I am not a drummer, just a lover of music and have watched everyone in this drumeo first time series because it is fascinating.
This man... Just did one of the most impressive things I have ever witnessed another human do.
Everyone who comes on this channel puts on a clinic. Aaron Comess just performed surgery.
Amazed.

Some parts were still highly "unorthodox", but much more worked than I initially thought it would

Pretty sure most people were like mehhhhh ... from the intro and then 🔥🔥🔥 what a surprise it was ! Cant imagine what it would have been after a day of practice ! Some people here in the comment tends to forget it was first take after not even an hour of creating it.

@murilo_camargo5674A7X in traditional grip ❤
@intima.kreativaI say this very lovingly: what a nerd! This is definitely up there with my favourite first listens
@PaperBoatTVWow! Just amazingly clean for a final first take, I am a big fan of A7X, hats off to you Sir
@deadtune3965Omg this is insanely good! The Rev would have absolutely loved this 🔥
@Buckers2202He just nailed it on the first take! 👍
@chrismuc4023At 9:40 The Rev be like hold my Beer, let me get behind the drums
@rajsinghshekhawat6045He shook that one out exactly like a seasoned session drummer would.
@herrgrauWla na matanda kna umuwi kna layo ng tunog eh 😆
@ChristainAlar-g6dF*ck hell yeah. That was IMPRESSIVE!
@AseGarciagenius
@kiko25204Dang dude nailed it. He's a underrated player in the drum world
@justinreynolds3935So tight
@armistice212The slower tempo of the drums really made the bass stand out more than usual. Good stuff.
@Zakofidea9:28 gave me absolute chills.
I think Rev would approve 💜
The transition to the solo was so clean 🔥
@akjackson009This is literally Tom Segura from another part of the multiverse where he became a drummer instead of a stand up comedian 😅
@marchunziker1051This guy rules!
@VaL-oy1ktHe is NAILING it. 10:44
@bigdude102Illegal
@emaxdrum4580It always surprises me they don't know the most famous tracks lol.
@DukeKeshaI’m sitting here waiting for you to hit someone with Sunn O))) or some "true kvlt" black metal with double-bass drums running through the whole track as an April Fools' joke.
@ЕвтодийНоровскихFor me, the best one yet.
@glennbignellAnd this sas the first take ????
Ok.. No more spin doctors but spin PROFESSOR 😱😱😱😱😱
That was fkn amazing, man!
@MaDCaTMaNI've never heard this song before so it's kinda a fun thinking along,
@WutipongWongsakuldejWow 😮❤
@billyquade7098Fuuuuck! T h e b e s t e v e r !
@slavisajelenkovic7398Dude step up, aim for the fence, knock it out of the park😎
@christopherlee1962I dont understand everyones sentiment. He IS a pro but he is playing a very simple song. A7x sucks balls so imo its not surprising someone with any skill can elevate this "song". Listen to spin doctors bules album for me before you comment.
@adamnash7908the second time I hear some good drumming from him, the other was two princes. I like this one
