Playing like they double-parked their tour bus.
I’m weak asf🤣🤣
Lmfao! Best comment award goes to you 🏆
Hahahahaha, it took me a while, but then almost died😂😂
The time only seems weird now cuz they are older and not jumping around like lunatics. If you go watch their 90's performances it's almost identical, but they are running around the stage the whole time.
lol
No Disrespect to Matt Cameron he is a legendary drummer no doubt but PJ fcked up the day they fired Dave Abbruzzese hands down the Best fit and Best Drummer for Pearl Jam he basically brought the JAM to Pearl Jam like The Reignman Shawn Kemp brought SUPER to the Sonics when Shawn Kemp left the Sonics it wasnt the same sure they were still Seattle Sonics just not Supersonics no more explosive alley hoops no more thunderous Tomahawk Jam no more X Factor
One of the most consistent haircuts in rock drumming
Holy balls that's brilliant...
*A1 commenting sir*
Funny. My hair is always in the same exact place when I get done playing . Never worry about it anyway
Love it
Larry Mullen Jr. agrees.
jesus drumming away our sins, explain this atheist
It's incredible not to think of Dave A in this song... Dave looked like he had 4 arms while drumming. Matt plays it just to quiet and double the speed 😖
Waaaaay too fast. Playing it at this speed completely ruins the groove and swagger that Krusen/Abruzzese put on it way back when. It's like they've played it so many times in the last 30 years that they don't even like it, but they know it's a crowd favorite, so they play it faster to get it over with.....
I wish we could see this perspective on Soundgarden's Jesus Christ Pose.
Kelli Thomerson how about ticks and leeches by tool
Or Like Suicide
Dave's the best.
@@brandtt9263 Matt Cameron playing Ticks and Leeches? Lol
Undoubtedly Matt is extremely technically competent... But I still prefer Abbruzzese......
Spread of about 5 bpm. Timekeeper…?
Way too fast and mechanical. Don't know why they would showcase this song for Cameron. Comments are mostly we love Cameron w/ Soundgarden but not Pearl Jam. Abbruzzese was the best drummer PJ ever had and this video proves it.
This song loses so much of what I love about it when played this fast.
vahnn0 I agree. Matt's a great drummer but his speeding up many of the songs takes away from some of the experience.
I agree, great musicianship all round but prefer the tempo down a bit with more groove.
They play every night sets of +25-28 songs. This is the only way to be able to do that.
I used to wonder if I was the only one who thinks they play Even Flow too fast live. Loses the groove that he studio version of the song was famous for.
Just press ctrl + shift + j on chrome and paste this in and press enter.

Problem solved.
テンポ速すぎだな！
やはりパール・ジャムはデイブアブルシーズが良かったな！デイブいたときのパール・ジャムが一番好き！
ジョシュフリーズもパール・ジャムに合うはず！
nice but Dave Abrussezze is the man.
Not quite my tempo !
A midi drum machine from the 80’s plays the drums with more passion and swing than Matt Cameron.
not quite my tempo
The speed here and the feel really bothered me tbh but hey to each his own. And with THAT being said..
NOT MY FUCKING TEMPO!!
Haha
*vedder throws chair at cameron*
Rushing or.....
LoL
in YT settings use speed 0.85 (quite My tempo lol)
Technique, groove, rudiments, are what all professional drummers have. But sound is unique, that's why I praise him
Yep, sound is in the hands. ✌️
I hope you don't praise his horrible rushing and terrible grasp on tempo and feel....
@@incubrianyou’re saying this about the Jesus Christ pose drummer btw
@@incubrian I've really been working with metrone lately and I notice the band started pulling him faster on the guitar solo and he didn't hold them back. So the chorus at the end of the song is definitely faster than the first chorus. Matt Cameron is solid as a rock but also kinda boring as a rock to me. I do love his drumming in soundgarden some real cool stuff he played with them.
Dave Abbruzzese was far better...
1:00 when he hits that crash I feel it on my forehead
😂😂😂
😂
Man slow down a bit
Matt Cameron probably plays the song at the exact bpm's the guys in the band ask him to play it. Those things are settled well before the gig, so I think it's not Matt's fault but Eddie/Mike asking.
It's not about the bpm but Matt just doesn't have that 'swing' feel or should I say 'funk' feel where Pearl Jam were big because of that style. It is called 'JAM' for reason though. Now when Matt behind the drum PJ sound like KISS. Like 70's rock band. I'm not saying he's a bad drummer, he just doesn't blend with the band. It's like Larry Carlton with Fourplay. The fans loved Lee Ritenour as so the old PJ fans love Dave A. Dave A can fill what empty space in the PJ song. Just listen to this Even Flow version, it felt stiff and cold not funk as like they played long a go with Dave A.
you could be right on that one! .. all in preference i guess
Hey Tribe... just to note. They're all different players than what they were 25 years ago. It is faster than the recorded version. And at a certain point, swing changes with tempo... different feel.
they're probably so fucking bored of playing this song that they get creative by changing things to avoid killing themselves.
And a whole lot o COCAINE ❄️❄️❄️🥴 lol!!! I kid I kid !!!
It’s a shame PJ doesn’t do more of what Matt’s strength is IMO...odd time grooves...he churned out amazing odd time grooves with Soundgarden
The “odd” time signature of Soundgarden is partly what made me fall in love with them. They’re so groovy. I was involved in some concert and marching percussion through high school and college, so I thought Soundgardens music was such a breath of fresh air from your standard 4/4 rock songs. Absolutely amazing
Basically all songs Matt writes on guitar have odd playing styles like evacuation and the fixer
It's kinda hard when your lead singer is dead
@@dakotajensen181 What he meant was that he wishes Pearl Jam could make more songs in the style that Matt Cameron was able to do in Soundgarden this had nothing to do with him going back
Matt was a beast in Soundgarden. The more odd the time signature the better.
Living the life, drummer for Soundgarden and Pearl Jam.
This man is practically the foundation for grunge rock drumming.....quite the title
Incoming Dave Grohl comments
he's the best
@@MrSps666 hes amazing but dont forget our beloved sean kinney
@@timmynator8036 or eric kertz
Even Eddie Vedder is struggling to keep up with this tempo with his singing. Awful performance - you're not playing Rusty Cage now mate. Get yourself a click track like everyone else
Click tracks are for soulless robotic drummers who have no rhythm or groove. Also, let's hear you do better, douche.
@@dmitryowens Yeah, drummers like Matt Cameron. I don't need to be a professor of Meteorology to tell you that it's raining outside do I?
@@acidbass
No, but if you're going to try to act like you're knowledgeable about drumming and talk about click tracks, etc, then you damn well better actually know how to play drums - otherwise you're just talking out of your ass, but that's already glaringly obvious.
Also, I've never heard any drummer say anything other than good things about Matt Cameron, so you're definitely in the minority there, and you're definitely a raging imbecile who knows nothing about drumming or music in general.
@@acidbass you realize they’re all okay with speeding up the song they’ve played a million times right?
@@roni6135 To the point where Eddie can't even sing in time because it's too fast! They are entertainers and even the die hard fans only hear that song live once every 2 years or less, it's just selfish to ruin it because they are bored of the original tempo
Matt is great, rock solid, talented, but for Even Flow my heart still beat with Dave Abruzzese.......
the best
Completely agree. Those plates need some loving too... What's the rush?! Perfect drummer for Soungarden though... Love this guy, really do, but please bring Dave back for these songs....
Dave Krusen played on the record
I'm with you. I'll even deeper: respect all the way, but can't understand the fuzz about Matt. At least when playing this old stuff, I think he slaughters everything with this up tempo, it loses all the depth and feeling.
Dave is a jazz drummer now. I saw him at the Blue note in LA. Greg Bissonette did a great job teaching him and his had swing, not to be found in this version.
One of the last active badasses of that era of amazing rock drumming. One of the all time greats!
Did he play a vey light vintage Ludwig Jazz Festival snare drum!!??
MC did some great stuff with Soundgarden but NO ONE can play evenflow like Dave Abbruzzese. PJ’s best drummer by far.
While Dave was great, Dave K had impeccable taste and groove.
Agreed - sucks that they chose to shit all over him.
MC has zero groove. Zero. Just straight forward slamming. PJ should have kept Dave Abbruzzese. MC was THE drummer for SoundGarden and he should be in a band that highlights his ability to shift time in odd meters. Listen to this song. It's so F-ing fast. No feel whatsoever.
He ruined the band. I love him Soundgarden but man, he dumbed down the bands older songs with his drumming
Gotta admit though, for as fast as this tempo went, Matt's deep in the pocket with flawless fills.
Yeah ikr. Idk why matt gets so much hate. Dave was amazing, but so is matt, they're just different styles of playing
@@zacharyray7166 Yes, its flying - Eddie can barely keep up. he must have a CLICK. Hmmm?
Tempo is off and on
@@zacharyray7166 Matt is way better than Dave any day of the week. And the song is much better fast. 😮
@@poohead8022 The OG Dave that played this on TEN killed it and the live versions just had a better energy .. it was funky, those 16th rolls on the hi hat are sick go back and listen.. this feels rushed and constipated
It’s like a bad cover version
It’s why Dave Abbruzzesse will always be best
Ironically the faster tempo makes the song not have an even flow
99% of the comments: not quite my tempo
WTF.......are we in a Nascar race? Why make the song SUCK? One would think a drummer would know the tempo. This one sucks..........Dave Abbruzzese! They never should have let him go, he was and is the best drummer they had.
So many great drummers among those 90s alternative rock bands: Cameron, Grohl, Kinney, Chamberlin, Abbruzzese. The list goes on.
Sean Kinney
I'm so glad someone mentioned Sean Kinney, he's so underrated
@Keegan Dunphy
What band?
@@shanesawyer5103 He's the drummer for Alice in Chains
Keegan Dunphy
Oh yeah, he was great. My favorite 90’s drummer is either Jimmy Chamberlin or Matt Cameron (for Soundgarden, not PJ) but there were a lot of great 90’s rock drummers.
Matt Cameron is a great drummer no doubt. However, I have always preferred Abbruzzese with PJ.
He just had a great groove and unique style with his hi hat and splash cymbal accents.
Both excellent drummers, both very different.
Abbruzzese for PJ!
Cameron for Soundgarden!
@@joandrumz3176 Indeed! You reading this Eddie? You fucked up by firing Dave 30 years ago and now your band sucks. Time to swallow your pride and pick up the phone.
@@joandrumz3176 Agree 100%.
YES! AGREE 💯 Love Cameron too, but Dave was a great match. Sucks he couldn’t stick around longer in PJ
I couldn't agree more! I think the exact same thing!
Far too fast, lost all groove.
Unless you play live, you wouldn't understand. Album recordings and live are a different animal. You'd put people to sleep if that was the case.
you're going too fast...
Dave Abruzzesse killed on the re recording of the 10 album. His version of even flow is by far better
sorry to disappoint you it wasn't dave who recorded ten, but his live performances of those songs were far better than matt's
Sorry Matt.. but we all here know who made this song sound like it supposed to...
www.youtube.com/@FreeAssRecords
^ this man DROVE PJ as no other!
Yeah I’m sure the guy who’s played for two of the biggest grunge bands and has won two Grammys is gonna listen to some annoying dipshit on TH-cam
2:48 i know the video is about the drummer but is it just me or does that solo sound like an f1 car 😂
Holy shit! Totally a F1 car!
I sense you are English
Making a wrong turn
Ahh the V8
Yeah, V8 era
Dave Abbruzzese is the only drummer who can play these songs.
Yall sound like brats lol
Dave abruzuze
Most like Even Flow with Dave Abbruzzese, Matt Cameron doesn't sound good for old Pearl Jam songs.
Dave Abbruzzese drove pj during what I consider their best albums. Matts good but Dave had that something that for me made it
You are so bad my friend
You are a begginner PJ fan
@@adannalaz9494 go f*** yourself
Yes Dave let the songs breath Matt is a great drummer but speeds all there classics up to fast.
@@okalright8980 the Band prefer speed up theirs songs. Is not a Matt decision.
Please understand
@@adannalaz9494 ok makes since now thanks 👍
On a positive note, I love the sound of his drums, especially the toms.
The cymbals sound pretty good too
facts, i really think the wooden hoops work wonders
A ray ayotte era ( 1992 to 1998 ) ayotte customs made by hand in BC canada. Very sought after drums these days as Ayotte Drums are a shell ( hehe ) of what they used to be quality wise. My dream kit.
@@metube3489 Those are Yamahas dude. Matt is endorsed by Yamaha and Zildjian.
@@poopguy6208 never done that but I don't doubt it at all. They sound fantastic. Might have to get that on my new kit
Eddie seems to be having a tough time with this tempo.
Because the other guys are going to fast
I think he does it on purpose to change the song a bit, heard it before
Well I like when he stop and do 2 counts in the hi-hats and let them band go foward, he also waited for the singer to connected towards the end. This song has that feeling even in the Record of falling little behind.
Eddie has mentioned that the song sounds better faster....has more energy. So, no...he doesn't have trouble singing it at this tempo.
@@pbaker7160 clearly he is having some trouble. His timing is off. Perhaps this was an early attempt at speeding up the tempo. However, it's obvious he is having some difficulty.
The best Soundgarden Drummer EVER.
No groove... no life bros :(
Fuck the haters, man. This guy didn't miss a single beat and his chops are great
Amazing drummer but the best drummer Pearl Jam ever had was Dave Abruzzese...without a doubt....
It's a toss up for me. I think they're both great.
@@artturnerjr they both are indeed...
I agree..ol Dave had the chops but now matt is my #1 along with Danny
Is your name a combination of Mudvayne and Nirvana?
@@leviathan3630 more like MUDhoney and nirVANA
Great drummer for Soundgarden. Abbruzzese is the Pearl Jam drummer.
Abruzze’s version is better &’Matt is one of my all time favorite drummers & I play so..
Bring back Abruzzese, at least for Even Flow
Matt is a incredible drumer, but I prefer Dave Abbruzzese on this song...
I'm not sure if I really prefer DA... but I do notice when MC deviates from the album version (Dave Kruzen), which is where I do miss DA, since his style was closer to DK's. But then again, Matt is all about no-glam and just straight up heavy hitting so I'm actually good with it!
But on the topic of DA... I'm still pissed about him being shut out by the RRHoF. Such a bunch of !@#$.
While I agree that DK and DA gave the song that groove that really took it to where it needed to go, Matt WAS the original drummer on this track: th-cam.com/video/Qc-A78_ZzGc/w-d-xo.html
However, Matt was born to be in Soundgarden. No doubt about it.
100% agree. His drumming style added something special to their music that hasn't been replicated since he was kicked out. Every drummer that has been a part of Pearl Jam has been great and Matt Cameron is one of my top 5 favorite drummers of all time but still not bringing what Dave brought.
Sammy G what's your problem, dude? There IS a difference. 🤦♂️
I have to agree with some of the comments here. When I listen to this guy it's like seeing black and white, great but black and white picture. When I listen to the drumming from the studio recording it's like I'm riding and swaying on the fucking rainbow of groove, dynamics and even the pure sound of the drum parts.
The studio recording nuances/subtleties can't be duplicated live, and it's too slow for a live show. Two choices, play it studio tempo and put people to sleep, or speed it up to add energy and keep people rockin'
Been reading some of the posts around the tempo and thought to weigh in. I've got about 30 years of experience playing drums both in live and studio gigs and experienced both sides of the situation. Sometimes a band will opt to play a song faster simply because it sounds (and feels) better in a live situation than at the original tempo is was recorded. We've also slowed songs down when played live to get a heavier feel as opposed to the original recorded tempo. I fully agree that "in the heat of the moment", tempos can and do get pushed (I'm certainly guilty of this in my gigs at times) but Matt is a seasoned pro; this is no doubt a conscious effort on the band's part to push the tempo. It's actually nice to see they have the freedom to do this since they aren't locked into a click track or sequencer for this song and just playing "live"! It's a good discussion though!
Also a seasoned drummer and 100% agree....Matt is as Professional as it gets!
They do it in a lot of the songs,i think it also depends on the energy in the room..
Crazy coincidence but he played Soundgarden songs at faster tempos live also. Especially “Black Hole Sun” being such a back beat, lazy feeling song, speeding it up really ruined it for me.
William Fotiou for sure. Just strange. Some songs sound good a little pepped up live. Not “Black Hole Sun” though. The songs identity lives within the sludgy tempo.
damn bro. thats crazy but i do t remeber asking
The large K custom hybrid crash Matt uses on his right side is one of my favorite cymbals of all time. I have mine paired up with a 17” k dark on the left and the pair are just 🤤. Add a 21” k custom ride into the mix and you’re ready to take over the universe.
What ride cymbal is that ?
Love Matt’s sound - my favorite PJ drummer though is still Dave…Krusen. Ha.
Where’s the fire? Geez, got somewhere too be? The heaviness of the track is lost at this tempo.
Big fan of Matt in Soundgarden but Dave Abbruzzese made this groove with fills and cymbal accents that it’s hard to un-hear when anyone else plays it. Feels like something is missing now…
Dave did it better.
Always felt like when watching Matt play in PJ, he kind looks like he wants to play in his Soundgarden style of drumming. Which obviously doesn’t work with Pearl Jam. His influences if I remember right in the rock genre revolve around people like Peter Criss, so really his feel of playing more straight forward rock songs like in PJ is probably more of a straight, fast nature, rather than a more Groovier style like Dave A
Does he not have in-ears in? Wtf lmao How is he not deaf?! #Legend
Dave abruzzese was the best drummer for pj in my mind. No offense to Cameron, he’s awesome.
Dave was the best drummer they had, and also a great drummer period!
After 21 years I'd say Matt has the gig and ain't going anywhere! He fits perfectly.
Damn... I love Matt in Soundgarden and Temple of the Dog but he just sucks in Pearl Jam. They need a funky/rock drummer to bring out the best in PJ.
I have been lucky to see this kit master in both Soundgarden and Pearl Jam. Rock solid drummer!
Abruzze 1000x melhor
I will prefaces this with an apology, Sorry, I love Matt's drumming, although to me and my guitar laden ear he is wayyyy better in Soundgarden. and Dave A. the GROVE Master is the proper fit for P.J.
This is an insult to all drummers that played this song from the start of PJ. Cameron should just be banned from playing this song! Anyway , what you guys where thinking in ViC Firth when choosing a song to represent THIS drummer ??? please change it to something he created like "Insignificance" or anything that HE created & NOT someone else's drumming ,played so badly... Jesus man...This is the pits...
lol shut the fuck up you fucking idiot. You're one of those who lives in the past. He is a tremendous drummer and it's not his fault they sped up the song. Grow the fuck up your "precious" song is not ruined pussy.
Matt in Sondgarden is godly, but with Pearl Jam he doesn't have that same effect, still one of my favorite drummers.
for me , like suicide song is the best drums ever ...
Pearl Jam is pretty straight forward rock. For me, that gets old as a drummer after a while.
eddies timing just sucks fucking ass
Totally agree. Matt was suited perfectly for soundgarden, his ride work was incredible. But for the first pj album I really prefer Dave’s drumming. He was a fucking rock star
mrpicky510 you do realise Dave A didn't play on the first record, it was Dave Krusen.
Some bands like playing songs faster live. Happens all the time. Highly doubt it's his fault
Dave Abbruzzese would kill this song back in the heyday of Pearl Jam. In my opinion they were a much better band with Dave !
I do like Matt Cameron, but his drumming just doesn't fit Pearl Jam's sound. Wish they could make up with Dave Abruzzesse.
Feel like he has to hold back so much with PJ compared to the crazy drumming of soundgarden
One of the most consistent drummers out there......and with the best tone. Great player
lmao
Yes yes yes to rushed !! You miss a lot of the facets of the song . Still love Matt !!!!
While Matt might have been more “creative” in Soundgarden, he’s still a drum god. Consistent power with every hit.
I love Cameron... But... I miss Abbruzzese on PJ so much... :/
I never liked him and never will. His tempo is so fast, he ruins the songs he plays. I don't like his rudiments either 👎
Abruzzese is still much better too bad it's not in the band anymore, he is infinitely more technical than Matt, in this version the music is very straight, without the ghost notes and the swing
I think Cameron got more out his drumming with Soundgarden but this is very good nonetheless. A powerful drummer. My favorite drummers with Pearl Jam was more jazzy drummers like Matt Chamberlain and Dave Abbruzzese though.
Thanks for the love 💕
Cool
Should we comment on how great Eddie still sounds!?!?
This is what I've been waiting for! Been into SG since the beginning, Matt is the finest modern rock drummer out there....wish there was more content of him doing his thing..so much to be learned from him. Thanks guys.
Chris Infusino every one always compared me to him check out some of my low Budget basement drum covers if your bored enough
É um excelente baterista....mas Dave Abbruzzese era foda demais....muita técnica...parecia que os pulsos eram quebrados...lembro no acústico MTV....tirou uma onda.....viva o grunge...viva os anos 90
Dave Abbruzzese el rey 👑👑👑
Wow. Tony Hawk is a great drummer
Lmao
Literally looks nothing like him.
I think more Matt Ryan lol
hurry up guys...Eddie's got tickets for the Lakers game....
lol came here just for the dave abbruzzese love xD
there's some songs you don't just play in your own style, you learn the style of the guy who came before you who absolutely KILLED it
just my opinion
Matt always plays tunes a faster tempo live.
Similar to Stewart Copeland.
I hate how man has sped up everything from the old drummers.
The consensus is Dave A. was a better fit for PJ, but they're not the same band they were back then. Just listen to Dark Matter, yeah they're still out there doing it, but definitely lack the creativity and energy of their prime. I will say Matt Cameron is one of my favorite drummers. Whether he's as good as Abbruzzese is subjective. Take a listen to the bridge parts in Black Hole Sun, especially in live performances. The syncopation, the creativity. His work with Soundgarden was incredible. They're both fantastic drummers.
Such a wasted opportunity to play the song the way Dave Abbruzzese did it. And play it way too fast to boot. Huge disappointment.
Dude, I’m a guitar player who plays other people’s drums from time to time when they’re left at my house. That’s my relationship to drums and even I know Matt Cameron is unbelievable. Wonderful precision without losing any feel. There’s a lot of Soundgarden songs where he’s doing some pretty tricky things too, always tastefully though. If I had to pick one drummer to build my own super group with I believe it would be MC.
the guy's a complete animal.
I only know Abruzzese version....
Dave Krusen played on the first Pearl Jam album
@@PTBCANADIAN lmao, well said
I know Professor!!! than I know only the live version of Abruzzese.... the best drummer of PJ
@@PTBCANADIAN really!!! ahhhh
Bien por Matt pero prefiero al gran Dave Abruzzese 😅
Love you Matt. Really do, specially on Soundgarden. But what's the rush?! Bring Dave back please. Those plates need some loving too... ❤
Love Matt Cameron but I prefer Jack Irons drum tone/sound/style in no Code/Yield to any
the sound of the song become no grooves, just flat even he does more cymbals
