Play "In The End" On The Drums | 5 Levels

[@klinsmann6706]

People covering this song struggle with those consecutive kicks so they use floor toms. When I tried covering this song it was difficult but I could make it... Now I can do it with my single chain pedal and also my DynaSync... It was a learning experience because I tried so hard....but in the end, it doesn't even matter.

[@Pistacho123Lol]

I would say that the thing is... Rob doesnt play the bass drum that way, at least live. If you hear it during live shows, he will play it by doing two strokes only. Not in that repetitive way like this video is showing. And he also plays the snare by doing some ghost notes with his left hand and the right hand is for hihat and accents on the snare Its up to the drummer anyways 🤷‍♂

[@klinsmann6706]

​@@Pistacho123Lolin my case, I always try to play the songs as I hear them. More if a tricky part is present because there's where I can learn something new or find a weaker aspect in my playing. Anyways, I always warm up my foot with "John The fisherman". You can get like 8 levels there. Really cool pattern.

Dude, I can appreciate the honesty about multiple takes. You're a badass for telling it like it is.

[@AugmentedSmurf]

Honestly, Rob Bourden is incredibly underrated and super talented. I've seen a lot of Linkin Park live performances, and I don't think I've ever really seen him falter. Dude is a damn machines. And the way he took the midi drum tracks that Mike gave him and translated them to a real drum kit is amazing.

[@allyance8846]

[@neaituppi7306]

I know acoustic drums have some advantages over electric. But the electric drums are so good these days, and can get multiple sounds, like guitar plugins, you can play different and loud sounds but other people barely hear them in other rooms. You can play them all night long without bothering anyone.

[@Christopher-md7tf]

Great for practicing, but live performances with e-kits are incredibly lame

[@rockasstley7917]

I live in a place where there are a lot of houses together, and I own a really loud acoustic drum kit. Man the time limitations suck. I can't play early in the morning, I can't play at night, I can't play while my neighbours are taking a nap. It's awful

[@alaskaaa684]

lol not really. I live in a tiny apartment and you can DEFINITELY bother people if you play during the night.

[@dreamerrt216]

There are pros and cons to an e-kit and an acoustic kit. Thankfully I'm in a place in my life where I can have both, so I have the best of both worlds.

[@TheCocoaDaddy]

Fantastic! I love these "5 levels" videos! Seeing this makes me think even *I* could start playing drums again! :) Thanks for posting!

[@salty_snowboarder]

If you used to enjoy it and you miss it, by all means start playing again! Like he mentioned, e-kits have gotten relatively cheap and are much quieter than the real thing, so it's be less annoying to anyone else around if you're using headphones.

[@ejicon3099]

What a classic song and a timeless sound from Linkin Park. Legends.

[@jayjenkins4721]

I bought an Alesis Surge Mesh SE kit a few months ago with a Simmons DA50B 50watt drum amp/speaker and these 5 steppers are fun to watch. Been years since I played to where I knew what I was doing, so getting back into it again.

[@chrisggoodwin777]

I've listened to this song countless times, and had no idea that kick pattern happened... I'm going to have to listen for it now

[@_dgdrums_]

Playing that groove with single pedal is definetly way more fun that playing it with a double pedal 🔥

[@redcpt3791]

I was looking to buy an Electronic kit so I can play at home more, but having played only on acoustic kits for 16 years got me really hesitant. Hearing this kit might've finally pushed me over the edge.

[@eyesburning]

Rob actually plays only 1 and 1a (and the 3+) on the bass drum when playing this live - i.e., no 5 in a row, not even a double (at least during the verse). Both the recording and during the live performance Rob plays most of the e's and a's as snare ghost notes (I have the drums-only stem from the album recording uploaded on my channel if you are curious). I am not entirely certain, but I believe Rob does not even play the 5 consecutive notes on the album recording either - it's likely a sample added on top of the actual drum recording (LP is known for doing a lot of drum sampling on top of the recording, and Rob is known to not use a double-pedal).

[@Mikeontube]

nice catch!

[@Pistacho123Lol]

This is exactly what i came to say. For sure this is on live shows. Also he plays the snare with his right hand to make accents on it aside from the hi hat

[@eyesburning]

@@Pistacho123Lol You're exactly right. During the verses he uses right hand snare accents (not during chorus though).

[@Pistacho123Lol]

@@eyesburning Yess 👆 during the verses as this video was referring

[@doubledragtap]

Exactly! It's a sample. It's a nice groove to practice, but it's also a really tough one.

[@timballou8611]

What a cool idea you've got here. Thanks for sharing. This shows new drummers the simple fact that yes, YOU CAN PLAY DRUMS, and it does not have to be exact. I'm 50 now. At 9 years old, it was a record player, headphones, and much frustration. We couldn't afford lessons, so I joined a band at 12 and learned in a band setting. I wish I had this back then.

[@hadifelani]

I completely forgot that this song is so challenging for beginners. Thanks for uploading this.

[@justinsayswtf]

Those successive kick drums in the verses of In The End are actually not played that way by Rob Bourdon. Mike Shinoda edited them in during the mixing/mastering process. Rob’s final drum take without those kicks added in can be heard on the unmastered final version here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fafchI2Vhrt5pJI

I thought I was a level 5 I have been playing for about 45 . But I got to tell you this one got me. The five bass drum beat. Not 12345 but 1234 all the rest and then you at the 5 with the first four. Mind blowing.

[@citrineflora]

Love this! Hoping to hit level 3.

[@huplim]

Thank you Brandon!

[@bombshellblonde544]

Alright time to binge watch another series! Seriously this is great. I barely have any independence at all and I can play level 1. Also, this e-kit sounds really good. They've come a long way since my dad played in a church worship band on one. It sounds way more like real drums

[@czolgistta]

It might seem like the drums in that song are the basic of basics but let's be honest for a moment -> Those five kicks are what make that song.

[@MyDrummingJourney]

I’m between the 3/4. I’ve only been playing drums for almost 10 months. I play on an electric drum set. Thanks! Always love these types of videos 👍🏻

Strange, I never thought of this as a complex song. I am now corrected. Good stuff!

I heard an isolated drum track from this song recently that kind of blew my mind. There's actually quite a few ghost notes in there on the snare that I had never noticed in almost 25 years of loving this album.

The level four though is actually played at 2 strokes in the beginning. listen carefully during Live Aid 2005, Rock Am Ring 2001 and other performances. you can hear Rob playing that part differently than the recording itself.

I really like these 5 Level videos. So for a tricky kick drum part like this, would direct drive or chain be a better choice?

[@RyanxDunn]

I think anything would be fine for something like this. This might be something tricky for someone at a particular level, but it's not really tricky in the grand scheme of things. You could do this with a lower-quality pedal and well-practiced technique :)

[@thisguy8106]

Man, i wish KZbin was as it is now when I was "in a band", and learning the drums. It was from 2005- early 2009. And i haven't had a drum set in over 10 years now, but back in those days, while KZbin existed, it wasn't anywhere near what it is now. I would have been a much better drummer if I had Drumeo back then. Instead, everything I did was self taught. And i did so much wrong, including how I held my sticks 😂😂.. My son (12, about to be 13) is having the experience i wish i would've had growing up. He plays percussion in Band in school. So he's been taught how to do things correctly, so one day when/if he decides he wants to play the drums, he won't be starting from scratch.

[@nicopianopiano8665]

Salut Drumeo ! Petit message de France : Oui je joue sur Kit electro car le bruit à Paris, tu sais... / which means : Hi from France ! I do play on an old Yamaha DTXpres III I know it's old but still does the job ! 'cause you know, noise in Paris man...

Good tutorial. For me personally it is easier on a dubble kick but not everyone has that set up hence maybe why the specific showing. Love the content

[@haboo9282]

I have a double bass setup, and although I still lack the skill to play it, I'm curious how you can get the hi hat pedal note in along with the double bass notes. Seems more difficult than with a single bass? Albeit with seem difficult honestly 😅

as a drummer since 1996, not regularly playing, and haven't played a kit in about a year... but an avid air-drummer!. I feel I have this on level 3 at least... and level 5 I know is attainable. I might be over-selling myself a bit, but with a bit of knocking the rust off, and practicing that 5 pattern on the kick, I can have this ready to go in no time! again... probably overselling myself a bit. LOL Next up.... Subdivisions by Rush... 5 levels. (LOL) that's a joke Brandon...

I saw a lot of cover of 'In The End' and they kind of switch the 3 bass drum notes into 3 floor tom notes after the 1st bass drum. 😅 Which i guess is easier and more cool. What do you guys think?

[@cangulersonmez8886]

Somehow level 4 is for me more difficult than level 5. When I was learning 4/4 oscinatos on kick drum I was practicing 4 16th note kick already many times. That pattern is not that difficult but it requires a bit endurance. But level 4 is getting me around the independence issue and odd time zones. Still not too difficult but I need to practice that.

I have a question. How do I set up my pedal the best for fast paced kicks? Should I set it very loose or should I set rather strict?

[@requiemdrumcovers]

Personally I like it as tight as it will go because the beater returns more quickly, but I think it comes down to preference at the end of the day. Experiment with the different tensions and find what fits

[@asamann1738]

I set mine about 70-90% tight and have it a little angled to my left. That way my foot is sticking crooked to the right so I can bend it to the left and move it a little right for every hit. And I have my seat about as high as it’ll go.

[@williamsadventures7508]

Level 5

[@abdurrahmanzulfikry9202]

But Rob only played the level 5 in studio, he played level 4 instead on live performances, maybe because LP usually played this in the middle or near the end of the set. Still a great drummer tho, really tight but still groovy, love his beats on tracks like Little Things Give You Away, Final Masquerade, and Iridescent (that little ostinato tho, I haven't seen anyone covered it and played like Rob).
