ALWAYS such fun doing Breaking Benjamin tracks, it's always really powerful but also super groovy. My favourite kind of jams. I kept things pretty basic for the most part, didn't want to step on the vocals too much so only threw in a few surprises in here and there. The tom-bend fill at 1:30 is probably my favourite in this track :)
Also SO amped on the drum mix here, very very punchy (due to the original drums being really loud in the mix already) and the snare tone just makes me smile. Worked really hard on this, stoked how it came out.

UPDATE: I just released a new DRUM LESSON PACK! -> bit.ly/CobusLessons. 5 lessons, 90 minutes, for 27 bucks. It will make you better at tuning drums, mixing drums, I'll show you my practice routine, my worst habits as a self-taught drummer, and teach you one of my favourite linear licks. Thanks for being here!
2:25 2:40 I gotta say, I am impressed by your ability to create pure platinum out of thin air.
You are absolutely killing these re-covers.
EDIT: I realize it's not a re-cover in hindsight - it was the fact on the Pop video at the end, and on this one, he calls the whole thing the Re-cover Project, is why I made the comment.
+Andrew Quartararo Seriously some one call the cops, there has been a murder.
+Andrew Quartararo Except this isn't a recover
+thedrumguy re-cover.
+thedrumguy frosty was talking about this not being a REcover, not a cover, which the title says. recovers are something different.
+kodiak wild
Exactly. And a quick look at the description would show that this song came from Breaking Benjamin's Dark Before Dawn album released this year.
This year has been a good year, BB and Cobus came back! !! !
BB cpt?
Alan Lordini Breaking Benjamin
+Stin i thought you meant Blackberry xD
+Stin Still think that the new Breaking Benjamin album is subpar. Maybe thats only me ...
+GGOnline you also gotta think that Breaking Benjamin isn't as young as they once were lol. So for their age, and for the time they've been out of the game..it's a very well recorded and written album
THIS is how you do a drum cover! Color inside the lines, but venture outside them tastefully and when it adds a unique element to the original music. Take notes, people! Cobus is the king of drum covers!
5 years later and I’m still coming back to this video for these 4 time stamps
1:30
2:00
2:26
2:41
🙌🏻
You ain’t kidding! So smooth
6 years
Add 2:50 to that list 👌
Sweet lord 👌
No kidding, these are all amazing but the four cymbal choke section is just god tier. I have shown this to so many people and they just don't understand how impressive it really is to pull that move off so cleanly.
Dude, you have such authority in what you do; not only behind the drum set (which is so clearly visible) but also 'behind the scenes' - it comes across the production of your videos, what comes out of your mouth and what your fingers type... I don't know if that makes sense but seriously bro, you're an inspiration.
I'm still here man, it's been 8 years and IT STILL makes my day when you upload a cover. I've missed you Cobus, my man. You are the very essence of energy that made me pick up my drumsticks and enjoy it to this very day. Thank you.
Will always support you as on of ur most loyal fans!
Also submitted my song from Black Bourbon Sunday to your Re-cover project.. I will pray each day to see you play MY SONG.. when one of the reasons I play like I play is you..
Cheers man, love you and thank you for giving me this passion, this meaning of life that is drums.
DAYUMM, killing it man. those cymbal chokes at 2:25 are too smooth for me to handle
im a guitar player, been playing for about 10 years. but cobus is the only person that has ever EVER made me want to get behind a drum kit.
I love that you're making videos again. can't wait to see what comes out of the re-cover project.
Wow... I gotta say this cover gave me goosebumps... absolutely amazing
Watching Cobus is never boring he's so into the music, I can relate. Perfection man so tight well done to my favorite drummer
I love the end parts of your videos, how natural and wonderful they're. Fantastic drum cover!
Brother i just want to say been watching your videos since the beginning, its amazing! how much your abilities have grown you've been just killing it, and i just love your videos brother best of luck!
I hate that the fan base has to wait so long for a video, but it's so worth it.
Cobus, I'm absolutely in love with this new Re-Cover project you're doing! Watching your video on your site melted my heart! My band is in the process of writing material right now, and I think your project is the thing our band needs! Much love from Minnesota, USA!
I've watched this about 50 times and I'm still in awe........
2:26 is the reason I return to this cover time and time again.
Loving the meaning behind the re-cover project! I look forward to hearing them!
You are amazing Cobus!!!!! The launch of your new project, the flawless cover of breaking the silence by my favorite band and your overall goofy smile/attitude made my day. Year infact!! I can't wait to hear more from you. 😃👍
its awesome to see how fluid you are. probably one of the most relaxed/kill playing I've seen in a while. 👌
Oh my word!! Cobus, you are killin it on your covers just like always!! Please don't ever stop creating incredible content! You are an inspiration to me to keep creating drum cover videos on TH-cam!! You are a flippin BOSS!
Such an awesome drum play through.
Amazing fills, and great song.
You’ve been an inspiration to myself as a drummer over the years Cobus.
Thank you ! 🙏🏼😁
this is what I call freaking precision and intuitive playing.

great job by editing the sound, too.
I been watching your covers from since the beginning , I bet ya I’ve watched them 10,000times . That said I am blown away with this one man. Thanks
I'm in love with their snare sound!
Dear Cobus,
Can you please stop making me wait a week for your next cover. When it comes to your covers I am very impatient and I would appreciate if you just launched them all at me so I could feel like a kid in Christmas again and stay in my house all day watching your videos.
Sincerely, just a bro who loves your covers
Cobus dude....blowing me away. You're an inspiration for me, thank you!
watching you drum is so hypnotic. love seeing you post covers
You have so much groove. I love it. I missed your covers!
No words for you man. Simply amazing, as ever.
After all this time and I finally stumbled across an amazing cover of such a great song. Your fills are crazy good and on point...I may not have the coordination to play the drums but I certainly have an ear for it...and for you sir, job well done !!!
absolutely amazing, cobus. these are so fun to watch!
Hey cobus I just wanted to say how much of a great drummer you are! You are truly blessed!😄 Keep up the great work man!!😄😀

KING of drums on TH-cam man!!! No question, (Love the comedy in the end dude lol) best personality
Honestly this to me is as inspiring and motivating as anything I have encountered. Phenominal.
Holy crap! 1:31 is killer!
+Dwight Fontenot he does it in the 'club can't handle me' cover with tyler ward
So awesome to see you back! You are killin' it!!!
So excited for more if your amazing covers. Keep up the great work.
1:29 How do you come up with these fills?!!?!?
+Ben McCreery Love the creativity you bring every cover
That little trick of pressing down the tom to change it's pitch has been used before in some drum solos but I've never seen it in an actual drum full like this! And he plays it so flawlessly too! Major respect for Cobus!
+Dom “Dommy459” Gilburt *fill
That fill was sick, watched it like 5 times
I know ryt????he is amazing..one of the greatest legends of my drum life.
Cobus!you awsome human being!again u rocked it!youre my idol i like your style.keep it up,i love it!

Man this is so sick. I've followed you for so long and you've really inspired me. Cheers man, you're a very accomplished musician. You're awesome!
bro, this is my favorite video so far, I had to rewind a few times to see all your rolls and combination. Can't wait for your next vid. #bigfan
Great cover, and hearing about the new project is very exciting! I can't wait to hear all the music I've been missing out on. Also, sent in my own application!
Love these new covers, man! Keep them coming :)
Really enjoy your vids. As a fellow drummer I check your stuff out from time to time for some fresh ideas. Thanks!
Welcome back Cobus! I hope one day my drum covers have the production quality of yours! Killin' it!
Brother the emotion you have is awesome bro....i love it man.

Amazing build-up fill going into the bridge at 1:59, Cobus. Very creative and very catchy. Keep up the awesome work!
You've grown so much during the past years. Much more mature playing, fantastic finesse and awesome details!

I cannot wait until I get my drum set to start playing like Cobus in this video....too much fun covering this song in particular, Breaking Benjamin needs this guy to play them with this melodic touch.Bravo!
That was really good! Awesome drumming and sweet setup you have.
Oh, what's this treat!? Now you're really at it.
I'm so glad you covered one of the songs from their new album. This song definitely has a lot of great double bass transitions that give it a great aggressive tone. Very sharp. Just when you think you can't surpass perfection, you always keep me watching man!
Keep 'em coming man! Especially if you cover another one from this album (cough cough, Defeated, cough cough)
(P.S. nice touch with the rack tom sound manipulation when you hit the tom while your other stick was resting on the skins. Cool sound overall)
what a comeback!! always impressive!
Been watching you for years. You've come a long way. You're a freakin' MACHINE now! Great job!
Love it! Your drumplaying is so awesome. Can watch over and over again!
So full of win. My favorite new BB covered by Cobus. I am so moist.
