[Fridderz]

its actually quite easy when you get the hang of it

[zyzzanasty]

Hi!

[ScottLFC1995]

for

[Kebabeten]

oow i mean 5 lol

[Kebabeten]

If you guyz need to repeat the slow version all the time just press 4 just sayin :P.

[drummerdude1411]

Keep the hi hat going throughout the fill and crash sections

[TheShortSkin525]

such wells



[TheShortSkin525]

Nice sounds of toms

[orsetto90]

first to ask john bonham!!!...however i like!

[Scarf3086]

Thanks for going over this fill!! it's quick O.o but awesome!

[AKamikazeMonk]

I love how on all of his videos people comment about "HUR DUR, PLAY ASSASSIN" when he already did the only part they really want to see nearly two years ago.

[ItalianBandit]

Could you do a slow one for City of Delusion. And i don't mean the "DESTROY THIS CITY" part.... I mean the longer one for the "bridge" i think?

[2opTactics]

how the frig do you know how to do this lol, doms a left handed drummer?

[Chasingastarlight8]

@2opTactics yes, he is <3

[f0inzap]

Nice playing.

But, I wonder if it isn't left hand lead? (for a right handed drummer that is). I might be wrong but I get the feeling it's played like:

s s b, ht lt b, s s b, ht lt b, s s b, ht lt b ht lt b

s=snare ht=hi tom lt = low tom b=bass

[deathrealms]

Your Madagascar poster is so boss. (;

[MrRockstarrr12]

thanks! i have been wanting to play this for ages :)

[pickupthebass1]

@MrRockstarrr12 mole

[roryando]

Right now this is the closest i have to watchin ben powell do this song :)

[flabaman44]

nice poster!!!!

[telsel12]

wow good, goog tanks

[Motorhawk3]

cheers for this bro

[mmehmett]

Who the hell says "i dislike this"?

[mestor2]

You frogot to use the hi-hat after the fill



[krzychogie]

@mestor2 The hi-hat should be played even throughout the fill. I didn't hear it too at first, but you can hear it clearly in the background. Of course after the fill it should be played too

[enrique4d]

@krzychogie you're so right! ;)

[colig54]

Very very nice! This is class. Thanks. Please do more!

[TankP0wnz]

so it's basically all threes?

ssb, ttb, ssb, ttb, ssb, ttb, ttb, s? -s= snare, b=bass, t=tom

[roryando]

@TankP0wnz yup

[MoreThanLuck]

@TankP0wnz Hence "triplet drum fill"

[TheFadeNotts]

@TankP0wnz this comment is more helpful than the video itself

[theairborne145]

@TankP0wnz + hi hat foot

[banto9]

AWESOME

[metaljamzander]

whats the song called at the end plss!!

[xOktavariuMx]

@metaljamzander the song at the end is: A nightmare to remember - Dream Theater

[AboutSelix]

need a double bass pedal for this bro' ?

[ThePurpleDrumStick]

@AboutSelix no, but it sounds even better with a double bass pedal!

[AboutSelix]

@ThePurpleDrumStick So , i will buy a double bass pedal ;D

[MGpriority]

Very nice, although if you listen very carefully it's high to floor, so it would be RL b LR b RL etc....

[blaxspecial]

IM SURE YOUVE GOT THAT WRONG MATE..ITS TOO LONG

[theFMLP]

@blaxspecial play is faster

[albnys]

muse and drums, can it get better?

[landorcolts]

Has anyone else noticed the epic madagascar poster behind the ride

[TheJammyboy1]

can you do the whole song?

[JEB375]

@TheJammyboy1 The full song isn't THAT difficult. People get confused about this fill since many drummers have no knowledge of Bonham triplets. The intro/bridge (the part right before the fill) is without a doubt the hardest part of the song as it requires you to be speedy on the kick.

A common misconception is that drummers such as muse's drummer Howard, Bonham, Grohl and others use double bass pedals when they in fact use a single :)

[kyle241194]

Far out man you are amazing! Just decided i wanna learn it, and i came across this vid! Subscribed and liked! Best drummer on youtube!

[KILLard2000]

What do you use to make your videos?

[Patrickdrums6732]

[gangstadudey]

good job btw!

[gangstadudey]

so, this fill is like bonham triplets, right? just in a pattern moving in the snare to the low and high tom and back and such?

[catman529outdoors]

THANK YOU got to practice and get this down now.

[bobsny02]

Awesome !!!!! Thanks

[myapocalypse32]

Mr Powell the one you play there is a nice alternative fill but it's not the original one. I think the original one goes like this (slow the part down on your media player and you'll notice it) S S K FT RK K S S K FT RK K S S K FT RK K FT RK K S. I did not post this one to correct you or show you anything. Just my opinion.

[renzotec]

i've almost got this sorted. just need to get my speed up a notch. thanks alot for posting this mate. greetings from new zealand :)

[MoreThanLuck]

For those who can't get it-

(K= Kick drum, FT= Floor Tom, RT = Rack Tom)

R L K FT RT K R L K FT RT K R L K FT RT K FT RT K R L

[hheheks]

Song in the end of this video is Dream Theater - A Nightmare to Remember.

[Choille7]

[mch0830]

[MichaelRampage]

Explained very nicely.

What's the song played at the end?

The guitar tone sounds very familiar. But I don't know who it is and it's bugging me..

[jped94]

im pretty sure its snare, high, bass, floor, high bass, instead of snare snare bass, floor high bass

[lickmynipnips]

-Frank

[ALruCA]

[benpowellfforddlas]

Yea Resistance is coming soon :)

[ALruCA]

Can't wait for it! :D

Keep up the good work!

[flexpint]

its easy ;)

[PaulDavidScott]

Dude, you need to do teaching video lessons, you should do fills lessons, id watch em all!

[TCELL24]

wow. that is actually really simple.

[Bubbacritz]

its really hard to keep the 3 feel, i find that i a lot of the time when going fast my bass drum and toms get really muddy, thats only real challenge in it

[TCELL24]

yea true. the pattern itself is very straightforward, but to get the speed and accuracy down is the hard part.

[WhatEver2Be99]

Dom also does high tom-floor tom so sticking becomes rl lr rl lr etcetera

[Bubbacritz]

no he goes floor to high

[zalmiak]

A Nightmare To Remember

just like this drumfill!

[HyperMuser243]

u rock dude

[bolter1010]

Ah awesome! thanks man, i never really quite got this and i have to learn it damn soon.
