Descendents: A 5 Minute Drum Chronology - Kye Smith [4K]

[@LukeDatema]

Not sure how you aren't touring with a headlining band right now... Your sense of time and rhythm during changing tempos is unbelievable. Great work!

[@fredBlinderz]

He played for Frenzal Rhomb and has is own band Local Resident Failure :D

[@JohnMcClane23]

He played a song with NOFX too.

[@heyholetsgo]

JohnMcClane23 which one? Is it on here?

[@JohnMcClane23]

Remember the infamous moment of Mike kicking an asshole who got on stage? Kye was playing in that song. And I don't think that wasn't the first and only time.

[@scotty3034]

Bill Stevenson NEVER stopped his right hand for the 2 & 4. He powered though 16th notes better than anyone.

[@jonnyhundley]

It didn't know descendants before i first watched this. Now there one of my fav bands

[@Thforklift126]

They're the best!

[@romerjason]

Welcome to earth. 😁

[@StewartWhitneyinkobe]

Jonny Maddie is one of the best songs ever written.

[@jacobalexander970]

Listen to i got one jealous again again by NOFX and listen to every punk album he references. You are welcome

[@andyfariasceroni1238]

Same thing happened to me with The Beatles drum chronology, now i love them 💜

[@MattWilsonDrummer]

I"m a huge Bill Stevenson fan and also a huge fan of your videos! Your precision on the snare drum rolls and quick fills is insane!

[@verycoolandepicperson6060]

Now we need a ALL chronology

[@magretfr]

I waited for this Descendents drumology for so long, so what can I expect now as a new grail from you ? All ? at the drive-in? a band from a total another genre to surprise us? Time will tell, in the meantime , fantastic job! (as always )

[@seancrawford4786]

Refused

[@magretfr]

+Sean Crawford Refused will be great indeed

[@joshnelsonnj]

I wish I could put into words how amazing this video is. I've been obsessed with Stevenson's drumming since I was a kid, he's the best ever.

[@toddelroddrums]

Dude!!!!!! I don't understand how you switch between songs so quickly and memorize this whole catalog all in one take. MIND BLOWN!!! Cheers to you my friend

[@shingshangshawn01]

I rarely EVER stop to comment, but I had to tell you...! Bill Stevenson is not only a great drummer/songwriter/producer/ALL, but he is ALSO a HUGE influence on me as well. You sir just did what I like to do to warm up but instead of getting caught up playing along to Bill's impeccable timing for an entire album BEFORE recording my own material, you have done it in five minutes. Kudos.

[@daveholtien8117]

I love the Descendents and I appreciate the homage you play to my favorite band of all time. You are a talent. Thanks so much!

[@Arcadia6227]

That part where he first gets into Hypercaffium was insane.... Managing to jump through the different tempos like it was nothing

[@TheRantKing]

This just made me love the Descendents so much more

[@LUR1FAX]

Bill Stevenson is a dang beast on drums!

[@thebestofmyrecollection962]

this is so rad. I worship Bill Stevenson!!

[@zapottopaz2298]

Ur timing is spot free🤗

[@aflan9659]

Milo Goes To College is unbelievable! Always loved that album. Great job with this!!

[@michaelmcinerney8040]

You did an amazing job on this.Im a huge Descendents fan and drummer.Very impressive! Thank you.

[@demonicsweaters]

How in god's name did you remember all those subtle tempo changes? Bill Stevenson is one of my heroes as well, great job!

[@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624]

Descendents music are cool when drummer Bill Stevenson is the best. FACT : Did you know that Bill Stevenson is also the music producer of all the Descendents albums including 'Hang', a new 2014 album from Lagwagon! : )

[@dpatrick1a]

Dont forget Bill Stevenson was also in Black Flag

[@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624]

@@dpatrick1a Really? : )

[@susragejr477]

Bill’s also produced multiple records from NOFX and most of the rise against records

[@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624]

@@susragejr477 Super! 😀

[@IncessantTapping]

Duuuuuuuude! That was amazing, I've been hanging out for this chronology for ages! I'm glad you waited to include the new album.

[@jameshampton3102]

Black Flag or Misfits. PLEASE-

[@mutatedgeek8040]

YES!

[@cringekid45]

MISFITS ARE THE BEST! I like black flag also.

[@renebasso.v4301]

Misfits

[@LUR1FAX]

Bill Stevenson was in Black Flag from 1983-1985. So you can hear his drumming style on several Black Flag albums.

[@caesarm3362]

i gotta go with misfits man that’s the shit i smoke daily

[@lundahunda]

This video gave me a newfound appreciation for Bill Stevenson's drumming

[@zachballard970]

[@jcw91371]

Great job! I definitely took some Stevenson drumming to the woodshed back in the day as well.

[@evanparker]

The you doing the drum parts was neat, but you switching through all of them at the same time was even more neat.

[@NenaLavonne]

Thank you for making this!

[@carlosdrums97]

I really appreciate the work you put into your videos, quality content! 🔥🔥😎😎

[@casb777]

I got the chance to see them recently at soma in San Diego and my dads band played before them. It was rad.

[@rayzaditya]

[@nashmarty]

Can't... Stop... Watching!

[@fr0gyb0y]

this is amazing we are the proud the few descendents!

[@misfit2022]

Excellent. A lot of the songs are not too difficult but switching so quickly between sections of songs like that is impressive.

[@jimiemick]

I watch this way to often. So dam good

[@rockstar8416]

Dude this is amazing

[@Abel-Alvarez]

[@aiyanmherrpimentel3100]

Ramones

[@idk-hh1uw]

Dead Kennedy’s

[@abrahamvideoproyectos5508]

Awesome, greetings from Spain.

[@mykedee666]

Nicely done, mate!

[@ns2joel]

it reminded me of that ALL song "I Got None" lol nice work as usual.

[@cash_lovell]

Here with me is my favorite descendants song, i can’t tell you how underrated it is

[@finy-music]

Love it! great drumming!

[@ourlordandsaviorbrendanfra4428]

God damnit. You've done it again!

[@ndSpaz]

I like how you kinda set up your drumset like Bill, the snare tilted, the highat pretty high, playing with a straight back, a bit different from how you usually play.

[@butsenzeller]

Great workout man ! Insane that Bill just has to flip his wrists to create the same amount of power ;-)

[@cianmcclees5905]

Damn I would be dead after all the tempo changes... and how do you even remember what songs you're gonna play haha got my like

That is channeling your inner Bill Stevenson. I dare say he has become allular.

[@doritoz77]

You're fucking awesome man, and Bill Stevenson is a legend!

[@i_have_a_coat]

I think this is more like the best math rock song of ALL time...
