So Lopez isn't in this live performance but we have been told he wrote the drums for this song and played it on the studio version. Either way Martin Lopez is amazing.

[@Drpwninflames]

Check out Soen for more recent work by Lopez. It's awesome.

[@franciscomunozpena5926]

Check the studio version of this song then. You can appreciate better the drums, much better than this version 👍🏻

[@toolrjm]

Just saw them twice in New York. Even their new fill in drummer is amazing!

[@yvancluet8146]

Martin Axenrot isn't half bad either

[@mikeerdosiii6010]

Us mortals all should bow to the power of Martin Lopez. Check out Wreath by Opeth for some of the most ridiculous cymbal work ever recorded.

[@oregonwoodelf]

"This guy's talented" Understatement of century😂

[@floridabelle]

Mikael Åkerfeldt for sure should have been in your best vocalist category.

[@perhvarnes]

Maybe best overall musician/composer.

It would of been unfair too everyone else! 😂🤙🏻

[@floridabelle]

@@reddevil1105 Good point. 😁

[@Aj66602]

I was at this show, it was pretty awesome. Devin Townsend opened, followed by Gojira, and Opeth closed the night! Both Gojira and Opeth released live albums from the show.

[@W4Rx1Sx0V3R]

Would have loved to be there, that's pretty much of the most talented lineups ever.

[@BakaTheStruggler]

I was there too! Greatest lineup I've ever been to!

[@wstone2010]

qq i was supposed to go to this tour and had some shit come up and couldnt go. so so so sad

[@taimoordanish3802]

bro my reply is 2years too late but what the fuck is this lineup. Holyshit man i wouldve died of happiness there

[@ryanmeeks6232]

Martin Axenrot is a monster. Martin Lopez is a wizard. Two master class drummers.

[@BakaTheStruggler]

Still my favorite concert I've ever been to! This show was INSANE! Plus they had Devin Townsend open, followed by Gojira!

[@sus_beatz8559]

That's an insane lineup wtf

[@BakaTheStruggler]

@sus_beatz8559 It was so good! If you ever get the chance to see a similar line-up, definitely go!

[@RichardSchouteren]

Wow!!

[@tastas02]

Hi guys, Lopez left Opeth in 2006. Drummer in Red rocks was Martin Axenrot, but one hell of a gig though

[@diogomeira1652]

on this track the drummer is Martin Axenrot! Martin Lopez left on 2006!

[@inkubuzz]

Oh man. Just watching, and this is not Martin Lopez drumming, its Martin Axenrot, their last drummer (who left the band like 2 days ago), Martin Lopez was the drummer on the studio album thou

[@mcgreggor5543]

Damn, has Axe left Opeth?

[@inkubuzz]

@@mcgreggor5543 yes, they issued a press release on november 16th. "Due to conflict of interest, Martin Axenrot is no longer part of the Opeth collective."

[@flightgravity7483]

Opeth can’t keep dudes named Martin in the band it would seem. Axenrot was like the fourth Martin

[@DarraKummitus666]

@@flightgravity7483 As long as Martin Mendez stays on bass, everything is well

[@trevorelms]

That's not Martin Lopez on the drum kit. He wrote the drums for the song on the album but he'd left the band by the time they recorded this performance. I believe that it's Martin Axenrot in the video.

[@davidwalker4684]

Martin did leave Opeth about 15 years ago I believe but all the albums considered the classics of Opeth were him up until Ghost Reveries. I deeply love system but this man played on some of the most diverse songs ever recorded, Opeth can have blues, jazz, 70s classic, thrash, death, black, groove, folk and classical music in their masterpieces. The amount of rhythms in one song alone is crazy, across several prog metal albums of this band is just ludicrous. He must be considered the greatest drummer who no one has heard of.

[@jayclean5653]

Every Opeth album is a classic.

[@ingovonderluhe2174]

Prog Metal from Opeth.What an amazing Live Band.Mikael Åkerfeldt,what a Genious!

[@recurrencetheorem4264]

Drummer is INSANE!

[@recurrencetheorem4264]

They are ALL insane!

[@P0lkoli]

That is not Martin Lopez on the drums, that is Martin Axenroth, their second (I mean third) and current drummer.

[@mohameddarwish5272]

He left dude big sad

[@juliangrenon-grekin5954]

Third drummer. Lopez was second. I'd have to look up his name but the first drummer left after morningrisw.

[@reddevil1105]

Opeth, Masters Apprentices, live at Shepherd’s Bush……. You’re welcome!

[@MeuRefrigerador]

Yes! Mikael's peak growling vocals and an insane drumming track.

[@reddevil1105]

@@MeuRefrigerador in my opinion the live performance they’ve ever done, close second is Bleak the roundhouse tapes the scream he does when he sings “CRYINGGGGGGG who is” is possibly th best scream I’ve ever heard!

[@Cynical_Otter]

If you haven’t seen it yet, you should check out the Tomas Haake drum cam of Bleed. He’s a beast of a drummer!

[@perhvarnes]

And if anyone is hesitant to check it out, at least listen to Bill Burr talking about Haake.

[@richtigersoan]

IMHO the song gets repetitive and boring after like a minute despite it being technically impressive

[@TysonGiffordME]

@Patridge bleed is more about endurance than anything, and in that sense it is HIGHLY impressive, but it is by its very nature repetitive... that isn't a slight against it, it is what it is meant to be

[@jayray6488]

loved that one! Thanks guys! Up next? Archspire - Drone Corpse Aviator

[@zackzaharko89]

This song is absolutely incredible, just all around all musicians are working their asses off! Thanks for the reaction!

[@kennethbrattfjord2566]

This is Martin Axenrot. Lopez left the band in 2006.

[@slow074]

The lighting is supposedly manually operated, that is crazy! :-D The lighting engineer was answering some questions on another channel.

[@timothyjoyce4041]

Not sure this was Martin Lopez, he left after this song was recorded in the studio in 2006.

[@darkwanderer7912]

you need to check out Gene Holgan and I was at this show it was one hell of a show with Devin Townsend Gojira and Opeth and some good weed made it even better

[@ypsiconoclast4236]

Gentlemen, love the channel. As others have correctly pointed out, this is Martin Axenrot on Drums not Martin Lopez, although no one could fault you for the mistake considering that Opeth's lineup is a constant revolving door. This is an epic, classic concert in it's entirety with the band and the venue. Keep up the excellent work!

[@Toolband1980]

Lopez is in Soen now, which they reacted to

[@z_Moose]

Funny you mention it, Axenrot just left the band.

[@19RaxR91]

Opeth were at their peak in 2000s. I thank them for helping with my sanity during my teens.

[@twelvemonkeys8786]

Its time for a Opeth Thursday or any day. These guys are way up there. This is a masterpiece..

[@richtigersoan]

This!

[@hopperwolf2]

Couldn't agree more.

[@akarm5000]

That was not Lopez, for an awesome live song with him, check out the song Master's Apprentices live at Shepherds Bush.

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

Just wanted to say I love the talking bits before and after videos, the little meme videos before the opening song, the "AND TO-DAY!" and trying to get Smokey to guess the song title. I love the whole formula, glad to see you getting closer and closer to 100K. Your videos have been a nice part of every day for quite a while now, I also got to smoke a big bowl of the finest Canadian weed before every video because it just seems right.

[@TruzFest]

This is one of the greatest songs ever!!! It has everything!

[@NooDLES411911]

Tool and Opeth are two of my favorites to just get blazed to and listen to super loud on the home theatre

[@inkubuzz]

Remember Pain of Salvation - On a Tuesday, actually an awesome drummer too.

[@perhvarnes]

And their front man Daniel Gildenlöw is as brilliant as Opeth's Michael Åkerfelt. They both write very original material, play the guitar beautifully and have incredibly strong and diverse singing voices.

[@showi1267]

Not gonna lie ... The glorious "Keeper of Oreos" always gets me.

[@richtigersoan]

I cannot unhear it now Bruh, thx alot😂

[@xxraddrummerxx]

They just got a new drummer. Or at least someone filling in while they find a new one. This fella here and the rest of the band parted ways.

[@buckeyechad1]

I just seen them in concert Tues. in Asheville NC. They killed it, of course.

[@floridabelle]

🔥🔥❤Opeth❤🔥🔥 OMG! I've been waiting so long for this. Ok, I'm goin' in & hoping you'll love it enough to do more.

[@MetalHeadReacts]

I went to see their 20th anniversary show in the Royal Albert Hall... 3 Hours long, and is easily the best live show I have ever seen. Can't even begin to think how the drummer must have felt at the end of that.

[@alienlifeform7490]

Minds blown. Love your reactions guys. Thank you.

[@philipketchum9001]

I think that the Martin Axenrot version is deffinetly more intricate and more dynamic than the way Lopez played it. But both drummers are crazy and deserve a nomination.

[@stefanjr]

Yes, Axenrot does not get enough attention. His style is different then Lopez, but certainly not less skilled as some claim. I highly disagree to that.

[@loudnoises213]

this is art! what a show! Keep on rockin in the free world! Devildriver - The Mountain Unearth - Endless

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

They definitely need to get to some Devildriver, could be "The Mountain", "Hold Back the Day", "Clouds over California", "Cry for me Sky" or "I Could Care Less". The point being there is a lot to choose from.

[@loudnoises213]

​@@The_Fat_Turtle Agreed! I thought it would be prudent to start early so they could hear the progression awesome.

[@lougordon5206]

You need to see Marco Minneman play live. You want great drum work? Check out his band The Aristocrats. Specifically the live version of the song Blues Fuckers. His solo there is mind boggling!

[@julien2231]

I love that every type of reactors just love this sh1t!!! Its god tier musicianship right there!

[@njineermike]

Smokey is a wrestling trivia encyclopedia.

[@martasoleniec7309]

Ohhh my favorite rappers reacting to my favorite band

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

I imagine this song would cause a lot of people to stop it early on, if they aren't into metal that is. But I imagine most people who you force to listen from beginning to end will understand Opeth's genius afterwards. It's a musical tour de force and few people are as talented or creative enough to make music like this.

[@Hyena88]

Please do the live version of the Masters Apprentices! That’s with Lopez and you will not be disappointed! 🙏🏽

[@blacktytrix]

Since the title is so similar, id recommend "throes of perdition" by trivium. You've listened to them before but you listened to a demo version of a song they re-did a few years later (where they did it better). The recording you heard would've been them in their early 20s and the frontman at about 17. Throes of perdition is instead from 5 or so years later and it's off of what many consider to be their best album. It's a great listen and is greatly evolved from what you got to hear.

[@kristaspecht]

That was badass! Loved it! Thanks guys!❤

[@shannon_w.]

Omg OPETH!!!!!! I actually met these guys years ago at a little venue in North Jersey and they are from the country my families from! They were cool as hell!

[@Olivero1704]

Full Concert (named Garden of the Titans) blows you away

[@andrewfarelli9241]

I'd look at Dan Swano of Bloodbath for drummers as his drumming on "Ways to the grave" is brutally heavy. Eugene from Jinjer is fantastic, Mackie's drum work on the Saudade song Lions is killer especially with Randy Blythe signing.

[@noahgossman1868]

If you guys loved this you gotta check out the band Between The Buried And Me. A live performance of Silent Flight Parliament or Lay Your Ghosts To Rest would be awesome. I think you guys would love them.

[@mziska27]

I couldnt help but notice the Puscifer shirt! Lol omg thats awesome. Hey love you guys and love the fact that youre opening your horizons inti my world.

[@matssandqvist6022]

[@Hollywood6IX]

Glad we could join in the kitchen, what ya cooking

[@bryandeschenes6153]

@@Hollywood6IX I got some good marinara sauce, browned some beef and onions and mushrooms then seasoned with penne rigate noodles. I like cooking cause I'm a oceanographer/biochemist. Cooking is like chemistry but you eat it instead of protecting yourself from harmful stuff like acetone or mercury. You guys are doing a good job with your channel. Your genuineness and sincerity give the channel the heart and soul needed to elevate the channel from other reaction channels. Maybe some music you haven't hit on yet, I would recommend Pixies, Jack White, and The Doors and The Who. Take it easy, I'll try and catch Sunday. Oh, glad you did Bowie the other day, his songs are incredibly diverse in tone and feel.

Ah this is not Martin Lopez, this Matin Axenrot. Martin Lopez first started in Amon Amarth as their drummer and was with Opeth from 1997-2006. Matin Axenrot Opeth 2006-2021 is the featured Drummer here Live at Red Rocks. It was my second time ever seeing Opeth and I was there at this concert Devin Townsend and Gojira opened for the headliner Opeth.

[@mikeczech9173]

FYI - all videos from the concert at the Royal Albert Hall live show featured Martin Lopez I believe and same with the official music videos from the Ghost Reveries album. But hey, Martin Axenrot is a technical master in his own right and his performance at red rocks is pretty much note for note. Update: Lopez officially left Opeth in 2006 so turns out it is Axenrot in the Royal Albert Hall concert but Lopez is here in the official video for The Grand Conjugation kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4qYfYWImquMq9U
