(Whoopsh~)Top of the morning to ya laddies, my name is Jacksepticeye and welcome to my first
proper actual drumming video. I know I did a vlog a little while ago, whenever this was actually recorded, and
I played around with them a small bit, but that was just kind of me messing around and whatever came to my head
at the time and just showing you how they sounded. But this time I'm actually gonna sit down and play a song from start to finish
and this is something I've wanted to do
for a really really long time, and a lot of people have been asking for it ever since they found out that I played drums,
and now that I actually have a kit, a lot of people have been asking for it again,
so I'm gonna try it. I don't know how this is gonna go; I don't even know how to start recording it, I don't know
how any of this sort of stuff works, so, it'll hopefully get better as time goes on,
um
the-the visuals of the video and like the camera angles and
the sound and trying to mix it all together and make it an actual watchable experience,
but I'm gonna start off
the-the drum cover type videos with a song that means a lot to me, which is Chop Suey by System of a Down
and the reason I'm- well- I wanted to do an intro to this video as well and not just a song, that's going to come
um
you'll be able to skip ahead to actually watch that if you don't care about any of this stuff,
but the reason I'm doing Chop Suey, in particular, is because
that was the first song- I had an interest in drums before, and I had an interest in just music and everything already,
but Chop Suey was the first heavy metal song that I ever actually enjoyed.
I remember I was at home one day and Kerrang! TV
was on, and they used to just play like heavier types of songs and then-
I can't remember what other music channels I would watch, but they would proliferate
some metal in? Um...
System of a Down were considered some sort of like, alternative metal kind of band at the time;
really weird classification but they kind of blend it in and
bled into the other channels, and this song came on and it was so fucking weird and wacky the first time I heard it
and it just- it just hooked into me.
Like some of the people had heard the songs are like "What the hell is this?" But to me it's just like-
it's stuck in me and I was like "This is cool!
I really like this!" and I used to listen to it anytime it came on, with my friend
who was kind of getting into metal music at the same time, so it was the first proper metal song that we had heard
and really enjoyed, cuz everything else at the time sounded just like
*Death metal voice scratching noises*
and we didn't get it. Um...
Nowadays I love that stuff but Chop Suey
was my first foray into heavy metal music, and was my first foray into the style of drumming that I ended up having
as I was progressing, and it was really like the stepping stone for everything that would come after that and- there was a funny time-
My brother - my oldest brother -
He used to play drums a long time ago, and he played a lot of different bands and a lot of different types of music.
But he came over to visit from England one time
Uh, he came back for like a few days and this song came on and I was like- I wanted to impress my brother
because he always seemed super cool to me
and this song came on the TV and I kept thinking in my head "I wonder if he knows this song? I wonder if he
likes this song?" So I turned up the song really really loud
on the TV, and my brother heard it in the kitchen and came running in,
grabbed the remote off me, turned it up even more and started like head-banging all around the room, and
he was surprised that I liked this song, and I was surprised that he liked the song, and then that started off this like, really great
bonding session between us, that-
*sigh*
I dunno, it like- that was like
one really common ground that we finally got on board with, because before that we- we never really
had something to talk about like that interested both of us? And then, the next time he came back- or maybe it was that trip?
um
another time he came back he gave me that album, the-
The Toxicity album and I- that- that's like one of my favorite albums ever made,
even today. I love every song on that album and it's just so good- it's timeless.
I could listen to that over and over again, so that's why
I'm doing this song today so, um, I'm just gonna get into it. Sorry for all the rambling but I felt like it was a
A good story to tell, so. Let's go drumming!
