  • WTF IS THAT

  • Awesome!!

  • great cover =)

    

  • could you cover some darkest of the hillside thickets song?

  • Tight but you miss quite a lot of hi-hat foot pedal action, especially during the 4:09 -> 4:38 section, and then the fill going into the "take us away from hell" has hi-hat foot 'chicks' played in between the base drum notes. Other than that, very tight and nice playing

  • jesus, i want that super frankenstein-like keyboard that matt haves, and so far the best cover for this song

  • Tight but you miss quite a lot of hi-hat foot pedal action, especially during the 4:09 -> 4:38 section, and then the fill going into the "take us away from hell" has hi-hat foot 'chicks' played in between the base drum notes. Other than that, very tight and nice playing

  • @feewert42 Dude, 1 - he is using mics, 2 - Good Heads - 3 - And most important - Good Tuning.

    Do you know how to tune properly our toms?

  • @AAXDrums ........ no ):

  • @feewert42 Yes.... only if the have a realy good ear.

  • are you using any effects, plugins, and or rackmounts for your tom sounds?

  • is it a shure kit or pearl? cause it sounds awesomly awesome!!

  • @feewert42 DW Collectors

  • your toms.... they are so glorious. i am at a loss for words

  • hi im also drummer and i need to do this song for exam but i dnno where to find the sheet music , could anybody help me?

  • @rivonboy Dude you can play it by hear, it's quite easy

  • @rivonboy learn by ear... or tabs. saves a lot of time if you learn how to do this in the long run,

  • @rivonboy

    Just watch the video. This is thousands ways better than a sheet!

  • @rivonboy dude, just play by ear.

  • @rivonboy Sorry mate but you'll struggle to find an acurate score of this, or infact most sheet music. i think its best to just listen to it and try yor best, coz if you make a mistake or go wrong then you dont realy ona sheet, youll find that it will come more naturaly to you

    . good luck though!

  • @rivonboy there is no better seet music than your ear

  • @Kudan26 and his eyes as well, nothing better than this video to get an idea of difficult parts

  • @karlox2000 but sometimes... just sometimes even when you see the cover... it is still difficult to watch or get all the parts

  • @Kudan26 yuuuup

  • @Kudan26 Sheet music is important though, don't lose sight of that, for any musical instrument and to become a better drummer it is vital.

  • @freeflow18 Ididnt say that its not important but as a musician you should train your ear, I mean, in my case, I can read and write sheet musics, but by ear is faster, and also, speaking of drums, when you look for sheets you find almost all the sheets are wrong, so you make your own ... by ear...

  • Comment removed

  • @freeflow18 Still if the original drummer of a latin song, write and give us the sheet music, it can be used, however not every drummer writes or give their sheets music, I completly agree, playing jazz, latin or even funk is way harder than just rock, and you could need a sheet music, but if it doesn´t exist, you still need to play it, and if you dont have the sheet music, you have to use you ear

  • @Kudan26 I'd say many drummers don't actually write their own sheet music but they would study it through lessons with a teacher or in college, magazines, internet even. I learnt myself through lessons and grades. Reading music is a skill that can't be underestimated. Sure it's more important for piano, guitar, violin etc but it does help to become a top player. If you look at say Vinnie Colauita, one of the all time great drummers, he is a master at reading sheet music on drums.

  • @Kudan26 How does Muse play two separate drum scores?

  • @jijst5 the second drum part is done on playback with the synth and effects for the song

  • @lolfredlolfredlol BTW the accents on the toms toms can be done while doing the main beat... hard, but it is possible

  • @lolfredlolfredlol

    Oh, thanks/;p

  • @rivonboy

    I believe others have missed the point of this question slightly; for most drumming exams the examiner needs a copy of the sheet music so they can, well, examine you on how well you have played the piece.

    In regards to the question, try searching via google for the sheet music.

    If the wost comes to the worst, you have a good visual representation of the piece on this video and you could try and transcribe the drums yourself.

  • @rivonboy i dont know but. if maybe u play it by ear.. maybe you can get some extra marks for your exam.

  • @rivonboy Lol I also had the same thing, I had an exam so I performed this song. I just learnt by ear and got the sheet music so they'd shut up :)

  • @rivonboy i dont think you need the sheets,im a professional drummer,i play over 25 years,just hear the sonng and play what you hear,and good luck :DDDD

  • @rivonboy With this video and your ear it shouldnt be hard to figure out mate.

  • @rivonboy Why sheet music. Just listen to it.

  • sounds great!

    cool song
