Dudes crawling on their bare knees over broken glass to just breathe the same air as Chris Turner and Matt Garstka. And while those guys are straight-up killers, Travis has been doing THIS exact thing on TH-cam for FIFTEEN years y'all. Fifteen! That Greyson Nekrutman kid was in kindergarten when Travis started on here. An entire generation has been born and has grown up watching this TH-cam channel. Sorry to make you feel old, Travis. But seriously. You're by far the most criminally underrated drummer in the last decade and a half. It's true. It just is. Those of us who've kept up with you since Guitar Hero first came out... since you were in Periphery... and since Jason Bittner was the biggest name in metal drumming... we know the work you've put in. And are STILL putting in. Just wanted you to know that we see you. We see you.
Yeah I mean, Garstka, Orbin, Chris Turner, and Elliot Hoffman are probably my mount rushmore of tech metal drummers, to be honest. Tho garstka really isn’t a metal drummer, just kinda a jack of all trades… and a master of all trades lol
every time someone posts “ThIs iS tHe BeSt DruMMer EVeR” on some random guy, i come back here and shake my head in disbelief. Travis Orbin is the best drummer who will have ever walked the face of the earth. PERIODT
0:58 I wish there was more of this in metal. Blasts with accents sound like you're grooving and they're so powerful because you're playing with the wrists, it's so nice to listen to. It's such a nice change from the traditional blast we hear at 0:50. Travis, you're a beast, man.
If only extreme metal drumming could sound more often like this, instead of the usual "quantize/sample fest". This guy is always the real deal, no matter which style he plays
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 the orbinator shows he's still the GOAT once again.. also that story about the vocalist's parents is insane.. if you're reading this i'm truly sorry for your loss.. 🙏
out of all of the years i've been following you in bands and watching you grow, i can offically say, this is the first time i've ever seen you remotely try and holy bloody shit, it's confirmed, you're a robot, ORBS THAT FOOT CONTROL IS INSANE EVEN FOR YOU well done mate, well bloody done!
Dude, you are the REAL FUCKING DEAL. Love how much thought and prep you put into your youtube descriptions. It's clear that you really dive in on the material that you play on. This is next level stuff.
Never ceases to amaze me, Travis. Fucking outlandishly insane!! I would abssolutely love to see more 'fast metal' kind of playthroughs, very impressive footwork!
Thought I’d check in on Orbin as I hadn’t seen his videos for a bit. And… I remembered why I stopped watching in the first place. He’s an atomic clock android who’s skill I will NEVER match. Jesus, Travis… you’re insane.
I know these are drum mixes but I love how in the metal tunes the kick is so punchy it almost like compresses so hard it takes over. Especially in the “verse” section
After reading the description, its strange how life is ain't it. I lost my older sister in 2019. Grandma in 2021. It changes how you think about the world. At times when I would goof off I'm reminded to snap out of it because time is precious and I am here to get shit done, but sometimes depressive thoughts take over. I do not look forward to losing either of my parents.
Hey Travis. I wouldn’t stress too much about whether or not you’re equipped to play this style of music, because there are maybe ten other drummers in the world who could even come close to doing it this well. I would just be happy to find the room for growth after being on top of the underground drumming world for over a decade.
Many thanks! I was rather trying to convey that this took a butt-load of work for me, and in some respects a sense of empathy for what it takes to inhabit the role of such a player.
I was very sorry to read about the death of your father. You've made sporadic references to the impact he made upon you in your annotations over the years. He raised a boy with unwavering integrity, never kowtowing to the bullshit superficiality and glitziness of the music business. Great men (and great women) beget great men (and great women). So I guess we can glean a little of his character through you. Take care of yourself.
Watching this I fully get where Alex Rudinger got it from. It's like watching that part form dragon ball z where gohan and goku do the kamehameha together lmao
Despite this not being your forte, its incredible how good you sound playing this type of music. How do you keep your snare so consistent at every speed? You basically lose no volume during the blasts/rolls. Do you rimshot quieter so there's less discrepancy?
Now, whhhat da fff just happened?? I must've checked twice if I accidentally sped up the video. Those linear singles, wow. A robot. No, the drum android. No, Drumanoid.

I appreciate that, Joe!
I could not agree more!
Can't agree more, Travis is just a killer drummer and he's been like that since a long time. Post more please, Travis!

Why i always admired derek roddy.
Travis defintely kills it.
If only extreme metal drumming could sound more often like this, instead of the usual "quantize/sample fest". This guy is always the real deal, no matter which style he plays
I'm actually sad to say you're the most slept on drummer. You're seriously one of the greats.
This man got me into metal drumming when I was 14. Now 31
Pretty much same here
Same here. Im 30 btw.
Matt Garstka releases a new Animals as Leaders track today, which was amazing btw, and Travis steps up with a hold my beer epic level video.
Check out Travis in the new Haarp Machine stuff

I think this is the most impressive thing I’ve ever seen.
Dude, you of all people are equipped to handle this material. You’re at the very top of my list.
Jesus man. This guy is severely underrated
lol I’ve never seen somebody blast on a flat ride before
Travis dude. you gave me arthritis just by watching this.
out of all of the years i've been following you in bands and watching you grow, i can offically say, this is the first time i've ever seen you remotely try and holy bloody shit, it's confirmed, you're a robot, ORBS THAT FOOT CONTROL IS INSANE EVEN FOR YOU
well done mate, well bloody done!

Holy hell the boy put in WORK for this!

Just wow. Greatest drummer on YT and metal in general imo
Your open handed playing is outstanding.
Sick dude! That snare sounds massive.
This is all I've ever wanted Travis! Haha But now I want more!! So damn good
You’re awesome Travis. So glad you decided to do this. Heartbreaking to here about the vocalists parents tho…
Insane! Great composition and display of skill, always love your unique style.
Mind blown again. Thanks Travis.
Respect.
You are one of the very best out there, absolutely mesmerizing. What a dangerous and REAL drummer
I know these are drum mixes but I love how in the metal tunes the kick is so punchy it almost like compresses so hard it takes over. Especially in the “verse” section
You just don't get enough credit in the drum community, but it's coming.

My condolences.
@@TravisOrbin thanks Travis. My condolences to you too, and to the vocalist. Keep up the awesome drumming!
Man, the over-the-top, inhuman craziness of this rivals anything you’ve ever done imo. Absolutely ridiculous… Mind = blown!
That Gravity Blast you threw in there was so damn tasty.
💪
Honestly. I've followed you since your jz cover .I'm staggered. You are what we as drummers aspire to be. Is there anyways I could purchase a lesson?
Cheers! travisorbin.bigcartel.com/product/lessons
Sick as always
this should be 30 minutes long.hahaha.heck of a workout
Ok, nothing this guy can't do. Orbination!
Damn, that was some sick drumming! 🤘🤘

@@TravisOrbin I’d like to see anyone else play like this with marching sticks!
Holy shit…
Orbinator 💪🏻💪🏻
Nice performance! Amazing power :)
Sneaky cut at 2:00 too

Thật tuyệt vời chúc bạn nhiều sức khỏe
Dialed in at 230 like that for long duration, very sick
0:58-1:06 is fucking unreal levels of offbeat splitting. Holy shit.

Woah
Amazing man!
Inacreditável
Speechless. Incredible.
Incredible. Long time fan loving it here

Jesus christ that's some insane stuff.

Flawless.
Nice one, Travis Orbin Amazing man, killing it 🔥🔥🤘

Good god, man
the Machine doing what he does best... kicking ass. You need a sneaker endorsement because you just put about 100 miles on those babies!
hah!
Ooof.
Watching this I fully get where Alex Rudinger got it from. It's like watching that part form dragon ball z where gohan and goku do the kamehameha together lmao
The First!
Only you, Travis.
I'd love to hear a rendition at 300 bpms
What the fuck 😆👌🏻
Despite this not being your forte, its incredible how good you sound playing this type of music. How do you keep your snare so consistent at every speed? You basically lose no volume during the blasts/rolls. Do you rimshot quieter so there's less discrepancy?
No, I've always played from the wrist. Takes longer to develop since you're training larger muscle groups, but I think the payoff is greater.
@@TravisOrbin Definitely, sounds amazing. Guess I'm practising wrists for the next 6 months lol
What? Travis speed and versatile
Dope as fuk!!
I rarely ever see that china used by anyone and it sounds so crisp. What is it? Obviously a zildjian but what is it lol

Now, whhhat da fff just happened?? I must've checked twice if I accidentally sped up the video. Those linear singles, wow. A robot. No, the drum android. No, Drumanoid.
fucking amazing! Hate to ask but are you still doing shit with Darkest Hour? Love you guys together
Aye. Working on the next record.
@@TravisOrbin hell yeah. Can’t wait!
Herculean effort😟
First I thought, wow this dude must be working out - turns out its all from this song..

You must be joking...

Ugh. Your dexterity.
