      Absolutely, the only change I'd really make is to have him playing his part with Tempesta's energy from the original part, really hammering the drums. Other than that, he really brought a lot to the song.

      It's funny to hear him turn the song into almost a big stadium anthem, instead of the industrial metal song it was. I feel he brings a light/positive energy to an otherwise brooding/droning song.

    In my early 20s I was a singer/songwriter and recorded about 20 songs that had Frank Bellucci on the drums. He came to my producer's studio in Dix Hills, Long Island - listened to each song once and knocked out an amazing drum track for each song like it was nothing. An incredible musician, so cool to see him on here!

      I'm struggling to believe the bit... how did he not know this song?!? He absolutely NAILED the (I think) 3 breaks in the 2nd half of the song. I haven't been playing music as long as this fella (only 30 years on my end) but, straight up, if that was a legitimate first hear, then it was a ridiculously great performance.

    • @viktormuerte
      @viktormuerte Год назад +19

      @timhoferer8822 Frank is obviously a professional with years of session work under his belt. Like, the first thing he did was create a lead sheet. The lead sheet isn't just a roadmap through the song; the act of writing it informs your muscle memory of things like song structure, breaks, accents, etc. This, plus his experience, helps make the performance extremely clean. Dirk Verbeuren's "hears the song for the first time" performance is kind of similar since, like Frank, Dirk is also a session drummer and he employed a similar technique when learning the song assigned to him (mr. Brightside.)

    This is a fucking masterpiece. His accents and change of moods fits this song so well. How he builds on the verses by later adding the tom hits, the chorus kick accents the vocal runs perfectly. He actually adds the break on the last verse to add more effect than constantly doing it. The toms on DOITBABY make it feel like a dance hit, which makes that vocal line so much more fun.

I love his take when he pushed the toms on the back end of the guitar riff. If you are not familiar with Frank Belucci, give him a good listen.

    As a professional drummer I can say that this is as good as it gets. This is what you get for laying down the hours and practising hard, devoting yourself to the craft and the business. Not only does he perform with attitude, confidence and presence, but he's also able to write perfectly understandable notes with efficiency, so that he can focus entirely on the painting of the canvas and orchestrating the coordination. This is a hard working musician. Technical? Indeed, those preparations were needed for this, but the energy and presence comes through experience of working in the field and playing all sort of contexts, developing listening skills. He's not playing for the cameras, he is focused on the task and locking in with the music. It's evident that he has played a large variety of styles, as he is also perfectly adaptable and can make several musical variations in such narrow turns. This was a perfectly executed first take and could have been the actual take in the studio session for the track, well done Sir! Now, I got to hear your ballads.

I honestly don't know what the heck is going on with Rob Zombie drums but they sound like something that a 5 year old comes up with, the OG is all click clock click clack nonsense there is no groove or structure at all ... come to think of it this is why I rather enjoy the RZ tracks as remixes only since they offer more and even if it's "electronic music" remix I don't ask too much from the drums anyway, when they are live drums and a heavy track then every instrument needs to be heavy but the OG drums are meh ...

      I've got a serious question for you, man- Is the negative flipped on this video, or was he briefly holding his sticks backwards in traditional grip, in the beginning? Did you ever see him play with traditional grip? Sorry for the odd question, but I come mostly from a marching percussion background, and since I was 14 or so, traditional grip was the only way I could play properly... so seeing him seemingly grip the sticks backwards really stuck out. EDIT: Just noticed that he was doing it on the thumbnail image. His left hand grip (actually done in his right hand... I can now see, based on his shirt, that the negative wasn't flipped) wasn't a technically good grip... it was like the funky way you see some jazz drummers do it. Neither here nor there, but... just wondering. They guy's obviously a great player, with matched grip.

      @@Gruuvin1 That's not how traditional grip works. There's a grip for the left hand, and a grip for the right. This dates back to military use of the snare drum, while marching; because everything in the military is (ideally) standardized, the drums were always slung to the left, necessitating a different grip for the left hand. So yeah- I think it's obvious that being lefthanded has nothing to do with traditional grip.

My point is that he's a left handed drummer, and so if you saw him holding a traditional grip backwards, then that's probably why. Makes perfect sense to me. You don't HAVE to have been on a strict drum line to learn traditional grip the 'correct' way.... Maybe he just chose to learn it backwards because he wanted to angle his snare that way on his lefty set.

    This is the best interpretation of anything I’ve seen in this “first time” series by far. Well done!

    I 100% thought this was going to be an absolute bust because of his lack of enthusiasm and confidence in what was going on and then this man killed it. Arguably better than the original. Amazing. I love watching these masters.

    The syncopation that matches the vocal line in the chorus is absolute perfection. Made a good song great.

    Holy shit I've watched all of these but I've never been more impressed. Huge Zombie fan and he absolutely killed it. Honestly, it could have been better than the original.

    His accurate interpretation, charting, and execution of the breaks and accents is incredible.
    I could picture the rest of the band on stage the first time with their last minute, substitute drummer, and nothing but “hell yes!” when they realize he knows the song so well.
    What a pro… respect sir!

      I doubt it, these guys are using AI to pull the drums out, its why the rest of the song sounds muted and missing a lot of highs and lows in the vocals, guitar and bass.
      Unless they somehow can get the stems from a studio recording of this song or just get a band to record the rest of the song for this poupous its unlikely they can mix it well.

      @@lloidffxi I mean, I have the stems for Dragula. If I could get his drum track, I could mix it down. I could also try mixing it from the youtube audio, but it wouldn't be as nice in quality.
