[@Wuirox]

Derpferdler Music 2 yes, that's right... nice video :), by the way did you use double pedal for this song?

[@Derpferdler]

+Wuirox nah I use a RB1 drumset so there's no way to hook up two pedals, using two definitely would've helped for this song lol

I had the RB1 drums too but mines broke.

Derpferdler Music 2 yea we see him struggling

[@johncastillo2631]

Derpferdler Music 2 I still think you did pretty well, I could only do the bass and vocals on expert, drums or guitar would kill me

[@electricnick260]

I appreciate videos like this because they show that not everyone is perfect at this game. Yes the "100% FC expert" videos are cool and I like watching them, but they seem to set this bar for anyone who wants to upload their gameplay of songs. We have to accept that not everyone is godlike and some people just like to play and record and have fun even if they're not 100% expert pros. Hell my highest score on the hardest song I've ever played is 68% on Metropolis on Expert. Do I feel bad about that? No. Do I constantly try to raise that percentage? Yes. But the point is to have fun rocking out, so who cares if someone isn't the best.

[@Derpferdler]

Well said, sir

[@InternetGravedigger]

Anyone who can get 100% on this song is either a cheat program or a well-tuned machine...

[@carlosvillalobos6477]

the drummer was really struggling lol

[@Derpferdler]

+Carlos Villalobos the drummer was me. This song is stupidly fast and repetitive on drums. I honestly have no idea how a human can play this song from start to finish

[@carlosvillalobos6477]

Derpferdler Music 2​ I honestly couldn't do any better lol I was actually just watching a video of someone doing this on pro expert brutal drums.

[@Derpferdler]

+Carlos Villalobos I know the video. Blows my mind

[@Derpferdler]

VeikkiS I've been playing drums on rock band for almost ten years, and this song is still too hard for me.

[@Derpferdler]

VeikkiS nah, I just haven't practiced the fast stuff. Never felt motivated to. I can fc quite a bit of stuff on drums, just not crazy charts like this one

[@davidquezada6398]

If i was the drummer i would DARE anyone to tell me to pick up the slack. i'll play this on guitar or bass on expert but ill be damned if id brake my foot and hands trying to do this on the drums PERFECTLY

[@ZorillaMyrid181]

So that’s what the original sounds like

[@SolidSonicTH]

You absolutely need a double kick to FC this on drums. I don’t think it’s possible without it. I think it’s funny how this song is five-starred before you even get the halfway mark because of the sheer number of notes. The biggest solo doesn’t even happen until after that.

[@Derpferdler]

SolidSonicTH the score is from the vocals. I recorded each part separately and pasted them over the vocals vid so it looks like full band
