's stored in to it.

  • @AndyClementsDrummer How exactly does it work?

  • @iSquishMoths Hey bro! what ever music program they are using, he could program a sample he/they wanna use through the music software while its connected to the sample pad, and he can then also edit how long he wants the sample to last for, how hard he has to hit the pad to be able to get the sample to play or how soft he hits it e.t.c.

  • @niqitoa7x the shacking pedal is from the left foot not from the right.the right was kicking !

  • Nice carpet

  • alot of people say his style is sloppy but i say its good

  • Matt is an amazing drumer & crazy as fuck person ! love that dude ! :)

  • I have those vans haha! they're hemp =)

  • I wonder how he can do most of the things he do with one foot, it's completely savage.

  • I think I speak for everyone when i say there should be a lot more of these videos :D

  • mmm double bass

  • The comedown :)

  • @IXAMXDIFFYX and Chelsea smile

  • i could watch the whole set from back here. No homo.

  • AMAZING !

  • Matt is great
