[Pandanobear]

MiNd FUcK><@*&

[arrogantprickly]

3:49-3:52 is the coolest thing I've ever heard

[Notbabyhead]

[drumdirt]

Utter shit

[Mannnncho1]

Tony is really awesome, but this guitarist makes me nervous. Maybe he should try going out of tune less

[buttonrecords]

@Mannnncho1 I think is interesting "out of tunes" notes 3:21 make me nervous when i listen it for first time. listening carefully, I like it, like a "chile": sometimes hurt..

[EA369]

@Mannnncho1 He's not going out of tune, he's going through passing notes and adding notes outside of the scale. It's common in fusion and jazz =)

[brunosmovies]

@Mannnncho1 he's not out of tune ahahahah just playing in phrygian

[pookomoo]

who the hell dislikes this video... we are watching the best drummer in the world (undisputed) at his best. I can only assume those 13 people were looking for something else



[jrfoganholi]

Damn, you can't have everything....the guy is rich, is famous, play with some superstars, and boy what a drummer...but..he is ugly as hell....

[Iamanoutkast]

So nasty, so clean and under control! @tyronejonez i think tony hands down personally

[TATdrummerJP]

He's just lucky =)

[MrLiamV]

Does anybody else hear an iPhone message sound at 0:55 ?

[tyronejonez]

Spanky vs Tony Royster I would love to see who would win that battle!

[2gasgo]

How fast is Tony?????

[paulosergiofoganholi]

Two guys for play in 4 keyboards and Tony alone can play more than 20 pieces of that drum at the same time.....

[barlos99]

Chuck Norris just shat himself....followed by and open mouthed "WTF......."

[udoodoo27]

wack guitarist

[bboychoc]

@udoodoo27 that was on purpose.....;)

[revjuniorr97]

[bigdombig]

the bass groove at 4:10 is nasty!!!

[riceboy287]

sounds like detective music; detective kimball chasing after the criminal :)

[jmag579]

5:25 are u fucking shitting me?! Fuckin wizard

[MrGeektarist]

Is there emg on the guitar? Oo Why...? WHHHHYYYY? It's not metal!!

[MrGeektarist]

@MrGeektarist And don't tell me it's for shredding, the guitar sound like shit!

[rubberpenguin]

why the fuck is the guitar player playing a neck thru mahogony body guitar with such gain heavy pick ups as EMGz. the mids on those bad boys are making his lead tone sound like ball sacks lol. He needs to switch that bad boy out with a telecaster and put a dimarzio liquifier in it and get some good lead tone flowing.

[thenoodleguy]

please replace that guitarist with tosin abasi

[Raissmo]

@thenoodleguy replace him with a fucking traffic cone for all i care, as long as he just fucks off my screen.

[albdoce]

Tight!



[halocreed12]

i love 6:50

[ForTheWin247]

seen this so many times and it stil blows my mind

[Dethreid]

holy crap that guitar is annoying, the rest is pretty awesome though

[doublethumpbass89]

that guitar during the chorus

"duuuhhhhhhh nuhhhhhh NAHHHHHHH"

hahah so annoying...drumming however is fucking sick

[jonnydrums413]

5:01 "I aint done with you yet"

[nandooobass]

[drummerb0y4life]

6:03 ...left hand insanity 

[Turdburger33]

At 5:25 my snare told me not to bother.

[italia10588]

:24 even Tony clicks sticks while playing, I feel vindicated haha.

[Cmontermini]

dude the song is so ghey. guess virtuosic drummers are destined to play this robot jizz shit.

[TommtheDrummer]

Love how at 5:05, he accidentally knocks that crash, the chokes it like "SHUT THE HELL UP."

[SubwayStar7]

@TommtheDrummer Wasn't an accident. :P

[GarrettMCobbs]

@TommtheDrummer That's called a cymbal choke bro.

[TommtheDrummer]

@GarrettMCobbs Thats what i said bro?

[GarrettMCobbs]

@TommtheDrummer Oh, I know, but my apologies. I forgot to put that it wasn't an accident lol.

[TommtheDrummer]

@GarrettMCobbs Ahh right, makes sense now, id like to think tony made a tiny mistake in his otherwise flawless drumming -.- :L

[RzRw1re]

5:25-5:38 well, I believe there goes my drum career.

[TheGolfdrum]

lol cobus who?

[SoonerAce311]

excellent job tony! just keep inspiring and shreddin' dude!

[angeriod]

[CakeAssGerry]

Tony needs to make some new tracks, he always kills it love this dude, but damn i've heard him play to this song so many times!

[drumbumist]

[Myggannn]

[michaelwootenmusic]

@livinmusic some of the guitarists bends are a little off but hes still incredible as is the rest of the band.

[geo123889]

11 people's idiot's Ah foda-se sei lah se eh assim que escreve ... TOCA DEMAAAAAAAAIS

[danielrsegundo]

Doooooope Music.

[thispagesux]

guitar sounds out of tune

[pachuca326]

wow

[OriginalGansta88]

Wow....that was stupid good!!

[Tim666squared]

Hmmmmm I think I found a new genre of music to listen to this guy was incredible

[MrRCM2011]

That was hot yo I wish I could play that gud!

[MrDrumphantom]

lol it is the weirdest song i've ever heard but it is the most awesome drumming ever

[mylittlestudio]

it s pro, it s everything you want, but for me there s no soul in this...whatever, they have a technical level that few musicians have that s clear...but ...it s empty of emotions.... ( for me )

[nikki09321]

Who is better tony or travis barker

[waynesworld91]

@nikki09321 Hands down tony. That's not even a question.

[jonathanguitar27]

tony is a boss... ASAP is delicious

[BreakItAllXD]

4:11 FIRES IT ALL UP!

[rodolfomoral2011]

esse e o kra sou seu apostolo sou seu fam  mas ainda um dia vc vai ser meu fam escreva isso

isrei tocar com vc esse e meu sonho

[pjunior06]

Amazing shit!! but for some reason that lead guitar is fucken annoying me...just sayin

[bronislaw]

@pjunior06 MAn, SAME HERE! :)

[cbmuzik]

@pjunior06

it's a typical fusion sound he's using. If you go back and listen to a lot of fusion artists you'll here that sound from guitarists. I don't care for it too much, but meh. The band sounded pretty good. lol....

[BedroomBassist]

I don't like the guitar tone.. :( but my god this is awesome on the whole. :)

[DjRiches]

the drum patterns are amazing

[cirquenrzique]

Nothing so great since.............dennis chambers. Here is real drum speaking again with tony, Thank you

[1dudecrush]

its amazing to me how a drummer is the ball of energy in a band, yet also remains the most..chilled out...

[jonasbilharinho]

10 people are deaf...

[julianisdope]

@jonasbilharinho i doubt a deaf person would be watching anything to deal with music

[gazconnor]

i was thinking tony,weckl and buddy for one of those five minute snare solos :)

[JazzzPianist]

@gazconnor I would prefer Vinnie.

[truenewyorker101]

Love Tonys playing! He's in the top 3. Peart Bonham and Royster! That would be a sick drum jam. 3 masters of 3 generations.

[fullall]

Why's the guitarist so stiff??

[jscottCom101]

9 ppl are hating for no reason.

[mitmar8]

0:00 to 7:31 was sick.

[igor4291]

Ow very gooD!!!

[Dion7027]

how great....

amazing..

[DulNonpa]

Que masa locooooooooooooo!

[GB260]

anybody wanna know the defintion of speed..... start watching at 5:25 WOW

[CheapGearGuy]

This kid is INCREDIBLE...but could you imagine him in a band that wasn't there to help show him off? That would probably be the best band in the world. Maybe it's ego, but you in a band with musicians that are equally capable on their respective instruments? HOLY CRAP! That band would just DESTROY everything....the fabric of the universe would probably come apart! ha ha ha

[savagezone]

I guarantee You when Bieber comes this age he's still not going to be this good on the drums. Nor will he hit puberty

[TheSteadydrummer]

@savagezone Yeah that band is Dream Theater!

[TheOrisApparatus]

6:09 unintentional blastbeat! :D

[setnewer]

wow ive only been playing for 3 months and i could easily play this. what a load of shit

[MrPoepluier]

@setnewer

when you can play like this after 3 months you are probably a drum god in a year, so if i dont hear about you in the news by then keep your shitty comment for yourself -_-

[OoOKritikalOoO]

@setnewer PROVE IT!!!!!!!! UPLOAD!!!!!!!!!

[ahrims221]

@setnewer k so message me when u got a video doing better ok?

[Raissmo]

3:50 is the craziest shit i've ever seen

[mc100mana]

i was just about to put the bosh comment, but somebody has obviously done it

[GabrielKai]

Love the drum groove, the fills, the drum sound, the drummer... but bleh harmony/melody and guitar sound is sucky lolz, omg these chords make me nervous

[ConceptSkateboards]

wut genre of music is this? i was gunna say jazz but im not sure

[Independentschlueder]

@ConceptSkateboards this is what you call fusion..

[mstrpth287]

↓ agree

[tennisIS4pussys]

It really pisses me off when people think drummers like Neil Peart and John Bonham are the greatest drummers in the world. Tony is easily much better than them, in my opinion , tony and Carter Beauford are the best drummers to ever live.

[julianisdope]

chris bosh on guitar

[2974015]

how can people dislike the video he is amazing i want to c him battle aaron spears

[lemigrant]

Why good musicians do that shit song?!

Good to watch, but not so good to listen...

[MrSounddrums]

@lemigrant haha you play in a marching band hu lol get out of here

[MrSounddrums]

@lemigrant haha you play in a marching band hu lol get out of here

[resu19]

@lemigrant if u manage to mentally mute the rest of the band (mostly the fucking guitar player) its not that bad. (if you enjoy to listen to some good drums ofc xD)

[PatrickProduction]

This is a song you would typically find on a cheesy Japanese game......

..... I love it :)

[ROCKSTARCRANE]

Shat myself at 5:35....

[glennsnare09]

@ROCKSTARCRANE yeah that part completely blew my mind too

[YouHates]

where the hell can i find music like this without any drums in it so i like play along??!?!?!

[aroundthefur]

5:24 IS THE SICKEST SHIT IVE EVER SEEN!!!!

[angeriod]

@aroundthefur 5:35 one of the best droppp!!! WOWWWW

[stsii]

@aroundthefur Man yea! I aint neva seen anything like dat in my entire livelihood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jabafreak]

yeah!! \m/

[dooleysquat]

Maybe if I practice hard enough, i'll be half as good...maybe.

[TakisT888]

@dooleysquat me too

[resu19]

@dooleysquat If u get to be half as good as him, u'll still be better then 90% of the mainstream band's drummers. So good luck xD

[xXSixtDrummingXx]

One word : AMAZING !!!! :D

[kenyiflow]

el mejor del mundo para mi

[ShawnyMartin]

great to see the inspiration that he got from Carter Beauford come through in his playing.

[SvenNysvenn4]

Does anybody know, where I can buy the album? :)

[malandro2311]

0:08 - 7:30 o.O

[Xxb3eassstxX]

is 2:19 - 2:30 even possible?

[nidmight106]

Tony has truly became a master at his craft - all I can say is "wow"

[Deathhunter992]

5:25 looks sped up! Amazing.

[mstrpth287]

Lmao, im sure you're so much better. You talk as if what he's doing is a piece of cake

[baronvonchunk]

It really pisses me off to see drummers with such talent waste it on gimmicky rudiments and rock-school generic music and style.

[rangiwoods]

@baronvonchunk fuck up mate

[Magic20090]

@baronvonchunk he plays all types of styles.. the money comes for rock if u notices.. but a gospel drummer.. dumb ass dude read up on ur musicians be sayin dumb shit like that

[baronvonchunk]

@Magic20090 Thank you for being so patronizing. I know full way he plays all types of fucking styles, and I think he's making enough money. Since when was it about that anyway? I've never seen him play or solo anything but this style so point me in another direction next time you fancy calling me a "dumb ass".

[glennsnare09]

@baronvonchunk and what would you consider good music? who would you consider a more talented drummer??... travis barker??... HAHAHA get outta here

[baronvonchunk]

@glennsnare09 You can fuck off, actually. I think Travis Barker is a talentless, money-grabbing, over-popular shitpile of a "musician", so you can leave your assumptions to yourself. This to me is just shitty music they'd play at an arcade for some racing game or something.

[MrSounddrums]

@baronvonchunk shut up !!!

[glennsnare09]

@baronvonchunk are you musically inclined at all?

[MrSounddrums]

@glennsnare09 lol good one na man hes into that marching band stuff lol

[glennsnare09]

@MrSounddrums Im into that marching band stuff too. Im just saying that you cant even compare travis barker to tony royster. at all

[mstrpth287]

That's as good as it gets!

[RageMachineAgainst]

that is not a band, but a live backing track



[JamarM5479]

5:25 made me walk outside and catch some fresh air because I almost passed out.

[glennsnare09]

@JamarM5479 haha me too

i luv this video
