I think being put in front of a drum kit and being asked "learn this Sleep Token song the fastest as possible" is probably one of the things that would terrify me the most ! Good Job Chris !

[TwoandaHater]

He is a monster player. I love that he knew all the songs they attempted to give him- what a cool bonus win for him!

[beekman]

You know you have an awesome drum channel when even non-drummers tune in. This entire series is fantastic.

[Logpet]

The humility it takes to go on camera and learn something and not be perfect is commendable. Well done, Chris!

[WishMount]

II is a master of filling up literally every single empty space with something, without making it crowded at all... something I think a lot of musicians struggle to do. It's actually quite freaky watching him play live. Fair play to Chris, this is a superb take.

[CapraDemon]

That was a solid attempt. One of the things about these vids that i like, they break both the illusion that masters dont ever struggle, and also show how they can adapt and learn quickly. Loved it.

[JeremyHodges]

EVERY musician Plini plays with is 100% at the top of their craft.

[BrandonToews]

Killed it dude!🔥

And yes, it’s happening.

[atombom]

Man drumeo is killing it. I remember when this channel was brand new.

[AJ-gkbn]

Ridiculously impressive for under 60 minutes.
While being filmed no less.

Also. That ending teaser has me sooo hyped.

[aaronfisher]

II is such an incredible drummer. Every single part he plays is intentional and just the right amount of everything. Super hard to replicate

[ZMRSKK]

Waiting for Sleep Token drummer at drumeo itself!🤟

[forrestjames]

Chris is a totally AWESOME, let me say it again, AWESOME drummer. He utterly smashed that in under 60mins. He seemed so unhappy with the outcome (because of his incredible humility), but I challenge anyone to do better in that time. Damn you DRUMEO guys, giving him something so complicated and NOT giving him better feedback for how well he did with it!

[johnolar]

Genuinely appreciate any drummer who is willing to put themselves out there like this. Definitely a really difficult song too, good work.

[Entropytouch]

Watching the light leave Chris' eyes 1:11 as soon as the verse kicks in and II hits that little note slide into the riff was masterful *chefs kiss*

[lovelxne]

i long for this guy’s determination and how level-headed he is with not pumping out perfection, really great attempt and attitude

[aaronsandberg]

dude 2 is easily solidifying himself as one of the greats and its no easy task to try and play his style. You did well but can we all take a second to realize how well respected 2 is for being so new to the scene

[NastyNateB]

The fact that ii solos that break live and keeps it on count is crazy too

[michaelrains]

As a guitarist this is one of my favorite series on YouTube. Massive respect for the drummers out there. Watching y’all work is a source of joy and inspiration. Great song selection too. Nicely done.

[maxtrix]

Damn that’s a hard one… but he did so good. Can’t wait for II to come on the channel!
