This track really highlights what an awesome composer Joey Jordison was. I remember hearing those linear fills for the first time at ozzfest in 98 or 99 when they debuted. The next 2 years this disc didn't come out of our cars. Slipknot on subwoofers in a 90's Camaro is how I grew up. Cool to see this kid rocking this track 20+ years later. In another 10 years this kid is going to be insane.

I was at both. In 98, I went to 3 shows. In NC Raleigh, Charlotte, and if memory serves, Columbia SC was the 3rd one. Tool was there. In Raleigh, Danny totally brutalized the intro to Eulogy. Like he did the one thing you NEVER do! He stopped. And started over! Not on topic, but your comment brought up some good memories for me.

[@Roox8115]

I have discovered Caleb just a week ago, by complete and utter chance, when i got to see the drum cover for "Surfacing" he posted on his FB channel (he has a FB and a KZbin channel) and my reaction was identical to yours, i was completely floored, i couldn't believe my eyes and ears. I am not a drum specialist and not a drummer either, so i can't analyze the technical parts of his playing drums, but what i did notice was something i thought could never ever see, and that is Joey's style of playing, at least partially. I saw a glimpse of Joey's sparkle of genius in his playing. And not only in playing, but even when he practices on his drums, i get a strange feeling he resembles Joey when he was practicing. If you check out his FB page, you will see that he has a lot of drum covers from various bands, but when he plays the older Slipknot songs....:) it's something else. Also from his FB, you will find out that Joey did know about Caleb, in fact he was in frequent contact with his parents, there's even a photo of him at his laptop talking to Caleb and his mother through Skype. The photo was posted by his parents after Joey died. I can't even imagine how heart-broken Caleb must have been when he heard the news, to lose a hero at such a young age is pretty dramatic, yet he managed to go on. Also, this autumn, in September, on Jay Weinberg's birthday, Caleb was invited by Slipknot to join them on stage, when they had a concert in Birmingham (Caleb is probably from Birmingham), there are some photos posted with Caleb and Jay on stage. He received great acknowledgement from the band. He has a bright future ahead!

[@theblackestvoid]

The only up and coming drummer to ever get Joey's endorsement. According to Joey's partner he was proud of Caleb and saw him as his heir, his legacy. This is a big deal because Joey is the most influential drummer there's been since Bonham passed away and he only co signed one up and coming drummer. This kid. No one since Bonzo has inspired so many drummers to pick up the sticks and to only endorse Caleb is something special. I mean Joey's last public post was about Caleb and the last public picture of Joey is the one he has with Caleb. That's some passing of the torch type stuff. As good as the other kids are like Yoyoka and Nandi, they don't play anything as complicated as he does and he's half their age and half their size. He's truly something special. The best kid drummer there's been. There's only one thing that beats this video. His Dream Theater cover. Probably the best video I've ever seen from any prodigy. That double kick was given to him by Jay Weinberg from Slipknot. It's like he's destined for greatness.
