Jake garland is one of the best drummers I've seen.

Can't wait for the album to come out!! I love you guys, Memphis May Fire is my favourite band and you're my favourite drummer!! Come to Australia please!!!! I LOVE YOU GUYS!

Memphis May Fire and Broadway are two of my favorite bands... One of the reasons why i like those two bands is because of the INSANE drumming... Keep it up Jake!

Nice work Jake, stoked for the album :)

But thank you everyone for the support! I'm going to have a few other drum videos made in the near future with a live recording of the drums, so those eager to hear that kind of sound can watch!

@jakegarland2 Dude you are a beast, and MMF is a very inspiring band. Very appreciative to see a band like you guys nowadays. Thanks for everything, and keep it up!

you are an amazing drummer! so dope brp. memphis may fire is my favorite band and i cant wait to hear your new album. so excited

If I enjoy a drum track this much (I've listened to it like 20 times now), I can't imagine how much I'll enjoy the album. Can't wait!

Jake, this is amazing and sounds SO freakin' powerful!! The last time I recorded there was when I tracked on a single called 'Fame Over Demise' when I was playing guitar for Woe Is Me. I'm seriously praying for the opportunity to track there again for a demo with my new upstart group at some point this year - #1 mark to be reached!! I just need to get a decent reference along with our ready-to-go pre-production for anyone who would be willing to hear it haha. It's certainly a toughie! :P

Your kit samples very well. Whoever engineered... Props!

One of my favorite drummers. His work in Broadway's first album and with MMF, as always, impeccable. You rock Jake!

Bro that breakdown at 2:48 sounded awesome! Can't wait to hear this with everything else included!

this sounds so sick cant wait for the song to come out

he has such a sick sound! his kit sounds so clean! perfect for this awesome genre of music....long live MMF!!!!

Even with the album out...I still keep coming back to this video. It's just too amazing...

Every drummer in every band should be required to make a video like this... period.

THAT Snaredrum! This one of my favorite drum videos ever.

Jake sounds awesome! I'm very excited for the new album.

That noise you are here is the kick with the tom hits my friend.

Thanks for your input captain!

dude, that snare is epic every time it's hit with the stick.. so add that up, and that's a lot of epicness bro!

thats the one thing that i love about jake garland, his playing is so clean, his powerfills the ones that you are referring to are so clean, i have been practicing power fills for about 2 years now i can play them but no where near as clean as jake. Thats one of the things that i really take as inspiration for his playing to keep practicing and make everything as solid and clean as he can. Sean

thanks for lookin out broseph

So anxious for the album to be finished and out already, this wait is gonna suck but be totally worth it!

pretty sick, one of my favorite bands, can't wait to hear the new shit.

You have redefined what is attractive in a musician.

This is amazing!

hes one of my favorite drummers!!!

Wow, that's sweet how you picked that out ahah, I never have yet xD Good ears!

can't wait for the song! *-*

spot on with the bass buddy keep rockin' ! \m/

Much love to the upcoming album. ♥

LOVE IT!! love the snare.

I think the mixing is appropriate. list like every other instrument or voice, they like to have their own personal mix. In metal core, this is appropriate because the drums need to cut through. if they were mixed like a rock band for instance, the mix would be very muddy. cymbals are rolled back to keep the drums standing out. its all a matter of what you're trying to get. eq wise, if not eq'd correctly, the drums will not sit in the mix, but rather on top or below. volume adjustments can't fix a bad eq mix. if you ask me, the drums are mixed nicely. good amount of reverb on the snare too.

looking forward to hear this track

Both of those drummers are phenomenal.

Dude I freaking love it! :D

his snare sounds so snappy and clean. i love it!

Clearly different/multiple visual takes over the final track. Honestly, can't wait. It sounds so dope.

That snare is sooo awesome!!!

No gate here the reverb is from the ROOM kontakt instrument. The snare for this sample pack contains a direct hit.nki and a room.nki, this has additional EQ to make the mix sound tighter though. (Native Kontakt Instrument) I bought it, and it sounds intense in a good mix.

that snare pops so nicely.

the kit sound amazing

Just from watching this, I already have a feeling their new album is going to be banginnnnnnnn

sounds so good

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS NEW ALBUM, CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!

My theory (as a sound engineer in training) is that what's used here are the edited snare, tom, floor tom, and kick drum tracks. And the cymbal sounds being so low is due to the cymbal tracks being muted and the cymbal sound is actually spilling into the active mics. Although, that snare is being run through some sort of outboard gear to give it that nice reverb.

Easily one of the most creative drummers in the scene. So much respect

You are very very technical & talented. Screw what people think about you. ♥

those toms sound beautiful

Also to everyone who digs the video, I just filmed 3 more (with the ACTUAL drum and room sound for those of you who I know would rather hear that) to a few songs of the new record, so stay tuned for them being released soon!

Fills or so smooth. Love it!

Beautiful.

The song is called "Losing Sight" the song will release when the album comes out

thank you quantitizing software for making him sound tight

Jake you´re BEAST!!

This is amazing drumming!! How can I find the Facebook post to share it on my wall . I'm a huge fan!

Respect. Thank you for clarifying.

Seems like I need to put this in the description..but to clear it up, the audio from this was sound replaced with one hit of each individual drum. It is still the sound of each drum, and still live room sounds. Nothing was mixed and was not the final drum track, just a quick play through! If you want 100% live audio go watch my drum video for "Prove Me Right" :) Also I use DW 8000 series longboard pedals. They don't make them anymore.

that snare sounds soooooooo gooood!!!!

I can't wait to use this audio as a backing track and make a cover when it's out., :D

I could just listen to him play drums all day

this is the song they showed as a teaser in the first studio update. i recognize the drums at the end.

It would absolutely terrify you at how many times I've played this video Jake~

Nicely done

Hey jake, huge fan, I was wondering about your live performances. I imagine you play to the click tracks when you guys are live. What sort of headphones do you use? I bought some $80.00 headset and I found that they weren't quite loud enough when I played live. I see you have a headset but do you use the ones that go in your ear when your on stage?

from 0:00 to 0:07 you have the intro right into the chorus until 0:20. a little breakdown followed by the first verse starting at 0:49 to 1:04. Then the chorus again until 1:21 then it's like the part in The Sinner (1:27 in the song) 1:47 we pick back up with a breakdown until 2:01 then a possible gang vocal part until 2:15 where it goes back to the chorus Then it's like in The Victim (2:43 in the song) from 2:28 to 2:49 followed by a breakdown until 3:03 followed by a transition, chorus & outro

His drums in the first studio update have the audio from the live room. In this video the audio has gone through a mixing board and a computer. so yeah, they sound different.

Help Me! I can't stop listening to everything Memphis May Fire!

How is his small tom set up? Is it connected to the cymbal stand or what? Its really close to the snare and I love that but I don't get how its being held.

I don't mind people disliking that the video has the drum track from the album over it.. But to iplaydrumsye don't act like you know your samples, I can guarantee that you don't have that drum sample.. All of the samples in the video are taken straight from each drum at the studio. That snare is 100% my snare! And it's actually a Truth bubinga wood/brass hybrid snare, not hand hammered brass! :)

By doing drum replacement, what do you do when it comes to cymbals? Replace them hit by hit?

I know how to do drum replacement (I did it on my bands whole album) but what do they do when it comes to cymbals? On "The Hollow" and other Chango's work, the cymbals are sampled. How do they do cymbal replacement?

agreed. hes amazing

Most of the bands' drummers that record at chango track the same as they sound on the recording songs, impressive that Jake just plays just exactly as how their songs sound.

Those toms sound fucking amazing.

im diggin this

triggers are simply a little pad that attaches to the snare head, bass head, tom head, etc... now what it does is go from that to a module for all the present triggers you have and when you hit that certain thing that is "triggered" it outputs a pre-made or user-made sound that distinctively sounds the same every time for a more tight and percussive sound like you just witnessed above... So if you want to sound like Def-leopard or Metallica, it is actually very possible... Hope this helped :-)

Hey man, what hi-hats, ride, and the china are you using? They look like the NRG series from TRX but I'm not sure.

Ah I see it now. Thanks!

No, that actually IS the Memphis May Fire official drum samples, released about 2 weeks ago. Source: Cameron Mizell.

this one video has so many cuts in it.

when does this song come out ! I NEED IT !

1:46 bom bom bom bombombom bombom bombombom bom bom :D

I love his form

What's the best way to memorize a bass drum pattern? I sometimes write the coolest bass drum parts, but then I can't remember them. How do you do it?

Why not the NRG 19" china? The sound of that is so beast :-P Also, what exact crashes are you using? Regards :)

Does anyone know how you would tune a snare to sound similar to that? I don`t want to use the samples he has online because I still want my own sound to.

Could you break down the fill you do at 2:47? I watched it at least twenty times. I can't wrap my mind around it. It's crazy awesome.

This is so fucking sick. Please do more good sir.

Hey guys! Thanks again for continuously checking the video out! Two extra things I just wanted to clarify..as I saw lots of comments about it.. is yes this obviously is not me actually tracking the drums, and is more of a play along to the drum track, and also.. when I made this video I accidentally tracked to a tempo a bit slower than the actual song was tracked to, so all the little edits you see are Sam just editing so the audio lines up and not me taking like 100 takes to film this haha :)

Perfect !!!

How do you get such a PERFECT SNARE SOUND?

Great ! What snare is Jake using ?

I'm already moshing just to these drums

Does anyone know what kind of snare along with sizes and how to make it sound so beefy?

Awesome!!!!

It doesn't look like they mic'd the cymbals up, but if they did they probably just lowered the volume on them so you can hear the drums more clearly.

sounds sick as hell

So is this drum track possibly part of any of the two songs fully released? AKA Vices or Prove Me Wrong?
