Alex needs a home band like this to pick him up. Something to show off his phenomenal talent. This guy is a beastly drum player. Hope nothing but the best for you Alex.
It'd be so awesome if Ordinance was able to pull together and tour somehow. The Ides of March is such a killer fucking album and showcases a ton of talent from everyone, but especially that boi RUDI!
@@MattJFilms dumbest comment on here. Whitechapel isn't bad but Alex is far to talented for these dudes. He may stick out more for doing some awesome shit to there boring music but that's it.
True. And besides, he is that good not only because of his talent but also because DRUMMING IS ALL GUYS LIKE HIM DO...ALL THE TIME! Lol. I think a lot of people forget that point. If we all did this as a full time carrier and just worked non-stop...like MJK worked non-stop, hell we'd all be chop masters lmao!
I have a tendency to watch these videos on repeat at like 2 AM and all it does is make me wanna go play my own drum kit and or jam out to whitechapel or anything equally heavy, but i cant even compare closely to how talented Rudi is, like for real man amazing job, i hope you stick with Whitechapel for their future records you killed the drum tracks on The Valley
I dont know what you mean with the fact that he killed the tracks on The Valley.. He didn't play them on the record. He's putting down the tracks for their upcoming album though.
@@lastditch727 wrong. Navene tracked The Valley but this song is from Mark Of The Blade which the former drummer Ben Harclerode was playing on. Ben was great, was sad to see him go but hope Alex stays permanently!
I didn't know you were filling in for Whitechapel, it was a pleasant surprise when I recognized you at Graspop! You guys really killed it, it was awesome!
Alex is amazing, basically he can do what he wants on the drums. I'm a super fan, it's my dream one day to be able to play like you. I feel very happy to see you play with Whitechapel.
What the f*** ... by far my favorite drummer. Hard hitter, awesome sound, so much focus in audio details (acoustic treatment of the set, mic placements, drum mix and process...), drum setup, technique...bla bla. Alex you are huge inspiration!!!
Holy shit man, you MURDERED that. Absolutely my favorite drummer. Always said you were the best since way back while you were doing covers with your old mics and set up playing haunted shores, YOU JUST GOT THE PERFECT SOUND!
Oh my godddddd those internal mics!!! I don't understand why more people don't embrace them or make an effort to either build or buy mounts for them. I handbuilt a mount to put my 91a in my floor tom a while back and it was the most amazing thing I'd ever heard. I swear, there wasn't even a smidge of cymbal bleed.
That fill at the 0:20 mark is by far the coolest fill I've heard you play - well for me anyways - and you've got a lot of them... given the smirk at the end of it - you enjoyed the hell out of it too!
Got to be one of your best videos yet. Awesome work sir, snare sounds killer. One of my favourite drummers, am trying to practice open hand playing like you. Keep up the great work.
I was gonna ask about the tom mics, but then I read the description. 😊 I used to have that "beach ball" sound on my bass drum (low tuned batter, higher-ish reso), and have kept a random t-shirt inside of it for years since I figured out that's all I had to do to fix it. 😂
NOW, THIS IS MY CUP OF TEA! THANKS, BUDDY! 👏👌BY THE WAY, THE DOUBLE KICKS LOOK PHENOMENAL! 😍👌 I DON'T WANT TO BORE YOU ANYMORE WITH MY BLAH BLAH ABOUT YOUR PLAYING AND ALL! JUST KEEP BLASTIN, RUDI! 😎👍✌🤘😁
Ay yes, the cyborg releases a new cover..... Always amazes me at the level of precision in your playing. Incredible. Love that little blast beat at 0:34 and 2:01 too.
badass. it was great meeting you in Houston a few weeks ago. My son couldnt believe he got your stick let alone met you afterwards and you signed it for him
Definitely one of the best cuts from "Mark of the Blade" and you knocked it out of the park!

comment was actually toward you lol
@@brandonmadden199 then let's see. He's tracking drums on their current record. Have your wish my man.
Words can not describe how badly i want you as a member of Whitechapel. I can't even imagine how insane new music would be.
Agree 🤘🏼
I mean.. They're currently recording their next album, with Alex behind the kit.
I never stop to watch it! The very hard parts are on the beggining and chorus! By myself I want perfomance this song live! With my bass
Can we take a moment to appreciate the production/mix of the drums in this video. Amazing
When I'm out of practice for months, I watch Alex's video and follow until I'm perfectly matched.
This man is The Bar.
These whitechapel covers really give whole new perspective to the songs the parts are so much cooler than I first think!
Alotta commenters saying they want to quit. Ha, he's an amazing drummer of course but it should encourage you to become better not discourage.
True. And besides, he is that good not only because of his talent but also because DRUMMING IS ALL GUYS LIKE HIM DO...ALL THE TIME! Lol. I think a lot of people forget that point.

It's a joke. I say it all the time
It's called a joke you stuffy bastards. None of them are seriously going to quit. Sheesh.
Yeah, I never understood that and it isn't funny either.
Most of those comments are meant to be funny. But yeah.
Every person that got to play with this magnificent musician is incredibly fortunate for sure! What a great fucking drummer!!
Funckiing incredible!My god!!! This might be my favourite performance from your channel dude!
It's a real pleasure watching you play. W.O.W 👏🤘.

Ben was/is an absolute beast on the kit.. so many creative moments.. great job Alex!
Whos Ben? Navene tracked this album
@@lastditch727 wrong. Navene tracked The Valley but this song is from Mark Of The Blade which the former drummer Ben Harclerode was playing on. Ben was great, was sad to see him go but hope Alex stays permanently!
@@harrygaylordrums i am indeed mistaken, i guess i assumed this was a new one
Love this snare sound
So awesome, I could watch on a loop all day.

Alex is amazing, basically he can do what he wants on the drums. I'm a super fan, it's my dream one day to be able to play like you. I feel very happy to see you play with Whitechapel.
This gives me the most motivation to get behind the kit...your a beast alex!!!
The void is my top fav track from Whitechapel insane and too much dopamine ❤❤
Incredible performance as always Alex!
That's a whole workout right there.... BEAST!
What the f*** ... by far my favorite drummer. Hard hitter, awesome sound, so much focus in audio details (acoustic treatment of the set, mic placements, drum mix and process...), drum setup, technique...bla bla.
Alex you are huge inspiration!!!
That kit sounds soooo incredible!!!🤤🤤
Holy shit man, you MURDERED that. Absolutely my favorite drummer. Always said you were the best since way back while you were doing covers with your old mics and set up playing haunted shores, YOU JUST GOT THE PERFECT SOUND!
Gonna give up drums and take up gardening after watching this.
Bro for real xDDD
Haha comment was gold
You can do both!!!
Just don't look up epic gardening videos and you'll be alright
So fucking clean as always.
And the kit sounds incredible.
And that snare is one of the best ive heard.
So much room sound on it. Can’t get enough!!
So many great awesome bad ass drummers out there, but Rudi is definitely in my top 5. I'm 46 and seen and met alot of awesome musicians. Top 5 Rudi!
That overhead of the cymbal array is sickkk!
That song is gnarly and Alex plays is so we'll.
I really enjoyed watching this
Such a bright sounding kit! I love his style !
Absolutely amazing - possibly the best video of yours I've seen. Incredible work - great sound as well.👍
As a drummer this is eargasm upon eargasm! Craaazy good!!
Love that snare sound.
Such a killer mix on this one! And dude you never cease to amaze us with your performance. Killing it!

The quality of everything in videos of Alex, image, techniques, and sound.... are INSANE! Congrats from Brasil!
Insaaaaaaneee dudeeeee. WTF. great playing.
I'm digging the new setup, with the rack and 2 kick drums !!!!!!!
Amazing cover, amazing drum sound
Man alive, awesome job!! I love the sound of your snare!
Absolutely SICK!!!
My face melted! Good job Alex!!!
So well done!
Spot on m8. Looks like you have made some upgrades to your kit. Love the set up.
holy shity.. that kit sounds soo good!!
That fill at the 0:20 mark is by far the coolest fill I've heard you play - well for me anyways - and you've got a lot of them... given the smirk at the end of it - you enjoyed the hell out of it too!
Ben really out down some amazing fills for Whitechapel. The fills in Our Endless War are also just.. Amazing.
Got to be one of your best videos yet. Awesome work sir, snare sounds killer. One of my favourite drummers, am trying to practice open hand playing like you. Keep up the great work.
That was bad ass! Great drum tone man!
Best TH-cam metal drummer? !
Him and Troy Wright
David diepol

My God that kit sounds nuts!
Those toms sound phenmooooooomenallllll
Love everything about this!
Just can't get over how good your drums sound! Killing it like always
Outstanding drumming Alex! I love Tama drums they sound amazing and the best sounding drums around.
I have now fallen in love with whitechapel
1:00 mark. After that run he plays he is like “phew” and takes a breath. Just wow.
Never ceases to amaze 👍🔥🥁
Damn, finally you look like you´re REALLY having fun!
Super cool Alex!👍🏻
Flawless as usual
So good!
I was gonna ask about the tom mics, but then I read the description. 😊 I used to have that "beach ball" sound on my bass drum (low tuned batter, higher-ish reso), and have kept a random t-shirt inside of it for years since I figured out that's all I had to do to fix it. 😂
Dude! That flow is soo good! Glad your touring with a name as big as White Chapel man keep up the awesome work!
Killing it as always dude! And man those toms sound awesome.
Man, you are a sniper! Extremely assertive, INSANE. And amazing drum sound
That was just sickkkkk
Incredible
Great tuning!
You're so good it's gross. Every drum video you post is cleaner than the last, keep up the good work!
Awesome!!
The new new-guy! Loving it! 😍👌
Rüdi is love, Rüdi is life
Always sick!
Excelente trabajo Alex... Saludos desde Medellín, Colombia.
Incredibly tight man!
Pure motivation. U the best
So sick!
Crushed it. Wish I could hear more thump from your kicks on this track.

Cómo te envido Alex. Saludos desde Argentina !!!
🙌🙌 badass Drumming!

Dude, what are the chances of you staying with them as a permanent drummer???? It would be f'ing badass to see you write a record with them!!
100% agreed
Nah, Navene absolutely killed The Valley! Question is...who is better? Navene or Alex?
@@cwelliver1985 Alex wtf
@@nathancanada6836 Ah, don't sleep on Nav. he is a phenomenal player.
@@BurnTheNuance you ca have your opinions but Alex has been In some of the craziest bands and is a fenominal player, and in my opinion better than nav
Ay yes, the cyborg releases a new cover..... Always amazes me at the level of precision in your playing. Incredible. Love that little blast beat at 0:34 and 2:01 too.
i love the samplers on this one, incredible playing by the way lml
Geez those toms are sick
This dude can play anything.
Badass! As usual.
badass. it was great meeting you in Houston a few weeks ago. My son couldnt believe he got your stick let alone met you afterwards and you signed it for him
SICK! 🔥🤘🏼🥁🤘🏼🔥
Loving this snare tuning. Reminds me of the pearl days
Damn dude..... those toms sound sick!! Sounds almost exactly like Ben’s kit live from the warped tour vids. Dooooooppppee!

Spectacular, greetings from Chile 🤘🏻🇨🇱
Whooo boy that's clean!
