Rev lookin down with a proud tear down his face
He just went into the woods to come back as the knife mastaaa someday. I hope he's got wifi in there to se Brooks killin it
The Wackerman family are all monsters on drums. They're all great drummers. Plus, that album of The National is one of the best album of 2023.
Can you imagine what their household might have been like? I imagine all of the brothers were doing everything they could to bring the best out in each other’s playing.
@@P_Blakelike the chad smith vs will ferrel drum off on fallon😂
I’m sorry family?!
Yes, the Wackerman is a family of great drummers. Brooks is the brother of John and Chad who are two great drummers and their father Chuck is also a drummer. A family of great drummers. 😊
He plays so musically and drum phrases are impeccable
I wanna see the whole show from that angle!
Brooks' performances with Bad Religion are some of the most inspiring drum performances for me period
Absolutely!! Just killer stuff
You look at the Grey Race and you’re like meh it’s an ok “rock album”. Then The Process of Belief comes out and Brooks kills and Bad Religion is like a legit punk band again.
That YC snare tho🔥
Brooks was a gem for A7X, they're fit each other. really great musician A7X always looking forward and keep better and better
I remember when this guy was playing with Infectious Grooves when he was just a little 15 year old kid. He was always a little badass beast.
Drums sound great and sounds well chosen !
Love that he gave a shoutout to Gene “the atomic clock” Hoglan. Brooks and Gene are 2 beasts of metal drumming
7:07 is the sickest shot, please take more vids like that
Brooks always chill but a damn monster on the kit. Super cool dude if you get a chance to hang with.
Bought the latest Avenged Sevenfold album after seeing a brooks playthrough video. Incredible record, and incredible drummer.
Brooks is a MONSTER!
Imagine Jimmy having a drum tour with his monster dw kit😢that would be so perfect
avenged sevenfold's are so perfect fit for him to explore his talent and he did it!
this man is truly legend!🤘🔥
I couldn't agree more
YC drums are some of the best out there, blew my mind that Brooks is playing one.
I love that he’s wearing a The National shirt.
Damn, 0:23 he has a clamp on the outside of those hats for nobody! Sweet detail for those tight sounding hats🤘🤘
Solid video, really cool to see him talk about the kit!
I believe that those are smaller hats that were custom made for him for the song. They look smaller than the ones in the other videos. At the very end you can see his drum tech coming to switch hats at the end of the song. I love that sound and I wanna know what it is
That snare drum sounds so good 😍😍
I absolutely love watching Brooks play ❤ He's so humble. And such a beast. He's one of my all-time favorite drummers. Avenged Sevenfold is such a great fit for him. A7X foREVer 🤘
you brings A7X to the next outstanding level mr! 🔥 you're complex fills,skills and energy truly inspired me..& prove us that AGE is just a NUMBER 👑 Respect! and thank you so much for brings back Classic A7X hits songs "Save Me,Blinded In Chain,Eternal Rest"
Brooks is such a humble Stud!!!
Brooks is a drumming god
Very Happy to see that he mentioned his sticks and kick beaters, so glad to be part or Innovative Percussion and making his and other Artist sticks...
Should’ve mentioned that mini Hihat that the drum tech Eric changes for him too! Just like the end of the video! So good!
Agreed. The unique stuff like that is more interesting then hearing someone run down their tom sizes, etc.
I knew he was the drummer for A7X but I had no idea he was endorsed by Innovative Percussion. I’ve always taken them as more of a drum corps and marching band stick company but that’s amazing he is. Strongly considering switching back to innovative now!
Calm but killer
OMG that solo excerpt at 6:14 was soooo 🔥🔥🔥🥵🥵 Killin! Brooks is great
Proud to see our cymbals around the world.
the YC drum shout out lets gooooooo
Brooks is easily one of my favorite drummers!!! Incredibly versatile and precise!! 😎🤙🏼
I love the look of all rack toms with the same depth. Super cool
So glad they got brooks. His capabilities are what a7x needs and is what makes a7x the band that they are. I didnt think that aaron kid fit in from the first time i herd him play the revs songs.. but i figured he might grow on me. But he never did. Then they released hail to the king and tho the album is full of good songs it dosnt hit a7x standards as far as i (a fan since 2005) was concerned. Was releived when they put out the stage. Brooks is the man
They made good choice getting him as there drummer
🤘🤘
Saw them in Cleveland last weekend and they rocked
great drummer...love that he changes the hi-hat just for Nobody lol
Thanks for making this video, Brooks is incredible drummer
Great, great drummer, as all Wackerman guys!
So awesome to watch these guys all play. Everytime I think I’m starting to get sort of good. I watch stuff like this and remind myself. Work harder.
Respect for The National new album T shirt
I love my Istanbul cymbals.🤘👍 Brooks is an incredible drummer!
Brooks is a beast all started with Bad Religion for me so dynamic 💪🏻💪🏻keep rocking
I use one of Brooks innovative percussion blue wood beater w/Tama speed cobra 910 pedal and combined with a aquarian nsuper kick2-and a remo woven patch,sounds really good,nice drum kit,on e brother plays jazz/fusion the other plays metal/punk but both nare amazing talented drummers.
we love brooks! Huge fan🫶🏽 and what a sick drum-set! 🤩 i mean, I don't play drums but if i had a kit like this, i would totally play every day😃
That snare and the entire kit sound incredible!
Sick! He’s using an Acrylic Drum Set!🔥🙌🏻
Best drummer
Brooks' use of the hi-hats to keep pulse during fills or riding on other cymbals really elevates the groove. He has a magical way of playing really unusual fills incorporating voices all around the kit that are always tasteful and musical. And what a great kit!
My idol forever, really good drummer with decent technique and tasty drum parts! Love these kit rundown videos! Love from Taiwan 🇹🇼
What a lovely birthday present 🎉
saw him at Club Lingerie with AZ/DZ a lifetime ago. destined to be great. had brother Chad's footsteps to follow.
Thanks for the video
Such a beautiful drumkit 😍 love you, Brooks! Thanks for this video!
Keep it up ❤
Total badass
clean kit
Amazing kit and love the shout out to Jordan and YC drums!
Not many metal drummers play with Istanbul cymbals. They are definitely a great cymbal company... Rock on!!!
Istanbul is pretty dope!
Love to see it lit up on that plexy riser
Brooks is one of a kind, very versatile and creative.
I thought the video would be longer, like the one with Danny Carey.
So happy for this dude. I know he had a career prior to a7x, but he seems so happy in this band. I also think his joining has re energized the band after a shit history of drummers
FODA DEMAIS MANO, EXCELENTE ESCOLHA DE BATERIA E PRATOS!!
Listen to Infectious Grooves - Groove Family Cyco!
It´s from 1994 and his drumming was already fantastic back then when Brooks was only 17
1:42 Matt Horn sighting
I just learned that he swaps the hihats in and out for "nobody". Thats crazy
THE ONE...
Dope nod to the National. Could be a dope lineup…National going on tour soon…
Wish Istanbul would make that mega bell ride a permanent cymbal in their lineup.
Brooks uses Agops but Istanbul Mehmet makes a couple things that are approaching a big bell, they tend to encompass rock/metal a bit more than Agop.
Good to know, thank you.@@haydendraycott7897
@@CorridorOfChameleons94 I looked it up and they do indeed have a mega bell ride, the Snowy Shaw signature ride. Also check out the Samatya, Session, and X-Cast lines.

Loved Brooks in Bad Religion. Never got into A7F though....yet. \m/
What a fitting last name
andalan 🔥
Brooks looks like The Rev without tattoos.
As cool as it is to have brooks in the band. It would have been awesome to see how far the rev would have gotten with his talent. And it would have been great to see a kit rundown of the rev’s last signature drum kit with the 3 kick drums. I remember seeing that kit the first time I saw them which was jimmy’s last time in my town almost a year before he passed. It ws insanely huge looking even from where i was
Brooks is a beast! 🔥🔥🔥
Menyala om brooks🔥
6:13 That was killer!
And I will, best my fists against, my chest. (My chest against my chest)
If only to, prevent my heart from beating for you. (Beating, for you, for you)
I’m curious did Avenged Sevenfold not want any other Drummer but the rev to play and sing at the same time? Or was Brooke and Aaron not able to do it?
They probably don't have much of a singing voice. Rather it be while playing drums or not playing drums. The rev was a different animal. He didn't have to rely only on his drumming skills. Hell he had a backup plan in case a7x didn't work out . He had pinkly smooth. And he didn't have anything to do with the drums in that band. Vocals and keyboards
Enak bet sound nya
As a drummer I can tell you every make and size of every cymbal on my kit. It’s amazing to me Travis barker brooks and other have to look at what’s on there kit to know.
The audacity of those professional drummers!
Brooks layak juga megantikan the rev skill bermain nya di atas rata²
A7X FoREVer 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
No way that's a 10 inch splash on that mini stack above his rack toms. There's a 10inch tom right next to it and the upside down splash is way bigger than that 10" tom. Thats probably a 12inch splash upside down ontop of a 14inch mini china stack.
10:00 . 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awesome kit and finally a drummer with the needed skills. What a song is playing at 0:25 so in the beginning of the video?
The song is Nobody from their new album
Thanks and have a nice day
Is that @matthorndrums ? 1:59 I see you lol.
Brooks style was made for Avenged Sevenfold
On the song NOBODY on the album recording, what is the effects cymbal on the upbeat after the word 'before' the lyrics go, Pirouette with divinity in a dance we've shared 'before'..
@drumNdrum coba riview bang😅
We gotta see him play almost easy with the double ride lol
drum tech to the rescue lol
Has someone built this kit on drumstructor yet?
Brooks, is this the same kit you recorded LIBAD with? Cymbals too?
He didn’t say the kick drum sizes. I would assume 22x16 but they kinda look like 22x14??
I'm amazed he stayed in Bad Religion as long as he did, I think by the 3rd album he was getting bored.
Finally reviewed the drum set, great sir☕
What is that 'pipe' thing on the left side?
What ride cymbal is that? He only says it’s a 22”
