Evan Chapman - "Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste" by Norma Jean (Drum Cover)

www.evanmchapma...
One of the most influential hardcore bands ever. Period. Another big shoutout to my brother who assistant produced Norma Jean's new CD. This song makes me wanna punch things. It rules. Daniel Davison is an incredible drummer, and I got the opportunity to meet him this summer after an Underoath show. Super cool dude. Enjoy!

Man, I have to tell you, I absolutely love watching your drum covers. I accidentally stumbled upon this one a day or two ago. And I was just like, "Wow, this guys has great technique and a great drum setup." So I watched about 75% of your other drum covers. You have excellent taste in music, I must say. You inspire me to be a more solid drummer, honestly! (:
I was curious what kind of pedal, hi-hat stand, and sticks you use?

[@OrcinusLaryngologist]

You definitely hit note for note. I wish you nothing but the best. Drummer to another. ❤️

The little bridge at 2:41 or so with the tom on bass rolls are awesome mate. Your technique is sound and your tuning was perfect. Great job man! This is one of those hardcore songs that is SO hard to do. Not that the music is terribly difficult, but if you fuck it up, it's like disrespecting the band. Norma Jean is a legend in hardcore. You did this song justice.

This video got me into Norma Jean... I absolutely love your covers dude... they make my day. You have an awesome technique.
Ummm.... do you play tympani??? You keep muting the snare with your hand... Just asking cause I do it too from old habits... Good old orchestra days.

If you want to hear a more influential hardcore band then Norma Jean, look up Botch. You won't be disappointed.
