Megadeth - Holy Wars - Drum Cover

[LibertyCityMayhem95]

Very nicely done, not many people can get it that close to the great and all powerful Menza haha :P

[azteka132446]

hey man if the song did not score the throw-in could happen to me and greetings

[GunsNSnakepits]

Man, I can play this song on guitar, but how people can play drums is WAY beyond me. I could never do this.

[Ignastika]

Clutch high hat

[joshuapb320]

[Killianclanton]

[sush130696]

[shredasaurousrex]

@j3090 hasnt gotten laid once i bet... 

[raz0rcarich99]

@shredasaurousrex That's what you think because you're 12 year old and got no clue...

[rockstarrider3able]

what is up with the hi-hats or is it just the top hat

[basslovak]

You're playing it easy way but still nice

[homer0383]

I love drumms. I drum. I'm two years old.

[gofuckyourselfJon]

can you plz do a cover of OF MICE AND MEN by megadeth

[hkreal38]

I didn't know Jesus played drums?

[OddManOut13]

awesome cover man, but your top toms and the cymbals look unstable. I swore it was going to fall on you at least twice :) oh, and may I ask what cymbal you have tucked under the bottom right side there?

[j3090]

@OddManOut13 thanks! yeah thats a crappy PVC drum rack i made. i recently did away with it though. and that cymbal is a meinl 14" generation x filter china. cheers!

[dashingjavi]

@j3090 dude seriously?, you made that Drum rack?????, i wanna make one too, can you place the camera infront of your kit next time you do a cover, so we can see what i looks like?:D that'd be awesome!, i know this might already too much asking for, but can your next cover be Rust in Peace... Polaris? :S, thanks dude, you're awesome! :D

[mattman8110]

@OddManOut13 ya ur right it looks they r going to tip over

[Al3x465]

why did someone dislike this, i think this song and drum cover are awesome, nice tune to the drums too

[canadaliansockey75]

Great!

[n0usernameforme]

4:59 ohh my goddd jizzzzzzzz

[AtaGiacomini]

Heeyy this look like easy...May be I'll try...:)))

[mattnick2630]

I gotta learn how to play to u have like some drum tabs u could pm me?

[PSIKOSKU]

la bateria de holly wars no es asi. hay q sacarse todos los tokes bien. faltan redobles de caja, el charli es el doble de rapido y la pegada ha de ser mas fuerte. pero esta bien.

[Aheavysmoker]

NICE FOOTWORK

[FisherBassist]

Is It Just Me Or Your Kit Is Shaking While You Drum?

Like. Shake Hard!

[CSRbricks]

good job, but the hit hat supposed to be faster than that, :-)

[SEVENSINS101]

Can you tell me what mics your using and what speakers or monitor you use? Ill aprecciate.

[FadeToDrums]

Hey, could you Dyers Eve from Metallica ? Would be really happy to see it !

[Spence233]

Waayyyyy to many dislikes for this video

[alonsocaballero]

[vexless13]

Very awsome dude

[BlindExuicer]

Nice cover!

[Mazur441]

[Koischwarzer]

[Chris4curry]

Sounds awesome dude!! Nice cover awesome talent, rock onnnn duuuudeee hehe.

[ACDCnVlad]

It's impossible to play the part from 1:08 to 1:10 without feel the music ! I play this part exacly like you. I mvoe my head in all senses!!! Perfect cover

[Atthegates11]

You're a Beast!!! xD

[bergAgreb]

One of the best covers i've ever heard.

I'd love it if you cover The conjuring.

[Tittiefucker420]

your nickname should be sloppy feet.

[Megadickman21]

Loose. You're symbols a little but that hardcore good man I am you're fan!!:)

[estivenrex18]

i think hi-hat goes faster

[laesponjaloca123]

Is...out of time? Just a bit

[KISSAceGenePaulPete1]

Great cover. But, you gotta go faster on hi hat hits. Nick plays them fastttttt

[blinkaloo]

im just curious, how much did all those fucking cymbals cost you

[Alienkungfumaster]

I'd like to see a second cam of your footwork, it'll make the haters hate you more and the lovers love you more.

[Campante10]

its funny because the moment you said you missed a snare roll, i didn't see anything wrong! oh well, i'm such a noob

[wiirocksps3sucks]

Justin Beeber made 50 accounts on Youtube just to dislike this video.

[bergAgreb]

@wiirocksps3sucks

HAHAHAHHA SO FUNNY AND ORIGINAL AHAHAHAHHA

[chingarsito]

[sichi11]

[Bookster343]

[0011philboy]

[PsychoScarecrow]

[strikeout1991]

"SputniksArmy" army is a troll you fuckin' dumbasses!!

Don't feed the troll!

[DannyBoy9932]

Sorry I know this is a stupid comment but I am a major drum n00b: do you have a bass pedal on both of your feet to enable you to drum that fast?

[j3090]

@DannyBoy9932 yes i have a double bass pedal

[robodubbel]

@DannyBoy9932 it's not a stupid comment, it's very funny hahahahahaha

[JVC7400]

a message to the meinl HCS 16" crash: FUCK YOU!

I just hated my 16" hcs :-(

[TheMetalhead52]

[mtrobee]

[RottMetal]

[HHSLeprechaun2013]

NICE! Better than I could do... I mean, I'm a guitarist but still... lol great cover

[PPanzerr]

Your snare sounds amazing... please tell me what kind of snare, what heads and tuning

[IMasterFiveMagics]

Awesome vid!

[rakyaband]

Why the hate on this Video?? dude this Cover totally rocked!! very on time and every detail covered, greetings from Mexico man you did it quite right dont listen to the haters

[KISSAceGenePaulPete1]

Nice cover. But your a little non- energetic on drums. Sorry to say. And you need more hi-hat. But I understand cuz it is Nick Menza of course :D

[GNRblack]

really awesome

the best drum cver i have see in youtube

[provtkiller]

i'd touch my self to this song thts how good it is but you just make it so much better

[1827364590]

oh god fucking awsome



[SometimesHearABoom]

Oouh yeah ! Very good cover !

Greetings from SHB ! ;D

[Xardian7]

Great job! The beautiful thing is that you are not serius while playing! You play cause you like it! and is that the only way to play really well! really great job!!

[98dethklok]

dude nice cover Its sick

[mutran8]

Besides from totally messing the Hi Hats, good cover, just masturbate with your right hand more and you'll get the Hi Hats at the right speed.

[j3090]

@mutran8 thats it! i get laid too much cause i listen to megadeth, my right arm is getting weak haha thanks man

[HaloIsForScrubzzz]

@j3090 haha hella funny bro

[viljuska229]

@mutran8 epic comment xD

[dgcayer]

@mutran8 stupid comment.

I'd jam with you anyday j3090..you're awesome, keep up the good work! :D

[liamgdoherty]

@mutran8 Oh, that's why I'm so good with the hi hats...

[ardoszafagina]

Great drumming!!!! Nick menza!! lol but you really did it great!! i hope someday i play the drums like you

[MetalMalitia96]

is that a repaired splash in the middle?

[j3090]

@MetalMalitia96 haha no its a destroyed splash

[Joerules08]

Dave Mustaine cannot sing

[spidermagic]

Snare needs more head. Good job.

[yimbel]

just good . be more simple man

[deportivozorro]

amazing ending lolololol!

[Masterrese]

that snare sounds fucking awful

[23igna]

show more feeling man!! looks like you don't want to play 

[lvf91265]

not 2 bad ...at least he has his drums tuned right...a hell of alot better than i herd on youtube all tinie sounding...keep @ it...and dont worry about the critics on here ...they don't even play...from 1 drummer 2 another it wase'nt bad this is a hard song to get right!

[49bug]

hey man that was bad ass!!!!! im jellos n ur gonna be a great drumer keep it up

[TheHeadHunter824]

You played it better than most covers of it out there in YT , one criticism is work on momentum/timing rather than just playing all the beats and fills correctly... You got into it in some parts more than others... You seem a bit stiff in posture and overall body motion... Great cover , great !!!

[TheQwerty01]

you dont even play it right

[peilu4]

haha duuude you rockk.

[PearlJammer07]

Those of you dissing this guy probably cannot even play drums. Get a life and learn to play an instrument you goons. Good cover man. Do not listen to these jealous haters. Megadeth drummers to play with a technical style. Lars has stayed pretty much the same through out Metallicas career. Same with MD guitarists. They are more technical man Metallica will ever be. I like both bands though.

[Mome34]

u need that fourth tom dude!

[MrEive]

dude, u pwn!  keep up like that! :)

[hamartime17]

DUDE. I love it man, makes me wanna get my guitar out and play this. 5/5

[j3090]

@yube maybe you should play another instrument besides the skin flute

[SamGHLR]

@j3090 LMAOOOOO you owned him

[metallicaholic1011]

@j3090 I think they both are great and have great music. New and Old.

[Leichestein]

@j3090 LOL ah that was funny i literally lol'd xD

[That70sShowRocker73]

@j3090 you're great it's just that the basic rhythm is wrong O.O I like playing that way in general but the speed is more fit for thrash metal XD aside from that good cover....

[xVxGuitarx]

@yube

lol you dont know what is great!

[giglfoosm]

@yube go fuck urself

[sorvig25]

@yube you must be fucking blind and def to think this guy sucks... this is a great cover... go fall in a hole somewhere and rott

[PSCMYV]

@yube You fail at at life if you think this guy sucks, seriously, if you can't do any better, don't diss 'em. In my opinion, put up or shut up....you skin flute playing failure of life.

[Angelious0]

great drum cover on a great song man

[brandon9271]

awesome! You should cover some Mastodon!  :)

[dothedamher]

NICE!

Fucking sick set man!

[frindle8]

The hi hat is faster. And try to play more powerful, your only doing a MEGADETH cover. Hahaha. Nice cover though

[drummersabu]

close enough.

cheers man!

[jmulcahy318]

the hi hats are twice that speed

[motorbreath1983]

If i were good as this i'd go wild and out of mind.

[osckariinn]

nice job i like it!! its no the most perfect cover but is great!

[feofield]

didn't even notice the lack of snare roll,you fellas make it look it easy,i'm a guitarist,ultimate respect for you guys,nice 1 dude........

[feofield]

Didn't even notice the lack of snare roll,you fellas make it look easy,i'm a guitarist,ultimate respect for you guys,nice 1 dude.............

[logamberat271]

nice dude

[lilmeffle]

Good cover man, I really liked it, but one thing(I could be wrong here), but it looked like at some parts you were just completely bored out of your mind. Maybe you were tired idk, just noticed that though unless I'm the only one who's going to notice it and look like an ass haha. Anyways, great cover, glad you did it.

[Asharpshooter96]

Dude great job you did awesome

[88MapeX88]

wow, out of most of ur songs, thats the best, u pretty much nailed it there, good job

wat brand drums?

[maradomarado10]

Dude, that kicks ASSS!

[big4lego]

en vivo se ve mas dificil

[jezbball]

the fill at 0:20 i dont think thats how its played but otherwise pretty good

[levenorion]

i dont get the whole, im going to make a video of a cover song, what is the point?skills?its a cover!!

[double0three]

I'm guessing you're way better at drums then and can play this with your eyes closed?

[giglfoosm]

playin with ur eyes closed isnt hard if ur used to the drum set, nd u know where evrything is

[P3rvySage]

look up cobus on youtube. that guy got so much fame for his covers he was given a free drumset, free recording equipment, and was endorsed by some companies. the point is to make an enjoyable video, show off your skills, and have fun.

[jabed112]

is there supposde to be a ghost note in the intro beat?plzs plzs plzs reply i need to know

[DrivenBlack]

thats not how the double bass drum is supposed to go

[KonaStyle2003]

Nick Menza FTW

[oStAnEo]

ur great man! keep up!! 5/5!!

[xi0wnallx]

gar samuelson was better then nick but this is amazing shit right here i love that slower riff

[poohdubs3]

gar dident have shit on nick, all gar did was abuse the double bass and hit the ride and snare at the same time on most of the songs on Peace sells...but whos buying. Menza will blow his ass away

[xi0wnallx]

@poohdubs3 im sorry but i dont agree with u

[jcl92]

@poohdubs3 naw dude thats too much gar was an awsome drummer im not saying either one was better but gar wasnt only about double bass listen to good mourning black friday or bad omen and then see if thats wat he was really about

[mickelboy182]

@poohdubs3

Do you have any clue about drumming? Gar was an amazing drummer and his jazzy influences certainly showed.

Check out the tracks for 'My Last Words' and 'Good Mourning/Black Friday'..... Beastly drumming. Not to mention the fact that Mustaine actually taught Nick how to play the tracks of Five Magics and Polaris, to name a few.

Seriously though, are you talking about the right Gar Samuelson?

[poohdubs3]

@mickelboy182 yes i am, because nick menza destroys all

[mickelboy182]

@poohdubs3

Solid argument

/sarcasm

[poohdubs3]

@mickelboy182

stop your bitching, gar is a good drummer, but i think menza is better, there and u can have an opinion too

[mickelboy182]

@poohdubs3

Sure you can have an opinion, but I just can't respect an opinion of 'Gar doesn't have shit on Nick' with no logic provided.

Not to mention you outted yourself as someone with no idea when you said 'All Gar did was abuse double bass and ride"

If you want people to respect your opinion, don't reveal your lack of knowledge on the subject within two sentences.

[poohdubs3]

@mickelboy182 well its hard to explain in words what i meant, its alot easy if i show someone what im talking about on the drums, but nvm, lets just end this stupid argument and continue to like megadeth

[worldofurin]

@poohdubs3 RIP gar

[MetalHeadFilipeG96]

@poohdubs3

i agree that Nick is their best drummer of all, but after him comes Gar, he was an awesome drummer too RIP Gar Samuelson

[DoNOTCLICKPLEASEE]

@poohdubs3

Listen to gar on killing is my business. You'll definitely change your opinion.

[MrPolterghost]

@poohdubs3

Nah man, Gar did some good shit...Listen to the drum only tracks on some of the Peace Sells songs, Good Mourning and Bad Omen come to mind. Not saying he's better than Menza, just saying he did alot more than you give him credit for. I Personally like him more than Menza, but Menza is fucking amazing too

[TheProwower]

I love how clear we can hear your bass drum

[shinypkmn]

Cant wait till i get my drums oh yeah haha ur awesome dude

[jonrock757]

That's just brilliant! Love the skills man!

[xxMonsterGuitarxx]

finally! i've been waiting long for someone to completely obliterate this song on drums fuck yea keep it up

[Premdus]

You realy help me with that song man... thx very much

[vidicles]

and true what you say about one of the best songs ever written

[vidicles]

[citrugby]

[aguilarfarid]

[belekek]

[jcroldan89]

[zuma5278255424]

What's that above his hi-hat? and whats the one beside that?

[SpaceSPS]

2:20 what china is that?

[l1m0]

how long have been you playing? (sry for my english)

[camelwide888]

@l1m0 you said it right bro, now worries!"

[camelwide888]

HAHAHA no worries, I mean

[dapik5]

yeah the hi-hat is double the speed you played it during the intro bit
