  • @MATTlovesDRUMS haha i read that section, it was good advice and he gave lots of detail. even though i have a 22 inch i could apply some of what he said to my kick drum. eg beater placement

    he's an amazingly fluid and solid drummer who never overplays and knows how to compliment a song.

    a central inspiration to my playing along with steve jordan, of course!

  • god i love death cab. they've got incredible amounts of feeling, and ass kicking

see all

  • AHHH GROOVE FOR DAYS

  • He IS time.

    

  • ever since i watched this video, i have worked and worked and worked on my left foot. WORTH EVERY SECOND OF STRUGGLE!!! =D

  • That snare sounds awesome!

  • I wonder what Jason McGerr thinks of the drum beat in 1979 by Smashing Pumpkins. There's some sweet high hat action in that song.

  • those hi hats sound gorgeous

  • @IAmTheNietzsche i personally think The Photo Album and transatlanticism are their most interesting (and my favorite..) albums of theirs. Check it out.

  • holy fuck, i had no death cab had a good drummer, im gonna have to go actually give their music a chance now lol i had sorta written it off before without actually listneing, which was stupid of me

  • Jason is a fantastic drummer. That left-foot hi hat pedaling is oh so subtle but really adds another dimension to an otherwise average drum beat. Kind of like a Steve Gadd type of thing- very cool.
