I like to pretend it’s me hiding behind the mask!

[@joshnemec3688]

I've never seen this song played so accurately. Ever.

[@bragimagnusson687]

Not many people, drummers can emulate Lombardo...the power, the feel, the speed. Delta pulls it off.

[@boringuserhandle]

Dave really wrote some fucking amazing drums

[@marklang8028]

Some of the juiciest fills known to man.

[@nachoballsgrande1776]

This individual is one hell of a drummer.

[@jamfeo12]

We can see you smiling behind the mask ;-)

[@zamp6969]

I can’t even play this on air drums 🤣

[@ovidiustativa3007]

I am not a professional musician, but, as far as I heard in 40+ years, the drum part for this song is an absolute masterpiece and a landmark in music history, not just in the metal genre. Dave Lombardo earned his place in the drummer's Pantheon with this part. What Delta brings new is a totally "inhumane" drum approach. I am not referring at his speed, technique, the way he kicks (all amazing)......the BLAST here is the way he moves his hands. Perfection....

[@denarmstrong7868]

My fav slayer song, covered by my fav drummer. Stunning.

[@catfishbilly1552]

Dave Lombardo will forever be my favorite drummer of all time

I’d hate to admit how many times I’ve rewatched this

[@csarikaya]

My children an I love watching your videos. I always remind them at the end of your videos of what practice, hard work, with a little bit of crazy can achieve. 👍🏾

[@archangel5627]

I just wanted to say as a new subscriber who recently found your channel a little over a week and half ago, every single video I’ve watched has led me to believe that you’re not just some regular guy who uploads drum covers on KZbin just for fun! Yes you’re doing that to a certain degree but what I’m saying is, you’re not a regular person! You have to be a drummer who’s done extensive studio work as a musician and or someone who’s been a touring drummer. You may have been in a famous band or several famous bands but one thing is certain, you play the drums with such a fiery passion and with perfect form and immense drumming technique that you can’t be just a regular dude who does videos on KZbin! I definitely mean no disrespect at all in what I’m saying. I have nothing but the highest admiration for you and the level of skill you possess! I also wanted to say that all of your hard work in tuning your snare, to how you mic your Kit, the camera angles you use, the amazing audio and camera editing that each video has, is not wasted at all! I appreciate all the hard work that goes into recording each and every video you make! As a drummer myself, I’ve learned quite a few things by watching you play and it’s definitely a joy hearing and seeing you attack all the songs on your channel! You’re an absolute monster behind a drum kit!🤘🏻

Can't get enough of those cymbal grabs at
