Shannon is one of the most underrated drummers, without a doubt. I was a fan of his back to his Wratchild America days. He is such an awesome guy, and drummer.
If you grew up anywhere near DC or Baltimore and were a rock, metal or punk drummer, this was Top Guy that you went out to watch, study, and get inspired by. there were a few but everyone knew shannon was the " the man " to see. So glad he was eventually landed the God Smack gig, a perfect drummer for that band.
This is a flashback to watch - killer set up - keeps everything interesting challenging and fresh - always been inspired by Larkin - honored to know him since the wrathchikd 🇺🇸 days - always a ninja behind the kit w flair finesse and vibe
shannon is exciting to watch. Love his style & genre of music. He is a really good fit for godsmack. Seen em a couple times, a friggin kick ass rock show!!! one of my favorite drummers.
Saw Wrathchild America 1991 @ Rock n' Roll Heaven in TO fuck what a band...ahead of their time still on my 'playlist'. Shannon - f'n HUGE inspiration. few yearz later saw Souls At Zero @ Edgewater in TO. Hardly anyone there. wound up hanging out partying w/them after til they kicked us out. Great bunch of blokes, Much respect.
Shannon is so talented and unique. Seen him live so many times and it’s hard not to just watch him because he is so entertaining. He is animal from the muppets!!!
You are inspirational and so amazing, I try to improve my skills by coming back and watching your techniques.you’re the Man, Shannon, thanks for sharing.
My dad used to be in a band that used to hangout and play with wrathchild when they were less famous haha its cool how you find out your family knows someone like that
I was child when first hear this drum and i got mad. I listen to the beat in my room with full sound. I literally cried to mimic the song. One of my greatest drum beat. Great job.
So inspirational. Im a drummer and its a great time but Omg I have alot to learn, but Im doing alright with it and Shannon youre one of my favorite drummers and yes, youre frkng nuts man!! Youre awesome to listen to And watch. Thanks for the vid, it meant alot.
Hey man I've always loved godsmack from the beginning. ..I'm from boston too so it makes me love em even more haha but godsmack got MUCH better after shannen joined up and started pounding out the hardest hitting drums in the genre. Shannens style is unrivaled from what I've heard, its not hard to play, not over complex and too busy but there's just sumthin about his drumming I can't spot from a mile away haha
Just joined a band, and they want to cover this song. Thank fucking god for this video lmao. This song is very doable for me, just tricky to work out the details as the drumming is surprisingly technical for such a simple and straightforward song.
For sure. I saw Godsmack open for Metallica on the St. Anger tour (I think it was Godsmack's Faceless tour) and Larkin blew it out of the water. He was insanely precise, all while spinning his sticks and being quite the showman. Honestly...the put on a more entertaining show than Metallica
man i hope to see them play next month when i go to vegas. any idea how much a set like his would cost? i'm 14 and i really want a set of my own, and i love his set.
Shannon used to live near me in glen burnie maryland. This was back in his wrath child days. Great drummer. Not a fan of God smack but shannon is a great player.

You talk about him like he’s dead

You’re awesome Shannon
You go Shanon! From Clark Reidels friend Tony 🤪
He's genious!

Thanks for sharing. Great to get the lesson from the artist rather than a bunch of covers. You and I don't have the same idea of super slow :)
When he played for Wrathchild America I was blown away as a kid.
Pure talent
You are inspirational and so amazing, I try to improve my skills by coming back and watching your techniques.you’re the Man, Shannon, thanks for sharing.

That was cool he took the time to make this video and a got a chance to get to know him a as a person.
some people are born to be drummers
I was child when first hear this drum and i got mad. I listen to the beat in my room with full sound. I literally cried to mimic the song. One of my greatest drum beat. Great job.
What a sic ass beat man..... Shit, that whole album was.... I remember buying that cd and never taking it out of my trucks stereo, 4 a long time...
So inspirational. Im a drummer and its a great time but Omg I have alot to learn, but Im doing alright with it and Shannon youre one of my favorite drummers and yes, youre frkng nuts man!! Youre awesome to listen to And watch. Thanks for the vid, it meant alot.
Excelent !
my old buddy from back in the day,i remember hanging out with @ HAMMERJACKS after the european tour!! wrathchild days that is..............
wenisimo!!
Propano Prime Si
weird to me how a band composes a song together.......when i compose a song its all in my head.
I used to have a band, we did the songs together, it's a little chaotic bot a lot of great ideas come up
I love you shannon! Rock on! If only i had a drum set i'd learn this song.
Best of the beasts))

Wow very nice and useful

Fun watch you while I'm sitting here with a fractured ankle. Been stuck in bed since before Christmas.
For sure. I saw Godsmack open for Metallica on the St. Anger tour (I think it was Godsmack's Faceless tour) and Larkin blew it out of the water. He was insanely precise, all while spinning his sticks and being quite the showman. Honestly...the put on a more entertaining show than Metallica
Double barf....
I loved him in wrathchild america also. He played some crazy drum parts for them.
Best 🥁
genius!!!
Exactly, because no best drummer (or musician for that matter) exists. Everyone is better than everybody else.
I like Tool, and yes, Danny Carey is good, but this guy is amazing to watch. Shannon has no equal.
His equals are Morgan rose and Ray luzier.
@@maness2112gnegnegne
i remember non from the early days in wrathchild He was like 15
Chris Hellams same, man. I’ve been watching him kill the drums for about 35 years. He was so badass even in his teens.
"Im blasting my quads, cycling is my passion"
Anyone else hear the guitar in there head every time he played?
ANYBODY Sully deems good enough to play behind him HAS to be killer!
the other Gonzo (J Bonham) played to the guitar rather than the bass, and we all know how well that worked out.
Bonzo!
hard song to play
man i hope to see them play next month when i go to vegas. any idea how much a set like his would cost? i'm 14 and i really want a set of my own, and i love his set.
That China sounds perfect
I wish my drums sounded like that.
Cool fill? Waiting on it.
Shannon is killer in Souls at Zero ............ check it out people !!!! 🤘🤘
What snare is he using?
i was in hard core band called Carnage He Was in a band Called Kiddie Porn were both on Fun House record s
Please tell me how I can get tuning this euphoric snare sound I'm waiting
It’s a special type of snare I’m pretty sure.
He wanted to start rocking out Sooo bad!!! Lol
Shannon used to live near me in glen burnie maryland. This was back in his wrath child days. Great drummer. Not a fan of God smack but shannon is a great player.
spinal tap would say ....great look great drumma
Nobody kicks a bass like shannon.Ive known drummers that use wooden beaters and they can't kick like shannon.AWSOME DRUMMER.
Showmanship! To the highest degree!. Shannon fuckin Larkin! One of my drum idols. !..!,
Drumming definitely fits the music he plays
can someone provide the correct drum tags for this song
egyedi.... ügyes.
He's so bad ass can't touch him
he's an odd looking little man and very talented
wow when i played this song i made it was to hard on myself..
