Thought I would pick an easy beat for my first song on drums but damn that song is fast! You dont know until you try to play it. Need to start at 50 % speed for a while. Great video, thanks!
@@ThomMillsDrums thanks Thom. I enjoy your tutorials. I am catching up slowly with the original tempo of the song. The Strokes drums are a good learning material for new starters like me. Keep up the good work, the whole band is pretty good👍.
just bought an edrum kit and I am so glad i found your channel. This is my first song learned properly (and not just by ear) haha thanks! and you also have lessons. why do you have so few subscribers? ps. i dont know how you choose the songs but I hope you can do something from Incubus in the future (wish you were here? love this song) :D
Thanks for watching man, Incubus is a possibility, got a lot I want to get through. I'm kinda new to YT so working on my channel but glad your enjoying it!
Once you start getting it you could get extra practice with the tricky kick by playing American Girl by Tom Petty. You get those two down and you will never struggle with it again. Been working on both with my son.
@@AlexBritez man u don’t know how much you helped, before practicing american girl i stressed tf out because i couldnt get it right, and know it sounds perfect, thanks man, as well as the youtuber lol
at around the 1 minute mark @1:00 you play the slower version of it, which is unfortunately wrong as you show it it's a triplet bass drum not a normal as you play
I'm a guitar player who is just beginning learning the drums and your videos are the most helpful I've come across so far on UA-cam.
Arr amazing that’s Great to hear!

It is surprisingly fast, try the pattern very slow first and at a comfortable speed then gradually speed up with no more than 5bpm increments.

@@VanPerszing thanks very much, yes they are a good band to learn drums for, for sure!
nice playing, thanks mate!
Thank you too!
This really helped me learn the song. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
sounds good
cheers for the watching!

😎😎
Im having so much trouble with the bass drum rhythm bro😂😂
Yeah it’s a tricky one, remember slow it right down and build up the tempo slowly

How do you do the kick drum part????
I break it down in the video, it is quite pacey so try it nice and slow!
Can you cover Minerva by deftones
I would love to do that, by far the best request for a song I have received!
Thom Mills Drums thank you. Looking forward for my drum tutorial request. I Love all your drum
Cover
Hi you said the chorus is on the 4 and + 1 and but it did not sound like that when you played through the chorus.
I thought I heard it on some Es like 4 E
So kicks are on 1, 3, 4+, 1+, 3 - two bar phrase
What is the bpm for this song?
104 I believe, a quick google will let you know faster than me!
ooof the singer
at around the 1 minute mark @1:00 you play the slower version of it, which is unfortunately wrong as you show it
it's a triplet bass drum not a normal as you play
Those kicks are slightly swung I’d say, so it falls somewhere in between straight and swung
@@ThomMillsDrums Well, I think they could be a lil more swung. More like "triplet owned" kicks, with pauses in between, before and after
@@spantsoputio8654 being a bit pedantic there my guy. Sounds fine
