I love that he is able to add soo much filler and extra stuff but without making it sound to busy and taking away from the other instruments and vocals
Your reactions are some of the best. His feet work an hand work. How he just multi tasks so well. His left hand on the snare just effortless. Like you've said many times. He runs off of batteries. And has 4 brains. Enjoy what you do.
Holy Jesus! That is in-human! I was waiting for him to catch fire and his eyes to glow cuz that was some Super Sayan stuff right there! I agree Colby, there is nobody better, the man is Legendary!!!!
I saw this video a year ago when it first came out and have been waiting for a drum reaction. I'm old enough that I've been around since Metallica started. This guy needs to be their drummer.
Thx for sharing this man 🤜It's not just that he plays everything faster. No, not at all. He just plays it his style, he makes every band sound like they've had a rejuvenation and it gives the songs so much more life in a positive sense. If you think the drums in Toxicity can't come up with a different groove, you MUST hear his version, this man is simply incredible.
All hes versions has so much taste and they always compliments all the othet instruments and vocals. Hes not only high skilled drummer. He is also the best making arrangements for drums and thats not easy at all. Drums can make or brake a song. He will take good to amayzing.
You can practice to be good drummer. But the groove and feel comes from inside and can not be learned to the highest level. Some you can learn for sure, buy he has it beyond the level you can get only by training.
I’m a 50 yr old metal head and have listened to this song hundreds of times. El kills it. Makes a killer song step it up. You’re right, this is so good, it should be illegal. 👌🏻🤘🏻
if you think you have seen all the drumming skills of EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO, who is wrong, he always shows a new increase in his ability. Colby, I appreciate and love your explanation of such ambitious talents, please go on like this 👍👍👍
I think my favorite video by el Estapario would have to be the Mario Brothers theme. Only because his flawless transition from a one handed gravity blast on the snare to a double stroke roll with 2 hands. He doesn't miss a single beat. The guy is just amazing.
Sorry but estepario is on another level, he plays slipknot, Metallica in his sleep. He has worked hard as a child and has developed some serious skills. No comparison. Legend in my books!!!!!!
I'm not a big Metallica fan like I used to be, but damn this guy makes as you said, sound so much better the way he plays this song Colby. You're a great drummer yourself my friend, could you keep up with him...😂
I would love to hear what EES would do to BURN by Deep Purple. It's already fast and full enough that I couldn't even comprehend what this mad genius monster would do to it. EES... Boston's "Long Time" and others would give EES something different to chew on. I wish I could be there in Spain just watching him practice and build neurons inside one of his five brains, one for each limb and the last one to breathe, talk, look around etc. lol. He literally plays FOUR different instruments totally independent from each other but each playing a part to the same song.
I play guitar.... cant play drums at all!!... however I know a good drummer when I see/hear one!!.. this dude is ridiculously good!!! ... quite possibly the drummer on the planet!!!
Er macht das so easy. Wie ne Maschine 🤘Lars kannte die Technik in den 80er nicht .you make a great Job.and explain good.sry i try to write in spanish,deutsch and englisch. Salut from Deutschland
Battery is one of greatest metal song ever recorded. Lars played it well when they recorded it. Lars is not greatest drummer, but it's all about how this song is written and played together. Please don't make bad comments of Metallica or Lars. Have you filled stadiums 40 years man? No you haven't, neither is mr Siperiano. So, it's not always about 101% skill, there's many more factors to make song great. Agree? Mikael from Finland 🇫🇮
The most with the less. ¿If you see his battery before he plays do you think that it’s possible to play so? Higher than perfect. Speed and precision together. Every note in it’s place. Awesome.
Back in the day.. . Lars probably played it live this good. It's been 30 years, but he was sick live back in the day. El Sib has the most amazing groove on any song!
He really stayed true to the song this time, he could have one handed it. Single hand blast beats, triple beaters, three sticks? No. All of the accents just made it better. This one was for the fans and the artists.
Oh come on colby, anyone can play like him.All you have to do is practise 33 hours a day for 2 thousand years straight.Thats all.Seriously the best that has ever been.Eloy has nuthin on him.His musical interpretation is spot on as is his speed and timing, limb independence,etc.Like I said,the BEST thats ever been.Cant wait for the interview. You too ?
Hey I asked about this before, but why does he use such a limited kit? Wouldn’t it be insane to see him use a rig as big as Alex Van Halen or maybe Nigel Glocker or Jeff Porcaro? Can you imagine the mind-blowing possibilities?
To me it's more amazing that he can create these supreme drummings with such tiny set, using all of it's potential instead of adding more thingamagicas.
He said in an interview in Spanish that his problem is not playing fast, but to play fast and hard. And that struggled to achieve that in Saratoga (Spanish heavy metal band). Archie is fast but we has no power....
It took 37 YEARS of this song before, you got this!! Sorry, but this song is perfect just the way it was recorded. Yes, this is AMAZING. But 37 years... thank you LARS!
I'd heavily recommend people check out a drummer on UA-cam called Ralph Alexander. Guy's only got 6 videos and 3k subscribers but the three videos he's put out recently are fucking awesome. The Aphex Twin and Bjork covers specifically.... Really musical drumming that adds something to the track - like El Estepario Siberiano's covers....
Well back then we didn't have the double and triple bass drum peddles ... ..bet if lars had them back then he would've played it this way ......I'm not knocking El Estrpario .....but you have to give Lars a break with what technology we had back then to compare to what we have now in the drumming world ......Lars ....El Estrpario and Zoltan Chaney are the three bad azz dummers in my book ....When this album came out while I was in highschool was bad azz awesome was a new type of metal music...speed metal......that changed the heavy metal world .......some saying El Estrpario changed the drumming world ,,like Eddie Van Halen changed the guitar world......would've loved it Eddie Van Halen was still alive,,,him and El Estrpario hooked up to do some music together......now that would've been awesome to see and hear.
Ok …..that was fucken insane. The order. Estepario God Beast, need I say more. I’m just lost for words. The sing now is reinvented and you just can’t unheard that. Thank you ❤
I am a metallica fan AND an El Estepario Siberiano fan! The combo is fantastic!
Lars went like "Minecraft" if this guy is newest
GTA!
Less is more!
Once again he takes drumming and turns it into an extreme sport. Respect.
I've been hoping he would cover this song. It's exactly what I expected,nothing but excellence as usual. Thanks colby for the content
I learn from this guy every video. Thanks I'm 63 and this guy shocked me.
This guy just turned into a God mode, he's insanely a drummer star✨️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love that he is able to add soo much filler and extra stuff but without making it sound to busy and taking away from the other instruments and vocals
Incredible as always, it's a pleasure to watch him as always, and really enjoy your running commentary as always Colby!
SWEET!!!!!!! I could listen to you play all day !!!!!! Hope you stay in good health so you can enjoy what you love doing.
Your reactions are some of the best. His feet work an hand work. How he just multi tasks so well. His left hand on the snare just effortless. Like you've said many times. He runs off of batteries. And has 4 brains. Enjoy what you do.
Holy Jesus! That is in-human! I was waiting for him to catch fire and his eyes to glow cuz that was some Super Sayan stuff right there!
I agree Colby, there is nobody better, the man is Legendary!!!!
His cover of Blinding Lights was my favorite, until I saw this. He's a true phenom!!!
Just when you think you've seen everything..then this dude plays the drums like a fukin machine ..best drummer ever
I saw this video a year ago when it first came out and have been waiting for a drum reaction. I'm old enough that I've been around since Metallica started. This guy needs to be their drummer.

I can listening the last double kick over an over again. It's sounds like a old diesel engine in 2500rpm. 🤘😄
I like old (pre-black album) Metallica. I love watching you analyze this wonderful musicians. I, also, are a fantastic drummer as well Colby!!!!!
🤘🏻
These wonderful musicians!
All hes versions has so much taste and they always compliments all the othet instruments and vocals. Hes not only high skilled drummer. He is also the best making arrangements for drums and thats not easy at all. Drums can make or brake a song. He will take good to amayzing.

Great content as per usual Colby 🤟🏼👍🏻
INCREDIBLE, JUST DISCOVERED THIS GUY A MONTH AGO.
Sorry but estepario is on another level, he plays slipknot, Metallica in his sleep. He has worked hard as a child and has developed some serious skills. No comparison. Legend in my books!!!!!!
I'm not a big Metallica fan like I used to be, but damn this guy makes as you said, sound so much better the way he plays this song Colby. You're a great drummer yourself my friend, could you keep up with him...😂
his Knights of Cydonia cover was my favourite however the recent '4 Pedal' piece is absolutely nuts!
Love this dude! Such a performer!!
The man is a machine. His timing is just incredible.
Dude, it's revolting how easy he makes it look. THis is the ultimate Battery version. My man, this is one of my favorite songs, aside from "One"
The dude is just a BEAST!
One of the best drummers I have ever watched on video, and I do follow him
I would love to hear what EES would do to BURN by Deep Purple. It's already fast and full enough that I couldn't even comprehend what this mad genius monster would do to it. EES... Boston's "Long Time" and others would give EES something different to chew on.

I play guitar.... cant play drums at all!!... however I know a good drummer when I see/hear one!!.. this dude is ridiculously good!!! ... quite possibly the drummer on the planet!!!
This guy is soooooo insane!!! By far new fav drummer
As a guitar 🎸 player I hear he can make any drums sound good and he can make do with what's available that is phenomenal.
Hands down...the best drummer there is!
Er macht das so easy. Wie ne Maschine 🤘Lars kannte die Technik in den 80er nicht .you make a great Job.and explain good.sry i try to write in spanish,deutsch and englisch. Salut from Deutschland
I am speechless.
This guy shreds i ❤ slipknot one he does one handed he does another slipknot blind folded its totally insane🤘
This guy's past next level, but a few levels beyond!!
The god of drums 🥁 fantastic 👏👏👏I'm from 🇵🇹
This guy is in the upper echelon of drummers! I’m talking top tier!
Many songs that before didn't catch my attention now I love them because El Estepario had covered them
You have to check out him playing. Let's get Ready for this
So, how would the song sound w/EES drumming and another lead guitar?
This guy takes drumming to a whole new level ,,,,wow
BRUTAAALL
Battery is one of greatest metal song ever recorded. Lars played it well when they recorded it. Lars is not greatest drummer, but it's all about how this song is written and played together.

Favourite? His Tool Cover. Impossible. 😮
The most with the less. ¿If you see his battery before he plays do you think that it’s possible to play so? Higher than perfect. Speed and precision together. Every note in it’s place. Awesome.
Every time I see a video of El Estepario I catch myself in awe and grinning like a idiot
This is insane 🎉🎉🎉
Back in the day.. . Lars probably played it live this good. It's been 30 years, but he was sick live back in the day. El Sib has the most amazing groove on any song!
My brother showed me this guy 😮 I think he’s the best drummer to walk the earth
His motor skills are insane
He really stayed true to the song this time, he could have one handed it. Single hand blast beats, triple beaters, three sticks? No. All of the accents just made it better. This one was for the fans and the artists.
we are here!
Metallica fan here! El Estepario fan too!
My favorite video by him is his one handed cover of Through the Fire and Flames by Dragonforce
subscribed because of him and all he does is my fav....ps i dont play drums, thats how good he is.
80's and 90's Metallica is 80 or 90 times better than newer stuff. Well done sir.
My favorite video is the Godzilla cover, Eminem and El Estepario make a perfect tandem!
That was incredible.
Esterpario fan . All of them
He is a master
Oh come on colby, anyone can play like him.All you have to do is practise 33 hours a day for 2 thousand years straight.Thats all.Seriously the best that has ever been.Eloy has nuthin on him.His musical interpretation is spot on as is his speed and timing, limb independence,etc.Like I said,the BEST thats ever been.Cant wait for the interview. You too ?
....the word "fast" comes to mind....
Dude is awesome
He kills it every time I have yet to see him fail
9th Wonder of the WORLD....
Lars can be the worst, but fans love him. By the way this cover is in another level 🥁 🔥
We’re right here ❤
the Jackson video 🥰
You guys should be friends by now . All of your videos are his .
He is super talented, but some songs belong the way they do. It sounds better. Still very impressive. I can't help but be in awe!
Drummers dont exist without guitar
Wow
This.. is.... Banksy repainting the Sistien Chapel and ensuring he doesn't deviate too much but still has a red balloon! Perfection
In my opinion, El Estepario is superior than Lars Ulrich.
😂😂😂😂 comparing a racing horse with a chiken, Lars is in the most iconic metal banda ever, but he's skills are the same as a rock
I'm a better drumer than Lars... And I don't even know how to play drums...
Well, uhhh, yea. That comment is as obvious as saying the sun is hot.
No shit Sherlock!
That’s not an opinion that’s fact, Lars is terrible
Hey I asked about this before, but why does he use such a limited kit? Wouldn’t it be insane to see him use a rig as big as Alex Van Halen or maybe Nigel Glocker or Jeff Porcaro? Can you imagine the mind-blowing possibilities?
To me it's more amazing that he can create these supreme drummings with such tiny set, using all of it's potential instead of adding more thingamagicas.
duality video is amazing
A-Ah cover also Gorrilaz
The G.O.A.T has done it again
He is a fricking machine 😂😂
HERE🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻Sooooo good…oh Larsss 😂😂😂🤘🏻…this guy ..jeez
When are we going to see ANY of the orignal drummers of his songs actually comment? I'm still waiting.
El Estepraio is definently redefining drum playing. It would be awesome to hear what Neal Peart would have to say about his covers!
Have you done any reactions videos of sina drums?
Probably the best drummer of all time
Lo mejor de lo mejor❤
He definitely makes lars look like a novice 😅
WOOOOOW
Holy shit snacks! He's a beast....
I wanna see him cover Austin archey from lorna shore!
He said in an interview in Spanish that his problem is not playing fast, but to play fast and hard. And that struggled to achieve that in Saratoga (Spanish heavy metal band). Archie is fast but we has no power....
My favorite video?....All of them
It took 37 YEARS of this song before, you got this!! Sorry, but this song is perfect just the way it was recorded. Yes, this is AMAZING. But 37 years... thank you LARS!
🔥🔥🔥
I'd heavily recommend people check out a drummer on UA-cam called Ralph Alexander. Guy's only got 6 videos and 3k subscribers but the three videos he's put out recently are fucking awesome.

THE DRUM GOD!!
Ok …..that was fucken insane. The order.
Estepario
God
Beast, need I say more. I’m just lost for words. The sing now is reinvented and you just can’t unheard that. Thank you ❤
