- After listening to the new album, Invincible was immediately a standout song. And it was probably the favorite song I heard them play live on the tour. Danny's songs are always such a pleasure to learn, and to play. The constant experimenting with 3 over 7 in this song is outstanding, and the way DC orchestrates it throughout the song proves once again that he is a true master of the art, and that he continues to improve.
I'm very excited to be recording again, this time in a new home studio. I'm loving way the drums are sounding with this new setup, and I'm looking forward to recording more songs. As always, thanks for watching and for your feedback. I can't believe it has been almost a decade since I uploaded my first drum video to this channel. And many of you have been watching and commenting since nearly the beginning, so thank you!

My first video to hit a million views! Thanks for the support, everyone!
Hey John! Thanks for the content man. Honestly this shits incredible! Have any projects to tackle?
You deserve it! 🤘
I love your playing. This is perfect. And I love playing Invincible, but on guitar. You deserve this million and more.
🔥 legitimately - this has inspired me to pick up my instrument of over 30 years. i stopped playing ( bands, studio … all of it ) about 3 years ago due to a traumatic event … this song. this cover - has fully inspired me to pick up again. do you have your isolated recorded drum mix available to purchase to jam ? this is almost perfection. thank you john.
Often go to your site to see if you added more great drum videos. Happy for your Million views. When can we expect a new one?
I can only imagine how fulfilling and satisfying it must feel to have mastered this masterpiece.
I know dude that's what I was thinking Just listening to it is awesome
Danny Carey said this is the trickiest TOOL song he plays. Quite the accomplishment man!
Who misses Johnkew!??
PLEASE come back you are a god amongst drummers
MEEEEEE!!!
Omg. Mind boggling. Fkn unbelievable. I don't even understand 😅
He’s learning the rest of Fear Inoculum
Now he's a pickleball paddle reviewer haha
after this performance he reach the nirvana
love how this lad looks like the captain of an irish fishing vessel and he's out here straight up MURDERING tool covers
oh captain my captain
He studies extremely hard to deliver what you see. He is amazing, enough said!
I'd say he looks like Wolverine.
He actually is a captain of a fishing vessel lmao :))) you need to be a good drummer to do covers - to cover Tool is 'pure insane talent'.
I thought you said Irish fighting vessel and that sounds terrifying
Basketball jersey or it never happened..
laquerhead024 underrated comment.
Hahaha win
Weird thing about Carey. Always threw me off. Best comment on here btw.
You get a gold star and the rest of the day off
@Gary Shack1970 Also, he was this close to taking a very different route and go pro in basketball...
No amount of three-pointers can replace Danny Carey as a drummer :D !!
My favorite part is when he hits that 4/4 grove mixing the open hi-hat. So simple but sooooo fucking powerful. Amongst all the polyrhythms this simple breakdown shows what a skillful artist can do with simplicity. Oh, I forgot to mention the guy slaying this cover with surgical precision. Putting in fucking WORK. Keep it up man!
I exactly know what you mean.And it is sort of weird at the same time, as besides all the crazy drumming this part becomes incredibly satisfying
This is the most incredible drum cover I've seen
Yeah, when it comes to playing the tune absolutely perfectly for 12 min and channeling somebody's playing style, john's the man. I'd advise you to check out Delta Empire's cover of Smack my Bitch Up if you like a great cover that adds to the track
@@TMmodify comparing a 12min danny carey piece to a pop 90s edm song isnt apples to oranges, its apples to a coloring book picture of an orange lol
There's a 17 yr old kid on YOutube that is really great as well.
Clicked on it with no hesitation. Can't wait to see you do Pneuma.
Oh yeah, bring it!
Yeah! And 7empest as well. I still have to figure it out how danny composed that part during the infinite solo. It's unbelievably beautiful. The way he "plays" with the tempo is just crazy💙
Same! This was a genuine surprise but I had to watch
Aside from 7empest the build up and crescendo of Pneuma is the greatest sounding moment on album. That and the dual Adam Jones guitars on Descending. Danny Carey is the greatest drummer dead or alive imo and there's no talking me out of it.
he's gotta do 7empest first!
John, you are just a beast! You're literally the only one out there who can cover TOOL appropriately and accurately. Knocked this one out of the park again!
Hi. I make drum part of Invincible in your ultimate guitar tab ;)
You guys should just find the appropriate bassist and mix your covers together, I would actually pay for that !
no
Thanks Max! And great job on your Rosetta Stoned video!
@@johnkew Thank you! Means a lot hearing that from you!
The look of joy and exhilaration when you reach the 11:00 minute mark just shows how much you enjoy this, John, and it also shows a very intimate portrait at you. Man, your technique and videos are a sight to behold. Much respect, John. By doing this you also allow us to look a the genius of Danny Carey, and for that I'm also grateful to you.
Never would’ve imagined 7:25 was drumming. Here I am, binging all of your videos. You’re absolutely killer❤️🔥🤘🏻
Same!! Just saw the part and im scrolling thru the comments l9oking for others talking about it
He actually did that polly rhythm part alternating from the ride to that electrical tom correctly. Haven’t seen anyone covering this song actually do that. Props dude.
Yes, I've been amazed, I barely can understand what's going on there, before watching this cover!
when in the video does this happen?
@@nak5eno616 from 4:43.
Flawless
I’ve sat down several times and tried to figure out that alternating part between the ride and e-tom @4:43 but it’s so crazy weird I got discouraged. It’s the only part in this song I struggle to play. Maybe revisiting this video and seeing it done visually will help me out. If I could give any advice it would be to go into the setting and slow the video down as much as it will let you, count it out. I’m sure I’ll get it. I just gotta remember to stay patient and consistent lol
Imagine writing all that drumming, thats the hardest part .
Respect for DC.
Ikr. Like how tf does his brain work?! Would love to spend some time in there
I mean you can imagine anyone of them writing his part and imagine them combining them then imagine conor singing each part on sync going higher and down with his voice then imagine how they all finish at the same time while their rythms and calculations are not the same...
@@t00lh43 you won't come out alive 🤣🤣
AKHMASSI Mohamed Conor?
@@t00lh43 You need a 12th level intellect to survive in there
Bro... Wtf? What a talent! You're one of the few people who can play this as perfectly as the original... Simply amazing
For the people giving this a thumbs down….you know nothing about nothing….very well done sir!
Right? How totally bizarre. There are truly 'ugly inside' people...strange and sad.
To those people upload your video of you doing it better! If you can't then just move on!
@@roadracer900rr3
Can you do it better then perfect? 🤔
Lol. I think not. Those ppl are just pissed because they can't play poly
I agree! Super impressive!
Who the hell would give a thumbs down?
You got haters man. That means your doin it
His physique got so neat after all the reharsals for this song.
Should've seen ticks and leeches
Don’t forget, John is also an archeologist and working a dig is not easy work.
Yesss I've been waiting
Fancy seeing you here bro lol. John is an absolute beast. Without being a drummer it's hard to fully grasp how F'ing hard this song actually is
Jon Sudano Thanks for stopping by dude, and keep rocking \m/
now its your turn :D
_some_
Somebody once told me you were waiting
bruuh 2 years.. we need more!
its crazy how this song doesnt look all that complex and slow for the first half but its intricate polyrythems that make it slap much harder than an average beat. great stuff
It cant be invincible when you've slayed it
you have to actually watch someone play it to truly realize the genious of Danny
EDIT : John wrf are you man? It's been 2 years :/
Yes i was thinking, okayyy this is not sooo difficult, then i watch this and have to say, this is top notch drum level !
@@xavkoston16 as a drummer, I knew it was hard when I heard the polyrhythms. Yes, watching it makes you realise it's even harder than it sounds, haha.
Said dude said
Exactly, it's unbelievable
Nah, only if your a pleb.;) Those feasting with the Kings Shadow can hear it.
This is one of the most beautiful songs they've ever written. And I finally understand the verse thanks to you. Amazing job, man.
I always thought the right hand on the verse was random accents. I realize it's actually a polyrhythm going with the 7/8. Sweet.
2:40 that litttle build up gets me every time great cover 🔥
I gotta give Carrey even more props now that I’ve seen it this close. To write this is absurd
He’s the GOAT, man
That's what some people don't get. This guy is good, real good. There are guys like this who can learn this song, but Danny created it out of thin air. Danny's drumming brain functions on a whole other level.
Absolutely, absurd. The level of independence on this track is unheard of. The control is masterful at that tempo.
Exactly my thoughts! To watch someone play this is mind bending. To think that someone created this from scratch is mind-melting.
💯 people listen to Mozart and wonder how that happened. I listen to every track on fear inoculum in sheer amazement that this music was created
As a deaf drummer I really appreciate the dedication to being as precise as you can. I love watching you play and you've inadvertently helped me with my playing over the years. Amazing job with this one and, as others have said, you even did the synth part. Absolutely amazing.
This is some of the best feedback I've ever gotten. Thanks for sharing your story my friend - I'm glad that these videos have helped!
I would like to watch more videos 🎶🤩 please, amazing job! You rock 🤘🏼🥁
The greatest drum cover!! I fucking love how tasteful it sounds!! Great job John. Absolutely loving it
You look significantly more shredded than last time.
I feel like you have to be to play the drums this fucking hard, like holy shit.
After having covered several Tool songs on drum, you're bound to get shredded.
Still rocking the camo gorilla t-shirt too! A classic!
@@kumquatmagoo That's definitely a bear. But yea, I noticed the same thing.
the vascularity!!
Never clicked so fast on a notification coming through on my phone!!!
Here I am watching this again. All amazing sounding drums
Great drumming is not about recklessly beating everything in front of you...playing unecessary drum fills...its about patiently executing with perfection. Great Job. Just loved it.
When I heard this song for the first time, I was like: Shit, this is my favorite Tool song, ever..
Now, almost one year and thousands of listens later I'm like: Fuck it, this is my favorite song ever..
Bro, my Spotify said that I listened to this song 176 times last year. Probably 80 of those were trying to forward figure out the timing. This, in my opinion, is one of the most musically significant songs of my time. It’s an amazing composition.
Possibly the most accurate drum cover I have EVER seen. Amazing dude!
right!! Hits the technical aspect of it.
What about Danny Carey's cover of "Pneuma?"
Fire
Killer!!! Awesome!! Invincible!!🤘💪🥁
What is truly amazing (other than the obvious skill/talent/chops you exhibit in covering Danny) is how closely you get to his sound on the drums and especially the cymbals. One of the things I’ve always loved about his sound is just how bright the cymbals are as well as the electronic components. You capture both of those nearly perfectly. It really is incredible.
As a life-long Tool fan, this really was a treat. Now I have to watch all of your videos :)
Job well done!
Watching someone else play this is super impressive, now imagine WRITING this drum part to begin with. Danny truly is a master of his craft.
If Danny is God, then his little brother has returned, and with enhanced muscle tissue!!
John... SUBLIME work! So worth the wait... I swear it was like I was waiting for Fear Inoculum all over again!!! And with the synth?? Goddamn! Just PERFECT! I was literally jumping up and down when I saw you change the settings on the pads at the break right before the synth part!
Just epic man... Reliably, as usual, the BEST covers of Danny's insanity are yours. Your hard work and perseverance never goes unnoticed, and has DEFINITELY paid off...
Not trying to be a glutton here, but... 7empest? 😬😈😬😈🔥
Truly amazing work man, and the perfect comeback for God's little bro! Fantastic stuff!
Thanks man! Yeah when I saw DC play that synth part live, I decided to invest in that Alesis. It'll come in handy for Fear Inoculum too.
@@johnkew YESSSS!! So worth it man... Fully completes the cover, and, if I'm not mistaken, as far as I've seen you're the only one on YT to employ it properly as Danny does on the original recording...
And Fear Inoculum, huh? I have one thing to say: Yeeeeeeeah!! 😁😁
You're amazing man... Keep it upppp!
Not quite. Danny is God, then this guy is Danny as he appears on Earth (but also His son), and then there's a ghost out there somewhere....
John its unreal insane technique of Daney Carey makes me crazy...you did soooooo insane job with it! The best Cover i have ever seen!
John Kew you did a brilliant job.
Holy Mother of GOD. This is a Karo Parisyan judo throw mixed with a J-Lo booty mixed with a Nyjah Huston 18 stair hammer mixed with cocaine. Also Danny Carey is king. Excellent cover... amazing.
Karo was so fun to watch....sad he had his demons which kept him back.
Not a place I expected to see a Karo Parisyan reference. You get a like 😊
I’m air drumming and I can’t keep up...this is an amazing performance!!!
Nyjah definitely know how to crooked grind on j-lo’s ass
th-cam.com/video/d-9ubROeMMM/w-d-xo.html
I mean... Damn!
The first tool covers I watched you play you looked so afraid to make mistakes, probably because it took so many takes and so many time out of your days. You played too tight and struggling.
Then you stated on Rosetta Stoned's cover that it is 11 minutes long of polyrhythms, as it was something to go painfully through. It sounded like sth difficult to get done, despite your improvement being evident in that video.
Now, my man! It's a pleasure see the song flowing out of you so naturally. You're enjoying the challenge of the song with a grin in your face! It looks almost as natural as watching Danny himself play such a complex song so relaxed, as if it was nothing.
It's amazing to listen to this work of art and watching you play. It must've taken some long hours to get to this point, so kudos to you. You played this one like a boss. Awesome.
One of the first things that went through my mind as I listened to the album for the first times was how epic would be when you make your covers of it. You surely delivered.
Absolutely incredible man. It's one thing listening to the drumming in the song, but being able to see it and hearing the drums louder is insane
Danny is one of the greatest drummers of all time. imho .02
Very challenging poly-rhythms and you NAIL it.
Well done
Everything is just perfect, the drumming, the drumset, the cymbals, the e-drum elements, it sound outstanding. Really looking forward to Pneuma...
MrMarco84 f
HE’S BACK!! 😍😍😍
7:11 Gaaaaa-leee. I watched this video 5 times in 2 days. I can't get over how perfect of a cover you pulled off. Mad respect
Have an amazing 2023 John!! I want to see Pneuma !!! Give us that amazing piece of art!!
With the utmost highest compliment and respect i say this, fucking finally. Its as if seeing the song being deconstructed, just so beautiful. Thank you! As the album is, it was worth the wait!
(definitely hoping) might we get to see 7empest please?
Bump.... Like MASSIVE bump!!!!!!!! 😈
I'm hoping he covers the whole damn album!
7empest would be a treat
@@yousefabudaqar6728 yaaaaaaaaaaaass!
Straight up slayed it. Never lost the pocket, didn’t blow a fill rushing through it, just spot on every hit. Power and timing and intensity and dynamics right on the effin money... I’m genuinely impressed.
I've literally never seen a more precise cover of any instrument in any song. Well done sir.
This is art man...nothing more nothing less. This is why TOOL is loved by a particular group of people. Few will understand...most of us will not...GOD i love this band.
I've listened to Tool for so long that I got so used to "hearing" the polyrhythms and my brain not reacting in a dischorded way to them. In a way, taking them for granted. And then I watched JUST the first two minutes of this before being blown away once again as I had so many years ago when I first listened to Tool. The sheer skill and mastery of being able to compartmentalize every limb in a different time sig. and pattern (and being able to SEE it) reinvigorated that amazement I had for just how special and talented each one of those members are and especially Danny. And you my friend have that same gift and are on the top tier. Awesome and thank you!
Yea tie it together so smoothly it doesn't stand out. Many other bands you feel that "off" beat (sorry i'm not literate in drum speak) where you thought the pattern would repeat, also sounds cool, but the way Tool plays it doesn't feel uncomfortable.
1:40 even has time to scratch his chin, for crying out loud...
GOD DAMN!!!! Those fills at the end are insane. I appreciate the song more now after watching you play it.
The drums have such a huge influence in this song. Fantastic performance and thanks for sharing!
my favorite thing about this video, strangely (beyond the fantastic playing of course), is how loose and resonant the snare is. i noticed it on the original recording as well, and it's just so authentic... both in terms of the original recording on the part of johnkew, and on DC's part going with the theme of the song. john nailed it in EVERY POSSIBLE WAY.
5:15 INSANE PRECISION. I put this song on repeat for weeks and I’ve heard this part COUNTLESS times. You really nailed it man.
I'm a guitarist, but I love watching your video's more than any other on TH-cam. Beautiful performance 🤯👌🏽
Well done sir! Very smooth with your transitions! Much respect for anyone that takes on Danny Cary's master class of drumming. He was talking about this song, Pnuma and the grudge that can fatigue him and maybe cramp up a little bit playing these night after night.
Nailed it! Hell yeah man, outstanding! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
i am just sitting on the chairlift with my snowboard, only clicked to instantly like.
gonna watch in the evening with some nice whisky
Díky moc
Haha, I'm alone at the store I work in and there are no costumers so this is blasting without a care
Any time someone shoehorns whiskey into a conversation you know what a massive fucking tool they are.
Art: who hurt you?
@@maganajp15 alchohol isnt a personality trait
I love that when you play Tool, you actually understand the emotion that is in it. You're not just covering a song, you're playing it with heart. soul, feeling and understanding. You're a powerful musician mate! Love from Australia.
I think your the only drummer that can play Tool songs like Danny does. Great job, John.
Dam John. You nailed it. And you know it. Every time you smile you know you killed it. Amazing. More vids please
Was honestly about as hyped about this as I was about the album. This was so damn good John, keep up the great work!
I woke up to this notification and freaked! Told my gf if anyone can fill Danny's shoes, it's you! Killer job!
JOHN THE LEGEND!!!!!!!!! Dude you got me into Tool with your covers, glad to see you decided to grace us with another one your performances on YT. Nailed it per usual!
That's great! If I can get even just a few people into Tool, I've done my part with these videos.
Those covers help me appreciate Tool's music - seeing how it's being played just makes it better :)
Oh god, oh gooood! I just can't breath You rock man.
Achei vc aqui, profe!
Yep. So good dude. Nailed it as always. Made my day. Taking my 8 year old to the Tool gig in Auckland in a couple of weeks. He can't get enough of it.
10:09 this is so amazing I love it. And seeing you play this absolutely awesome finish of a song makes me appreciate it even more because it’s absolutely wild
Nice to see Hugh Jackman staying busy between films.
Damn those cymbals sound so satisfying, every single time...
This is how the drums should have been mixed, they are the soul of every Tool song also, the dislikes are from people who wish they were this good on a kit.
And gaynard should be out of the band
@@behindthen0thing525
He definitely doesn't put in as much emotion and effort as their earlier stuff so I can agree.
@@MelStaub they're over the hill. They'll never release another album. They were in their prime 20 years ago.
INCREDIBLE!!
John, That was immaculate. I cried my eyes out in a few parts because of how well you played it. That was a pleasure to watch. Thank you for spending countless hours practicing to make that what it was.
Totally agree. Not in a big rush to be the first to cover it sloppily. Patiently developed into a perfect performance before submitting it. Obvious deep understanding of the very complex yet subtle rhythms happening here
Can you at least wipe my mouth off, John?
I have to watch this again. This cover is so satisfying. I was about to clap and stand, but then I remembered I am in the office
Yea same. i 'as bout 2 clap but then i realized i cant keep up the beat lol
@@kurikumo4803 lol same with headbanging. Its hard to keep up
The way he hits the single notes on the cymbals... I’m dying. Perfect cover. Keep em coming
Absolutely phenomenal!
Man...... this song, especially the drums is like building up over and over again. Props to Danny Carry, also this cover was rad!
The only person I like watching cover Tool. Been waiting for this one for a while man, welcome back.
you should also look for Meytal cohen and Glen Monturi. (And me if i ever make it to post something on youtube lol.
Me as well. Let's hope for more FI covers.
And the kids that play 46&2..! 😀
@@henryrollins9177 yes the O'Keefe Music Foundation. They are awesome.
Yes, finally! Mind-blowing, absolutely gorgeous! I didn't know that the synthesizer part could be played on drums! 😱 Thank you, John, for your immensely gigantic work! Amazing! You are an example of dedication and hard-working... But I'm already looking forward to other songs (maybe, Descending next? 🤗).
You're one of the best drummers I have ever seen in my life. You're absolutely amazing
テクニックもだけど、音作りも含めて完璧なの凄すぎる……RIGHT IN TWOの時も良かったけど、これはさらに凄い
The legend is BACK we missed you John! Great cover as always 👍🏻
Almost forgot to watch this today...
The mixing on the drums is solid.
Just Awesome. Freaking spot on perfect.
I’ve been drumming my whole life, comparing your cover to others, there is no comparison. Every note is precise, its easy to see how much work you put in your covers. Amazing man.
This just shows how incredibly talented Danny is. All of the different time signatures on hands and feet. Blows my mind! With that said, John, you did perfect! You are immensely talented as well!
That was absolutely unreal!
Absolutely nailed it. Have watched this about 100 times I reckon. Love ya work!
those are some of the best sounding cymbals i've ever heard
that is right, especially that Dizzy Ride, I already searched for it but its not available in my country i think :(
I know right? Sort of blown away by how incredible his cymbals sound here.
I don't think you missed a beat! Sounds like a perfect rendition. I have been watching from time to time and I can't get over your discipline behind the kit!
CLASS...Absolute CLASS !! 💯💥👍💪👏👏🏆
Wow wow wow💪🏼
Thank God, you gave us Johnkew.
Finally !! You even included the synth part, what a legend
Hey John, I'm dying to see a good drums cover from a prog metal song named "Vinushka" from Japanese band DIR EN GREY. I think you would love the drums on the Remastered version of it, would love to see you cover it ! I think it's very reminiscent of TOOL in a lot of ways
Their latest release is also a 10min prog piece, absolutely gorgeous, named "The World of Mercy"
Definitely check them out, you would make a long time dream come true with such a cover !
Man if you had a Patreon, I'd probably pay big bucks to make that happen
He doesn't miss a beat....ever..literally
That was the least tool son* I’ve ever heard. It’s more like if nightwish was more black metal, hella gay.
Absolutely nailed it!
Bravo!!!! Unbelievable !!!
No one:
Danny Carey: Needs more polyrhythms
Danny Carey: I wonder if I can set up another pc just behind me so I can drum in 18/16 with my right elbow and then I can hold an extra stick in my mouth and do 7/4.
Guys? I've just added a couple of new techniques, and perfected them in about 20 minutes, and wrote 6 more 20 min pcs. Let's put another album together?
what is a poly or a rythm
Ethan Hunt it’s when you add a brain to each arm and leg and play different time signatures with each limb but make them sound good and eventually line up... Basically.
@@joshruds2775 Ya i figured it out after a while
Mike Portnoy: I should have concurred!
As a drummer. I feel Danny plays with so much passion and feeling. You can hear his soul in the percussion. Same with Tomas Haake
The duo polyrythme gods
