Chris Adler Drum Cam - In Your Words

[@kgmulato5951]

Chris was the reason why I love Lamb of God and he became my hero next to the late great Joey Jordison

[@swiftyrocks08]

Chris Adler is the drummer who made me realize i wanted to be a drummer. I love his style. Definitely one of the best doing it along with Mario from Gojira.

[@thebeastofdoom]

Chris adler is the perfect example of a totally well rounded metal drummer. He is not only very fast, aggressive, and well rehearsed and technical, but also very creative and interesting. He is also extremely tasty and never over plays and tries to take over the song; his spurts of technical brilliance come when appropriate and boy when they come, he frikkin KILLS it!

[@MartinBellamyMBDrums]

0:42 has to be one of the most ridiculous fills ever, and i love it

[@emanuelvaldez822]

Only one =D

[@i8urbabi]

glorified simplicity, makes it awesomeness

[@gaspar-animal-ribeiro5414]

It's mind blowing. He's left handed playing a right handed kit, which I believe is the reason for his very unique and extremely complicated drum fills. Plus, he only started playing drums at like 20 or 21 years old and I don't think he ever had any lessons. Dude's a beast.

[@mwheeler1994]

What a beast! To think he'd be playing songs like this all night. Wow!

[@Pr0f.St0rM]

Chris is one of the best if not the best drummer on this earth... He is tight af! ;-)

[@MrYenko77]

chris adler is a beast the best drummer

[@WeirdSchizo]

Chris Adler...such a tight and creative drummer...sheer divinity.

[@RashaadEspinoza]

gosh I'd be honored just to be the guy that sets up his kit before shows let alone actually hear them play live

[@dawn3020]

Chris Adler is amazza za zing!!!! my favorite drummer ever,,

[@JV_LD]

I love it how he's just rocking out like he' just sitting in a chair.

[@klimis94]

holy shit!!! he plays perfect every note!! amazing drummer. just respect...

[@Hyperboi4evr]

I love this guy's very mechanical style. You can definitely tell it's Chris Adler when you hear it.

[@VincentCamachoMapps]

I love how he's one of those metal drummers that focus more on technique rather than speed. Chris Adler is one of my inspirations.

[@alessandrozerbone]

He makes those drums shake and rumble like nobody's buisness

[@Darthn0va86]

my favorite drummer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mnbvcxz123S]

I love adlers incorporation of blasts in this album, it fits in and it doesn't push it like so many other bands

[@xXRocketzXx]

WHAT A FREAKIN' BEAST!! MAN...

[@thepostfk]

Joining the congregation after seeing this

[@WayneWiblin]

Chris Adlers blasts are how I feel the technique should be used. He does not over do it and when he does put it in the song it serves the song rather than blasting away on 98% of every song. For me what makes him such a great drummer is he does not focus on speed. I have no problem playing at very fast speeds but to slow it down like Chris does is something I am working on and believe me it can be tricky. Laid to Rest intro is a good example of wtf lol

[@intoexilemetal]

holy fuckin shit! untouchable drumming right there. the one handed fills near the end are very impressive.

[@drummerjohn007]

@thepostfk no blast beats are one hand playing the snare and a nother playing whatever cymbal. That's just Chris's amazing style.

[@qwertymofucka]

You hit the nail on the head brother.

[@BangTango]

talk about locating those skins and cymbals in the dark, fucking awesome drummer in all start-musician band, all hail lamb of god.

[@cclmagic]

this dudes my hero, the new album is so much more technical and hes improved his hand work soooo much. no to mention how fucking brutal it is haha

[@dannywilliams9264]

Awesome, Chris!!🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@CkSandwich]

Saw them live @ Cleveland, OH w/ Gojira & Metallica... and Damn was it awesome!

[@TheMurty01]

love the head bob

[@OGTheDemon]

@zackattack94 its what makes a great metal song a great groove and the right points of speed and fills which is y chris is my biggest influence

[@adamkeiger]

i one day dream of being able to play this. D:

[@GrapesofWrathOFFICAL]

That´s live in cologne in feb. 2010 FUCKIN´ awesome concert

[@JUANLEVI7]

very coooooooollllllllllllllllllllllllllll video cam

[@MrNemo1983]

You make it look so easy.

[@3acdc3mtlca]

hes a machine

[@reddrum56]

man his kits sooo tight. fits like a glove

[@jakubrox19]

@Gatorbait66600 thanks man. im in love with his bass sound, so good.

[@SonataArctica6666]

@barton750 He's done quite a few drum clinics.

[@Booz666]

I fuckin like this video! Chris Adler is drumming so fuckin awesome!

[@OGTheDemon]

and not in that order there just all excellent drummers in the metal world and are at the top of there game

[@u9ur-adv]

fantastic !!

[@Droking187]

Amazing!!

[@SuperGilbs]

i think it's just straight 32nd notes played in a triplet fashion because that little splash accents the 3rd or 4th note see if that helps

[@hfdesosa90]

Chris Adler is god!!!

[@3triska3]

@drumrocka It´s quick single stroke triplet. Check out the video from his clinic. Thanks you btw :)

[@estebanskater123]

great drummer

[@bl00ber99]

omg so fucking amazing go chris !

[@ChrisCardenDrums]

@MaarlindDubstep i think his main right side china is an mb20, its a pretty awesome cymbal. but if your willing to pay zildjian prices id recommend the k custom hybrid china. i fucking love mine (19")

[@alessandrozerbone]

:46 HEADBOBBING CHRIS!!!!!!!

[@SpartanCarver]

@drummerjohn007 : What he's doing are considered blast beats too. Read an interview in Drum! magazine, he mentioned he was starting to add them to his bag o' drum tricks lol.

[@JustChillBruh225]

Chris Alder fuckin awesome drummer!! =)

[@YouNoob93]

@MichaelClaudio13 No, he uses Aquarian. Not sure what type tho, shouldn't be hard to find out

[@Vnilisftw]

he makes it look so easy..

[@westlandseaking]

Chris is amazing! this Drum cam is amazing! Check out Daniel Erlandsson Drum Cam!

[@devildrummer0109]

0:40 - 0:44....best fill ever, you guys can't argue tht haha

[@Jack4Hyland94]

His style of drumming the way he just grooves(bouncing lol) when he plays so fucking jizzy lol. amazing drummer probs one of my favourite out there atm everything is unique even if it sounds like an normal beat they'll be some sorta off in there :P CHRIS ADLER RULES

[@MapexRG]

@GrooveThumper I envy it he's practically ambidextrous

[@sohaib785]

1:40 HEADBOBBING CHRIS AGAIN!!!!

[@SetToFailure]

@piggybank777 The second hat is more closed than the other hat for a different sound and a different place, notice how he uses his right hand on the hats all the time though? Just because he signs things with his left doesnt mean anything. My cousin writes with his left and does everything else with his right. At 0:20 he doesnt even play the hats. o.o

[@patto7100]

mi baterista favorito junto con danny carey

[@jogtp99]

KZbin should add a "jalous" option to avoid jalous people to click on dislike

[@trongs01]

his kit seems closer together. his left bass pedal and the hihat used to be like miles apart.

[@onejordangerous]

Anybody else notice he starts bass patterns with his right foot and most hand patterns with his left hand? I swear, if there was some survey asking if he was right or left handed, he'd have to check the "both" box.

[@sohaib785]

@uberjosh2323 its easy..Here : Crash(R), 3 x Snare(R,L,R), Splash(L), Splash/Ride(R), 2 x Snare (L,R), Splash (L), 2 x Snare (R,L), Splash/Ride (R), Snare (L) ..and thats it! =) for the other "similar" fill, just replace the splashes with toms..in the studio version he does it different..he does the following : The first fill in that section is just that one but with toms instead and the second fill is the one i have explained just there followed by : 4 x snare and then toms =) Hope this helps:)

[@FrowzzY]

@DethCrusade I am not sure, but I think that all pro drummers play with click in the headphones ... Correct me if I am wrong

[@GrooveThumper]

It always gets me how he plays a righty kit when everything about how he plays and leads screams lefty. But thats how he rolls, starting with his left....I wonder if he'd be awkward on a lefty kit...

[@iPwnMETALLICA]

i love how the camera moves haha

[@warwickshovel]

indy mayhem july 31 i am taking my band, can i get a HELL YEA

[@Xcocobearr]

God Meinl cymbals sound so fuckin good

[@drumrocka]

@3triska3 nice cover of reclamation dude. I have trouble with that fill as well. I know it's something to do with swiss triplets, but I just can't get it to work. Is it flam: R Rl R L R L, or double: R Ll R L R L....or is it a quick single stroke triplet: R rlr L R L? I know it's possibly all 3 depending on personal preference but I just can't get it to stick

[@i8urbabi]

@kelby810 until you know your kit well it can be tuff. but when the strobes come on then it gets tense ;)

[@FrowzzY]

@DethCrusade What you hear is not what he is hearing. He's got inear monitoring ;) .

[@MKiller5]

@GrooveThumper He would.. Because he didn't know that left handed people played reverse, he only found out about 8 years after he started drumming^^ But yeah, his stuff is pretty confusing sometimes...

[@SpartanCarver]

@drummerjohn007 : "Make me some fucking noise, Download!" is what he says

[@JackMehoff845]

@MichaelClaudio13 aquarian : classic clear on toms hi energy on snare and superkick 2 on kicks

[@kelby810]

I bet that until you get really damn good at the drums, its hard to play in the dark. haha

[@OGTheDemon]

@zackattack94 adler is my biggest influence im a metal musician and to me what makes a greta metal song is the great combo of gorrve and speed in a song

[@StowicDrummer]

Seeing at mayhem FTW!!!!!!

[@secondfish]

@FrowzzY most drummers i've meet, does that. and im 100% sure that he does too:) theese guys know what they wanna hear of eatchother on stage :)

[@OGTheDemon]

@Jugganaut5826 look man moral of thsi is chris has superb skillz he gets payed to do it and alot of metal drummer extreme metal heavy all types look to him he is reinvinting the wheel and he proves that it it doesnt have to be 250bpms to be entertaining which most true metal heads hate cause it sounds like garbage....speed it good we all love speed but its not the most important in drumming not by a long shot its knowing what goes where and when to make a great song and chris does that

[@2014andon]

this is good i liked )

[@southern_rivers]

does anyone have a good estimate of how many songs they may play at rockstar mayhem? theyre the only band i wanna see and just curious how many songs they might play

[@arianafi]

@piggybank777 thats how i am i play faster notes on the snare with my right hand everything else withh my left or i just switch off but fast notes like that i do with my right

[@divinations00]

0:22 NUTZZ!!!

[@MasterKief69]

haha you can tell he's havin a good time

[@DevilDog5710]

@SirBaga Let's see you cover this song and play that fill perfectly. I've played this song on drums before just for the fuck of it, and I've been playing drums for YEARS. That shit is a lot more difficult than it looks.

[@aghamom]

im a big big fan of Adler but i have to say Mike Portnoy's got some nicer fills. Adler still rules!!!! \m/

[@2xW3011]

@xxxIZKYxxx No, his snare just sounds godly.

[@TheButtMatters]

dat snare
