Drum Teacher Reacts: DELTA EMPIRE! | Slipknot - 'The Heretic Anthem' - Drum Cover

[@davidriddick82]

DELTA IS A MONSTER!! I enjoy his energy and his amazing technical precision, but he’s got a great drum kit and he does amazing covers of many genres

[@MickH60]

👍

[@skipper674]

Hey don't discount that He could be a She! There are lots of female drummers now.

[@MattCKB1]

Delta's Prodigy covers are amazing!

[@michaellambert8306]

Delta does my favorite covers. Beastly playing and great drum sound.

[@johannjohann6523]

It's hard to not like Slipnot and be a drummer. Maybe impossible. lol. What a killer DW drum set. Sounds fantastic. I don't mind throwing in some double bass, but to play that fast just never even occurred to me.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Amazing!

[@scottfilipiak7197]

Delta Empire is Uli Kusch, the drummer for the Heavy Metal band “Helloween”, along with a few other bands. But Helloween being the most known. 🤘🏼

[@mini_skinny0296]

According to Reddit Delta is the drummer for Fckshovel. He had a company named Delta Empire Ltd., now I think is closed.

[@ll7868]

I've been subbed to Delta Empire for around 6 or 7 years. He's got a lot of good covers.

[@Kruudelis]

Delta Empire's covers are amazing. His cover of "Aftermath" by Strapping Young Lad is *chefs kiss*

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Super covers

[@TheeGoatPig]

If you're five foot five than I'm six foot six.

[@donaldglaser7686]

🤔

[@TheeGoatPig]

@@donaldglaser7686 I know, right? I'm only six foot two.

[@King_Zer1]

Bravo 😅👏🏼

[@damionbeanstormchasing9892]

Delta is a beast

[@christofts857]

That hoodie! The original reaction hoodie 💪🏻

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

HAHAHA YES! I don't go clothes shopping much...

[@jay-remedy-plz]

10:00 🎉😂 Truth in honesty! Well played.

[@justingoulet9714]

Foot speed dexterity monster chops swing . Heading has it all. Amazing . Love this. Have a great day my friend 😂😂

[@SouthernFarmingTV]

Delta empire is the shit

[@Virvum_Juggernaut]

DELTA has style, panache and chops for days.

[@jaron91]

When you Google "Delta Empire", a German drummer's name pops up over and over. Also, Andrea "Vadrum" Vadrucci is one of the OG YT drummers. His version of the Super Mario Bros theme is legendary. You should check him out.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

OMG I can't believe I've never done a Vadrum vid....

[@lucyferina]

You should check his cover of Slayer titled killing dittohead, it is two songs killing fields and dittohead. Amazing drum rolls and incredible control.

[@johanrevelid2067]

You should check out , the "new" Video of Tommy Aldridge playing / breakdown - Over the Mountain..good stuff.

[@Scrub_Jake]

Oh hell yeah I use this guy’s covers to learn Pantera songs 😅🤣

[@tjombom]

Delta Empire is Mr. Robot in Metal.

[@donnelson6694]

Not really a fan of Slipknot but wow, Delta was really firing on all cylinders here.

[@peeholio3260]

Dave McClain The Imperium cover is by far his best.

[@ll7868]

How about a Father vs Son Drum Battle? Max Weinberg (The Max Weinberg Seven and Bruce Springsteen's E-Street Band) vs Jay Weinberg (E-Street Band and Slipknot). There are two videos on Guitar Center's YT channel from 2009 and 2017, both videos are under 7 minutes, you could do both in one reaction video. The 2009 video was when Max was the studio drummer for Bruce, Max was also band leader for The Late Show With Conan O'Brien so Jay played with the E-Street Band on tour, Jay was still mostly unknown outside Springsteen fans at the time, he was more famous than his father in the 2017 video. I was a fan of Max on Conan, never missed a "ba-dum-tss" whether it was during the monologue or an interview.

[@damionbeanstormchasing9892]

I have my suspicions of who delta is. His drum setup, playing style, and physical build is a lot like Jason bittner. Just my opinion

[@MrFEFman]

Ooooh, I dunno. Jason's a Pearl endorsee and Delta's DW kit is sweet.

[@damionbeanstormchasing9892]

@@MrFEFman I thought the same, but there’s a few things that the two of these guys have in their playing style that’s spot on! Biggest tell tell is his foot placement and the way he plays his chops, very stone like, another like this video said is the way he implements his splash accents, there’s several of Jason’s videos where he does the exact same thing. His body mechanics are very identical, and I’ve never seen them in the same room so there’s that lol. And let’s be honest, yeah he has the tama endorsements, but mapex sounds better tbh. Maybe that’s why he wears the mask lol. In all honesty it’s probably not him, but if it’s not, he’s definitely a fan of Jason’s

[@MrFEFman]

@damionbeanstormchasing9892 I have to admit that I'm not a drummer. As a guitarist, I love a great drummer and want to learn more about the nuances of drumming. That's why I watch and enjoy these sorts of videos.

[@kindred5765]

Delta is not Jason Bittner....I hope his name comes out cuz the music from his previous bands is killer.

[@spooky7542]

Check out “before I forget”. Also never forget Delta again…. You have been warned😡🙃

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

🤣🤣👌

[@julienmgastonmercier]

Full tempo. Full swing. Full hard on lol

[@PaulArnold-z1o]

Give you a hint - he goes by DJ (someone).....

[@jacklarsen4]

I feel like out of all my cymbals my china cymbals crack most frequently. Right at the crease.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I have friends say the same

[@zacharymurphy5312]

Delta has a great one of him doing people=shit. Be great to do around christmas 😉

[@davinb28]

Delta isn't a well known person but his first name is Dave. ;-)

[@davinb28]

Yes, he has been in bands before though. Just not well known ones. Oh and he's British

[@peeholio3260]

Dave McClain

[@johnwhitaker545]

Delta’s gone silent

[@m2p2b]

Hi, Andrew! I have a personal question....... why are you wearing a Chile hoodie??? The question is because I'm from Chile, and the hoodie called my attention. Greetins!

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Mi Esposa es Chilena :)

[@m2p2b]

@@AndrewRooneyDrums and that is awesome! You got yourself one of the greatest women in the world. Cheers and saludos para ella desde Chile!

[@argueljeanmichel9897]

you haven't reacted to Cozy Powell, a well known drummer of the 70s rock/hard rock , try 'stargazer' a video live 1976 , with DIO on vocals and Ritchie Blackmore on guitar (ex deep purple) with an amazing guitar solo kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIe7qmSFncZ4iLs an epic song,, an unmissible gem of the 70s

[@boomstik88]

Just a quick question? I love you reaction videos, but I am wondering,, Why have you not done Any Alex Van Halen? you should do a deep dive into? Believe me its worth it.

[@JorgeLourenco000]

Sorry but nothing beats the sound JJ's drum kit had. Untill today I did not find one single cover or even Jay's kit that sounded that powerful and clean (I'm not talking about skills).

[@dirkkrau-stangenberg5632]

Delta Empire & 66Samus are the best... after Nicko McBrain of course

[@cristianguerra7279]

This drummer really copied Joey Jordison drumstyle!

[@tobiasjacobsen_dk]

Hey ..maybe it is joey then ?

[@Staysleepslime]

After watching Eloy Casagrande do this song, this version was boring

[@Richardeverson-j5w]

Eloy's version is so much more technical, his drums sound far better, and he hasn't had to dress to make up for a lack of creativity.

[@Staysleepslime]

@@Richardeverson-j5w Eloy took what Joey did and added to it, this sounded to me like a straight cover,

[@MrFEFman]

I struggle listening to the Original version now, I miss Eloy's mad fills.

[@pentagrammaton6793]

Noise drummed to by some kind of robot. Hard pass.
