Drum Cover: "Empire of the Gun," by God Forbid

This is a video of myself playing the drum track along to the song "Empire of the Gun," by the American heavy metal band God Forbid.

I only had a few hours to record this video, so there are some serious problems concerning A/V synchronization. I promise you that I played it in time, but whether you want to believe that or not is your choice.

Comments, subscriptions, "likes" ("thumbs-up"s), and video responses are EXTREMELY appreciated. I will try to answer any serious questions you might post as soon as I can.

Thanks for watching!

Strong neck portrusion in here. The ending made me lul. Is the song Aesthetics of Hate by Machinehead out of your abiility to play?

[TedNugentDrums]

@DatCatSteven It is not out of the range of my playing ability, but I don't care for the song enough to spend that kind of time perfecting/recording it. Sorry. I love suggestions though, so keep 'em coming.

John why do you have long hair if you don't use it. We freakin need some death metal head banging going!!!

[TedNugentDrums]

@voden6 Still workin' on windmilling + drumming lol.

[TedNugentDrums]

@voden6 Plus this song isn't that heavy, and it's kinda slow.

woohoo first comment,.i like the little cymbal sweep at 2:51. some constructive criticism, i think you need to turn music down in the mix and turn up the drums little. great job man!

[TedNugentDrums]

@BrewerTheBassist Thanks man! Yea, I could do that. I still have a video project saved, so it would just take a couple hours for the PC to re-render it with louder drums.
