as Caleb Shomo once said, "i don't care how popular some bands might become. None of us will EVER be underoath."

[@unclewillard]

Amen

[@SuperDrummerful]

Underoath is the only band where I would watch a keyboard cam too

[@metalcavy33]

That Casio gets a workout son!

[@TravisRichards-r9e]

Dudley is the man! I remember watching a dvd documentary as a kid and he would go crazy!

[@kirillburton]

As if he doesn’t write his parts amazingly enough, he performs them with such energy that the whole act is just breathtaking

[@mo0se3]

I always loved just how HARD he smacks those drums. I'm glad after all these years that he hasn't changed

[@wristsinside]

and he can sing (really well) while playing, too!

[@cmorto99]

So true this really captures the emotion and energy into his performance. He is such a solid drummer, always fun to watch

[@davidortman1872]

I’ve always loved how passionate Aaron plays but man when I saw them in concert I couldn’t believe how hard he was actually hitting those drums lol

[@Philthy82]

Breaks a stick at 2:43 and didn't even miss a hit! Nice 👌

[@CBG2895]

2:40 The fact that he lost two sticks back to back and flawlessly grabbed another without missing a beat, is truly mesmerizing. You got yourself a good one, VF. ❤️

[@pickelteets]

Top 5 in my book. Prolly top 3.

[@drummerjosh901]

Think he only lost the one. Stick broke in half and then he chucked the butt of the stick away. Still impressive as fuck that he never missed a beat though.

[@whitekidscantdance]

@@drummerjosh901I’m pretty sure he loses one a few seconds before the broken one, unless you don’t count the broken stick as lost. Idk, I play strings😅

[@rubenmazza_]

The communication and timing at 1:23 between Chris and Aaron are why this band will go down in the history books!

[@jtmalet]

Well they play to a backing track with a reference that counts them all in. Still impressive that they do it so naturally and seamlessly though!

[@DMVRCO]

@@jtmalet yeah agreed, their IEM's have a click and a heads up on whats about to come. All sets are planned that way, just performed to look organic.

[@briancasteel1193]

Lol

[@slycooper7513]

One of the handful of songs that brings me out of mosh retirement, certified banger

[@andrewhoel5927]

He’s so fun to watch. The energy, his ability, showmanship and the drums sound killer! Please release more videos, 🙏🏻

[@AshStGreen]

A generational influence. Changed music forever & he probably had no idea he was doing it

[@The_Rob_D]

Not really, but ok.

[@marcotejada1498]

@@The_Rob_D i don't know man. Some his drum fills are insane.

[@IndigoMusicStudios]

He definitely inspired a lot of the Travis Barker era drummers. Had a huge impact on some of todays most gifted drummers.

[@gadearamon]

HAHAHA Got love a stick break on a vicfirth channel video (This is sick btw)

[@PirateR4ptor]

Super smooth recovery. Pro.

[@jo3hamilton]

Aaron plays SO hard dude, I love his energy!

[@RudySoliz]

Aaron f’n kicks so much ass!!! Absolute gem of a drummer and band!

[@pickelteets]

Your favorite drummer's favorite drummer.

[@pickelteets]

The timeing. Lol aaron is crazy.

[@backdoorman1971]

Wow. This was the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. This dude bring his balls to the table. Insane

[@JeffRandallDrumming]

Love his passion.

[@francismotionless393]

It looks like aaron has two dreads on the back of his head. 🤘🤘 he's an amazing. He got me into hardcore music. "We're only chasing safety!" Such an amazing album.

[@chadstokes8096]

That snare is on GOD Mode.. DAMN

[@heartbeatsdrum]

That fuckin' snare dude. Damn.

[@crioni]

I love when he leans on the snare or floor tom to smack whatever his going to hit next 😅😅😅😅😅

[@cvblaylock]

Love Underoath and I think Aaron is one of the goats of modern drumming. I wish I wrote this song on the drums!

[@Cowboynudes]

One of the few bands I actually still enjoy after getting older

[@thejarrodwink]

I love that this video was posted by Vic Firth, but shows Aaron break a fresh stick like 90 seconds into using it..😂😂😂

[@brycereeder382]

Broooo! Can’t stop watching this !

[@kriskenard]

man is one of the greatest to do it, point blank period

[@The_Rob_D]

Not really, mediocre at best. There are literally thousands of better drummers out there.

[@kriskenard]

@@The_Rob_D as far as this genre is concerned, at his age, top 25. Yes I'm biased, you are a party pooper

[@danielruiz3853]

man was such a shame they never put drum cams on from back in the days. i remember watching the bonus dvd that came with one of the cds... think it was tocs but spence and tim said that arron was the best drummer, basically carried the group. i honestly was sad when Arron left, even tho they replaced him DD who was sick in normajean, but like they said arron was just another beast. Thank you piggy, you inspired me to play drums man, my high school was years was nothing but UO, and NJ.

[@masonfox716]

Was at this show. It was nuts. Aaron can SLAM

[@Mighty_Mersh]

This man always just drumming balls to the walls! \m/

[@adrianodrummerf]

Please, more videos like this!!

[@davidbarksdale3835]

THANK THE LORD IN THE HEAVENS ABOVE. I needed that. One of the greatest bands of all-time. Much Love.

[@HEALBOIBEDSIDE1]

one of my favorite drum parts gets a cam hell yea

[@300avg]

Never ceases to amaze me

[@dimitarstoyanov6615]

Aaron has always been an incredibly energetic performer but watching this video, it's evident that he's worked his tail off at upping his technical abilities. The raw emotion is still there but these days he's playing with a noticeably increased level of precision and intent. It's awesome witnessing him continuing to up his game this far into his career.

[@wdrumz]

You can't teach passion. The dude is filthy, Paul Koehler from Silverstein is another MONSTER in this genre. Omg... I love good spacing with drummers. Shows more maturity than tons of fills and crap every second.

[@LanningKann]

Check out Ben Koller. Another beast of beasts.

[@MichaelSmith-zw5fu]

I love how this is also the same video setup for the zildjain video that came out recently. At least two for the price of one

[@JoshFordFBR]

The Dale Sr shirt sold it for me 🤘🏻

[@braedonavants]

HE STILL GOT IT BOIS

[@SullyCortez]

F*ck yea dude still got it - love it!

[@kite0105]

Woah where was this snare sound his whole career? Such a great pop to it!

[@leonardocastilleja163]

Just the drum kit in general sounds amazing. Back in the day the deep beefy dead sound was the thing to have. I always hated it😂 I like cranked snares and punchy sustaining Toms

[@Jorboniels]

After LITSOS came out, one of their Australian tours, he had this 14 x 8 "gold over brass" snare that he took with him on tour, and that live snare sound is absolutely insane. Idk if the video is still on KZbin, but it was under the Truth Custom Drums Australia channel.

[@Jorboniels]

@@bbeau2023 found it! "Everyone looks so good from here" is on the same channel. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5bYo3-Iab9mars

[@michaelcrane85]

Probably there the whole time. Youre hearing the actual drum. In the studio engineers like to smash and compress the shit out of it when most of the time it would sound better just mic'd and EQ'd a little. haha

[@the_minimalistic_adventure]

I love how he grew out of having that rack tom so far to the left and flat. I don’t have a problem with it being flat, as a flat kit is fun to play, but his rack was so far off to the left that it almost looked silly.

[@IAmMattLewis]

Set up an IV, papa's back for moreeee Edit: man, those hi hats sound so good

[@chicorenny23]

Yes! Anything Constantinople sounds amazing!

Is it just me or are these intro grooves not in the pocket? My vibe must be off I should have never commented. Solid work 10/10 entertained

I kinda see what you mean. Probably just an off day.

Aaron probably goes through more sticks in one gig then Ill go through in a year

24" if I remember correctly.

They’re all rides😂 it’s a 24 k light and I think a 22 Constantinople over hammered on the left and a 22 Constantinople renaissance on the right.

[@interlude44]

I’m a drummer and I learned a lot from Aaron but I wouldn’t say he beast on it . He hits them drums pretty good and hard . Just mediocre for me

[@The_Rob_D]

I’m at a loss. The dude is solid, sure. But the praise as “one of the best” is so far lost it blows my mind. He is a decent rock drummer, nothing fancy, not very technical, and hardly any difficult fills. There are literally thousands of better drummers out there people, open your eyes.

[@interlude44]

Maybe he the best at being mediocre and probably being energetic. But hardly one of the best drummers

[@Adtrevino37]

You INSTANTLY know an Aaron Gillespie drum sound when you hear it. That's what makes him a legend. He created his own voice. Just like you can instantly hear a drum part written and played by Neil Peart (RIP). P.S. This is not saying Aaron is on the same level as Neil.

[@pixellite3413]

Boring...

[@dann7047]

boring? really?

[@IzhakIb]

Don't feed the troll

[@interlude44]

It’s aight drumming lol

[@jasonstockler]

All that spazing, and he goes off beat several times. May look cool but if you cant keep the beat, it aint neat.

He doesn’t go off beat at all? You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about.

@@haydenpeach3667 Yeah he does. esp in the beginning when he is spazing.
