This is better than DCI...better than Blue Devils, Vanguard, all them! These drummers are PLAYING THE SOUL OF SPACE! They are drumming with they mind, emotions,body,and spirit! Simply nothing but impressive and amazing! I can't stop and won't stop watching...matter of fact...LET ME GO ENROLL!
LOL. Too smooth. It look like about half the line was madd high though. Feelin' themselves a lil too much. That's how it's gotta be sometimes though. It's like that line from Half-Baked;"Have you ever performed in a band on weed?". This was awesome and full of subtle flare. They really draw you in. Feelin that ol'school step from the tenors as well. This was dope.
They really remind me of Morris Brown back in the day. Not the movie Drumline Morris Brown, even though those are the actual drummers. Been keeping up with these guys for almost 3 yrs now. I love every minute of it.
The opening cadence sounds like a remix to a very familiar cadence played by SCSU's BBI of which BBI played in early days of the RJ Sargeant era of the Marching 101.
Just found this. Really just need to note that it's a different tradition than DCI or traditional college bands. Definitely the cleanest I've seen in this style. Would be interesting to see God actually use it as a cadence.
People keep saying how it's so smooth. I want to be in high school drumline next year, and I can't tell how it's so smooth. I just hear everyone playing literally altogether and no one messing up... Is it the dynamics or something? Visuals? Thanks in advance to anyone :)
Just like Khalila Perry said. It's takes a lot of practice to be able to be as one like these guys. Once you get the opportunity to join. Take advantage of all the clinics and ensembles that are presented to your music program. Before you know it you'll be one of the best.
Great camera work, great stick heights, great coordination, great grooves, great... everything. See a lot of wandering eyes tho! I'm sure when performance time comes everyone lookin' straight.
i thought this drumline has been dope since 1993 and in the last twenty years my opinion hasn't changed. Worry about your own drumline because trust me cold steel is not worried about yours!
Tht redbone cymbal female player is sexi :)....but besides tht man tht was the smoothest I've ever seen...an the tenors were swag gin the hell out the whole cadence the whole entire time...can't wait for season to start so I can see all the upload vids of y'all frm this comin season
It's called a game face. Some call it a "mean mug." Whenever you're strapped up and playing it's time to throw down. All about business. After the cutoff and you put the drums and sticks down you can go back to smiling. :-)
I think other schools was jus scared mentally to play against CS during this era....they look like they ready to fight ya....Classic CS line here!!!!Top3
I am going back for another bachelors (even after I already have my masters) just to march!!!!! I need a back brace and a water backpack and I'm in there!!!!!
As a drummer for almost years and having many friends in dci as well as being exposed to dci, this is not some crazy thing don't think I'm one of those assholes who ruin comment streams I'm just saying that this drumline is more of a crowd pleaser instead of a serious all out drumline most of their rhythm are all easy and simple but what i give them huge credit for is their ability to listen to each other though simple their drumbeats require them to be cohesive as a group and they really work out well and for the most part is was pretty damm clean
These are FIELD CADENCES so they are designed for the FOOTBALL CROWD. But please don't assume that this is ALL that we do. You don't get this CLEAN without being TECHNICAL too. So if called upon to do the TECHNICAL, we can do THAT as well and VERY WELL if I might add.

Terrance Wicks thank you so much. Even though this is an old video we still keep the same work ethic and progress.
That is one of the most clean smoothest cadences. I can feel them feel that cadence. Nice arrangement cold steel
The control at the beginning to play at such a slow tempo and play it clean will always be impressive to me.
I played percussion that’s definitely control 🔥🔥🔥😮💨
I watch this every morning its like my coffee lmao
Me toooooo
i watch this shit like twice a week it jus be rockin too hard lol
Still watching this till today!!💯💯
It is great to see southern style drumlines still alive. Strapped snares and basses. I bet that gives you no pain in the back when wearing them.
This is one of my Favorite drumlines
PERFECTION............... COLD STEEL......
Man the pocket beat is serious!!! Starting at 1:41 Reminds me of a go go feel
Dmv vibes they sleep
I love this!! Keep representing young people. Yall have it going on.
Man this grooves so smoothly. I don't go to NCA&T but I know nice stuff when I see it. Mad props from E.O.S. here at DSU. Great job Cold Steel!!
I can watch da last groove section all day
Hands down da coldest drumline in the land! Dci or not! Cold steel got them beats. Sound like they drumming to the battle field
My favorite cadence of all time indeed....
LOL. Too smooth. It look like about half the line was madd high though. Feelin' themselves a lil too much. That's how it's gotta be sometimes though.

Feelin that ol'school step from the tenors as well. This was dope.
These cadences give that stank impression of how funky the groove is
One thing I respect most about this drumlins is their style is there own. No one can stick like them or groove like them.
They really remind me of Morris Brown back in the day. Not the movie Drumline Morris Brown, even though those are the actual drummers. Been keeping up with these guys for almost 3 yrs now. I love every minute of it.
Very VERY clean! I love it
That bass line deep af!

Their dynamic control is sooooo advanced! S/O to cold steel, good job.
Cold steel is raw to the core every section is on point
Yesssssssss The Tenors!!!!!!
I need this every morning when I wake up just smooth
The first two cadences (up to 1:27) have been played by Cold Steel for OVER 30 YEARS!!! (Bring back memories of my Freshman season Fall 1984!!!)
+M Wilson That groove at 4:30 up until the 7:00 minute mark is killin' ain't it? Smooth and Technical.
no words. simply bombastic GREEEAAAT. THX very much! You made my day ! GBY
U guys have a very FUNKY drumline. Big ups from a die-hard Jukebox fan.
Still practice this and the warmup from 2013 daily!
At the end dude with the dreads was like this nigga doing to much 😂😂
People keep saying how it's so smooth. I want to be in high school drumline next year, and I can't tell how it's so smooth. I just hear everyone playing literally altogether and no one messing up... Is it the dynamics or something? Visuals?
Thanks in advance to anyone :)
Its the execution and style. It takes patience and hard work to play "altogether " without messing up. You will understand when you start band
Plus, this ensemble has a very relaxed and sophisticated time feel. They are altogether, and swing like crazy!
Just like Khalila Perry said. It's takes a lot of practice to be able to be as one like these guys. Once you get the opportunity to join. Take advantage of all the clinics and ensembles that are presented to your music program. Before you know it you'll be one of the best.
What makes them so smooth is their relaxed behavior and the 2 things that make them all in sync is dynamics and stick heights
Great camera work, great stick heights, great coordination, great grooves, great... everything. See a lot of wandering eyes tho! I'm sure when performance time comes everyone lookin' straight.
I like the basses and the tenors ..them tenor player are legit..
Freaking amazing!!!!!
I feel like I'm in slow motion listening to this
I come from a DCI snare background but I love the groove
ReddRojo same but tbh when it comes to Drumlines it comes to how Clean they are through rudiments and hard written licks and etc
Coldsteel is definitely the best drumline that is not DCI
This is the classics my Boy this is southern
Folks that march dci are 10× better than percussionists that march in black college bands. Everything is a groove, no diversity.
Nice and clean and crisp love it
i thought this drumline has been dope since 1993 and in the last twenty years my opinion hasn't changed. Worry about your own drumline because trust me cold steel is not worried about yours!
Shout out to my bruhs! Cold Steel '91.....Keep doing it!
Thanks from Canada. If I ever make it down your way I'd like to see this live. Great show.
they sound AWESOME
7:25 - 8:02 them guys look sooooo handsome man

CloakedKiller a wassup i play tenor to what school yo play for
That's what makes them ColdSteel

But at the end of the day, arent all drumlines crowd pleasers? Lol
he counted it in signal its called line perifial or however u spell it vision.Guiding right is following.
when people start hating that means you're doing something right
i cant freakin wait to start playing with cold steel.......and whoever said this was boring, you must have never seen a REAL drumliine before
Luv the pocket......groove
amazing.. i am always impressed
4:47 Anyone know the name of that cadence or has sheets hmu
they are so smooth
Challenging these guys to a line battle would be suicide...
you obviously never heard of scv double beat 2004
bro dis was made in 2013 lmaoo A&T was ass from 98-06
SCV vs these guys would be a slaughter. A&T cant compete with that
Andres Monterrosa ur fucking dumb i have a close relationship with almost all of them and i guarantee A&T will always take da dub wit this line
Benjamin Butler have you ever seen a drum corps? Its a completely different level from this.
This shit so hard 🔥🔥🔥
Idk wat year this was but this it their best squad.
