GREAT cover! =D personally i am loving the snare drum sound, tho i would have to agree with @player836 that it may not be the best fit for this particular song. what skins are u using, if i may ask? =)

[chrisewan57]

@ioaka thanks man, yeah i do realise its probably not the best snare for this song, but i'm not really in the positition where i can afford to have a different snare for every song! XD

I'm using remo pinstripes on all the toms, an evans onyx on my snare and an evans EMAD on the bass drum

@chrisewan57 Hey man great video and you don't have to but a new snare to get a new sound. If you can/want you can switch heads and tune it differently
