HuntingCam Strike of the Beast Detroit 7-22-11.mov

[@oldstuffthatmustbeon]

one of the most underrated thrash death metal drummers

[@dkyelak]

Yes. He even says he isn't that great in interviews I have seen and is also a humble guy. I love his drumming.

[@jamesellenburg8339]

not death is bay area thrash and Tom is the king!!!!

[@nategin9009]

Definitely not underrated if you like thrash metal

[@doc25000]

How the fuck you figure he's underrated? Dude's been in EXODUS for 40 years now, STILL tearing it up live and in the studio, Overrated is 1 of the most lame terms ever for musicians that have been around that long dude.... EVERYONE knows Tom Hunting is a killer metal drummer!

[@oldstuffthatmustbeon]

@@doc25000 Underrated because he should be way more known at the level of Dave Lombardo, gene Hoglan and so on

[@alphaenemy]

Why is this guy never talked about? He's easily one of the best thrash metal drummers ever.

[@luisosve2299]

Indeed

[@mauriciohernandezdiaz9825]

Benante/Hunting/Lombardo = Holy Trinity

[@TerravoreThrashBulgaria]

Add Gar Samuelson/Nick Menza too

[@dimitrisdm6997]

Hoglan and Samuelson too....

[@MNB730]

Nick Menza is always talked everywhere that has a pint of megadeth in it Samuelson though

[@deceiver444]

Tom Hunting is probably the most underrated metal drummer of the past thirty years

[@davematulessya7653]

Tom and Dave 2 hero's of mine.... brutal this Guy legend

[@luiserer5275]

There are 3 options: 1. Tom is outta of this planet. 2. He is not human. 3. He is a fucking robot machine. Best Thrash drummer ever. Period.

[@Badassvidsz]

+Thrxshard + that he's left handed like me :-)

[@geoalsan]

+Thrxshard I still prefer Lombardo

[@felipealcayaga]

for thrash aaalways Lombardo will be the king!

[@chrisberg2083]

Tom hits harder

[@landomcc69420]

Dave Lombardo is the best Tom is right behind him

[@ricklieffering]

Man that fill at 2:00 is fucking awesome!! What an explosion of power!

[@IwieIch123]

seriously how is that even possible?

[@exodusattack5284]

ricklieffering the fucking fills are insane. i rewind to watch it but he hits sk fuckin hard and fast my eyes cant capture his hits but my ears can hear the beats delivered.

[@TarcisioMCola]

Thrashorgasm!!!

[@joshuagonzales8056]

And the way he backs the Tom hits with his kicks... Fucking badass

[@TheMTalMilitia]

That fill at 2:01 is outta this world

[@ElBrunno12]

Nico Savoca Is on top with War Is My Shepard solo fill

[@kevinjensen7765]

Thats why nobody cant do the same shit ;)

[@icedbirth8821]

Insane how tightly he played that fill, Tom is the man! 🤯

[@thecamper-rm2rt]

Crazy

[@paulfrehley7352]

I've replayed it over & over for the last 10 minutes. Tom's accuracy & power are unmatched. Listen to what he does with the kicks!!! Unbelievable. Goose bumps.

[@Bielanski-bandzior]

His galloping style of drumming is pure fucking perfection, so energetic. Can you not want to head bang while listening to this?

[@filipnevrly1256]

Exactly :) He is like a third guitar player in the band.

[@bullhurley8945]

Tom`s drumming is beyond anything. His timing is perfect and he is still doing it at age 50. Live, he entirely matches the drumming on records. Apart from Thrash drumming he is also able to play softer rock shit. I cannot think of anyone hitting the toms (haha) so hard except maybe Mr. Paul De Marco from Rose Tattoo. Tom gives it all at any show.

[@silverblack5475]

This is an absolute clinic in THRASH drumming ......tom is the best.

[@marzunca]

Most underrated thrash drummer EVER He's a fucking BEAST

[@jasonking6540]

Tom hunting Is an Underrated Drummer!! this guy is Great!!

[@juddrizzo]

... Love it! The world needs many more Tom Hunting live drum vids!!! \m/

[@dcs2690]

Sure that

[@tcollier5460]

Very humble and underrated, killer drummer

[@CHIPROBERTS]

You know, I just typed in "Tom Hunting" on purpose just now and I'm so glad I did. It's too bad he (Or Exodus for that matter) just isn't considered in the top tier of thrash drummers. Like it or not, everyone knows Lars, Dave Lombardo, and maybe Gene Hoglan but not many know the drummer for Exodus by name. Why is that? Ugh. Killer drummer! Super surgical like precision! He's been one of my favorite since Bonded By Blood. Killa drummer!

[@buddcarcook4655]

CHIPROBERTS and John Tempesta who also played for Exodus.

[@dominicsosa7405]

evrything on bo ded by blood will crysh anything from kill em all ...live in the flesh ...

[@Gothraven]

And still no one talk about Paul Bostaph

[@lithiummateria]

The fills are simply amazing..tight sounding..so underrated it's almost criminal

[@hokymetallica]

crowd like : this is too heavy, we need metallica

[@badman104]

👌

[@randomscumbag153]

Idk man, Metallica has had some pretty brutal moments in the past.

[@Brendan656]

@@randomscumbag153 oh come on, Lars doesn't even compare to this guy

[@randomscumbag153]

I know that, but you seem to have missed my point about how Metallica was one of the heaviest bands in their prime.

[@bossesparza7826]

It is DTE in Clarkstan Mi no open floor all seats on a hill

[@Lyle667]

BEST drummer in thrash, period!!

[@robertwalker3357]

Lombardo

[@josefelipearias]

this is a video live from graveyard, the CROWD is so DEAD!

[@andrejkelcik4133]

Jose Arias There are chairs

[@gguatelli1]

+Jose Arias Asking Alexandria crowd. What a waste.

[@victoramicci840]

Like a bunch of cardboard cutouts

[@mystiiczombie1239]

I just noticed that how the hell could you sit still?

[@juddrizzo]

Jose Arias They are in complete awe!

[@Podcir]

One of these drummers who doesn't need to give you an incredible drum solo to proove that he's good as hell! Imo best thrash metal drummer! \m/

[@fusionwizard3116]

the KING OF THE BAY AREA THRASH DRUMMERS!!!!

[@thomasfarmer1730]

Surely Tom can give Dave Lombardo or Gene Hoglan a run for their money.So overlooked as well.

[@Denmark_1974]

Tom is my favorit drummer. Always was, always will be.

[@ElioRigonat]

Dave - totally, Gene Hoglan - nah, the guy is still a bigger machine.

[@FlyinVJs30RR]

lombardo yes...hoglan I dont think so...Hoglan is from another planet.. Watch his videos of playing Death...no trash drummers can play that

[@dimitrisdm6997]

Tom is awesome one of my favorite drummers....fast and clean playing....but no drummer can touch the mighty Hoglan..Gene is from Mars

[@OfficialArthusamakh]

Gary said on an Instagram post that Gene‘s nighmare is to play Tom‘s hand parts.

[@GamingRoomOficial]

tom hunting is a monster

[@R.Lennartz]

Man, what a crowd, I think I saw 2 or 3 of them almost headbang at some point, incredible.

[@errorcode99]

greatest thrash drummer!!!

[@ziguigui22]

My favourite drummer too. His rythms have something more interesting than the rythms of the other most popular thrash drummers.

[@tomasbmx]

subjects like these, make thrash metal something legendary, musicians like tom who do not aspire to be known, they really keep showing how things are done like in the old school, always giving those live shows that kick your ass, showing an experience playing the drums really of a pioneer of the genre, they are really the essence of this style, low profile and a lot of talent with effort !!! totally legendary !!! respect

[@metalgott1062]

Unbelievable....so powerfull....One of the best Thrash Drummers

[@larrydorsey7858]

IMO he is the best thrash drummer love his style

[@OfficialArthusamakh]

What‘s the craziest about this? That he wrote this parts aged around 18-21? Or that he still nails it 30-35 years later as if he was 25?

[@silverblack5475]

I met him ...talked to me for a good 20 minutes .....great guy .

[@jeffallen9956]

So dang tight ! What a freaking BAD ASS !! We want/need more videos of TOM.

[@cyclopsvideo1]

Holy shit,that was amazing and hypnotic.Go tom!

[@Odin87th]

Man... seen Tom quite a lot of times live and this footage really captures the brilliance of his playing style: VERY fast, VERY tight accurate and VERY original, especially his breaks. This is a thrash metal drummer second to NONE!!! Thanks for posting!

[@haekalbadjeber988]

he so underrated

[@lanemeyer9350]

Long live this man, what a BEAST

[@jordanm1186]

There's just something badass about Tom Hunting and his drumming live.

[@drum911]

absolute beast behind the kit!

[@lazarvs.official]

if there was a bible for thrash metal tom hunting would be the narrator

[@bcardamone]

Yea ... This is so impressive .... Wish there was more of this stuff out there of Hunting.

[@jfs5873]

Such an action packed crowd!

[@Drummy3451]

God I love that snare sound, so punchy.

[@dcs2690]

Tom "Beast" Hunting!

[@DannyBoi2112]

He really does strike like the beast. He is by far the most underrated thrash drummer

[@magrildz]

Extremely accurate drumming...Hunting kicks ass! I had the opportunity to see them in Brazil twice and his drumming keeps getting better and better...

[@junechris]

More animal than man!!! And that's coming from a drummer myself. Beastly fills, dude is underrated and a great influence!!

[@silvershade3265]

Oh man this is so great! I really love Tom Hunting, he's a fury!!! KongfooJim your drum cams are so cool! :)

[@Fretboard_Frenzy]

His killer drum work in Fabulous Disaster album is a monumental proof. Tom Hunting is one of the best drummers in Thrash Metal genre.

[@crushffl]

Tom is a fucking beast. Love listening to him. Hoping that Slayer's death means that we'll hear more Exodus, though I'd prefer if it was with Rob Dukes...

[@lamontarnold1612]

amazing neat drum rolls

[@rfp1985]

Pegada, velocidade, precisão e constância, ta tudo la! Esse cara é muito foda.

[@PawelSorinsky]

It's just unfair, Tom's got way more stamina and skill than I'll ever have and still, he might be lesser known. :D

[@randalica92]

one of the most underrated drummers ever!

[@tomh4792]

i met him nice guy great drummer

[@cutsrosescents4950]

I wonder if this video pops up as recommended when hunters look up up Deer Hunting cam videos

[@dcs2690]

Lmao

[@stevel2309]

Striking those drums like a beast.

[@dcs2690]

It blows my mind everytime man...

[@robertgriffith3139]

A master of his craft.

[@RaghavTheMetal]

Man, Tom Hunting is the most underrated drummer. Legend. HE is in a true sense a beast ! Even Lombardo will tell u this ! We want more footage from the HUNTINGCAM ! This man is really a hunter ! \m/

[@Kingpload1]

Amazing.

[@dhlhthriwdhskissos9606]

strike of the beast refers to tom striking the drums like a beast ! Incredible !

[@tuyosarap9367]

the crowd is praying

[@beardExplorer]

Walking dead crowd

[@sienimorso8485]

Tom has got to be the most hands down humble guy i've ever met.

[@ZG60000]

Incredible

[@h1r43th4l1v3]

man we need more of this footage

[@fabiozago-zeg8648]

Legend of thrash

[@VVH2212]

2:03-2:08

[@susragejr477]

The word underrated is very overused, but Tom absolutely earns that distinction. This man is absolute fucking machine

[@susragejr477]

The fact he’s still doing this in his late 50’s is ludicrous

[@raybeez55]

get well soon brother

[@luleperić]

Fucking machine,he fucking killed it !!!!

[@cutsrosescents4950]

Am I getting some Dukes reverb effect in my headphones because his vocals are getting amped by Toms mics?

[@doc25000]

Tom Hunting is 1 of the absolute best metal drummers ever! Dave Lombardo, Gene Hoglan, Charlie Benante, Jason Bittner, Paul Bostaph, Ya, those guys are all killer drummer and NO, None of them is underrated, EVERYONE knows how good these guy's are, They wouldn't still be around from the 80's if they were criminally underrated....

[@Jam8665]

For those whining about the crowd: There are permanent seats at DTE, there is no room to move, unless you want to start a pit on a staircase. It's on a hill, the covered 'Pavilion' section where the stage is has no open space, the Lawn is where the action happens. You can't see the Lawn in this video.

[@FazersOnStun]

Tom is still killing it live even in 2022 \m/

[@bullhurley8945]

Love you Tom!

[@richevans609]

Amazing!!!!!❤

[@Glurbschnurb]

Awesome video! Do you know which crashes he uses at the breakdown of War is my shepherd at 2:30?

[@97warlock]

BubbalooHuntey dude that was insane. wow

[@raybeez55]

great drumer

[@MegaBigntasty]

all of you who are saying the crowd is weak obviously dont know the venue, i go there every summer and i was at this concert, for one the only crowd you can see from the camera is the PAVILLION, the lawn is pretty far back and the mosh pit is not going to be up against the railing its farther back then the camera can show.

[@metalshell69able]

I was at this show. Good one.

[@alvarovasconcelos2036]

He is the Beast wow great drummer 🤘🤘
