"So, my name is Dirk Verbeuren and i play drums, so... enjoy" :D best man!

[@mrbak]

What a MAN hahaha !

[@flavy1000]

Simple...he does not talk too much..he DRUMSSS!!

[@pixelbasedlifeforms]

Haha, he played in great bands, invented a blastbeat, etc. It would take him too long to properly introduce himself with adjectives.

[@EstebanQuintela]

Best introduction ever

[@ChrizRockster]

Think he should have changed "play" to "make love to" 😂

[@toddspooner2713]

Dirk is a class act who truly cares about his fans/band. My mother works for him I wrote him a letter for her to give him just to tell him I appreciate his talent and low and behold he wrote me a letter a pair of signed drum sticks. Awesome guy! Keep rocking Dirk from IA!!!

[@trollingfortruth5039]

0:28 that moment you realize you forgot to turn on the snare at a meinl drum festival during your solo... and my man still crushes it

[@CaptainRandus]

hahaha i noticed that too, even gods make mistakes lol

[@speckon]

Dirk definitely didn't skip leg day once. That's for sure! :D Awesome performance btw! What I love about him is the fact that he does different fills every time in each song. Dirk = BAMF!!

[@andreasjonsson8075]

Dirk is the most humble guy ever. I wish him ALL greatness

[@MBblink182]

That introduction tho hahahah, nice work!

[@JonEastling23]

Amazing amazing work Dirk! I love how this song still feels new, just because of your creativity behind the kit, still making up cool things back there! Keep it up my man!

[@riadahmad8820]

Dirk welcome to Megadeth \m/

[@InnerHacking]

Absolute LEGEND! I love this album to this day.

[@trollingfortruth5039]

those double kick and tom rolls are super clean!!!

[@kalpkumudkumar8163]

He is good he should play for megadeth some day , so that megadeth can play rattlehead live PROPERLY

[@Frabegg1234]

Great Sound and playing. This is a DrumFestival and not a Band-Production. So i like to hear the Cymbals/Drums how they really sound and don´t want to listen to overproduced music (Maybe somebody have other preferences) This is very well done here. Thank you.

[@RusDrumChannel]

Just amazing no more amazing words to describe an amazing drummer!!!!

[@widowssontony.9268]

Love the drumming, very inspiring.

[@danielhady3021]

His snare sounded fine to me. I liked the ring that came with each hit.

[@AnotherWorldYT]

It was the mic/placement and the loudness of the cymbals that killed the overall sound no doubt..There's a good snare sound in there somewhere

[@takiclintonharness1449]

Same ear. Snare sounds so sharp

[@aaron2414]

omfg I completely forgot about soilwork... it's like high school all over again :)

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

love your drumming!!

[@Diabeetjuice]

He looks like he doesn't know shit, but he is a fucking god.

[@thomasrudder9639]

l

[@Diabeetjuice]

And you're an absolute genius.

[@Sodigerati]

part 2 the living infinite?? :D

[@hagicocompany]

Soilwork \m/

[@patrickvangelder1367]

Dirk Verbeuren and Ryan van Poederooyen....... Dutch heritage.

[@olizandrey2]

Should have played Leech! :DD That is so awesome!

[@FleetAdmiralHawk]

Hate it when I forget to turn on my snare like that. Great job tho Dirk! :)

[@jamesmalpas]

lmao its happened too many times to me

[@WZW1982]

I like posting metal drummers on travis barker videos and watching people rage lol

[@theadamblock]

WZW1982 to be fair though travis barker really is an incredible drummer

[@NarednikLobanja]

***** maybe so but is still not even near comparing to metal drummers

[@theadamblock]

Narednik Lobanja I think punk and metal are quite comparable overall in terms of the speed and endurance a drummer can utilize. That being said death metal / black metal ... yeah no way!

[@NarednikLobanja]

***** well since death and black metal are metal, my point stands

[@theadamblock]

Narednik Lobanja Congratulations!

[@jordanliebl7709]

Awesome \m/ \m/ WHERE IS PART 2!!!!!!

[@ferpalaciosdrums1]

Awesome!

[@Alex-Walker]

"Part 1" .... Insinuating there will be more. So upload them.... Now.

[@deaDParrot88]

🚨 BANGER ALERT 🚨

[@alfredneumann4332]

i use the same cymbal holders :D

[@AquaAnim]

hey everybody lets whine about the mix, because that accomplishes something!!

[@SatEight]

Just seen a post on VK.com about upcoming gig of Kreator, Sepultura and Soilwork. First time i heard abou this band. Then i came on youtube and saw this as recomended. Does anyone know how to make a tin foil hat?

[@Jimboishere11]

SatEight Ummmmm use tin foil?

[@nurdinnurdin8542]

SUPER AND SUPER

[@Brucestm-dt3ip]

i knew him a few months ago, great guy

[@TheMetalFreshTiger]

GREAT !!! \m/ \m/ \m/

[@gman7424]

Um.....yup...tick! :) Nailed.

[@hugorezende199]

Snare is not Garbage. Its not well tuned pra a too loose snare setting. No micing or mixing problem. Dirk play high end kits.

[@zild79]

Are those Meinl Gloves?¿?

[@julianosterried]

Good to know, that Pro-Drummers forget to put on their snare too :)

[@ThePimV]

Scarve!

[@eurologic]

His best work was in Scarve, not Soil work

[@ThePimV]

Irradiant is such an amazing album first Metal album i ever bought, I was 12 :P

[@theadamblock]

ThePimV that's a pretty brutal first metal album to buy!

[@patrickvangelder264]

His last name ...verbeuren sounds alot like it`s a Dutch surname. In the Dutch tongue verbeuren means FORFEIT.

[@dmk_weaver]

No this is Patrick.

[@gsxracer1977]

Actually he is from Belgium, not Dutch.

[@gsxracer1977]

and Verbeuren is not a dutch name, Belgium and the Netherlands are totally different, but he is a beast drummer nevertheless, doesn't matter where he comes from in my book.

[@SUET1967]

Dirk Diggler

[@Patrick_Drummer]

So Phat!!!

[@badoocee1967]

Cool deal.

[@ot9vikj]

damnit :o

[@breakinknucklesruler]

its official mb20 is where its at all the way

[@rayizm3]

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@reneheadbanger1246]

the snare sound is horrible!!! the rest is just great!

[@matthewjackson856]

+Rene Headbanger That's what snares sound like before you compress the shit out of them and add samples....:-D

[@pascalmerschaudio]

True ...thanks for ths Comment ;)

[@Allahpaca]

Rene Headbanger I actually think the snare sound overall is ok, just some of the faster rolls sound a little crappy. Especially the softer hits.

[@azathoth0820]

what's wrong with a nice crispy sound from a snare ?

[@mrrogers3581]

Rene Headbanger I think it sounds great

[@stickopter2238]

Dude is so wasted playing for megadeath.

[@jeremycubs8331]

Just wait until the new album comes out., truth is there's tons of killer drummers out there just as good but can only post stuff on KZbin, being in band as established like Megadeth is every metal drummer's dream, I'm sure Dirk is living comfortably(money wise) as his hard work has finally paid off.

[@franckcamus9166]

love the guy but why does he grab the snare of Lars Ulrich ? Lol

[@pascalmerschaudio]

not to much compression, its a time thing, after a while you will love this snare ;) and from Lars, the snare has sound more like a thrashcan .

[@oldgit4260]

Why doesn't this guy use the fat end of the stick ffs!?

[@ivanfuentes3893]

La misma caca del vídeo anterior metal gay

[@crashmagnetmusic3035]

Not being a hater at all, the guy is super talented but He tunes His snare way too high, sad really, but again damn talented

[@arminbreuer7968]

Unwatchable with a sub. Low end out of control. Sorry. But great drumming.

[@bankruptbritain6103]

good drummer horrible snare sound, sounds like my Grandma's frying pan

[@guillermo5066]

Nice speech hahaha. He's a cool man with a huge talent but this song 👎🏽. He could have played something else. He's an amazing drummer.

[@sirdickmccockneyiii5134]

Wow I didn't know Jesus plays drums :O

[@KagaminaraShikatsu]

+DuckMySick And he's damn good at it.

[@bankruptbritain6103]

DuckMySick he turns ride cymbals into wine...

[@bankruptbritain6103]

DuckMySick he turns ride cymbals into wine...

[@C-Ro]

like a god

[@davidramirezrodriguez3373]

He also plays guitar, hace you heard dream theater?

[@toesuc]

Whats up with the Meinl drum festivals' drum sound quality... Bad every single time, it's a shame :(

[@Frabegg1234]

But this time is way better than the years before :-)
