James Payne of Hour of Penance 

So cool. James is also an awesome instructor and has tons of videos out explaining every detail of this style of drumming. So much to learn from this dude, his lesson delivery is impeccable, not wasting a single word. Practice makes perfect, thank you Zildjian and James!

James Payne from Hour Of Penance playing through "Incestuous Dynasty Of Worms" from the 'Paradogma' album and showing off his Kollias-esque one footed blast technique... along with a whole other ton of good stuff! \m/

Every 14 year old with zbt's that plays blink 182 drum covers hates this guy.

I get that death metal isn't for everyone, but why are there so many people on this particular video complaining about it?

Still my top one drummers in my existence, James keep it up bro

So much to like about this video, but my favorite part is that he uses chain driven iron cobras. Shows you don't need $1000 top of line pedals to play fast!

Great compilation of technique and endurance! keep going!

for those dummies,here I want to let you know every drummer has their own technique & skill..there's no "no 1" or "the best" drummer in the world....there's many things they able to do in drumming and there's some thing they can't..I mean no perfect drummer in the world & nobody perfect..it's everybody rights to comment anything they want & I personally stating this guy is sick..great drummer..I'm a 30 years old experienced drummer in a metal band & I plays varies of genres either so I know what I'm saying...to be honest,this guy awesome...he has something that ordinary and typical drummer doesn't,metal is unique..most of metal musician basically own an extreme level "musicianship" and skill/technique and just like what I've said before there's no "the best" in music

This dude is absolutely insane!

Why are there so many comments saying the exact same thing?

I dream of being able to do blast beats this well one day. Bravo sir. Btw i fuckin love Hour of Penance \m/

Drum kit~ "Oh shit! Here comes James!!!!!"

"its not technical" DUDE THIIIS IS PURE TECHNIC

This clip still amazes me, bad fuckin ass,brutal job James...🍻 cheers in 2019

Meinl definitely has a strong hold on cymbals for metal.

If you don't like it don't watch it. Cry Babies

You are crazy amazing!!!!!!!!!

Excelent performance!!! 😱😎😎👏💪💪💪👌

This guy's a freaking beast! Big ups! Wish I could blast like that just for fun. I'd love to be in another RnB Soul cover band and start a lot of our ballads in this manner at rehearsal just to freak them the fuk out.

Getting some Kollias influence, great footwork. Love it

Wow!

THE BEST

James Payne is sick!

INSANE DRUMMER! :D

HELL YEEAHHHHH!!!!!

Fast, but grossly redundant. When do we get the HD Flo Mounier videos we so desperately need?

Tilt my hat to you good sir!!

He is a beast\m/..

Fuckin'Killer!

Insane

Jazz Death Metal! Supremely brilliant.

The man and his drums would make good replacement for the sound of Maschinengewehr 42...:))

big up!!!

HOLY FUCK

What the HELL!?

Insane \m/

What chinas are them?

My philosophy and goal is skill of a metal drummer like speed amd stuff, with the technically of a good jazz drummer

es un dios...tiene talento,pero segun algunos comentarios que veo por aca le tienen celos a este tipo...no puede ser que haya gente que comente que esto no es interesante,porque si no lo es no lo miren,no es obligacion mirarlo,aunque tienen todo el derecho de opinar por supuesto...ahora el que no le guste mi comentario nada mas le ponen un dislike y ya,no tiene que haber una discusion de mierda por lo que dije

holy fucking foot wiggles

this song is written by James Payne? incredible performance!

Incestuous Dynasty of Worms \m/

Since when the hell is there a "right" way to drum?? Who the hell can say what is right and what is the incorrect way to drum. A TRUE drummer loves the instrument because of the freedom it provides. That's why I hate a lot of jazz drummers, they're so pretentious and condescending. If there's no "groove" its not good.

Perfeito cara (Y)

which song is he playing ?

hell yea not too bad

James na garanzia

great skills but would want to hear more of the same

OMG😨😱

Anyone else think *gooooooongggg* at 2:35?

Funny foot work xD

Wait, is this all without triggers? What the fuckkkk?!

La madre que lo parió!

A machine gun

+Matt yupitsme look up infant annhialator and their drummer. Makes Alex look slow

Can't believe you got 32 dislikes.

U can only do this

Oh my god, is there all jazz gurus in comments or what? Somebody upload your music, will see what you got there, critics, lol

This is redonculously fast. Look up "Thomas Pridgen vs two kids" and that is what i look like as i watch this.

02:55 Whaaat? :p

horsee!!!

Eduardo Navas Daniel Garcia

apa tak lumpuh tu kaki?? 😂

better than kollias

16th and 32nd notes. There I've saved you 3 minutes of your life.

He's good but he is playing the same riff for 3 minutes. Pretty boring.

tai kucing

From a athletic perspective this is great and as a drummer I really dig his awesome speed but it has nothing musical about it.

Fast drummer but not that interesting to watch or listen to..

Obviously it takes hard work and practice to get to this level of efficiency and speed, but it's just tasteless and has no feeling, pretty boring to be honest

As a drummer i was impressed, but as a music fan I hated it... a lot!!

This got boring after 20 seconds.

Reactions: For the first minute: wow, that`s damn fast!!! Later on: come down boy - it's annoying...

being fast it cool and all. But it gets annoying after a while. I think being able to groove it way better than having that much chops.

His skill is definitely impressive, but the same fill followed by blast beats gets boring after 30 seconds in my opinion

This is funny hahaha it's pretty impressive what he's doing but there's no groove or at least variation. Anyone can go at a million miles an hour but the best drummers mix many styles into their playing and into their genre.

Fast but very boring

Impressive but like all the other bands like this, boring

!!!!!!!

He's kinda fast. Just kinda.......lol.

being fast it cool and all. But it gets annoying after a while. I think being able to groove it way better than having that much chops.
