[@esdee3729]

Josh is one of the best drummers on the planet. Props to the foo fighters for swooping him up.

[@obedrodriguez6879]

Yes

[@andrewferguson8032]

I have loved Josh’s playing and style since I first saw him with the Vandals in the early 90s and then with Paul Westerburg. I’m glad the world finally knows who he is. He was always so underrated

[@lobsterclown5224]

On the planet?

Taylor would be right next to that drum kit, on the edge of the step, sat, legs apart, hands together, in his tank top vest, smiling; with nothing but admiration for his boys. I can see it now. 😢

[@dkdrumma86]

This comment brought a tear to my eye.. it's crazy how much Josh says that he really wishes he didn't have to be their drummer; cause it means Taylor is really gone .. 😢

[@adrikins_4444]

That actually made me cry

[@rubentullenaar2934]

Just watched the interview with Josh and Rick Beato. What a cool and nice guy Josh is, he is so right for the Foo’s.

[@jxkecxrty]

Just finished watching that too he’s a real cool guy man an can tell he doesn’t want to fill Taylor boots that’s not what it’s about.. it’s so bitter sweet.. I still can’t really listen to foo without thinking about Taylor broke my heart man

[@MdhLV]

You know Dave is loving the energy Josh plays with. You can tell he's elevated the other guys too by the way they all look at him

[@mudcast]

A lot of power in those hits. I like Him!

[@DoctorMcFarlandStudios]

This is the reason a drummer is the backbone of the band. If he falls apart nothing can save them. This guy is unreal!!!!

[@soundninja99]

The mark of a great drummer. Breaks a stick during his solo, but plays through it making it unnoticeable

[@turkey6969]

I love Taylor. He was an amazing member of the band and no one will forget. Josh is just on a different level, IMO. All that studio time sessions really show

[@AnodyneHipsterInfluencer]

Session man chops and timing right there. Crazy good.

[@petervanwinden3953]

How many people didnt even notice he broke a stick during that!!!

[@frozenpuck]

Good eye

[@toke7342]

I noticed it

[@jxkecxrty]

I did lol

[@georgeknightmusic]

There's a great video of him on tour with Sting where he breaks his snare drum. The drum tech replaces it whilst he's still playing and no one in the crowd would have even noticed. It's fucking smooth as fuck

[@JellyGoat666]

I’ve been playing drums for nigh on 20 years now.. and Freese has been my favorite drummer for almost as long. Is he wearing an “Employee of the Month” shirt? That’s a good bit.

[@CoachSet]

Been a fan for so long and can remember the first time I heard A Perfect Circle “Judith” I was floored at the technique. My guy Dave don’t miss on talent. Foos Forever!!

[@jeffreypeters5578]

Yeah but it was the drumming on the track the hollow that made luv his style

[@DamianS1893]

Good to see this band back to playing ✝️👍🤙✌️

[@sheldon6248]

Their F ing back😁👍 Welcome josh like always your killing it!! RIP Taylor no one will or can ever replace your energy and style. You are and always will be a FF 👍

[@davidmarsalis1522]

I remember watching this and thinking. Their back the Foo’s are back . This was on fire 🔥.

[@JellyGoat666]

I was so nervous to check the comments bc I love Josh so much. I didn’t want to read any hate. But I feel love in this comment thread. I’m so happy for Josh.

[@SofireRock1]

Josh's skills are mad. Big shoes to fill being their drummer but his boots are big enough, the guys are so inspired by his energy, aww you gotta love this. Greeaat tune!

[@SofireRock1]

Love this!!!

[@adambrown1719]

The emotional fortitude Dave and the rest of the band must have! I couldn’t do it without Taylor 😢❤

[@squeedum4893]

Josh is a rock-solid and perfect addition to the band. His reputation in the rock world is well known.

[@tracydee4681]

Gave me the chills!

[@petemorgan2234]

Just fucking awesome guys.

[@albertsdisneyadventuresand9927]

Goosebumps

[@brak1381]

“I got you bro.”😎🤘💪🌞

[@Share-zv5uw]

He's brilliant ❤

[@BrettSmithDaniels]

I love that Josh nails this without trying to imitate Taylor, he knows exactly how to be the best man alive for the job without trying to replace the man himself. I really truly respect that

[@satfrog]

Breaks a stick and never looses a beat!❤🔥

[@joelo7135]

Loses*

[@heidibaltom8138]

hang on i never noticed untill you said that. That is how good he is.

[@libbycook5313]

I do believe they have the best drummer

[@jordanmartinez2432]

Wow!!!!!!!😳😳😳🤘🔥🔥🔥

[@jeffreypeters5578]

Been a fan of josh since a perfect circle

[@tonyaharmon1383]

Congrats FooFighters!!

[@milenariarr8329]

Me encanta la conexión que tienen Josh y Dave. En mejores manos no pudo haber quedado la batería de los Foo Fighters. ♥️🍷

[@kassandra5449]

Josh is a precious diamond in the band. Dave has been a great musician on FOOS side! Congratulations. ❤❤❤😂

[@Blackness28611]

Josh can drum really good

[@sabercrosby8128]

Josh Fresse is too good for them

[@vivianeaguiar9489]

Maravilhoso

[@user-qb9vs5ok3f]

Thanks 🍯 🐝🙏🙏🙏 okay Will Bee 🐝 here 😂😅😮😢🎉❤😊

[@johnhancock9249]

Good for his. Coming from a drummer myself. I would love to have his new job.

[@cliforbragatassinari404]

Lindos

[@80bbygrl]

He's good!!

[@Kompoism]

Only one other comment about how he broke a stick.. man's so good most didn't notice

[@heidibaltom8138]

Yeah i didnt notice untill someone pointed it out. Thats tallent there.

[@jimrenshaw70]

✌️ ❤️ & Foo Fighters

[@tg7048]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mattmurdoch3397]

Starting to build a relationship off stage it looks like. When they did the black and white unveiling gig he smashed it but there was a few icey moments. Think hes starting to gel as well now with the boys. Who are also coming across tighter than ever.chris and pat actually talk to each other now.

[@Anthony-hc9ib]

That made my whole body get goodebumps❤

[@heidibaltom8138]

I dont think anyone else could have taken Taylors place. I was nervous at first as im sorry but i hadnt heard of him. But holy hell he fits right in and is one hell of a drummer.

[@oscarlr3447]

Siendo Grohl, originalmente baterista de nirvana, no dejaria a cualquiera la bateria de FF, solo a uno de los mejores!!! :O

[@elsdenf.8598]

Se esse cara gravar pelo menos 1 álbum na banda vocês vão ver a diferença. Toca demais!!!!!

[@nate7434]

Sound is different from Taylor….but I’m still diggin’ it

[@VivianeOliveira-by4sn]

Muitooooooo booommmm Josh grata

[@captainbadger1013]

They couldn't have picked a better guy for the job.

[@user-ml5mm6tu5e]

I think we can all trust Dave Grohl to choice the drama that is right for the foos

[@stevendeaton291]

Now u know why Tailor said he needed a break!

[@user-hf2oo1gv2q]

Wow

[@philabowl8073]

Comparing bands is weird but they seem reminiscent of Rush with their happiness!!!

[@drumsanddrumming]

Good choice!

[@HikaruHero]

Mamita Josh!!! De puta madre!!!

[@dwightpitman4608]

I wanted to hate Josh Freese, but I watched his interview with Rick Beato and fell in love with him (bro style).

[@sinfulxsociety]

I'm trying to put in Houston

[@randalleasley31]

It reminds me Of Jimmy Page and John Bonham where the dummer followed the Guitar, Yes Employee of the month

[@michaelgreene4816]

Remember his time with NIN!!!

[@josephringling]

Josh is doing an EXCELLENT job!!! Some have complained he’s a bit too fast, but that’s Ok. He’s demonstrated he’s got what it takes. I’m sure he will be able to bring the speed up or down depending on the version they decide to play. ROCK ON FF 🤘😎🤘

[@JellyGoat666]

I’m sure he was so super stoked to have been asked by a legend to join the band. So I’m sure he was a little charged up when he first got the gig and had to relax and slow it down a bit, but the guy is a drummer’s drummer.. i.e. the reason Dave asked him.

[@remylefevour]

I love that others are trying to critique Josh Freese’s playing when he’s literally one of the most sought after drummers in the industry.

[@FIREGURU]

Most people saying he was rushing don't know how this works. There's a "click track" in his earbuds that he's using for the tempo. In fact, I think all if the members are hearing the click. It's usually up to the player if they want it in their mix.

[@mattmurdoch3397]

The sonds sound better. I think dave knows that. Theyre accommodating his playing.they have already added a whole mod section to all my life. Theyre playing harder rock because of him. I think they like it.

[@FIREGURU]

@@mattmurdoch3397 Agreed! It sounds tighter. And he's so crisp coming out of his fills. Chemistry is everything with this band. Hopefully it works out long-term!🤙🏻

[@traciannveno]

Josh makes them better. He’s to good for them actually. But it works great!

[@CapeFear1]

Who is the new drummer?

[@nunya9692]

Josh Freese. Seen them live not long ago and i was in awe. He's just... wow!

[@scott12at]

Nice stick change. Broke a stick. Didn't miss a beat.

[@Zaksaladfingers17]

Man not seeing that hawk on the drums….stings a little

[@tomsandoval-ym6jj]

2 human metronomes

[@bikertrucker7950]

He is a great drummer … but it’s still hard without Taylor behind the kit

[@daniele.82]

C'è chi può...

[@user-mf8su7ny3s]

What song

[@TheMusicalElitist]

Read the description

[@V3NOM9ONE]

Mental note… never turn your back to the camera while violently stroking your ….guitar…..lol

[@John-my7gs]

The drummer looks like he’s too good for the rest of the band…

[@mc76]

IMO, he's a bit too busy for the material--almost prog-like--but there is no doubt Freese is a monster.

[@poopoop1903]

cant wait for prog fighters

[@ltlt1219]

​@@poopoop1903 &poopoop1903 said: "let there be prog..." ;)

[@as48507]

Sorry.. I’m still bummed about Taylor..

[@geowillia6325]

He drums too fast the band has a hard time keeping up.

[@Greenhornet204]

Josh should be FF drummer

[@castoroy14]

He is

[@tonyaharmon1383]

HaHa!!✌️

[@glenfdoss]

Dave always watches like he doubts his skills Dave Josh is better then you and Taylor
