- Had to upload because Sam wasn't sure I was serious that I had one of his videos to upload. Proof!
See the video posted after this one for a little lesson in adapting the flam accent for metal and jazz.

Devin Townsend said in a video on the making of Empath that he chose Samus for his precise, almost robotic style of playing. It was perfect for the sound he was after. Great drummer.
He’s basically the younger peoples Gene Hoglan. His blasts and extreme drumming is so influenced by him. Also his precision and cleanliness. He also uses triggers how they should be used.
Жан Агъырджанокъуэ Oh for sure. He has way more groove. He’s like Vinnie Paul on steroids. Sammus is a better version of Derek Roddy ultimately. Hes more styled like SYL’s extreme days but his blasts are very Roddy in nature just better. Another creative metal drummer worth noting no one follows is Peter Wildoer. Extremely musical and dynamic player. He’s the only reason I listen to James Labrie’s solo albums lol.
@@BJazz19 Samus has just such a different style, more tech death oriented... if you listen to his work with decrepit birth you'll understand what i mean!!
@@BJazz19 Yeah, part of what I love about drummers like Gene Hoglan isn't just the extremely precise, clean playing, but their ability to crank out hundreds of unique musical ideas effortlessly with that same precision and cleanliness.
@@FanaticDrummer Finally someone who shares my thoughts about Peter Wildoer. He is awesome!😎🤘🏻😁
Should start showing some vids of people or songs you want us to see as well 👍
I'd love to see this as well. One of my favorite videos was the snarky puppy reaction. I'd be down if he started branching out to different genres.
OR people submissions. High quality only. Help the unsigned artists get some followings! Thats whats missing on youtube.
"See, this is a guy called Mark Guiliana, you might like him." :D there are so many jazz drummers to enjoy, yet they are locked away from the public eye as much as the metal ones.
Yes, Please! :)
He's still drawing us in, sinking his teeth into us before he radically changes directions and we follow suit without question. Smart dude this guy is.
The flam accent blast is affectionately known as "The Dirk Blast", as made famous by Dirk Verbeuren, who has played for Devin in the past, was in Soilwork, and is the current drummer for Megadeth! Definitely check him out for some insane metal playing, he's got this loose frantic feel that's still incredibly tight and precise, one of the few extreme metal drummers with a clear signature sound, like you can instantly recognise when he's behind the kit!
Yes!
I've been asking for him constantly. With Soilwork though. I recommended the live vid of Long Live the Misanthrope. Love Dirk's playing in Soilwork.
Dirk is like Gar reincarnated at times. He's so heavy precise and jazzy all at the same time.
Dirk Drumming with aborted was also pretty nuts (specially Goremageddon)
Or Scarve. He was insane with them and did some clinics video of thoose musics.
So excited to hear what he does with Megadeth. I remember seeing a clip of him playing some blasts for a new Mega song.
Type "Archspire's Spencer Prewett Drum Playthrough" into TH-cam and enjoy my friend :) Dude is a machine.
Gravity blasts, overlapping quintuplet blasts, heel-toe quadruplets, Zil-bell + ride accents, Spencer definitely ticks a lot of boxes for Garrett.
He deserves a lot more attention for sure.
Yessssss
Watching you discover metal drumming is allowing me to rediscover the reason I love the genre and the instrument. Living vicariously through you is like watching my own child grow. This rules.
On top of everything re: the amazing drum performance, one fun little Easter egg in this song:
Chad Kroeger from Nickelback sings the harmony with Devin in the chorus of this song!
You should do Anup Sastry's playthrough of Singularity off the same Devin Townsend record!!! 🤘
You should do Anup Sastry who also recorded on this album.
He's a beast! Every time I'm blown away by drumming on a track I find out it's him
Anup is absolutely phenomenal!
Yeah Anup on Devin Townsend- Singularity
Anup's part in singularity is amazing, no where near as heavy as Hear Me, but my god its such a groove
Gotta do Anup and dude from Northlane Nic Pettersen
Damn. I’ve watched almost all your reaction videos but this guy’s really giving me an itch to get into metal again. Damn that’s such an interesting song and style of play
So glad you have added "gravity blast" to your vocab!!
This album was super cool, it actually had three drummers =]
Gene Hoglan - Skeksis
That's a great one. His playing is unique and tight as hell.
Love Devin, great choice! Still would love to see reaction to “Archspire New Song (350BPM)”!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that is Practically "Involuntary Doppelgänger" in it's BETA version... some parts are different but that is the same song while they were making it.
Samus is on of YT's strongest players, definitely check out more of his stuff
Alex Rudinger - Xenochrist.
Can't believe no one has recommended this
Not the first time I've seen this recommended. I also agree he should see it!
@@StratEdition yeah it needs to happen. Really anything Alex has done. The Monuments playthroughs would be dope as well.
It is done my dude!
Avsked for that one also.... :)
You're now giving us lessons? That's awesome! Keep it up bud.
Love Sam! Devin has had some awesome drummers behind him!
Check out some of Dirk Verbeuren's work. He's currently with Megadeth but his Soilwork stuff and on Devin's album Deconstruction are killer.
Morgan Ågren - Sol Nger Within
opeth deliverance live at Shepherd's Bush Empire
I get goosebumps every time I hear and watch that 66Samus playthrough
My man is getting into metal. Such a fucking diverse genre, yet so overlooked, still to this day. We're nearing 50 years of it now. Hope it stays long after I'm gone.
Lead singer of Nickleback did the backing vocals and growls on this track.
Samus is just freaking awesome.... great reaction. :) Keep them coming :)
Love the song and you’re analysis! You’ve had me hooked on your reactions for a couple months now!
Dude, I love your videos. Seeing you, a very knowledgeable drummer, give props and bring attention to these other incredible drummers is just amazing.
HELL YES!!! Dude i know every one is saying this but the pure honesty coming from your facial expression is what makes this great, not only are these videos Unrehearsed but its pure we get to see you get excited about the same parts that make us smile and that makes us smile. Keep it up bro. Also you made a comment in the video about the cleanliness of metal players. I have been saying that shit for years. I'm happy you are seeing that
I'm not a drummer but listen to most of the stuff you react to and you're giving me a whole new appreciation for these bands and drummers!
I think as a European, seeing ironed t-shirts hung up like that might be the most American thing I know of :) Love your content! And the t-shirts, 60-40.
Becoming one of my favorite channels
Hell yeah! You should check out Gene Hoglan, Devin's old drummer from his band Strapping Young Lad playing Skeksis. There's a really good drum playthrough of it
You would love Sean Reinert! He has a playthrough of a song called Evolutionary Sleeper on his channel.
th-cam.com/video/J5vagx9V050/w-d-xo.html
I thought the same thing. Or even some Atheist.. oldy but catchy..
Have suggested Sean to Garrett as well. That man is a pleasure to watch play, and the 1 album with Death (Human), incredible playing and ahead of its time.
Rod V - I believe that's the same (Cynic track) vid I used too.
Please do Jay Postones of tesseract! ❤️ Love your vids man!
Specifically do Of Mind: Nocturne... HEAVY AF... Tesseract are one of Meshuggah's many children. Check it out! :-)
Any part of Concealing fate. Jay is an atomic clock on all 5 parts of that song!
Yo dude you should check out Gene Hoglan playing Skeksis, it's a Strapping Young Lad track. He's called The Atomic Clock for a reason, and his technique is very odd. Would love to see your opinion on how he plays.
Seconded
Thirded
Farted?
For sure, I just had a look and now am in a need of explanation
I shart this.
He makes it look so easy...Samus is seriously next level.
OH YUUURRR!!
In metal what you call a flam accent is call a dirk blast since it was “created” by Dirk Verbeuren. Dirk is currently playing with Megadeth but was in band like Soilwork, Scarve and Aborted.
If you want to look at Dirk drumming you can find a playthrough for Alight in the Aftermath of Soilwork that is pretty good
Yeees ! His flam accent in the song "Dynamic" of Sybreed... Pure dope !
I love your reaction I’m a huge Samus fan. You have yourself a new subscriber 🤘🏼🥁
Your unknowning ascension to metalhead throughout these reaction videos has been really great for me. Wholesome af, and a pleasure to watch. Keep it up, friend.
So glad you checked this out, thanks dude 😊
favorite youtuber! love the videos bro!
Ever seen Fantomas live at Montreax with Terry Bozio? Suspended animation tour.
This I would love to see.
Wayheyyy! You did it! I was really hoping you'd get round to this one.
When the Rev did the Double ride in Almost easy is also really fun.
And the double splash
I love how you dont over hype everything. So many review channels are over hyping everything just to get views. We appreciate the realness man! Would love to see a video of you playing!
So glad I’ve found this channel!
Oh man this is a great song. So much talent all around.
This guy's a monster. YURRRRRRRR
SEX!
You should watch Morgan Ågren and Fredrik Thordendal playing parts of Sol Niger Within on Trum tv, absolute master class stuff
2-rides fill: *exists*
A jazz drummer from YT: "tililing" and *orgasms*
I just love your channel so much, your enthusiasm brings me so much inspiration as a drummer. You don't care if it's metal or jazz, you just enjoy the drumming. We need more people like you! Also a suggestion, maybe check out Jamie St. Merat from Ulcerate. He does some unbelievably musical, precise and dynamic drumming WITHOUT triggers.
love your videos bro!
Love the vids!i love watching Gene playing “Skekis” and dirk verbeuren playing “late for the kill”
because if this video I now own the vinyl of this record 🤘
Now do Dirk Verbeuren!
With Soilwork (now Megadeth, and he's also worked with Devin Townsend)
"Long Live the Misanthrope"
Yes! Dirk has such an amazing groove and finesse!
Great choice! I would also love to see a reaction vid of Dirk´s performance of Scarve - Asphyxiate : th-cam.com/video/7T4oDSgELQU/w-d-xo.html
i am loving every moment of watching someone fall in love with metal drumming. Going down the Devin Townsend rabbit hole is a MUST.
Ohh cannot forget the master of death metal drumming. DEREK RODDY beyond incredible. He can play anything any style ccx to perfection. This guy is a must!
Glad you reacted to Samus’ video. He is awesome.
I like watching you reacting to metal and being impressed or blown away by what you're seeing. There was a time where nobody took metal seriously enough for it to be able to get by on its own merits, and "He's a jazz drummer" used to be some kind of validation for a metal drummer, like being a metal drummer wasn't good enough. Metal has changed fairly recently, there's a shed-load more of this more technical stuff out there now, and it's really cool to see a non-metal musician appreciate it for what it is.
A lot of people still don’t take metal drummers seriously, “hurr durr he’s fast but no speed, no soul. Durr where’s the groove? This is boring and soulless, metal drummers don’t have feel. He uses triggers cuz he can’t really play that fast” etc. it’s such a shitfest lol.
Sam has to be the coolest metal drummer ever. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Hands down one of the best drumlines I've ever seen...
I absolutely love this song, and 66Samus is by far my biggest inspiration right now on drums. Like you said, it'll be another lifetime to play like him, but damn is he sooooooooo tight. A beast for sure. Also, I'm getting another solely based on this song/his kit!!! So fuckin badass. I enjoyed your video, you think like me:) \,,/
I was one of the many recommendors. Great stuff
That's God level... I'm sorry but that's barely human anymore. It's closer to a miracle. His body made like 7.000.000 movements, and it was straighter than a goddamn metronome.
All jokes aside, killer album, so diverse, there's disco, metal, jazz, symphonic, prog, death... And the cohesion is just outstanding. Not a single filler song. A masterpiece in my book. 🤘🤘
Devin had 3 different drummers play on his recent release. 2 of them upload to TH-cam regularly. Anup Sastry is the other one you might want to check out. Also, Alex Rüdinger is another sick drummer.
"That two ride shit is kinda giving me a semi."
LEGEND. Instant subscribe.
I love how you know all the terminology already like "gravity blast". He a metal fan now boys.
He clearly came a long way from calling it the "stick on the rim trick"
have a look at dirk verbeuren of soilwork. check out either long Live the Misanthrope live or Stabbing The Drama
Stabbing the Drama is a classic jam :D "Spectrum of Eternity" would also be an awesome one :)
You need some Spencer prewett from Archspire if you're digging the speed and gravity blasts. Archspire - involuntary doppelganger
Baard Kolstad - "Moon" (or any other, really)
He is an amazing drummer in every Way
Since you like double rides, you should check MGLA - Exercises in Futility V ( drum cam). You will be blown away.
Have you noticed that the he plays the pattern right before the double rides with his left foot? Pure dedication right there.
Request: Alex Rudinger - a Conquering Dystopia song would be sick
Tethys all day
@@tschaderdstrom2145 This all fucking day! Nuclear Justice is also a killer choice :D
snake oil!!
Tethys, mind games or stab wound 🤘🏻
His necrophagist cover is gnarly
Awesome react
Please look up Richard Christy live drum cam with Burning Inside... double ride, triple hi hat, absolute beast! Probably not reaction quality but his precision cuts through. Worth a watch.
Cleanliness is metalness... and so many people think it's just random noise
When are you gonna start building and playing a metal kit? haha
Billy Rymer from The Dillinger Escape Plan reaction soon!? ( I'm going to spam every video till you do lol)
Or Chris Pennie. Panasonic youth is my favorite Dillinger song for drums!
@@camhorejs yes Panasonic youth is amazing. But Chris left to play in coheed and cambria.... I can't realy look a him the same way since lol Prancer would be a good song too I think
fred pitt Yes! Dillinger Escape Plan! Honestly do a video of all their drummers cause Gil Sharone is also a killer drummer. But billy has the best drum play thru videos but Chris Pennie got that technique down
@@cringeonaudio Gil Sharone is indeed an amazing drummer also. He was in a couple of other bands too
Glad you enjoyed.
I'm not gonna miss any of your reviews. But you need to do Archspire.
Clicked on the video cause I saw your Couchmen hat!
There's a double ride section in Alex Rudinger - The Faceless - "Legion Of The Serpent" drum playthrough, that I think you'd enjoy.
Sam is hands down my favorite drummer at the moment (even growing up a Dream Theater fanatic - All the love to Portnoy and Mangini still!)
so clean...
It’s cool to see how much you enjoy Samus as well as Gene Hoglan in the other video. Fun fact, Gene played in Devin’s other band strapping young lad. Devin always gets the best musos!
I don't know if it's the origin (probably not), but the first double ride I heard was by Gene Hoglan on the Strapping Young Lad song You Suck from The New Black (1:20 into the song), so I think it's not terribly unlikely that either Devin or Sam wanted to reprise that effect on this album. It always brings a smile to my face since it's such a cheeky sound, particularly in contrast to the heavy sound of the song(s).
You have to react to Gojira - Flying Whales, the groove in this one is INSANE
Devin Townsend tiene siempre los mejores bateristas... Dev rules!! 🇨🇱
Samus is awesome with the blast beats. 🤘🤘
Great vids! I would love to see what you say about Archspire's Rapid Elemental Dissolve drum play through!
just an idea, but it'd be cool to listen to a Spotify playlist of songs you see having technically proficient drumming. maybe not even just metal/prog tracks, but songs that catch your ear. love the content.
Check out the drummer for Origin in the video he did for Meinl cymbals. He has his own custom double rides!
He is crazy, insanely sharp :-)
I like the drumming here.
I m glad you call 'hem gravity blasts now 🤘
React to dream theater- dance of eternity. You might love it.
Dude your videos are awesome! From one drummer to you, (I’m a metal drummer) it’s cool to see someone who knows what is actually going on appreciate it.
You definitely need to check out Dave McGraw from Cattle Decapitation
And Probably some Dimmu Borgir! Any of their older stuff is fantastic.
Also, I’d be willing to post a cover if you would like to react to your commenters who are also drummers haha
You should check out mike smith from suffocation...
I couldn't care less about this kinda music but MY GOSH THESE MUSICIANS ARE AWESOME.. this drummer is insanely GREAT
You want to watch another machine? David Diepold.
cleanliness is next to metal godliness
You definitely need a "Double the ride, double the fun" shirt haha
