Holy shit, the dude is so good, he can’t even portray sloppy feet.

You forgot the “I bought the most expensive kit to play better” drummer lol

0:20 If that’s sloppy, I don’t even want to know what my double bass is called

"Can't play to a click" killed me. The way his tempo slowly phases out of sync was hilarious and too accurate.

That Ulrich roast. You even nailed his face!

1:40 that is classic Lars lore there.

"i don't play any fills at all" I wonder how many takes that took.

3:28 is pure gold 😂

2:13 As a drummer, this is INCREDIBLY hard to do.

I want to be at his level of “fail”!

“Loosen Up Buddy” takes me back to when I first started playing a kit. Started on a practice pad (as many do), but for some reason I just couldn’t loosen up my wrists on the kit 😂 made my entire body ache. Also, I think “Stick Breaker” should be on this list. I have broken many sticks while playing! Twice in front of people. First time, the guitarist (these were both Church settings so it wasn’t too intense I just got too excited) pointed to me and I saw the tip was gone so mid song I flipped it and kept playing. Second time, hit the Ride so damn hard that the tip hit me in the eye. Bassist laughed his butt off for the rest of the song. The congregation had no idea why I was playing with one eye closed 😂 sorry for the long comment

"Loosen up buddy!" Reminds me of Neil Peart. R.I.P. buddy.

dude this guys so good that he can barely even portray these things badly. he's just killing it

The “All feet, no hands” is mindblowing. The speed... 😱

"Loosen up buddy" is funny asf 😂😂

“Rimshots everything except blasts” I feel personally attacked 😂😂

1:43 Lol the lars reference

3:28 couldn't stop laughing at this part lol.

Great chops man. Absolutely beautiful kit too. I played for years and haven't sat on a thrown for almost a decade; just getting back into it. This was great motivation. Superb playing my man.

"all feet ,no hands" was he really playing that holy shit

i only play Portnoy fills lol

Lets face it, all feet no hands was fuckin sick.

Unbelievable double base. Nice stick drop at 4:09 ^^ - Great Video!

let's be real, we've all had the "I only play Portnoy fills" fail at least a million times in our careers

That's not inconsistent tempo, he's just auditioning for dream theater

And here's me, a drummer, wishing I could play the way he portrays his "fails" lmao

I dunno why KZfaq decided to put you into my feed this morning but I'm glad they did. New sub here, you're a fantastic drummer and very entertaining to listen to. Ironically enough the "Twitch Raid Gone Wrong" video was the first thing I saw of you before checking out these other awesome videos you have. LOL - you rock dude!

I love the stick landing perfectly in frame during the stick dropper.

That click-drumming damaged my brain..

This is like a huge paradox. You wanted to show some fails but still you play so good. So you failed at failing but still managed to make a fail video, even when you failed in the first place.

You never fail to crack me up Samus! You da man!

awesome muppet show imitation at the end man :D Ive just started drumming, at old age, 40+, and got so much inspiration from your videos !

I do all 14 of these

I liked the "loosen up, buddy guy"...We all faced that phase..

dude, you're awesome! Started barely 5 months ago but already can relate to this :'D awesome video!

So today I talked to Mike at Drumnetics. My order is in for the standard double. How cool to be the first on my block, awesome.. We talked for a bit , I congratulated him for his creations. Mike seems like a great guy and I for one am glad it was someone like him who's been involved with music and giving lessons throughout his life. Now he will get in return. Great job Mike!!!!!

"Loosen up, buddy!" was literally me when I started playing blast beats

Don’t forget my personal favorite, the missed rimshot...

Dude, this was hilarious! I actually laughed out loud on three of these. Thank you for this.

This is so on point. So true. Love the vid - this nails momo drummer fails perfectly

beats that makes no sence. famous lars scene

you have to be guilty of at least 3 of these to call yourself a drummer

I am guilty of speeding up the tempo during fills among other things, but Ive only played for a year and a bit. Thanks for the heads up, Im constantly trying to figure out what I suck at and then improve it.

Never in my life have I need something more than this. HAHAHA!! Subbed n belled!

I'm gonna need a full "All feet no hands" song plz

I cringed so hard during the "can't play with click" scene.

0:51 that happens to all of us sometimes. Where you feel like the metronome either sped up or slowed down when it feels like you’re in the right tempo

the fact that you are able to imitate all of these is the most impressive part of this video. That being said. All of these are a thing, and unfortunately i think us drummers all see a little of ourselves in this video hahaha.

1:41 Lars Ulrich.... In Some Kind Of Monster.

Oh man Loosen up buddy had me in tears.

That was awsome! amazing drummer! The "loosen up buddy" is the funniest one haha looks like he's about to pass out lol That was me when I started to play drums for sure.

I know you played Jason Bittners solo during the click track part from that drum festival back in 2005 lol I recognized it instantly

I only play Portnoy fills is me fiddling with a drum program as a guitarist lol

I love that lars reference hahahahaha

this was super insightful and hilarious !!

i don‘t even want to imagine what is going on down there with his feet

i only play portnoy fills hit way too close to home

Shout out to the stick that held on to the drums at the end

0:48 this is mildly infuriating.

Lolz. It's funny cos it's true. Mate we met once, about 15 yrs ago at an Abigail Williams concert in Wolverhampton, England. You left them shortly after that, but it's clearly done you no harm. You're an absolutely phenomenol drummer - the "Common Fails" videos show you can adopt many styles, and that is a rare talent. Plus you have a sense of humour. 5 stars for being epic.

this has to be hard to do. like incredibly hard to play...wrong

I need a 10 hours version of Loosen up, buddy! Hahahahaaaahhaha

Every few weeks, I switch which one of these I think is the funniest... today I'm zoning in on "the tapper" - hysterical.

Good vid these are on point! 💯

"Loosen up buddy" LMAO. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Dat lars reference was pretty funny :D

Speeding up the fills ist something that you can experience always and everywhere.

0:48 is actually hard to do. It’s kinda like a polyrhythm

4:10 omg that stick placement xD

the tapper is actually a super sick drum line

2:20 My Jazz Band drummers can relate to this, well at least 2 of them.

I'm crying. This is excellent

This is so funny, I've been a drummer for close to 40 years now, I remember making most of these mistakes even after 3 years of playing.

1:26 Aaron Kitcher, i- i-is it you?

Best one so far from u, man🤣

Man you're so good, I laughed a lot =)

I never knew Weird Al was so sick at the drums ;) lol awesome video

Hate to admit it but "beats that don't make sense" definitely reminded me of Lars as well. XD Still love the guy though.

The swing he has on those sticks is just godly and amazing.

Tremendo el video 🤘🤘!!! Me he descojonado con el final!!! 😂😂😂

The Tapper actually works pretty well for Black Metal. If it's grindcore or noisecore I want the drummer going nuts on those blasts, but for BM I want it to sorta fade back and be atmospheric.

0:49 That Jason Bittner leak tho, haha!

the man bun and then the loosen up, buddy! right after had me in stiches fair play 😂

Still love this. Still wish I could do any of these fails.

0:18 Rain-Trivium🤘

I may very well be some variation of most of these. I’ve actually hit myself in the face with my sticks when lost them...I silently told myself that I probably deserved that, lol.

That must be so hard to do! Good job on that one!

I love the st anger drumming reference lmao

“Loosen up buddy”....Bahaha! That one just warmed my heart.

ALL OF THIS GAVE ME ANXIETY

I'm a lot of those 🤦‍♂️. But this video is epic! The skill is amazing!

@1:50 Lars?

2:30 ThaT'S whAt sHE sAid

guilty of sloppy feet.... i try!!

The "can't play to a click" section is a torture. Well done ! :D

I know it's more difficult to play like an idiot, but being a real kickass drummer. Great man! 🤘😝

I love how half the comment section is yet again filled with lars-bashing comments.

I started laughing non stop from “Loosen up, buddy!” Till’ end. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Tbh, in my guitar experience, it was harder to convincingly play badly on purpose than to actually progress at a normal speed. Like once you know how to play something well and at speed and have been playing it that way for a long time, it becomes that much harder to deconstruct

the stick dropping reminds me of when I saw Ackerckocke live after thinking the drummer was so amazing on the album. haha .sorry had to make 2 comments cause its such a good video (and I have played drums for yrs and love extreme metal)
