Still the best "Bat Country" drum cover on UA-cam to this date.
Really nice of you to say, thank you so much for watching and commenting! Lots of good inspiration for me to pull from on UA-cam.
Yes,agree with u
I concur. Dude’s a machine
Check this one out! ua-cam.com/video/dQw4w9WgXcQ/v-deo.html
@@Anonymous-zp6pw Broooooo hahah 😂
This is the first Bat Country cover that actually follows the music perfectly and executes it perfectly. Reverend would be proud.
Very glad you enjoyed it friend! I definitely tried to stay as faithful to the original parts as I could. Although every now and then you'll see me stray for a fill or two. But yeah it should be all there for the most part haha thanks for watching!
Mike Di Guglielmo 3:29 No double bass 0/10 u suck
loljk you fucking rock dude clean as fuck gg
11 years and still the best cover of "Bat Country" ever
Too kind Ritchie, thank you 🙏
Bruh. i mean his cover is good but, go check El Estepario Siberiano and say that again
@@Atmsphrmistykal this one is better than his imo, more accurate overall
@@Hangman_GG I know what you're trying to say but, as a drummer, i can tell you it's not. It's less accurate. Also his technique is too rough and you can feel in his movements that it is not instinctive at all
@@Atmsphrmistykal Maybe so, alls i know is that i enjoy watching this performance of it better than El Estepario. Cant put my finger on it, just feels more alive
Damn, that was the most clean cover of that song i've seen on the internet! Thank you a lot and keep on fighting!!!
Your support is more than appreciated my friend, thank you!
Agreed 👏👏
Oh hell yeah

Has to be one of the hardest drum somgs
Definitely wasn't easy. Sometimes I wonder if I still remember how to play it haha. Thanks for watching!
Well, definitely not the hardest! I'm actually learning it right now, and i'm having a really hard time, especially because of the tempo differences and the random smalls fills!
pookapook yoyo same here
Mike Diggs but easier or harder than beast and the harlot?
Mike Diggs I guess you could say it was Almost Easy. Sorry I had to
This is the best bat country drum cover ever
Honored that you think that, thank you!

2021...still no where to go for a better cover of Bat Country...
Thank you so much!!!
Most perfect Bat Country drum cover i’ve seen. EVER!
Glad you enjoyed, thanks so much for watching!
awesome dude!
Thank you!
I watch you when i was still in highschool and continuesly watch you just to listen to your drums, you're one of my highschool memories. And to this day i never listen to any drum cover of bat country but yours❤
WOW thank you for sharing this with me! I'm so glad these videos are still positively impacting people. Cheers to you friend, thank you for your continued support throughout the years!
more than glad to hear something like that and probably undeserving of it too. thanks for the extra motivation!
Why the viewers are only around 280K? this drum cover should at least hit 5 million viewers!
I wish it did haha share it with a friend and help me get there :)
Mike Di Guglielmo Do new cover mate. ;D
Working on it! :D
Great drumming broo! ;) You just got a new subscriber!
Rolf Pedofilo Thanks for the sub, you won't be disappointed!
Amazing - great job! Wow, that was spot on with a little of your own style mixed in. Best cover of this song I've seen.
I'm so glad you think so thanks for watching!
Dude you killed those drums. Amazing.
+Nellie Just Another Niqabi Thank you :)
its been yearsss since i came across this drum cover and to this date i still came here everytime i need a boost of energy. thanks so much!!!
I'm happy you've been stopping by! Thank you!
Saw it a month ago and I just can't stop coming here again and again and watch this awesome cover of my favorite "drum" song! Was an everyday thing in the beginning.
(Must've given it 100+ views already lol)
How this has only 50k views is just beyond me. This is the best and the most authentic cover for the song on UA-cam. Deserves 950k more!
Bruv you've gotta make more covers.. you've got fans.
Best regards from India
I cannot express my appreciation for all the love brother! Much back to you from America, I am working on a new cover this month and it should be out in a few weeks my friend. Thank you again for your kind words and support! :)
Mike Di Guglielmo No problem buddy :)
Waiting for your new cover. Make it as kick ass as this one! And please let me know if you start taking suggestions. Cheers!
Best cover i saw of this song so far. Thumbs up!!
Thank you that means a whole lot!
Wow!!! Amazing drumming!
+Lego Boy Thank you!
So agressive... I like that!
Best drum cover of this song, I can't stop watching it!
+Vamlack thanks guy!
perfect :D
Why thank you!
is my favorite song, and I like you vibe playin'
I’ve gone down a The Rev wormhole for the last couple of days, as yesterday was 11 years since he passed. This, without doubt, is the single best thing I’ve watched, other than the great man himself. Outstanding work.
Hey thanks Mark, nice of you to say that man. I'm happy to be one of so many talented drummers that have paid tribute to him on UA-cam over the years!
So much power, well done bro!
Thank you!
this is soooooooo awesome!!
Ah man to be honest I can't remember the specifics, most of those are broken now but I know the ride is a 22" Sabian AA, left and far right crashes are both Zildjian A series probably 18" and 19" respectively, middle crash is a Zildjian A custom probably 18", splash is a Zildjian A Series although I cant remember the measurements exactly on that, and the hats are Zildjian mastersounds 14"
power full amazing....good job!!!
+Afriliya Fitri thank you!
Wow, awesome men👍
Thank you!
Wow nice one dude. Your skills are great. Thanks for sharing
And thank you for watching friend :)

+Nadav Blum thanks you're amazing too!
I play the guitar, but DAMN
I'm sure you're a f***ing SHREDDER. Thanks for watching!
Mike Diggs I'm strictly rhythm, I don't want to make it cry or sing.
Perfect. Best cover.. love it 😍
Thank you so much!

Recommended to me just now and one thing, why tf was this not recommended to me sooner cause this is the best bat country drum cover imo
Hahah I appreciate you, glad the video made its way to you!
R u fucking humane? The best cover in UA-cam.
+Lockheed Martin haha yes i am human i promise you that, thank you for watching and commenting!
thats a compliment i dont know if im willing to accept haha but thank you so much im glad you enjoy the video. just got a brand new drum kit, gettin ready to show it off so stay tuned for more covers!
Are you in a band?! You play so good to be true.
I've been in quite a few! Currently I am playing with two bands, an indie rock band called PJKTS (Paper Jackets) and a three piece rock band called The Gutter Daisies. PJKTS is Facebook, twitter, and instagram check us out! TGD is working on an EP right now. Thanks for the interest! :)
Paper Jackets? Is that a band from Colorado? I've heard them before. I didn't know that you actually in them...
We're based in Los Angeles. Our album is coming out February 10th! You can find our EP on iTunes and Spotify though! Search for "PJKTS".
Good shit. Probably the best covers of this song i've seen yet!
Thank you sooo much! :D
Someones at the door
Ill get it
Mike Diggs thanks man theyve only been waiting 10 years they good?
Speechless
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
workout routine plz lol
Haha back then? My workout routine was, just wear stupid cutoff shirts and pretend you're big and maybe sometimes people might buy it for a few minutes.
Great, great cover. Clean, super close to studio version, & still add own here and there very subtly. My favorite cover of the song. Even w.o the china. Crisp with the splash during solo lol 👍
So glad you enjoyed and I greatly appreciate the kind words! Yeah that splash came in handy haha I never was able to get my hands on a china so I figured that would be an okay substitute for the china. As far as fidelity goes, the Rev's parts are pretty intricate, I definitely wanted to stay faithful to them. I couldn't help but throw a little something different in here and there but like you said, only very subtly. Thanks again so much for watching!
For how long have you been playing? You are a beast!
Thank you! Been playing for almost 13 years now
wow i just wow dude haha the best Bat Country drum cover i've ever seen :D
So happy you enjoyed! Find me on instagram send me a message and say hey! 🤘

Thank you so much that means a ton!
I'm not a drummer and doesn't understand about drum, but i can clearly says this is the best cover i've ever seen on UA-cam.
Well I am not a Septian Dekky. And I dont know anything abouty Septian Dekkys. But you are the best Setpian Dekky I have ever met on UA-cam. Thank you for watching and commenting! 🙃
This is amazing, subscribed. You played it great and wow you’ve got some big arms.
Hahah thank you so much, super glad that you enjoyed it!
Absolutely insane drummer!
Thank you!
The *only* guy on UA-cam who gets all the symbol-work in this song right!!
Hahaha thank you! Tried my best to stay faithful to the tune for the most part. Missing a china back then but oh well lol
The respect of the original drum version is amazing! Wow The Rev would be so proud! Keep it up

Incredible
Power and precission
Congratulations!
Thank you!
Nice cover, and what a great drumset you have. Congratulations!
Ah yeah she's my baby haha I've had that kit for 11 years now I love her to death. I bought a new Gretsch kit since and I've been using that for my later covers, it too is beautiful. But I'm thinking about bringing that Yamaha back for a cover or two just for the heck of it. Thanks for watching!
Wow. This is among the best I'd ever watched. Congratulations!
İrem Ezer Damn the best? Thanks for makin' my day hahah
Awesome ,,, i think this cover still the best drum cover,,, i've watched so many times and still like it.
I'm so glad to hear that, thank you for supporting!
Holy sh.t dude the part from 2:02 to 2:25 is just insane :"D. I'm not really into drum covers, i'm more like a guitar guy, but i saw this video already at least 20 times.Fenomenal!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed and I appreciate you leaving the positive feedback man👍
Really impressive Mike. Its great to see someone actually work out every aspect of a song and not just fluff over all the hard bits. That song has so much stuff going on in it...the Rev had that marvellous balance of technical brilliance coupled with what was right for the song. I love his playing and it was a pleasure to watch what he did on the kit to accomplish that. Great work!
Paul Morton Thanks man glad you enjoyed this. For a song like this I definitely wanted to stay faithful to the original parts of the song since Jimmy made them so iconic and unique. Of course there are a few parts here and there where I may have throw in an extra fill or a couple more strokes, but all in all I tried to maintain fidelity as much as I could! Thanks for watching guy!
