I went to a John Tempesta drum clinic in Glasgow once, and the guy from the drum shop who was announcing him etc said he'd played drums for bands like Testament and ROD Zombie. For probably 10 years now, Rob Zombie has been Rod Zombie to me, Roderick Zombie.
I didn’t know the drummer of whitechaple burned down two churches, stabbed his band member in the head, ate a mans innards as a hail to satan, and regretted non of it. And he didn’t even have a lifetime sentence
tiny bit of sampled kick is fine IMO, it's when guys are just snapping everything to the grid and sample replacing all snare/kick/tom hits and then you see the "playthrough" and he's just tapping the fucking drums...
Rudi is so damn good. I met him in Ontario while he was playing with Threat Signal at a small bar. He was super confused why he had blisters lol super cool guy! So glad he's in Whitechapel🤘🤘
David is mindblowing - but in my opinion on this high level of music the discussion about who is the best makes not that much sense, because all of them have their own special skills/styles/techniques and more. But yeah, David Diepold is a beast👌🏼I’m excited for his upcoming work with obscura and how he’s gonna play the ridiculous drum parts of Sebastian Lanser😅but he will manage that😉
I have to say at 8.17 mins I had to pause the video to say’ fuck that snare sounds ridiculous! It’s so fuckn amazing sounding it’s crazy! So now I bloody have to change drum companies and go back to tama I suppose and get one of these maybe’ bloody ass biscuits tama why!
My wife said your voice is less annoying today, keep it up.
😂😂😂
Found the supposed to be pinned comment.
RÜDI the legend
I love how Rudi barely ever uploads but it's instantly forgiven the second you see where that time has gone. Incredible
You and Rüdy always pick the best cymbals to compliment the songs you’re playing, both absolute legends.
"420! Nice." 😂
“What am I gonna say about this guy, he’s perfect, he’s the best”…
"Looks Like Varg without the Racism" LMFAO
dude i was dyinggg
9:29 is so clutch that Craig just shut up and admired in awe! Great music, and great review!
I always thought he looked like Jesse pinkman from breaking bad 😂
Just binge watched the last four drops on here, glad you are back so I have a steady stream of things to waste my time on!

His drumming on Intronaut's 2020 release is unreal.
was good to see you out at WSS in glasgow last night hopeyou enjoyed your night
When you said he looked like Varg I cracked up laughing. I never put two and two together before. Haha
The Varg reference made me sub
"Freak Boi".........ACCURATE AF

That groove that starts at around 8.40min is fuckn tasty’ that alloy China sounds fuckn rad aswell bastard it!
the beginning was immaculate
Massive notes of maiden's 7th son at the end.
Been watching this guy for a solid 2 days and there’s one thing I know for sure… he needs a John Tempesta snare for free immediately!
You mean Varg Vickernes aka Count Grishnackh muuuahahahhaha
Imagine using an SM7B to mic your hi hat lmao
stay tuned for more on the sm7b mic sitch. is it a roast, is it praise, who knows.
Was at the underworld show on that tour!
From 8:02 onward is epic.
Wicked band
fwiw, I only used a tiny bit of kick sample on this 😉

slipknot one is fully natty!
Fuckn banger🤙🏼🔥
Now he has a signature drumstick made by Tama
That was great
Alex is a beast!!!
Rudi is so damn good. I met him in Ontario while he was playing with Threat Signal at a small bar. He was super confused why he had blisters lol super cool guy!
So glad he's in Whitechapel🤘🤘
I'm gonna need you to react to eugene ryabchenko The Betrayal playthrough plz. That or KROSIS - Duplicity (Official Drum Playthrough by Nathan Andrew)
Rudi is up there in the top bracket with eloy and tomas imo
\m/ alex is goat status\m/ !his attack is power by the tons\m/
I think David Diepold is just as good. Maybe even better.
no one gives david credit . nice to see another fan of his drum skills

This man has great taste in gear. Tama bell brass too.
I'm at an age now where I purely play for aesthetics.
Looks like Jessie from breaking bad. SCIONCE BISH
Alex is amazing. My favourite drummer is Travis Orbin who actually gave Alex lessons at one point.

How about those eyebrows! you do them yourself?
People have been calling him a "Varg-alike" for years. Nice!
Rudigod
Alex and Eloy Casagrande aew twins!
Am I the only one who got a Neil Peart vibe from his playing near the end of this song?
Derp
Rudi or Blake Richardson for best drummer of the era?
The "original link" is wrong bruh 🤣
IS IT THOUGH!?! (it was, thank you for letting us know, blame this fuckin idiot right here)
I;ll never get over that it looks like a black hole, that's awesome
Can we get a natty or not on those eyebrows? Gad damn.
pro park all day! vic firth are dog water (at least for me)
Second, lmfao.
