They do not call him The Drumminator for nothing. He's a monster of a drummer.
💯👌
He's an Austrian i actually can look up to. he ain just a machine dude is also humble AF
Thomas Lang, the robot that cames from the future to destroy the drummers dreams.
Thomas Lang's feet are equally coordinated as his hands. Mind blowing and depressing at the same time.
I couldn't have said it better!
In his totally astonishing drum-clinic for Drumeo he stated that the feet should do whatever the hands can do - then he went on to prove it. Eating a Chinese takeaway later though was not a pretty sight.
This guy is the drummers drummer, his limb independence is extraordinary, and I'll never tire of watching his feet go .
Agree! There is not one drummer on the planet that could not learn from this virtuoso! TL must be part octopus....simply amazing how he keeps all the patterns flowing so flawlessly!!!!
Yeah his limb independence is fuckin wild
It's hard to believe that I've been watching this dude for over 15 years.
He's incredible alright!
I've followed him for 8 years. And I think he's the best drummer..wait...Marco is the best drummer...but wait...Thomas are the best...ehh...Marco...uhh...Thomas...is are is are ...#@~°《☆●##💥💫💨♨️🌋
Thomas is simply a drummer virtuoso. His technical ability is second to none. He is a world class drummer all the way!
100% Joseph
I remember a while ago in a Q&A, someone asked him for tips on how to become a session drummer. He basically said, if it’s in LA, give up, most of the gigs are mine, you won’t get hired if I’m here.
This bloke is a drumming wizard 🧙♂️
👌yes Brent!
This is one of my favorite performances by any current drummer. Lang is obviously one of the best to ever perform. Simply amazing skills.
Yes!
I cant argue there never seen anyone ever besides Bozio play all those pedals nothing against Terry he is Phenomenal but Thomas takes it to another level
Lang is such a powerhouse. Watching him demonstrate fast singles across the kit is uncanny. He looks more like a robot than a human the way he rotates his upper body while keeping his arms more or less the same.
He is a robot - a human CANNOT possibly have that kind of limb independence !!!!!!!!!
Thomas is playing with his heel down the entire time! Crazy
That drum tone tho 🤤😩 his drums always sing no matter the video.
Aside from the insanely good drumming, those are some of the sweetest sounding drums I've ever heard. Okay I'm blown away.
Thomas Lang is the greatest drummer who ever lived . The man is not human . He and marco minneman also play guitar very well
Hey Andrew! Enjoyed the video, quick tip - instead of clicking pause randomly to get the frame you want, UA-cam has a couple of keys you can use when paused;
Comma "," will move one frame back
Period "." will move one frame ahead!
Cheers
This need a thumb up!
When you audition for Dream Theater and blow their minds, you might be a good drummer🤷🏼♂️
Half hour into his first lesson teacher tells him he's graduated.
@@tortillasarenotbiceps7622 45 minutes later the teacher asks him for lessons
@@pedrosilvamusician True story.
His 4 way is insane 😳
@DCgameGuy85 1 As is Virgil.
He use every element of this drumset and there are a lot elements! He foodwork is insane!
Thomas Lang’s solo at the meinl drum festival 2015 is worth a watch
Sounds good! 🥁🙌
I would like to see/hear Thomas Lang with Ghost note on Zildjian live... That´s would be absolute madness.
GREAT call. Does Thomas play Zildjian?...
@@AndrewRooneyDrums I dont know really. But if he doesn´t, he should. Just to be able to do a Zildjian live for us all :D
The problem for me when listening to TL, is I really do want to quit. He’s so precise and perfect it hurts. Watch him do a simple snare roll, and the perfection of the rebound hit melts my brain.
Exactly. Some stuff from other legends like mangini, portnoy etc. is like: "well, maybe I can play this stuff one day if I only practice hard enough." Hearing stuff from Thomas is like: "Oh, guitar is an interesting Instrument too, Oh wait, thomas play guitar too? Well I should sell everything what reminds me to making music...". This hard as hell polyrhtms are the final boss.
He is absolutely beyond, massively dynamic, his technique is incredible.
His drumeo double stroke roll class blew my mind
Virgil, Marco & Thomas... the holy trinity of drumming.👍
I think that to
Marco isn't technically beast like other two. Thomas is GOD, followed by Virgil and Magini. Portnoy is best all round drummer followed by Marco
Gavin.
@@KingKong-xp6so Prove to me that marco isn't as technical as the others. Portnoy is the best overall? Definitely your opinion, no facts were spoken
@@KingKong-xp6so - What?!
Marco is absolutely up there with Lang, Donati, and Mangini.
Portnoy is excellent, but wasn't known for "extreme drumming", and insane independence like these othes mentioned.
Me and my buddy Benji went to Adams Drumworld Festival a couple of years ago. Outside there was this tall bloke (I'm 1.94m myself) who greeted us with a big smile. It took us a couple of seconds to process that Thomas Lang just greeted us 😂😂.
We felt like Kings, and his performance on stage was amazing!
Anika Nilles also played that day, she was an absolute beast too. Would really love to see her on the channel one day.
Ive been waiting for this. Thomas is just incredible
I can't even listen to this as good as he plays it.
I’ve never heard any kit sound this good.
Thomas is a master at the craft and I love his attitude. Thanks for the vid, really enjoyed the discussion on it
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve watched this; I’m still speechless!!🥁😷
Masterpiece!!
Thomas makes it looks so effortless! He truly is legendary!😎🔥🔥🔥🔥💯👍
Amazing precision Mind Blowing another amazing drummer love it
Makes my brain hurt watching this...simply amazing
Andrew, I love your channel! You always have such kick-ass highlight videos... Simple amazing!
Thank you Mark!
I truly believe Lang could be the GOAT.
It's as though he has a foot for every pedal, and a hand for every top skin and cymbal. The man's an octopus! Phenomenal percussion player/artist. Thanks again Andrew. Best wishes from UK. 👍👍👍☮☮☮
And to think he plays that well with those logs he calls sticks. He’s just from another planet.
thomas lang is insane
🤯
He is a true inspiration!
🙌
In simple terms Thomas has a brain on each hands and legs, turn to right while you go left
YES!
Total control. A whole new level that is beyond the imagination
Wow. That was incredible.
Sure is!
FIIIINALLY... :)
Thx for this reaction
Thanks for the reaction XD good work sir!
Thanks David!!!
He has a great mind. He know how to tell a great music story.
Thomas is one of the best bands around.
Still no dislikes?! Could Thomas Lang be the god that unites us all?! ❤😎
Also the jumping around the pedals I've seen that before by other drummers like George kollias and Derek Roddy, it's pretty awesome creativity! I had their DVDs 😁
T. Lange is from another planet.
This is another level drumming.
It’s about time!
Druminator is back 😁
I put a clinic on with TL in Stoke on Trent, England back in ‘04. The bloke was unreal. Speaks and plays like the sodding Terminator.
Top bloke. Great night.
FANTASTIC!!!
Wow! You really gotta have "happy feet" to play all these pedal parts.
Ha! Yes Nancy
Aaah, my dear compatriot. :) A true master of his craft.
Thomas did a GREAT breakdown of that exact kit for that session. If I remember correctly, from left to right it's a mini snare, little stack kind of thing, then one of his hihat pedals.
I'm not a drummer myself but I've been magnetically drawn to drums all my life, & spend so much time on UA-cam watching drum playthroughs. The creativity & human potential of drummers absolutely astounds me & gives me goosebumps watching these guys!
Also Andrew, I find your content super entertaining & informative & watching your channel has introduced me to bands I wouldn't have come across 👌
I do have a question for you, which drummer for you inspires you to drop everything & jump straight on the kit?
Love your inserts 🤗
The independence is off the charts. Thomas is a beast
This makes me think of Terry Bozzio with his work with various orchestra’s. You should definitely look up some of his more recent work. It’s wild how many different parts he plays all at once.
The one thing I've always noticed when listening to Thomas play is a big fat smile on my face while I listen. Something I noticed you doing as well. You just can't help it.
His stuff is just so awesome, I just smile from out pure astonishment and partially because I'll never do that. 😂
I took lessons with Thomas around 20 years back. Sometimes during lessons… all I could do was smile! Hah!
I have watched his Time video more times than I can count, and his limb independence is unworldly
At 52 yrs old Ive given up on trying to achieve this level and accept the fact that you cant hold a day job and still find enough time. At least we have the great Thomas Lang to enjoy. He plainly said years ago that nobody is born with it and constant pursuit is the only way.
Wow!! I’m speachless!!
Soooo good!
I didnt realize your a fellow kiwi well done mate and love this stuff , Thomas is really one of the very best, wish I could play like this !
Yo! 🇳🇿🙌
@@AndrewRooneyDrums going out for an afternoon surf north east coast will be jamming on my td30 this evening , yeh boy take care
Thomas Lang might actually be a cyborg built by Meinl to help sell their cymbals.
You really won't find many artists who do a better job of showing some of the unique characteristics of their product line.
Agree Warren! 🥁🤜
YES…. He’s playing ALL of it!!
The guy is a machine. His 32 note double kicks are insane and the percussion with his left foot ive been a drummer for 4o years and cannot even start to get close to this man......i hate him and love him
This needs to be in part-3
Thomas Lang is a wizard. I really would love for you to do a reaction video of a drummer named Matt Greiner from the band August Burns Red.
He's legendary
Another excellent drummer
Drumming from another star.
He's a beast!
🖖🏻🇫🇷😎🇫🇷😎🇫🇷🖖🏻
He is crazy good!!!
The always amazing Mr. Lang.
Yes Rob! 👌
Mr. Lang demonstrating that heels up or heels down is no longer a valid question.
Why is that phenomenal playing makes us lol? Andrew, I love your can't-help-yourself reactions.
loving his choice of those limited edition dw pedals too. those pedals alone probably are more then my car, my sisters car, my moms car and my dad's car put together
😂😂
He is so good
Whilst this is an unbelievable performance, does anyone else feel deflated when watching these virtuoso drummers? The feeling that you will never be able to achieve this level? I have been playing for 20 years, practicing every day………..not even close
Geez!!! Mr. Peart level drumming
Andrew Rooney finally knew or exploring the beast behind Thomas Lang!!!!!OH!! Gosh!!!!!
Yes Stamatis!🥁🤜
The Suppa hot fire cut in made me laugh for real. Thank you!
Just stumbled across an incredible drummer, Marcus Thomas. You should do a reaction video.
It's time for another Thomas Lang video and I recommend his performance of Mallory on the Hudson Music UA-cam channel.
Need to check out from the same LP "I DON'T KNOW YOU ANYMORE" really cool time signature. And another just having fun on "Donkey".
heels DOWN!
9:36 when the face matches the siren sound in the track.
Yeah bro,JUST RUN!!!!!
You’re right about hitting the drums off center. Someone did slow-mo shots of hitting drums and showed how the heads react. When you hit dead center the “ripple” of the head cancels out the tone or sound (resonance) you want. It’s on UA-cam somewhere.
Round two of suggesting Zildjian Live w/ Larnell Lewis. Will blow your mind and his solo at the end is insane.
Hes doing the work of two percussionists and one drummer, nothing is in the track either, I've seen the drum only video of this, hes truly mind blowing.
This is the guy Dream theater should have gone with
🙏
Calling him a monster doesn't feel adequate. Thomas Lang is an alien.
True Hunter!
My three inspirations are Mike Portnoy, Thomas Lang, and Mike Mangini...
3:01 No there are no "few extra little", he's doing it real-time.
I’m convinced that Thomas Lang isn’t a man. He’s a machine
He's the terminator!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums 😂😂 facts!!
Thomas Lang is the Arnold Schwarzenegger of drums
Phenomenal drumming as usual from Thomas L. I wonder what the reaction w/ Zoltan Chaney will be!? Hmm...
..and was the live drummer for the great FALCO
Oh wow. I did not know that
ua-cam.com/video/lTl7BllOYJc/v-deo.html
Thomas is not the best of the world but of the universe 😄
HAHA!
