Drum Teacher Reacts: SJC Family PATRICK GALANTE from Ice Nine Kills Drum Cam! 

Thanks for all the kind words! Keep up with the great content.

I saw Ice Nine Kills for the first time live last year and it was an incredible show!! Made me an instant fan. The band was so tight and the entertainment was out of this world. Also to your point about money the band apparently makes a ton of money off of merch. They’ve really adopted the horror genre and used it to their advantage!

INK is INCREDIBLE live! Galante is unmatched.... He is phenomenal. Not to mention they are the sweetest group of dudes! P.S.- this particular song is based on the movie American Psycho.

Patrick is a beast behind the kit!!! Enjoy!!

nice Ice Nine Kills finally making it hear.

Love INK. They are sick. You should definitely check more out.

The Drums are styled after movie theater popcorn buckets including simulated popcorn 🍿 on the rim. Buckets are slightly bloodied. Stage show based on classic 50s cinema styles..

Been listening to INK for years, didnt realize he hit this hard lol

AWESOME 🎉 didn't think I would like this but it was ULTRA COOL🥁🥁🔥🔥

The song that was playing in the video was "Hip to be Scared" inspired by one of my favorite horror films "American Psycho". You should definitely check out the song on its own, the lyrics and melodies are amazing. I will always be a lover of Ice Nine Kills, and Patrick Galante is probably one of my favorite drummers. Hope you enjoyed!! 🤘❤

If you liked the style of this song, another one you should take a look at is This Is The End. A FANTASTIC song, although it is a bit on the longer side

I coughed out my weed smoke. You had me at the given you longer joke.

Communion of the cursed, Funeral derangements, stabbing in the dark, American Nightmare, IT is the end been listening to them since the predator becomes the prey and going to see them live this year and MIW

This is fucking awesome!! Patrick is my cousin!!

So glad Patrick Galante is getting the recognition he so insanely deserves, along with INK. Saw them in July with FIR and have been a dedicated crazy psycho fan ever since !! ♥️🖤♥️🖤

Great reaction as always, heard the band before but never watched a drum playthrough, pleasantly surprised! Speaking of new songs and clean playing though, hoping to see you react to jay postones playthrough of "war of being" soon

Check out there older drum Cam videos really get to know them!!

Theatric, melodic metal like this is not really my jam, but god that's some TIGHT, HEAVY drumming! Also love that wild popcorn kit.

Thanks all. Cheers Andrew, IX : I for Ice , IX for 9 , X for kills…. Mashed down to IX…. Brilliant marketing! Their official music videos are a “Bit” more graphic, As are their live videos. Chose the DrumCam, but suggest watching the official video based on American Psycho is amazing. The band Is so tight; clean and harsh vocals are provided by multiple band members. The Silver Scream was their breakout CD. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Nice reaction man! Drum parts of INK are interesting and challenging to play! Makes so much fun! He's a beast!

great stuff and great advert for sjc drums it was great drumming also but a bit like they said were doing the whole set mate but were finishing early so squeeze it all into 1 track lol

You need to react to him playing stabbing in the dark live

That was very nice!

Are you intimated by us? Death Metal.

Did you say hello "Andrew youtube here" on purpose? lol

Wait......who is this Andrew that this youtube guy keeps talking to? Lol

INK very good reaction. Lamb of God have released a brilliant high quality drum cam. Art Cruz live in mexico city 'laid to rest'. Please review that next! Thank you for the videos!

Hi Andrew. Slightly off topic, but have you ever reacted to the live version of Child in Time by Deep Purple before. The one where the audience have to stay silent and still? It’s become my new favourite song, however I’m really interested in Ian Paice’s drum set up. It’s the only song I’ve ever seen where the drums are set up like that and just curious as to why and how it differs from others on a technical standpoint, if that makes sense?

The closest I’ve seen to being from the El Estepario school of pounding..

Will you react to more Ice Nine Kills?

now that you mentioned Rock Beat One and MJ… INK does do a cover of Thriller 😮Ice Nine Kills style

When are you going to do a show about Mitch Mitchell, a truly iconic drummer?

ANDY, I love your website, and I quite like that unpronounceable name amateur drummer who you keep playing on here... He's got enormous hidden talent, but needs to become a musician with feeling & groove for a track (it's hard to explain 😂)... At the moment, he reminds me of "ANIMAL" on The Muppets Show, which probably explains why he isn't a big name multi millionaire with a global big band 😂. That sounds harsh, but I really rate his talent, and no mega insult meant or intended. Get him to listen to Ginger Baker lots 😉. Best Wishes x

Hi Andrew. Please react to Calling Elvis (Live On The Night 1993) Dire Straits!!!!! Please

That was technically incredible, but such a mechanical approach to playing leaves me cold.
