Great demo. Thanks for posting. I always loved the drums to this song - They're un-typical, a little quirky, and very satisfying. I recently heard Budgie (that other great quirky drummer from Siouxsie and the Banshees) say he loved it when you came across songs with unusual/interesting drums and gave this song as an example. I know its been a few years, but I would love to see you cover his drums for Happy House some time. Anyway, enjoying the channel. Cheers!
So many drummers have no soul, time, groove or feeling. In a world where it's sometimes overlooked just to be flash and cool, this sorta approach to drumming is still my favourite. Copeland, Porcaro, Gadd, Philips....the major session players got all of their work because of feeling the music. No tick, just soul.
If Terry Chambers hadn't gotten his Aussie girlfriend pregnant and Andy Partridge could have held up to more live touring, XTC would have really gone places. Damn shame.
I believe Andy Partridge came up with this as an upside down drum pattern for Terry Chambers to deal with - right hands, right pattern, wrong drums. Terry came back after a while and said ‘right you f**kers, I’ve got it!’ 😅
Xtc man. I can hum this song and ma mum says ..u drove me nuts playing that song over and over with the drums lol. Well played
Brilliant song-Brilliant drumming - XTC were one of the most underrated bands E V E R !!!!!
Tight crisp and right. Well done.
Proper job max...great to see this song still influences

BUDGIE! Amazing band! RIP Burke Shelley. Fave tune Keeping a Rendezvous.
Makes a very tricky drum pattern look simple. Love the cross over right hand snare hits when hitting left hand crashes.
One of my favorite songs!
This is a difficult beat to do, well done mate.
Reason I never did Drums.
just started playing the drums and this drum cover is hard to get right! well done to Max.
Hypnotic to watch - well done sir.
Stefan approves
One of my favorite drum covers. Great job on a difficult song
Love it - thank you for sharing
Perfect!
be proud of yourself youngman, that was an excellent cover, a job very well done,and you made look so effortless, good on you.
You just did my favorite drummer so much justice! Thank you!
Beast 🔥👏🏽👏🏽

This type of drumming reminds me of My hero by the Foos.
Terry Chambers was always a snarl of a drum. Beautiful playing by you Max.

Terry's doing it now...and let me tell you...after 30 years of not playing, he's still got it...so has colin...check out TC&I
@@SonicVineyard oh yeah!!
@@bruceewilson If XTC kept touring, they wouldn't have lasted 5 more years..
As it were, they lasted 18 more.
Very good cover
Great Playing Max...
u did a really great job, this song is amazing so good job
Thank you very much
Excellent job. This is quite a tricky song to play.
FNA, Dude rocked it!!!
Wow man, excellent cover!
I was always wondering how the double accent on the hi hat was done in relation to everything else (I have only heard the song).
Looking good ;)
This is very well done, and I absolutely Fucking Love this song, thank ya ma fwend!
FUCKING AMAZING MAN!
LOVE watching my brother play this, he JUST got into it cause of my wiafu playing the song.
Man, he LOVES PLAYING IT NOW! 🤘😎🤌
Top Notch. XTC are classic.
nice cover!!
excellent
thanks Max
Solid! Love the China crash. Regarding the high hat accent is there any footwork on the pedal involved to clip the shimmer sound?
Sounds like there is
Very nice.
Up there with Porcaro and Gadd! Nice.
it's epic dude =)
Well done.
max, what type of drums and heads are you using. sounds great bye the way!
Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

KICKASS!
This beats Britains Got Talent for enjoyment
Fuckin' Tops, mate!
I'm late to the show, but do the Primus version.
Cheers man. Yeah that would be nice, but would involve buying another camera. One day though
kind of sounds like Mystic Rhythms by Rush ,....if you isolate the drums
hey, really cool, be good to get more cam angles
GOOD JOB. I STILL LIKE THE PRIMUS TIM "HERB" ALEXANDER'S VERSION BEST.
sounds so easy until you see it being done
It's a drum cover video, not a Michael Bay film.
Great job, certainly not a straight forward beat.
Pretty good cover. You're not as good as Terry Chambers, but I think it's impossible. So nice performance already.
