I know this song is a bit dated now and different to what i normally do but I included this 'lesson/cover' because i was already working on it with a bunch of my students and wanted to share!! *A full drum transcript will be available to download free from my website in the next wk!

VIDEO:
This is a Drum Cover Video and Drum Lesson to Avenged Sevenfold's single Nightmare from their 2010 release Nightmare and is the copyrighted property of its owner(s).

I've also included a Drum Lesson (beat breakdown of the opening double kick fill at the start) This was a little different from what i normally enjoy playing but it was surprisingly very fun to play. Hope you enjoy! *Please Subscribe to my channel (more content on its way!)

Cheers,

  • Do u use any muffling in your bass drum?

  • @ricardoieci just a pillow resting against both heads

  • How do you mount your rototom in your drumset ? sounds cool

  • @PlugThePull just with the mount that came with the tom, then a normal pearl tom arm

  • @wrightdrums How do you play the tomtoms at 4:16 to 4:18? I can`t get a hold of it! Or is it somebody else here who can tell me or link me to a another video?

  • @trollkunst they're all single strokes (RLR L RLR L). It's all written in the chart: wrightdrums(.)com/transpaid/ni­ghtmare/

  • @trollkunst theres a rudiment called a "herta" and it's that sticking RLR L, LRL R. Get familiar with it, cuz drummers use it alot. Once you know what it is...you pick up on it very quickly, and you can use it to your advantage when playing

  • wow what do u put in your bass drum to make it sounds so good

  • Are u the new drummer in Avenged Sevenfold?

  • Wow, perfect fills, the most true-to-the-song drum cover I've ever seen for this particular piece :)

  • @ryrypaulz Thanks!

  • @wrightdrums Thanks!
