[@olekacf4029]

Rumor has it that crash is still spinning to this day

+Ola Ke ACF It's still spinning right now and getting faster

[@Anonymous-yj3jd]

[@kuchi214]

[@naimeleven95]

Spinning..

[@xthe_nojx5820]

Hey, guys! I think it's... nope. Disregard last.

[@birko985]

Prob best sounding snare I've ever heard

[@MonkeysOnRiot]

I'm not even a drummer and this is one of my favorite videos on youtube.

[@dylanjardine2016]

I love Matt Greiner, and I rarely see a drum cover of a song from August Burns Red that's anything good, but I must say this is a FLAWLESS drum cover! Great job!

[@tylercobler7796]

I'm still convinced after 5 years that Luke is one of the best drummers the work has spit out!

[@kotor2fan1]

The man to this day is one of the best, no doubt. Insane talent, still killin it!

[@grxygxds]

how could anyone dislike this video wow unreal skill bro

[@One_of_Many750]

Look At How Nonchalant Luke Is In The Intro Spinning His Stick, Like It’s Nothing. Skilled, So Skilled!!!

[@timothylarkin4916]

He’s always had the best sounding drum covers in terms of all the levels being perfect, the drumming also

[@doomslayer8431]

Agreed

[@vahnn0]

That's some fuckin' showmanship, dude. At 3:10, I was like, "Cymbal stop? He didn't even hit the.... Oh, niiiiiiice!" Good shit, man, keep it going!

[@eviex8554]

Yeah! Matt Greiner himself does that quite a bit when he plays Composure!

[@JasonRyanWilson]

One of the most clean covers I've seen in my life. All your work Luke Holland. Ty man.

[@SoloSoyMatias]

one of my favorite drum covers

[@marcellovictoralves4520]

one of the best drum cover ive seen in my life! and one of the hardest songs to play at the drums. youre a DRUM GOD man

[@jasonmac6644]

FLAWLESS STILL REPPIN 2017!!!

[@One_of_Many750]

One of The Sickest Intros of All Time!!! “August Burns Red” Always Has Incredible Intros!!

[@sparrow000]

please 8 years challenge this drum cover Luke!

[@moisesiran9791]

I never tire of seeing this work of art. Incredible quality!

[@skullbane535696]

Holy shit I love that splash/bell fill at 1:04. SO GOOD. I had to pause and go back a few times to figure out wtf just happened.

[@Itskahuny]

It will forever be my favorite drum fill in any song

[@Dylan-io5um]

You're legit one of the best drummers I've seen. So versatile and insane rhythm man! Keep it up

[@johnbernard7807]

0:41 Favorite part.

[@McFool002]

The precision this dude has is amazing, but the flair he adds to the performance is insane.

[@Ron-hh9yr]

such a nice snare

[@jonkelleher6547]

This is honestly the best cover I've ever seen of ANY song. Props, bro. You just murdered it.

[@poetwarrior13]

i have a fever! and the only cure is more drumstick twirls!

[@luke7507]

Hell ya this drum cover like reignited my love for this song, took me back. Thank you.

[@el_raiz]

Awesome drumming,please do abr ghost

[@abduladebayo2596]

That would be so fvcken awesome!

[@delilahjordan4625]

That snare though x_x Hands down my favourite drummer and drum setup.

[@Dgbmiz52]

How do you play with the toms so flat. I'm self taught and have never watch anything on form at all and when I try to set them like that I always rim shot...

[@babycarl9519]

well you want to hit them as flat as possible to get max rebound n stuff. So if youre playing lars ulrich style and put them at a 50 degree angle , you probably suck ass.

[@babycarl9519]

***** It does. The stick should be almost parallel to the head . like Jojo Mayer said .

[@babycarl9519]

Well. I get your sound thing . but you still get the most rebound out of it.

[@babycarl9519]

He was great , but now he sucks.

[@babycarl9519]

Yeah , he did well with metallica , no doubt . But AS a drummer all in all , hes way too famous , considdering his Skills.

[@MrDrewbies]

Many youtube drummers use camera angles and extreme editing to make themselves look and sound good. You have pure natural talent. Props to you man.

[@Skviid]

You should try doing I Will Return by Black Dahlia Murder.

[@SuperUltra]

@TheOREOswagger Well, that's what a lot of people think, but if you use a very sensitive setting for the trigger, there's a very high chance that even a snare hit will trigger the bass kick, so people who use triggers don't just 'tap'. It's called double triggering, where any vibration will set it off, even if you don't want it to. Triggers are used for cleaner sounding double kicks because above a certain speed, if the bass sounds muddy, it's gonna sound like a really long fart.

[@patrick7794]

This is pretty fuckin' unbelievable

[@squirrelieboy95]

i tried telling my friends that he was probably the best drummer around right now. But they kept saying August Burns Red's drummer was better. Then I found this video, and they had to eat their own words! You rock

[@thebookwaswaybetter2827]

I don't understand man... how can you listen to this song and just know what exactly he is playing :{ I hope to get that good one day

[@Anonymous-yj3jd]

Civvix practice mate

[@jeffreydean5112]

A lot of practice and some people just have a natural ear for music.

[@greatalexadrian]

You know a drummer is good when he plays ABR's songs effortlessly.

[@Orvis128]

Not an easy song... Very complicated. Also, clearly this cover isn't meant for accuracy. So let the kid do his stick tricks. Just saying.. Good job!

[@95TurboSol]

Amazing cover, absolutely perfect!

[@musashio2]

ควงไม้กลองเมพ

[@KevinBurleigh]

your stick tricks never cease to amaze me, great cover!

[@xNecropolisx100]

Tighten up the kicks & it would be a solid cover. Nice tone on the snare though..

[@3101max]

are you seriously telling luke what to do?

[@xNecropolisx100]

Umm no? haha I am just saying his foot work is a little off tempo. Let's be reasonable here. I usually watch like Alex Rudinger covers, he has precision. Lukes' cover just left a lot to be desired, for me..

[@xNecropolisx100]

& I'm not like trying to discredit Luke though, his Born of Osiris cover is solid.

[@ATXmw1]

alex erwin yes rudinger sets the bar super high lol

[@kiliabgonzalez3789]

alex erwin I agree his tempo on the foot work isn't great, but this was close to 3 years ago lol. I'm sure he's improved a lot.

[@tomclem1]

dude, got goosebumps like 5 times, best ABR cover i have heard!

[@birko985]

dat snare doe

[@ericrotella858]

Who cares what these kids say, you've got tons of talents. They talk about headphones and a couple missed cymbals??? I'm in the entertainment industry and I say keep going bro!

[@Isetmykittensonfire]

NEEDS MORE CHINA!!!

[@definitelynottheriddler]

NEEDS MORE COWBELL!!!

[@vox5kill]

I seriously LOVE the foot work in this song. Great Job, man. You are so talented!

[@TheHedgehookTM]

who watch it 2k16 ?!

[@inconspicuouslynotthere]

2K17 !!!!!!!

[@reedgregorytv7317]

Back when everyone you knew was in a band or trying to form one, you spent all your time on Truth or SJC's site building the custom kit of your dreams you'd never order, and flipping through cover after cover learning new songs to play at home. This era will forever be GOATED.

[@victorgasiul7818]

Very good cover. But my arm is bigger than his leg:)

[@uuskate]

Victor Gasiul jajajaja

[@timothylarkin4916]

No it’s not

[@DrummerEvan1]

Kit sounds fantastic as does the playing.

[@music99freak]

one of the best covers i´ve ever seen.

[@drumline4jesus]

Hey. I love watching the progression of where youve come in the last couple years. I just spent a little bit watching newer videos and came back to this one and I gotta say congrats on your foot work especially. Its so much cleaner now. It was good in this video but its come a long way. Keep up the great work! I look forward to seeing more and sharing it with people that will make a difference.

[@levraijodion]

Flawless Luke, as always.

[@PowerSourceTheBand]

Amazing job dude. Very unique stick flips and tricks. Hope to see more

[@DeltaCharlieClay]

That moment when your mind is blown by awesome drumming by Luke Holland, yup right about now. KCCO

[@mlease1]

Probably the best cover I have seen for this song... great job man!!!

[@zubzero1]

At this point in time you had no clue on what was going to come up of you're future. But you had the right idea, believe it or not this was one of the songs that made that idea a reality.

[@matheuswylde]

There are a lot of good covers of this song on KZbin...but yours is the best BY FAR!!!

[@Bendelah]

Love the way your snare sounds man.

[@Vogurt]

not sure why this came up on my feed 13 years later but im fuckin here for it

[@damonn44]

Incredible 👏 loved the rawness of the prod dude, sounded great

[@rhx17]

This is unreal, makes this song looks easy!

[@DarkDrum.]

Amazing Job man! Thank you for sharing this, you can learn a lot of techniques watching this. God bless you!

[@gavinfranzone7056]

Hey Luke, awesome cover \m/ You are such an inspiration to me and part of the reason I started learning drums. Keep it up bruh!

[@remimonsgn9761]

THIS is top-notch drumming at its finest

[@knightwrestler152]

i love how clean the double pedal sounds

[@wtf123ily]

Ugh gosh. You are so talented and amazing.

[@TheSmileyFacedPizza]

dude this song is so hard... i give you some serious credit, your incredible at drums

[@HellraiserC197]

Respect for the hard work and dedication

[@TheBearRamage]

damn luke....when ever i want to learn how to play a song i just look at your covers because i have like the same set up as you and your just great, every time i play drums if i fuck up on a part i just think of what you did then redo it your awesome.

[@squidward4980]

Luke, use the force! With the force, the drumsticks shall never leave your hands

[@musicfan1585]

Brutal song and awesome cover!! My favorite ABR song. Love the stick spins throughout the song.

[@tannernolen15]

Mad crazy cymbal spin!!

[@SleighJessi]

Aside from being a fucking outstanding drummer, this guy is also really entertaining to watch with his stick tricks and spinning cymbals and such. Awesome.

[@HAHAdom]

I've never seen someone make this song look so easy :o

[@TFarberProductions]

Damn! I've never noticed how crazy the drums are for ABR! Beast!!!

[@dsze145]

Those rack toms are beautiful, holy amazing color.

[@GideonEXE]

I swear when he does stick flares they flow back into his hands, JEDI DRUMMER!!!

[@Mikee3212]

Damn bro, I've watched a lot of august burns red drum covers and this might be the best....

[@CactusGats]

@Zachplaysdead1 it's a custom snare. But it's a 14x6.5 brass (I believe it's brass) snare, from seven drumworks

[@littledrummerboy738]

so good... to cover one of Matt's songs and play with such ease is insane! Nice job dude!

[@xWombatman08]

I bet tons of people have said this before, but.. YOU ROCK. Way to go. I don't play drums, but I can tell that you're better than average.

[@darko3415]

I wonder how the drum set is still standing there cause you just KILELD IT! Very nice.

[@davidcissell5405]

absolute fire song and cover

[@kennethwilson2010]

RIGHTOUS!!!!!!! Madddd skills bro. and one of my fav. songs

[@InsomniakDrums]

for a single run, this is great man! A little rough, but that's probably just because of it being the first take. You've got some good chops, and it's enjoyable to watch you play!

[@ThePaulGenny]

Unreal skill man!! So solid even though your sticks aren't even in your hands half the time!!! MAD MAD PROPS DUDE!!!

[@MahinalaniClaire]

this cover has to be the cleanest sounding cover i have ever heard... eargasm.. for sure (;

[@lclakaiguy]

I don't think anyone but Matt Greiner would notice the missed crash in the beginning lol! Awesome job !

[@roboguitarrista1]

love your snare!!! it sounds so solid and awesome!!! nice drumming btw! keep it up!!!

[@emoelvis]

The kit sounds so sick omg

[@LethalRDX]

@LukeHollandDrums Blows my mind as well. I have used plenty of headphones and my beats are my favorite so far. Don't know why so many people hate on them.

[@BlackfangPeverell]

You are by far my favorite drummer Luke O.o

[@SanAndreasGaming]

When you do another speed fast drumbeat video??? This is awesome man!!!!!

[@mojolito]

Perfect doesn't even describe it.

[@LINE4RR]

As far as I'm concerned, perfect. Can't wait to see what you write for TWA's next album I'm stoked.

[@nova495]

So cool how that cymbal kept spinning throughout the playthrough

[@SuperUltra]

@rocker24bb42 Go to the ddrum website and look for the trigger collection. They're like clips that go on the drum head, right at the rim. They have to be hooked up to a 'brain' module where you can adjust all kinds of settings, from the sound that it triggers (hence the name) to the sensitivity of the trigger.

[@danielflitcroft2551]

man how far you have come.

[@DanT2406]

dude i love your covers.

[@jones013]

one of my favorite drummers! :)
