Seriously awesome that one of the best drummers in the world posts drum cam videos of complete, unedited live sets with one of the best bands in the world.
In a similar vein, Polyphia's always posting official playthroughs of their shit, Clay's drumming too, which is awesome. Love the emphasis on creating digital content these bands have nowadays.
Very thankful to have such easy access to legendary drummers like this. I had to pay like $60 for Dave Weckl videos back in the day. Thanks Matt for the free access. Happy to return the favor in the form of album purchases, merch and live tickets.
Just did that after literally wiping my tears of joy after this video. Thank you Matt for the cam and the excellent non saturated, well balanced sound of your drum part. After listening to this video I just pre-ordered the Parrhesia Gold Nugget Vinyl and bought the Grid Dye T-Shirt just so I can have a dyed shirt too! 👕🤩
Yeah it was my first concert too as well as my first time seeing AAL Live. I'm in the very front. Burgundy shirt. It was rough being up there lol Definitely dope meeting Matt. He's a cool dude.
When they came to Dallas, the crowd was able to get it too. I was impressed. The only time I had ever seen someone get a crowd to successfully engage in polyrhythmic claps was on Snarky Puppy’s tiny desk performance on RUclips. 😂🎵🎶🎵🎶👏🏾
Matt Garska is so inspiring! He's inspired me to quit playing drums. Seriously, Matt is already considered one of the greatest drummers ever, and he's still so young.
I’m convinced this guy is one of the best drummers alive right now. Holy guacamole! Matt, you are a true master of your craft and I can’t wait to see you live.
Nothing against any of these musicians at all, but I vastly prefer listening to this versus the studio recorded material. It is a result of what is expected from the genre, but I love that I can actually FEEL and HEAR what Matt sounds like. All of the dynamics and beautiful touch. The studios often strip a lot of that away from these types of bands. That's not to say that the level of production on the records isn't impeccable, I just wish modern metal and rock production allowed the true sound and deft of touch of the musicians come through. Incredible stuff!
I was there! First time seeing AAL and holy shit did they deliver. Matt’s drumming is otherworldly. Shout out to Nate from Intervals who also crushed it.
Even outside of this video (which is obviously drum-centric), Matt really seems to be stealing the show. This latest album is the icing to that cake - he deserves all the love and attention! I say this as a lifelong guitarist and gigafan of Tosin & Javier
i'm gonna watch this at least 10 times in its entirety, or just my favorite songs in it, in the next like 2 years I already know, always go back to that 2019 drum cam that's on youtube even though its potato quality, thanks for posting
So freakin good, it's absolutely inspired playing, it really is. Me and a drumming buddy of mine get together every few weeks to watch drum vids on youtube and this was my favourite from our last session. Those left-hand hat and splash accents in Physical Education make me want to jump around the room! 🤣🤘
Truly mirror of yor hard work = strength and endurance on your technique. Lots of time there. We are lucky enough to see you while you creating more music alive as a generation : )
@@billmint8122 Because when the video was uploaded 9 hours ago, the setlist wasn't up yet in the description of the video along with the scrubber. This was for us early birds who watched the video right after it was uploaded.
It's amazing to me how much Tempting Time has evolved over time! I remember when the album first dropped, people talking about "good luck finding a human to play these drum parts".
I saw them with a previous drummer one of my first times seeing them.. I'm not sure which drummer it was. From what I understand they had a cpl. I remember they played Tempting Time cuz it was of my favs back then... I do remember the drummer as well as AAL as a band I would go keep seeing...For a loooong time... Friggin Amazing band. And Matt's just next level. Perfect fit.
this is the ultimate high for a drummer what a unit, matt has replaced lang as my fave timelord, punchiest accents n chops in town, what a great time and peak for music, thankyou matt for sharing
@MattGarstka Thanks so much for posting this! It is incredible to see what it looks and sounds like to play an entire show at a world class level. Drums are raw and un mixed... it revels so much about your playing. No hiding, and yet its freaking perfection!!!
Seriously awesome that one of the best drummers in the world posts drum cam videos of complete, unedited live sets with one of the best bands in the world.
He's the people's drummer
it really is. class personified.
Amen!!!
In a similar vein, Polyphia's always posting official playthroughs of their shit, Clay's drumming too, which is awesome. Love the emphasis on creating digital content these bands have nowadays.
I wish more people did it, I love eric moores drum cams, but he never post them anymore, gotta love it.
he's a metal-jazz-rock-prog-odd times-poly-fusion guy. astonishing
And Gospel ....
And Djent
and funk for SURE
prog and jazz = fusion
metal and rock = fusion
odd time = prog
He is a Progressive Drummer in short.
Even some good Ole Gospel chops. He can do it all.
50:40 that was actually me proclaiming my love for matt....
that had to be the most amazing show i have ever been to...
how he do that??
Lmao
I screamed at Javier "JAVIER YOUR BEAUTIFULLLLL" no homo. They're all beautiful beings, calling out Javier seemed fitting :)
Very thankful to have such easy access to legendary drummers like this. I had to pay like $60 for Dave Weckl videos back in the day. Thanks Matt for the free access. Happy to return the favor in the form of album purchases, merch and live tickets.
My thoughts exactly! I try to support the creators I like too - that's amazing to hear there are still some like that out there.
If I was this damn good I'd would want them people out there to know for free
That’s how musicians could make money back in the day … sad we can’t do that today
Just did that after literally wiping my tears of joy after this video.
Thank you Matt for the cam and the excellent non saturated, well balanced sound of your drum part. After listening to this video I just pre-ordered the Parrhesia Gold Nugget Vinyl and bought the Grid Dye T-Shirt just so I can have a dyed shirt too! 👕🤩
@@matthewmalphrus2906it aint sad
I was front row for this show, it was my first concert, blew me away!
I see you.
Yeah it was my first concert too as well as my first time seeing AAL Live. I'm in the very front. Burgundy shirt. It was rough being up there lol Definitely dope meeting Matt. He's a cool dude.
Hell of a first concert then.
@@Animefreakinfiniti7 Oh yeah so you had like 4 or 5 guys pulled over you by security then huh lol
@@SkylaneMusic lol, That was gnarly! Hopefully no one’s night was ruined by that.
I was mid crowd in front of tosin.
Musical human evolution - 1:14:38 - Complex polyrhythm claps 👏
Thats how you know theres a ton of musicians in the crowd \m/
So Sick!
7/8 Signature, complex polymeter claps.
When they came to Dallas, the crowd was able to get it too. I was impressed. The only time I had ever seen someone get a crowd to successfully engage in polyrhythmic claps was on Snarky Puppy’s tiny desk performance on RUclips. 😂🎵🎶🎵🎶👏🏾
don't forget about the polymeter goodness at 1:10:33 oof!
The claping is good but it's just in 5
If there was an olympics for drums, Matt would take 90% of gold medals.
the only ones he wouldn't win are for playing slow and playing the same thing for more than one measure....
@@RustyDodd lol salty much
@@MrTisjeboy ?
@@RustyDodd right, you need a different temperament for this playing. but what he is doing is way more complex any way...
@@RustyDodd if only you knew
no worries, i got you guys. you can skip the boring part and start at 00:01!
Matt Garska is so inspiring! He's inspired me to quit playing drums. Seriously, Matt is already considered one of the greatest drummers ever, and he's still so young.
It’s not a competition
Pick up those sticks and make music
quit being a cry baby and pickup your sticks and start practicing.
And he seems like a genuine nice guy too
Best drummer in the world rn
thanks man!
@@HerbalistGuybrush Matt, Is this you?
Holy shit. Gordian Naught might be my favorite drum track right now. Need that red miso playthrough!
NEED right hahahha
You ain't kiddin.
I would love to hear what Matt is listening to during one of their songs.
Clicks and guitars
Radio
Audiobooks
I’d imagine it’s what Tosin and Javier are playing at the moment.
@@kenmorgan4496 nah, impossible
I really want to see Red Miso live!
I’m convinced this guy is one of the best drummers alive right now. Holy guacamole! Matt, you are a true master of your craft and I can’t wait to see you live.
Matt's drumming is the thing that brings me tears of joy while I watch. Such beautiful playing.
if you have day job you cant play never like this..he is amazing
Ain't gonna lie, he's been killing it on the drums for the past decade or so and is by far my favorite drummer from this era.
Nothing against any of these musicians at all, but I vastly prefer listening to this versus the studio recorded material.

I'm not the biggest AAL fan, but watching Matt play is just awesome. That drum kit sounds absolutely fucking unreal as well
PLEASE NEVER TAKE THIS DOWN MATT. The amount I've learned just by watching this entire set once is crazy. Thanks a lot for this
This content is too good to be watching for free.
I was there! First time seeing AAL and holy shit did they deliver. Matt’s drumming is otherworldly. Shout out to Nate from Intervals who also crushed it.
Ahhhhhhhhhh yeaaaaahhhhhh!!!!! Come to the Philippines!!!!!!! Pleaseee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really huge huge huge huge fan here, mannn!!!!!
50:41 I LOVE YOU MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATT
wonder why nothing from weightless?
22:29 and 24:28, love the insane blast beats with the feet between the hands, creating 32nd notes. Unreal how clean it is at that tempo.
The fact that I can watch this for free is incredible! Thank you Matt! See you at the next closest show!!
The drum tech needs massive props on this setup. So sooooo tight!
I was at this show jumping in and out of the pit the whole time. It was incredible! Night of my life! Y’all are really good live!
Those ghost notes during the Thoughts and Prayers opening are incredible.
30:26 onwards that man is seeing into the space time continuum
Even outside of this video (which is obviously drum-centric), Matt really seems to be stealing the show. This latest album is the icing to that cake - he deserves all the love and attention! I say this as a lifelong guitarist and gigafan of Tosin & Javier
yeah legit: Matt's the most interesting thing about AAL nowadays for sure.
@@DavySolaris Matt is the most interesting thing nowadays period.
The guy is just astoundingly good. I have to giggle every time I see his videos. Wow!
I usually see youtube videos over 15-20 min and never wanna sit there and watch.. An hour and half of Matt? Count me in.
Ok, but can he play Lars parts?
I doubt it, its just too hard
When Tomas Haake calls out as being an inspiration for todays drummer must feel pretty fuckin good
They’re so unbelievably tight now. Wow.
I was literally just wishing I could relive this concert forever-it was a blast!
Careful what you wish for! Don't say that when there's a genie around! lol
Tempting time is still one of my favorite songs ever
i'm gonna watch this at least 10 times in its entirety, or just my favorite songs in it, in the next like 2 years I already know, always go back to that 2019 drum cam that's on youtube even though its potato quality, thanks for posting
It's sad we cannot hear guitars this well
but gotcha
God damn man, whats it feel like? To be in that groove like this, with those two guitarist just riffing, has to be absolutely incredible.
This video made me go watch tosin videos and I’ll probably go watch Javier videos next thanks Matt
I was here!!! I was as close as the 3rd row of fans to right of Matt!
Ending of Gordian Naught is 😮.
I've listened to this completely at least three times already, now's the fourth time at 0.75x just to inspect what he's doing better
So freakin good, it's absolutely inspired playing, it really is. Me and a drumming buddy of mine get together every few weeks to watch drum vids on youtube and this was my favourite from our last session. Those left-hand hat and splash accents in Physical Education make me want to jump around the room! 🤣🤘
Much love for Matt posting this view of the whole concert !I'm loving this!
Never gets old
Jack of all trades, master of all trades
Great show. In their PRIME.

Yo, you are a hero, bro! Rock on!
Why did you go through all this effort when the songs are already marked in the scrubber? Lmfao
@@billmint8122 because they weren't when i watched the video. and for mobile users.
@@billmint8122 Because when the video was uploaded 9 hours ago, the setlist wasn't up yet in the description of the video along with the scrubber. This was for us early birds who watched the video right after it was uploaded.
The Chronicles of Garstka!👌
he's so good
Hope to see the Atlanta show too!
Your drumming is just so damn creative and solid Matt!
It's amazing to me how much Tempting Time has evolved over time! I remember when the album first dropped, people talking about "good luck finding a human to play these drum parts".
I'd love to hear a recorded version with Matt's drum parts
I saw them with a previous drummer one of my first times seeing them..
I'm not sure which drummer it was. From what I understand they had a cpl.
I remember they played Tempting Time cuz it was
of my favs back then...
I do remember the drummer as well as AAL as a band I would go keep seeing...For a loooong time...
Friggin Amazing band.
And Matt's just next level.
Perfect fit.
Like how the crowd at 33:40 is clapping in 4/4 while the song is in 19/8 😂😂, at least it sounds that way to me haha
I hear it in 15/16
@@warwickaudio i'm sure you do
It is indeed in 19
this is the ultimate high for a drummer what a unit, matt has replaced lang as my fave timelord, punchiest accents n chops in town, what a great time and peak for music, thankyou matt for sharing
Amazing concert! Thanks for sharing your special gift Matt. Keep the videos coming please!
LOL Tosin - "Whats next? Echo?... ughhh"
Good to know I'm not the only one who has to retighten those 1-2 screws on the snare several times a nigh.
Love how casual MG looks while playing this stuff as if he's not playing some of the most technical drum parts known to man
The breakdown in The Woven Web always makes me make the stankiest stank face! 😖❤️
When I look at his hair and beard and I listen to his drumming... We lost Bonham, but we still have Garstka!
Playing the whole set is an inconceivable accomplishment. A feat of the body and mind.
wow 😮 wow 😮 wow 😮
mind-melting...
The amount of control is beautiful, nothing is forced. The finesse is never lost
Insane!
What a freaking animal. Best drummer that ever existed.
.. a traveler of both space and time
Actually mesmerizing.
It’s a Bird?, it’s a Plain?, Nope! It’s METAL MATT!!
It's always nice to hear TPOEATVON. My favorite AAL song. The first album had nice vibes. It sounds great with the chops on drums.
I like how they blend in Behaving Badly after Matt's solo
Thanks Matt!!
Disfruto cada momento de este video
1:10:08 is one of my favorite fills of all time. So damn clean.
I totally regret missing the show but glad you posted this cause this is the view I wanted to see. :)
This is Bad a**!! Dude your a beast!! Killer playing!! Love it!!
What an honor it is that you post the whole set
GOAT
ghost notes everywhere! wow amazing sound
Simplesmente não é humano... assustador!!! Só isso q vem na minha mente...
Matt es hoy el mejor batería del mundo.
Thank you Matt!
This is inspiration for my son...and myself.
Totally
Pure drum essence. Such a pleasure to witness one of the greatest hitting the garsfcuk out of the drums. 🙏
I love this guy xD is just amazing
My gramps told me about Venom, Black sabbath, My dad told me about death, I'll tell my kids about animals as leaders.
All while wearing crocs !!
Goat. 24:30 that a new kinda blast there with the kicks displaced
that outro is incredible!!!
leaving this comment so i can reply every time i get drunk and watch this masterpiece
This vidéo don't work on mobile phone for me, but work on my very expansive desktop ! :D
You're simply incredible dude. Thanks for being on earth on the same time I am and thus having the chance to learn so much from you in real time!!
59:12 The synchronization and precision of Javier's headbanging with Matt's cymbal bashing and cracking backbeat is insane.
A true gift to the world. Thank you so much for this.

18:54 I will never be able to play that, but goddammit that is the tastiest shit i will ever hear
