      Yea no that shit looked simple but I feel like there's a lot of subtleties I couldn't catch at first listen/glance. Also the fact he's calmer than fucking Buddha making it look like a walk in the breeze might be misleading. Who knows tho. I've been out of the drum game for a minute now, so. Still rocked.

      @Lane Grimes As a drummer myself, nothing in this song is extremely difficult, it’s mostly the jazzy phrasing. Most of the patterns in this song aren’t insane, but the way they are arranged is, like the pattern between the stack and the floor tom. Idk how much experience the guy above you has, be if they have a few years of experience playing drums, they’d be able to play along(maybe not everything that Matt is doing, but playing something that works). My point is that there isn’t a need to be pretentious, saying they probably can’t comprehend it. I love the drum part, but I’m terms of AAL difficulty it’s not that high up there.

      @Lane Grimes I'm aware of Danning Cruger effect (forgot how it's spelled correctly), but I'm playing guitar like 10 years, and 4-5 of them were alongside a good drummer. I never really played myself, but I wrote drums for drummer, so I really see all interesting stuff etc. This song is interesting, and maybe hard to remember, hard to adapt to the rhythm, but it's not hard mechanically. You're playing drums 10 years? Spend one week and you'll master this song.

      "...live in the halls of drumming legends like Dennis, Buddy, or Virgil" Lol, no, not quite. He's not doing anything ground breaking, really at all. But what he does do, and how he makes it work with his band's style of music, is great.

    • @drumsNmuscles
      @drumsNmuscles 2 роки тому +3

      @@disco4535 Totally fair enough. On this track he’s not necessarily breaking ground, but he has on SOOO many other tracks with other groups as well. He’s grown exponentially since the start of the pandemic almost showing everyone “yeah, I’ve been practicing A LOT during all this shit.”
      I’ve also just probably got a soft spot in my heart for this style of playing as well, but you can’t disagree that his playing is 100% TOP TIER. 👌
      And besides, he’s still young and has a lot of growing left to do.
