  • @sleuth2077
    Clay has mastered the art of space. He leaves space, which let's the music breathe, but also lets his tasty fills stand out. Great addition to the band.
  • @TheEffence
    What I love about Polyphia is that each member is a complete monster on the instrument they play and together they are just phenomenal.
  • @junglecack
    I went to high school with Clay. He was in the Drum line and was amazing. Also I repember in Spanish class he always had his drum sticks and this weird rubber pad that he would practice on. So much so the teacher has to take it away. I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you want to be good at something, practice, practice, practice!
  • @deadewok02
    i swear...Clay has mastered the art of doing a ton while not doing too much at the same time.
  • Clay is such a great drummer. His accuracy with the mix of trap beats with jazzy accents is just unlike anyone else in the rock side of music right now.
  • Clay is the one drummer that I just can't predict anything he's about to do. His parts are simple yet ridiculously complicated at the same time
  • @TacoBurrit0
    I know other bands do it too, but I really love the way Polyphia treat the drums as another instrument and not just as a timekeeping device
  • i love how you include the meaning everytime you speak a jargon saves the time from searching it up. you got my sub
  • @jleighwolfe
    As a guitarist i knew how talented of a drummer he was but did not fully appreciate his ARTISTRY until seeing his drum playthrough of this song. He riffs on those drums like a stringed instrument. Getting every tone and texture out of each piece of his kit. That's beyond technical proficiency. That's beyond drumming.
  • @dudesidabe8243
    This song is a major show of his marching band experience. The whole drum solo looked like he was paying a set of tenors from the drum line lol.
  • I saw in another reaction that Clay was in a marching band, which is why he is so tight and clean with his playing. They also stated that he definitely pulled some of the rolls from the marching band into this, especially with the high hats and the ride.
  • @emorsi
    Clay is my absolute favorite drummer because how he stops, getting on again, stops, and riding the train again is so unique and sounds so instantly classic. I think he is one of the best in the world right now.
  • @Rob_0_Pierce
    Yea he’s really good. When they played at SoWhat festival in Texas, I guess his in-ears went out. So his drum tech who could hear the tracks and click through his in-ears tapped his leg through the whole show so Clay wouldn’t go off. What I read about this that was even more impressive, assuming it’s true, is he played a good portion of one of their songs without click before he was able to make anyone aware but didn’t miss a beat. That’s solid playing right there!
  • @godsgranddad
    I think the best part of this, isn't the playing. It's the skill and creativity it takes to actually compose a track like this
  • @Frannis
    I play no musical instruments and this kicks ass.
  • @ericcambrey8929
    “It’s just so musical” is really the perfect description.
  • @moviebad109
    What stands out most about his style is how long he can go relying entirely on cymbals and bass*. There’s whole phrases of the song where he’ll maybe touch the snare once through a whole bar. That level of control, and really using the whole kit is what makes him standout.
