    For everyone that's trashing the drummers that took the audition, no guy is better than the other, all of them could record this song one take no problem, but when you are doing it with the actual band one take, of course anyone could have mistakes, well if i had to say, even marco minneman who was one of the choices missed a swing, one thing to consider is the atmosphere, comfort and such. Which makes it more difficult than it actually is. The band didn't even give them a second try for each song, just one way through. That is because they are certain that those guys could play it for sure, they just want to listen to how the guys would interpret the old music. it's the style, chemistry, and spontaneity that they are looking for, that's why they are spending more time in the jam sessions trying new songs. Anyway, Samus did a great job here but please don't trash those other drummers. You might wanna check their works first before saying anything. All those drummers are outworldly.

      +Emile Locas I don't see him as soulless at all. The man is a musical genius, sure he doesn't move but drumming isn't about Headbanging or jumping out of your seat. (Although he has some rather funny facial expressions) but anyways. Mangini is has some incredible drumming skills. He's the reason why I can blast beat so well, actually has the pleasure of meeting him twice, and got a 15 minute lesson from him! If you say he has no groove you're dead wrong. Your mind just Can't see that far.. I used to be an avid hater of MM until I matured musically and realized that playing hard wasn't everything.

    • @emilelocas5496

      NathanDrums dude, he is one of the best drummer technically and sure he can groove, but he plays with no emotion, i dont need to see him moving or whatever. I didnt know MP left the band when first listening to their self titled album and I told my firend that MP lost all his feels and soul. but wasnt him. I guess he fits the technical aspect of dream theater and I will concede he is one of the best drummer out there. his playing doesnt hit home with me at all tho
