I don't know if calling this a drum "cover" is the most accurate term since 90% of it is improvised, but I hope you can enjoy it either way!

Best one-eyed drummer in existence.

@BrandonBurkhalter 6 лет назад

ENTITIES thank you! :)

@ajacob12 10 лет назад

This is really good. I think it's awesome that you decided to do your own thing even when you were already in a big band. I would really like to have a session with you to learn how to play this good but I don't have the money to do so. This is really amazing. Keep it up.

@arjunmenon5 3 месяца назад

9 years later your playthrough rocks. ❤

@Rakbladet23 10 лет назад

Amazing skills and speed. Just ... Wow!

@AlisterTate 10 лет назад

I seriously love the amount of technique you put into this rendition, although, there are some parts where just the straight death metal drumming helps accent everything in this song, like they way Andrew played the bit at about 2:00 with the double bass bursts really just help add the immense force and heaviness to the song. Other than that, your playing is phenomenal.

@harri-bj6gy 8 лет назад

Wow this was outstanding!! Best drum piece I've heard! You have so much potential!

@brettcrawford4215 Год назад

Why doesn't this have thousands of views? Drives me crazy. Drummers like Brandon don't get enough credit.

@Panda_SMM 10 лет назад

@pacificgeorgejohnsen7676 4 года назад

1:35 OH SHIT DUDE left hand stick gets caught on the hihat, but he still nailed the fill. nice recovery brudda

@joshualarson6668 4 года назад

That double stroke and those off notes are on point! Great cover brother

@BrandonBurkhalter 4 года назад

Joshua Larson thanks bro!

@n0pe158 9 лет назад

i didnt read the description until around the middle of the video, and i had no idea this was improvised, sounds just right. nice work brandon.

@lordblast90 9 лет назад

okay, this is just beyond amazing..! not just the speed and precision, but the impro...

@TemporarilyImmortal1 10 лет назад

Why did you have to leave Polyphia, you are the best drummer I've ever seen :(

@mikesinaro 10 лет назад

Because his drumming style and several other factors weren't apart of the direction they were going in. You should respect his decision rather than question it

@Sodigerati 10 лет назад

***** You can question somebodies decision without disrespecting it.

@mikesinaro 10 лет назад

You can, but in this case he's not.

@alucardgrindcore1 10 лет назад

***** I thought he handled the style change great. Some of his best work is on Muse IMO. But if this style is more his cup of tea then I can see why he would leave. Either way great drummer, sure someone will pick him up soon

@joshualarson6668 4 года назад

He is way more metal than polyphia sorry brother. That double stroke needs to be heard and polyphia simply is not metal. This is some straight up Fallujah death metal baby

@blakewarrens3925 2 года назад

The metal world never appreciated what a freak of nature this guy was/is. Genuinely insane

@patrickvangelder264 5 лет назад

Ive always said it, and repeater it here. To say so and so is the best drummer out there ( because of the spotlight ) is highly subjective. Theres always that one person in a basement whos better.

@JoshuaEpperson69 10 лет назад

Dude you went in and stayed in until the fade out. Made my day!

@AbeCastDrums 10 лет назад

Pure talent man. This left me speechless man. Make some more improv covers man! You should also make some lessons on your technique and about odd time sigs and stuff. That'd be totally cool because I love techniques like yours but have like no knowledge whatsoever on music theory and all that stuff, I basically just play drums and that's it. Would be totally cool because I can't afford lessons...

@Kjertinge 3 года назад

Bro that outro improv at the end was just mind blowing

@SLAMDALORIAN 9 лет назад

Nailed it. Please do more drum covers like this!

@TM-fr7gh 2 года назад

This is easily one of the best covers I've ever seen. Insane skills man!

@hermesjunior0 9 лет назад

Congrats, man! You're awesome!

@FatGrizz 10 лет назад

you know what, it still sucks that youre not in polyphia anymore but that doesn't change my opinion about u or them as musicians. granted i still listen to them, but U ARE ONE OF MY BIGGEST INSPIRATIONS EVER AS A DRUMMER!!!

@andystewart3863 8 лет назад

Still top 5 best kits I've ever seen very comfortable set up bud!

@Ru1Roy 10 лет назад

I can't wait for you to start playing in a band again

@cobalthorizon7247 10 лет назад

This is a perfect showcase of creativity and flawless form. This is hugely inspiring. Keep it up man!

@newschoolaesthetics 10 лет назад

Raw talent. Pure Art.

@codys_shelf 10 лет назад

So sick! Would've loved to hear more of the ambiance that I think makes Fallujah great during some of those parts, but none the less this was a joy to watch!

@centaur70 4 года назад

Nicely done dude. Good workout.

@BrandonBurkhalter 4 года назад

Centaur thanks man!

@marcloisvistal5401 8 лет назад
