fast, tight, simple, that's what all the death metal is all about! but respect to this man! pete "commando" sandoval and mike "human tornado" harris (napam death) and dave lombardo were the grand/godfathers of fast and good drumming! double bass, blast beats. they were and still are icons! respect to them!!! horns up! \,,/
Never heard him without the triggers till I saw this. The hits are right on time. It's amazing that he still has the stamina for this kind of drumming. He looks like a marathon runner to me.
while i love pete, one of my favorite death metal drummer he most certainly did not invent the blast beat. charlie benantes performance on milk predates anything pete did. i believe mick from napalm death also did it before pete did. out of all the metal drummers i dont know of any instances before charlie, but there was a jazz drummer in the 70s that did it.
I was never a fan of Morbid Angel. But Pete is simply a legend in the drumming community. Because of what he was doing back then, his stuff is a benchmark and a starting point for the extreme drummers of today. Blast on commando!
I don't think this is too sloppy...realize that he recorded the drum tracks for Altars of Madness and Blessed Are the Sick without a click track, and they're nearly spot on.
Bro, I don't wanna be that person, but most of old metal, I mean like all, is recorded without using click track, and nowadays there are people who still doing it
@jacobjohansson not bad??? just one thing: in modern blastbeat you do not use the rim, that is another technique from jazz, and it's "cheating". He is an awesome drummer, if you don't like him...then it is ok. but respect pete sandoval. Technique is only a tool to express yourself, to make music you also need to put your soul on it... like sandoval
omg omg I just finished watching this vid quite loud then my brother has just asked me, "What movie is that?" lollllllllllllllllll Pete is indeed Commnado!
asi ha tocado siempre, incluso desde que estaba en terrorizer ha sonado asi (chekate el World Downfall de 1987, muy bueno) puede que ya no suene tan cabron, pero en su momento fue una sensacion y al iwal que lombardo influyó a muchos por que nadie tocaba como ellos aunque digas que kataklysm lo hacian antes cosa que no es cierto, el primer disco de kataklysm es del 95 y bathory NUNCA hizo blastbeat, solo doble pedal cagando leches en su epoca Octagon/Requiem... y monolith, no los conozco ^^
@chilotemaniaco puede ser... pero pete es el padre del blast beat, y todos y cada uno de los bateristas que han tocado death metal desde entonces le debemos mucho a este tipo (yo le copié la posición del brazo para el blastbeat); Inferno es un chingonazo que entre mas viejo mas rapido, pero pete lo hizo al menos una DECADA antes que él ;)
El blast beat en realidad es un recurso usado por los bateristas de jazz en los 50 czcams.com/video/Q4My8VzkZLI/video.html en mi opinión quienes popularizaron el blast beat y lo extrapolaron al metal extremo fueron Mick Harris de Napalm Death y Dave Grave de Repulsion, los padres del grindcore, aunque es cierto que Pete Sandoval es de los pioneros no creo que sea el padre de esa técnica.
dude roddy is an amazing guy. i met him and he is the nicest due you could ever meet. and he is amazing so don't talk crap about him. and knowing roddy and his rep. he is prob. amazing friends w/ pete. he has an amazing rep in the metal world. cuz he is an amazing metal drummer and he can still play amazing stuff. he grew up on jazz and dave lombardo. he can incorporate amazing fills and stuff into his playing and he can keep time better than anyone else. i bet pete couldnt keep time at 25 bpm.
@MusicSportsPolitics Um... yes it will be... two different drummers might play 260 bpm at varying levels of volume (not much because that's the beginning of "ludicrous speed" aka 260-300 bpm) depending on which kicks harder due to having done more power exercises or something, but the difference between 240 and 260 will be speed, obviously, and also volume... because the motion just gets smaller as you go faster. That is literally HOW you get faster in the first place.
Triggers basicly register the hits you make on your drums(toms bassdrums) and send a signal to a module, wich makes it into a pre-programmed sound. So every hit sounds exactly the same nomatter how hard you are hitting. Its very handy for drummers who play with 2 bassdrums cus its hard to make them sound the same akousticly. Also Many Death Metal gets alot of extra "punch" if they use them, it kinda comes with the scene nowadays..
@sailorpsycho ja! kataklism, monolith, bathory, etc... y bandas de antes ya lo hacian antes de la formacion de morbid, mas encima hace rebotar la baqueta, su pulgar ni lo utiliza y no afina su bat. la perfeccion se la da los cabezales adheridos a los parches.
He was doing stuff in the late 80's and early 90's that people could have only dreamed of doing back then.
Absolutely!!!!
I came close, so close in 1993....
czcams.com/video/6nAGFUDs8WQ/video.html
I want Pete Sandoval to play a show for my wedding....Just him, he can play blast beats for four straight hours for the guests.
Just now read this comment and it is still the best comment of the year.
🤣🤣👊🏽🤘🏾
Comment of the decade.
".....I declare you husband and wife.
......
....
....you may blast beat now."
@@dertotti83 i blast beat my wife
Pete "The Feet" is probably the best death metal drummer ever. There are other greats, but he remains the best.
Facts!
Probably? Lolthe man is a god lol
One of the greatest drummers alive folks
THE BEST!!!
No doubt, gotta love Pete!
he should knock on people's doors like that
😂😂
I wouldn't open the door, even if I wanted to 😁
people would think he's shooting a gun at them🤣
His blast speed is nothing amazing, but his stamina and power along with his fast double bass is what makes him the commando.
this is not just drumming pete is the first chapter of death metal history!
Cryptic Slaughter were sorta the first chapter of Death Metal drumming.
pete sandoval was & to me still is the best death metal drummer. he set the standards. his drumming on fall from grace is awsome.
fast, tight, simple, that's what all the death metal is all about!
but respect to this man! pete "commando" sandoval and mike "human tornado" harris (napam death) and dave lombardo were the grand/godfathers of fast and good drumming! double bass, blast beats. they were and still are icons!
respect to them!!!
horns up! \,,/
Ken Owen - Carcass!!
And Gene Hoglan.
Fast, ok, but simple?
@@Vaccaei comparing wirh jazz f.e. yes, simple 🤘
Yeah fuck Infant Annihilator
salvadorian power!!!
Amen to that
Great! For those wondering, this was filmed in 1995, yeah, that's 25 years ago!
Nah, this is early 2000s sometime
It was filmed in 2005
This was when they reunited with Dave. Like 2006.
Gene Hoglan and Pete. Best metal drummers
Don't forgert Lars Ulrich!!!
Nicholas barker ??
@@O_zitas_tis_geitonias another great one
Never heard him without the triggers till I saw this. The hits are right on time. It's amazing that he still has the stamina for this kind of drumming. He looks like a marathon runner to me.
this has crushed my dreams of being the best drummer ever. MORBID ANGEL ROCKS
the sound of his cymbals are orgasmic
No words. Simply untouchable 🥁
Pete is hands down the inventor of the blast beat.. he's one of the best in the game.. not to mention he's a super nice guy..
while i love pete, one of my favorite death metal drummer he most certainly did not invent the blast beat. charlie benantes performance on milk predates anything pete did. i believe mick from napalm death also did it before pete did. out of all the metal drummers i dont know of any instances before charlie, but there was a jazz drummer in the 70s that did it.
You're all wrong !...Sheila E invented the blast beat.
Blast beats were around long before. Also, Cryptic Slaughter came years before Morbid Angel.
Relentless double bass, great songs ..... one of my favourite bands.
@Bret the Threat Zagar use some speakers bro
The man who started the whole blast beats.
nop
@@temme528 who it was then???
@@erikmuniz6905 exactly mans is a legend...
I think Discharge beat him to it but Commando Sandoval is the guy who tightened it all up singlehandedly
No. Grind bands like Napalm Death blasted way before he came on the scene
The power of the Mighty MORBID ANGEL is unleashed!
Pete Dominates people's lifes.
Imagine how insane this shit was over 10 years ago!!
Your post is 12 years old, and add the 10 years to it that you commented and that would be about right for then...
@@ericwilliams538 lol
🤦🏻♂️
I did for real
Pete being the speedy demon that he is .. :P
Commando Rules!
Commando Dominate!
I don't get how he keeps the double bass on accurate timing. Truly amazing.
I was never a fan of Morbid Angel. But Pete is simply a legend in the drumming community. Because of what he was doing back then, his stuff is a benchmark and a starting point for the extreme drummers of today. Blast on commando!
beast death metal drummer ever
The best Salvadoran drummer ever

Awesome. PETE DOMINATES!!!!! Hail Morbid Angel.
So many drummers play blast beats, but no one plays them like Pete.

Pete The feet LMFAO
One of the MASTERS!
One of best drummers !Total storm

Pionero. Fundamental baterista. Muchas gracias.
I don't think this is too sloppy...realize that he recorded the drum tracks for Altars of Madness and Blessed Are the Sick without a click track, and they're nearly spot on.
Bro, I don't wanna be that person, but most of old metal, I mean like all, is recorded without using click track, and nowadays there are people who still doing it
Click tracks are a waste just learn the material and kill it
erickh82082 no if u want to kill the track learn some sense of time/metronome
@@johnvega2696 most musicians just already have it.
Lucky Sixteen no they have it from practicing it. Can’t just know time like that
The best drummer for all times , respect. \m/
Behold The Godfather of Blastbeats!
Pete brutal, extraordinary, bestial, machine !!! .... the greatest in history !!!
This is my idol.. i wanna perform soooo bad.. but i dont have this guys wrist action... gravity blasts for daaaays
What a great drummer!
The best drummer ever , respect. \m/
if he wants to have a bulldozer sound as toms roll, that's up to him.
creator of the modern metal drumming
Those bass drums are sick!
astonishing performance from Sandoval
Holy shit, I had goosebumps listening to this shiiiite!
Pete is cybernetic, clearly.
this must be SO exhausting!
What a legend
sweet jesus christ, that is the shit only sandoval can do, he owns
Every time I watch him play from back then it just seems like it shouldn't work but then he fucking nails it. Its amazing. Whole body player.
Oh my fucking god. He's like a fucking machine.
@jacobjohansson not bad??? just one thing: in modern blastbeat you do not use the rim, that is another technique from jazz, and it's "cheating". He is an awesome drummer, if you don't like him...then it is ok. but respect pete sandoval.
Technique is only a tool to express yourself, to make music you also need to put your soul on it... like sandoval
I just learned heal toe double bass after over 25 years of drumming. Because I needed to learn some Morbid Angel songs. Pete is the best to do it!
The King of one Foot Blasts!
GODDAMNIT!!!!! Pete DOMINATES!
Amazing death metal drummer! Holy fucking brutal!

@chilotemaniaco puede ser... pero pete es el padre del blast beat, y todos y cada uno de los bateristas que han tocado death metal desde entonces le debemos mucho a este tipo (yo le copié la posición del brazo para el blastbeat);

Действительно машина 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
i don't care about triggers. Pete's still the best
