Veil of Maya - Mikasa [Sam Applebaum] Drum Video Live [HD]

Sam Applebaum, drummer from Veil Of Maya, performs "Mikasa" live in Atlanta, GA. (2015)

[@normalwhitedude]

Something about Veil songs that the drums and guitars just always fit so well together.

[@Gorillagamer44]

Synchronized syncopation

[@adityatyagi4009]

One of the best drummers for this style of music!

[@PeachyPetra23]

Bro he’s a fucking machine, the consistency is sick

[@KillYourDrums]

Thanks for the video! Sam Applebaum has to be one of the tightest drummers on earth.

[@blickumblickumblick]

He has an amazing touch, which you don't always see with drumming like this. Yet again the greats make it look easy.

[@Sodigerati]

Sam is a sick drummer! Huge inspiration for sure thanks for the videos!

[@TheJDiff]

its so weird watching a left handed drummer

[@sheerkanazi]

Tourist Garden CO also left sided drums

[@playgroundofmischief9837]

lol same

[@teacherfromthejungles6671]

watch the reflection of the video in a mirror

[@1dudecrush]

I can't fucking stand it tbh. There is a correct way to play certain instruments. I remember my band teacher in middle school telling us he wouldn't let lefties switch their instrument around just to suit their "need." Look at people like Travis Barker and Thomas Pridgen--both are lefty but they play righty just fine. If anything they might have an edge because their right hand doesn't have to compensate for a weaker left. I just can't get behind the lefty setup, it's wrong.

[@gibbles12]

If I tried that my arm would like snap or something

[@elmarkapp]

I love this channel so much. Such great content.

[@justanothertoker3123]

Elmar Kapp i.

[@gabrielhenrique75]

Thanks for the vids man! Only the best drummers!

[@spacepunchgaming6732]

THey seriously couldnt have gotten a better vocalist to replace the original. Loved the original, but the new one is amazing!~

[@johnsmith-so5do]

Im part of the 08 scene so I don't have much insight, but I really like veil. These guys are killing it!

[@Peter-xz9mt]

On another level.

[@denniskoore]

Sick drummer.. btw,boy this guy can sing!

[@josefogliarini897]

That vocals.....wowo

[@patrickryandrums]

This is gold.

[@chrisfudala3772]

The best left hand lead drummer for sure

[@abattoir632]

about to see them in ATL in february ^.^

[@otaylorgoulart]

Flawless drumming, flawless singing

[@darksolaceofficial6751]

This guy is such a beast.

[@kylewarner93]

I feel like everyone talking shit about the vocalist stopped the video after the first chorus. He sounded much better as the song progressed past it.

[@kballz8785]

That fucking modulation at 3:05 was banging

[@MrJacksonjamison]

Being a right handed drummer watching lefties play makes me super uncomfortable but no disrespect applebaum is sick as fuck

[@AusarisTV]

Jackson King I'm mainly a guitarist but when I sit behind a kit, I play both left and open handed. I suck at drums though lol

[@colinserbu2006]

Jackson King well said I feel the same way sometimes

[@ryanpatrickarradaza8239]

if your uncomfortable watch in in mirror mode.. damn this guys is sick \m/

[@deamon506]

Drummer is amazing. But I had a hard time getting past the singer. Especially in the beginning lol

[@CrNgLrD]

+Caleb Mathis yeah he sounds like every other metal core singer/screamer. and i don't think this was his best show though.

[@Naamionalle1]

The singer was crazy good when i saw them live last november with Periphery. He hit every note on point.

[@djentlover]

His cleans are great though

[@dumithegreat3892]

@The Anti Christ wow, super unique and cool dude. congrats!

[@lllucasm]

@Corby Dinsburger oh yeah? so tell me your favorite song from the common man's collapse and the reason

[@danieljordison0793]

yeeeeeeeeeeees

[@BLopes-ns9ze]

jason lee bey wants to do a double video of beneath the massacer with sam applebaum

[@henriquegoncalves9803]

Nice!!

[@tonyg1011]

there is nothing natural or clean looking about a lefty drummer but at least he's good. this guy can play, damn.

[@asakaz5880]

im lefty but i can sort of see what your saying

[@aaronalbaugh7541]

it does look extremely wierd lol but yeah this guy looks good

[@aaronalbaugh7541]

I honestly haven't seen very many lefty drummers

[@orchestrapark]

I'm a left handed drummer, same setup as him and it looks weird to me too

[@Boognish_]

Just cause it's set up lefty it doesn't look clean? or natural? That doesn't make sense.

[@jaooaj9340]

1:52 that frustration tho. But still sick!

[@Findrin]

Jao Oaj I swear that is the only time I’ve ever heard Sam fuck up ever

[@msgdeletdbymod4471]

was wondering if anyone else noticed it lol

[@saltspice2291]

Vocalist kills it... RAW

[@allnewmaterials7]

the singer is fantastic in the studio and maybe other shows but dayum he was flat on the chorus lol. applebaum slays it again though

[@hubertrapinat8275]

not his best performance for sure

[@nathandrums0]

Anyone is great in studio, live is what counts, however I do believe this was just a bad night for him

[@justinhart2977]

daemon sand I've seen these guys twice and both times Lukas did amazing. I agree with other guys, I think it was just a bad night

[@TheWitchOvAgnesi]

Yeah.. because this was a perfect mix... SMH Why does no one understand that videos like this are not meant to reproduce the exact sound at a show. Bruce Dickinson or Rob Halford would likely sound like shit on this too

[@maartenvalentin4162]

He is not talking about sound. He is talking about tone. If you can't hear he is going totally flat in that first chorus - later on he does much better, your argument is invalid. I am guessing this was the opening song and stage/in-ear monitoring was a bit off during the first minute or so. Also, because you say Dickinson would sound like shit (I will the Halford comment slip) your argument is by definition invalid.

[@กฤษณะเอมสาร]

โหดจัดดด🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭

[@dylanforrester-drumsvids2511]

You should post motionless in white drum videos or slipknot it would be awesome

[@xlexo]

More like Slam Applebaum. Damn boi!

[@NATA5II]

The vocals and crowd make it seem like VOM is some band that's playing in someone's backyard lol

[@nightmaressea]

what is the stack in front of the air toms?

[@kalveryigor1873]

Remembering to Alex Svenningson

[@RelentlessOhiox]

Hey now. I'm a left handed drummer. Calmate. Sam Applebaum is the goat.

[@IsaacGlezDrums]

Composicion: 10 Producción: 10 Voces y growls en vivo: 2 Drum: Obviusly 10

[@DeathChord67]

+Isaac Gonzalez wtf no puedo creer que digas eso de las voces osea primero el vídeo esta grabado de una manera que las voces no se escuchan tan fuerte y segundo mira los intercambios de los gulturales a las voces limpias es un 9 de una

[@IsaacGlezDrums]

Al contrario hermano, la grabación le da un énfasis mayor a la batería (obvio) y en segundo lugar se la dá a la voz. Y puedo escuchar unos guturales o growls muy forzados, aún más con los screams o gritos; debo admitir que las voces limpias son buenas (por eso el 2)... pero aún así escucho los cambios muy forzados. Y si lo comparamos con otros vocalistas que cambian de limpio a gutural y viceversa, queda corto éste vocalista... y más si lo comparamos con el vocalista anterior de VOM, yo lo escuché en vivo y en verdad tiene una potencia de voz clara, y nada forzada. Y si lo comparamos con otros vocalistas, aún mas abajo se queda. Así que creo que este nuevo vocalista hace un buen trabajo como compositor y productor... pero deja mucho que desear en sus shows en vivo. Al menos esa es mi humilde opinión. Saludos!

[@sinborn41214]

I don't think the vocals were loud enough

[@lukemoloney3385]

Damn, so much hate for the vocals. It’s hard to stay perfect out on tour!😅

[@lolokokogogo45]

search Pablo Martinez. he is a fucking monster lefty drummer

[@laszlogaborskriba2694]

What kind of samplepad is that?

[@evang4041]

Roland SPD-SX

[@metalmafiach8597]

Sam Sam Sam Sam (Punchfrieyer thailand)

[@painlessly_bc]

S-Spencer Sotelo?

[@drummersanonymous]

+Brandon Chambers Their singer is Lukas Magyar. I believe Spencer Sotelo helped produce the vocals though.

[@captainron4470]

this song is hard to sing live. he killed it

[@hecksongs9803]

killed it meaning he butchered it and it sounds bad yes

[@ND-iz6dd]

2:09

[@Mohamed636]

Goddamn I still love veil of maya but they sacrificed their live vocals in favor for sounding better on album.

[@obe0540]

If you're a lefty...why wouldn't you play open ✋? I would fo sho.

[@iffhit]

It's still harder than playing like Sam. I'm left handed too, and i play with "normal" set, and i need to think twice, before i start to play anything...

[@coreyroberts47]

I do, I like it better, kit opens up nice

[@itsCheezeh]

The vocalists singing is incredibly flat.. anyone else hear it?

[@argetect2847]

Cheezeh yeah I cringed pretty hard come the first chorus.

[@lloydf.2482]

kinda makes you wonder why you're commenting on their video from your mom's basement instead of making a living doing it like them huh? 🤔🤔🤔

[@Reborn95]

Go VolsGo cause it’s KZbin and everyone is entitled to an opinion and doesn’t need to do certain things to have an opinion lol

[@itsyaboimetalgod9913]

I guess that's what happens when you tour and preform every night

[@user-me7mm7gr1p]

@@lloydf.2482 Doesn't change the fact that he cannot sing it live, which sucks

[@isaacplaysguitar5269]

I feel bad saying because I love his vocals in recording but I feel like they need a new screamer but you can keep him for clean vocals lol... or just go back to not having clean vocals pls #BRINGOLDVOMBACK

[@Qwuarter]

+CryptikOniksHD actually on the clean vocals he was out of tune by a lot most of the time. But I agree he sounds awesome on the recordings.

[@george_nav]

I thought the singer pretty good. He doesn't deserve the hate. I mean you comparing a noname to one of the best metal vocalists out there guys..

[@anakbaliti]

Fucking A

[@mikelarranaga4951]

Wait but, punisher...

[@drummersanonymous]

Are you asking if we're posting that song? They didn't play it live. :0 Sorry, man. We still have three other videos though. 😁

[@SebastiantheBroseph]

+drummers anonymous Damn they didn't play Punisher?!?!?! That's actually pretty crazy seeing how it's like maybe the biggest hit they have if not def the most recognizable haha

[@DhylonShahGuitar]

+SebastiantheBroseph Not really anymore, this song is far far more popular!

[@1013Drums]

+SebastiantheBroseph They played it in Tampa

[@mitchellbarlowmusic]

+SebastiantheBroseph I'd disagree and say Not Safe to Swim Today if I'm honest, when I saw them live they played it.

[@boostedbuiltgarage]

Go the lefties

[@enzolrvdrummer]

I know singing in metal is very hard, but this singer is Bad, drumming tho, insane ,😮

[@abhi95407]

Lucas sounds like a fucking goat...never heard such an out of tone screamer

[@bombingbloke]

epic cleans but growling is horrible

[@madyaangsito7308]

you don't need 2 vocals when you have lucas maygar on your band

[@dexterdexter3911]

singer sound very different from the official video and funny

[@BaconLT327]

the people talking shit about the singing haven't seen too many live bands. children.

[@wackjetze8403]

Mr. Bungle ..

[@Truid]

This just showcases how horrible the new singer is...

[@HgHgHgHgHgHgHgHg]

Singer is giving me ear cancer

[@BaconLT327]

would LOVE to see you do better

[@tannerfry2415]

That vocal performance was fucking TRASH. Besides the clean parts. That guy is NOT a screamer by any means lmao

[@argetect2847]

Tanner Fry his first shot at the chorus was soooo pitchy.

[@ringcross5]

haha that's funny i was thinking the exact opposite, i like his screams ^^ well the clean is not "trash", but he's quite out of tune at some points. still good for a metal singer though

[@tannerfry2415]

Absolutely solid vocalist. Maybe it was just a bad set. Just seemed a little off. "Trash" was a little harsh of me to say.

[@tannerfry2415]

Arg Etect definitely!

[@colinserbu2006]

It's a live show. Anything goes. To me. It sounds good. I like rawness.

[@georgelesterton1154]

the singer should just quit and make this music so much better. No offense lol He really ruins it

[@Justin-nq6kf]

Not flawless 1:12 to 1:13 sloppy af

[@yucksuan]

+Justin Erra nope, he's playing eighth note triplets.

[@Justin-nq6kf]

Jimmy Lin Yuxuan Sounds and looks like a flaw to me but w/e. He's not ever close to being one of my favorite drummers. Just clicked cuz I like the song.

[@yucksuan]

+Justin Erra if you're a drummer, you should go check out matt greiner. he uses 8th and 16th note triplet fills all the time. it sounds offbeat but is actually in time.

[@Justin-nq6kf]

Jimmy Lin Yuxuan I know ABR and him but that was just off af and a miss hit to me. Matt is a good drummer and def in my top 5. My favorite drummer is Alex Ballew of Erra. Just love his unique style especially in their Augment and Impulse Albums.

[@OhThree51]

+Justin Erra Definitely not off. It's a purposeful 8th triplet roll.

[@rossforee5716]

Drummer is badass but that singer is so fucking bad .

[@user-me7mm7gr1p]

singer is too weak for this song unfortunatley live

[@AndyDuckala]

You lot, get up there and do a better job singing this song then
