Nic Collins Learns Avenged Sevenfold As Fast As Possible

[@DrumeoOfficial]

Amazing work, Nic! You are a legend. Thanks for taking on this challenge! You can play along with this and many other Avenged Sevenfold songs inside Drumeo - Click on the link to get started: www.drumeo.com/trial.

[@84jdgregory]

Drumeo, y'all have been pushing your drums pretty hard lately. They're made by Alesis if I'm correct. I have two questions. 1: How would you rate your $500 kit to Rolands? Why would buying your set be better? 2: Can I remove pieces for a smaller kit? I'm not a drummer but I've played friends drum sets. 3 questions...sorry.

[@tylerwislow9771]

Brandon. Can you please do one of these but with a Groovefather cover? Or some other KZbin savants cover? I recommend: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/aovRp4SAf7idiZY 1. I think whatever’s individuals response would make great content. Especially if they thought they knew what song was being played. 2. I am not a drummer and I really enjoy drumming videos. Because of that I really do not know how to separate levels of skill, especially when everyone is clearly very good. I have watched Greyson play Nobody like 15 times and it is incredible and he is incredible. However, I have no idea how to judge if he received Esteparios cover here would it be similarly difficult to learn? Or, is that truly on another level? Or otherwise. Of course it would have to be the right guest. Your goal on your end I imagine is not to completely mess with people. Greyson immediately comes to mind because that guy is an absolute monster and also clearly really almost enjoys the pain of challenging himself. Can you put this together?

[@BrandonToews]

When Nic came to Drumeo, we had two hours left before he had to head to the airport, so I thought it would be fun to see if he could learn “Almost Easy” before his ride showed up 😆 Thanks for accepting the challenge!👊🏻

[@oldmanofthesea_]

[@unLUCKY95]

Man, I miss Jimmy so much, he would have been the most amazing guest on this show. Not only would he have played some amazing stuff, but he would have every one cracked up laughing. I love a lot of what A7X has done since he passed, especially the whole "The Stage" album, but I can't help but wonder what they would be like today if he was still around, because he really was the driving force behind a lot of their best songs back in the day.

[@bloodowl8927]

OMG! Same here! I always wonder which direction the band would've taken and how much different their material would have been because like you said he was such a driving force in the band through and through. He was soooooo talented. You just don't find many people like him and if so you better look hard and damn sure keep them. Tragic story but AMAZING legacy.

[@SmallAndDisfigured]

@cxff33 lmao what? The two most recent albums are a gigantic improvement musically on everything they released prior. The Stage actually begins to tackle larger musical movements and pieces and demonstrates some musical maturity. Life is but a Dream… is by far the bands best work, the idea of Avenged Sevenfold writing a song like G with influences from math rock and Zappa in the same track literally seems like an impossibility for the band that was writing songs like Seize the Day & other assorted low quality drivel.

[@lian1291]

Agreed!!

[@KrikZ32]

@@SmallAndDisfigured Idk, I loved the stage but libad just felt experimental for the sake of it. Arguably the most important part of making good complex music is making it palatable and I'm not gonna say they totally failed at that part with libad but they didn't nail it like they did with the stage in my opinion. I'll still take it over hail to the king any day but as a whole album I'd rather listen to any of their first 5 albums over libad.

[@SmallAndDisfigured]

​@@KrikZ32 Honestly we just see music in completely opposite ways with HttK being their worst album by far imo. It’s like ‘hard’ butt rock-like Nickelback but now they’re pissed because their step-dad took away their ps4 for a week. I also think if you look at it in the sense that music is art, their first several albums are not very artistically interesting. They don’t enter new territory or do anything that’s particularly interesting or unique. libad actually feels like a work of ‘art’ in that the band is trying newer ideas even if those ideas don’t line up with commercial sensibilities. It’s probably less ‘palatable’ although the idea that all art should attempt to be ‘palatable’ to sell more singles or t-shirts just feels like art being subsumed by capital.

[@p0esbek]

Most impressive. For someone that probably doesn't sit around practicing double kick bursts - especially at that tempo, he did a fine job for something on the fly. He got all the basics down and absolutely killed it.

[@dbmdrums1105]

Yes def❤

[@mrbungle3310]

Yup dude is much more naturally talented than he even think he is

[@soulessshadow5356]

@@mrbungle3310 I mean being the son of Phil Collins, and the drummer for his fathers solo project and for Genesis helps a ton. Between the types of songs that he had to learn with Genesis, or the more slowed down stuff with Phil's solo project, he's unintentionally conditioned himself to be mentally and physically capable of playing heavy fast songs like this. Plus lets be real, The Rev was absolutely no cupcake on drums, and he laid down some of the hardest drum parts in his unfortunately short cut career which makes what Nic did here even more impressive.

[@kickingxri]

He plays with way more higher capable musicians then cause it’s easy for him

[@Beldrakethen]

He does use double kicks, he’s in a prog metal band project atm 🤓.

[@enricodemeo]

The dude is only 22 going on 23 and has such musical maturity. Playing metal is really it's own thing at the drums and even though he clearly isn't a metal drummer, he came as close to perfect as possible in such a short amount of time and with all the pressure of a studio session. Plus - this drumkit sounds amazing. Great job, great video!

[@BahamutBreaker]

This track is HELLA tough to play accurately. Even attempting it requires serious bravery and mad chops on the drum kit. I think Nic absolutely crushed it, especially for someone who probably only had an hour or two to figure it all out and practice. His facial expressions on the china ride part were priceless.

[@Hyeri23]

"I mean, no one's The Rev.." oh man.. that hits hard.. FoREVer 🖤 Great work by Nic! 👏🏻

[@Mbcs1992]

I love this series because it takes some of the best drummers on the planet and humanizes them. It shows you that even at the highest levels, it still takes practice and dedication. Not to mention that even the greatest can be thrown off by a musical curveball.

[@pvdaele]

True. On the other hand, it also shows how efficient their process is. They learn very quickly, and also have a wide vocabulary at their disposal.

[@thejohnnydavidson]

The biggest take-away for me from this video is that it's ok to put something out there that's not "perfect", it's more about the process and our attitude towards learning something very difficult. Nic is a true professional and I really appreciated his approach to A7X! It wouldn't take him long to nail those double kick, ride blasts but obviously his time was limited on Drumeo. I love seeing Nic carry the torch for his father too! Rock on...

[@david34802]

100%. Makes me wonder about some of the other more well know drummers that have come on here but don’t do the challenge…maybe they can’t tolerate looking less than perfect.

[@MadMan123654]

Dude said he'd have to turn down the gig if he had to learn it the same day, puts out an exceptionally good take in only 2 hours. that's so nuts. It's not polished to perfection but he could absolutely play the gig in a pinch, definitely underselling himself.

[@elementsofphysicalreality]

Perfect and relative time though. The amount of takes these modern social media musicians are taking and the amount of rehearsal and lack of improvisation is killing music. All of your favorite modern musicians would crack in an impromptu situation. They hide behind the screen.

[@AlcLegacy]

@@elbeetlebeastoonly issue there is Jimmy didn’t only help with drums, he wrote entire songs / Melodys and whatnot for the band. When he died, they lost their sound becuase most of their sound WAS jimmy. But you’re right, brooks is probably the best replacement there could be for Jimmy.

[@hanibalanteportas]

They have lost not only the drummer but the most creative person in the band. I listen to them since 2008 and they are not the same band since The Rev's passing, they have lost their "signature sound" unfortunately...

I'm one of those non-drummers who absolutely love this channel! I do play guitar though, and the kind of music plays is very less shreddy/melodic, and more rhythmically focused. So I see Nic taking notes like "the hard part I can't play yet", I'm like "That's literally what I do!" but his "cool hi-hat part" is my "chuggy riff bit".
