Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

LINKIN PARK - Heavy Is The Crown - Drum Cover

What's been waiting on Kristina Schiano's cover list? "I have been wanting to make a full-length cover of this song since it came out," she says after finishing Linkin Park's "Heavy Is The Crown." Her verdict on getting there: "Here we are, better late than never."

"LINKIN PARK - Heavy Is The Crown - Drum Cover" has reached roughly 44,000 views. Schiano counts in with her sticks, powers through the chorus and briefly settles into a rim beat during the bridge, smiling and singing along. Then the screaming breakdown brings the crashes and fast fills back. A final flourish ends with her sticks in the air.

The comments offer a particularly drummerly listening guide: viewers single out the double-bass fills, the chorus bass pattern and the sound of the hi-hats. Requests for another Linkin Park cover include "The Emptiness Machine" and "Points Of Authority." One longtime viewer remembers watching her for more than a decade.

The new cover is also her busiest upload by current daily views. "Drumming In High Heels?!" remains another active draw, with "A DAY TO REMEMBER on DRUMS! #drums #drumcover" adding a smaller stream of views.

Subscribers held steady across the week, while daily viewing is currently below its usual level. Among nearby instrument channels, EMIL VERGO is having a much bigger week, while The Ruby Piano's daily audience is close to its normal size. Schiano's enduring catalog has its own substantial landmark: "Bring Me To Life - Evanescence - Drum Cover," posted eight years ago today, has passed 33 million views.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!!! I feel like any LP song old or new is always appreciated. If I had to pick one though from them it would probably be Points Of Authority, all time favorite from them.

Seriously love watching you rock out though, always a joy. 🥰❤️
