You nailed the Sunday Bloody Sunday snare sound.
Also you should definitely do a video about Jeff Porcaro if you haven't yet.
If I remember, they've already done Jeff Porcaro.
Okay here me out, but I think a Third Eye Blind drum sound video would be amazing. Brad Hargreaves is mad underrated as a drummer (See - "Wounded" or "Losing A Whole Year") and the first 3 TEB records have INCREDIBLE rock drum sounds that are so integral to the sound of that band, records, and the time.
One of my favorite drummers and one of my favorite bands. As a drummer in an U2 cover band, I couldn't be more greatful for this video. Thank you guys for this and congratulations to the amazing work you do, as always!
My neighbour is a great-grandmother, she's also the drummer in a U2 cover band. She's thinking about quitting and joining a Slayer cover band instead because the U2 thing is putting her to sleep.
Man...changing up the drum and cymbal sounds plus he's right on with the U2 band. He sounds exactly like the drummer. wow.
Both snare drums sound fantastic!
Incredible kick sound!
Insanely accurate drum sounds as usual, but that kick sound is great in general. Gonna try to copy that sound for fun.
Would love to see you guy's tackle John Densmore's sound on the L.A. Woman album. These drum sound recreation videos have been a treat thus far, keep up the good work 👍
He was using yamaha recording customs that are stained black inside. Larry used Clear pinstripes
U2 is one of my favourite bands!
Congrats guys, you nailed it, as always!!!!
I have a question: Which In-Ear monitor are you using?
You should do a KISS Peter Criss Eric carr drum sound
I know you guys have already done Paramore but I’d love to see a video on the post Self Titled Album drum sounds (“after laughter”, and “this is why”)
Thank you very much for the high quality of your work and reportoire ) just chef's kiss ))
Amazing! Hyped to see this in my notifications. Thanks and go raibh maith agat!
Actually, when Larry used Yamaha recording custom drums in the 80s, the Yamaha factory reso bass drum head already came with the center large port hole cut. Great job as usual gentlemen 💪💪
Yesss, Larry is awesome lml
Do Bill ward of black Sabbath! Use the president deluxe kit for this drum sound of black Sabbath!
Fantastic! Do Matt Halpern next!! He's known for using Pearl Drums as well as Meinl Cymbals, and here's a suggestion based on his current setup:
Pearl Reference drums or Similar (P5 - Djent Is Not A Genre):
- 22x16 kick
- 13x9 rack tom
- 16x16 and 18x16 floor toms
- 6x14 Matt Halpern Signature Brass Snare Drum
Remo Emperor Coated on top, Remo Ambassador Clear as resos on toms
Remo Powerstroke 4 on Bass Drum
Remo Emperor X/Ambassador Hazy on Snare Drum
Cymbals: Zildjian (L-R based on P3: Select Difficulty)
- 20" Oriental Crash of Doom
- 18" A Thin Crash or similar
- 15" New Beat Hi-Hats
- 8" A Custom Splash
- 22" K Constantinople Medium Thin Ride Over-hammered
- K Custom Special Dry Stack (17" Trash Crash over 18" Trash China)
- 19" K Custom Dark Crash or similar
- 21" A Ultra Hammered China
Some things to note is that Matt's engineer, Adam Nolly Getgood tries to use close mics on every part of the kit, including splashes, stack and so on.
They have mentioned the use of sample reinforcement and trying their best to avoid it in order to produce the most natural sounding drum sound for what they do, since Matt plays a lot of ghost note based grooves. For the kick drum, at least for P4, they put a tent over the bass drum with a blanket to focus the sound of the kick and avoid bleed from the rest of the mics.
I really wish you guys would do one about Scott Rockenfield or Tommy Aldridge drum sound!! Those were 2 of my favorite drummers when I was getting into drums so please do a video about one of those guys!!
Here’s a couple requests I have:
- Aaron Solowoniuk and Jordan Hastings of Billy Talent
- Ronnie Vannucci, Jr. of The Killers
- Sam Fogarino of Interpol
- Matt Halpern of Periphery
- Matt Garstka of Animals As Leaders
- Gavin Harrison
- Bill Bruford
- Mike Portnoy
- Ethan Torchio of Måneskin
Im down for Ronnie Vanucci's sound on Hot Fuss
Hey.
I would eventually love to watch a video recreating the sound of Supertramp. Underrated.
so cool what you did w the toms! is there a way i can hear what they sounded like both in the room with no eq, and also what the processed sound is like without the gate? that's a whole new sound and technique i have never heard of or seen!
El video que todos estábamos necesitando
As a drummer, as well as a mix engineer, these sounds are fantastic. Would it be possible to let us all know the compression and EQ used on these recordings? I think I have an idea, but I would like to know if y’all use authentic gear from each time period of these videos?
Please do Scott Rockenfield!
Please recreate the drums from Bloc Party, their first two albums are especially great!
“This is a LP Timbal, but I use it as a crash”-Larry Mullen Jr.
Can you please do John Densmore?
He is one of my favourite Drummers and I think he has a real nice drum sound.
❤
Nice how about make a drum kit sound like Eric Singer from Kiss
Great job guys!
Love Larry and U2. To me, Larry is to U2 what Ringo is to The Beatles. While they primarily play for the song, they manage to create unique and interesting parts that are all their own!
Anotherr awesome videos as always. Here's some of my reconmedations for future videos.
Abe Cunningham from Deftones
Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, Mike Portnoy, Arin Illajay, and Brooks Wackerman all from Avenged Sevenfold
Dave Houghton, the drummer for Joe Jackson's hit Is She Really Going Out With Him?
Justin Foley of Killswitch Engage
And finally Travis Smith, Nick Augusto, and Alex Bent all the drummers from Trivium they played on my favourite albums and favourite songs from Trivium in particual the albums Shogun, In Waves, and The Sin And The Sentence.
Would love to hear a sound recreation of Jon Theodore!

Thank @ArtOfDrumming for shouting me out
we NEED the Boston drum tones
Can you guys do Jonathan moffett the drummer of Michael Jackson and other artists next?
I gotta know! How did the toms sound in the room? I’m considering doing this method on my kit
As always, make SUPER Top videos and content. Pascal is now a myth of mine. But sooner or later a video on the drums and sound of the legendary Mike Bordin? Why not?
I know I keep bringing it up, but I would LOVE a video on Stephen Morris of Joy Division and New Order.
Please do a video about Deep Purple´s Ian Paice sound! And Santana´s Mike Schrieve too!
Please do Nick Menza from Megadeth at some point!
You should do The Rev next
Can you do a custom drums sound kit Gretsch Bass drum low tuning toms medium low tuning snare 14x8 snare high tuning cymbals dark collecton cowbell
Tim-ball-ay
Next recreation video.
How to recreat Bang ( Song) drum sound with Tama drums & paiste cymbals that used in this video also without samples. Gorky Park is a Soviet Band from the Soviet Union ( USSR).
The Song Bang drumsound is challenging because it's tricky , the bass drumsound sounds like hitting a steel / Metal which means the Song starts ( intro) with Kicks drums sounds like hitting a metal.
Please do the sound of Will Champion - Coldplay
I’m feeling great I hope U2 I’m sorry I’ll see myself out now 😂😂😂
Can you do Jen Ledger’s current live drum sound?
You should do Todd sucherman next
❤
Share the tune bot settings please!
Y’all should Jimmy The Rev A7X
Need an episode on The Melvins Dale Crover
Can you jimmy the rev sulivan??
Alex Van Halen combined decades of kits through the DLR years the suggested drum set configuration era from Fair Warning to a different kind of truth. All though he’s a Ludwig/ Paiste endorse for decades for the basic set for drums Ludwig vista lite and for classic photos the right bass drum would 26x14 and left would be a 24x14.
Snare would be Ludwig superphonic 14x6.5
Tom’s 12x8, 13x9
Floor Tom’s 16x16 ,18x18
Now onto the accessories that aren’t Ludwig,
Concert Toms 8 and 10 inches set above the 12x8 Tom
Steve Weiss 12 and 14 roto toms set about the floor Tom’s
Tama low pitch 4 octobans set left of the hi hat for a combination of the decades kit.
Timbales 12 and 13 set below the octobans right beside the hi hat.
Onto Paiste cymbals
Paiste and Alex had a box set which I don’t know if it’s available anymore and second hand would cost a lot.
The set includes
15 2002 master sound hi hats
19 2002 Crash
20 2002 Crash
20 2002 Medium Crash
22 2002 Crash
24 2002 Al Signature Big Ride
20 2002 China Type
Here’s a transcription with Zildjian cymbals if you can’t get your hands on it.
15 A Custom Mastersound bottom with A 15 K sweet hi hat top
18 A Custom Crash
19 A Medium thin Crash
20 K Sweet Crash Ride
20 K Sweet Crash
24 A medium Ride
21 A ultra hammered China
20 A custom crash
He used Evans Hydrallic heads around this time.
Prayers to Paul Harrell.
It’s pronounced “timbahlees”, rhymes with tamales, not cymbals.
Gotta do pat wilson from weezer
Where’s Royalllllllll Blooooodddddddd????
No need to overdub the toms on Pride. Plenty of live versions during Joshua Tree tour and elsewhere to see Larry play the same live.
I hate to say this but Larry always used Paiste cymbals !!
I made a “you guys should cover Larry Muller Jr” comment a couple of years ago, so, thanks! What took you so long?
They didn't know who "Larry Muller" was.
Maybe not a super popular one, but I would love to see Steve Judd from Karnivool. Also Gavin Harrison from Porcupine Tree.
God the sound of the drums on Change is absurdly good
Still waiting for motörhead
You guys are the shit. There are some other niche unique drum sounds you haven't covered yet. One, would be 311, Chad Sexton. The open vent snare was a big deal in the 90's. Not a sicka fan, just saying. You guys do awesome work.
