(because I do covers I don't make anything from my videos so this would help me continue creating here on youtube!)
This is my second cover of a song off of Train of Thought. Make sure you listen to the last half of the song because there are some pretty challenging solos. I will be posting a drums only version of this video soon so make sure to subscribe.

Everything in the video was recorded with Earthworks microphones. They make the drums sound super clear so make sure to listen in HD.

I sweat just watching this. The amount of work that has gone into this is nuts but the unbelievable commitment and hours of hard practice to get to this level on all these instruments in crazy. Just the skill on one of them is a huge accomplishment but to nail 4 of them is monumental and what's more it is practically note perfect. Total and utter respect. The record industry should be ashamed of itself that it is so crap considering the talent that is out there like this.
