Seeing this just reaffirms the thought that the whole album is basically Syn and Brooks going a little bit mental and the rest of the band trying to keep up.
These are the cleanest covers I have ever heard. You can clearly hear ever stroke. The fact that he made it past the intro I'm convinced this man has calves of steel.
And this, folks, is why you can never have too many cymbals. :þ Seriously, I love all the little nuances and subtle personal touches. T'was great. Still, it seems like no one dares to tackle Exist. X) Only one youtube drummer has done that one.
Im horrible at being a critic to cover drummers, but dude, you nailed this cover. Your kit is bad ass, your hand and feet work are killer (just a very tiny comment, i did notice the hand to feet transition was a smidgen out of sync in a couple spots but otherwise it was spot on). I was also super impressed with what you did during the drum break by showing off your equipment. You have a great system of covers and the videos. Keep up the good work man!
Seriously, man. This is amazing. The intro to this song is so mind blowing to me. I don't play drums (I play bass...) but sometimes I look at drum cover videos just to see what the F is going on. And the bass drum/tom interaction here is crazy.
Потрясающе! Одна из любимых групп в прошлом, но даже сейчас я частенько их слушаю. Даже не отличить от оригинала! Rock on! 🤘 With love from Moscow, Russia 🇷🇺
Kids, this why you practice. Especially if you’re using a big kit as it requires more speed and precision to move around such a big kit if you use almost every piece of your kit like this guy does. Unfortunately, practicing doesn’t make your wallet as solid and it doesn’t keep you from putting holes in it while buying more toms, kicks, and cymbals. Unless you’re a touring artist.
@@blakeharris3900 If you play like Lars you definitely aren't gonna make it unless you happen to know a Cliff Burton or a James Hetfield to get you there
@@Hydra3724 dude that comment is so stupid if he’s not good enough for them then why’s he in the band oh that’s right bc he is, Metallica wouldn’t be the same without Lars being the drummer just saying
Only just come across this cover. Bloody, bloody good effort my man. Brooks ' drumming on this album is epic but you've smashed it out of the park 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Alexander, you are a professional drummer that any band (of high caliber, of course) would love to have with them. The fact that you’re on RUclips gets you known and is great. Very impressed with both, your precision and your speed. Countless hours of practice, I am sure, and definitively not instant gratification. I used to play drums and was very technical and fast but you bring that to a whole new level. Keep up the great work.
I was just sent this recommendation from my invitation to rockin mob!!! I cannot believe I have never heard about u before. I subbed immediately. Huge fan. I have several chronic illnesses, so I spend a lot of time in hospital and sick. So having found this Chanel with lots of videos for me to watch is so so awesome. Thank u for being you.
The snare is the second best snare I’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to. Of course the snare they used in St. Anger it leagues better than anything ever
this is just wow... i really love the way you played, and surprisingly the concept of your video, which took us a small tour around your kit when the guitar solo came, also the fading at the end. really great job overall man!
Watched a lot of covers of this album. A lot of people are ahead of the beat to an annoying degree, but this was spot on. Bravo and God bless you, sir.
The only Paiste cymbal I have on my set is a pst-7 ride, but it's my favorite cymbal on my set easily. I want to get more Paiste cymbals in the future because they sound so good!
I'm a zildjian guy 100% because I can use my cymbals for many genres, paistes have a chunky, glassy sound, which is great, but for those of us that have smaller kits and only one set of cymbals, paiste are expensive and specific sounding. I have a paiste alpha metal splash 10' and I love it. It fits well with everything. It sounds like an ocean wave hitting a wall in a cup.
No doubt, bad religion is cool but I’m so glad he’s in a7x now because he can showoff his insane skills more, really excited to hear the next album to see what he does on that, the drumming throughout the stage was just fantastic
Alexander, huge thank to you. First if all you play amazingly and I enjoy your covers. But what is cool about this video is that it was the first a7x song I knew because of this video. It was this video that first got me in to this amazing band I enjoy so much to listen to and learn and play their songs. So thank you for your playing and sharing, keep it up and rock on man!🤘
This is my wish i hope you cover all of them next time : 1. A7X - SAVE ME 2. A7X - BEAST AND THE HARLOT 3. A7X - BROMPTON COCKTAIL Btw that's nice cover for this song, good job ma broo🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice cover! Actually helped me learn a few parts! I don't know if you look in the comments for song requests or not, but Save Me by A7X would be an awesome video...
"Oh shit it's leg's day. Better play the Stage".
Omg
I get it though
Pffft, play bleed by Meshuggah on leg day.
Or one by metallica insert double bass kicker

That's exactly what the fuck is going on LMAO
YES
This couldn't be more accurate 😂
yup, these are te times when Zacky thanks god he's the rhythm guitarist lol
They should just use that template for every record, imo
These are the cleanest covers I have ever heard. You can clearly hear ever stroke. The fact that he made it past the intro I'm convinced this man has calves of steel.
Guitar Store Employee: How many cymbals do you need?
Alex: Yes
Guitar store?
You mean guitar center lol
How do you Aquire the money to buy this many cymbals bro?
This reply section is a whole face palm

4:05 that was godly
Pretty standard sextuplets.
@@iDrunkRS and missed that part since you heard the song drumming and he wasnt.
jcallesano That was his feet. The bass hits after he finished the sextuplets were his feet.
I love that kirby XD
Check out the 46&2 solo by tool
Thank you Brooks Wackerman, for creating the best song that ever existed!

John Adams nah you’re right.
How much do your neighbors hate you?
Nvm, who can hate this song?
lol
actually in the music studio are using sound absorbers. I don't know if he uses it in his house.
right that's so true lol xD xD xD
@@andikardian9014 you dont see them in the video? lol talking about sound absorbers and shit but you dont notice them in the video? loool
People who hate this song are people who dont know real music like Avenged Sevenfold.
you fucking killed it again ur easily one of the best drummers on youtube can u do run to the hills by iron maiden
Thank you very much Tokin 420! I'll keep that song in mind!
Fantastic drummer. Would love to see u do sepulturas attitude.
And please do Aces High!
the only reason Alex is better than Cobus is that he sticks to the original riffs instead of trying to show off and make his own "cooler" riffs
Brooks is a freak. Good job, dude. Love the Paiste 2002, started with those in 78, still have some.....
Once Alexander finishes,
"Now. How do I get out?"
He doesnt, thats his home
Through the window
And this, folks, is why you can never have too many cymbals. :þ
Seriously, I love all the little nuances and subtle personal touches. T'was great.

Thanks a lot Lyendith! I'll give that song a listen!
Exist is easier than this, just longer
Well, Exist is 15 minutes long. So I can see why not many people have covered it.
Charting that song would take days lol
This is the most accurate cover I've seen of this song! ROCK ON MY DUDE!!!!

Plenty of room on his left/right to get out
That acrilic snare is popping...Nice tone
Sick snare
Probably my favorite intro EVER. And you killed it. So awesome.
Great as always man!
Thanks a lot Ado 127!
Un grand merci pour cette qualité de jeu sans oublier le son. J'adore. Il y a du haut niveau.
Would be a real killer if you'd make a tutorial on that intro! no one has recorded the video yet... great cover!
Your kit is the best thing I've heard, accompanied by your drumming, it's a joy to hear. Keep it up!
Brooks was definitely being held back from Bad Religion. Glad to see hear this monster in his true form.
No doubt, bad religion is cool but I’m so glad he’s in a7x now because he can showoff his insane skills more, really excited to hear the next album to see what he does on that, the drumming throughout the stage was just fantastic
GREAT COVER DUDE!!!
I dig the gain you did on the snare at the initial! @1:18
Even tho i don't really like the music you play, i love how you play.... love it
I pride myself on accuracy. I hate it when some covers have unnecessary fills the player makes up. This cover... is awesome.
Please cover The spirit carries on - Dream theater. Can wait for that song sir
