Chad is to rushed noisy and ahead of himself - one of those guys that likes to hear himself only sounds decent with the Peppers- like Carmine Appice - John was big because he laid back behind the beat and listened to his band mates - no one will ever capture the spirit of John Bonham
This here folks, is proof that groove is far more important than sheer technical skills. "I can play blast beats at 180 BPM" Chad smith walks in ""but can you groove?" mic drops.
Don't get me wrong, I'd certainly say that groove and sound are more important than any other aspect of a drummer's playing, but for metal, power, creativity and speed are also incredibly important, and the blast beat is, when used by the right drummer, (look up Eloy Casagrande playing the song 'Last Time', or Derek Roddy during his audition for Dream Theater) far more than just an exercise. Also, if you really want your conceptions of speed smashed, watch the video of George Kollias going from 200-280bpm while remaining clean and controlled the whole time.
Yeah, it all depends on context. If you want to play extreme metal, playing blast beats at 180 bpm is going to be a lot more useful than low to mid-tempo swung grooves a la Bonham.
maltman36 if they were awfull they wouldn't have been successful, and that's why so many people still like the chili peppers cause of they're good music, just because you say they suck or that it's a bad band it doesn't mean it's true
From 5:43 on until the end Chad turns the heat up and goes totally Bonzo on those beautiful acrylics. Thanks Bonzo Bash for one more year of props being paid to the legend who is Mr. John Bonham!!!
No offense to Chad but this shows how much greater Bonzo was than even the top drummers from today. The dynamics, the feel, the groove and the power Bonzo had will never be equaled. JHB the greatest drummer ever!
Saw them at MetLife. On thing really stood out was how I actually felt the drums. I mean the physical vibration in the air hit me in the chest hard. Blown away.
I thought he did better with Achilles Last Stand, he doesn't go aggressive enough with the tom fills here. The one thing he does nail is the bass drum, which was one of Bonzo's great tricks.
Man I used to really hate Chad smith as a drummer but I’ve really come to think a whole lot of him in the last few years !!! He’s not just a bashing maniac he’s truly an artist an I’m lovin it !!!
Chad nailed it! Listen to the bass drum. His use of cymbals. Also very important to hit the drums right. Chad played what I call heavy handed which is similar to Bonhams style.

Nailed it. The licks, the groove, the slowing of the tempo...Mr Smith is obviously a massive fan!
He fucking dances in the drum kit. Love Chad's groove.
Wonderful analogy
He's one the few big names that pulls of bonzo style.
he's a post-punk Bonham clone. He was hatched in a lab using Bonham's DNA and Will Ferrel's Mom as a host
monokhem Well it seems like u have to come up with some bullshit so u can just have a different opinion
what is 'too cute by half'?... is THAT engrish?
He actually plays on a similar set up like bonzo
This has nothing to do with John’s style of play.
Bonham could feel the drums, Chad just pounding into the drum without much sense
The loose playing combined with the tightness of those little fills and barks, masterfull.
Chad really captured the spirit, really nice!

Chad Smith is the epitome of groove
One of the best behind the traps. So much of a shame he plays in a shit band.
maltman36 WHAAAAAAT?!?!?!
Great drummer. Shit band. Flea, great bass player shit band. Anthony woeful..

I would say Chad Smith and Jean Paul Gaster are my favorite modern rock groove drummers.
Bonzo would be absolutely proud of every drummer's interpretations of his drum work. Chad Smith remains one of my all time favorite drummers!🥁🥁
From 5:43 on until the end Chad turns the heat up and goes totally Bonzo on those beautiful acrylics. Thanks Bonzo Bash for one more year of props being paid to the legend who is Mr. John Bonham!!!
Nothing new. Chad Smith remains on of the best drummers in the world, ever! Those thunderous fills! And the best Will Ferrell cover as well :-)
There is only one Chad Smith !!!!!!!! Master Class
He’s so good. Saw him in Chicago recently and he almost stole the show?! A drummer!
Incredible.
great feel, he did capture Bonham escense in this one... my respect to Chad!
And that's how DRUMS are supposed to sound... C H A D is a Beast BaBy!!😁👊😎👍🏻
Chad absolutely nails this
Nice speed king kick pedal triplets
Paiste crash is nice and bright 🥁😊
One of my fav drummers :3
My first influence
wuajajá!
That was AWESOME! Smith Nailed that song👍 Singer was really good too
Wow! I love Chad and I love this song. Amazing. Thank you for posting this! 👏🏻👏🏻🥁
Absolute legend. One of the reasons I started drumming. Fantastic groove!
POWER that is what it comes down to when trying to playing bonzo - well done Chad!!!
Chad's killing this! He's a huge Zeppelin fan.
O CHAD ONCEMORE KILLING IT LIVE . LOVE YOU MAN ! TARA AND PETER TAMPA
Nelíbilo. Smith do toho akorát mlátí a hudba, výraz, melodika se tím vytrácí !!
Nice timing on this one.
Great Chad feel to a classic Bonham sound
DAMN! Those drums kick ass! They just boom and blast!
2:42 is an Easter Egg. Chad Smith is a top tier player. His dynamics on the hi hat and the fluidity of his movements around the kit are beautiful.
R.I.P crash/ride/hihat
Ha ha 😊
Hahaha Alvaro that's rich!
Alvaro Iván Wrubel Shouldn’t be a problem because they’re the mighty Paiste! 👍
Bonzo style
Chad's so much fun to watch play, his groove just flows through the whole room.
Damn...Chad is impressive!!! Wow
you can ...play it....mean it.....this is living it....speechless.....I take a bow
What an amazing drummer
No offense to Chad but this shows how much greater Bonzo was than even the top drummers from today. The dynamics, the feel, the groove and the power Bonzo had will never be equaled. JHB the greatest drummer ever!
You can tell that he's winging it at times. Is he going to pull off the fill or flounder? The suspense is compelling.
Part of the adventure.
Chad played some really nice things here..... Very well done!
Just found this. This vid aboutChad and he is fantastic as ever but damn give the singer some as well.
This dude has such an incredible feel
Nice feel, nice hi-hat work. Best groove drummer in rock.
Saw them at MetLife. On thing really stood out was how I actually felt the drums. I mean the physical vibration in the air hit me in the chest hard. Blown away.
there've been some pretty good drum performances at these things-- this is one of the better ones. he actually captures the feel.
Fuxking nails it!!! Probably my favourite Zep tracks of all time. Where's the Speedking squeak though?
Between MIKE TERRANA & CHAD... 2 Beast of Animal Drummers !!😁🤟
Chad kills it! Great job.
Chad always makes it look so easy what a master
Killer performance!
Omg. Chad is fantastic !!!!!

Fabulous.

Chad gets points for the shirt alone! ❤
Great groove and musicianship.
Высший пилотаж. БРАВО !!!

I thought he did better with Achilles Last Stand, he doesn't go aggressive enough with the tom fills here. The one thing he does nail is the bass drum, which was one of Bonzo's great tricks.

Magnificent

One man i would like to have a beer with
Very close in spirit to the master.
Great feel...
F***n A! Had the spirit of the man himself! !

Es uno de mis favoritos.
Посмотрев почти все видео и имея такую возможность сравнивать понимаешь на сколько Джон Бонэм был талантливийшим барабанщиком!
awesome
Nice one Chad.
Badass! Ha!
Mad groove!
ONLY BONHAM WAS BONHAM LET HIM REST IN PEACE PLEASE BROTHERS ENOUGH ALREADY!
Man I used to really hate Chad smith as a drummer but I’ve really come to think a whole lot of him in the last few years !!! He’s not just a bashing maniac he’s truly an artist an I’m lovin it !!!
He has more groove than any modern drummer honestly. Check out the last samurai from the last chili peppers record and you will be impressed
SIK!!!
Heavy hitter great rock drummer
unbelievable O.0
Chad nailed it! Listen to the bass drum. His use of cymbals. Also very important to hit the drums right. Chad played what I call heavy handed which is similar to Bonhams style.
OMG!!!!!!!!!
This is fucking amazing
Chad gets it.
Ademas de dave lombardo este chico me fascina como toca la batería .
That was amazing. I am just getting into Chad's playing (not really a fan of RHCP) and WOW is he great.
One of the few reasons I enjoyed the RHCP show I went to haha
Could anybody tell me,which Paiste 2002 Version of the cymbals (size and Model e.g. Powerride) was used? 😊
Is that bill Burr at the end???
Chad Smith is so fuckin bad-ass!!!
Not gonna lie this makes me wana go on my 2000th led zep binge haha
