We released Nothing Left To Love in 2019 right before the pandemic started, resulting in us barely getting to tour the album cycle. The plan was to have this video out a long time ago, along with a few other tracks from NLTL, but obviously with lockdowns and restrictions, plans changed. Either way, it’s finally here. I have two other playthroughs (Ghost, Monument) ready to post. The Patreon will be getting to see those first also.
Huge thank you to Zildjian, Vic Firth, and Vratim.

This video was made possible by the supporters of my Patreon. Patreon supporters got this video early, and also get a version of this video with just the isolated drum track. They also get the finished mix session I used, and consolidated stems to practice mixing real drums from this studio session. If that sounds like something you’d like, or you want to just support and see future videos like this, check out the Patreon. It’s loaded with content already. There’s currently over 50 exclusive posts of live drum cams, live drum stems from Counterparts shows, a Counterparts live set I mixed from the Private Room 1.0 Tour in Atlanta, and more.

Your drum parts are so incredibly inspired; technical and interesting yet serving the song perfectly without any unnecessary fluff. Can't wait for LP7!
My thoughts exactly!
👌
@@PelleLolWut Hate people who want to "serve the song" (most of the time that just means put the drums in the background) but not provide technically or anything interesting. Kyle instead delivers.
@@batman-sr2px let’s play a funk beat on a hardcore punk song as to not serve the song!
My favourite example of “just play the real drums bro”. From blindzor to a god on the kit, love seeing you still smash it man 🤙
I could watch you drum all day (in a non creepy way). The last show I went to before Covid was Counterparts in Southampton, England. Can't wait to see you guys back over here :)
My favorite drummer ripping it the fuck up. Last time I saw them was in 2019 and Kyle played flawlessly omfg such a treat to see haha
I'm clinging to the wings of nightmares
Detaching every finger one by one
Shaken awake to find our absence hasn't manifested yet
Longing for a sense of loss
Picking me apart like birds of prey
Where illusions will depart from unhinged jaws
Silent in the presence of your name
Rip the memory from my mind
Perfectly still but somehow running out of time
Keep your distance
From the flowers that will decorate my corpse
Undeserving of a chance to watch them thrive
Remove the sickness
Before it has a chance to run its course
I knew we'd never make it out alive
Clairvoyant only to delusion
As you salvage fantasy to fit your needs
You held my lifeless body to your heart
And convinced yourself that could feel a pulse
(Laying traps beneath my feet)
(I will chew through to the bone in my desire to be free)
Rip the memory from my mind
Perfectly still but somehow running out of time
Keep your distance
From the flowers that will decorate my corpse
Undeserving of a chance to watch them thrive
Remove the sickness
Before it has a chance to run its course
I knew we'd never make it out alive
Your shadow will keep me blinded by the light living in lies
Allowing fallen petals to turn black
Reflecting the colour of your insides
Rip the memory from my mind
Hold my lifeless body to your heart
And convince yourself that you still feel a pulse
Rip the memory from my mind
Perfectly still but somehow running out of time
Saw Counterparts open up for Parkway Drive some years back, Kyle is the real deal. Awesome set and hell of a show
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark...
Huh lol
@@jordanwendell6279reference to American Psycho
🙏 Most underrated comment 🙏
The peak of melodic hardcore
Damn Kyle this playthrough is so sick. Currently learning WON myself and this is gonna be helpful!!
cover? he wrote this song lmao
@@drumlessenamsterdam playthrough my bad
Kyle the best in the business love you man thanks for sharing
So much emotion in this playing...
I haven't watched your videos since 2009, but I'm glad this popped up in my subscription feed. This is absolutely insane, and your drumming has always been dope af.
Love how cleanly you play the kit. Doing those fills and all the fancy bells and whistles looks so effortless for you. Genuinely one of my favorite drummers ever, bro. Keep kicking ass. 🤘
its called mix and post production
@@fuckmylife4403 I'm just talking about his finesse on the drums. Not the production or anything like that, man
@@Infurno924 i know but the clean sound is there due to the mix and post production
@@fuckmylife4403 Ohh, I see what you mean. I actually wasn't meaning the sound quality sounds clean. It does though. But I was more meaning how clean he plays, dude is just right in the pocket every time he plays.
@@Infurno924 yeah, hes a beast
Crushed it! Love your playing style and technicality. The recording is fantastic. Can't wait to see the next videos.
Impeccable and absolutely brutal as usual!
This is the one I’ve been waiting for. So epic dude!
So sick, video is great and the mix is dope af!
Always loved watching how Kyle plays. and man that drum kit sounds amazing ahhhhhhh
Such a beast on the kit! Easily one of my favorite drummers! Keep the vids coming Kyle!
One of my favorite counterparts songs on my Playlist. Sick playthrough!
SO CRISP! Awesome vid Kyle!
So clean. Your drumming is nuts. Seen you guys a few times now with you in the band and you never disappoint. Love all the little finesse things you do on your fills too. Really inspiring!
All I can think of to describe your writing and execution is goddamn perfection. Listening to the parts is one thing but actually seeing you do it is unfathomably insane
its easy to listen to counterparts and appreciate how good their guitar work is but damn this drumming is something special.
Damn dude, that mix is so tight as well!
insane, love these videos 🤘
i've been here since the rockband waking the demon drums expert era, and seeing that you've come this far brings joy to my heart! awesome playthrough bro!

These drums couldn't have been written more perfectly to suit this song! Insane skill

Super super clean.

I've known you all the way since the rock band 2 days. Glad to see you're still killin it on the drums

@@siorai1 Thanks man
Love watching you play. Hopefully you guys come to Richmond, VA soon!
Me and my bestfriend started watching your videos when you did the Silent War cover, that’s crazy!!! We still thinking that you are the best drummer in the world
best song of the album, essentially getting an official instrumental version right there
Top tier!

Cool to see new videos!
Your playthrough sounds better than the actual album! So good!
I love this guy❤

Long time fan from the Silent War days 😂 still love your style and parts. Keep these play through videos coming! Video/audio production are top notch
Absolute monster behind the kit
One the best drummers in one of the best bands in the world right here. Hope to see many more great things outta these guys. Ever since I I downloaded Prophets on limewire in 2010 I knew these guys would do amazing things and they have. So much magic from this Band. Im so happy to see that our guy Kyle is the drummer for them.
BEST MODERN HARDCORE/METALCORE DRUMMER. HANDS DOWN.
Love how you added that dude who did the album in 8bit!
Bro…. I started watching your rock band videos years ago and haven’t seen blindz0r video in a looong time. All that said you became an incredibly talented musician and I’m glad to see your made your passion a career
Saw you in Adelaide with Northlane. Was serious blown away by how tight you are. Big fan now.
So good
ROCK THE FUCK OUTTA THOSE DRUMS KYLE!!!
Too sick 🔥🔥🔥

Here it is. Finally
Amazing sound 🙏🙏🤭
I remember when he was just a rock band drummer. I watched all of his videos back in the day

Jokes aside, this obviously turns a great influence to me create my own fills, great video, excited for the next ones.
Very clean,, 👍👍🤘🤘🤘
Sick drummer surprise

My favourite drummer
Wow 😮 dude 🙌

Brutal
me @ 0:59 singing out loud the chorus: "Keep your distance from the flowers that will decorate my corpse... Undeserving of a chance to watch them thrive."🤘
Please do Your Own Knife/Cherished/Ocean of Another!!! Your style is impeccable.
Wish we could get play throughs of the whole album lol
@@cgrind3000 I'm saying!!
First time I see you play, even though not my cup of tea ( it's rather extreme metal), I really enjoy your playing. I think your parts are quite unique
Extreme metal lol. This is melodic hardcore. And the best melodic hardcore that there is. Respect this man, and the band he plays for.
MELODIC HARDCORE.
@@kalebspain3000 nah. I meant that my cup of tea is rather extremer metal. Not that Counterparts is extreme metal.
Should have make that a bit clearer.
More clear.
Whatever.
Serious low end in that 8 snare sheesh
Always so fucking good.
Best in the game. so gd clean
Finally!!!
Fuckin top tier playing and a sick ingested shirt.
