I’m currently his age at the time this was filmed…and I reaaaallly wish I was able to spend much more time behind the kit than I have if it meant getting to this level of playing and cleanliness. I know it takes hours and hours of practice but I also believe some people are just so naturally gifted.
Zach was my favorite drummer the band had, and I say that with no disrespect towards Cory, Shannon, or the host of fill ins. You nailed this. Holding that throne strong man, can't wait for this new album
so sick, that fill he does around 1:50ish he does the same live which amazes me. this is the shit right here. can we get some studio footage of Alan for the next album?????
@@bimse8013 Unhallowed was the first and best. Every album after tried to live up to it. I'm not talking about the difficulty level of playing the songs though it's just the most deep/emotional. Apex.
@@jimjones5394Eh everyone has opinions.... Ritual or Nocturnal are their peaks personally. I'd say unhallowed is probably their fifth strongest effort.
This is fucking tight, and not a single hit wasn't accounted for with those mad skills. Hell yes! I posted this to my wall after some of my family argued that metal has no rhythm. I'm happy to say that, to the chagrin of my aunts and uncles, I think I can convert some of my more sheltered cousins as they agree that this style of drumming was unlike anything they had ever seen, and incidentally intrigues them greatly. Keep it up Alan- you make a bassist like me wanna play drums hahaha!
What Hi Hats are those? I'm in the market for new ones. All the A Custom crashes I've ever owned cracked within a few months. Still, I love how clean the A Customs are.
am i tripping on some bad acid or do you switch from a left handed set up to a right handed set up? thats amazing. im totally digging the left handed set up for TBDM. left hand path, evil hahaha.
Chris Kirshbaum good on ya dude. I get it. It’s Cookie Monster Metal, but as a true musician you can’t deny the talent here. Thanks for recognizing real
What are you using as far as headphones? What does that connect into? Do you have a amplifier for the headphones ? Problem I had when connecting headphones to mixer was they were not loud enough.
This is why most drummers are huge metal fans... it's by far the most fun genre to play besides jazz in my opinion haha... look at his fucking footwork kids!!!

Love this guy's swivels. Perfect foot technique.

Spot on 👍🏻
IVE LOST MY PUDDING ONCE AGAIN!!!
SPIDER MAN!!! I'VE LOST MY PUDDING ONCE AGAIN!!!
XD
KILLERBOOTS fuck now im gonna always hear it.. its funny as fuck tho xD
PRAYING FOR A BUUUUTTTT INHAAAAALE
Geez cut it out guys it's getting old
This song is so physically draining on all the limbs ... and this guy makes it look effortless .. Subbed m8
Shannon helped with getting him in the band so you know he's got some chops. Well done, bro.
Alan's technique is better than Shannon's, even. And Alan's faster
Does anything phase this robot. the speed... The unholy speed.
Agree
You should see him play Receipt. Makes this look slow
And it's funny because another drummer wrote and played this all drummers are good 👍
This song has the most beautiful and memorable melodies, can't stop hearing this
I always come back to this video at least once a month it’s that good. His blasts are so powerful, he gets serious height on them
all hail the new drummer of TBDM \m/
I've watched this a bunch of times tonight. Can't stop watching from 2:28 - 3:04. Unreal performance, Alan.
Zach was my favorite drummer the band had, and I say that with no disrespect towards Cory, Shannon, or the host of fill ins. You nailed this. Holding that throne strong man, can't wait for this new album

Flawless, just amazing. Im not even into this type of music. Great work.

Awesome technique man.
I got stoned with this dude a couple of weeks ago in Odessa. He's awesome.

Sweet technique dude. Your wrists are beautiful
So much more grind than the poster. Love you buddy
Damn, that was just clean AF!
Tbdm has the best drum parts
The best cover
Your sticks move as if they have built in batteries, great job man
Love that part on 2:35. Awesome!
that bass drum sound its amazing!!!!
Let me rephrase: You -deserve- more views man!
those binders are filled with notes and essays on blastbeats, triplets in different dialects and hardware-tightening techniques
Nailed it dude!
You can't fool me. This is just the inside of a drum machine.
At 1:37 the double bass looks like it’s sped up 5x 😂 what a machine of a man
Damn dude looks so effortless. You make it look easy hahaha
damn man. pretty much flawless!
you really need some more views man!
Great song
Awesome ! \m/
Amazing

Not a fan of the music, but huge respect to this drummer and his amazing abilities on the kit.
Chris Kirshbaum good on ya dude. I get it. It’s Cookie Monster Metal, but as a true musician you can’t deny the talent here. Thanks for recognizing real
Fucking awesome man, great job
Alan, July 11th at the Truman can you guys please play either Dave goes to Hollywood or miscarriage?
This man is half machine, half accountant from what I'm seeing.
Great choice man
What are you using as far as headphones? What does that connect into? Do you have a amplifier for the headphones ? Problem I had when connecting headphones to mixer was they were not loud enough.
hello 2021
why only 1k subs???
Sick!!
damn you're good!
Since you use Remo heads, are you using a Powerstroke 3 batter head on your bass drum?
took me a minute to figure out he wasn't leading with his left foot and the video of his legs is flipped horizontally for some reason
Wicked drummer!
Nice
Please tell what drumsticks you're using and what length they are?
I always think it looks like he's sitting so low...then I realise what the fuck do I know
Insane
cant stop listening, fucking tight
Sick man
What throne do you have in this video?
Good Job men!
Sick!
Fucking amazing my idol never disappoints

Machine more than man ! What else can i say ?
Are those Demon Drive pedals you're using?
Wow.
dude....sick....i was kind of upset bout shannon leaving but....its ok now :)
Wish i could form a new band and you be my drummer ❤️ 👍
Do you stuff your bass drums and crank your heads up for triggering? Just curious, I used to do that but now I'm a little different.
Erik Herman yes and yes
is this your audition tape?
This is why most drummers are huge metal fans... it's by far the most fun genre to play besides jazz in my opinion haha... look at his fucking footwork kids!!!
i thought you were talking about more 'views' like angles so thats where the camera comment came from
what kind of sticks is used here? they look super long! or is he just small?
like 5a`s or something
The stick i got from him was an Vater 5AN but not sure if it's the same that he uses here!
You are such a fucking machine. I wish to be as good as you one day.
🤘🏼🤞🏼😈
