Charlie is without a doubt one of the finest drummers to walk the earth. He can play anything. From thrash to Rush and everything in between. As a drummer, the thing about Vinny’s playing that is extremely hard to duplicate is his monster groove and deep pocket. At any tempo. He was the John Bonham of aggressive metal. No one like him. So, to even get close to his stuff you have to be better than great. And Charlie most certainly is. Kudos brother!
Vinne Paul brought pocket and groove to metal. His creative drums parts are legend !!!!! He’s such a beast !!!!! Charlie does an amazing job and imitating vinnie. Vinne is watching above and very happy !!!
Yeah true but look at it like this.... this is a freaking super group !!! Imo the best thing in metal to happen in over 20 yrs. ❤ and to anyone hating on phil, that style is extremely difficult to control breath power live like that. He Is doing fantastic at his age. I'm 42 now I used to play and scream in metal bands. I know this stuff man. This is awesome ❤
Charlie deserves to be with Pantera because of his neverending respect as a drummer & a musician. He's always been a solid drummer, never out of pocket & he doesn't over play. His drumming has always been tasteful. 👍
The things Charlie has done to stay true to Vinnie is insane. Most fill in drummers usually just play like themselves but Charlie has the same setup, holds his sticks backwards, and keeps each part perfectly aligned with how Vinnie would have played it on record or live. Massive respect, and an amazing tribute. Charlie really is one of the greatest of all time.
Charlie.. Respect !! As a drummer, & a fan of both Anthrax & Pantera for almost 3 decades, when I shut my eyes to this track, I can feel that Vinnie's groove !! There's not a single flaw in every cymbal hits & attack.. My utmost respect !!
Not only are the parts perfect but the sound is exactly like Vinnie’s! Charlie you’re carrying on his legacy! Can’t wait to see Pantera on Monday and again next year with Metallica.
They are using samples of Vinnie's drum sounds mixed in with Charlie's live sound at shows. I'm not sure what the source of the audio we are hearing in this video is..but live, it is a mix. Charlie recently did an interview where he said that live, the audience a mix of 40% Vinnie's samples and 60% live Charlie. ..or maybe it was 30/70...I can't remember for sure, but it was either 40/60 or 30/70.
Met him and saw him in a 1000-cap room in Quebec City. The drum took half the stage, I was front row. A motherfucking kick in the face. Single most insane drumming showcase I ever seen, and I’ve seen alot. Vinnie was a superhuman drummachine second to none. Absolutely incredible
Got to watch (and hear) Vinnie with Hellyeah in 14. Even caught his drum stick! Better still: got to meet him and shake his hand, and got him and the rest of the band to sign a birthday card for my mom
Charlie also writes a lot of the music for Anthrax, plays rhythm guitars on a few albums, has his own solo album in which he plays drums, guitar, bass, and piano. He is also a producer and does a lot of the early artwork for Anthrax. A master behind more then just that kit.
I stumbled upon this by accident and i have to admit to me there is no Pantera without the brothers BUT.....Charlie and Zakk are killing it. Heads off.
Uncle Charlie is such a masterful player. The respect and fidelity in which he plays these parts, note by note, sound by sound is truly remarkable. Could not be a more different player than Vinnie, and yet, his output is Abbott to the core. Well done.
So you spotted it too! I was not sure and was checking for confirmation, because in other songs he goes normal. Vinnie was phenomenal and innovative, I appreciate that Charlie does everything he can to honor our drum brother. RIP Vinnie, ty Charlie ❤️
I think it's amazing that I had a chance to see someone who played "Only" or "Bring Da Noise" in Pantera doing "F*cking Hostile" or "5 Minutes Alone" 😁
And using the perfect Paiste Rudes & the perfect drummer to play Pantera....been listening to Charlie since Fistful of Metal ..saw Anthrax many times in the 80s!! Phenomenal...Love it!!.🥁🎸🔥
To try and honour Vinnies style and sound is hard, he was so unique with tasteful grooves and fills and had a monstrous sound. Charlie has the big powerful Vinnie sound going on and in the groove pocket, doing this aged 60 is mighty impressive
60 years old and looks and jams like he’s 25. Charlie is a bad ass.
Charlie really is kind of perfect to honor Vince, he's killing it!
There was Dave Lombardo also! 😉
@@tiziogtdid Dave fill in??! Looking it up

He’s also the driving writing force behind Anthrax for so long. Guitar parts even! Man is a legend!
I've lost track of the amount of shows I've been to where Charlie Benante has been sitting in cause the drummer didn't make it for whatever reason.
Nicko Mc Brain is up there too
Well said!! The "pocket" is where drums belong. I'm a drummer, so, that's my belief.
Yeah, writes many Anthrax songs on guitar as well. Guy is talented as hell.
For the fans, for the brothers, for legacy...hail Charlie! 🥁🤘🏻
...and through the mountains of money 😂😂😂
@@MrWCSOUSA so what...😎
@@MrWCSOUSAyou work for free ? Yeah didnt think so 🤦🤣
@@MrWCSOUSA what a stupid coment boy.
Charlie has been killin' it this whole tour.
He is doing a phenomenal job

Spot ON Charlie! We all appreciate you for keeping this music going with such grace.
Charlie is a true badass. He has even gotten the Vinnie feel down!!
He absolutely without a doubt nailed Vinny's style. Zakk on the other hand, unmistakably still sounds exactly like Zakk.
Zakk is a GOAT!
Yeah true but look at it like this.... this is a freaking super group !!! Imo the best thing in metal to happen in over 20 yrs. ❤ and to anyone hating on phil, that style is extremely difficult to control breath power live like that. He Is doing fantastic at his age.

I'd argue it's the other way around myself, but it's all subjective really
Vinnie is watching over this and giving Charlie a big “HELL YEAH”. Well done Charlie, well done.
Charlie is awesome. And RIP vinnie paul - another master of metal drumming
Gotta say you did Vince and Dimebag Justice. Phil fuckin sounds great
I can absolutely hear the depth and punch of his kit through my one speaker phone so richly! Just phenomenal! @TheCharlieBenante
Killer. Phil sounds amazing too.
Charlie has been a monster forever it seems. ❤
The perfect one to fill in
Charlie deserves to be with Pantera because of his neverending respect as a drummer & a musician. He's always been a solid drummer, never out of pocket & he doesn't over play. His drumming has always been tasteful. 👍
He won me over when I heard him play only with anthrax😳
The things Charlie has done to stay true to Vinnie is insane. Most fill in drummers usually just play like themselves but Charlie has the same setup, holds his sticks backwards, and keeps each part perfectly aligned with how Vinnie would have played it on record or live. Massive respect, and an amazing tribute. Charlie really is one of the greatest of all time.
Even has sampled sounds of Vinnies kit. That’s what I call honoring a legend!
Charlie.. Respect !! As a drummer, & a fan of both Anthrax & Pantera for almost 3 decades, when I shut my eyes to this track, I can feel that Vinnie's groove !! There's not a single flaw in every cymbal hits & attack.. My utmost respect !!

enjoy the show man!
He's doing an amazing job, but the sound of the drums is not near as how fat and loud Vinnie sounded live
They are using samples of Vinnie's drum sounds mixed in with Charlie's live sound at shows. I'm not sure what the source of the audio we are hearing in this video is..but live, it is a mix. Charlie recently did an interview where he said that live, the audience a mix of 40% Vinnie's samples and 60% live Charlie. ..or maybe it was 30/70...I can't remember for sure, but it was either 40/60 or 30/70.
If you never heard Vinnie live, you really missed out! he sounded like a god damn cannon going off it was glorious

Pure respect for Charlie!!!
I thought Charlie was an OK Drummer until now.
He's pretty versatile behind the kit. Much respects 🙏🏻

Anthrax is underrated
OK???!!! I need a lie down😮
Charlie just a ok drummer alright champ just keep listening to one direction then
Only was fire
Feeling the love!!!
🤘🏻❤️❤️❤️💪🏻🥁💪🏻❤️❤️❤️🤘🏻
All the band are awesome, cant wait to see them in august 😁
I stumbled upon this by accident and i have to admit to me there is no Pantera without the brothers BUT.....Charlie and Zakk are killing it. Heads off.
I can't stand Zakk's tone with Pantera's music. It just doesn't belong, no matter how well he plays the notes, it doesn't belong.
As a tribute group with the lead singer I’m sure trying to battle his demons. It’s not bad at all. The brothers are gone but their music lives on
Hammer brutal drum Sound. Charlie one of the innovative power groove drummer.
Uncle Charlie is such a masterful player. The respect and fidelity in which he plays these parts, note by note, sound by sound is truly remarkable. Could not be a more different player than Vinnie, and yet, his output is Abbott to the core. Well done.
Increíble sin duda el mejor para interpretar el trabajo de Vinnie
Excelente trabajo el de Charlie, se nota que lo hace de corazón y profesionalmente 🔥🔥🔥🤟🏼🇨🇱
Awesome! Great work Charlie
Charlie! You rock man 🤘🤘
The MASTER OF BEATS
Awesome!
I’m glad he’s playing with the butt end of his drum sticks, that was a key ingredient on Vinnie’s sound believe it or not. 😎😎😎😎
Just like the man who’s seat he’s sitting in. Even rocking his bandanna
I think Vinnie's were like that at both ends..
So you spotted it too! I was not sure and was checking for confirmation, because in other songs he goes normal. Vinnie was phenomenal and innovative, I appreciate that Charlie does everything he can to honor our drum brother. RIP Vinnie, ty Charlie ❤️
Today I learned..
He also used a marching drum head on the snare drum as well.
Awesome! The band is really tight now! They should keep it going, put an album out! 💚🎸
Wow. This is spot on.
Genial 👍
He does Vinnie quite the respectful honor with his playing. Amazing
Sooo well 🔥🔥🤘
Rex's bass wah during the solo sounds like a demonic talk box. 🤘
Amazing job Mr. Benante ... we miss you Vinnie Paul and Dime 🤘
Charlie has always been a beast
I think it's amazing that I had a chance to see someone who played "Only" or "Bring Da Noise" in Pantera doing "F*cking Hostile" or "5 Minutes Alone" 😁
We love you charlie for what you do for metal drumming community keep the good work ❤❤❤❤🥁🤟🏼🤟🏼🇨🇦
Hell yeah great job!
Nailed it
Always liked his playing.
Was listening to persistance of time a few days ago, that album has some of Charlie's best drumming on it IMO.
Charlie is and always was OUTSTANDING. The man is highly underrated. Ive always respected and admired him. Truly a drum God
Such a pro…
Tight, clean, human metronome.
A drummers drummer.
Hell yes.
Those FLAMS are just FukN Awesome
Great pocket. Pantera forever !
And using the perfect Paiste Rudes & the perfect drummer to play Pantera....been listening to Charlie since Fistful of Metal ..saw Anthrax many times in the 80s!! Phenomenal...Love it!!.🥁🎸🔥
I’m a drummer. He stays true to the artist. I love it.
My hero when I was learning and stagediving \m/
60 yrs old and killing it.🤘🤘🤘🤘
That's an amazing fact
Badass Stuff Charlie \m/
Charles in CHARGE!!!
Charlie is like the Big brother is always there to listen heavy metal
Put it down like a beast.. if anyone can cover Vinnie the respect that Charlie has to not change or add anything is so respecful..absolute LEGEND
Cool video! 😊 from Dallas, spent time with Dime and Vinnie. ❤ RIP.
God mode. Excellent job Charlie
Charlie's one of the TOP DAWGS. Few are better
Yea bro!
I’m looking forward to seeing them in Houston. Can’t get here soon enough
You can see here.. Vinnies drumming is hard work and it pays off! So well done Charlie!! This was huge! 💪🏻
I’m actually impressed with Phil’s vocals, they’re far from perfect but they sound much better than I anticipated
that fcken’ bass line during the solo!!!!
Impeccable timing you couldn't ask for a better drummer to do Pantera stuff he can play alot of stuff great drummer 💪👍👍👍👍
Charlie number one
Charlie's an awesome drummer, great match for pantera and makes it look easy.
I know this is a drum cam video and Charlie is great,but can we take a min to acknowledge how good Phil sounds.
Charlie rules!!!
Just too cool for school
Beast.
Uno de los mejores baterías del mundo.
Charlie fits the bill playing it vin would have himself. He respected the man’s work. Hats off to ya charlie
Un capo
Charlie.. you fucking killed it
🔥🔥🔥
Big Up 2 Charlie
Muy grande el señor Benante. Un discípulo aventajado del maestro Peart.
To try and honour Vinnies style and sound is hard, he was so unique with tasteful grooves and fills and had a monstrous sound. Charlie has the big powerful Vinnie sound going on and in the groove pocket, doing this aged 60 is mighty impressive
badass
Nice job Charles!
Holy shit, that was phenomenal.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
impressive
🤘
I seen two shows so far Charlie is a fucking bad ass
Charlie the Beast
bad ass!
Charlie underrated drummer
He honors Vinnie Paul well. Excellent to hear.
nice job CB!
Phils vocals are on point to !!!
Can you imagine being put in that place as an artist? All drama aside. They know they are playing others people seat. That's got to be mentally tough!
Pantera was the outlet of my anger in my youth. Vulgar display was the anger of the drums and the darkness of dimebags riff grooves with his brother
No rack Tom’s needed or used for this song. Outstanding.
That's Sick As Fuck!! Bringin' It No Bullshit!!
