1:49 theres something about grooving a double time song in half time thats just mind blowing when its done right.

[JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Matt is a slayer!!! Dude is just a beast with conviction! Much love brother!!!

[JaydonTobler]

2:31
Matt: "Watch this guys. I'm gonna change it up and play this part on my toms as fast as I can. But don't worry, you can do it too if you practice!"
Me: "Sure Matt. Sure."

[athena.bismuth]

I'm consistently amazed by his ability to make complex rhythms sound huge and bombastic. Greatest drummer of our time

[KevinCorkran]

I still can't believe this doesn't have more views. this is like one of the most insane displays of drumming I've ever watched.

[AuthenticProphetic]

i literally almost died from holding my breath through this entire video. i didn't even realize i was holding my breath until the end.

[shanebrady]

I wonder when his spaceship leaves and if he's learned enough about us to be useful to his people

[mohantysumit]

Once in a live concert in Zürich, Tosin admitted that the first words Matt ever spoke as a newborn were 'hi-hat'

[universe]

God Bless You Matt Garstka. Thank Greetings from Poland.

[dantheman]

Legend has it he can perform photosynthesis with his mouth, so he has no reason to leave the drum kit and practices 24 hours a day.

[GrooveJuggernaut]

0:25 muting the snare was slick as F@$%
So good, Matt!

[thestonegoose]

Jesus I have no idea how he keeps track of the beat when he goes into fill mode. I mean he plays so much and constantly in different time to the main song barely syncing up. How he doesn't get lost in there is astounding. Massive respect!

[magicfairycome]

9 years since i haven't been able to listen to this song the same way

[preisseldrums]

Matt never ceases to amaze with incredible musicality and precision, holy crap!

[neige]

I did not foresee him playing to this song. I'm so glad he did though.

[asalas.photography]

The Animals as Leaders influence shows at 1:48. I can hear Tosin and Javier riffing over that

[davidchapman]

Wow I really love his work!so amazing man wanna see more him

[DMUber]

This video gave me a new level of respect for this song, which is something I could have never foresaw.

[Ironsvillage]

Why aren't there any Hip-Hop/R'n'B songs with drums that shred so hard like this right here? I love Matt, he should do a side project like this, shit would be lit af fam.

[vincentbwang]

this is the new modern drummer festival, except everyone plays cymbals i like!
