I don't think people understand how truly difficult it is to play at this level, be DEAD ON, and have it all be in one take from start to finish. So insane!
It's a super-wide lens used on the camera so it's a distorted image you're seeing. His drums aren't actually that far away. Also, we're not hearing exactly what he is hitting as the majority of the drums he is hitting are sampled which is why every snare and tom hit sounds exactly the same no matter how hard, or where on the skin, he hits.
+Sam Edmonds why would he put all the mics on everything then? Also he's always dead on with his accuracy, it's not surprising that his hits sound the same
Compression would achieve the same effect. He may quantise it a little just to polish due to this type of music needing to be flawless rhythmically. But i doubt its samples, just a good mix.
Matt, You brought me in with BMTH covers, the good old shadow moses and stuff. I consider myself a rocker but you did something that makes this cover the best thing You ever made for my eyes and ears, and therefor, my heart. I can't stop watching this after so many years of hunting good drum covers, listening to heavy music and enjoying your work! LOVE.
I've seen dozens of your covers, but I think this one tops it for me. 3:25 is just mind-blowing. It's been a few months since I first saw that and I'm still trying to figure out what you did there.
this guy is the best drummer I have ever experienced. this cover was epic. love your videos Matt keep up the good work. your fundamentals are out of this world
they're actually 32nds, not 16ths and they're actually pretty easy, they're just diddles (double strokes) but to do them that cleanly is pretty impressive, and at 140bpm that's really pushing the speed. the highest I can get clean 32nd note double strokes is around 120-130
This guy knows that a good artist must show his emotions while performing, enthusiasm is the key. If you don't love your music then others won't either. Props to you, Matt :)
"Emotional" You are no good for me no more, We don’t know how to love without a war. We’re a disease without a cure, You wanna hurt just a little, hurt just a little more. We are casually cruel, You were my training wheels and April fools, But our tolerance is full, Don’t wanna hurt anybody, hurt anyone no more. Length is a pity, watching your pretty smile so warm And I am already halfway out the door. And you’ll go and kiss me, say you were tipsy Baby, I lose my cool when I get emotional. I get emotional. You get emotional, too. I get emotional. We’re comfortably dysfunctional, I get emotional. [x2] You are detention after school, You are November in the swimming pool. A speeding car running on fumes, We can drive just a little, drive just a little more. You are a trampoline with wings, We’re only jumping out of tendency. Cause now we both need different things, So I’ll be coming off these streets. Length is a pity, watching your pretty smile so warm And I am already halfway out the door. And you’ll go and kiss me, say you were tipsy, Baby, I lose my cool when I get emotional. I get emotional. You get emotional, too. I get emotional. We’re comfortably dysfunctional, I get emotional. [x2]
Hi Matt, in bad days like the one i've had today, your music is what cheers me up most. So thanks For your efforts in doing this covers. You are amazing man!!
Am I the only one that's trying to figure out how this got a single dislike? Maybe it's because I played drums for years, so I can respect his talent.... but that s**t is unreal good. Truly enjoyed listening to this and every other song he covers!
Thank you, Matt! You inspired me to start my own drum-channel. I watch every video of you like 100 times and I feel like improving myself just by watching. U LEGEND ^_^
As You don't know,I'm not just a Gamer,I also do drums Alone at home just for fun And My Freaking Snare Broke!! Maybe because of slamming it hard or maybe its Made in TrashCentral Actually Matt McGuire is my inspiration/motivation for doing these Drum Stuff Keep Up The Good Drum Covers Matt
Ive noticed that you have less subscribers than a lot of the TH-cam drummers , yet you are probably the most talented one! But I think I might know why. Most people who watch drummers on TH-cam are beginners or a couple years into drumming and play on small kits. Playing on a smaller kit with less going on can be more fun to play, watch and learn. I understand that it's nice to show what you can do and is fun to play on such a massive kit, but maybe you should do I few videos Onassis smaller kit so people can take what they see and have a go at home. This is just friendly advice not hate, love your drumming, keep it up xxxxx
Watch Cooperdrummer. He often has so many toms and cymbals, way more than Matt, the drums just aren't that far away. I think he hasn't got that much because he doesnt cover mainstream songs (most of the time). I think no one searches for a drum cover of this song...
+Dave S. Yes that's true about the songs. Being a drummer myself I've watched coop3rdrumm3rs videos since before I got my drum kit, because he does do some covers on big drumkits, some on small ones and some simple covers so we can learn them and that could be why he has over a million subscribers
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW I´ve been watching some of your covers and I loved them but this?? this made me subscribe instantly!! Incredible. You sir are amazing!
My favourite cover so far...!!!
Let me know what you think. :)
Sickkkk
So sick bro, hoping to be as comfortable around the kit as you one day
One of your best for sure Matt!Loved the technical distribution of beats!
Amazing!!!! No dislikes so far mate
+PainCakes XD can u cover Bring Me The Horizon- Happy Song next pls ^-^
I don't think people understand how truly difficult it is to play at this level, be DEAD ON, and have it all be in one take from start to finish. So insane!
i understand for real...

Exactly, he is beyond anything!
This is so dope. Good work Matt!
Hey the is so dope
Awessome bro
Matt, You brought me in with BMTH covers, the good old shadow moses and stuff.

I can't stop watching this after so many years of hunting good drum covers, listening to heavy music and enjoying your work! LOVE.
1:07 😳
the snare was skipped a couple times ehh.
Who cares? It's a dope ass drum fill
I'm a simple man. I see a Matt McGuire video in my feed, I watch and I enjoy.
I've seen dozens of your covers, but I think this one tops it for me. 3:25 is just mind-blowing. It's been a few months since I first saw that and I'm still trying to figure out what you did there.
one day this guy is going to be the world's best drummer.. take my word
Him over Travis barker?
I love seeing the passion he feels for music all over his face it’s the best 😭😭
2:14 - 2:15
this is one of the cooler things he did like it goes so fast
Yeah, those are semiquavers.
love to play them cause they are so wavy 😵
I've been trying for 3 months to build the speed for those and it's so damn hard I just started playing 7 months ago
double stroke bro, sixteenth notes. hard getting that speed and accuracy though
Tomas s yeah i know
You make my existence feel insignificant.
His drum set makes me feel useless.
His hair makes me feel ugly
You should be inspired!!! :)
His hands make me feel grandpa
+Ross Lynch Nah man I think that's just you
whoever requested this song is a super smart person!!!!!!! awesome job matt mcguire keep it up!!!!
this guy is the best drummer I have ever experienced. this cover was epic. love your videos Matt keep up the good work. your fundamentals are out of this world
I don't know why I find these kinds of videos so satisfying
Matt you are literally the best drummer I’ve ever seen.I can’t go a single day without listening to your covers.you rock bro.
Everyone talking about the filler at 3:25, and I'm still in awe at the semiquavers at 2:15 lol
SuRa Reaper lol same ahahah
same.
they're actually 32nds, not 16ths
and they're actually pretty easy, they're just diddles (double strokes)
but to do them that cleanly is pretty impressive, and at 140bpm that's really pushing the speed. the highest I can get clean 32nd note double strokes is around 120-130

Baby, I lose my cool
when I get emotional.
I get emotional.
You get emotional, too.
I get emotional.
We’re comfortably dysfunctional, I get emotional.

You are detention after school,
You are November in the swimming pool.
A speeding car running on fumes,
We can drive just a little, drive just a little more.
You are a trampoline with wings,
We’re only jumping out of tendency.

Usually don't like these covers just because it's not my type of music but this was pure magic!
The Drum Cover is one of the best I´ve heard in the last 10 years! Great!
This track got me through some tough times. Love it.
Every new video is like getting to open the best present on Christmas morning.

I just can't handle this, you're such a good drummer. Keep on rockin'
Am I the only one that's trying to figure out how this got a single dislike? Maybe it's because I played drums for years, so I can respect his talent.... but that s**t is unreal good. Truly enjoyed listening to this and every other song he covers!
I come away impressed after every video. That was so awesome I don't know what else to say.

I'm still trying to figure out what wizardry he pulled off at 3:26.

It's just linear fills with double bass. Basically it's RL KK RL KK RLRL KKKK RLRL KKKK
+Dave Master Light he does doubles and one set of Quads after the doubles
+NathanDrums ok I guess I need to listen more closely
