According to former singer David Vincent, the band once played a prank on Sandoval by making him listen to a band that used a preprogrammed drum machine, and pretended it was a real drummer who could play faster than he could. Sandoval was gutted, and went on to practice until he managed to play faster than the machine.
To me, Pete's drumming reminds me of the precision of mathematics. Many different sets of numbers and values that come together as an elegant and precise formula to a seemingly complex equation.
Your right....and For me he also sounds very human playing. His beats are organic and his style has room to breathe even though hes fucking hauling balls. Lol. You can tell when its Pete playing versus other death metal drummers. This was great.
Good point..they have a lot of diminished, atonal, chromatic sounding stuff that just sounds spooky. My favorite is the song Diary of A Madman by OZZY, Sinister sounding chords.
They have a good drummer today and I thought K was an alright album with some notable highlight tracks like The Righteous Voice. I've heard Pete has injured his back again playing for I Am Morbid too so...
À mon avis, tout simplement le meilleur batteur Death Metal toutes périodes confondues. Quelle intensité, quelle puissance, quelle vitesse! On connait sa frappe à la prémiere fois on l'écoute, c'est brutaux. Hail Pete!!! \m/
man ! i never get tired of watching this guy pete is the shit no wonder hes one of nicholas barker`s influences among them is dave lombardo another great drummer as well and many more so ppl here dont start talking shit my taste is my taste not yours pete one of the best imho
many of the people questioning this style of drumming will never even do 100 gigs in their lives, when Pete and morbid have done thousands and like the feeling of flying
@MrBlastBeast 2nd trigger is for backup as soon as one falls out. Pete has been using a mix of triggered/miced drums live for a long time now (I think i started doing this around Gateways or Formulas...)
Pete Commando rules!!! Incredible speed and genial patterns! He is a real precursor of the blast beat and still a inspiration for all drummers in worldwide! Pete is the Death Metal!
Speed drummers are a dime a dozen. I like how precise Pete is, and his syncopation in the bridge. The rest, I can find at any studio or show, anywhere.
Piter is master real king is king latino es estrella y mastro y terrorizer es musica es colombia estrella piter gracia por tu musica es vida y felicidad y justicia en paz del mundo.
@AsAllHopeDies92 That's just his style. He isn't overly creative, but the way he plays just sounds so smooth. I can't quite explain what about his style is so intriguing.
Can't believe a short skinny guy like Pete can do such thing. One of the most precise drummers out there. "Bless Are The Sick" is probably his best work. Wanna hear him doing some really fast stuff? Listen to "World Downfall" by Terrorizer. Pete, get well, brother. Hope to see and hear you again with MB.
Pete is all about excellence in interval and timings. Be sure he thinks is himself in fact divided into all the 1/4-1/16 (32ths) divisions otherwise he would have gotten out of the pace after a 10 seconds :)
I was just readin up about pete and i guess he would practice until his body physically could not go any longer then wake up and start it all over again, and even managed to eventually go faster than a drum machine! idk if thats true but i have no problem in believing it!! PETE IS A GOD!!
is this from a dvd? Thats a very raw solid live recording, definitely captures Pete's killer distinctive feel. could've been a more beefier but I can't complain, this is too awesomel.
Dude plays this with combat boots on. wtf? That shit is hard enough to walk and march in much less punch out 32 notes on kick drums. COMMANDO! Got that shit right.
Pete Sanvoval is the Godfather...we should all remember who he is and what HE started

LOL
LOL?! Seriously?
What band
@@6.thedollar415 Most likely Mortician.
@@SuicidalGrind probably explains the speed difference between domination and FFTTF
his drum fills are so clean. Simply amazing
pete may have the most iconic blast beat of all time... as soon as you hear it you know its him.

Pete Sandoval - the drummer, the inspiration, the human DM machine.
I love the way Pete fully focuses on his drumming... it's like meditation.
No one does it better! I wish there where more drummers like Pete!
Keep it on, Pete!!!!!!! PLEASE!!
He is my favorite extreme metal (death metal)drummer.
Morbid Angel just sounds evil...more so than many other bands.
44stimulus It's atonal. The key is constantly fluctuating to give it a "backwards" feel.
Good point..they have a lot of diminished, atonal, chromatic sounding stuff that just sounds spooky. My favorite is the song Diary of A Madman by OZZY, Sinister sounding chords.
The king of the Kings the daddy of the dads the drumer of all drumers Mrs. Peter Sandoval
I'm one of those who still miss Sandoval's drumming in Morbid Angel.
BTW I hope that 2017's album could bring back the old sound stuff that i enjoyed.
Rodrigo Villarroel this aged like milk
They have a good drummer today and I thought K was an alright album with some notable highlight tracks like The Righteous Voice. I've heard Pete has injured his back again playing for I Am Morbid too so...
petes just on another level

the best drummer ever
Impresionante!! Aguante Pete Sandoval!!!
I'm proud of this Salvadoran drummer..sos el mejor cerote
pete has a hell of an endurance trip,
I have been a fan of Morbid Angel for almost 13 years and Sandoval has been the back beat for the band for all that time, and I love them both.
Considering the Video quality, the audio is pretty good. And the playing amazing.
Sem palavras para esse monstro 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Simply amazing!
This is a really good video showing the skill that Sandoval has. He really drives the band on and he makes it what it is today. GOOD JOB.
Pete drums sounds like complete song ! AMAZING !!
LEGEND.
Pete es el padre de los blast beats
man ! i never get tired of watching this guy pete is the shit no wonder hes one of nicholas barker`s influences among them is dave lombardo another great drummer as well and many more so ppl here dont start talking shit my taste is my taste not yours pete one of the best imho
Pete is of the best out there
It's the greatest thing I've ever seen!!!
D. D. Crazy and Pete Sandoval are masters!!
Legendary.
Love his style is fuckin brutal and his drumming is so damn precise
Perwersyjna Perfekcja!
He is definitely one of the best (or maybe THE BEST)drummer ever...
I think Gene Hoglan is better but Pete’s still a top tier drummer
For me Pete is the best Death metal drummer.
The Best
Master of the Masters!
THE KING!
Thank you so much for posting!
Beautyful!
Dislikes by Jealous Drummers
Pete is a GOAT.
Ive watched this video a couple dozen times thinking i knew what to expect....But all be damn if Pete isnt the greatest god damn drummer EVER!!
So gnarly.
many of the people questioning this style of drumming will never even do 100 gigs in their lives, when Pete and morbid have done thousands and like the feeling of flying
hermoso!!!!
Legend!!
morbid angel aint gonna be the same without him
The best!
The Master! \m/
great blast beats you got to have that little hop movement it helps
@MrBlastBeast 2nd trigger is for backup as soon as one falls out. Pete has been using a mix of triggered/miced drums live for a long time now (I think i started doing this around Gateways or Formulas...)
@TheDarkomen9 The reason he has 2 triggers per drum is so that each tirgger is making a different sound, making his drums sound more unique.
Pete Commando rules!!! Incredible speed and genial patterns! He is a real precursor of the blast beat and still a inspiration for all drummers in worldwide! Pete is the Death Metal!
Speed drummers are a dime a dozen. I like how precise Pete is, and his syncopation in the bridge. The rest, I can find at any studio or show, anywhere.
This comment is only true of extreme metal drumming (at this level) if you lived in Tampa, Florida in the early 90’s.
Piter is master real king is king latino es estrella y mastro y terrorizer es musica es colombia estrella piter gracia por tu musica es vida y felicidad y justicia en paz del mundo.

Pete is the master.
i agree with ya man,the trax soun identical

Commaaaaaaaaandddoooo!!!
Real old school morbid angel are the pioneers of death metal! New bands never born at their time! The best pete
A Ghoul playing Drums...Pete Sandoval...
He's the best!
cool music!! i wonder if they ever play in the us?
awesomr
Can't believe a short skinny guy like Pete can do such thing. One of the most precise drummers out there. "Bless Are The Sick" is probably his best work. Wanna hear him doing some really fast stuff? Listen to "World Downfall" by Terrorizer.
Pete, get well, brother. Hope to see and hear you again with MB.
tnaktnom
I don't believe Pete is short in height. 5'10" at least.
He is rail thin though.
@SteelProphet Okay, but I don't see any tom mics here. So maybe he uses only triggers on them and so the backup is even more important?
why slag Pete off? He is a legendary death metal drummer. Respect pete, you are a true legend of Metal.
Profesor rayado!
The man, the legend, unbelievable. He is the best drummer ever and I don't even like the genre.
fun fun fun

word.
fucking amazing
Commando Pete bang at it!!!!
mane he’s just the fucking best
@Drutek i think Seige were the first to blast beat, then Repulsion and last Napalm, but im not 100 percent sure.
is this from a dvd? Thats a very raw solid live recording, definitely captures Pete's killer distinctive feel. could've been a more beefier but I can't complain, this is too awesomel.
The effing commando at his finest!
Is there special Live Paris 2005 dvd from Morbid Angel?
This is not level - expert this is level - Satan.
pete sandoval was born in santa ana ,El salvador right?
Holy shit. Pete the fucking commando sandoval.
@MrBlastBeast exactly!
look at his boots!!!
pete kicks my ass. \../
I guess you have not heard the Terrorizer demos or seen all the other Terrorizer party shows before he recorded Altars and World Downfall
@22bryant really!!!!
does anyone know what kind of ride is he using on this live?
Well....This one goes like 2 times 5 stars shit!!!! I´ll give complete 10 stars!! He really is commando.
Commando!
now for a question that matters what is the sabian cymbal set up anyone know?????
his crashes I think are AAX and AA. china's idk or hats.
COMMANDO IS THE FUCKING MAN!!!
Why that slow? He he. Pete is one of the greatest metal drummers for sure.
Just like Slayer, another legendary band that is nothing without their iconic drummer.
wot are the secondary triggers for ?
Dude plays this with combat boots on. wtf? That shit is hard enough to walk and march in much less punch out 32 notes on kick drums. COMMANDO! Got that shit right.
Greatest drummer of all time. No argument
WATCH DREAM LORE FROM EL SALVADOR
