When I was a bartender at a Marriott a few years back, I met Mario’s drum tech and ended up chit chatting with him for a long while. Super cool guy, shout out to the techs who don’t get nearly enough love for the work they put in to make sure these guys sound 💯
Honestly I don’t remember, I’d have to see him, but it was a while ago too. He was a great guy though, my jaw almost hit the floor when he said who he teched for and I immediately told him they were in my top 3 favorite bands and that I actually played the drums as well
You can definitely tell that they live and breath music, and everytime they pick up their instruments they give it their all. I think that’s why they are so respected.
This band is honestly one of (if not) the best and most solid Live metal band out today. Their solidness and sound in concert is otherworldly. Mario is a damn beast!
Same with meinl. They're taking over the cymbal industry by marketing strategies that are obviously proving to work because it seems majority of drummers are switching over to them.
@@natthanbagshaw7410 being a tama owner, DW absolutely smokes Tama when it comes to the quality of the sound. Much better quality shit. You get what you pay for in that instance you pay for what you get
@@90s267 Purely opinion. I also own Tama, Sonor, Yamaha, DW kits. (High End) DW is insanely overpriced and over hyped. If you or me or anyone else put on a Blindfold, you can't tell one from the Next. Drumeo has a Blindfold Test. Even the "Experts" couldn't tell a Yamaha from a Ludwig, they couldn't even tell a metal shell from a wood shell.
I only like a couple of Gojira songs like silvera which is superb but the drumming in them is exceptional. Has to be one of the best if not the best drummer in the world right now!
I swear GOJIRA has the best tech DUDES out..LIVE GOJIRA sounds AWESOME!! Only other band that comes close LIVE is LAMB OF GOD. The GOJIRA SOUND TECH IS 💯 % THE BEST SOUND TECH DUDE OF ALL METAL BANDS & POSSIBLY THE BEST SOUND TECH OF ALL MUSIC GENRES
He’s endorsed by his drum companies. There’s nothing wrong with being a beast on the kit and giving a bad ass performance when you’re not paying for your gear! One thing I never cared for is watching a drummer who looks like a stick in the mud while playing!
I'm glad this comment is shoved to the bottom. It's really funny to still see people on UA-cam comments, bashing someone who is living a life they wish they had.

@@AnthonyK93 check out sounds like a drum on youtube, that's the guy (and an awesome channel btw ;)
I had the same in a hotel with Nicko McBrains’s Drum Tech 😁
never mess with a sound man that isnt under your payroll
A soundcheck with passion. Very rare.

How do you know that?

Check out some Mastodon dude
@@markwilken2492 Mastodon are great live, but Gojira still better tho
@@markwilken2492 gojira is better
Symphony x kicks gojira ass easily!!! No doubt
@@82mangini I mean all three kick ass, just in different ways
He doesn't play the drums; he beats those bastards into submission, and makes incredible music in the process. 🤘🏽🤘🏽
0:52 “the snare is a bit loud” Joe
“Shut the f up” Mario
Or, that’s what it sounds like
@@RiotofDoom Lmao!! I would love to know what Mario started rumbling at the end there... ahaha
@@angeloprofera3296 as a french, i think he said "maybe it's because i hit hard"
@@user-vw7df2tm7u Aw awesome! Thanks dude!! lml
@@user-vw7df2tm7uLOL
You wouldn't even know Tama has all these awesome drummers cause they rarely do ANY marketing with them. I can see why DW is so popular.
And yet I'd rather have tama than DW any day of the week

I'm a beginner drummer and I've been delving into a variety of genres. Can't wait to be able to play some gojira stuff someday.
You can start with Another world. That's what I did 😀 still some tricky fills there
Be patient, start slow, hit by hit and use metro. Increase speed as you have good performance at low tempos. Good luck, brother.
Rare footage: he plays with t shirt on 🤯
Mario such an inspiration for all of us ♥️
i will take Jimmy Chamberlain or Danny Carrey - way more spectacular & harmonious but i like his strong style .
@@BlueHopi144 fair enough so many drum styles to choose from
@@dannylpr_96 oh yes , many todays drummers inspire thousands of fans & young drummers .
the man plays with his soul
Man, I want longer videos of Mario! Dude is an awesome drummer and plays such unique grooves in his drum solos.
I was not expecting his 16 inch Tom to sound so high pitched. Sounds so good live.
That live sound is absolutely incredible...
Sick! I wish it was a playthrough though. But at least we got this. 🔥
The concert was awesome in Osaka. 💪🏻
サウンドチェックでここまでテンション上げられるのはスゴイ
Amazing
The bell sounds great very nice drumming
Sounds insane
Very nice Tama set and good drumming ofcourse
A legend
That floor Tom is tuned like he’s about to play a big band gig.
This makes me happy :)
One of the many reasons to love Tama
+
but pedals by DW
@@Mario-ih4vu yea, but looking at his drum solos, He plays Tama pedals too
I still use my iron cobras. They were some of the best for their time.
I wonder how many live sets Mario plays before the drums heads get replaced.
1
Watch this every day
That's the attitude.💯% CHINGON.
Completely ANNIHILATES that drum set.. *Stands up* "Ehh it sounds good" lmfao what a fucking legend you are Mario
that snare
All modern drums pretty much sound the same 🤔
Maybe it’s how they are mic’d. Cool af drummer
🤘🔥Dobre chalan🥁🔥🤘
« Overcrowded in my mind »
man he really goes out of his way to hit hard, moving his body when he kicks the drum
F#+!ING Amaizing !!!! ♥️
The Cell is so awesome live
Waaa! Very kosher!
I only watched this because of Glenn from always sunny. I'm now going to listen to their entire catalogue
Bien énervé
Couple lines of the candy and away ya go 🙂
Every drummer knows that you hold back a bit during soundtrack.;)
Mixer was like: thanks Mario. I just needed a snare hit to check levels
"The Cell" 🤘See you in Ally Pally/London
The Cell
lol "the snare is a bit loud"
"the fuck you mean the snare is a bit loud?!"
He seemed quite pissed off at the end of this video
Hmmm almost.
Marío is one of the best metal drummer ever
didnt know they came to Japan😢 feel missing
Those cymbals should file charges for aggravated battery.
🌹 ❤️💙💚🤘🤘🤘

This gave me David Silveria flashbacks - old school KoRn.
heyyyy why is the video only one minute? how come this amazing performance is shown for only one minute?
Je suis mort juste après les essais son si je les faits comme ça! 😅
I was thinking the toms were too high
I’ve never seen him use the k’s
Meinl Fiver !
Wat song intro is this??or is it just practice drumming
Its like a bridge part, ive heard it on live but cant find it!! I need to know too!
It’s the cell

Interesting to see him playing K custom z I always thought he use the A’s.
He used A customs for a while, and he still has a few, but since 2019, he has started using hi hats and crashes from the K sweet series.
CHINGON WEY,,,,,,9.999 LIKES.....
Is that a bell brass snare he is playing?
Co on sie tak, kurwa miota?! :D
Great drummer, very good music and cool guy, but I could never treat my drums or cymbals the way he does.
Sticks too.
well when you get them for free you tend to stop caring about that lol
@@Frostcrag64 : To me that is a dickhead attitude
He’s endorsed by his drum companies. There’s nothing wrong with being a beast on the kit and giving a bad ass performance when you’re not paying for your gear! One thing I never cared for is watching a drummer who looks like a stick in the mud while playing!
What song is this?
The Cell
This ain’t Mario, this guy is wearing a shirt
Did he stop using the A Custom Projections?
What ride is it?
Bizzarre… 😹
No
Song name?
Whats the name of this song?? I listened on live and cant find it!!!!
The cell
@@joshsteffen YO, did you ever cover this song? if not you should!
@@joshsteffen thanks bro!
@@joshsteffen THE. Fucking. Drummer. Josh motherfucking Steffen. Hope you're doing great.
Maximum stiffage

Y oyga don:
Y si no se ensarta en el banco... No puede tocar??? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Parece que hay un dldo en el asiento.
What’s the configuration???
Drum configuration? It's in tama website bud
@@Orion-cz4ew it’s def not the same kit on their page, hence why I asked for the configuration, bud.
@@vhdrummer I think Sizes are the same, at least bass drums, but the look I don't know
@@Orion-cz4ew yeah probably , thanks Brodi
Duplantier e Casagrande.
track name ??
The Cell
tooo short!!!!!
I've seen a few pro-level drummers throw sticks on the side of the side of the stage, why do they do that?
I mean, Mario is the man, but why so much drama, it's just a soundcheck, right?..
Co on taki zły?
Akunin..
Floor tom way to tight sounds like a snare, drumtech not doing its job
I like the tight. It’s slappy
I'm glad this comment is shoved to the bottom. It's really funny to still see people on UA-cam comments, bashing someone who is living a life they wish they had.
Wtf LOL
Not a fan of them cymbals they sound to trashy and that’s not an insult it’s drummer talk
Not good
unnecessary
why DW pedals and not Tama DynaSync pedals
это же Вадян из RANNGUN хахахах
