Oceans Ate Alaska - "Vultures And Sharks" Drum Play Through

[@Pneuma199]

Currently, this guy is one of the sickest drummer hands down. And it remains true no matter which music scene one could think of. His skill is beyond insane

[@loudghostanthem2608]

100% agreed m8

[@NxMercyy]

+Mac Mourning Yeah Chris is amazing and i'm not disagreeing with you but you should look up Aaron Kitcher

[@Smellinglikefish214]

He's definitely up there with the likes of Matt Garstka :D

[@jamiewhitchurch-bennett2279]

+Mac Mourning yea im all about that pop punk but this guy is unreal. really enjoying these play throughs but not helping me get this assignment done.....

[@blakewarrens3925]

+Smellinglikefish214 A bit of a stretch, but he will be before long. His style is pretty reminiscent of early Travis Orbin

[@kingofantigua89]

It's official. This dude's double bass work resurrects the dead. Legendary

[@Auras718]

I had a drum lesson with him, he taught me all the secrets do mastering the double bass ;)

[@mitchdude9238]

+Heinistyle the secret is to sell your soul to satan

[@muhdfaiz1359]

+Chris hey chris can you show me at least the chris turner double pedal techniques ?

[@stivesyy]

>stares at absolutely nothing >doesn't miss a single beat Fuck

[@lickmybolgusNZ]

stivesyy it's obvious the reason for his extreme focus is to prevent his skeleton from combusting

[@SoulsNThings]

I like the way he brings a Jazz drumming sound to metal. Its very unique.

[@CharlieViking95]

I bet the drums always check the closet for this guy before going to bed. What a monster.

[@lazybatman1930]

Charlie's Drum Corner The concentration and the fact that he never misses a goddamn beat is terrifying.

[@boostedbuiltgarage]

HAHAHAHA!

[@SammyMakepeace]

bet it doesn't want to get surprise banged xD

[@PaulA-zp7hn]

😂

[@danielmooney2651]

Badass

[@zachbowden1993]

the concentration on his face is incredible

[@frosts6000]

This guy is probably one of the best drummers out there. I've never seen someone master the drums like this, that surely is a lot of talent

[@Tbrous4]

Frost S he’s only like 25 too so it’ll only get better for 30 more years

[@Mattsnotyours]

Love how low Chris seats his kit. He's like a king, surveying his kingdom!!

[@AlexCrockett]

This guy is crazy abstract..everything he's doing is beyond the realm of normal.

[@jeremy8189]

I've watched this numerous times and his kit height always weirded me out, but now I see it! It's for efficiency of motion! He never has to reach above his shoulders so everything is easily within reach. That probably greatly helps with his complexity and speed. Brilliant if ya ask me.

[@alexisvelazquez1386]

How in the hell do you remember all of those fills so well? the precision and skill is just phenomenal. great song by the way

[@savagedab6975]

He doesnt memorize them, he comes up with them during the song. He has the technique and skill to just play freely during any song. He never plays a song the same

[@chadink]

I don't think he's human, he's a machine made by an underground overlord sent to make the rest of us humans look ridiculous. This guy is unbelievable, I've seen alot of great drummers, but Chris is the best I've ever seen. Bravo bruv 👊

[@geetarplayer101]

this band is incredibly talented at all of their instruments amazing...

[@sinborn41214]

I've been in awe of this guy recently. I do wonder how much of his parts are left to improv, so much of his playing just sounds like syncopated goofing off that I can't tell.

[@LegitAdventurerTTV]

None of it. He actually discussed this in an interview that a lot of comments say he just kinds smashes his drums and hopes for the best but he said that everything he writes, he writes based on sounds. He doesn't try to write off time or odd syncopated patters. He just plays what he feels and plays it over and over until he feels its in the pocket. I'm sure his songs start rather bare and each play through he adds another part or 2 until its done haha. "Its not just random. Alright?" Loool

[@tysmith8209]

Definitely not. Chris has unbelievable technical skill. He has a pretty big background in Jazz drumming so all the applications are there. Chris just wanted to come out with a fresh new twist on metal drumming and he has certainly delivered. There is no random skin mashing about it. Chris's skill and experience level are far beyond your typical good drummer.

[@TobiParallels]

He didn´t even blink once.

[@saintpyo]

TobiParallels 3:05

[@SolideoKevin]

TobiParallels 1:23

[@h3r3si43]

+TobiParallels Never heard about cyborgs ? :v

[@autosave5453]

Robots don't need to blink.

[@Dr.Rosenbaum]

He blinks. Just at the exact same time as you.

[@Dismal626]

He stares at that ride like it just said something about his mama.

[@iqbalmabbit]

Dismal626 sir you really made my day HAHA

[@YOURSHORT2]

+Dismal626 i can't watch this video without laughing now because of you

[@faronoid]

3.07 lol

[@loudghostanthem2608]

I can't even everytime I hear oceans ate alaska now I only imagine Chris staring down his symbol

[@stevesmart7601]

+LoudGhostAnthem Cymbal..

[@lwantmybearsuit]

This is insane. I'm in awe of his talent.

[@MysteryArchives]

Nothing short of prodigy levels of skill.

[@bobbylight3277]

yo i been watching this shit 5 years and just noticed the quick cymbal grab at 3:10 - 3:11 , insane

[@woe-is-mia9156]

I love how this is the only video that will calm my nephew down. Will always be his favorite 👌👌

[@brandonbaker85]

Plays like hes untying a knot with his ear. Youre litteraly top 5 drummers in the world dude. Ty for your work

[@Andy_pandy86]

This guy is just mind blowing. I would love to find out how many hours a day he practices. Not only super technical but super precise. Hats off to you pal. Mind blowing stuff 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@flukevocalcovers]

Such a unique and amazing drummer.

[@TheFrostySaucer]

i wanna see what his brain activity is like when he drums

[@VenNoel]

SAMWISE GAMGEE cocaine is one hell of a drug

[@TheFrostySaucer]

Hahaha

[@andrewkusske]

I was thinking the same shit. This guy has left the matrix.

[@kevinromero5193]

Still come back to watch this every so often even in 2024. Sick!

[@BWEIKER22]

anyone that might have doubts on this guys live performances, from a first hand experience this dude is as good live as he is in his drum covers a monster

[@leekinttern1705]

he's a man of focus and sheer fucking will

[@kadenlawson2978]

anybody else think this band would be killer if they were just instrumental?

[@Roush7n6]

+Kaden Lawson Would really like a all instrumental album

[@132doubled]

+Kaden Lawson they should have deluxe edition like NL did with singularity... James' vocals are to good for them to be just an instrumental band though

[@No1WillMakeItOutAlive]

I know this comment is old, but now they have an instrumental version of their album put

[@No1WillMakeItOutAlive]

*out

[@TNCtheband]

they have instrumental versions of their albums

[@Gac3la]

2:29 that flam rimshot !

[@MartinRiosArellano]

Although I'm not hooked with this kind of music/bands, one of my best friends is a drummer on a bad ass jazz band... I acknowledge this guy is awesome. keep reaching the rainbow 👍

[@hugocapelobl]

i love this song because of those drums! amazing job man !

[@therestingmitchface6241]

This dude is sick! Love his BTF shirt too

[@VenNoel]

I'm pretty sure the bassist is the only human in this band.

[@MegaSafa123]

Ven Noel even so some of him parts are hard as fuck! Mike doesn't play around either

[@mghtzy8876]

:Dd 4th stringers

[@Jimdidit]

Super creative, outstanding job Chris!

[@DeadBoyVonn]

I Don’t Know What’s More Impressing. His Drum Skills Or The Fact That DUDE NEVER BLINKED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH. Nevertheless, Still One Of My Drumming Idols

[@timwhitingii]

YES!! Keep these coming, I want to learn some of these songs before the next album!

[@louisgiannamore]

even though he is super tense and plays with very unusual technique, his playing is spot one and super tight. all i can say is great job.

[@HollowNotEmpty]

YESSSS IM SO HAPPY!!!

[@Superluki1996]

best hardcore drummer, like matt greiner of abr

[@user-id2dx4qd6j]

lukas luki yeah, but they are two different genres. I’d say Chris is maybe a little better than Matt. I mean Chris is playing a way different style compared compared to abr. Both killer drummer and bands.

[@MyValentine93]

I find it scary how he barely moves his shoulders

[@bgood2292]

Good drummers only use their forearms and wrists to play, any other movements are excessive and usually take away speed and precision.

[@MyValentine93]

I play drums so I know its all in the wrists but I just thought it looked weird, maybe that's how I look when I play :/

[@nathandrums0]

+Ben Levitt I heard he has some kind of back issue so that's why he's so stiff, also with this kind of music it looks hard not to be stiff haha

[@jahcehh4720]

Bgood2422WTTL chill there smattering pants

[@dinospumoni663]

Bgood2422WTTL Drummers also use their fingers and full arms on occasion. Depends on the context and the volume required.

[@MasonAlexanderMusic]

everyone says "this guy needs to calm down" or "ease up." you have to realize this is a VERY difficult song to master as he's done. one wrong move and the rhythm of the whole song is fucked. the technical skill that everyone in OAA has is mesmerizing.

[@gustavhellberg2938]

The style of his drummin is just so sick

[@DoctorProfen]

A fantastic drummer. WOW

[@goldentopaz]

ah man that was awesome looking forward to hearing it on the track

[@rafacosanomelchor2930]

I love this kind of videos

[@impish1579]

Stares at the ride cymbal the whole song. Doesnt hit it once. Haha love you Chris!

[@JacksonTheEpic]

this is absolutely insane

[@ryanblue5627]

Epic Insanity! Dryden Foss is killin' it!!! 🤘🤘🔥🔥💥💥

[@fatpikachu3442]

O_0!!! Sooooooo many skill! Thanks for these 4 minutes man! Keep up the excellent work!

[@anacaeiro1049]

this is amazing! I love OAA you must be so talented!

[@gregmoorcroft8506]

chris your a beast!!!

[@NarcoCrew]

Look at the like/dislike ratio, that how you know he’s fucking amazing! I’m going to see OAA this month and I’m stoked!! Chris reminds me of Luke Holland. The skill is insane..

[@neropeak6548]

I saw these guys live, it was so good

[@TimenSpaceGaming]

THIS ALBUM NEEEEDDS A VINYL PRESS

[@John-wb2kk]

I can already smell the earthy cologne and overly sweet cold coffee with crushed ice cubes and Oreo sprankled whipped cream from here

[@TimenSpaceGaming]

+John LeDoux Cologne? What am I 40? Hate coffee, hate sweet coffee, hate cold coffee, you got something funky up your nose mate. I'll have my Oreos with a cup of milk, and if I don't have those things I'll have a fucking PB&J. Seems like you've dabbed in that kind of lifestyle since you can smell it to a T.

[@TimenSpaceGaming]

John LeDoux We get it, that kind of joke is a thing. We've heard it. People who are still stating it are just trying to look like smart asses. Is my perspective.

[@John-wb2kk]

That's the negative perspective of it, and that wasn't what I was aiming for. I was just trying to make a joke in attempt to humor you, but failed because of your emotional stubberness. I guess the lesson I learned today is not to try and humor someone with "gaming" in their title.

[@TimenSpaceGaming]

John LeDoux Cuz of course that also has a list of stereotypical jokes you instantly assume? You got a problem with seeing someone and instantly label aspects of their life. First vinyl and now gaming? You should be less critical about how others live their day according to their interests. Check your privilege idiot.

[@davud321]

Guitar play-through please??

[@JackieKnife]

Awesome Play through!!!

[@TheRealMattFromWiiSports]

I literally think he might be the best drummer of all time. Factoring speed, rhythm (or so much progressive "lack thereof" to actually create a completely different rhythm" and precision

[@MrPinchOloaf]

how would you even remember all of this

[@henrydemdem]

Even you can remember all of this if you're the composer of this song..

[@homemademusic7]

God gave this man an incredible gift...unparalleled gift. Hope he knows that🙏🤘. God bless you Chris...and may you have a bright and positive future. Shits getting ugly out there...

[@strangehappenings8961]

You are a freaking legend!!!!

[@down7unedpc740]

THis confirms it, yet another progressive metal player is a computer. Marc Okubo, and chris turner are humanoid robots.

[@loganpena4962]

After this video he needed eye drops dude held his eyes open for so long he couldn’t blink🤣

[@blackusniggus6249]

Imagine someone starring at you through your bedroom window like that

[@Steffex176]

Guitar Hero Live brought me here, thank you activision ! :) Nice song

[@JakeShields09]

Woah, I found this by total accident...... very glad I did.

[@marckielmanalon4581]

He's so focused because if he miss a single note, the thousand combos will turn back to one.

[@robbybrush204]

Best Drummer List : Chris Turner Luke Holland Brandon Burkhalter Special Power & Ability : Chris : Never Blink while playing Luke : Never gets old Brandon : Can play when his eyes covered by his hair

[@user-id2dx4qd6j]

Robby Brush I agree, with all except Luke Holland. Luke is good I honestly have no idea who I would replace with Luke, but there’s people better than him I think. Luke is great tho. Also cool to see love for Brandon, I don’t see a lot and he definitely deserves some

[@Jesamundo666]

Maybe replace luke with travis orbin, but keep luke in a close 4th to these guys I'd say.

[@ManaPowerGames]

DANG! Ok if you put me in front of that kit I could come up with some groovy stuff but nothing near this kinda stuff. He is an absolute mad lad!

[@mcsaggypants]

That focus haha great show in vancouver dude

[@RevolutionInsignia]

This guy isn't in the the zone, *He is the goddamn zone*

[@KirkWilson86]

absolute skills!

[@saintpyo]

pure art

[@Kholodniy]

0:34 oh my god, there are fucking 3 ghost notes in 1 second, holy shit this is absolutely insane wtf

[@DJOutloose]

God dayum this guy's a beast

[@3rdfriend]

A friend sent me here with the words: "If I wouldn't see it, I would think its programmed." - Well I can agree. Not disappionted :)

[@GoshDarnBarnOwls]

This playthrough was delicious.

[@JeremyDok77]

Chris is always in #BeastMode!!!

[@tyevans95]

SO FUCKING SICK BRO!!! 5 STARS

[@fosterzylel1307]

FINALLY IVE BEEN WAINTING FOR MONTHS!

[@DivinityOfficialPage]

such a sick ass drummer! but I just can't stop laughing at his face xD

[@romonge]

Monster!

[@Aurora_17]

I can't play drums with socks on.. At all!! This guy nails it

[@emmanuelramos49]

Exelente play trougth

[@elcamel1216]

Definitely appreciate the variety of symbols

[@Fukengruven23]

I appreciate ? Myself

[@theroncude133]

Take a drink everytime Chris hits the bell

[@Harpy-24]

You are brilliant... FULL STOP

[@Dagashi228]

HOLY FUCK! Chris is a fucking god on the drums!!

[@killakuhwin1]

just wow!

[@jaycoma436]

What kind of shoes is he wearing? Sounds epic by the way. Fantastic!

[@theskateboardt619]

What's that cymbal called to the left of his ride cymbal is that a mini stack or 8in. China?

[@julianrickees8351]

I don't even like oceans ate Alaska but man this guy is amazing

[@jubankta1627]

For someone who looks so uncomfortable while he plays,This dude is insanely good!!!

[@alexdondero9275]

Just set up my cymbals at the height that he has them. It's a lot lower than most people, but it's actually super ergonomic, I'd recommend people try it!

[@strangehappenings8961]

I have a question for this drummer. If you ever see this, I am wondering if you still get the chills when playing certain songs or certain parts. I am constantly chasing that feeling during my sessions, I am just curious.

[@DrummanTaylor]

These videos have the best top comments

[@apitjoe1391]

I've just seen scary movie ohh shit son. 1st time watching Chris.

[@Bartholodaea]

Do you guys still do drum playthroughs?

[@oobyjosh]

2:31 did he just check his watch?

[@thommygun7449]

sprachlos 😱

[@WAstateofmind]

2:17..*DING
