Where you been man!

[@Stumpy801]

lol i saw a comment the other day that said "Kmac on drums" on one of spiritbox's vids and now here you are!

[@steve_matin]

Nice playing Kmac!

[@_thripple]

I love the ride choice. I like that it’s not fully crashing. Sounds awesome

[@iAutodidact]

I think it sounds... cold? But in a good way. Overall that chorus just feels like haunting, cold, trapped in death. I think that ride sound *really* adds to that feel.

[@almightysmilyyy]

Yeah, my g. That stick definition makes that chorus feel gnarly💯

[@krisalvarez7647]

Right? First thing I said when the chorus kicked in was "man that ride sounds wild"

[@str1897]

Reminds me of Silent Planet's drummer. Very tight, focused, no useless showoff and great patterns. Love this dude

[@Roboturnerlol]

I feel like Alex Camarena is constantly showing off his ridiculous writing ability, but agreed as well haha

[@davidzeager262]

More impressive is Mike writes the parts in a DAW but Zev actually plays them in real life! Amazing!

[@TulioG]

I met him after their gig in Dublin Ireland, such a humble and nice dude... Needless to say, a badass modern drummer as well

[@adamcogan211]

I really wanted to meet them but didn’t realise they would come out after the show :(

[@adamcogan211]

I really hope we have Zev on the next recording. The programmed drums that Mike and Zev made sounded incredible (and I honestly thought it was a really drummer) but I’d love to see the other band members get to perform and shine! Zev is an incredible drummer!

[@twostepghouls]

Dang no way, they fooled me! Didn't realise it was programmed at all.

[@josephborges1071]

Whaaaaaaat??

[@veikkalaru]

Eternal Blue has programmed drums. Everything since then is played by Zev

[@MaxReinbold-kk3tp]

@@veikkalaruNope. The ep is Programmes as well couse it was written on the road

[@shaun4314]

As a drummer, there is something about the off time hits during the chorus of Cellar Door, Eternal Blue and Ultraviolet that is just really fun to play. Solid as always, dude!

[@adammtroutman]

Off time? Naw Upbeats? Yaw

If you were able to correct me then you knew what I meant. That's good enough for me. Also, forgive me if I don't take "proper wording" advice from someone who uses "Ight". Ight? Naw Alright? Yaw

@@shaun4314 yeehaw. You’ll get it one day

[@dariojr14]

Hell yeah Zev! I see you!! That’s so cool how far he’s come from starting off in his basement to playing tours and being on the Zildjian Roaster! Love to see stuff like this, keeps me inspired ❤

[@IndialienJones]

That ride cymbal sounds perfect in this song. Excellent drummer

[@jb-rg1hz]

My favorite drummer since i seen spiritbox live a couple years back.

[@OliKember]

He plays with such incredible focus. Very inspiring.

[@lrizo3841]

That Z custom ride cymbal is perfect for what he's doing. I'm back to using my 22-inch ping ride, I'm doing a lot of crash/riding on it, and for some reason, it sounds super awesome and heavy. I've never noticed that before. It's way more versatile than I thought

[@Bioman87]

That ride sound is absolutely perfect.

[@firepilot109]

Awesome job! Nothing over the top flashy, just right in the pocket with some pretty cool little signature moves of his own!! I like complex heavy drumming instead of just thud thud thud bang bang bang!!! lol

[@frankgoldmann]

He is special. Very groovy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@drumxlion]

I just realized that zev is rocking the classic luke holland setup :D Even with the splash and the Stack. Great setup!

[@Jonh548]

This guy breaks it with everything 💪🏻👌🏻

[@gabrielgomer]

What a brilliant drummer!! Sure knows how to make his gear sound amazing too👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@TimmoTorus]

Ive been waiting for this playthrough! As soon as my knee swelling goes down, I'm griding tf out of this song.

[@MrGilyboy]

C'est une boucherie. Ça groove, c'est heavy, ça déchire! Thanks

[@edwardrummer]

Killing the kit! and with absolute precision 👏👏👏

[@Pericles777]

These Z Customs sound so much better than the old ones!

[@MusaTariq25]

Love how Zev is always locked in the pocket! Killer play-through

[@RS4xDave]

Zev absolutely CRUSHED this. Almost all the cymbals sound on point, that ride just isn’t the right choice IMO here. Too heavy for a crash. That China is perfect though 🤌🏻

[@EdWhiteHunt]

he needs that craig reynolds signature ride when it comes out!

[@mike__durrett]

​@@EdWhiteHunt not sure how soon it'll be, but Craig posted a vlog where he chose the final prototype. SO ready for it.

[@Swollen_Goat]

@@EdWhiteHunt yeah I remember him showing it off and talking about it in a recent live. His kit always sounds so fucking good. CR is a beast.

[@robjobse5162]

Yeah its a bit boinky

[@reynlord666]

@@EdWhiteHunt i came to write that i can fix this but you did it for me

[@upstateescape]

Lots of attention to detail on this one. Great job!

[@timmybus21]

this guy is awesome.

[@theopinson3851]

Love that little bell/splash lick around 1:30.

[@mraksie]

sheesh that ride cymbal sounds really good

[@Imaddrums]

LETS GO BRO!! So proud of you!!🔥🔥🔥

[@beastoftheeast6673]

I like the ride tbh.

[@ytsejam67678989]

That ride cymbal isnt the right choice at all for that genre and I LOVE IT!

[@RayHaglandMusic]

That ride do be tasty 🔥

[@andreasbreitwieser1449]

this young drummer has some deep pocket under his hat. Precise !

[@olivermueller7438]

This kid is a menace

[@MrErickson33]

hell yes 🤙

[@clintronious]

That ride is an icepick of DOOM

[@deathidimmu]

What splash is he using?

[@martin.adolfssson]

10” a custom efx if i remember it right!

[@adrianfuentes8423]

Solid performance. I love the simple approach, the simple kit and the raw power! The cymbals are great, however the ride cymbal does not like to be crashed, you can tell it is designed for a more pingy only-tip hit.

[@adamcogan211]

I disagree, I think the ride sounds tighter for this part

[@prahadrumsofficial]

Hulk, SMASH.

[@canoradam]

Zildjian. Stick with maybe the overhead and over the right shoulder camera. All these extra angles really take away from a great performance

[@jessewise6449]

Beginner drummer here: During the breakdown his left foot is bouncy up on a pedal that I assumed was the kick but I can't hear it all. Is he doing something else with his foot? I thought it might be the hi hat lift but I didn't see it moving

[@JonathanX95xboxlive]

It's the hi hat. A lot of drummers will keep their hi hat foot going to either keep time or accent beats, or both.

[@MannyMo_]

I love Zildjian but Meinl’s much better. Especially with there drum play through videos. Mixing is top notch with Meinl. As well as their cymbals

[@drummax1353]

Not to bad

[@adammtroutman]

That ride is incredibly un-crashable

[@claytonrath8033]

Yeah… makes me wonder why he is using it (along with the other Z cymbals, they don’t seem to fit his style)

[@musterelf]

You did notice that this is a Zildjian channel and also that Zildjian currently promotes the new Z Customs heavily? In the end this is more an advertisment… 😉

[@claytonrath8033]

@@musterelf fair enough

[@willburhans3018]

yeah this definitely more just to show off the Z Customs, bc zev usually uses K Customs

[@breakfast_kat]

EMPTY YOUR POCKET(s)

[@cadben]

Confirmed: Zev is a beast, aaaand these cymbals are absolute trash....

[@MaxCustom]

где твои эмоции, чувак ?

[@ThatOneGuyWithAReallyLongName.]

Incredible playthrough, but those have got to be some of the worst sounding cymbals I've ever heard.
