ZONDER POINT OF VIEW

[@WilliamC1966]

Never gets old!!

[@Steeltowner]

These prog rock guys from the 80s 90s were cut from a different cloth. Just amazing!

[@trondsi]

I think Matheos said that Fates Warning turned more progressive with the addition of Zonder. I can see why.

[@Jester1411]

truly one of the greatest drummers ever!

[@WilliamC1966]

Its incredibly complex

[@WilliamC1966]

The best drummer since Peart!!!❤

[@themetalalmanach]

Happy 32nd anniversary Parallels one of the best albums ever to me. Point Of View is outstanding and Mark is just insane. So glad I found this video

[@Weymolith]

WOW! Never would have thought the chorus was done with just a single kick! One of the best FW drum tracks!

[@MikeRiceDrummer]

These parts were so influential to me growing up. Such a treat to see!!

[@WilliamC1966]

He's the rightful person behind Rush

[@bags5150]

Agreed !!!! Would bring back the Smile in Alex and Ged face on stage

[@johnunderwood3132]

Shit!! Never thought of that.. nice one

[@sarta80]

Such a classic, outstanding masterpiece, outstanding master drummer, outstanding band, hero!!!!!

[@mr.koloboque]

there are few bands that i can listen to endlessly and not get bored. FW is absolutely one on them!

[@capnblack3721]

I have always enjoyed Mark's approach to his drum playing! Absolutely refreshing!! Very influential to me!

[@JuhaSalm]

Yes, Mark's drumming is so tasteful, melodic, thoughtful and skillful. I've been "metal head" 36 years, and he is still my absolute favorite drummer.

[@lorettahookano6139]

My favorite drummer…ever !

[@swirvinbirds1971]

I miss Zonder in Fates. Bobby is great but I always preferred Zonders style.

[@carlsandrews266]

i saw fates on Parallels tour mark made it look effortless. zonder is the GOAT i've been a fates fan since no exit, pleasant shade is hands down my fav album but i love em all. dream theater seems to get alot of attention but fates is where it's at imo.

[@lomverol]

Mark's drumming is so stylish and sophisticated. When I discovered FW in the 90's, I initially thought it was a drummer's project. I love the band with him and after, but to me his technique and musical taste are unmatched.

[@WilliamC1966]

Can't describe his technique yet his expertise

[@nads9223]

Awesome. This was the first song of the first concert I ever went to. Fates 1994 in SF. Still remember getting blown away once the song hit. Joe Dibiase on the bass and the drums were so powerful live.

[@WilliamC1966]

Album is rich....its a classic..

[@LaPiernaDeMiAbuela]

I always thought that he was playing double bass in the chorus... damn. Such a great drummer, and often overlooked.

[@mitchellschleede569]

Joe's baseline run with Mark's drumming during the chorus gives it the depth. All of them are incredible musicians.

[@dragomirminkov6843]

My teacher.One and only drumming style.

[@haruner]

Great drumming.I'd love to watch you play 'Eye to Eye' .

[@SimKopA]

So good taste on each fill. Specially the snare tuplet on 2:13. My favorite song from Fates Warning; killer drumming.

[@jonathanrichard6881]

Hey Mark its been a while! I always think of the Blue GMS Kit you had and love it!!! I just got a Wood GMS SE Kit just under a Grand!! And Loving it, in my 41 Years of Drumming its the Best Kit I ever Played on and owned!! 20x16, 10x9, 12x9 and 14x12 Fl. I topped it Off w/ a Gretsch Bell Brass 6 1/2" x 14 and its killer!! Cheers!!🥁🥁🥁🎵🎚🎚🎚🎚🎧📻

[@rizzamran2775]

Drumcameo should put his song in the list...can't wait to see other drummer struggling to copy this..

[@metalgaming420]

Fates Warning only sounded good with mr Zonder on drums ;) ... I love the old albums , ive heard them for 30 years and still they are a blast on my stereo now and then. The drums caught my attention,and I was instantly addicted \m/

[@angelogmpokolees]

Still one of my favorite songs. Great video Mark ! Thanks for all the great moments!

[@aaronaudioguy]

The floor tom is tuned much higher than I expected. But it cuts through so cleanly. Lovely playing!

[@ristyblackmore508]

one angle, "no frame edit" and no cuts. wow

[@lexbends]

Every one of those fills that go over the barline are just so sweeettt.... effin hell - all class

[@stevelamonica2297]

Mark Zonder is my favorite drummer ever. I had a wonderful black lab dog that I named Zonder. The most overlooked and underappreciated drummer of all time! Give it up for MZ!!!

[@markzonder3771]

I think we actually met in the airport years ago. I told my son the story and he just cracks up everytime. Thanks for the nice words. New Warlord album released in May with touring in Aug as well as the new A-Z album will be out after that.

[@amniotic_music]

Beautiful drumming!

[@WilliamC1966]

Good luck on finding a drummer and a percussionist like him ,

[@michaelstonedrums6877]

I always thought those chorus parts were double-kick! I wish the camera angle were a little more from the side to catch your technique a little more clearly, but either way: how cool!! I love the arrangement of your drum parts. Always so specific and musical!

[@brenthartman502]

LIkewise ... wow huh... lol

[@USMCSDI]

Very few rock drummers play their sticks *traditional style* but Mark pulls it off with ease. I could NEVER hold my sticks this way

[@ridnthawave708]

This is why I sit in my room and practice and just wonder how he creates these masterpieces. Awesome Mark you make it look so easy. As for FW, Someone else commented on here about how they can never get bored listening to their songs, 100% agree. The amount of miles I’ve jogged with FW blaring in my ear phones. A lot of good runs through the country, beach, woods and neighborhoods over the years with help from FW....👍

[@shadowlifter]

Many many many years ago (young boy) I listened the "Lost and lonely days" track of Warlord. Still I remember the impression of that drummer whom I didn't know back then. The man is a BEAST! Complete musician!

[@silviosalcedo]

Thanks Mark, you are my inspiration...

[@reddurt8153]

Playing Traditional grip and WAILING, that power and focus....Got to see Mr Zonder play in West Palm beach Fla with Fates I think "Perfect Symmetry" tour with Sanctuary

[@martinschneider4677]

Been following you since the early 90s. Thank you for still being around. Such a delight, even more now!

[@johnunderwood3132]

My favorite right here. Brilliant

[@garyconner6151]

Learned so much from mark zonder.such a great drummer.

[@Nor_Dem]

Parallels is my favourite Album of all Time

[@WilliamC1966]

I agree .. Terry Brown was right..

[@innersoundjsd5770]

Best @Mark Zonder, Did you Ever think of transcribing this song and many more of Your Drumming Art, and even more inspiring, your thought process behind your drum parts? I have ALL Fates Warning Albums, and Most i Love the Drums...

[@mrr8682]

still awesome as always!! Love the way your kits so tight and reachable....

[@hollowayndtengineeringinc.5201]

Lots of memories listening to FW to focus on the drums

[@kristijan1985]

amazing performance

[@GiuseppeVigliotti]

Maestro!

[@SkorpioMusic]

Another favorite of mine. Love these uploads. Keep 'em coming!

[@billycarri6202]

Absolutely awesome. You're just a monster man. Keep them coming.

[@McLeanAB88]

Greg sounds so great!

[@Nicolacalluorijeetkunedo]

Una Bestia💥💥💥Grandissimo Drummer, visto dal Vivo con i Fates ...Superlativo❤💥👊

[@USMCSDI]

Absolutely *BRILLIANT*

[@LeonardoVaz76]

Fantastic!! Please consider doing a similar recording playing "Still Remains" Mark, that's one of the best FW songs man!!

[@guillermovillela]

note the single kick notes. just tasty!

[@bags5150]

Master ! Of his craft

[@moumouzel]

Just amazing

[@TheComicExplorer77]

best drummer......ever

[@tmaproductions2023]

Mark. Sounding good man!! Kind of stumbled upon your videos on here. How are you? Long time no see. It’s Todd Alexander. Bill’s Place was such a great spot. Especially that upstairs large room. Many jams up there. Great memories. Whenever I drive by that area even though it’s not there anymore I still feel the spirit. You were always so cool and I appreciated you letting me just come and play drums sometimes by myself for free!! Glad to see you’re still playing. Later

[@WilliamC1966]

❤❤❤

[@2028end]

Sweet !!!

[@WilliamC1966]

Fucking phenomal

[@kevinb3307]

Zimm kicks ass to

[@brenthartman502]

Another Masterpiece by the Master :)

[@めんどくさがり-k4p]

i'm a big fan of yours！ Hi-hat handling is good！👍✨

[@alex-hi2gv]

Best drummer

[@AlexandreCriado]

Dunno if I enjoy because of the awesome and unique drumming or the great qong... probably both :)

[@stickncarrot1073]

That was awesome!

[@GFYM_Finance]

Beast mode 🤘💀🤘

[@capnblack3721]

HELL YEAH!!!!

[@pedroaragon8006]

Wow 🤘

[@moacircarvalho7967]

MONSTER!

[@timoleonadamopoulos4671]

Icon!

[@elmarmichels2814]

That's ecactly how it should be done.

[@timeless5486]

My point of view? Mark is absolutely the best🤘🤘🤘

[@WilliamC1966]

Wicked!!!!!! ❤👍

[@adilsonrocha6901]

é um Monstro

[@matteobrunetti7142]

Zonder rulez!

[@KlingerNOK]

One of the most distinctive drummers on the planet. Love that Zonder drum work! What recording is the audio from? Studio tracks? Because that's not the album version. Loving the sound of Alder's vocals on the track too.

[@markzonder3771]

Actually that is Gregg Analla singing and Nick Van Dyk playing guitar and Sean the bass player from Redemption.

[@KlingerNOK]

@@markzonder3771 wow. I saw Greg Analla with Seventh Sign a couple times and was blown away by his vocals. Always thought he sounded similar to Alder but that’s crazy. Got some great pics of him belting it out at the Samurai in OKC. What a loss. RIP.

[@matthewpaluch777]

😎👍💓🇺🇸💪🥁💣🔊🎼MARK!!!

[@Selkirk69]

love Mark's feel. Would love to see a duet of him with DiCenso.

[@totallyeighties1941]

Is that all being done with a single kick-drum pedal?!!!

[@markzonder-xx4hs]

Yes

[@markzonder3771]

check out the hihat

[@totallyeighties1941]

AMAZING!!!

[@Signofevil_Smile4theCam]

You also see the left pedal shaft resting

[@JalenRawley]

Hey Mark, what are the chances with some video of you doing the Chroma Key stuff like Undertow, On The Page and Colorblind? I absolutely loved your drumming on that album, would really love to see you playing those!

[@ElmerBMeder]

Majesty¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[@JorgeS-bh7jp]

Esta versión no es la del disco Parallels. De donde es?

[@MikeTheRycher]

🖤🖤🖤🙏🙏🙏🖤🖤🖤

[@agirlsname7159]

What session are these stems from? A show? Studio alternates? I have every second of Parallels memorized I'm curious what era these are from! Wonderful!

[@progressive_metal]

This is FW song, but played by other band (voice & guitars). Who are these guys?

[@georgiosdoumas2446]

As Mark replied in another comment "Actually that is Gregg Analla singing and Nick Van Dyk playing guitar and Sean the bass player from Redemption."

[@pstewartdrum]

Damn sounds so close in many ways.

[@mauriciohernandezdiaz9825]

Who's singing on this?

[@BadgerNCarolina]

I think it's Gregg Analla, Mark's former and unfortunately late singer from Slavior days.

[@MrShanonglass]

I spoke with God just the other day. And God said to me..”Have you ever heard of Mark Zonder”? To which I replied..”Yes, God he is an absolutely amazing drummer my favorite” And God said to me..”I wish I could play drums half as good as Mark”

[@reynoldreyno3368]

Sir mark your style are stolen by DT drummer 😂
