You're like the Bob Ross of drums. Soothing and laid back. I can just imagine you saying, "Here we have some happy little skank beats. It's your song. Where does your skank beat live?"
I fucked up! When I break the solo into sections, the second section goes like this: sskkttkkttssttsksksksssskkttttkkttkksskk Regardless, I play it correctly up to speed and slowed down in it's entirety throughout.
+Josh Steffen It honestly amazes me how you are able to play something slower and then even while omitting a limb. That is a symptom of some true talent if I do say so my self. Lots of control.
+Mark Bocanegra Glad it didn't offend. I love Morbid Angel. I guess the death metal fucks i'm referring to are the ones who talk shit on sickdrummermagazine's videos about moeller techniques and shit. Those typ'a fucks. ;)
+Josh Steffen I love metal, even most of the sub-genera. I am not closed minded like most people. You as Josh Steffen not Joey or anyone else. I hate fucking fan boys that talk shit. Take care, man \m/
Slipknot-Metabolic and Chic N Stu by SOAD would be my suggestions. I've commented on videos before but you're a fantastic drummer and huge inspiration. The only RU-vid channel I watch religiously so to speak haha.
+Josh Steffen it's awesome that you break these songs down especially aov from slipknot I couldn't figure out how he was doing the intro but now I know thanks. You are awesome to watch I hope I get to your level one day!
I have a feeling that the best drummers are the ones that say "I dont care if thats how you're supposed to do it", they do it their way and it works better them
Fucking awesome man! Thanks for another great upload. One thing that might be great is to map out one of your medleys and break down each part, since from what I've seen you really take the parts you love most that fit well together. Not sure about feasibility, it just sounds cool (at least to me haha)
Only just come across this video. It’s awesome. Exactly what I needed, helps with a few other songs too as it happens 👍🏻 love your attitude aswell, I often use my double pedal to save some energy toward the end of a gig. Or just when I feel like it to be honest. Thanks 🤘🏻
yo, Josh! Honestly, I think I'm your bigger fan! Your the best youtube's drummer! your the god off drummers! I'm 14 years old, I play drum since 6 years, and I really love you guy!
The thin line between love and hate by iron maiden. I love your maiden covers, keep up the great work! "Where dark and light don't differ" by Immortal. Dunno if you're into any black metal or not, but it's a great song and would be awesome to see a cover of it!
Some man Josh 👍 bought my 5 year old a pretty decent electric kit for a hobby in the house. Played drums a little when I was younger. Now I'm never off the thing. I ended up getting a good price on an iron cobra double pedal and I listen to your drum covers in the car just because it sounds better. Anyway really wanted to have a go at people = shit. No where near good at it but this tutorial is definitely helping a lot. Cheers
Awesome Josh, I know you don't do much LOG but at the end of the song Straight for the sun into Desolation has a pretty cool drum solo that would be cool to see you figure out and do a tutorial. Just a suggestion thanks man!!!!
hey man, like you said, no huge deal to play the blast with quarter notes on the hats, but you can clearly do it well enough on the china using your right hand! maybe swing that right hand over to the hats and playing the blast like that? another great video too, you've got serious skills!
Your blast beats are pretty good and personally I think faster bomb blast and hammer blast sound better with quarter notes on the hi hat. Also makes it easier for the guitarist to follow
You see for the intro blasts I do the same blast beats all three times except the first two parts I play closer to the snare so it sounds slower and quieter. Then for the initial third blast beat I am still doing the same thing but I play a combo of finger and wrist technique so it brings the stick higher and it hits harder. All with my right hand so I’m definitely going to get tendonitis and arthritis xD
really helpful vid, sometimes I prefer it when people interpret covers in their own way, adds your own stamp. for example I was listening to a live version on Blind by Korn and it was with Ray Luzier and he adds so much of his own into it, really gives the some more energy. love it though, keep up the amazing drum vids
Thanks for the great tutorial Josh. Can you please make one for the Lamb of God - Shoulder of Your God intro? I'm struggling to figure out and count the notes between 0:30-0:40
+Josh Steffen They had to grow to accept it. They were like "well he could suck or be a beginner". You probably made the wife into a covert metalhead hiding from her husband but blasting it on the way to work lol. Life is funny like that!
+XxCHRISchaosxX It would be shitty if he was some kid just starting out. There's some kid starting to play the TRUMPET down the way from me. He likes to practice with his window OPEN too. LOL! It could be a lot worse.
I learned how to play in a small town downtown condo. One day I ran into a lady at a gas station and she asked me if I was the one playing drums. So now I live in the suburbs and none has said anything. My nextdoor neighbor lied to me and told me they can't hear anything. I don't play past 7pm helps.
thanks for your tutorial sir . u`re give me more inspiration with all your video , Seriously !! and i`ll make drum cover video And I will try to make it better. Wait this year I promise, and when it is finished, you are the first person I will tell .. :)
It's cool that you make some tutorials. It adds variety to your channel and I believe that it also allows you to earn some money. It's all great, keep it up ;)
