Volumes Vahle-Johnkew Drums

- After picking up this album not too long ago, I became drawn to the drumming, particularly the orchestration of complex kick drum patterns underneath a straight 4/4 cymbal/snare groove. Vahle and The Mixture really stood out to me. After hearing the groove starting at 3:05 in this video, and especially the fill at 3:30, I knew I had to give Vahle a try.
Even if you're not a fan of metalcore and the screaming, you have to respect the musicianship of these guys. I found their songs sticking in my head for several days after listening, which is an accomplishment for djent music with so much complexity.

Yeah John! Why are you not making MILLIONS? You are so good! We all love watching these. Keepem comin!
Joe! Thanks for stopping by!
That was beautiful drumming, you could hear the voice and soul in the intricate cymbal works at the 2:10 section. You're a master of your craft sir :)
God I love Djent!!! Great job man!!! Can't wait to see the Meshuggah cover :D
The fact you covered not only tool but volumes also, such a sick cover, I needa get my drum covers going haha nice work man
one of my most favorite songs from volumes!!!! fucking love these guys
John, you are an incredible drummer man, all of your videos are so precise down to the last detail, amazing job with every one of them. And personally judging by your style and the genres you seem to enjoy playing I think a band you'd really enjoy covering would be Protest the Hero or even Periphery! Really hope you could, I'd love to see that! Sounds awesome man, keep it up!!
IRideaStegosaurus Thanks man! And good suggestions - Periphery has been on my bucket list for a while.
Awesome!! Can't wait to hear em!
Unbelievable work!! Keep posting more stuff!
Super mega good job, dude.. You are a beast!
great cover John,... as usual .. good to see your frequently uploading again...
just discovered you now and you got my sub buddy, excellent work and explanation videos!
Great cover as always man!
By the way, I'd love to see another Mastodon cover from you, Capillarian Crest for example would be awesome!
I definitely intend to play a Mastodon song or two for this series.
johnkew Really looking foward to it!
downsideup +1! Can't wait to see this
PLEASE continue it's exellent ! :) good job man !
Yes man! You're finally back!
Awesome awesome awesome!!!
Those 3 people who thumbed this down just jelly of that sick kit you got :)
Hey man love your covers! Always look forward to new content! Keep it up!
Yes he back
Just subbed after watching some of your Tool covers and love you are getting some djent in there too.
Keep up the stellar progression!
Incredible!
Amazing! Beautiful song!
KILLED IT.
I have to give this stuff a try too .
You're back yeey gj !
AMAZINNNNNGGGG!!!!
I love you man
Great cover man! You've got a new subscriber!!!
Great cover mate, and if you don't mind me asking, have you any other tool covers planned for the future?
Amazing cover of an amazing band!!(: I might recommend Tesseract for you they are a great band and have complex odd timings!! I would love to see you kill one of there songs(: Great playing keep it up!
Great suggestion - I'm listening to Tesseract right now actually...
johnkew Yeah, Nocturne would be awesome, but another band to look at would be The Contortionist, specifically their album Language. Language I & II played together would be a bit long, but it would be an amazing cover.
great!
Im looking for a new cyambal, how long does that aax crash last you? No cracks?
Not a fan of the song but great work anyway man! You killed it!
would be cool to see do something of the new AAL record
nice.
More tool covers!
Rosetta Stoned would suffice my need to watch you destroy the skins..
John! What's a video effect you used? Looks interesting.
It's a Luster Grade preset called "pimpfusion".
gostei.. muito bom :)
Please do a TesseracT cover
That's me

We need to be friends, John. Ha.
johnkew how come you are not in a band? too preoccupied in your job?
Yes, I have a job that I love (and went to school for a long time for, haha), so drumming is mostly a creative outlet. It's a great way to blow off some steam, or to decompress after a long day at work.
nice to hear that! :) but in the future, do u ever plan to hit the stage?
johnkew Mind if I ask what your job is?

That's impressive mate. I'm also trying to balance schooling with drumming. Right now, I find very little time during the week for drumming but I'm hoping that once I graduate and get a job (+some money), I might have a little more time to hone my drumming skills so I can drum at least 1% as well as you do :P
Awesome job, but please tune your snare up a bit!haha
Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnice.
Good work, awful song though.
Sim Syn disagree
It is a lyric song it’s not meant to “sound different”
