6 years later and it’s still the best drum cover I’ve seen online for Pretender, mainly on the energy and getting into the song. Everyone else have been robotic.
This is the best drum cover of this song I've ever heard. It's not just about the sound (btw that is perfect, of course) but it's also about the moves. You really enjoy this and we can see that. Absolutely perfect!
This is the greatest The Pretender cover I've seen in my life, you're so energetic, you play like Dave Grohl did!!!! ROCK ON!!! It's a long way to the top (If you wanna rock n roll)!!
Looking at this and then looking at his videos now...damn he's made everything better in every single video he makes great job matt, let's get him to 1 million subs this year
Best cover I've seen in a long time... I know nothing of playing drums (I wanna learn though), but you seriously brought it home... GREAT JOB! Tyler and Dave would be proud...
Dude, i've been searching drummers in the WHOLE youtube, this guy is just damn rare, NOONE mimics Dave's drumming like this guy, the others always want to improvise and try to look like PRO, that just screws, this guy, is perfect, he is a best drummer than the other, FOR SURE.
this vid is awesome, he puts so much pasion and feel into drumming, there is always someone better, but that is a reason to get better not a reason to put someone down, this guy feels the music aswell as playing iy incredibly well unlike the monotonous drummers out there
hey thanks for your awesome vid! i've watched many drum covers from different bands and songs, but you are the first ever who played a song without putting any selfmade bits in it! and that's what i want to see.
Come As You Are - Nirvana beat it - michael jackson Supersonic - Oasis When You Were Young - The Killers i started with those songs just over a year ago when i first learnt to play and now i'm doing what he's (above) comfortably, so practice everything as much as possible and have patience, is my best advice as one drummer to another. Great drum cover by the way @Matt McGuire! Your kit is great and unlike most other drummers, you have the talent to match it. Keep going, subbed.
This is freaking awesome! You know I've been reading a lot of BS below about hitting to hard and this and that but from one drummer to another this rocks man. Talk about getting the crowd into a live performance that's what a real drummer does. So I went to check out your other videos and noticed you have not posted in a long time. I sincerely hope the idiots commenting have not deterred you from keeping on because you are a badass!
this is the class of energy we should have not like boring us or just going crazy like if an earthquake just passed this is very good and otherwise this is a good cover :) cheers man
Holy Shit Matt, All I to have say is WOW!!! I play that song sometimes when I'm practicing and I'm craving to hear some "FOO FIGHTERS" It,s Great isn't it. Still don't get through it like MachineMatt, McGuire..This video. Great Work! I gotta share this with my Best Friend, and some of my Band mates. I never get through that whole song in one sitting without messing up a few at least. That was a Master piece. Singed: Jealous Other Drummer.
Dude it looked like you were trying to kill the snare drum lol but this is the best cover of this song that I've seen and your energy is that of Taylor himself awesome gob bro.
