Awesome Music / The 8-Bit Drummer

Jerod has covered so many songs, but these in particular deserve a mention.


  • His most popular song is a cover of "Master of Puppets". The twist is that every time the singer says "Master" the video gets faster. He impressively manages to perform the whole song right to the end, despite having to blast-beat with all his might just to barely remain on beat.
  • His cover of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" is one of his most popular covers, mainly due to how well the drums work with the song and his chat timing donations to the song perfectly. He mentioned in a throwback stream where he went over his old content that this one actually accumulated more dislikes than usual because a lot of people thought it was going to be a version of the song where all the instruments are off-beat, due to the title being mistaken for sarcasm.
  • Jerod's cover of Sheet Music Boss' RUSH E was described by a commenter perfectly:
    exaltedb: The addition of drums to this made this feel almost like a legitimate instrumental.
  • His cover of the William Tell Overture finale. The drums mesh perfectly with the song and don't sound out of place, the drumming is very advanced and flawless and he adapts with the tempo changes very well.
  • While the title theme of CrazyBus is literally just a randomly generated cacophony of notes that sounds more like a chihuahua on a keyboard than actual music, its one saving grace is that it has a coherent tempo of 180BPM. Therefore, with Jerod's drums backing it, it actually sounds like some insane heavy metal track.
