When you see a guy with this kind of technique, hitting the ghost notes, eyes closed in concentration and grooving his head that hard. You KNOW it’s gonna be a dope play through. This was so good. Made me love the song even more.
This dude IS 95% of metal drumming out there haha he owns this shit. Absolute underrated legend. He carved the way for so many drummers. Luke Holland wouldn't be where he is today without this guy
Lol. He is good but saying he's better than 95% of metal drummers makes me wonder what 'metal' are you listening too. Most of the bands I listen to have tech/prog drumming with some mad timing lol he's good but he's not Haake lol
one of my favorite musician moments in my life was back in 2013 when my old band and I got to open for you guys in houston. Picking your brain on that Greiner Kilmer kit and just chilling with you and TIJ before the show even started.
his posture is impeccable and those switch-hand blasts are awesome. Great feel, solid fills and terrific energy. Loved it. That kit sounds amazing. Props to the engineers.
What a time to be alive! You were such an inspiration to me as a young drummer, then life did it’s thing and I had to stop playing. Now I’m back drumming again after almost a decade and y’all drop this banger! Keep it coming man, this is sick!
A decade ago my life was a lot simpler and happier, and I was listening to a lot of TIJ. Something about the TIJ "sound" just puts my mood and headspace back like it was then, in a way I can't really describe. As a drummer myself this music is more than just technical drum porn and metal riffage, it's therapy. So glad you guys are back.
You'll always be one of my all time favourite drummers! Can't believe its been 13 years since I discovered TIJ and now I couldn't be happier you guys are finally back 🔥🔥
Hey man, I haven't heard that aggressiveness in months 💪🏿🥁🔥, I needed to hear this, thank you very much, a perfect and penetrating dynamic, wow that snare. 🔥 There you have your like and your subscription, make more videos like this, you inspire me
What a blessing in times of uncertainty!! Thank you Texas in July. Been listening to you since "Show some pride, dressed for war etc" so glad to see you back. I will see you live. Wow!!! You all were one of my go tos from my late teen years!!🎉🎉🎉🎉. Looking forward to much more from you all!!!
Im 100% convinced the reason metalcore drumming is the way it is today is SOLELY due to Adam Gray's influence. Every drummer in a band now used to watch Adams vids and look up to him. So glad to see he is back
Used to watch your Hook Line and Sinner playthrough to get hyped up to go practice and this playthrough is so gnarly it’s unreal how tasteful and tight and how hard this is
When i saw the new song from Texas in July, i was so freaking happy! Blood Work was so awesome and the new song sounds like it. It's like comming home.
Please, do a drum playthrough of every song Texas In July will release in the future because this is incredible. The drums are written extremly well and I didn't catched of it while listening to the track. The playthrough is incredible to see how difficult and well writtrn this actually is. And, the production quality and the mix are insane. I love the way you are playing, this is tasteful and nuanced yet fast and powerful, so enjoayble to watch !
I don't play the drums but you're one of my favorite drummers I remember watching your drum cam with Texas in July and being fascinated, that was 12 years ago
I am so glad to see the master at work again. I took so much inspiration from you back in the day. Especially from the UA-cam videos of you all playing on what looks like a gym floor
Unbelievably happy that TIJ and you are back
Thank you! It’s fun
SAME!!!
You forgot christian
FOR REAL. So awesome
When you see a guy with this kind of technique, hitting the ghost notes, eyes closed in concentration and grooving his head that hard. You KNOW it’s gonna be a dope play through.
This was so good. Made me love the song even more.
that little stick flip at 1:58 absolutely badass
That's his signature.
Who the heck would have that cross their mind during that insanity.?? Only the Adam.
Classic AG style
😂
I literally said "Come on bro!..." Like, he's already an incredible player shoving in our face haha
Those toms sound so incredible. The playing was immaculate.
Was going to comment the same: amazing Tom sound.
i'd hope so they're dw collectors. they cost the price of a car for just the drums. never mind cymbals (another 10kusd ish) and maybe 7-8k in hardware
Adam Gray is without a doubt one of the most talented drummers to have ever sat behind a drum set.
Adam Gray is and always will be one of the most influential metalcore drummers IMO. This can’t any be more tight it’s pure fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That blast while switching hands was so sick, the whole song is sick! Awesome work! 🤘
Better than 95% of metal drummers on the planet, and you don't even need to open your eyes. Cymbals STAYING hit.
This dude IS 95% of metal drumming out there haha he owns this shit. Absolute underrated legend. He carved the way for so many drummers. Luke Holland wouldn't be where he is today without this guy
@@forestcityexoticsco.307my first day hearing of Texas in July. Not quite sure how they passed my radar. 🤯🤯
His flair is ridiculous. It's very personal to him
Lol. He is good but saying he's better than 95% of metal drummers makes me wonder what 'metal' are you listening too. Most of the bands I listen to have tech/prog drumming with some mad timing lol he's good but he's not Haake lol
@@thejackoat7687Expand your radar, there’s so much hidden treasures out there
That groove on the toms is the best groove I’ve ever heard in metalcore in my life
I can watch goats play all day!! This where he belongs! Dude to me is one of the best to ever do it
Musicality, insanely good songwriting and pure soul in each hit. This is why he's one of my favorite drummers.
One of the best if not the best drummers in metal
Yes man, that's my opinion too!
Morgan berthet
100%. Him and Matt Greiner are both top-tier.
You need to open your eyes to some other drummers then lol
Chris Turner would like to speak with you
The musicianship in his writing these drums part is perfect
That Tom groove between the backbeats, in the chorus, is just too damn tasty 🔥
one of my favorite musician moments in my life was back in 2013 when my old band and I got to open for you guys in houston. Picking your brain on that Greiner Kilmer kit and just chilling with you and TIJ before the show even started.
Those drums sound SIIIICK 🤘🏼🤘🏼
They kinda remind a little of the new LMTF for sound and how they are mixed.
The snare sounds bigger than my future
@@justinpursel8596same producer will do it (Atrium Audio) aka Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland
This is the BEST drum play along vid I've ever seen. Audio is especially great. Awesome gear too!
his posture is impeccable and those switch-hand blasts are awesome. Great feel, solid fills and terrific energy. Loved it.
That kit sounds amazing. Props to the engineers.
What a time to be alive! You were such an inspiration to me as a young drummer, then life did it’s thing and I had to stop playing. Now I’m back drumming again after almost a decade and y’all drop this banger! Keep it coming man, this is sick!
One of the best playthroughs I’ve seen in a while.
You sure know how the drums should be hit, love it! pure power!
So much power! But yet so elegant and effortless.
Glad you’re back!!
Every hit counts with this guy.. incredible playing
It's great to see new Texas In July... in the month of July 🤘
Welcome back, you've been missed! This song slaps, glad to see Christian is back with the band as well!
Absolutely incredible surprise!
I love how every drummer has their own style no matter how similar to another drummer and I enjoyed seeing you perform, great style man.
That snare sound is unreal, sounds like a literal cannon
Still one of My favourite drummers ever. That blast beat and cymbal work from 51 seconds is crazy.
A decade ago my life was a lot simpler and happier, and I was listening to a lot of TIJ. Something about the TIJ "sound" just puts my mood and headspace back like it was then, in a way I can't really describe. As a drummer myself this music is more than just technical drum porn and metal riffage, it's therapy. So glad you guys are back.
Could feel this through my phone. Thank you Adam we all love you.
Just when I wanted to leave this earth something beautiful from my childhood comes back to ground me.
I'm SO pumped these guys are making music again. Adam is absolutely one of the best drummers in the scene.
the style of adam gray's incomparable. One of the best metalcore's drummers.
Not a single throwaway drum section, that's why your a metal OG! This track/video is sick!
Love to see you coming back always miss your work!!!
Blew my mind never heard of this band this guy is incredible
You'll always be one of my all time favourite drummers! Can't believe its been 13 years since I discovered TIJ and now I couldn't be happier you guys are finally back 🔥🔥
Adams China on a breakdown has always cut through like a sword. 🗡️ Absolutely the best.
Insane brother!! Never been happier to see you upload another Texas In July play through!
My god this dude hitting hard af!!! Love it!!!!!
I can’t get over how solidly executed these parts are!!?! Top tier right here
Hey man, I haven't heard that aggressiveness in months 💪🏿🥁🔥, I needed to hear this, thank you very much, a perfect and penetrating dynamic, wow that snare. 🔥
There you have your like and your subscription, make more videos like this, you inspire me
It's so much more complex than I thought. Adam really is an inspiration.
I love the drumming of adam❤🥁
my childhood hero, the legendary Adam Gray always killing it.
The tone of the toms is perfection! - Fantastic playthrough
I rewatch this all the time, and it's just insane how you think Adam. The loud pauses in everything to the crazy off hand fills. You are such a inspo
The mixing is phenomenal too
Damn. Every note is hit with such confidence and power it’s awesome to watch
One of the best to ever touch the sticks in my opinion.
This video has rekindled my passion! Cheers and well done sir!!!
One of the BEST drummers in the genre IS BACK
Whoaa pure raw power energy!!
YESSSS WE ALL NEED SOME ADAM GRAY DRUMS IN OUR LIVES! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I was watching your videos when I was 15 and I am very glad to see this now at 25 years age, thank you man.
The song, the production, the sound.
That's a perfect in my opinion !
God bless this man. Best thing I've seen since Garstka.
Powerful, balanced, dynamic, mesmerising. Incredible playing, awesome mixing. Props to all
2:07 is absolutely gross I love it. So happy that your back, been my favourite drummer for almost a decade
What a blessing in times of uncertainty!! Thank you Texas in July. Been listening to you since "Show some pride, dressed for war etc" so glad to see you back. I will see you live. Wow!!! You all were one of my go tos from my late teen years!!🎉🎉🎉🎉. Looking forward to much more from you all!!!
Something Ive always loved about Adam’s style is that it’s a different experience to WATCH him play.
Seeing these playthroughs always make me realize how much more difficult the sticking (and whole song) is than I originally thought
One of the tightest drummers we have out there, awesome to see more of you Adam keep it up
o melhor baterista de metal core que eu ja vi na minha vida . Adam Gray , completo'
Greatest drummer possibly ever
ADAM GRAY IS SUCH A UNIT❤️🔥
Im 100% convinced the reason metalcore drumming is the way it is today is SOLELY due to Adam Gray's influence. Every drummer in a band now used to watch Adams vids and look up to him. So glad to see he is back
precise, calculated and technical. Adam Gray you're one of favorite's to watch!
Thank you for coming back. Seriously. 🙌🏻
The most underrated and homeless drummer. From concrete work to spanking the skins. Respect this man.
Used to watch your Hook Line and Sinner playthrough to get hyped up to go practice and this playthrough is so gnarly it’s unreal how tasteful and tight and how hard this is
No petarda Panie Adamie 🔥
Dude this playthrough is insane. Your drums have such distinct sound. Absolutely incredible
Pura violencia, me encanta el djent pausado y guitarras afinadas lo mas graves posibles bien demoledoras, muy buen video!
It is SO good to see Adam playing again. Such a huge inspiration to me.
Duuuude 🔥😭 so sick! Can we get a cymbal rundown in the description? Pleeease
He's still got it!
I'll never forget hearing the salt of the earth EP and thinking "holy shit, this is fucking mad!"
Glad to have you back brother
never left.. one of the best out there man thank you
Thanks UA-cam algorithm! This guys is insane!! Completely amazing

@@AdamGrayDrums So happy to hear that !
He's filling in for August Burns red currently. There's some videos of him playing with them. Check em out.
One of the best out there!
You and Matt were my inspiration to learn metal drumming 14 years ago. Thank you for everything King
Tone is amazing and his precision and timing is nuts. Impressive
Simply cannot compose words to describe this beautiful video. Amazing, simply amazing.
Love that this is unedited 🙌 mad props, lovely music as always from you and TIJ
Yess, no other way!
@@AdamGrayDrums GOAT 🐐
Adam you are amazing! for me you are one of the best inspirations in the metal drummer world, what a beast!
Incroyable ! On reconnaît le style tout en apportant des nouveautés et une inspiration dingue ! 💪🏻😍
so clean my friend.
Incredible drumming, you have that x-factor that not many drummers have. Huge respect and please upload more of these videos.
Thank you! I plan on it!
@@AdamGrayDrums Great 🤘
The perfect sounding kit.
I don't play the drums but you're one of my favorite drummers I remember watching your drum cam with Texas in July and being fascinated, that was 12 years ago
I can’t stop watching this
Oh man I’ve missed this entire group so much. Beastly as always.
That trick at 1:59 is the old and gold Adam Gray spicy drum taste. SO awesome to see you playing again!
One of my fave drummers for a long time, ever since I first heard Hook Line And Sinner ☠️☠️☠️
Dead set the most inspirational drummer. Smooth as butter 😍😍
I am so glad to see the master at work again. I took so much inspiration from you back in the day. Especially from the UA-cam videos of you all playing on what looks like a gym floor
This Texas In July being back and seeing you drum again/killing it yet again with TIJ is the best thing that has happened all year. It’s the best
