GOLIATH - Karnivool Drum Cover (HD)

Hey everyone, this is my first video in ages...
I'm in my final year of school so I've been nailing down on the study, not much time for drums.
I felt like doing some drum videos, however, and so here is my second cover from Karnivool's amazing 'Sound Awake', Goliath.
Hope you guys enjoy it - I haven't had time to learn any of the greats like Umbra, Deadman, The Caudal Lure or Change, but I'll do them when I finish school.
I think this is probably the best drum mix I've achieved to date, I've been fiddling around with the EQs and the Condensers a bit - don't know what they mean or do but they seem to be working!

(August 2011) - I've recently started playing with a band called "The Scenic Road", Come listen, download our demos and hit us up on our wall, our link is: http://www.facebook.com/thescenicroad :)

Needs moar cymbal.

@jordangreen93 ah well unfortunately i only use half of those cymbals now! :P

This is a great song and band to cover because instead of just trying to show off, you actually UNDERSTAND the music. I think that is the most important part of Karnivool's music is to feel it. And one of the best ways is through drums. So even though I hate most covers of anything simply because it leads to copying instead of creating, good job. As for these picky bastards, they are just jealous because you picked an intense drum song to play, and played it probably close to perfect.

@AweAttack Hey man I appreciate the comment heaps. Sorry about the username, i made that name when i was 12, and yes I do regret it :P. I definitely don't think of myself as a 'drumpro', haha and I suppose I was a little immature when i first made my youtube account 5-6 years ago :P I actually don't know how to change my username? Does that mean I have to create a new account? Because that would be rather inconvenient!

pretty simple cover try goliath mars volta

[Drumpro712]

@twig123 thanks mate, yeah i did do a take of that, wasn't happy with the sound though - I'm going to do it again soon. Great song that one!

[amanky11]

tighten your snare please :)

[MrHello7843]

the right side of your kit from this camera angle looks quite far away from the left side.

[kickdrummer187]

I guess when I see cover videos I expect perfection.

[p0esbek]

I'm loving that china cymbal on the right. What is it?

[Opiate1987]

@jordangreen93 more cowbell!

[TheSaneMe]

Is it my problem . .

some lay back feel :)

[Moiez101]

@jordangreen93

moar? YOU WANT MOAR?!

[renatxow]

Awesome job, dude! Congrats! Who cares about school when you play the drums like this? Hahaha.

[nattyj000]

Well done dude.

Is that your prac. space? Tell me it's not at your house or I will be sooooooooo jealous! Ha ha. Ignore the sledges. Constructive criticism is fine - I'm sure it may even be one of the reaasons ppl post footage of themselves. Good Luck with your future drumming dreams dude.
