Nice reaction and great analysis bro, yeah Vlad is a bad ass. I have another suggestion for you since you really enjoyed this. I think you would really enjoy reacting to Dmitry Kim's drum playthrough of "Captain Clock" by Jinjer. Dmitry was the prior drummer to Vlad, and let's just say, I have no idea what's in the water in Ukraine when it comes to metal drummers, but Dmitry is frickin phenomenal too. He would have been the permanent drummer, (Their prior drummer Eugene had a horrific accident and needed to be replaced) but he couldn't commit to Jinjers' touring schedule, so he was just a "fill" in drummer until they could find a permanent replacement which ended up being Vlad. Peace and as always, stay Metal. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶

Vlad actually clamps his snare to the bass drum with one of those hihat stand clamps. I had the same problem for a long time. I was hitting the snare hard enough to make the entire drum+stand bounce and start slowly creeping backwards. I use a Gibraltar stealth racks to mount my snare & rack toms and that solved the problem but prior to that I was using a bungee cord looped around my bass drum let to stop my snare moving around.

Flipping, or butt end, your sticks gives a fatter and louder sound and has a slightly darker cymbal strike as well. Think about the tonal difference from nylon and wood tipped sticks. When I play I am constantly flipping for tonal purposes. Butt end tom stroke sound so good...And generally, at least for me anyways, you can clean up your stroke and purposely not hit the rim and gouge your sticks. It's an old school thing...

Usually, drummers in live performances are perched upon a drum rise which sometimes isn't a solid platform and has some flexibility to it - so when they play hard the entire kit seems to wiggle and move even if the drum hardware is high quality.

You can be sure to have other Jinjer fan comments and followers if you react to more Jinjer videos (me included). But I watch your others reactions and because and I didn't find it I am curious to knows if you looked at Rush. It is an old band but their drummer, who passed away this year, was consider one of the best ever (some seeing him as the goat). If you have no clue who he is or the band, you could find entire rabit hole.. and the Rush army too :) I think Neil Peart is still the youngest drummer introduced to the hall of fame of drummer at the age of 23.. Just in case, if Pisce is the intro to Jinjer, Tom Sawyer (official) is the one for Rush.

Honestly a better video to really get a good look at Vlad's skills is "jinjer - pisces (live session)" - in that song he plays a ton of ghost notes and has a lot of very tight changes up and down along with intros and outros carefully timed to the rest of the group. It's just about as good, in technical terms, as any drummer I've ever heard.
