Gotta appreciate a drummer who writes parts so recognizable you instantly hear the song from just the drums

You sure are a big Lars Ulrich fan.......ok then

All the people ask Josh to play songs from other bands, and no one congratulate him for play this amazing medley. Good job Josh, Dream Theater is my favorite band too.

Its obvious on your profile pic that dt is your favorite band,

Mike Portnoy is easily one of my biggest idols. Watching you nail these fills me with awe and jealousy. Keep killing it man!

Brilliant as always Josh! These drums-only versions really show how amazing Portnoy is

@jonny j honestly such as? Except for maybe Garstka but otherwise I'd love to hear if there is anyone else on this level.

Amazing!

Finally a drummer on YT who can actually groove. I immediately subscribed.

Amazing job as always! You and MP are both amazing!!!!

I have no words. Absolutely amazing once again josh! Keep it up 👍👍👍👍

I love how you picked some totally underrated overlooked gems! That Ministry of Lost Souls part was freaking amazing!!

Totally, that part so intense

that was so amazing man, incredible grooves, you made them justice 100%

Amazing drum sound (especially the cymbals) and badass playing. Great stuff. Keep it up.

excellent work!

This is awesome dude!

Nice control. I started as a drummer but ended up as a studio/session guitar player for 30+ years. I see so many drummers today that think they need a death grip on the sticks to have control and they completely loose that little nuance. I noticed it beautifully on your "Need To" Korn cover. Really nice.

Nice job yet again bro ..that bass drum sounds more beautiful every vid 🥁🤘🏻

Great playing, awesome sound/mixing. Top notch. Bravo, achievement unlocked....

I could watch your Drum Videos all day! You're a great drummer and keep up the amazing work!

I always enjoy your drumming Josh. Spot on !

Amazing Josh, AMAZING!!! Congrats from São Paulo, Brazil!

Yyyeeeeaaaaaaa man great job!!

That was awesome 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

We all know that you're the best drummer. I always enjoy your videos. Respect!

KILLING IT AS ALWAYS JOSH!!!

That was a pleasure to watch

great job Josh! *cheers* subscribed

amazing as dude

Great stuff

Pretty amazing man!!!!

Awesome sounding kit dude! Insane playing aswell!

You definitely picked some sweet spots to work with. Love the hi-hat control, good job!

Dude, great job. I'm playing Black Clouds now. I love that record.

I don't know why I've never seen your videos before, but you earned a new subscriber either way. Keep up the awesome work! One of the best drummers on KZread I've found, and you aren't an arrogant show off which makes it even better! You deserve waaaayy more subs!

You're awesome dude!

Damn, that ending though! Awesome video, Josh.

Another great video 😃😃😃😃

As always thank you. Keep the kick on the double

That is some insane drumming man, well done! \m/

Well done!

Nice work.

I've been watching you for so fucking long, and the video quality and sound, mixing, all them pains in the arse are 100 times better. It's nice to see a channel grow, especially when you have a common interest! Great job my man, keep the hair growing also ;)

BEAST! Your solid drumming is out of this world man. You're such a hard worker. Some people will never understand the kind of shit you go through to upload a drum cover with a quality like that. I've seen your mixing video haha maaaan, you're such a perfectionist. Trust me I know because I mix my drum tracks as well. I guess what I am trying to say is KEEP ROCKING my friend. Respect.

Not enough comments praising your drumming. You’re really good man, but you probably already know that. Now how much do I have to pay you to play Angel of Death already?

Very nice!!!

You make it look so easy. I like that. Some drummers want everything they do to look so difficult when in reality it isn't.

Extremely good playing. I love your videos dude. Wish I could find someone local like you to work with.

Cover some Opeth would ya?! Deliverance, The Leper Affinity, Bleak? :)

Ive been watching since your wait and bleed video (i got into air drumming because that video fucking blew my mine). Everything from mic setup to just your playing. Youve become a fucking beast man. You were amazing but dude now you are playong dream theater. Holy shit man

Amazing drumming man! 🤘

Sick man.

You're awesome dude :)

As hypnotic as ever. Love it

Killed it again.

Badass man!

best drummer on youtube!!!! hands down, from your setlists down to your style!!

I haven't listened to too much Dream Theatre but I know great drumming when I hear it - this is it.

Josh great video as always and nice musicianship as always and thanks for the inspiration you've help get better at the drums.you've taught me a good bit by making videos you can learn a lot by watching and could you please do the great debate by dream theater plz

this is the first time i’m seeing your hair without a hat on and i gotta say, im liking it

Man, If you were part of a band, I swear I would be a faithful follower of yours. You are a damn beast!!

Fantastic

Your kit sounds amazing!

My Favorite Grooves from this was: Octavarium and Ministry! Nice Josh!

You know, I’ve never actually paid much attention to what the drums are doing in Count of Tuscany before cause I’m so distracted by how everything flows together so beautifully in that song, but holy hell are those drum grooves he’s doing in there INSANE! Thanks for showing this.

Serious stuff, Josh. Wow.

That was insane!!

fav dummer of youtube. keep it up

Excelente woow good mi friend ....thanks

holy friggin shiat this was SO spot on in playing AND in tracks and parts selection. Was hearing the full tune in addition to your drumming. You could've easily beaten mangini to play in DT. Actually i'd really prefer you as a replacement for the unreplacable one ;) This is a crazy video man !

wow man your are a very skillfull drummer man, playing portnoy's hardest parts, that shit was very hard to do, keep it up breh

Nailed it!

Danny Carey is not only one of the greatest drummers ever, but also invented time travel.

Great effect on the sticks.

Only Mike Portnoy can play as Mike Portnoy, so...are you Mike Portnoy?! Good job, Josh

Ayye digging the long hair man! \m/

You, sir, are on point!!!! 😲😲

Very amazing. Mike Portnoy André You Portnoy.

awesome!

loving the hair dude

Best on youtube!

Wooooooooooow! Perfect!

Absolute beast

New cam? Also, cool haircut! And well, awesome playing as always.

Lovin' the hair!

AWESOME MAN!👍👍🤔

You killed it as usual man great job!....so uh whens angel of death coming? Hahaha

진짜 잘한다...awesome!!!! You are good drummer!!

And we could definitely see his inspiration in your drumming aswell to say the least!

Few people notice that Mike Portnoy is basically being very, very creative with a relatively limited amount of chops.

I agree. He's the perfect drummer for people at the intermediate speed level. People like Alex Rudinger are at an almost unreachable level.

I love the tone of the rotos! The mic's pick them up just right imo
