Opeth - The Funeral Portrait

Drum playalong by Chris Anderson -
I've been playing drums for a year a half :
More or less, getting an idea on which parts i need to work on. My hand started cramping a lot in the middle of the song, so that's where you'll see the most technical mistakes. Overall though, i'm pretty happy with it, this is the first video i've posted with a heavy song.

purely homosexual, there is far much more dynamic and power going on in this song, the overall structure is reasonably tight, however, the power, particularly through the fills is shit. your double kick triplet patterns should be punching right out of the kick drum, not some shithouse, pussy bitch hitting

give me a break man....this was almost two years ago. I don't play at all like this now. I have some new videos coming soon

[JACKSONGUITARDUDE]

hmmm....im not sure if you have enough cymbals.

[xCrumblingMirth]

i know :) i've actually downsized to more of a jazz setup now, most of the splashes and chinas are gone!

[kabirbodom]

What china do you have one the extreme right, just above your laptop??? Pls can you post the exact detais? Cheers

[xCrumblingMirth]

Sure thing, it's just a regular 20" Wuhan china, it was about 50 dollars or so.

[demonaz667]

song is great, your drumming here is very close to original but you know that you still have to work on it

@pigdog69animal rofl, i'm so gonna start using that: 'purely homosexual' :DDD

[Markc9101]

Pretty fuckin good for 1 and a half years

[logarchopeth]

dude a few hundred more and terry bozzio's gonna be a very jealous person

[Greenoathz]

i like your style, for sure you have not always played metal and nothing else,

good touch and dynamic also,do not worry about those who criticize you on the mistakes, you are still good, still studying!

[Mindo1991]

@cbrandom My exact thoughts. That double bass at 0:57 is pretty spot on. good job

[cbrandom]

Pretty sick double bass roll at :57. Sorry if that's the wrong terminology, im not a drummer.

I find it hard to believe you've only been playing a year and a half. That's pretty bad ass for only a year and a half.. Did you take lessons?

[RickDuijs]

1:00 my favorite riff all times!

[littlegldgti]

Hey nice cover dude. I love the last two minutes of this song. Totally epic. Good job for 1 and half years.

@buldr3k Time doesn't matter, some people just get the hang of it. I've been playing for about 2 and a bit years and I'm playing songs like Deliverance and Heir Apparent.
