Not even sure if he's pro Trump. He such a memer that who knows. I personally would love if he did all his videos in a MAGA hat and a Hillary shirt. Btw, he said he smoked a lotta pot in High School and his favorite shirt was D.A.R.E. so obviously he loves to contradict things for humor. Keep it up!
I enjoyed this video on a whole new level because, it showed me a new appreciation for Lars. Larsisms may seem funny, but those techniques work surprisingly well on gems like these, and even give the song an edge that otherwise would have gone unnoticed. Thank you Josh for this and sorry I can't subscribe again, but the faithful always remain. Take care.

My apple watch just told me my heart rate went above 120bpm at 7:06. Amazing work!
Nickhead87 Dude chill. I'm not even American. The other dude made me laugh because he did exactly what my comment was making fun of just like you are. Calling people Nazis and shit. I never even said i liked Trump
Had to click and check out the comments just because of that thumbnail! Haha! I've seen you around other places on UA-cam but I had to see the reaction from the rest of your subscribers.
This is one of those songs that better represent #larsism. I remember hearing for the first time in 2008 and thinking "man this stuff is so typical Lars, how can one be so goddamn lazy", but at least it's a killer song on the overall.
Ugh,I missed TONS of your videos because youtube apparently decided that i didnt deserve to be notified xDD im back on track now ! I was wondering where the fuck your videos were in my feed xD hahahaha ! Hurraaaay ! :D
“Josh is truly an amazing guy folks. Believe me. Let me just tell you. Magnificent. Big league.” Great drumming as always tho lol. Long time fan of yours btw.
Y’all is too childish let this man just drum in peace and watch the damn video. And y’all who say he isn’t that good do better. He’s putting his art out into the world and you aren’t. Shut up and just enjoy the cover
Interesting, i took the time to read the comments, the anti trump comments are very offensive and rude, comments from people who support Trump are really positive without any offensive insults.
Wow people are so fucking mad lol josh you did a great thing here, what a beautiful sight, everyone getting mad over a hat meanwhile theyre getting punked, greatest troll ever
Given the current political climate, the reaction to this will be entertaining. I always think it's a bad idea to display your political views out in the open, especially when you're in the public eye. Since everyone is so divided, it'll only piss off people. That said, you and anyone else are free to flaunt their political beliefs. I personally think it's a bad idea until we somehow stop making everything "us vs them" and start working on coming together and making compromises that satisfy both sides of an issue. Like it was intended from the start. As the saying goes "United we stand, divided we fall". And America is sure as shit divided currently.
adam Human psychology mostly. People don't want to be wrong, let alone admit to being wrong when proven to be wrong. Also, the more firm the belief, the more they won't accept anything that goes against that belief. But, like any other psychological phenomenon, it can be changed. The hard part is getting hardcore idealists to hear opposing arguments. Harder still, is getting people to accept that they are wrong. If someone firmly believes that 4 + 4 = 2, you can prove to them 4 + 4 = 8 all you want, but they'll just call you a liar. It's an easy "fix" once we get to the point where more people are open to different ideas. But that's still gonna be decades, if not centuries, away.
Shallex Yeah, but that can be done without angering part of your audience. (I.E. Wearing stuff with the American flag or w/e) Like I said in my comment, I don't care he did it. I just don't understand why people take the risk of alienating part of their audience. Just seems too risky in the current political climate. And also pointless. Hell, even if a bunch of people who also support Trump sub just because of his hat, how many of those will actually watch his videos? Whereas people who were here for the drum covers and hate opposing opinions will leave. To me that just seems like a pointless risk. But that's just how I view stuff like this.
RockBandRS Confirmation Bias is a helluva thing. Even when people are proven to be wrong, they will still seek out further evidence to confirm their own views, even if those viewpoints are also proven to be wrong. It's a never ending cycle.
I like that Josh is making some people uncomfortable... hell, too many people are walking around feeling much too comfortable these days and spouting off things that are much worse than a simple hat.
Aaaah i see... It's because of the hat, that has nothing to do with the drum cover itself, hence why someone disliked the video. Nice logic right there!
+Max Rockatansky I actually think air drumming helped with my real drumming. I wasn't able to play drums for ages, but I still sometimes did the beats in my head. When I came back to drumming I was able to play stuff I couldn't play before. So I think sometimes doing air drumming and thinking about the drum beats in your head can actually help your drumming even if you don't drum.
Hahaha. This whole vid was just an epic troll. While I don't agree with the right, and cannot stand Trump for many reasons, I gotta tip my hat to you. Very well played.
MAGA! Making Drum Covers Great Again. Nice. This is the first I heard of you being hit up by Mike Portnoy. I bet you were super fucking pumped to have your favorite drummer let you know that he watches all your covers and is a fan of them.
Since everyone is talking about the hat, I'll just leave this here. I am from South America. I don't live in the US. I plan to move to the US, legally. I don't like the current president but neither did I like the other option. I don't care what Josh thinks but I care that he has his own opinion and I cherish that. I'm subbed for the drumming, but since I saw this whole political debate was open I decided to leave this here. The world keeps on turning and we're not yet able to choose to live in another one, so personally I think we just need to do our best to leave this one better than we found it. Keep it up people!
A mix: The red and the black For the greater good of god Sun n steel Sign of the cross The edge of darkness Fear of the dark An epic and obscure hour..
+Josh Steffen Nice you're doing the sign of the cross. I'm not a big maiden fan but I do like that song. Also i know it's unpopular but I actually much prefer the vocalist on sign of the cross over bruce.
I'd sure love to see some viewing statistics on this video ;) Solid drumming btw, but that's to be expected. Anything other than Metallica coming in the near future?
Not even sure if he's pro Trump. He such a memer that who knows. I personally would love if he did all his videos in a MAGA hat and a Hillary shirt.
Btw, he said he smoked a lotta pot in High School and his favorite shirt was D.A.R.E. so obviously he loves to contradict things for humor.
Keep it up!
Here is a truly wise human.
Also seen him wearing an infowars t-shirt lol
Josh Steffen oh, dope. Don't assume my gender.
Lucas Bruno exactly, I'm Mexican and hace a MAGA cap and a Trump flag for the luls

My apple watch just told me my heart rate went above 120bpm at 7:06. Amazing work!
I don't even care who you support. I just find it hilarious how offended people are getting over a hat. Awesome drumming btw
Exactly! It's so easy..
BigBoysClimbOnBigRing actually the child separation has been going on since Obama, so your have no argument there.
BigBoysClimbOnBigRing
Lol ok
Nickhead87
Dude chill. I'm not even American. The other dude made me laugh because he did exactly what my comment was making fun of just like you are. Calling people Nazis and shit. I never even said i liked Trump
>wears meme hat
>everyone starts a fuckfest
This is why you're the best Josh
Everyone's talking all about the hat and I'm just here like "This guy's drumstick is upside down"
Pro Trump, Pro Hillary, Pro whatever?
Naaah.
I'm Pro-Josh.
Fuck the Haters. You are still the BEST DRUMMER ON UA-cam PERIOD!!
you just became one of my favourite drummers

Damn those drums sound really good
Had to click and check out the comments just because of that thumbnail! Haha! I've seen you around other places on UA-cam but I had to see the reaction from the rest of your subscribers.
Amazing cover as always man. Kept noticing the wingnut on that splash dancing away 😂
Lmao I love the edits you do, keep them up please
sick cover dude. Keep it up
lol at everyone getting upset who apparently never noticed the infowars sticker on the hi-hat stand or the shirts in previous vids
Exactly.
Low info fuckwits don’t care til they see trump stuff, then it’s tolerance time!!!
Hi im 13 and these drums only video help out alot keep up the amazing drumming man😊😁🇺🇸
This is one of those songs that better represent #larsism. I remember hearing for the first time in 2008 and thinking "man this stuff is so typical Lars, how can one be so goddamn lazy", but at least it's a killer song on the overall.
Ugh,I missed TONS of your videos because youtube apparently decided that i didnt deserve to be notified xDD im back on track now ! I was wondering where the fuck your videos were in my feed xD hahahaha ! Hurraaaay ! :D
*B A S E D*
Happy 4th of July!
great hat!
0:21 is there a goldfish buddy?
Im pretty sure he supports those drums better than anyone else. \m/
I was wondering why so many dislikes on a drums only video. Then I saw the thumbnail. Well memed.
Josh you should cover helpless!! that would be awesome. a lot of action in that one...
Bring back the double bass cam.... oh now I get it 🙈
My backing track. Thanks!!
“Josh is truly an amazing guy folks. Believe me. Let me just tell you. Magnificent. Big league.”
Great drumming as always tho lol. Long time fan of yours btw.
You should cover some Cog, Josh! They are Australia's greatest offering of the past 20 years, next to Karnivool.
That thumbnail had me dying
Pegaaaaa tooop lembrar-se bateras unidos jamais será vencidos ☕🎶👍👀🇧🇷
Ulrichation of the Continual Lars please?
I think people will get a new respect for Lars if they watch and really listen
Brandon Perkins agreed
as a drummer i think lars is amazing because he doesn’t go overboard and matches his drums perfectly with the guitars
you could play the song called the war inside of mushroomhead
Hey Josh, how about... Boston - Lars Than a Feeling
At 7:00, that's when you know you've really made it
Josh the real fans don't mind the hat we love your content! Keep up the amazing work.
You should definitely do The Scheme off the newish Primus album. 👌
Y’all is too childish let this man just drum in peace and watch the damn video. And y’all who say he isn’t that good do better. He’s putting his art out into the world and you aren’t. Shut up and just enjoy the cover
Mike Portnoy commented on your video!!!! Your fuckin sic Josh, love your videos bud!!!!
He's holding his left drumstick upside down
Yes Maga and great drumming
BUILD THE WALL!!!!!!!!!!! MAGA!!!!!!
Stirring the pot! Good on you Josh!
The hat’s whatever, but the birther shit at the end? Cmon
How about some Children of Bodom covers!!! Thank you for the upload. Keep on beating to your drumbeat
Interesting, i took the time to read the comments, the anti trump comments are very offensive and rude, comments from people who support Trump are really positive without any offensive insults.
Epic power level reveal
Wow people are so fucking mad lol josh you did a great thing here, what a beautiful sight, everyone getting mad over a hat meanwhile theyre getting punked, greatest troll ever

Lurch Murphy Yeah. Confirmation bias and Google. One of the worst combinations to ever exist.
I like that Josh is making some people uncomfortable... hell, too many people are walking around feeling much too comfortable these days and spouting off things that are much worse than a simple hat.
Great stuff!
Nice hat, keep it up dude
Amon Amarth father of the wolf
What's with the dislikes? Love you Josh! Keep hitting those drums! \m/
America is quite polarized.
Aaaah i see... It's because of the hat, that has nothing to do with the drum cover itself, hence why someone disliked the video. Nice logic right there!
based
You’re about to find out how “tolerant” liberals really are.
Oh, irony.
Hopefully a Stormy Daniels shirt on the next one :)
america great again with this video!!!!!! south america her o/
What type of drumsticks are you using?
Good video!
An amazing drummer who happens to like President Trump. Holly shit my new favorite UA-camr!!!!!!!
Question. Does being a guitar player help with your drumming? Thanks Josh.
Maybe? I always say drumming helps guitar playing.
+Max Rockatansky
I actually think air drumming helped with my real drumming. I wasn't able to play drums for ages, but I still sometimes did the beats in my head. When I came back to drumming I was able to play stuff I couldn't play before.

changed the thumbnail to golden grills I see ;)
Who gives a fuck who he voted for...were here to watch his badass drum covers. He can wear whatever he wants!!!!! Great cover josh!!
Nice job😍😍😍
Why care about his hat? You came here to listen to Josh play drums. Stop getting pissed about what his political views may be, and watch the video.
Wtf I love Josh now!
TheKnightBlade4 *TRUMP IS SHIT*
You forgot the word "The"
TheKnightBlade4 real fans would’ve loved him already
Hahaha. This whole vid was just an epic troll.
While I don't agree with the right, and cannot stand Trump for many reasons, I gotta tip my hat to you. Very well played.
Nice hat my man
Rockin 'lone 😆
Can you do sulfur slipknot
Love the thumbnail !
MAGA! Making Drum Covers Great Again. Nice. This is the first I heard of you being hit up by Mike Portnoy. I bet you were super fucking pumped to have your favorite drummer let you know that he watches all your covers and is a fan of them.
I hear a little bit of guitars at the very beggining
Should cover devil in the deep dark ocean by nightwish
Death-The Exorcist???
It's better when you play the music in your mind
Eres la verga \m/

What do u plan on working on next after this album?
Me and my brother are doing an hour-long iron maiden jam.
Josh Steffen.. that's so awesome which album are you doing, or are you doing a bunch of songs mixed together
A mix:
The red and the black
For the greater good of god
Sun n steel
Sign of the cross
The edge of darkness
Fear of the dark
An epic and obscure hour..
Josh Steffen sweet can wait.. happy 4th and #makedruminggreatagain
+Josh Steffen
Nice you're doing the sign of the cross. I'm not a big maiden fan but I do like that song. Also i know it's unpopular but I actually much prefer the vocalist on sign of the cross over bruce.
Bha venho tu toca muito
Critical acclaim cover please
lol memes. came for the music, stayed to laugh at America's politics.
No, Jokes aside, great playing man, i get hypnotised watching.
One cappy Boi in the back
Troll Master Level 5000!

The comment section is gonna be so butt hurt over a fucking cap lmao.
Nice drumming, Josh. As always!
It's getting rough
I'd sure love to see some viewing statistics on this video ;)
Solid drumming btw, but that's to be expected. Anything other than Metallica coming in the near future?
6 live Maiden songs.
You kinda look like Wayne from _Wayne's World_ in the thumbnail.
maga hell yeah
Happy Freedom Day 👌👌👌🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
