One of the most consistent haircuts in rock drumming
Holy balls that's brilliant...
*A1 commenting sir*
Funny. My hair is always in the same exact place when I get done playing . Never worry about it anyway
Love it
Larry Mullen Jr. agrees.
Playing like they double-parked their tour bus.
I’m weak asf🤣🤣
Lmfao! Best comment award goes to you 🏆
Hahahahaha, it took me a while, but then almost died😂😂
The time only seems weird now cuz they are older and not jumping around like lunatics. If you go watch their 90's performances it's almost identical, but they are running around the stage the whole time.
lol
Technique, groove, rudiments, are what all professional drummers have. But sound is unique, that's why I praise him
Yep, sound is in the hands. ✌️
I hope you don't praise his horrible rushing and terrible grasp on tempo and feel....
@@incubrianyou’re saying this about the Jesus Christ pose drummer btw
@@incubrian I've really been working with metrone lately and I notice the band started pulling him faster on the guitar solo and he didn't hold them back. So the chorus at the end of the song is definitely faster than the first chorus. Matt Cameron is solid as a rock but also kinda boring as a rock to me. I do love his drumming in soundgarden some real cool stuff he played with them.
Gotta admit though, for as fast as this tempo went, Matt's deep in the pocket with flawless fills.
Yeah ikr. Idk why matt gets so much hate. Dave was amazing, but so is matt, they're just different styles of playing
@@zacharyray7166 Yes, its flying - Eddie can barely keep up. he must have a CLICK. Hmmm?
Tempo is off and on
@@zacharyray7166 Matt is way better than Dave any day of the week. And the song is much better fast. 😮
@@poohead8022 The OG Dave that played this on TEN killed it and the live versions just had a better energy .. it was funky, those 16th rolls on the hi hat are sick go back and listen.. this feels rushed and constipated
Living the life, drummer for Soundgarden and Pearl Jam.
This man is practically the foundation for grunge rock drumming.....quite the title
Incoming Dave Grohl comments
he's the best
@@MrSps666 hes amazing but dont forget our beloved sean kinney
@@timmynator8036 or eric kertz
Matt Cameron probably plays the song at the exact bpm's the guys in the band ask him to play it. Those things are settled well before the gig, so I think it's not Matt's fault but Eddie/Mike asking.
It's not about the bpm but Matt just doesn't have that 'swing' feel or should I say 'funk' feel where Pearl Jam were big because of that style. It is called 'JAM' for reason though. Now when Matt behind the drum PJ sound like KISS. Like 70's rock band. I'm not saying he's a bad drummer, he just doesn't blend with the band. It's like Larry Carlton with Fourplay. The fans loved Lee Ritenour as so the old PJ fans love Dave A. Dave A can fill what empty space in the PJ song. Just listen to this Even Flow version, it felt stiff and cold not funk as like they played long a go with Dave A.
you could be right on that one! .. all in preference i guess
Hey Tribe... just to note. They're all different players than what they were 25 years ago. It is faster than the recorded version. And at a certain point, swing changes with tempo... different feel.
they're probably so fucking bored of playing this song that they get creative by changing things to avoid killing themselves.
And a whole lot o COCAINE ❄️❄️❄️🥴 lol!!! I kid I kid !!!
The best Soundgarden Drummer EVER.
It’s a shame PJ doesn’t do more of what Matt’s strength is IMO...odd time grooves...he churned out amazing odd time grooves with Soundgarden
The “odd” time signature of Soundgarden is partly what made me fall in love with them. They’re so groovy. I was involved in some concert and marching percussion through high school and college, so I thought Soundgardens music was such a breath of fresh air from your standard 4/4 rock songs. Absolutely amazing
Basically all songs Matt writes on guitar have odd playing styles like evacuation and the fixer
It's kinda hard when your lead singer is dead
@@dakotajensen181 What he meant was that he wishes Pearl Jam could make more songs in the style that Matt Cameron was able to do in Soundgarden this had nothing to do with him going back
Matt was a beast in Soundgarden. The more odd the time signature the better.
This song loses so much of what I love about it when played this fast.
vahnn0 I agree. Matt's a great drummer but his speeding up many of the songs takes away from some of the experience.
I agree, great musicianship all round but prefer the tempo down a bit with more groove.
They play every night sets of +25-28 songs. This is the only way to be able to do that.
I used to wonder if I was the only one who thinks they play Even Flow too fast live. Loses the groove that he studio version of the song was famous for.
Just press ctrl + shift + j on chrome and paste this in and press enter.

Problem solved.
1:00 when he hits that crash I feel it on my forehead
😂😂😂
😂
One of the most consistent drummers out there......and with the best tone. Great player
lmao
On a positive note, I love the sound of his drums, especially the toms.
The cymbals sound pretty good too
facts, i really think the wooden hoops work wonders
A ray ayotte era ( 1992 to 1998 ) ayotte customs made by hand in BC canada. Very sought after drums these days as Ayotte Drums are a shell ( hehe ) of what they used to be quality wise. My dream kit.
@@metube3489 Those are Yamahas dude. Matt is endorsed by Yamaha and Zildjian.
@@poopguy6208 never done that but I don't doubt it at all. They sound fantastic. Might have to get that on my new kit
One of the last active badasses of that era of amazing rock drumming. One of the all time greats!
Everyone shitting on Matt's drumming has probably never seriously played a drum set in their lives. He's incredible, one of the greatest modern drummers. You really have to listen to his Soundgarden stuff to really appreciate his drumming. Dude's a total monster.
Nothing special. Sorry, man!
He doesn't display very technically difficult playing in Soundgarden, but there's a feel that I've found in it that really stands out to me.
For instance, I heard a Temple of the Dog song way back (like, I didn't even pay attention to band names then, let alone know bandmates by their names), and something about the drumming really stood out.
Another time, I hear some songs from Pearl Jam's Riot Act, and I got the same feeling, but had no idea it was the same drummer.
Then I played Spoonman on Rock Band, and I was sold. That and Pretty Noose were the most fun tracks to play in all the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games i played.
ILikeWafflz it's his timing that makes his drumming unique. He makes odd time sound like straight time and uses odd time in his own drumming in actual straight time songs in many instances. He's not the absolute greatest of all time, but he's A LOT better than a lot of the PJ fans give him credit for. I will admit his groove a lot different than the groove in PJ songs which is probably why people talk shit on him but it's a talented groove
Also, the jam part of Reach Down by Temple of the Dog has some awesome drumming.
I'm a full time drummer and I'm not crazy about Matt on this song. But he is a way better and far more accomplished drummer than Dave Abbruzzese. I think it's just the fact that he completely changed the style of this song with his drumming, and I personally don't like it. The chorus sounds weird when Eddie tries to sing it so fast.
But Cameron is a sick drummer nonetheless. Anyone who's listened to a soundgarden record would know that.
Fuck off lol. Matt has a white knight, how cute. Matt IS a monster, but not with PJ. Now go back to drinking his ball sweat.
Matt Cameron was put on earth to play the drums. Effortless groove, one of the best ever.
Matt's fills are so unique. He has this great habit of throwing in unexpected accents - his tone is also very recognizable. You know immediately when it's matt cameron drumming
I wish we could see this perspective on Soundgarden's Jesus Christ Pose.
Kelli Thomerson how about ticks and leeches by tool
Or Like Suicide
Dave's the best.
@@brandtt9263 Matt Cameron playing Ticks and Leeches? Lol
Been reading some of the posts around the tempo and thought to weigh in. I've got about 30 years of experience playing drums both in live and studio gigs and experienced both sides of the situation. Sometimes a band will opt to play a song faster simply because it sounds (and feels) better in a live situation than at the original tempo is was recorded. We've also slowed songs down when played live to get a heavier feel as opposed to the original recorded tempo. I fully agree that "in the heat of the moment", tempos can and do get pushed (I'm certainly guilty of this in my gigs at times) but Matt is a seasoned pro; this is no doubt a conscious effort on the band's part to push the tempo. It's actually nice to see they have the freedom to do this since they aren't locked into a click track or sequencer for this song and just playing "live"! It's a good discussion though!
Also a seasoned drummer and 100% agree....Matt is as Professional as it gets!
They do it in a lot of the songs,i think it also depends on the energy in the room..
Crazy coincidence but he played Soundgarden songs at faster tempos live also. Especially “Black Hole Sun” being such a back beat, lazy feeling song, speeding it up really ruined it for me.
William Fotiou for sure. Just strange. Some songs sound good a little pepped up live. Not “Black Hole Sun” though. The songs identity lives within the sludgy tempo.
damn bro. thats crazy but i do t remeber asking
Matt Cameron has always been my favorite drummer....met him once in miami in the early days of soundgarden at yesterday today records couldn't have been nicer..great drummer....
I have been lucky to see this kit master in both Soundgarden and Pearl Jam. Rock solid drummer!
So many great drummers among those 90s alternative rock bands: Cameron, Grohl, Kinney, Chamberlin, Abbruzzese. The list goes on.
Sean Kinney
I'm so glad someone mentioned Sean Kinney, he's so underrated
@Keegan Dunphy
What band?
@@shanesawyer5103 He's the drummer for Alice in Chains
Keegan Dunphy
Oh yeah, he was great. My favorite 90’s drummer is either Jimmy Chamberlin or Matt Cameron (for Soundgarden, not PJ) but there were a lot of great 90’s rock drummers.
I have to agree with some of the comments here. When I listen to this guy it's like seeing black and white, great but black and white picture. When I listen to the drumming from the studio recording it's like I'm riding and swaying on the fucking rainbow of groove, dynamics and even the pure sound of the drum parts.
The studio recording nuances/subtleties can't be duplicated live, and it's too slow for a live show. Two choices, play it studio tempo and put people to sleep, or speed it up to add energy and keep people rockin'
Such an amazing drummer...his performance on superunknown is still one of my favs to this day
Dude, I’m a guitar player who plays other people’s drums from time to time when they’re left at my house. That’s my relationship to drums and even I know Matt Cameron is unbelievable. Wonderful precision without losing any feel. There’s a lot of Soundgarden songs where he’s doing some pretty tricky things too, always tastefully though. If I had to pick one drummer to build my own super group with I believe it would be MC.
the guy's a complete animal.
Matt in Sondgarden is godly, but with Pearl Jam he doesn't have that same effect, still one of my favorite drummers.
for me , like suicide song is the best drums ever ...
Pearl Jam is pretty straight forward rock. For me, that gets old as a drummer after a while.
eddies timing just sucks fucking ass
Totally agree. Matt was suited perfectly for soundgarden, his ride work was incredible. But for the first pj album I really prefer Dave’s drumming. He was a fucking rock star
mrpicky510 you do realise Dave A didn't play on the first record, it was Dave Krusen.
In terms of drumming, songwriting and musical creativity Matt Cameron is a total badass and a legend. People just don't like change.
I think you should add to that that he's probably a great friend to hang out with. All the Dave fan boys don't know if he's an asshole and impossible to tour with.
Yeah. Never a fan. No feel for the song. Just playing random shit within the groove but never feeling it.
Yeah. It’s lacked since Cameron came in. It would be difficult to argue otherwise. Just think of Verses and Nocode. Those albums wouldn’t be the same. Cameron isn’t as tasty
@playlists - The original groove is great if you're stoned and listening to the song while laying on the couch. When you're at a high energy concert, the song would put people to sleep at its original tempo. Looks like the crowd in this video agrees with the way Pearl Jam is presently playing it live.
Nah he just isn’t the right sound for Pearl Jam’s songs. Pearl Jam should be loose, groovy, and dynamic. Matt has one setting which is loud and he is so damn up tight. Doesn’t help that all the live versions of pj songs are literally 200bpm all the time too.
Matt is my favorite rock drummer from the 90s. He has that finesse in his playing that sets him apart. It's really cool.
I’m a guitar player, but when watching and listening to other bands my eyes and ears are always on the drummer. That’s who you groove to. And Matt is one of the best
ive been diving into shuffles lately the amount of tiny details in drumming is insane
Makes sense....drummers are driving the "bus". Seems logical you are natural inclined to focus on the rhythm
I LOVE his playing. Such a solid rock drummer.
Too True Man,TOO DARN TRUE! I’m going to agree that this effort to speed up tempo is definitely not Matt Cameron’s alone.QUITE SURE COULD PLAY @ the Speed of the song when it was initially introduced. AND BE DARN GOOD AS WELL. SO NO ONE ELSE NEED MISS DAVE ABBRUZZESE, ARE WE CLEAR?
The awesome part about this is that you get to see part of the gig from drummers perspective, it's really cool.
The large K custom hybrid crash Matt uses on his right side is one of my favorite cymbals of all time. I have mine paired up with a 17” k dark on the left and the pair are just 🤤. Add a 21” k custom ride into the mix and you’re ready to take over the universe.
What ride cymbal is that ?
Undoubtedly Matt is extremely technically competent... But I still prefer Abbruzzese......
This is what I've been waiting for! Been into SG since the beginning, Matt is the finest modern rock drummer out there....wish there was more content of him doing his thing..so much to be learned from him. Thanks guys.
Chris Infusino every one always compared me to him check out some of my low Budget basement drum covers if your bored enough
Dave Abbruzzese drove pj during what I consider their best albums. Matts good but Dave had that something that for me made it
You are so bad my friend
You are a begginner PJ fan
@@adannalaz9494 go f*** yourself
Yes Dave let the songs breath Matt is a great drummer but speeds all there classics up to fast.
@@okalright8980 the Band prefer speed up theirs songs. Is not a Matt decision.
Please understand
@@adannalaz9494 ok makes since now thanks 👍
Always a blast to watch Matt . Such an awesome drummer . Nails everything.
Matt is one of the most underrated drummers of all time. His groove is impeccable
Groove??? You mean how flat he plays... If you want to hear groove, look for Dave Abbruzzese or Jack Irons. Matt Cameron makes no effort in playing with some details ... He really killed a lot of PJ songs with his style..
alvarojam84 I have a problem with how fast he plays the song here and he isn't playing with those little intricacies in his playing that I've heard with Soundgarden. Listen to Jesus Christ pose, he's a great drummer
Musa Tariq It was the band that started speeding up the songs. when he first joined they played at a normal speed
saying that his groove is impeccable made me laugh. He isn't tight, let alone paying attention to his sound and feel. I love PJ, especially the 90s era but Matt Cameron isn't underrated. Not really much to rate him under for.
Casper van Helvoirt listen to some Soundgarden, especially Badmotorfinger. Pay attention to his drumming, try it yourself; he's an incredible drummer. One of the greatest for 90's Rock.
not quite my tempo
The speed here and the feel really bothered me tbh but hey to each his own. And with THAT being said..
NOT MY FUCKING TEMPO!!
Haha
*vedder throws chair at cameron*
Rushing or.....
LoL
in YT settings use speed 0.85 (quite My tempo lol)
beast
Matt was well known as a top drummer even back in the very early days of Soundgarden..late 80s
Of course he was. Getty Lee from rush wouldn't of had him play on his solo album if he wasn't. I just hate the tempo
he plays this song at.
@@happytimeknowledgenot him, them*
Listen to the guitars, they're playing it quicker than in the record
One of the best ever, MC is a legend!!!!
While Matt might have been more “creative” in Soundgarden, he’s still a drum god. Consistent power with every hit.
Matt Cameron is a great drummer no doubt. However, I have always preferred Abbruzzese with PJ.
He just had a great groove and unique style with his hi hat and splash cymbal accents.
Both excellent drummers, both very different.
Abbruzzese for PJ!
Cameron for Soundgarden!
@@joandrumz3176 Indeed! You reading this Eddie? You fucked up by firing Dave 30 years ago and now your band sucks. Time to swallow your pride and pick up the phone.
@@joandrumz3176 Agree 100%.
YES! AGREE 💯 Love Cameron too, but Dave was a great match. Sucks he couldn’t stick around longer in PJ
I couldn't agree more! I think the exact same thing!
Matt is great, rock solid, talented, but for Even Flow my heart still beat with Dave Abruzzese.......
the best
Completely agree. Those plates need some loving too... What's the rush?! Perfect drummer for Soungarden though... Love this guy, really do, but please bring Dave back for these songs....
Dave Krusen played on the record
I'm with you. I'll even deeper: respect all the way, but can't understand the fuzz about Matt. At least when playing this old stuff, I think he slaughters everything with this up tempo, it loses all the depth and feeling.
Dave is a jazz drummer now. I saw him at the Blue note in LA. Greg Bissonette did a great job teaching him and his had swing, not to be found in this version.
Did he play a vey light vintage Ludwig Jazz Festival snare drum!!??
If you are a drummer, you will know how good Matt is, this is great!
I am, I do.lol
Until you see Dave Abbruzzese x)
I respect and love Pearl Jam album with Dave A. But why He is no longer in any other band with His great talent?
@@LyricalBlock32 The best drummer they had.
@@adeKramadibrata
That’s a good question, actually.
(Possibly his rock star attitude?)🤫
I rewatch this video every once in a while to get inspired head to practice, Matt is the man!
Masterful!! Insane energy, what a groove - sick fills 😎🤘🤘
Great to see your still
rockin' the Kep Matt!
Such a great drummer. More videos like this please!
Love this! So grateful that I was there! ❤🎶🎵
I just got the Matt Cameron Signature sticks for my birthday (3rd of May)!
What a great way to see a concert…. This guy is unreal!
So true!
His sticks are one of the BEST pairs I have ever played. Going on like 3 years now. And he plays Yamaha Oak kits too, my man... =)
They are a stupidly nice set of sticks for sure.
They’re lucky to be blessed with such a phenomenal talent. One of my VERY favorite drummers.
Matt Rushing-Tempo Cameron
Kick Ass POV! Love watching him play. He's on stage, I'm at local bars... here's to Matt!
Matt's my favorite -- just effortless power and groove.
I'm so grateful for the 60fps version of this
Great Vic Firth. Matt Cameron the best drums pearl Jam and soudgarden. Thank you. I am from Brazil. Vic Firth são as melhores baquetas do planeta.
Man he sure uses that whole kit! Awesome.
It's Eddie that wants the tempo faster. He said in an interview, when asked by the interviewer of why the tempo on Even Flow is more sped up now than before, Eddie said that he's tired of performing the song and want to just get it over with.
Is that why this live version lasts for nearly 7 minutes?
After every Eddie Vedder interview I swear to myself not to read another one. :-/
same like nirvana when theyre playing teen spirit
Richard Goodall the solo is very long
Al fin encuentro una opinion con cerebro
Finally Ive get a smart opinion
Thanks friend
phenomenal!!
What a powerfull groove. I stopt the song 5 minutes ago and im still whipping..
Great Drummer, great band
MC did some great stuff with Soundgarden but NO ONE can play evenflow like Dave Abbruzzese. PJ’s best drummer by far.
While Dave was great, Dave K had impeccable taste and groove.
Agreed - sucks that they chose to shit all over him.
I love Matt's drumming! One if my favorite rock drummers ever!
Amazing snare sound! ❤
Matt has such a cool vibe here. I love seeing these guys from the 80s/90s still crushing it!
Dave Abruzzese owns this..Matt is good with Soundgarden, but DA is Pearl Jam! was Pearl Jam
Paul Jason 100% agree!!!
Slower is waaay better. The original album Dave Krusen version was pretty neutral (he had trouble recording it). They re-recorded it when Dave joined (it's the version that starts with Eddie's, "Waaaaahhhh," and that version is used for the "live" video, and the grooviest version.
@@caseybhouse ah that makes a lot of sense now... thanks!
Evenflow will ALWAYS be Dave’s song.
The only drummer worse than Matt Cameron that Pearl Jam has played with is Dave ... Grohl, but he doesn't really count.
I think the drummer and the vocalist has the hardest job in the band, in my own opinion. Not saying Jeff awesome bass and Stone awesome guitarist and Mike McCready 🎸 totally incredible and of Boom's awesome B3 piano playing!! I truly love and appreciate all bands members. Thank you for sharing this awesome video 😊💓🤘✌️
Thanks for the love and comment 🌹🌹
Yes I agree drummers are my favourite band members and for me always the coolest haha but you're right this is hard job. Drummer always hiding in the back but if he make mistake everybody will see and hear. Drummers btw are real athletes playing for 3 hrs this is good workout. Sorry if I make mistakes not my first language 😅
@@curious5254 I understood everything you said, thank you for responding! Drummers are awesome 🥁!! 😊💓🤘✌️
I saw these guys back in the day when I was like 21. I had no idea he was playing for them yet. I was stoked to see him come out on stage.
¡¡Gracias Matt and Vic!!
Groove total!!!
Por isso amo o Rock, a energia essa!!!
O melhor do show, não é estar na plateia mas sim na posição do câmera kkkk

One of the best drummers of the 90s

Love the UPtempo!! Fresh live energy.
Sensacional e vigorosa a apresentação de Matt Cameron. Parabéns 🇧🇷
Class - enough said.
Abbruzzese COME BACK PLEASE!!... you're the best drummer of pearl jam
Those drums amazing!
The drums sound amazing.
By far the best musician in that band
Nestas horas que a sensibilidade de um grande baterista aparece, pois enquanto existem os "frontmans" lá está cadenciando com suas viradas que fazem um dialogo perfeito, métrico e simples da Banda* Pearl Jam... Que venham mais vídeos como estes, sou guitarrista e, tocar com um baterista assim é um sonho.
This dude has easily been my favorite rock drummer since I heard my first Soundgarden tune in 92. Fucking legend!
omg i love this dude!
It's incredible not to think of Dave A in this song... Dave looked like he had 4 arms while drumming. Matt plays it just to quiet and double the speed 😖
I can’t believe people are bagging on Cameron. He is one of rocks all time greatest drummers.
Mikael Lewis indeed!!
Yes he is a great drummer in soundgarden but not pj
He is, no denying that, but Dave Krusen still played this song better.

The video , The Drummer , and the Drumsound 🔥
Matt is an underrated drummer
Underrated by who? The body who arguably rates drummers recognizes this man as one of the best. Album sales and concert attendance makes your comment absurd. Your comment is so cliché that it appears beneath almost every music video on UA-cam. Maybe we should rate the morons who parrot your comment. You are one of a million dipshits. Congratulations!

Perfect sound!
Cameron is the best drummer in the world today, top 5 all time. No doubt.
And why did he ruined this song, and almost all of the 3 first records??? He plays flat, no emotion at all, no details... He is an excellent average drummer, but his style is too flat. Dave A. and Jack Irons used to play with passion...
Matt Cameron, descaracteriza todas as músicas antigas, nem fica parecendo a banda. Saudade de Dave abrussezze, ele sim tinha uma característica única e era brilhante.
@@Canibrerdo tenho vários, mas essa é minha opinião, não acho ruim vc ter a sua e nem por isso te acho chato, só são pontos de vista diferente
His bass drum is always bang on metronomesque, and hes brilliant at weird time signatures. Both rare in rock drummers.
Most solid, consistent drummer out there. plays in the pocket and doesnt make a mistake. love it
