Charlie is the man for the job. No doubt about it. Mad respect to him for being such a consistent, and incredible drummer for longer than I've been alive. The man is a machine! 🙏🥁
But he can't write a different tune
Charlie himself threw me a drumstick after finishing cowboys from Hell during Metallica‘s Detroit Michigan show. He threw it directly at me. He pointed to me and then threw it and I caught it and it’s hanging in my room right now, one of my biggest prized possessions love the man he’s a machine.
Kickass! I was at the show!
Charlie having that moment where he misses his friends at 9:45 is beautiful. Shows us just how human these guys are and how important it is to commemorate their music. To all the people complaining about this being Pantera reunion or not just think about whats going on through their heads when playing Pantera music. Let's be grateful for all this an leave the negativity im your pocket.
It's not Pantera, obviously, but they are still doing their thing and I wouldn't mind hitting up a show sometime if I get the chance. Also, regardless if it's "Pantera" or not it doesn't change the fact that it's 4 legendary musicians performing together and I have to say judging by all the live clips I have watched they are doing a pretty good job so far!
@leadme2thebliss21 Catch a show man, caught them in Tampa a few weeks back and was not disappointed. Don't get hung up on the "name"
Totally with you there about him honouring his friends Dime and Vince. You can definitely could see Charlie meant that 100%
I felt that moment. It was deep.
I had the honor of attending the show in Austin, TX last year on Dime's birthday. They kicked ass and at one point they paused the show and brought up a bunch of friends and family to do a shot for Dime. It really was great being able to hear those songs live again.
Seeing Charlie have a moment at 9:45 remembering his close friends. 😢 youre doing em proud dude!
I got sad on that part to 😢
It sure brings the $$.
He is turning 62 this year... Goddamn! \m/
And he look like 50 "top"
Wow, yeah I’d of thought mid 40s.
Plays like 22 forreal. Probably better now than he ever was and he was elite from Spreading The Disease.
He kooks 40. And plays like hes 24
Charlie is a MASSIVE influence on the entire genre. Both as a Drummer and a Songwriter/Guitarist 🤘🔥🥁🔥🤘
Charlie is not only a great (and underrated) drummer, but he's also just a GREAT GUY!
Underrated?? 😁🤨
He gets enough attention
Thank you Charlie, for over 40 years of badass thrashing with Anthrax and for keeping the Abbott bros’ legacy alive 🤘🏼🤘🏼
The cool thing about CB is he's humble and not trying to replace Vinnie at all! Instead, making sure to honor him and his sound as a big part of the original Pantera. Awesome job continuing the legacy of the band and especially the Abbott bros!
Vinny can't be replaced it science..
I heard every single drum he hit and cymbal when Pantera was here in Winnipeg Feb 16th 2024! I have never been to seen Pantera before, but this show blew me away! Thank you so much for ALL you do to keep Vinnie and Dimebag alive in our very hearts!!!! Love you always!!! Forever a fan!!! 💀
The drum sound he gets for the intro to Indians, has to be most punishing and fullest metal beats of all time. Its perfect in every way, flawless. The whole song just wails.
I play that intro almost every time i practice. Powerful!
This kit is a work of art. Absolutely beautiful 🤩
Everyone uses triggers to gate their drums nowadays (which is awesome) but I was not expecting him to be using them for actual samples! Beautiful touch having Vinnie’s samples mixed in with the organic shells.
Tbh you can’t even hear it live. Their sound is such a mess when they open for Metallica
@@jd0879man, when I seen them in St. Louis, Pantera/Mammoth/Metallica all sounded excellent from the seats I was in!
How dealed them with the latency ? Is there like more latency with the triggers ?
Sorry dumb from a home guitarist :p
This dude does not get nearly enough credit he deserves in the world of metal drumming. He changed the game.
Damn straight. I remember hearing Among The Living for the first time back in '88 and I thought, Jesus... who is this guy! And he was like in his early 20's then. I saw them '89 and I was transfixed on the drums all night. He was a machine!
Plays for two of the biggest bands in the rock and metal genre, but "doesn't get enough credit." Yeah, okay bud.
@@ShrinkRaptor Shitthrax is low on the totem pole.
@@mikeauxbigjust because all you listen to is shitallica
@@DazMan-mo8fk Hahah! woff to nevah nevah land, yeaahhh!
One of the nicest guys I’ve ever worked with professionally!
Don’t forget that Charlie is a beast guitar player and writes most of Anthrax’s riffs. Just a crazy talented dude.
This man is 61 and still killing it!! Unreal 🤯
They need to release that ride!
Meinl needs to make their big bell in a 22 or 23
On the albums sometimes it sounds like Vinnie is hitting the lid of a trash can when he rides the bell. Whatever he was originally using was pretty wild, but Charlie's sounds great as well.
If I remember correctly vinnie used a sabian 22" power bell HH
Saw the show at Rocklahoma last September (2023). It was awesome to hear and see all these great Pantera songs played again. Charlie is killing it on this tour. 🤘
Getcha Pull. Watch It Go!!! 333
Such a badass. Watching him play Speak English or Die on the Live at Budakan video is amazing
Saw Pantera a couple weeks ago. One helluva show and Charlie was awesome.
Can't wait to hear watch/hear this live in two days in Quebec! I've been waiting for this show since they announced the reunion/tribute tour.
Charley is such a cool cat🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Awesome...... love how he brings Vinnies drum sound into life....... that's what I call honoring a true legend by a legend himself 🤘😎🤘
A lot of love went into this kit to make it sound like Vinnie's. Charlie did his homework with this. Absolute great guy. 🤘🏻
✌🏼👍🏼🤘🏼
I don't play drums. But everytime i see a drum set such as charlie's, man, i'd be excited. This guy's a legend!
Charlie is a absolute machine.... All respect for him !!
Love the 2 false bass drums. Cool way to do that without carrying extra giant ones around just for show like dome drummers
Homage to Alex VanHalen 🔥💚
This has got to be the most wholesome respectful set up I've ever seen, I love how Charie is keeping Vinnie on stage in his choice of sizes and blending the sound. Amazing drummer and friend
Charlie is a damn legend!
PAISTE! We need this 22" ride in normal production!
My old bands drummer had a 20" mega bell and it was so loud all the sound guys had to turn the mic off on that side of his kit 😅
That’s the Stormtroopers of Death Drummer!!!!!! God of Percussion
Charlie and the boys did a heartfelt and fitting job honoring Vin and Dime when I saw them last week. You can tell they really mean it. I'd definitely go to another show if they come around again. Getcha pull!
Great interview! I love you, man. You guys sound awesome. Your drumming is so good. Also, I've lost a best friend and what you guys are doing in tribute is truly amazing. Wish you all the best and keep on playing those Pantera songs we all love!
Wow!! 1 of the best professional drummers of modern-drummer magazine!! Charlie is super talented!! Amazing drum sound Live!!😎❤️☝️🤟
one of my fav drummers of all time !!
Charlie is a force to be reckoned with. Very musical drummer as well.🤘
Hearing Charlie was taking on drum duties is when I knew this could work👍
There's no other man who could have filled those shoes like Charlie. He has everything Vin did down to a "T" and St. Vin is smiling down sayin Hellyeah brother!
Damn, that's a beauty of a setup
Charlie and Nicko have been my all time favorite drummers since the ‘80’s. Iron Maiden and Anthrax have always been my favorite bands. And I’m 50 years old. Love Charlie!!!!
Charlie is doing Vinnie proud getcha pull.
Grew up listening to Charlie. State of Euphoria is still one of my favorites. He’s the reason I got away from lars when i realized Charlie was so much better as a drummer
massive respect for blending Vinnies drum samples. also makes sense haha 🤘🏼
Getcha pull charlie. He sounded fkn amazing in arlington. Before the tour started i knew he had permission to use samples from vinnie's estate but i though it was for intro stuff not triggers. Good to know.
Charlie is doing justice. He got all Vinnies drum licks to a T!
When ya bringing it to the UK? 😎
Thank god for this video this is one of my fave sounding kits!
Thank you Charlie for all of your hard work and dedication, it is well appreciated. 🤘
always a very great moment ! thanks for that
Charlie is incredible
Charlie Benante started me playing in 88. My favorite drummer ever
This was awesome. Thank you very much! 🥁
Thank you Modern Drummer for getting close to artists! Only a few stage hands get the opportunity to push those risers.
Nice to see I'm not alone in miking my snare drum with a 58! I've been wondering if anyone else does the same. I sometimes wonder if people are so hung up on the labels of a 58 being a vocal mic, and a 57 being an instrument mic, that they don't even bother to try it. I bet a lot of people would be surprised if they actually tried it out.
❤❤ beautiful kit!
hi charlie. my name is robert. that's an awesome drum set you are using. i love the paiste cymbals. they are my all time favorites. i am using paiste cymbals in my kiss tribute band alive 35
This drumkit is beautiful!! Saw them in the Metallica tour and they were amazing in getting out the spirit of Pantera out and I'm glad I saw them!! Definitely won't mind seeing them again!!
Charlie is amazing!!! He’s still got it. And does not look his age at all. He really ages well. And super nice guy.
Charlie is a fantastic drummer. He was the first guy that came to my mind as a good fit when I heard there was going to be a Pantera reunion. He carries Vinnie's torch with great skill and respect.
Really enjoyed that, Charlie!!❤
Such a great drummer, Definitely the right guy for the job. That’s cool that he’s flying the Alex Van Halen flag with the 4 kick drums!!!!
Great interview with one of the true GOAT's, who is playing another sorely missed GOAT's music every night. That must feel very surreal. It's one thing to play in a tribute band, but to actualy be THE band, not the tribute, is, I'm sure, a very emotional experience. It's pretty obvious that's the case just in the way he talks about the gig. Charlie, you've always been one of my top 10 influences, in my own playing style. I learned a lot from you my man. You've absolutely helped to make me a bettr drummer, just like Vinnie did. When I heard you were the man that would be driving this absolutely incredible lineup, I knew it was going to be special. I can think of no other players carrying the torch for Pantara, than you and Zack. Absolutey perfect fit, on and off the stage. You guys are really doing it right too. The amount of respect, and love you guys are pumping into these songs, is palpable. Kudos to the entire band for giving us this wonderful gift. Thank you so much for doing, what I'm sure at times, is a very difficult thing to do. I don't know much at all about the relationship, if any, you had with Vinnie, but even if you never met the guy, I'm sure it is at times, very emotionally taxing. I know there's obviously high points, Of course there are, you're in freakin PANTARA! How could that NOT be a huge rush? You're filling those incredible, and intimidating shoes so well man. It's a testament to your experience, and skill level, that you wear those shoes, with confidence, and pride, but also love and respect. You're the man, man. lol
saw ya at baltimore arena on feb 24th and ya killed it
Charlie the Man! Thank you for honouring Vinnie Paul in tribute to Pantera! Killing it man! One of my favourites drummers of all time.
Much respect for Charlie. Always so nice. And a great drummer.
I've been saying it for 40+ years Charlie Benante is the best thrash drummer on the planet.... one of the best all-round drummers on the planet, any genre.
Great interview and overview.... thank you!!
Well, his band must be falling apart or not that good because he left them to join a band that hasn't toured or released an album since 2000-2001.
@@TheBridgesYouBurn Anthrax is the 2nd best thrash band of the Big 4 and are currently working on a new album (with Charlie, since he writes all the music)... and they have a tour planned when all members are free from their side projects (including Charlie)
..... try and keep up. He even says that in the video.
@@RakelaK67 Megadeth is second.
Saw them at louder than life and his kit was thunderous! Cool to see it up close.
Man, I have always LOVED Charlie!!!
Beautiful set up. Charlie's playing is impeccable. He did Vinnie justice 🤘🏼
👌🏼
2:08 I hope they make that 22" mega bell ride into a signature product
Definitely, sounds awesome
That kit is immaculate!
Charlie is a mad man on the drums
JHON OTTO ! What a killer drummer
Charlie is the best! 💥💥
Such a humble individual. Charlie is a great role model.
This kit is just beautiful. I love these Paiste rude cymbals.
Awesome!
Cant fucking wait to see them.
I had a blast when I saw them last August. Felt like I was hit by a truck the next day.
That ride w the huge bell is wild. Luana Dametto from Crypta plays one kinda like that.
I was thinking his kit had an Alex Van Halen vibe with the extra bass drums, Alex had some wild kits, what Charlie's missing is a fire extinguisher, Alex always kept one on his kit in case the pyro got out of hand.
Paiste, we got to get that *22” RUDE MegaBell Ride Cymbal* made for the masses! 🤘🏻
2 amazing guys
Say what you will about wether pantera should have reformed but you can't deny they picked one of the best possible drummers for the job. Charlie is an absolutely incredible drummer and I can't wait to see him with anthrax at Manchester Apollo later this year
Great looking kit
Those kick drums 🤘🙏
Thats a dreamed set, wish I had one like that someday, Charlie is the man!
Love the artwork on them kicks, I can't think of anything more appropriate to have there. Cheers to whoever came up with that idea.
I'm not a huge Pantera fan but Charlie is old school and that's good enough for me! Great video!
Anthrax is slowly but surely becoming one of my favorites and love the fact they chose Charlie to play in the Pantera concerts 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Charlie is the man!!
Charlie has always been my favourite metal drummer, cos of him I've played a novo China since the late 80s. And I love the novo as much as he does 👌🤘🤘😁
Saw Pantera in Denver last year. It was so fucking good.
I don't think Charlie has enough cymbals. lol Boy Charlie is all business. He's taking this Pantera shit seriously! Great guy!
I need that ride cymbal.
Great to see Charlie's set up. Suggestion for the video crew/editor. Shoot at 60 fps so you don't have to use an optical flow for slow motion, and can use frame sampling instead. The globby artefacts are kind of gnarly.
Charlie is the man! One bad ass drummer that’s for sure!
Love the Mouth for War teaser at the end. I was honestly hoping he'd tease a few songs haha
Nice set indeed 👌🏾
Triggering to Vinnie's drum sounds is pretty cool
good stuff
