Waking the Demon - Bullet for my Valentine - Jason Bowld Drumcam

Taken from our epic show in Denver recently - No triggers, editing etc - real live drums! Love the simplicity of this song. Good old school metal with a personal embellishments I've added : )

[@kp-rv3ui]

Beautiful! That snare sound is what Lars thought he was getting on St. Anger

[@handa6656]

🤣🤣

[@UrsaFXTrading]

loooooooooool

[@phobit]

That snare is BRUTAL

[@alexisonfire2076]

The iconic sound of a steel snare

[@ryujinayato1623]

mmmm, the sound of ANGER

[@lucyferina]

That snare sounds like pure shit

[@drumsmichael]

@@ryujinayato1623 holy anger almost...... 😏

[@jameskirkbydrums]

the snare looks like a referrence sereis brass model, 14x6.5, and sounds like its tuned medium-high with an undampened batter head :) ( i could be wrong about the no dampening part)

[@Sonic.Echoes.Drummer]

I think you mean the sound of st anger. That snare sounds terrible!

[@AndyG3173]

Half time into the second verse was just beautiful

[@antonachim5224]

Agree😊

[@Blade2prevail]

A beatiful eargasm.

[@getsomebud]

Agreed, that was a sick modernization for this song

[@traviskilroy3648]

you are fuckin right that was good i did NOT expect that after listening to this song for like 15 years

[@MessianicFollowship86]

That snare ping is more steel than slipknot's beer kegs 👌🤘

[@user-oc6hi9dh3v]

Oh, just don't exaggerate

[@Digomonteiro]

True.

[@ryujinayato1623]

or Metallica's St. Anger

[@gofigure84]

It's brass but still metal snare. Cuts like a razor.

[@MrNormis]

That little half time breakdown he does around 1:20 is such a sick little change to add to the live performance

[@farwydi]

this is the song that motivated me to start playing drums

[@Drumscribe_LVR]

Hey mate, just in case you need a drum sheet music for the song - please check it out on my channel

[@TheGmoneyless420]

Rock band?

[@thedruidzmademe666]

one of the first songs I learned when i got my first kit as well

[@iprefermyeyeslow49]

This man is raw dogging that double bass with bare feet, my god what a legend

[@MattyLMurda]

That halftime tempo during the second verse tho 🤌

[@josephversleys]

Second verse slaps hard, really love that change to the song. Would love to hear it on a co-headline in the UK with Trivium 👀

[@edwardrummer]

That half time groove to start the second verse always gets me! Love it !! Always thought it was a brilliant addition 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@heinoq]

Love the fact that he is ALWAYS smiling while playing. He really loves his job and you can see that.

[@JoshCastleTCM]

Jesus that snare cuts through beautifully

[@jameskirkbydrums]

pearl reference series brass, 14x6.5, theyre AMAZING snares!!! :D

[@Al-pv8gb]

This man is having the time of his life doing what he loves

[@Steven-id9mc]

This was the hayday of BFMV. I hope they can put out an album like Poison or Scream, Aim, Fire again.

[@tanghau947]

That steel snare sound🔥😍😍

[@MsCloaca]

Good lord that snare is so perfect

[@IainFrame]

Ouch, I'm injured from listening to that snare. Brutal! 🔥☠️🤘

[@nicholi2789]

I love the breakdown change up during the second verse. Sick! Did not expect that

[@mrgamerwatch100]

1:28 is so freaking dope. I really want a studio version of that

[@johnuruski651]

I am old… 58 and was blown away when the likes of Neil P hit the stage in the mid 70s with things that had never been done on a drum kit and back then, 40 years ago it was impressive….. Fast forward 40 years to see this video and the accomplishment evolution of modern technology of drumming, it is an impressive accomplishment to say the least. Absolutely great performance 🎭

[@BamaRockstar85]

That set sounds AMAZING. Is it just me or this guy underrated? Ive always loved the drumming in BFMV

[@117dal]

One of my favorites to play along to, ever since it came out!

[@blackdragons95]

This dude is always so happy when he plays i love it!

[@THEMATZ52]

So glad your doing these! Keep em coming jason! 🤘

[@dominikaksiazek7177]

[@slowandsafegaming4126]

That's an awesome blend of technique and next level drumming cardio. Absolutely hammering the kit without sacrificing dyanmic range. That snare roll that builds up to the guitar solo was S+ teir 🤘

[@kaymdrums]

i’ve been a drummer just about as long as i’ve been listening to BFMV and you never fail to inspire + amaze me as a musician LMAO i’m so glad i got to see you guys live in Kansas City !!

[@morganevans5404]

Imagine turning up to university as a 19year old to your first lesson to be told, your actual tutor is not here and he is covering for BFMV. Now he’s their guy. Jason, your metal lessons blew me away, but Monday mornings were the best! Morgan Evans - BIMM Bristol 🤘

This is how I imagine a T-1000 would try to imitate a human playing drums. You’re an animal and spot on!

[@drummermk88]

While I do love this band, and Jason's drumming is always phenomenal, I still have never been able to wrap my head around drummers who play barefoot. Mad respect for anyone who can/does, but I've never been able to. 😅

[@nicholassiter368]

Ok this was great!! 🎉 You guys make this look too easy

[@JustJesseOfficial]

Is it weird that I find it sick how good of a mood Jason looks to be in when he's rockin out for the fans? Like, he lowkey the hype dude with just his attitude.
