Anyone can play, but it's drummers like Aric who remind everyone the difference between standard musicians and the greats.

maybe they wouldn't sound so bad if some people didn't try playing with big meaty claws

No doubt he's good. But calling him one of the "greats" like Colaiuta, Phillips, Chambers, Cobham, Weckl, Bissonette, S. Smith, Donati, Lang, Mangini, Royster or Sucherman to name a few just because he plays fast and throws in as much complicated stuff as he can come up with is a stretch.

Aric is my fav drummer because, despite being tachnically insane, he always has a great musicality and an incredible inventiveness, he's never banal or boring, and he's a pleasure both to listen to and to look at.

Copper Wasp is probably the coolest sounding song name I've ever heard.

Creative and maniacal. Whats not to like. Also, that stick click hi hat groove was tasty.

There are very few drummers that make me want to quit playing... Aric is one of them. Dude is a BEAST!!!!

for me its drummers like Aric that INSPIRE me to keep playing and keep my percussion passion going! so much energy and control in what he plays

This guy reached another dimension. Unperceptive for us this whole new level.

Aric has it all; creativity, groove, timing, chops, personality... Love it! 🥁

And power ⚡

Idk how everyone hasn't heard this band yet. They're creating such a unique sound in metal, but they're also experts at each instrument. And I've never heard drumming quite like this.

Just discovered them three days ago am obsessed with From The Gallery Of Sleep. Can’t wait for the new music.

You are... Way too crazy Keep it up, man 👍❤

I'm a guitarist addicted to watching Aric play. Nuff said. This guys a killer.

Danny Carey and aric are on a whole different level 🐐

Did Tool and The Mars Volta have a love child?

Probably my most favourite drummer of all time. This guy redefines drumming in so many different ways. Love it.

This cat's good-looking; an artist with a beautiful kit; an acrobatic athlete doing insane onstage stunts; and a virtuoso at a drumming style no one else does! He is rockstar drummer incarnate!

Dude Aric. You're killing it! So stoked to see y'all still making gnarly music. Forever Wings Fold 4 Lyf3

This drumming was so flavourful I can still taste it.

Anyone: "Do you play any instruments?" Aric: "Playing is for kids."

Me , a normal drummer who has been playing for over 10 years , Aric , a monster with 10000 years of experience technique and level , he is a god with octapad hahah

This drum intro has eclipsed VH Hot for Teacher! Amazing job Aric!

No doubt Aric is one of the top percussionists, no, musicians of our time. Poly rhythms on the kit is one thing. But to play the digital pads in such odd measures with one hand while keeping the beat on the kit with another is just mind blowing!

WOW!!!! Never seen anything like this before.. I'm speechless

I liked the stick clicking, I thought it was creative and the look of the drum heads is tight, I just got a Tama SLP hammered steel too. The song was fresh.

That's my favorite part, just because of how unexpected it was for me!

One of the most underrated drummers ever! You are so musically invigorating and creative.

Surely one of my absolute favorite drummers!!!

Thanks for sharing ARIC. Your amazing brother. You kill it on those drums. Love the music. Keep up the awesome work. Hope you enjoy your night

This is the equivalent of a guitar solo on drums. Awesome playing man. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Loved how heavy it was getting near the end with the floor toms and the cymbals at the same time

From listening to the song to actually watch it being played is entirely different. Dude you freakin rock! So tight and precise hits, energetic and passionate playing. Keep up the good work!

GrEaT pLaYiNg!! Love the cross overs, rim shot flow an sample pads👊 Killer heads!👌 Great song man keep em coming😎

Aric you're so incredibly talented! 💜💜💜

This man is not to be trifled with. I literally think he’s an Android. He never gets tired!!!

Your kit sounds amazing!! Especially the low toms!

Wow! This guy 🤩

Straight up one of the greats.

Dang! I needed this! Thinking outside of the "gospel chops" box!

Who the fuck could dislike this?!

Really amazing playing and a great song, the mix was great as well you really nailed the drums levels

such an amazing drummer aric!

One of my favorites from Night Verses.

Mindblowing.

cant wait for the next playthrough. i love watching this shit. i watched this video over and over again. still awesome though

The best drummer on the market!

Legends say he never stopped

Fantastic as always Brother!

0:29 Say what??? Your creativity is off the charts! Amazing drumming

Insanity! Never quit ❤️

So beautiful man, inspiring!

Perfectly balanced between chops and groove. Keep it up dude

Out of this world

That intro is out of this world.

Favorite drummer

Insane skills!! 👏💪👍

Sick

And here I am still trying to perfect a crossover fill... sheeeesh. This is amazing.

Incredible

Insane, man!

i don’t think the world would be able to handle a aric improta and tom morello collab

you're the best♥

This song *mindblow*

01:16 uffff!!!! Applausessss!!!!!

Amazing, Phenomenal

Learning that first part alone is hell to practice over and over again

Melhor baterista da galáxia.

The Best!!!!

I keep watching your drum solo on the drum off in 2012 and I still think you should have won 1st place man.

This is so sick

serious as cities burn vibes starting at 1:58... which i love. great stuff man.

What a beast

Fuck yes! That is all...fuck yes!!!

Wow!! Really good!!!

Intratable este hombre.

KZread won't let me like this video multiple times 😵

Those stick clicks make me feel like the flash is inspiring you're writing. That pattern was really neat, thanks for the inspiration Edit: Flash in terms of flashiness not the super hero lol

sick!!!

Wonderful video

so inspiring...

Would love to see Jarzombek or Agren play this! Or even DiCenso or Aquiles Priester Zonder

Respect!

Now this is what you call god mode! Surely among the God level drummers who are breathing !

Was just chilling in a twitch stream and a dude recommend you when we were chatting about AAL - floored.

Insane simples.

VERY NICE🔥🔥 FIRE 🔥 🔥

Some people choose to play instruments. For others, the instrument chooses them.

I would love to see a Trading Shadows playthrough. That drum solo is among the best ever.

Needs more views!!!!!

good job bro greetings frm Mauritius!
