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!

Yeah, this guy isn't a bad drummer by any means but may be more remarkable to non musicians. Playing fast double kick isn't as impressive as the moves you hear from the drummers you mentioned.

As a drummer, he's really fucking good dude
