ZackGrooves Hears Architects For The First Time

ZackGrooves is a KZreadr, jazz drummer, and chops master.
He'd never call himself a rock or metal player - and that's exactly why we dared him to play "Doomsday" by modern metal/rock band, Architects.
Zack has never heard the song, let alone the band. We gave him the drumless track and asked him to come up with a drum part.
He said it's like nothing he's ever played. But his interpretation is refreshing and even gets surprisingly close to Dan Searle's original parts at times. From syncopated grooves to ghost notes and cool linear patterns, Zack made the tune his own.

    Probably the minority here.... I'd much rather hear the entire drumless listen through with the drummer, especially if I don't know the song myself. It adds a little 1st person perspective if you don't know the song. You get to experience the creativity with the video, instead of just watching some drummer beast it out

At the second part before the bridge it was spot on (different, but excellent). I can't believe how well he managed himself through the song.

    I've got mixed opinions on this: To be clear, Love Zack, love this take - but we have to consider the practicality of ghosting all over the place live at a Metal concert. Would it cut through? Maybe. Maybe not. To agree with the point - doubling the guitar with the kicks has become a bit of an overused trope in metal. That said, One and Bleed are hills I will quite happily die on. To end - not hating Zack or this version - just saying that all that nuance and subtlety may not translate to a live performance.
