Hes an unbelievably amazing drummer. And thanks drumeo for showing that drumming is a process and its not only ok to make mistakes while learning, but its part of the process. Some tik tok drummers really kill those young drummers dreams fast with their editing and production to make it seem flawless when its not

8:59 that fill what grayson pulls is so damn good. So much speed, power and precision in in a few seconds utilizing most of his drum kit in a perfection.

Such tremendous performance. The mental aptitude to keep working the song until he is satisfied. Not leaving any stone unturned. Thats very remarkable

I like that he is a perfectionist.

Greyson is an absolute drum beast, love the guy. I think he’s going to go so far in his career and become a name every drummer knows

I have no words for this one!!! I mean after witnessing that, what else is there?

It is obvious why he got the Suicidal Tendencies gig. Mike don't hire scrubs at any instrument. Top young talent. Can't wait to catch a show, or even better, a new album with Greyson on the drums. ST4Life!

That solo at the end is crazy good, so in tune with the melody. Impressive!

I absolutely LOVE Greyson and hearing him nail my current favorite song gave me chills man

Greyson - what a sound - that was great - exciting to watch you do that!

These are really becoming a deep look into how different brains process and output new information while doing a similar task. Really cool!

I love this song!. They did this song at their concert on July 18th in Camden NJ. It's one of my favorite songs from their new band!. Glad you could do a cover

Guitar player here, every Drumeo video I watch just increases my respect for drummers. Watching him take in the track and zoning in on each section to the final performance was absolutely insanity.

Greyson always gives really good inspiration to me. Sounds good!

Greyson made a huge job! That was so breathtaking because this is a song that's really all about drums 🥁!

A7X definitely meant for there to be a lot of little mistakes in the playing. M Shadows talks on an interview with Nick Nocturnal that the band wanted something that wasn't overproduced and glossy. They really wanted to experiment and try new things and just be raw. It's not like the mistakes are intentional, but they didn't care to fix and clean up every single tiny detail. As (somebody, didnt catch the name) pointed it out, the thing with the high-hats was cool. None of the mistakes pulled me out of it. It doesn't matter. Music is meant to be immersive and make you feel something. That was a sick af cover and impressive that you played that well with that little time.

Was just watching this guy play caravan and was thinking "man this jazz drummer would slay some metal." I had no idea idea he played for Suicidal Tendencies. This guy is a legit prodigy. His jazz chops are next level.
