Any other drummers here notice like at 0:58 that his kick drum mic cable just disappears into an unported (no hole) reso Tama head? And that the Tama logo never really moves with him stomping the kick? It's known he rarely uses a reso head on the kick in the studio, so did Tama Green screen one in post production to get their logo more visible? It's weird....
@@soulintake Go watch the other video they did few days ago. You can see the drums from another perspective and there are actually the resos and portholes. In this video they captured it weirdly
@guillaumepoulin3522 I've watched that performance probably 100 plus times now, still blows me away. Austin Archey from Lorna Shore is another one that has a few playthrough videos I'm still trying to find the lower half of my jaw after watching too.
You watch this and you realise that even though some drum covers of Art of Dying on UA-cam are really good, the groove this man has is unmatched. The little intricacies, the power and the nuance this man displays together, is something completely missing from those covers, and no wonder why, it's because this man is one of the greatest ever to do it.
@@Tekner436what exactly is an air right hand fill? i know what he's doing, i know what you're talking about, like i see it. but what's the purpose for that? humor me im a bass player and never seen that
He's a beast on the drums, one of the best, but when it comes to weight and pressure on the notes, I think the drummer who has the heaviest grip is Eloy Casagrande from SEPULTURA
@@alihijazi4451 I think I head him say somewhere that he also plays for an hour straight as a "warm up" right before their shows (that's why he's sweaty from the beginning). This guy is a mad man.
@@sempriniaftershave9825 hell yeah!!! I saw them on tour with slipknot. They only got in like 5 or 6 songs so I was a little disappointed but still totally stoked to see Gojira! That’s actually why we went to begin with. But yeah they had full energy regardless of having an opener slot.
@@sempriniaftershave9825hell yea. That tour this summer was freaking amazing, one the best I've seen overall. Every band absolutely destroyed from top to bottom
@@Dry7123 like I said in a comment below, I was waiting to listen Into the storm, I consider it like the Best song live with all your fans putting his fist in the air! Haha I don't have an idea why they're not playing that song, but, would be so amazing.
@@CykGameplays Haake has his own style, Mario has his own. Both god tier drummers doing slightly different music. Haake could play this in his own way, just like Mario could nail Bleed or Clockworks if he wanted to. But whats the point, music is not a competition
I love the aggression that he plays the 4/4 rock groove with. The complex stuff is incredible but his energy and precision sells even the simpler things. What a beast.
Every broken ass tempo song needs that 4/4 groove part so you can play with a demonic face while headbanging. I don't even drum, I just write, but I can relate because I do that to my own programed drums! Haha.
Mario is doing things on drums that are unmatched. He is a massive inspiration in the industry and to his fans alike! Their music and his drumming specifically has absolutely changed/saved my life!! So grateful to this man and Gojira’s music!!
If thats the case why is he repeat "best metal drummer" winner? @Etienne.6329 Watch his solos "Cyclone", "minotaur" or "movement" and go find a drummer than can do the same. I'll be waiting.
So imaginative, creative and the sheer power! Breakdowns on this track are SAVAGE and the pocket DAF. You are a force to be reckoned with, Mr. Duplantier 👏 One of the best! Oh, and the kit is beautiful, too
Flawless… That time signature and double pedal from the intro are mind blowing. Fun fact, I was able to see Gojira perform live in front row and was able to hug Mario after the show. Such a wholesome moment as a drummer.. He seems to be such a cool dude..
The first groove with the constant ride bell always makes me think of a train. Which sounds to me like I'm on the rails and the train is coming to hit me hard (just like the song does).
Saw gojira live last year and was absolutely blown away. He sounded so clean. On top of that he was wailing so hard on the drums, he cracked like 30 sticks through out the set. And tossed them out to the audience mid song, while grabbing another at the same time. Never missing a beat.
I love Mario and Gojira! They're so creative, humble, socially aware folks... I'm glad they've made it this far and that the whole world knows of their music, they completely deserve it. Sending hugs!
Power, precision, groove, finesse, flawless time. Mario has it all. One of the greatest in Metal. This is also one of the best-looking drum playthrough videos out there. The Strongest name in drums with one of the strongest behind the craft. Well done, Mario and Tama!
Since i saw the live performance at Vieilles Charrues Festival in 2010 i was hooked on the song, the band and Mario's drumming. I needed this drumvid. Mario is a beast and without a doubt one of the most influential drummers out there.
I only recently found this band and have been listening to them for the past couple years or so. The thing that struck me the most with Gojira was how hard the drummer goes, such talent.
Those ghost hits at 2:02 are crazy!! What a master. So much control, it's phenomenal. But I don't want to leave out the person who did the lighting, because it's equally as beautiful ❤
This is Mario's masterpiece, this has gotta be one of the hardest songs ever written for drums, and he played it live perfectly on their live CD for this album. Crazy.
Mario is the perfect drummer for a band with a name and sound as immense and monstrous as Gojira. Complete power, discipline, and control. Just incredible!
Mate saw them in 2018 when they toured with Mastodon. Fffffaaaarrrrkkk. I can honestly say that in my lifetime of 45 years on this big rock we on I've only been proper speechless 4 times, seeing Gojira live was the 4th. I'd go as far as to say actually spiritual. Absolute truth.
So couple of years ago my brother bought us a ticket to go see Deftones. Somehow, because of covid, it had to be rescheduled. It's funny because gojira wasn't on the first list!! Great late birthday from my brother. Watching gojira open up for deftones was the best thing ever. Im a drummer and ive been following gojira for awhile not the biggest metal fan but ill listen to it every once in awhile. What a great experience seeing Mario and abe cunningham drummer from deftones seeing in that night. 😱🤯🤘🏽
What the shit?!? How did I miss this?! I'm surprised the camera was able to survive being that close to this level of awesome power, and that Mario still managed to somehow keep his shirt on!
Thank you, Mario, for sharing your skills with us. It is an absolute joy to watch you work. Thank you for the years of incredible music and dedication to your craft.
It‘s not only the question : can you play it First you have to find the style and more than that do u hit the drums like him and have the same sound I‘d seen six six yesr old drummer very technical but no real sound Soorry for my english I‘m French Beside that do you have the sound on your drums its a big part of the artistc approach
Homeboy’s creativity, playing to the song, sitting in the pocket, technical chops, accuracy, and endurance are on a different fucking level. Favorite metal drummer of all time, right here.
Um... what??? The way of all flesh is WIDELY known to have one of the best mixed, engineered and produced metal drum sounds of all time. Everything is so crisp and clear. What on earth are you talking about...?
@@jonnyj. You fell into the false dichotomy of assuming that I said all their other drums sound bad because I highlighted that this one is good. It's possible to think that this drum sound is better than their other records, while still thinking their other records still have one of the best mixed, and engineered drums sounds
Glad this drummer is getting recognition. This is exactly my style. This and shooting star is what really put me on. Tremendous vibe. Fittingly brutal.
Without a doubt one of the best drummers to ever do it. Mario is an absolute creative genius, could watch him play all day.
yes, His timing and rhythm is insane
Unbelievable feel too. Power on the big back beat is crushing
I second this motion
Username checks out
Lol
The way he just flawlessly goes into that 45/4 beat is incredible.
Yogev Gabay's video explaining the rhythms of this song blew my mind 🤯
@@alihijazi4451 I have watched that video probably 8 times now and tried to drum along with it and I STILL get lost. INSANE
45/4?
@@dh1380 yup, it's the time signature of the song's intro. Pretty crazy!
@@alihijazi4451So just ten bars of 4 beats, and one with 5?
PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE!!!?? I literally want to see Mario play every song in the gojira library!! AMAZING!!!
Esoteric Surgery pls
He does!
Same here
I would kill for Heaviest Matter Of The Universe
I agree but why was that question lol. No question, we need more mario everywhere all the time lol.
1:09 the crispiness of that fill
Yeah very crispy 🔥🔥🔥
Sounded like a helicopter
That shit is SLIPPERY. He's just dragging the sticks around like they will autofill.
Already have a feeling this is one of those videos people are going to be coming back to for ages. Absolute master of his craft.

This video is like the Danny Carrey Pneuma one. You see how much of beasts these guys are

that air right hand fill in 2:01 is the best thing i've seen in my entire life
so sick, i've found that helps a lot actually for rests on one hand
So deep into the groove, also at 2:47 again 😮
I can feel how desparately his right hand wants to hit something 😂
@@Tekner436what exactly is an air right hand fill? i know what he's doing, i know what you're talking about, like i see it. but what's the purpose for that? humor me im a bass player and never seen that
@@niveKOnBass basically just a rest
I've waited 15 years to see footage like this of this song. Holy fuck. My soul neeeeeeded this.
Me too man lol still can’t play that shit on drums lol
Heaviest drummer of the universe
Heard of Dale Crover…..
lol. 😂
I see what you did there
@@JulienGrynberg You certainly didn't hear the song
He's a beast on the drums, one of the best, but when it comes to weight and pressure on the notes, I think the drummer who has the heaviest grip is Eloy Casagrande from SEPULTURA
Seeing this live was unbelievable. One of the tightest drummers of all time for sure
He said in a podcast that he practices for 3h every single day, no matter what. What a beast!
@@alihijazi4451 I think I head him say somewhere that he also plays for an hour straight as a "warm up" right before their shows (that's why he's sweaty from the beginning). This guy is a mad man.
@@alihijazi4451yeah, the downbeat podcast with Craig Reynolds!
Almost on the same level as the octopus, danny carey
The power he’s hitting those drums with tho! Quite impressive to keep up that energy.
I saw them this summer and he kept up that energy the entire show. He beat the shit out of those drums for an hour lol
@@sempriniaftershave9825 hell yeah!!! I saw them on tour with slipknot. They only got in like 5 or 6 songs so I was a little disappointed but still totally stoked to see Gojira! That’s actually why we went to begin with. But yeah they had full energy regardless of having an opener slot.

@@sempriniaftershave9825hell yea. That tour this summer was freaking amazing, one the best I've seen overall. Every band absolutely destroyed from top to bottom
@@sempriniaftershave9825 oh that’s incredible!!!! I bet that was a super fun show!
This song is literally story even without lyrics. It is amazing that even the drums convey the gravity of the songs meaning.
The art of drumming on display!
That snare at 2:01 always get me...
Do more of these with Mario we would pay for the whole Gojira's discography lol
Same!
Came here to agree
YYYYEEEEEEEEEESSSS THE REFRAIN ON IT MAKES ME BUUUUUST
My god I didnt think that adding expression to a drum play was possible in a great way but mario nailed it
Same!!!
One of my favorite moments on 2023 was being present in a concert while Mario played this song 🖤
I'm so happy they brought this back to the set list, meshuggah with bleed too. 🤘
@@Dry7123 like I said in a comment below, I was waiting to listen Into the storm, I consider it like the Best song live with all your fans putting his fist in the air! Haha I don't have an idea why they're not playing that song, but, would be so amazing.
confirmo
Ridiculously well composed drum track played flawlessly and powerfully. Just killer.
Mario is one of a kind!…and also this re issue snare, killer combo! 💥
The reissue is a sexual beast
Well Haake kan do it too haha

Still my go to Gojira album after all these years, unparalleled imo!
It is just an absolutely insane album
You know!!!!!!!! 🤟🏻
hard agree. the way of all flesh is a masterpiece
Their best album.
YES
The precision and the power he plays with is just mind-blowing.
There is nobody who drums like him. And God damn he hits those drums with so much power
Except… literally every single modern metal drummer ? You know. Literally all of them
@Etienne.6329 I think that's a hot take there my guy 😂
If thats the case why is he repeat "best metal drummer" winner? @Etienne.6329
Watch his solos "Cyclone", "minotaur" or "movement" and go find a drummer than can do the same. I'll be waiting.
@@jordanjoestar8839because those idiots don't consider TOOL to be metal?
This already is a legendary performance
So imaginative, creative and the sheer power! Breakdowns on this track are SAVAGE and the pocket DAF. You are a force to be reckoned with, Mr. Duplantier 👏 One of the best! Oh, and the kit is beautiful, too
If mario was shirtless the drum playthrough will be full song
He's barely using 24% of his power
Flawless… That time signature and double pedal from the intro are mind blowing. Fun fact, I was able to see Gojira perform live in front row and was able to hug Mario after the show. Such a wholesome moment as a drummer.. He seems to be such a cool dude..
omg youre so luckyyy 😭😭 i wish i could hug him
I've never seen a drummer have to put so much effort into their breathwork. Aaamazing
dear lord those drums are just beautiful. the heft, the coloring, the hardware, the sizes... damn sweet kit!
I always love watching Mario because he's INTO IT. He really goes at it and drums with his whole being. Freaking awesome.
the way he dominates abstract poly rhythm is just absurd, I freaking love this guy!
The first groove with the constant ride bell always makes me think of a train. Which sounds to me like I'm on the rails and the train is coming to hit me hard (just like the song does).
This guy is mental! Such smooth and precise drumming
I have no idea why, but those syncopated hits on the snare at 1:30 are probably my favorite part of this song
It’s the fill we were least expecting and it adds to the heaviness
Mine too
A simple measure of triplets, only playing the lefts, airing the rights. Easier than you think.
How is their music so genius and cerebral, and so primal at the same time? It's like if someone could make you cry with a TED talk.
Saw gojira live last year and was absolutely blown away. He sounded so clean. On top of that he was wailing so hard on the drums, he cracked like 30 sticks through out the set. And tossed them out to the audience mid song, while grabbing another at the same time. Never missing a beat.

Had the honor of being able to see this played live last year. It was probably one of the best live performances I’ve ever seen in my life.
Absolutely insane playing, it's like 3 people in the same head, one controls the left hand, one the right and one the kicks.
The best drummer and the best Gojira song!
One of the best metal drummers, not only fast bus also very creative

Fun fact, Gojira just played during the olympic opening ceremony
the bell on that Ride cymbal is so big he could Airbnb it on the weekends.
I could watch Mario drum all day every day
This song/video convinced me, that I actually cant count :)
UGHHHHHHHH! This song still kicks my ass after all these years. Oh my GOD. Merci, Mario!!!

If you haven't seen Gojira live. Do yourself a favor and DO IT. Unbelievable live, they give it everything they have. HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE
One of the greatest drummers of our time.
Hope Gojira makes music like this again someday.
Rumor is they are back in their Silver Cord Studio in NY and have a lot of emotions to get out thur music 😉💪🤘
@@MissyMuthaTruckiN looking forward to the new album then!!
Thank you TAMA we all wanted this! And Mario an absolute beast
2:35 gave me chills 😊
Mario is for me the most complete metal drummer we have right now, he have an amazing technique and combine that with the shear force
What the shit?!? How did I miss this?!
I'm surprised the camera was able to survive being that close to this level of awesome power, and that Mario still managed to somehow keep his shirt on!
Unbelievable! This video is the most amazing thing I have seen on UA-cam.
“This is Titan, one of the moons of Saturn. But I use it as a ride”
Thank you, Mario, for sharing your skills with us. It is an absolute joy to watch you work. Thank you for the years of incredible music and dedication to your craft.
King Mario is the best because he always gets elbow-deep in the groove AND Tama are the best drums for metal.😋
What a winning combo!😎
On a short list for best to ever pick up drum sticks. It doesn't get any better honestly. Absolute giant
Incredible as always! Who else wants to see Larnell Lewis cover this in one take :D?
One of the best I ever saw live. Such an amazing band
God i love this guy’s drumming
BEAST. watching Gojira play live confirmed Mario as one of my favorite drummers of all time
Guys it's really not that hard. I've been practicing this song since it came out in 2008, and I can now successfully play the part from 2.58 - 3.11
How can you play that? Teach me the sticking patterns and notation!
Cool story.
U got me, had to back and hear those timestamps…LMAO!
It‘s not only the question : can you play it
First you have to find the style and more than that do u hit the drums like him and have the same sound
I‘d seen six six yesr old drummer very technical but no real sound
Soorry for my english
I‘m French
Beside that do you have the sound on your drums its a big part of the artistc approach
@@Kraomm I was only joking (listen to 2.58-3.11 its just silence)
Gênio da bateria! Eu te amo. O Brasil te ama, Mario 🖤🇧🇷
Legend has it that each stick weighs 45 pounds... 0:40
We need full albums of this, yesterday.
Amazing.
So sorry to all my neighbors that just heard me attempt to play along to this.
I love everything about this song. Those drums are god tier
Excellent, shame it’s not the full song 😢
Everybody in this earth wished so
GRACIAS MARIO ERES UN GENIO, ES UN ESPECTACULO VERLOS EN VIVO
The Art of Drumming
Them beats are slammin..!
Flawless…
Oh man, we didn't even get up to the "IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!
WANT PRINGLES!!!!!!!!" part.
Give us the rest pls 🥺👉👈
Jesus! the snare work on this song is unreal!
Almost didn't recognize Mario with a shirt on
Homeboy’s creativity, playing to the song, sitting in the pocket, technical chops, accuracy, and endurance are on a different fucking level. Favorite metal drummer of all time, right here.
I think its was the art of Druming
What an absolut unit! One of the greatest!
The only question I have - why don't the drums on any of their records sound this good?! So well performed and mixed
Man i love the sound of the drums on the way of all flesh
Don't get me wrong, Mader's mix is phenomenal - but this is just another level@@bulakke8808
Um... what??? The way of all flesh is WIDELY known to have one of the best mixed, engineered and produced metal drum sounds of all time. Everything is so crisp and clear.
