Every time I see Degrasso playing drums I remember how important is to sound clean without losing punch and energy. The pier on his feet is remarkable, he doesn't need triggers! Yes! ( It seems that the world speed and triggers are each other........ That's why those drummers sound like heartless computers, their vibes don't say anything) Degrasso shows us the importance of punch combined with speed.

I had the privilege to see Jimmy Degrasso with Suicidal Tendencies on the Suicidal for Life Tour. The greatest live drumming performance I ever saw. I sat stage side just like this video and was blown away. The sound was amazing, it was out doors and the sun had just went down. To this day I still hear that drum sound in my head. I loved the drum work on the World Needs a Hero. Lucky for me I live in San Jose and got to meet him in his Drum shop (San Jose Pro Drum) where he sold me a Navy Blue Sparkle Pearl Reference Pure Drum Kit that I will Cherish forever. Jimmy Degrasso is among the elite all time great drummers of our era.

I've always thought Jimmy had a superb ear for playing the right thing at the right time for the song. Great blend of drum chops and musicality. Seems even great drummers tend to fall more toward one side than the other. Degrasso also finds that perfect balance.

I seen his clinic in Regina, Sask Canada a few years ago. Was really good, only a handfull of people so it made it even better. They served beer at the clinic which was in an older building that hosted shows and bands. Some dick head showed up drunk and kept yelling more double bass! Question and answer period was followed by... Play more double bass! He was removed after that... ha

I don't understand how nowadays peolple that think get the reason for something that they're wrong in the sense of style of heavy metal and subgenre, Megadeth is a band of Metal that they have advenced inside their style album by album, that's the fact! any drummer that have been in Megadeth is because his level as the musican is the perfect and nothing else, and now people say that Megadeth isn't thrash but fusion and any bullshit...please peolpe, all bands have their story and Megadeth in one!

Jonas O Yup, tis a sick groove. Jimmy is very “regimented” in his playing - very tight and clean rudiments, hard hitter, on-point and powerful, fast and furious double bass fills, and he really draws out the “crack” of the snare. He grew up on jazz and fusion, and you can hear it in his technique, chops, and overall approach. A great hard rock/metal drummer of the old-school. 👍

Megadeth is NOT thrash, it's speed/fusion. Gar Samuelson DEFINED the sound of the first two albums with his dynamic hi-hat and double bass playing and insane rhythms. Menza is just an average beat-the-shit-out-of-the-drums guy, you can find millions of those anywhere. Vinnie Colaiuta was only hired to record one album, and was NOT a member.

vinnie was taken as an exemple, you can-t compare drummers with different styles and grooves!! Mensa is a better thrash drummer than jimmy, and jimmy kicks Nicks ass in tecnical skills, so?

Nick is just beating the shit of the drums? by that statement you told all in here how little you know about drumming, Talking to you is just a waste of time,

You just regurgitate the opinion of the majority. Shawn Drover is the worst drummer Megadeth ever had. Menza comes in second. I know little about drumming? Almost funny.
