ANTHRAX drummer CHARLIE BENANTE jamming w/ SLAYER-At Dawn They Sleep Kerry King, Tom Araya,Gary Holt

this was fun! We were in Australia and I got up and played At Dawn They Sleep at Soundcheck wth the SLAYER guy's. This is my favorite song of theirs and I enjoyed doing this. I have to say my memory of the song was about 75%, I had listened to it a few times prior. Great band and a Great bunch of dudes.

Charlie is a great guy He lives a few miles from me here in Chicago I see him all the time at Starbucks, Target and the Mall with his daughter Just an everyday normal dude and one of the best metal drummers ever!!!!

If I were Dave, the one person that I would never have a problem with playing my stuff, is Charlie!!!!! Top 2 metal drummers alive!!!!🤘🤘

[@psychonautpupildiallater7734]

This would have been Bostaph's kit,. not Lombardo's,.. but either way,.. Charlie is the man!

[@jeric7740]

Gene Hoglan?

[@slayerstacker2074]

Charlie is a total badass. Gene is an absolute God on the drums as well.

[@arm5080]

Yup I concur with that assessment

Charlie is an Excellent drummer and can play most anything, always love listening to him jam🤘🤘

[@CJReaper666]

Not bad for "Only remembering 75%", and that right foot, giving Nicko a run for his money! Legend!

[@user-pk8ly4ts8b]

It's a double kick so idk what u mean about giving Nicko a run

[@RRMikeP]

When I was a kid playing drums in the late 80's, I could play most of the available Metallica catalog pretty well. I thought I was pretty bad ass...until I started working on the Anthrax, that is. Thanks for the ass kicking Charlie, it was humbling.

[@2121contreras]

Charlie is badass no matter where you put him . And those Rush tunes are incredible. Love Alex Skolnick and that crobot guy is excellent to.what a great cast

[@doc25000]

Everything Charlie touches, it spices up the tune that much more.....

[@matsnilson7727]

Charlie Benante - definitely one of my favorite drummers in the heavier genres of metal. Legend!

[@tomo1747]

I love drummers that use loads of cymbals, love anthrax and slayer

[@walopes]

Charlie is a monster, both on studio and in concert. Fortunately I had the oportunity to watch him at Rock in Rio and he fuckin' killed it! You rock man

[@01REDEYEDDEVIL]

One of the heaviest drops in this song!! This album is truly their best and what a time it was!!!!

[@Ax_Dj0]

Mr. Charlie Benante your incredible drums parts in "Nobody knows anything" caused in our school times extremely angry argues about "This is living man playing or this is drum machine?", "This is impossible". But i stand on that Charlie Benante just a great drummer and can do almost impossible things and now i know i was right. Thank you from other generations, you defenitely left a mark in history of humanity

Made my day thanks so much

[@SDMFdeeger]

That was killer! Even if you only knew it 75%, there was absolutely zero in there that stood out as a mistake. Random note - my favorite Charlie drumming moment - the end of "What Doesn't Die" when you're just cruising along with insane double bass at the end and I'm thinking "he's gotta be tired"...and then it gets FASTER. And never loses that killer groove. And then you nailed it live all 6 times I saw you guys on that tour.

[@everettbryant210]

I respect all of your musical works. 100%.

[@Johnny-df4di]

Fucking insane Charlie really cool 0:20 Tom looks back and smiles like hear we go M/FKR

[@ridehead8771]

My favorite Charlie track is Potter's field, it's got some of his amazing footwork ever recorded.

[@ideacastilluminate]

I've always admired your drumming and hearing you paired with Slayer is a rare treat. Thanks for posting this! I can liken it to hearing Lombardo play with Metallica when he filled in for Ulrich at the '04 Download.

[@vaxjoaberg]

I saw Charlie with Pantera in Milwaukee. Wow! Amazing to hear Pantera stuff live again and Charlie was amazing. I believe that Charlie and Zakk were the only two that could handle a job like that. Thank you Charlie for your service. You have inspired me sence the fist time I heard Indians. That blew my mind when I was a kid by the way. Still does.

[@gordonbrinkmann]

Seeing you with Slayer there reminds me of that disappointing day in Leipzig 2019, where you played the second to last German gig of Slayer's farewell tour. My ticket said it begins at 8 pm, and arrived a bit late at 19:50. Heard some music outside the venue and thought it was the soundcheck... but it was Anthrax playing the end of their show. When I entered the venue the stage was getting prepared for Slayer. I enjoyed Slayer as always and it was great, but I was a bit sad I missed Anthrax because I'd seen you much fewer times than Slayer and the last time is many many years ago....
