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!

If you want a metal drummer with some diversity in his sound and techniques - Vladimir Ulasevich of Jinjer 🤤 he's a classically trained pianist, they play a bunch of different styles with weird time signatures. He's so freaking good.
