Watch in HD!!!!! This is a drum cover of a song titled 'The Way The News Goes' by the band Periphery. Its one of my favorite songs off of their album 'Periphery III: Select Difficulty'.
I remember watching Matt Halpern perform this song live at the Meinl Drum Festival back in the summer of 2016. This was one of my favorite songs off of the album to begin with, but watching him play this song live was SO sick. I've wanted to do another Periphery cover for some time now, and I thought this song was appropriately challenging and fun to do.
