Went to high school with him. Glad to see someone who was quiet got to express themselves and show their talent to a crowd like this. They're my favorite band right now
1:20 Caleb walks up with the perfectly timed cymbal choke. Nice. I guess Caleb does write and play all of the instruments on their records. So he knows all if the parts in each song really well. As simple as this cymbal choke may appear, it really does make that part sound a lot more badass than of the cymbal just rang out
@@DieParan00bs If you look at live performances of August Burns Red, Jake sometimes does some clean cymbal chokes for Matt. I think it's not as much a question of writing the parts as knowing them and great camaraderie between the band members.
soon as I saw that left hand at 0:14 I knew I was in for a treat. this shit had me cheesin hard. Connor is such a monster dude. whenever someone asks why drums are the sickest instrument, I think I'll just show them this.
@@steventurner1628 yea I remember watching those videos with both of them on Aaron's custom Truth kits. I'm not a drummer but I learned a lot of technique from those videos.
He periodically does a lot of moves that look like hair flips too, he did used to have long hair, funny how those mannerisms stayed. It's definitely his hype and keeping himself high energy :)
Crazy seeing how far Denis has come. First saw him on his videos of him doing drum lessons with the all might Aaron Gillespie of Underoath. That is why he is so aggressive and has a similar style. Aaron is one of his inspirations
This dude deserves some credit. He doesn't overplay and isn't doing anything super technical but he has some super unique snare fills at uncommon points of the song as well as using his Tom's uniquely. He just has the feel. Can't explain it. Reminds of Daniel Davidson.
Grinning from ear to ear while watching this! Connor is a monster! And I reckon every time he plays this song the fills get more and more elaborate haha
Naw he was kinda sloppy with BAAO. He's cleaned up pretty well and he's super solid in Beartooth. His aggression fits in better here. BAAO went crazy soft.
He sounds way better in this video than some of the others I've seen. In earlier videos he sounded rough. But this video he kills it!! He is an amazing drummer
There’s something about his energy when he’s playing drums. He loves playing music and it shows. When he’s feeling it and his head starts shaking and the teeth start showing with his underbite you can just feel what he feels.
One of the more underrated and underutilized drummers currently. He's an absolute monster behind the kit yet Caleb won't use him on the records. Connor is a beast of a drummer. Check him playing with Being as an Ocean.
Has anyone ever been in his situation being in a band but not having any creative control or even being the one playing om the record? If so how do you keep motivated to play? I feel like that's like I wouldn't be able to give those up and still be a happy musician.
Mex Hurms first off, is that a trash talk photo in your icon? If so, very rad. Secondly, I checked that part out and I’m pretty sure you just create these fills very simply by doing RLRL with the hands followed by RL with the feet, and in different combinations. It’s pretty much one of the most common metalcore combination fills that you basically can create by hitting different parts on the kit (between snare and toms of course). I hope that makes sense.

Just ...... AMAZING !!! 0.0 superbe découverte 🤘🎸
This is my dude! I had so much fun watching Connor rip it up everyday on warped.
he stays rippin
Wuttup Gabe! You tore ass too tho man
Both Connor and Gabe are beastsssss. Inspirational for sure. Love watching them!
Went to high school with him. Glad to see someone who was quiet got to express themselves and show their talent to a crowd like this. They're my favorite band right now
Gabe just out here with the compliments haha you both rule 🤘thanks for your hard work
I love how he adds crazy chops and fills that aren't in the original song and he pulls it off perfectly. One of my favorite drummers.
This dude is living my moto: play everytime like it's your last
1:20 Caleb walks up with the perfectly timed cymbal choke. Nice. I guess Caleb does write and play all of the instruments on their records. So he knows all if the parts in each song really well. As simple as this cymbal choke may appear, it really does make that part sound a lot more badass than of the cymbal just rang out
True, very true!...An alternative way could've been Caleb just knowing when Connor D. hits that crash and time it well.
He writes all of the bands stuff. He even recorded the first EP completely by himself. (He was the only band member at this point)
@@DieParan00bs Yeah I know, crazy shit for sure
@@DieParan00bs If you look at live performances of August Burns Red, Jake sometimes does some clean cymbal chokes for Matt. I think it's not as much a question of writing the parts as knowing them and great camaraderie between the band members.
@@DieParan00bs He recorded the nexts albums by himself too btw. Except he was not recording in his house but in the studio hired by redbull records
Why isn't anyone giving Caleb credit for that cymbal choke at 1:22
I honestly didn't catch it. Rad.
\m/
It sounded hot. Thank you for that Caleb
HOLY SHIT I FIND IT AWESOME THAT HE THOUGHT "Hey maybe that'd sound dope"
I had to watch some other live videos to see if he does that. He does.
When I'm playing drums all calmly, Connor is a visual representation of what's going on mentally.. I need to express my shit like him lmao
Jess CCQ looks like cocaine helps too
esp 2:34 lol
Me too, unfortunately im on a budget kit, might break cymbals, heads, and sticks more often haha
2:43 When you're smashing the ride so hard you have to hold the snare for balance. The man is a beast
lol your joke makes no sense tbh
Really hope Connor becomes a permanent member of Beartooth. He's one of the best live drummers I've ever seen.
soon as I saw that left hand at 0:14 I knew I was in for a treat. this shit had me cheesin hard. Connor is such a monster dude. whenever someone asks why drums are the sickest instrument, I think I'll just show them this.
by the way, you're on point with all this content Tim. I ain't forget about you
He took what Aaron Gillespie gave him and literally just multiplied it by 1000x. So unreal!
Wait was Connor one of Aaron's students????!
@@taylorlowinger1206 yep
Taylor Lowinger yessir!
Taylor Lowinger pretty sure there is a video on Connors TH-cam channel of Aaron giving him a lesson wayyyy back in the day
@@steventurner1628 yea I remember watching those videos with both of them on Aaron's custom Truth kits. I'm not a drummer but I learned a lot of technique from those videos.
This guys definitely one of the top 10 drummers of this era. Extremely talented
It's refreshing to see him having so much fun with these songs. I was expecting a less-than-stellar performance, and he absolutely surprised me.
I've been watching connor drum for years now and I've never seen him play less-than-stellar. I'm actually pretty sure he's incapable of that haha
Connor is the man. He brings great rhythm and flow to the tooth. Always enjoy watching this dude play!
0:05, 0:33, 1:35, 2:24, 2:33, 3:02
He periodically does a lot of moves that look like hair flips too, he did used to have long hair, funny how those mannerisms stayed. It's definitely his hype and keeping himself high energy :)
dude lmaoooo thanks for this
thank you, this made my night better lol
IM FUCKIN WEAK
Jacob Strock I thought they would be the drum fills FFS
I love at the end Caleb Screams "CIRCLE PIT!!! CIRCLE PIT!! CIRCLE PIT!!! CIRCLE PIT!!!"
Connor was such a great addition to this band. Even when you aren't watching him play, you can just hear the energy he brings.
this just proves why Connor is my all time fav drummer man, he's the awesomest
2:24 *EXTRA* *EXTRA* *spits* *EXTRA*
2:41 how to break the drumkit, the sticks, and the floor below the drumkit
Crazy seeing how far Denis has come. First saw him on his videos of him doing drum lessons with the all might Aaron Gillespie of Underoath. That is why he is so aggressive and has a similar style. Aaron is one of his inspirations
I used to play with that much love, miss being in a band.
At first I thought Beartooth got a new drummer xD Connor looks so different with short hair
Jason LovesABR I thought they did but I could he wrong
Jason LovesABR Well none of them are officially part of the band, Caleb writes everything. So they might not need to announce it?
This dude deserves some credit. He doesn't overplay and isn't doing anything super technical but he has some super unique snare fills at uncommon points of the song as well as using his Tom's uniquely. He just has the feel. Can't explain it. Reminds of Daniel Davidson.
and has so much power to his playing
Grinning from ear to ear while watching this! Connor is a monster! And I reckon every time he plays this song the fills get more and more elaborate haha
Amazing camera work man. It completely captures Connor's aggressive style of drumming.
thank you
no.
I love this dude for giving everything, every time.
I saw this band/guy in Detroit,MI, and was one the best drummers of all Warped Tour. Seriously the bass drum and snare kicked my chest.
The best of all, definitively!!
This man is a fucking machine. I could watch him all day.
Extremely talented drummer. I want whatever he is on
So many badass drummers these days fr
that's the coolest thing ever at 1:21 , you can feel the synergy between both
I remember meeting him when he was with BAAO, he was so young compared to now, still one killer drummer
Absolute animal behind the kit, love this
FINNAAALLLYYYYYYYY BEEN WAITING FOR A NEW VID OF CONNOR
STK Studio I'll never miss a connor cam
toooooootes!!
So simple yet so powerful. Great drumming
This dude is a beast. How have I not heard of him?
im so proud of him he's lost so much weight and power on drums has become more stronger and more powerful you fucking rock brother
I WAS THERE IN THE CROWED!!!! IT WAS SO EPIC!!!
bro i love how much consistent power there is when he plays
Yo that fill at 0:40 is insane.
Haha Connors facial expressions are killing me 😂 perfect 👌🏼
Groovy, clean, and heavy.
Can't stop watching this.
I miss him being in BAAO
Josue Samaniego Me too. I miss when that band made aggressive music
Naw he was kinda sloppy with BAAO. He's cleaned up pretty well and he's super solid in Beartooth. His aggression fits in better here. BAAO went crazy soft.
at 0:08 the ride is like "o shit pls no not again"
I guess the rest of the cymbals aren´t happy, as well :D
I love his energy
He sounds way better in this video than some of the others I've seen. In earlier videos he sounded rough. But this video he kills it!! He is an amazing drummer
I watch this video every week to see this inspo!
Sick af! So much energy!
1:20 Caleb‘s Super-Tasty-Cymbal-Catch REPLAY BUTTON
Hit it!
There’s something about his energy when he’s playing drums. He loves playing music and it shows. When he’s feeling it and his head starts shaking and the teeth start showing with his underbite you can just feel what he feels.
0:40 great hi hat control
William Cairns he’s a good drummer but failed miserably at that part honestly
Afflicted15 oh what I thought that bit sounded cool af
@@jadonchacon4914 nah its clean you dont play drums
bkuhfus2 I do play drums actually, have been for 4 years now
@@jadonchacon4914 well I guess that fill just went over your head then
This man is a maniac
fucking amazing drummer!
man, this k light ride is the most best and beautiful cymbal ever!
"CIRCLE PIT CIRCLE PIT CIRCLE PIT CIRCLE PIT"
@2:43 he's literally leaning on the snare so he can hit the cymbal harder. I love it.
This guy is just amazing 😍😍😍
Most insane drum fills!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘wooooo!
00:40 that is a lovely little fill. It feels so lovely in the middle of that aggressive groove.
Absolute MONSTER, you killed it in Pomona bro
Estou chorando aqui. SENSACIONAL!
Whenever I see them play somewhere I'm just walking by, but their drums are actually great. He is going wild af. :D
wow, what a powerhouse! amazing
can't stop watching!!!!!!
I believe that is the snare head Connor sent my son later for Christmas!!! Really Cool dude!!!
The breakdown I swear😮💨😮💨 can’t crank those drums hard enough😭
One of the more underrated and underutilized drummers currently. He's an absolute monster behind the kit yet Caleb won't use him on the records. Connor is a beast of a drummer. Check him playing with Being as an Ocean.
Any videos from Alex Camarena from Silent Planet?
this is great. he's so into it
He goes fucking hard. And crazy thing this is Caleb’s material would be cool to see him play this live as well
Connor killed as always 🤘🏽
Such a powerfull drummer 🔥
Talk about energy, holy
Amazing energy!
This is like that scene from a diary of a wimpy kid where the kids go thru puberty and look way different.
xxkornmetalxx I mean he is barely like 20-21 lol he started with BAAO at barely 18 years old
dude kills it man 👌👌
Amazing
I didn't even recognize him at first, still a beast!!
The fucking most aggressive drummer alive
Joshua Haider next to Aaron Gillespie
Christofer Tapiheru He was actually taught by Aaron
Joshua Haider agree check out Eloy casagrande also
Silent Planet's drummer is crazy, too. And a beast!
Hell yeah, Alex is a monster
Probably the best performance on your entire channel lol
Dude releases so much every song
Also plays tight at the same time. Great drummer
Charisma overload
one of the best to ever do it
Conor denis is one of the best out there no doubt
Has anyone ever been in his situation being in a band but not having any creative control or even being the one playing om the record? If so how do you keep motivated to play? I feel like that's like I wouldn't be able to give those up and still be a happy musician.
Sounds like you’re in a band with Dave Grohl. You might need to start a new band if you want creative input.
His cymbal, drumhead& drumstick endorsers have gone bankrupt in the meanwhile...
His facial expression is literally the one of the drum monster of the muppets 😂👌🏻🔥
shit connor is looking good! he's changed since i last saw them live. Still fucking killing it!
Perfect drummer for beartooth!
I love you for upload this! 😍
A beartooth drum kit with more cymbals than a hat and crash? THEYVE SOLD OUT 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤
dude looks like he shredded some lines before that set. He's GEEKED out!
does anyone know how you call the fills he plays at 1:32 and 1:37? or what kind of combination it is?
Mex Hurms first off, is that a trash talk photo in your icon? If so, very rad. Secondly, I checked that part out and I’m pretty sure you just create these fills very simply by doing RLRL with the hands followed by RL with the feet, and in different combinations. It’s pretty much one of the most common metalcore combination fills that you basically can create by hitting different parts on the kit (between snare and toms of course). I hope that makes sense.
@@elijerrr yea it is! thank bro, just seeing your comment 2 years later
1:47 : LMFAO Hahahahahaha, his energy behind the kit is next level!
Fuck that was sick, plus he looks like he waa loving every second.
Absolute Beast
As a drummer myself i gotta say 1:21 is one of the best things i have ever seen😍😂
This mans stuck heights are insane
He’s going above his head at some points
