[After watching] Okay. Wow. Well. Now that the song has stopped, my ears feel oddly empty. That was... a lot.
Kids - this is why we can't go with every single idea we come up with, especially in a collaborative effort like a band. There are times we have to edit back for the sake of a shared project. It seems like everyone came into this song with their own list of "cool ideas" and the group decided, "Let's just do them ALL!" There's no cohesion, no direction, no shared vision. Everyone wants their moment and their thing, and the band just lets it all happen in one chaotic collection.
After watching this, I feel like them splitting up was bound to happen. At times it's almost like they're each trying to play a different song that happens to line up with what everyone else is playing. A band can't function if the members can't agree on what song they're making. Props to the drummer, not just because OP is right that he's too good for this, but because I can't imagine how much worse this all would've sounded if the rest didn't have someone skilled keeping time for them. The percussion is the lone scaffold holding all the different parts together. Sadly, it's not enough.
At one point in watching, I imagined their poor parents living in a house where these kids were practicing in the garage. Or standing awkwardly at the back of some public performance, trying to support their kids but feeling deeply embarrassed and trying not to make eye contact with anyone.
