Brooks Wackerman - Unholy Confessions (Drum Cam) 2023

[@sutoneru-sama9836]

He has an awesome feel in his playing. I love how he swings while keeping everything on point. That's real skill right there

[@jd0879]

Incredible drumming. I prefer Jimmy’s more thrash metal style for this song but I can appreciate it what Brooks added to it

[@miopiispanen7907]

Yea Brooks is amazing drummer but overall i like jimmy's drumming style More

[@ryanford5387]

Overall I really like his style, but do feel that the fills in the intro were over the top

[@FanaticDrummer]

Too busy for how simple the song really is. It actually makes the breaks more awkward because the drums are constantly stopping and starting.

[@miopiispanen7907]

@@FanaticDrummer completely agree with you

[@Davesworth]

You guys don't play drums so I get that you don't understand what's really going on and why it's so different , essentially Brooks is playing it half a beat slower then the original song so he's able to add all these little fills look at Mike portnoys version of it he plays it full speed and barley has any time for any fills what's so ever lol

[@MichaelWoljevach]

RIP REV! One of my all time favorite drummers. Sounding the Seventh Trumpet will be one of my favorite albums forever!

[@lefosg]

I didn't think it could happen but, first time i don't mind someone changing the Rev's style. Very satisfying.

[@sanzar4540]

really love brooks rendition of unholy confessions

[@InzidenzPanik]

Brooks is doing wonders by bringing a more mature and solid feel to Jimmy’s parts, which were just unhinged creativity and willingness to play with the melodies.

[@JohnHenry1331]

Great capture.

[@mikec7176]

Great drumming, Im sure his older brother Chad is very impressed with his playing!👍🥁👍

[@N3V2-Nevto]

The rev would definitely love this! He would be freaking out :D

[@brandogg]

Brooks plays it the way it would be played if the song was written today

[@newbeginning1510]

He makes it look so easy

[@Shadows_shades.a7x]

its just so easy so he make it harder

[@rizhaction]

rev and brook have their own unique style, and that's what makes avenged sevenfold complete 👌💯

[@alfiomancuso4]

Other drum cam?

[@DCthePunk]

Best drummer Bad Religion ever had

[@risapatriatama4682]

he's from bad religion?

[@windbarreto6811]

Yes@@risapatriatama4682

[@CaptainAlbatross]

Disagreed. Even though he was technically far more superior than his predecessors, he had the tendency to overdo it. Bobby Schayer was (in my opinion) a way better fit. Don't get me wrong, Brooks did a stellar job, i just thought it was a bit too much live.

[@ojsglove6402]

And Suicidal Tendencies. His work on their “Freedumb” album is so good

[@samharris8475]

The rev was a beast on drums

[@Djanuerja]

when your idol play your song, the rev smile in heaven

[@Davesworth]

I feel like if you set your youtube speed to 1.1 thats how the original sounded tempo wise

[@johnathankozloff212]

The biggest difference between these two takes isn't even the drums lmao it's the tempo and the vocals lol

[@FanaticDrummer]

Shadows vocals are absolute trash now lol I mean they were always horrible and whiny, with no dynamic range lol

[@johnathankozloff212]

@@FanaticDrummer I wouldn't go that far. The guy definitely has a ton of dynamic range, there's no disputing that. It has however changed alot. I think every fan has their own favorite "era" of avenged vocals, although I'll agree some of the later production choices especially have been questionable. Personally I think his cleans sound better right now than they have since the nightmare tours, but the screams have taken a backseat

[@Somawesomestuff]

@@FanaticDrummer uh have you seen any of their live videos as of recently? Shadows voice is pretty damn good, probably better than it was when they were doing The Stage tour

[@FanaticDrummer]

@@Somawesomestuff I havent seen one live video where it doesnt sound terrible lol His voice is just capped, sonically. No dynamic range and it clashes with the mix every time

[@zackpie945]

Powerpacked performance. Respect. 🙏

[@PramWR]

Banding2in gini gak ada abisnya. untung Brooks orangnya humble sama selow, kalo nggk mah drummer mana coba yg gak gerah kalau fansnya selalu banding2in sama drummer lama. Emang udah paling bener Brooks jd penggantinya, dan kalian harus bersyukur

[@martedydarmawan4449]

itu mah cuma fans fomo aja, gua fans A7x dr 2004 aja respect banget ama Brooks, lagian ketukan dia di album the Stage ama LIBAD ini berkarakter banget…belum lg kmrn pas main di indonesia variasi dia di Little piece of heaven oke banget

[@philmartin5449]

ty for including jimmy so we can all see how it was meant to be played

[@ozanasution8827]

what is the right crash cymbal?

[@pinbackstack]

i think its an 18" Istanbul Agop Brilliant Xist Crash

[@THEMATZ52]

Nice combo vid RIP Rev

[@reyseledio2323]

this drummer was the one who played some songs of korn on their album in 2007 and the song evolution

[@CorridorOfChameleons94]

In addition to Terry Bozzio as well.

[@InzidenzPanik]

Yep, and also played with Bad Religion for quite a while.

[@stevengonzalez2581]

Suena super epico

[@NandaMln]

Love Brooks live with The rev❤

[@bucket_7852]

Jesus Richard Fuck he makes it look so easy and effortless

[@DustyGlandon]

It is.

[@bucket_7852]

@@DustyGlandon well yeah I’m aware I’m a drummer myself but he looks so effortless every time he plays, I was just pointing out it’s part of his play style

[@ralelunar]

He comes from a family of drummers 😮

[@DeaganZ3488]

Brooks has the cleanest style

[@rollandsevenfold4240]

The rev ❤❤❤❤ forever 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@donaldsusi7062]

Is it just me... Or are the vocals like a 1/8 note behind in the first clip?

[@YawnerSt]

that's just the echo and delay from the venue, in the audience it's not like that mostly due to the camera being behind the speaker system which are very directional

[@redevolutionify]

stop comparing brooks with jimmy guys .. i know REV was the best one because its was REV own Song while Brooks just took a place to being replace as a drummer in a7x ! for me his the one can replace jimmy!

[@JaybirdLee]

I wouldn't say replace, cause rev is still a part of the band, brooks took up for him

[@zodinsangazodina6260]

The Rev❤️

[@AgungApermana]

Jimmy the bestt 🐙🥁

Brooks mempunyai gaya permainannya sendiri. Tentu nya tidak meninggalkan kesan jimmy

[@hugorezende199]

are u his roadie?

[@sergiojonathan]

Nao tem como,the rev é insuperável

[@kholidsyaefulloh]

I prefer the jimmy's version for this, i think it has more power

[@DF_UniatePapist]

Brooks and Jimmy are both amazing drummers, but it’s futile to compare them. They have such different styles. Jimmy was a Metal drummer, Brooks is a Punk drummer. They’re both amazing at what they do

[@jacobmanak4517]

I wish he could really smack the shit out the drums like the rev used to like with the snare

[@sammason189]

Avenged Sevenfold are my favourite band of a time and have been since 2003, I loved Jimmy and a lot of people prefer him because of the nostalgia factor and the fact he was a beast! 👌🏻 but if you’re really honest, Brooks is better

[@mattWiltt-zf8xn]

1.25x so good

[@brndn05]

Fk yeahh

[@rims_86]

too groovy, but its a style

[@mohdrosley9909]

Agreed

[@blinkFan-km5cw]

Nope

[@MrErikwade]

Jimmy all day .

[@willburhans3018]

ignorant

[@luccassantos491]

Respeito o talento do Brooks mas quando chegou o Rev olha disciplina músical é incomparável o cara no ao vivo fazer oque fazia no Studio

[@yudhaadityasukmanto]

why the heck brook add ghost notes to this song, he cant even hear it

[@rippindrummer666]

Ghost notes make certain grooves easier to keep in time. Tomas Jake does ghost notes in a ton of Meshuggah songs, you can’t hear them on record but you can see him doing it in live videos

[@yudhaadityasukmanto]

@@rippindrummer666 what is groove mean?

[@misfit2022]

Great drumming by Brooks but he’s hardly being challenged compared to the stuff he was playing with Bad Religion and before that with Suicidal Tendencies but you can hear the marked difference in quality.

[@rippindrummer666]

There’s no bad religion song that comes even close to the complexity of brooks drum parts in the song the stage lol. What are you talking about? Also I’m a huge bad religion fan

[@CarrieriDrummer]

Pukulan brook lebih variatif

[@boyrama8899]

more like for arin

[@DwiAdiSetia]

Gospel version 😂

[@RareCandyTCG]

Brooks is great but just not a fan of how it feels like he's jamming over a backing track rather than being faithful to the parts that have been written.

[@MichaelWoljevach]

yea they need a artist thats also a true fan of Sullivans.

[@JuanDavid-ig8fu]

@@MichaelWoljevachJimmy was Brooks fan, they even met back in the day, A7X need to leave nostalgia to the side, Brooks has been 8 years with the band now, almost the same as Jimmy, I know it hurts to accept it… Brooks is way cleaner when playing, that’s why the Rev looked up to him

show some respect bro , i think the only fill jimmy position only brooks

[@mattellis4270]

Absolutely annoying. The songs groove/feeling is destroyed by too much improv. Just play it properly...

Brooks has extraordinary skills, he is great, he has much more technique than Jimmy, but Brooks is too much in my opinion
