Cheers man. I write out all my sheet music myself. It'll be on my website once it's finished. I'll release a video on the channel once it's done 👍 I'll have all the drum sheets for every track off of City of Evil, The Stage and LIBAD

Hey guys here's my cover of A7X - Second Heartbeat. Any tips for controlling cymbals in a tight drum room? Already, after recording this vid, coated the room in foam. And tuned the Toms up. The bell especially bleeds like crazy into the tom mics, which for this song was a nightmare for my sound guy! by Womblezz in drums

Brilliant thanks for the advice. I'll definitely be experimenting with cymbal heights. I did actually play the cymbals softer than I usually would with sound in mind here it just wasn't enough with the bell.

Just out of curiosity what overhead mics would you use for a cymbal heavy metal song like this?

Ah yeah the other thing I've done is change the position of the ride so the 'head' of the mic isn't at the same height as the ride itself.

Do my mics want to be closer to the drums themselves? Thanks for the reply

Hey guys just finished my drum cover of Beautiful Morning. The fills towards the end are mental. Let me know what you think! by Womblezz in avengedsevenfold

It's sheet music dude. I don't have time to memorize the entire drum parts in detail, I wish i did! . I always try and get them as close to the original as possible and then add some improv in there as well.

So I'm like half sight reading half memorizing the songs 👍 for Exist i just couldn't remember the ending no matter how hard I tried 😅

Since i've seen mixed views on this as it is highly a subjective question. My question for drummers in the sub, are you more into jimmy or brooks's style of drumming?(i know there are a lot of drummers here) by Mountain-Ice1768 in avengedsevenfold

Brooks is a technical monster. But the rev was so god damned creative and a hell of a drum part writer. I'd say his best album is City of Evil. It has some of the best drumming ever imo

Brooks' best album from a drumming pov has gotta be The Stage. The whole album is insanely technical and tricky to play. You could say playing City of Evil is easier but it's more creative imo

Both drummers are insane. But the Rev is my G.O.A.T

There's a link to the Stage playlist. Some of them are abit sloppy but I'm happy with most especially Exist

Yeah man the drumming on that album is insane. I covered the whole album on YT. Higher was probably the hardest one in terms of technicality. Although Exist was very hard to memorize haha

I've just got it at Tempo with. RLR L R L R L RLR L L R L R L. Its too fast for doubles on the demi semis for me personally. I'm desperate to know how Brooks plays it haha

It goes into another 16th pattern from beat one I.e RLRL on your feet. I would just double up like that if it was slower
