I disagree. Fortress was their masterpiece. I’ve been a protest fan for going on 12 years. Nothing in my opinion will top Fortress. But then again, that’s just my opinion. Something about their old drummer man...so creative. This guy is amazing don’t get me wrong.

+MyriadesusTV Seems to be working out for Polyphia! I never want them to add vocals. I like vocals in PtH but I have to agree - there are so many notes that I recognize here that I didn't here in the real recording.

Hearing this allowed me hear to hear so much more of the song than I ever did with vocals. That's what I love about metal. There's always so much happening, so much to appreciate, When it all comes together, the result is incredible. Awesome band, Awesome drumming.

Unreal control and skill. Beast of a song. ❤

Welcome to the PTH family Mike Ieradi, it is great to have such an amazing and talented drummer to be able to compliment PTH's style. I can't wait to hear your contributions to the band in their new album!!!

I've said it on every bandcamp videos and I'll say it whenever I see a video of you Mike, but you're a BEAST and by far my favorite drummer! So good to see you play behind the camera and live!

i have so much respect for these kinds of drummers.. "making it look effortless"

Absolutely astonishing playing ❤

Oh yes!! I'm having an eargasm. Thanks for uploading this beatiful drumming.

absolutely amazing, hope to see more videos from you.

We need and want more of these!

Awesome Mike!!! Just insane!! Cheers from Chile, and come back soon!!

Brilliant playing Mike - so looking forward to seeing you guys in Cape Town in May!

EPIC

I love the burts of fast picking here and their. It got me thinking of some "burst picking" riffs of my own recently.

Still watch this every day!

So freakin cool. Thanks for putting this up.

please post more of these vids!! great work!

I can't wait to hear this live in Oct. ❤❤❤

Right to the back of the head! Great stuff guys, Keep it Real!!!!!

Well, that was amazing.

great job Mike. Nice seeing Hadji's studio too!

Mind blown you get better every year dude

I had the chance to talk briefly with this guy after a PTH show. Not only an amazing drummer but seems to be a nice person too. So nice to see that such an astonishing drummer as Moe was replaced by another amazing drummer. Really look forward to see the album with your creativity put to use.

The coordination is amazing, I can barely wiggled my left hand whilst moving my mouse around...wait what

What I appreciate most is that Mike can play more complex grooves than this, but he plays what the song needs instead of overplaying the drums. Enjoyed the drum workshop he presented here in Johannesburg for that very reason also.

The bridge is beautiful even without lyrics. never noticed all of the crazy guitar stuff before!

Please! More videos like this Mike!

Thank you daddy I could only find teenagers doing footpeddle covers for a long time and you nailed it 🥰😜 I just wanted to hear the drums more clearly for like EVER. 👌

That snare sounds so sick!

So good. So damn good.

Awesome 👍👍👍

Hot bro!!! Power drum sound!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏

These chops though! Cool to see the drummer of a great band put in the spit light for once :)

I like this guy more and more the more of him I see. 10/10 dude, I'll always love Moe, but you're definitely winning me over.

Awesome ghost notes on the snare from 2:10-2:35. I wish more drummers used ghost notes like that. It's a nice subtle touch.

He's a beast!!!

So sick

When Moe left the band, I felt quite disappointed. However, my faith in PTH came back again! Amazing and impressive job!!!

very cool, see you guys in May in SA

Superb

I will really miss this....................💔

You play drums very well, good job pal =)

Instrumental please!! Its feel really different, the guitars sound so organic and stuffs. Really digging it :D

I'm not a drummer, nor do I own a drum set. I am however a musician (so I like to think I have good ears) and I listen to A LOT of drum covers. I know it's just youtube so you can't really judge sound quality very well, but this is the best sounding snare I've ever heard. Maybe it's the (Koa, is it?) shell, could be the heads he's using. Maybe it's the studio he's in, or just his sheer skill as a drummer. Or it could be.. all of the above. Love it, and protest the hero

Fantastic playing, guy! Love your version of it. I wonder what the transcription looks like. Probably mind-blowing

the part from 2:11 - 2:35 is one of THE best PTH moments IMO.

This sounds really tight

yo man! love your style. I met you in Calgary last winter at one of your first concerts. I remember seeing you walking through the crowd and no one even recognized you and i was just shaking with nerves when i introduced myself! i have a couple videos covering some songs, if you have time i'd love to hear what you think! thanks

Serious business. I have issues with how good this is

Love it....now where can I get those instrumental tracks so I can become one with learning the bass !!

Fucking awesome as always

holly sh*it. very nice :)

A lot of people say this is less accurate but that's not really the case. Mike has made the drums fit his own vision. Why should he play it exactly like Chris did anyway? That's not really showing off your talent, that's just doing what's already been done, as if he was just covering the song.

The hi-hat was banging out harder than Mike was 0:34

sounds delicious

Would like to hear some Pacific Myth drum covers

Damn!!!

holy fuck

That was dope as FUCK!

guitars = unreal.

Mike, are you using the double pedal in the middle section of the song (from 1:45)? Because if you can make that constant bass hits with one foot I may consider quitting drums :D anyway, great as always! See you guys next time you're in Italy ;)

Nice job, Mike! What crash are you using on your right side?

I'm going to have to agree with many of the others here and request an instrumental version of Volition. Rody is great, but I would love an instrumental to appreciate other aspects of the songs.

Don't get me wrong, Rodey Walker is an amazing vocalist, but if Volition came out as an instrumental i'd be all over that.

Mike! What snare are you using? it sounds insane!! 😜😁
