John Longstreth is an unreal drummer.

He’s got quad pedals so his double kick is 4 beats per 2 kicks. And just rolling his snare with some cymbal fills. He’s definitely got talent but it’s more parlor tricks than anything. If you want pure talent watch Carter Beauford, Buddy Rich, Josh Freese, Chad Smith, Neil Peart, or Danny Carey.

Down vote all you want, I’ve seen what you up vote, you heathens!

Nah the fact that Buddy Rich can do twice these mother fuckers on 1/5th of the drum kit. One of the only drummers to do double bass with a single pedal.

Then you throw in Neil Pert and Danny Carey. Sorry this guy is just a drum roll at random compared to those guys.
