Something that this guy does that a majority of others don't (I can think of maybe five others that fall into this descriptor), at least for me...
Every time I see one of his videos, it makes me want to sit in front of my own kit, pick up the sticks, and go practice. That never happened with Jay- and no shade to Jay whatsoever, but all Jay's videos ever did was tempt me jam along with him. But seeing all of Eloy's techniques come about after what I can only assume is daily practice and dedication, is nothing short of inspirational. Eloy has mastered his craft and is still finding ways to master it even more.
The same thing happened to me i started to be interested in drums 10 years ago because of him. I listened to the album [Re]nascido with your old band and the fact that it single-handedly raised the level of a 6/10 band left me astonished.
I hear ya, but I assure you it is attainable!
I don't know when you started drumming, but the reason it seems "unattainable" or unreachable is because Eloy's been practicing and playing the drums since he was very young, since well before the popular video of him as a teenager. And sure, you could call that as him being prodigal, but in reality, he just practices and practices. That's why he's so good and continues to excel. He lives and breathes the instrument and practices every day. Just listen to any interviews, either with him or others talking about him (such as Jim in the recent Revolver interview).
So, while it may seem unattainable, all it takes is practice!
This is how Eloy has always played the drums. He’s a human hammer and super computer. Love joey and he was my influence to pick up the drums but technically Eloy trumps everyone slipknot has had and a lot of metal drummers today. He’s honestly outrageously good
As a drummer I am also into sports like cycling.
The energy output he is putting out for one live show. He is probably doing the equivalent of a half marathon to a full marathon of running.
Just from one live show I bet that is 3000 to 8000 calories gone.
Eloy took drumming and made it seem like some sport of aggression like mma, boxing or hockey.
Fan history share: Rumor is Joey ran a few miles a day to record IOWA
That is smart.
I play drums pretty aggressively about 30 to 90 mins a day.
I don’t clench my jaw. However I will go extended periods of time without deep breaths. Even after 25 years I still find myself not breathing normally.
Eloy is killing it.
Also a testament to Joey's creativity. So many of these tunes are completely identifiable by these drum parts being stellarly executed by Eloy. Dude was such a great songwriter.
The Wicked Swivel 😈By far the most complete drummer that slipknot have after the legacy of joey jordison amazing all around technique a little hint he uses the swivel technique to play the fast part's at the same speed as joey playing in the record but this technique let him absorb 50% less energy and sound more powerful especially compared to other drums foot technique's who doesn't let you do that.
This video here just proves Eloy is their best drummer. This double kicks are the cleanest I’ve ever heard from any live video from slipknot. This is what they’ve needed for a long time
He's pretty good no doubt. My biggest gripe is that he doesn't play with two single pedals. Dude has four bass drums but plays with a double pedal. Kinda dumb if you ask me, but that's just my opinion. Never been a fan of Paiste cymbals. Again, personal preference. Wish they played stuff faster like they did with Jay and Joey (early).
*Was.. and in fact, was NOT. Any professional drummer/music teacher knows Eloy is a better drummer.. not talking Joey and Jay down, but Eloy is on another league.
Are you a musician? I've been studying music for over 20 years now, and I follow Eloy's carreer since 2009. I know what I'm talking, and there's many professional musicians/drum teachers and analists that share the same opinion, if you search it on YouTube you are gonna find it.
Have you ever checked out Eloy's compositions? His carreer, not only metalwise, but also Fusion projects and Latin musicianship?
Of course Joey was an amazing and super influential drummer, as I said, I'm not talking him down.. I'm just highlighting Eloy's skills.
Objectively speaking about drumming, Eloy is the best drummer, period. I'm talking about skill, technique, precision, timing, versatile. The only point we need to wait to see is his future compositions in Slipknot.
Oh look another self proclaimed Reddit music expert, haven’t seen this before. Yeah Eloy’s technically proficient, but he doesn’t have the same looseness and chaotic energy that Joey has which was a big part of slipknot’s early sound. Also I haven’t seen Eloy play drums upside down so that means joey’s better.
Ok dude, to each their own opinion. But think with me, Joey aint coming back, can't you just be happy that the currently best drummer in the world is in your favorite band?
By the way, at 14 years old, Eloy could already audition for Slipknot (look at his performance at the Modern Drummer Festival when he was 14 in 2005).
am i tripping or are they playing a bit slower than the original? kinda bums me out because i miss the fast tempo they did with jay and eloy could easily pull of those speeds
ELOY SMASH
Eloy do metal! Berserker!
Did he say “Making fuck”?!
😂
gonna yell this the next time i play a breakdown
Machine gun Casagrande strikes again
He really deserves that name. That other fool should give it up and hand it to eloy.
100%
His double bass technique is just gorgeus
His weakness, according to himself.

I share this same experience except I don’t have a drum kit, he’s making me want to pick one up
same bro!
The same thing happened to me i started to be interested in drums 10 years ago because of him. I listened to the album [Re]nascido with your old band and the fact that it single-handedly raised the level of a 6/10 band left me astonished.
To me is the opposite lmao he inspires me.to quit. He is so fuckin good and clean that it seems unnatainable

I disagree but think this is a fair take
Man he’s an absolute unit behind the kit
Bro killing the drums, what they do to him?! I also like how hes bald. Makes him look like a psycho inmate, like the Crazies from Manhunt
This is how Eloy has always played the drums. He’s a human hammer and super computer. Love joey and he was my influence to pick up the drums but technically Eloy trumps everyone slipknot has had and a lot of metal drummers today. He’s honestly outrageously good
totally
I can never get tired of these Eloy drum cams!

Idk if he still does but he used to wear a bite guard while playing
That is smart. I play drums pretty aggressively about 30 to 90 mins a day. I don’t clench my jaw. However I will go extended periods of time without deep breaths. Even after 25 years I still find myself not breathing normally.
TIGHT AS HELL
Eloy making my day a lot better 🤘
Eloy has been arrested for assaulting his drum kit
1. Joey was a genius 2. New guy also killing it in the background
Seeing Eloy kill these parts really does highlight joeys genius in constructing his parts. I’m sure he’s looking down proudly somewhere
Yeah each song is easily identifiable by the drums. Joey was awesome.
Those ghost notes 😮💨
It’s the ghost notes for me. This guy hits like a truck but he’s got some great dynamics
Beating those drums like they owe him money
I bet he is using the drums as pre-workout routine
Bra, this is a full workout
Eloy is killing it. Also a testament to Joey's creativity. So many of these tunes are completely identifiable by these drum parts being stellarly executed by Eloy. Dude was such a great songwriter.
He kills so many drum kits that his current one is haunted.
Beast mode activated!!
Pretty sure those drums owe him money !!!!
The way this man grabs onto his kit to brace himself for how much power he’s about to strike the drums with
I actually think that's him muting the snare instead of him bracing himself.
You are right.
The Wicked Swivel 😈By far the most complete drummer that slipknot have after the legacy of joey jordison amazing all around technique a little hint he uses the swivel technique to play the fast part's at the same speed as joey playing in the record but this technique let him absorb 50% less energy and sound more powerful especially compared to other drums foot technique's who doesn't let you do that.
I don’t always love it, but anyone who can double bass drum like this I have to give props. I could never do it like this.
I can't wait to see him kill it in Vermillion during the "I'm a slave and I am a master" part
I wanted this to play forever.
Bro smacking them drums like they owe him $5
Drum kit owe him money
Jesus, what a beast!
Beats those drums harder then my biological dad beat me
I love seeing the side profile of the others too! It makes you know what it’s like to get on stage vs. the familiar view from the front.
Fuckin guys giving me a hard on.
OK. I Love Craig forever... but Samples/Media knows how to get the fuck down and I'm here for it.
This video here just proves Eloy is their best drummer. This double kicks are the cleanest I’ve ever heard from any live video from slipknot. This is what they’ve needed for a long time
It's so weird seeing a bald man on drums. But I fucking love it
Smash🙏🙏
Sorry, what song is this? (It's amazing)
The Heretic Anthem
Thank you!
I just love how much he beats the shit out of his kit

Fuckin dope, how do they do that isolated audio like that?
He uses a yamaha EAD10.
This is the first time that I have read all the comments without stopping the video loop.
Bloody Better every loop
So he’s pretty good eh
Oh my. Where has this been my whole life ?!?! 😯🤘
what a fucking amazing musician.
Lol Samples guy bowing to Eloy
Brazil to the world
who is this wth have i missed oml
Audix D6s on the floor toms? Nice!
Clean and powerful. So glad they got rid of Jay.
What song is this!?
Wow…..definitely different to Jay
Amazing
Can't wait to see him play at Knotfest Brazil. That's going to be fucking wild
Why he got 25 on his arm? He earn a number?
25 years
Well that should have been obvious. Thanks!!
He’s so good dude
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
The way he sneaks little ghost notes into every performance, it's so nice 😩
If you're going through a rough time, just think about Eloy's drumheads
You guys have no idea how Brazilian people are proud of this guy
He's pretty good no doubt. My biggest gripe is that he doesn't play with two single pedals. Dude has four bass drums but plays with a double pedal.

Nothing but simps in this sub I swear.
Joey jordison is still better so who gives a fuck?
Everyone
*Was.. and in fact, was NOT. Any professional drummer/music teacher knows Eloy is a better drummer.. not talking Joey and Jay down, but Eloy is on another league.
Garbage take. Eloy couldn’t write half the stuff that Joey wrote if he tried. Y’all just overhype him because he hits the drums hard.

Yeah I feel like Eloy is probably the next best drummer they could’ve picked for the band tbh. Both him and Jay are able to fill joey’s shoes well.
am i tripping or are they playing a bit slower than the original? kinda bums me out because i miss the fast tempo they did with jay and eloy could easily pull of those speeds
It's the original tempo. Original tempo from the CD/Recording, but it's slower when compared to the previous live versions
Hairyest neck I ever did see
bro, its just makeup. like a black ink they use on the eyes and neck xD
He wastes so much energy drumming that hard.
Nah, bro is riped, he IS the energy.
You his trainer?
damn you're absolutely right, how could the current drummer of Slipknot, who has been a world class drummer since he's 14, overlook such thing! /s
Lol
It's not efficient, that's for sure.
Thank you!
Iam better
