Eu ia falar isso...

[@RodeSouza696]

The timbalitos reflects our history as brazilians. Sepultura is from Brazil and bring our music and culture around the world. Timbal is a afro-brazilian instrument, a very important one. I am from Salvador, Bahia, the blackest place out Africa in the world and the timbal is a important instrument to us (there is a band called "Timbalada"), so i feel represented by this song and band. Our roots is there! Thanks, Sepultura and thanks Igor and Eloy! Axé!

[@sureduck]

Thank dog for your continent's influence on music 🤘

[@stofosaurus]

African music is in all our blood and souls, even though there are people who deny it.

[@MarciusVeloso]

Nice comment! As your compatriot, I also feel represented by your words and all the history behind each cultural element, be it from our ancestors, the indigenous people, and from bands like Sepultura!

what amazes me about Eloy is that, for such a hard hitting drummer, he has a very delicate touch when it's needed. He's not a berserker but merely possesses a very wide dynamic range

[@darkswan80]

Please take a moment to notice that 1996 was a glorious year for Brazilian metal with Roots (Sepultura) and Holy Land (Angra). Great albums, great bands!!! 🇧🇷❤

[@mrivalin]

You're right, and kudos for mentioning Angra. BTW, before playing for Sepultura, Eloy Casagrande was playing with Angra's former singer, Andre Matos. I saw Eloy in concert with him in 2009 in France when he was only 17 I believe. Everyone was already blown away by the talent he had at such a young age. 🙌

[@lucasmariano6363]

Eloy is former student teached by aquiles priester, crazy...

[@perserverance719]

Also Overdose!

[@zimiani]

I think that, for us drummers, it's also important to DANCE the song you're playing, just like Eloy does. When you dance while playing you deliver the song in the time and with your feeling.

[@jjames6990]

I use it as a way to count/time. My head bouncing to the left is at 100bpm in 3/4, and then the next part I'm bobbing to the right in 4/4 for 5 seconds before I go to the next part. Pretty sure that's how drummers like Matt Garska remember the complexities of their timing.

[@zimiani]

@@jjames6990 I agree! I struggle with this to be honest but everytime I remember to dance the song I play it better! Specially for the leg/feet work

[@newlifestartbegin]

[@bobsondugnutt7526]

Agreed. Les Claypool said that Herb Alexander had a groove that felt like a gorilla sauntering through the woods. I totally feel that when I listen to his playing.

[@rogerringold616]

All that growling sounds evil.

[@pauletasse7024]

Not only is his playing unreal, but the sound of his drums are just perfect. Wide open toms cut through so much better than lots of damping 👌🏼

[@iLLuzion1st]

Everything sits so well

[@schnozz87]

It's a great kit, tuning is brilliant, no triggers so you actually hear the sound of the real drums... also he just hits the sweet spot on each drum every time, gets the fullest sound possible.

[@BlueHopi144]

[@vovahimself]

To me, this is *the* most iconic drum part ever. So many things come into one here, it’s really hard to top that. Like, before that the mid-teen me thought of drums as something that just provided the rhythmic layer for the music. THIS hit different. I still prefer the original arrangement, but that must be just my imprinted memory speaking. Eloy is amazing without doubt.

[@VivoBateria]

Sepultura is a band that manages to bring the essence of Brazil to heavy music. Eloy Casagrande, with his eclectic style, manages to express this very well in the band. Eloy is undoubtedly a great reference.

[@59thfsaviation79]

I love hard hitting drummers. I heard this right out of high school. To this day it's still one of my favorites to play. It just releases all your energy.

[@Onamorata]

I remember buying the Modern Drummer fest 2005 (I think) and he was about 13 or 14 playing a solo as the under 18 winner. Amazing. He honestly is one of the hardest hitting and most fluid metal drummers out there. In my opinion, one of the best out there right now.

[@damiendelvallee7256]

The beginning of the last riff still gives me the chills more than 25 years after release...

[@ju1iaN36O]

If you have the opportunity to work with Eloy again, please make him breakdown the song "Means to an End" from the album Quadra. It's one of the most absurd drum performances that i have ever seem.

[@asbcpaulista]

A gravação de bateria em Roots foi uma coisa revolucionária. Igor Cavalera, o "pai da criança" fez isso soar verdadeiro, espontâneo e pesado! Quando eu ouvi essa faixa pela primeira vez fiquei impressionado e ficou muito claro que o Igor tocou no limite, não tinha como ser mais pesado e brutal! Não dá para esquecer essa primeira audição!

[@novatretatube6308]

eu estava vendo videos deles nos anos 90 no auge....cara....o negocio era absurdo, o som era uma coisa muito a frente do tempo.....ai os 2 zuaram a festa....mas o eloy deu uma renovada....hoje em dia tem muita coisa, e muitos se inspiraram no sepultura dos anos 90....mas o eloy ta bem, não se deve comparar ele com o igor...mas ele merece o reconhecimento, pois toca pakarayo

[@redacted2275]

Ross Robinson, Andy Wallace and Rob Agnello were the team that produced/recorded/engineered all of that in a way that was comprehensible... don't you forget that.

[@MrRaphaelrod]

I absolutely LOVE Eloy, he's literally the best around today... but you guys should have invited the creator himself. It's time to make a series with Iggor and have him explaining where his grooves came from. Pleeease! It would be FIRE! Love you work as well, guys. One of the best channels in this network! ♥

[@d4dens743]

Finally! the comment I was looking for (so I dont have to write it) as a drummer who was 15 when this album came pout, I totally agree, it should have been Igor 100% I'm kinda disappointed with drumeo tbh...

[@DarrenHollander]

Igor is to busy being fat in Fatalera

[@OskarIsWraith]

I’ve always loved Eloy’s body language on the drums. You can always tell how hard he’s focusing and hitting the drums based on his facial expressions and his shoulder movements, and it’s fucking awesome. The fact that someone can play drums so quickly and near perfectly and still hit each piece of the kit as fucking hardly as he does, especially now that he’s in Slipknot, is just insane to me.

[@eiiier]

These floor toms are so sick. Awesome drummer! Legendary song.

[@walter27]

He is a whole new person while on the drums, the facial expressions change totally.

[@mcachr]

One of the best metal song from one of best metal album of all time! I love how Eloy adds to it while staying in the lines of the original and i always love watching him punching and kicking those drums, such a beast!

[@VladShpiro]

Iconic track. The tribal energy, the hair on Max and his Deftones (I'm a huge fan) t-shirt stylized as the Dickies logo, the unapologetic heaviness of it. So many memories of the period in time where I started playing and digging into percussion and drums, when a drummer I met through the fireshow community introduced me to this band. Roots, Ratamatahata and Attitude music videos were regular in my rotation of videos I watched after school :)

[@JD-mu7qm]

That Timbale sound makes this beat so muchhh cooler love that sound in a metal song not alot of rock bands use it

[@kaiserwilhelmii1827]

Eloy is a beast and Igor is a super underrated drummer in my opinion. He has come up with so many unique, cool and interesting grooves

[@Euripedesoliveiraura]

É lindo ver o Eloy tocando estas músicas da fase do Igor, ele dá uma releitura em alguns pontos de forma magnífica e sem impor nada na música original, apenas leves toques que demonstram originalidade e sua marca sem perder a essência, isso só demonstra o respeito imenso que ele tem pela história da banda, e o quão criativo e grande músico ele é para entender a ideia original e impor sua marca, gênio.

[@vikingBRhauling]

É impressionante a diferença entre cada um, Igor é mais visceral enquanto o Eloy é pura técnica. Mas tanto um quanto o outro se encaixam perfeitamente na harmonia

[@cmvb]

Excelente comentário. Interessante ver como o pessoal valoriza os 2 musicalmente (ao invés de comparar).

[@Euripedesoliveiraura]

@@vikingBRhauling Eu concordo Planemente o Eloy é extremamente técnico, mas acho que comparado com o Jean foi essa a diferença, o Jean é maravilhoso, mas ele ficava no meio no sepultura, acho que não foi um bom casamento, ele com a Pitty, por exemplo, ou o Ego Kill é maravilhoso, agora o Eloy acho que ele tem um pouco da presença e criatividade do Igor somada a uma técnica apuradíssima.

[@albobaby29]

[@TheToneLounge]

I'm just a guitarist who can play a tiny bit of drums, but I really love this channel. Drummers are fascinating to me and every time I watch a video on here, I learn something new that I can apply to my own songwriting. I typically program drums and when I do a mix for a song, I always pan the drums from the perspective of the drummer. I think that the folks at Drumeo mix from that perspective too. Pretty sure I hear the timbales tom panned left. ;)

[@GeorgeTsiros]

The fact that Iggor recorded the drums on the Roots album without a metronome just shows how great he is. Definitely one of my favourite metal drummers of all time. His groove is unmatched. Eloy is good too I guess.

[@drwps.]

ofc Eloy is good also. look at this video man.

[@francescofinucci]

This video is inspiring on so many levels. I don't like Sepoltura, in general, but: - you see the creative, artistic research behind this song, the use of sounds and influence from cultures that is beneath the song, and it is astounding - you see the total effort of playing drums. I mean, even playing it at normal speed, when you start, allows you to appreciate how much of a total-body effort this instrument requires. But seeing him playing this song is simply incredible. It really looks like a fight with the drums - you see one fascinating side of drums, that is, that the texture is so simple, yet so difficult. The basics of much of the song is the usual 4/4 groove, where you have hi-hat, snare and bass. Yet, by just adding few extra movements, playing the song like this makes it way, way more difficult. It really tells something about the kind of talent and training these drummers have to be able to go through this song.

[@daniel.duarte]

Great opportunity to bring Igor Cavalera to play and explain Ratamahata song. In my opinion, Roots was the best moment in metal, bringing new ideas that could create a modern and exciting style but unfortunately they were not appropriately cherished

Eloy is one of those drummers that you just love watching play. He puts a true punishment on those drums.
