METALLICA - JUSTICE MEDLEY - Drum Cover

[@slashperr]

3 options for people who didn't like this video: 1 - They don't like Metallica 2 - They don't understand sh*t about drums 3 - They wanted to like the video but by mistakr they unliked it Good job man, I have watched this medley over 50 times already. Keep it up

[@SpectorEuro4]

slashperr people have different opinions and taste. Music is subjective :)

[@metalmadness2224]

I dont know shit about drums. i play guitar. but i do know that this guy is spot on! And why do the songs sound like half a step up?

[@zGold]

MetalMadness222 so it doesn't get taken down for copyright

[@norizammastor9072]

Me too countless times over n over.. Never tired of his very good works.

[@joshsteffen]

Justice rearranged in 15 minutes.

[@nehiryelist]

Josh Steffen You are awesome and cool.I love your covers.I know there must have been many requests to cover but are there any future plans to cover more songs after 1990 Metallica's songs?

[@joshsteffen]

Yes sir

[@Shrimpilla]

+Josh Steffen You should do st anger but with normal snare it would be awesome

[@joeybland157]

+ZI BE Agreed

[@neilmansilla4843]

+ZI BE 100% true

[@sicknessmusik]

Amazing! AJFA has some of the best drums patterns of thrash metal. Lars is a genius.

[@TheLousyGames]

only in that album though

[@sicknessmusik]

That Person Who Does Things Not really...

[@Lungsy1988]

+PaleBlueDot Yeah, Master of Puppets has great drumming, such is in Battery and Disposable Heroes. Hell, even despite the horrific sound of the drums on St Anger, he technically performed some of his best drumming IMO. His drumming, his fills, everything was too boring for me on Load/Reload.

[@rayroc480]

+Lungsy1988 i agree 100% with what you said! Lars gets so much heat yet IMO he is an amazing (self taught) drummer & although, admittedly, he slacked of for a period of time.. he delivers @ every live concert! Hey I wonder if he watches Josh's vids to practice lol I know I've been!

[@Lungsy1988]

+Ray Glackin Haha very true. These vids are great for practicing with! Fantastic drummer

[@multiestonian]

Lars is a genius, and i still love his drumming. Well done Josh, you nailed it!

[@unoriveskad5568]

but sometimes he’s a jerk who turn down jason’s part

[@jqulrich]

@@unoriveskad5568 "He faucking left the band!!"🤣

[@unoriveskad5568]

@@jqulrich i mean period!Exclamation Point!

[@smarkmalark]

@@unoriveskad5568Wasn’t entirely his fault, and I’m sure Lars meant no harm, or just had no clue. I remember in an interview the producer said he got rid of the bass as a joke to compare to the other albums, yet Lars ended up loving it since he’s always liked having the guitars a little louder. Yet in later interviews when the band would be asked why Lars would always say “There was bass in Justice right?”…

[@TheShreddDude]

Lars best sounding kit and top of his ability.

[@MetallicaLiveHD]

You are crazy bro. love it

[@joshsteffen]

Glad you dig!

[@gregroberge8873]

Woah

[@RideTheLightning728]

Dude, there aren't many drummers I can watch for 15+ minutes and not get bored whatsoever. This has to be my favorite cover of yours. The transitions between songs were awesomely flawless and your custom fills were fantastic as usual. Amazing job dude!

[@joshsteffen]

Thanks a lot. It's very frustrating but also very rewarding trying to figure out good transitions. I was pretty happy with this one. It's hard to boil down a 70 min album.

[@darrenstorer1526]

I'm a fan

[@jls41nj1]

I couldn't have said it any better !!!!

[@darkeinsaracens]

People talk about those classic Metallica's album ;Ride and Master, but Justice could be the most Metal album ever released by Metallica, great medley cover too.

[@joshsteffen]

My favorite album of theirs.

[@DaveThomson]

+Badril Anuar Agreed! Been saying that for years. Same goes for Rust in Peace

[@Hzim007]

Master is pure masterpiece.....AJFA is good too ,,on par with RTL

[@darrenstorer1526]

First tallica album I owned , you what they about your first born... my megadeth intro was ..so far..so ..good , that is another masterpiece

[@darrenstorer1526]

Metallica drums seem pretty tricky as lars doesn't stick to the 4/4 script

[@Fordmound]

This is drumming police! I'm sorry sir, but you're gonna have to come with us. I'm placing you under arrest for drumming too damn good!

[@joshsteffen]

;)

[@mikedeffendall859]

you my friend are one of the most inspiring drummers i have ever came across. thanks for giving me the inspiration to pick the sticks back up again

[@joshsteffen]

I'm honored man, thanks

[@Alejandro-rl6yx]

Es verdad, impresionante. Saludos de otro fan de URUGUAY

[@TheFruitMugger]

Your left hi-hat had turned around almost completely by the end of the video, haha

[@jasongroomes7987]

God forbid anything happen to Lars, but if something did, there's no doubt you could fill in the drumming role rather flawlessly. Very well done.

[@GuitarRazze]

DAMN! Badass medley. If you'll upload a drums only version I'd gladly make a guitar cover of this!

[@glcorreia]

6:25 coolest part

[@craigtiedemann1065]

Bad ass brother!💯 I have listened to this so many times and still can’t get enough of this medley! I love your all transitions! Perfect!!!👍🏼👊🏼😎

[@ChuchoMoncho]

Josh, apart from the incredible execution of all songs in the medley, we must also note the excellent selection of the best riffs of this album and the perfect synchronization of the songs, you're a genius!

[@sagan1976]

7:06 I love the way you play this part from "Frayed Ends of Sanity"!

[@raymondlualhati3978]

Dude, I still watch this video almost everyday! Beast mode on "Justice", the song, and "One."

[@sammymilan1]

Man during Blackened, when the verse kicked in and you hit the snare and the crash at the same time and you looked at the camera was fair funny haha. Nice drumming too!

[@joshsteffen]

;)

[@jhamilton1007]

This is phenomenal man, and it shows what a beast Lars was for a long time

[@Bonyk007]

Justice is the best drum album of metallica. Really enjoyed. Thx Josh! I am only begginer, inspiring watching you.

[@stakeOMGS]

Oh man! You f**king kicking ass master

[@sinajany476]

best album ever=>best medley!!!!!

[@whitenoiseaddict]

You're so good dude, so fucking good i am so excited that is the best dyers eve double basses i've ever heard

[@DoctorDder]

Josh, you do Lars "justice" on this one!! ;) Bravo!!! What an exercise in stamina and control!! You show how intricate Lars work is on this record perfectly (and why they almost never play this stuff live...) Also, the way the songs are arranged is worth noting. It's like a 15 minutes song wish would match perfectly the Justice time frame;)

[@stool656]

Man you nailed all the songs!! Your drum covers are the best ones in youtube in my oppinion

[@Kupyank]

A real Masterpiece .. After watching your videos i start playing on drums.. A real inspiration . Thank you Josh !

[@czr7j9]

All the metallica riffs from different songs still fit well together as if it was one song

[@jonathanelias7516]

After listening to this band for more than 10+ years now, the drumming on this album still gets me amped. You really gave the album justice!

[@1juance]

This is one of my favorite drum's album, and it sounds awesome in this medley!

[@DaxterZA]

You are a seriously underrated drummer man, I really hope you get noticed soon for sponsorships ect. Keep up the great work man!!

[@DanielIbaZ]

Dude everytime i watch your videos i see how amazing is your job.... Keep it on !!!

[@joshsteffen]

+Daniel Avendaño ;)

[@mantissitnam8827]

Such skill, that’s tougher than it looks... and that last ones deepockets!

[@DoviQc]

You are amazing sir. I don't see a single mistake you do in any of your videos. It's just mindblowing and perfect. Favourite drummer on youtube! AND you have the same headset as me! 10/10

[@joshsteffen]

;)

[@RicardoNirep]

Josh you're my favorite drummer in the whole youtube, just keep this level of awesomeness bro

[@simonheaney7971]

This is super. Love all of the transitions, great job!

[@alejoytb]

That was totally a perfect idea for covering and perfect drumming! you have skill and catched all the fills awesome man!! thanks for uploading man!

[@jayjohnson182]

sicc shit man...not to mention a real drummer who actually uses his entire kit,,unlike those show off idiots who have a million drums and cymbals for nothing.

[@uberkid100]

By the time he gets to One you can see how tired he is, but he keeps going still. Great job!

[@stanky9875]

The intro to Harvester of Sorrow... those bass drum rolls are killer!🤘🏼

[@jordanschoepke1864]

That transition from Dyers to Harvester was awesome

[@1972ibleedcrimson]

The KZbin drumming ultimate badass! Props bro

[@joshsteffen]

Thanks

[@IZRA79]

I'm in a daze... and amazed..... its very cool to see the drumming from a cool pov.

[@RuslanZinovyev]

You are the best drummer I've ever seen dude, seriously :)

[@TORAH-613]

That was freaking awesome. Not I have all the best songs compiled into one track. Thanks

[@joshsteffen]

;)

[@sakisns3337]

I was watching the video, and i was like... :O ! Great techniques, absolutely in the tempo, and if we talk about speed...you rock ! In a few words....you rule my friend ! Great job !!!

[@HorstKirkPageKian]

dude this is brilliant! very analytic, yet vivid. i can see in all your videos that you're meant to do this! I wish my drummer was that good, lol

[@wagsbass]

Holy moly dude, never heard better Metallica covers.

[@joshsteffen]

Thanks

[@montielwm]

Great, great, GREAT! The medley is perfect, and so is the playing! Greetings from Argentina!

[@charlieoc6219]

Man I love your videos ,your drmming is so pationed ,greetings from Costa Rica

[@pedrobrayner2749]

You should totally do a Dyers eve cover to complete the whole Justice album! By the way, best covers, best drums, best sound, best faces of youtube, keep up man, awesome as hell

[@bobbleheadlimbs]

You certainly have more going on under the hood than most drummer Josh. Excellent song transitions and great choices. This is probably my favorite album and you did it 'Justice.' Cheers bro!

[@sandoval7035]

Anyone else watching this get tears rolling down their face due to the shear beauty of the video? Well done mate! You have officially killed the fucking drums. Good day!

[@javierbass4491]

You are awesome!!!! the best drumer in the world... congratulations!! and justice for all is the most technical record; if you play this album, you could play anything

[@rollforeverderbs]

Could you do a cover of the Justice medley that Metallica did live in San Diego 1992?

[@joshsteffen]

This is by far the best fucking medley I've ever seen. And it was played perfectly. Thanks, man !

[@joshsteffen]

Thank you!

[@jhernandez_a7x]

@joshsteffen man I have been watching your videos for only an hour or so and holy fuck is it the best covers I have ever seen. Truly inspiring man. I'd like to get into drums myself one day. So glad youtube recommended your videos! keep up the good work, hope to see the Magnetic Medley!

[@joshsteffen]

+Jorge Hernandez thanks!

[@nishantjoshi4392]

Even Lars could not have done all this as a medley as the same time at a concert. Bank balance doesn't matter for this reason. You're unique. Greetings from India ❤️🇮🇳

[@iancox6182]

Omg.. By the time you get a full 1,500 for your double bass camera and other stuff, we might be at 100k... That means... That... DYERS EVE WITH A FOOT CAM!!!!!

[@joshsteffen]

Yup

[@GoodForNothingDrums]

Angel of death

[@sethcxcix9071]

+David Cox Simple : He's Biking !!

[@fmbighair]

Wow, I can't believe you did the verse to Dyers Eve...my legs cramp up just watching, lol... When you did halftime at 8:25 sounding super awesome groove! Even with the double time original drums in background, kind of a cool counter rhytm.

[@joshsteffen]

Thanks! My legs do too.

[@michaelmatthews121]

every time I watch your metallica vids you always give me goosbumbs man keep up the good work

[@jdbassin]

Ok I've seen a lot of Metallica drum covers on here and you are by far the best! Your a fuckin beast man!

[@Luke_kk]

Dyers eve to Harvester of sorrow just epic. Great as always Man. Greetings from Poland :)

I was pretty happy with these transitions. It's not easy to pair things up but the dyers to harvester transition was pretty slick.

[@Luke_kk]

Yeah I know that. Keep it up Man!

[@Erick_Vaz]

[@jackpulido276]

Of all your covers..This might be the one i loved more..I never stopped grabbing my Metallica necklace meanwhile i was listing to the song dude....Great covers...I want to be like you someday..your my hero :)
