Since I discovered AVA back in middle school, Atom has been one of my favorite drummers. I'm all for chops and all that, but drummers that drum with passion and energy have always spoken to me more than anything else
As a drummer myself. For atom to get at this level. Playing in perfect time yet playing what he wants. Wow. So difficult to do. But props to you atom. For putting in the work. Even before some of us posting were born. Very few achieve your status. God bless you man. I hope you get to see some of these youtube comments. You are loved by a lot of us. Even if yoy could not play anymore. We love you bro.
I come to listen to this every few months or so because it’s sooooo dang good! I love watching this guy play the drums so passionate about his craft. I wish there were more great videos of this guy playing.
I mean... just the physicality alone of this is absolutely insane. Let's not even get started on the complexity of the patterns and the perfect tempo he maintained from beginning to end. To say that he's a really solid drummer is an under-fucking-statement. He must be a host from Westworld or something... he can't be human.
Atom-You are an amazing drummer! AVA is not the same without you but that's alright. I've been a fan for 10+ years and bottom line: You freakin rock Bro! Thanks for living life to the fullest and inspiring the next generation of musicians.
Absolutely outstanding, I love your take on this track. Incredible playing and probably the most unique of this particular cover. Loved it and thank you!
Sir Atom Willard, You are a true inspiration to my drumming. Discovered you when you were at Danko Jones and love your job with Against Me! (obviously loved too your job with Offspring). Your energy and stamina always makes me impressed. A true rock´n roll drummer. Keep beating all the way!!! Huge hug from a Brazilian drummer/fan. One day I´ll achieve your greatness (or not... hahaha!) I´m trying hard. :)
Yes i setuju agree with you 😘 i love atom willard without you ava Angels dan Airwaves is not beautiful perfect i,m Isyraq Erlangga from Jakarta Selatan Gandaria city Indonesia
I can't stop watching this. So good. So much talent and so many years of experience.

Ava drum is just as good. For sure in same level. Would not call them middle school. But damn he is a beast

I've been in the game for 10 years, and this is one of the most impressive drum performances I've ever seen.
