Hi! Fun fact about John Longstreth. I'm his big sister, and our father was a professional Jazz musician (Russ Long). John was playing along to Buddy Rich by age 3.

Saw him in New Zealand with origin a few years ago. His feet almost become a blur. We met him in the street and got all shy like girls meeting beiber, but that's how metal heads get when they see one of the greatest drummers of all time just walking by. Please pass on my appreciation for them bothering to come all the way over here. Many bands don't bother

Flip the script! Since the metal community seems to be your main subscriber base. How about a video where you show the community an amazing jazz drummer? Particularly, for those in the metal community who haven't yet dove into jazz. Make the community aware of great jazz or at least accelerate learning jazz.

Origin is so good. I saw them at a local dive bar more than 10 years ago, and there was NOBODY there. It was wild. They were in town during the Drake relays in Drake neighborhood, so it was just empty. Maybe, and I mean this literally, 5 paying customers. They still played like it was a packed house. Absolute mad men. I was noshing with my friend, we were the only two and everyone else was at the bar, and they just played their heart out. One if the coolest things I ever saw a band do, because that would have been super disheartening.

I really wish more musicians (and people in general) were as open-minded as you. You hit the nail on the head when you said (and I'm paraphasing) "I'm not going to listen to this band, but you have to admit it demands an amount of appreciation". You would be amazed at how many times I've tried to expose people to extreme metal only to have them dismiss it as "just noise" or having "no feel". They can't even admit that what I'm showing them requires an insane amount of skill and it infuriates me to no end lol. You obviously understand that musicians from different genres write music for a multitude of reasons and they all aim to evoke different kinds of emotions/feelings. Anyway, thanks again for going into all of these reaction videos with an open mind and sharing your thoughts. You have earned yourself a new subscriber, sir.

I love the respect you give to the metal!! Here’s a little secret... A lot of these bands, their song structures (like the video you did for Gene Hogland), it’s basically jazz with different settings. Growls for vocals, guitars are super distorted, but the drumming of players like this guy, Hellhammer (of the band Mayhem), Trym of Emperor, Frost of Satyricon, Steve Ashiem of Deicide, those bells, crashes and ride flicks are just the best!!! I like that you see that and know how much talent and dedication it takes. I was in a black metal band, and we had a jazz drummer and it made so many things so interesting while playing that extreme style of music. All these heavier styles have no code when it comes to song structure.

Fantastic.! I love how drummers can drum with our mouths. It's part of the package. John is as percise as it gets. I can remember how much people would stop and EXTREME listen to double bass back in the day. Early 90's. Morbid Angel, Deicide, Cannibal, Obituary(much slower, with Groove.!) just to name a few of the obvious. Those drummers were my reason for living man.! No KZitem back then. Had to go to school, or figure that sh_t out for yourself. Pantera's Far beyond driven, was the album that changed me forever. Sounds so pure and powerful. Put feet on a new level (and difficulty) for many I'm sure. Becoming is a song that hit me in the heart.

The funny thing is that when you play at those speeds and rehearse it a few weeks. it's pretty much muscle memory. you don't have to think at all. You don't make mistakes because your brain does not have time to make mistakes. It's hard to describe the feeling. The thing with playing around with the cymbals. It sounds jazzy but for me it was just a way to help keep the time in my head and that too became mechanic and just a means to an end to help keep the tempo up.
