Yoshiki Hayashi drum solo

[MamMoThcLasSicCaL]

ไหน dek-d บอกว่าอันดับ 1 .....เห้อออ

[MadokaCatty]

WE LOVE YOU....FROM THAILAND....COME HERE AGAIN....

[whisper2moi]

I LOVE Yoshiki! He's not JUST a drummer...he's an Artist! For all you "pansy ass" haters, seen his piano work? People who criticize with name calling and hatefulness are envious coz YOU CAN"T DO THAT!

[tomaskovic2]

Fuck all of this George Kollias is the drum father for all this baby drummers.

[ManInBox94]

i get bored of people who just roll double kicks for 10minutes being called the best........ this is not the greatest drummer ever, or currently. (sad face)

[KiwiChelseaFC]

แป้ว -*-

[Finnboy98]

HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!! DIZ IZ FUCKING AWESOME!!!!

[flook4857]

Joey เว้ย!!!

[Thedevillaysdying]

This guy is insane

But James Owen "The Rev" Sullivan (Jimmy) is still the best

[Spermbazooka]

@Thedevillaysdying he is or was not the best. there is no such thing like a best drummer, maybe a favourite drummer, like mike portnoy for me. but if you look for the best skills, i think mike mangini takes them all at the moment.

[Thedevillaysdying]

@Spermbazooka I guess thats true :D

^^Also a funny name JS

[KatashiaFantasy101]

At first, I was thinking, "Hm... How good can he be? I mean, 'best drummer in the world' sounds like an overstatement..." I watch this. IT'S NOT AN OVERSTATEMENT. HOLY CRAP. THIS GUY IS AMAZING <3 *just became a fan of X-Japan*

[sodasodahero]

@KatashiaFantasy101 How can you think this guy is amazing? The pussy is overreacting like hell and the only thing he does is double kick some shit together. I can drum this shit out of my arse.

[KatashiaFantasy101]

@sodasodahero FUCK. YOU.

You don't have shit on Yoshiki.

I know that based on what you said.

Fucking jealous prick.

[tirtashintaro]

@Thrashzzz : i'm an ASIA dude,.. but the fact is his just doing what we called here in Indonesia 'LEBAY' means exaggerate something simple... dude you really need to watch some Mike Portnoy if you're looking for pure feeling...

"pure feeling", hahha, dude you're a gay... :p

[ManUTuwza]

[hassassin1]

5, I meant 5. Sorry.

[hassassin1]

Dude, japanese drummers are insane. Top 4 should be 1. Travis barker 2. Yobishi takayoshi 3. drummer from aqua timez 4. The rev and 5. Neil pert.

[flatsoul666]

@hassassin1 top1 is travis barker???? well thats bullshit man

they all got different genres ok ? so dont make top top shit like that ...

u dont even know joey jordison and theres so many drummers out there that isnt popular

[retroge]

he is asian. anything you can do, asian do it better.

[1990raleigh]

this guy is insane...he is just awsome plan and simple

[fajar4027]

yoshiki was the best in asia, but the rev was ruling the world RIP the rev

[fajar4027]

best drummer that asia had

[IVANGEBER]

he also played piano when he was a kid, when he's father died he's turning to play drum

[Morphine7]

Pffff haters gonna hate. Just jealous blablablas here :) I want to see you doing this, but all you can do is leaving your spam shit.

[xboxinb]

I come here hearing that this guy is the greatest drummer ever... and all i see is some faggoty ass asian in tight leather pants spam the double kick and the ride... what the fuck

[foodmore]

@xboxinb post of video of yourself doing better then.

[Kreason95]

Travis Barker=way better

[bjuszczak6]

@Kreason95 100% agree :D

[killerbee458]

@Kreason95 Travis Barker= overrated

[retroge]

@killerbee458 travis barker < all

[MyAquilani]

The dance of eternity.excellent.

[uaintbonified36]

Sorry...but that was absolutely boring as fuck.

[cowman602]

hes... a god... HAIL!!!!

[makantang]

CRAP !!... girls are fucking screaming cause either........they dont know shit about drums and think that this is godly drum playing or they are attracted by his sweaty body.. CHOOSE!!

[jazzymount]

sucks

[maroomatoo]

ไอ้สัสกูร๊อค\m/l

[Lonestarry]

Wow - that was great. He is in the same league as Frost. Both are fabulous and totally sic.

[bullsfist]

1:40 he actually starts

[MrAlexa7x]

so easy...

[MrAlexa7x]

its easy.

[MrAlexa7x]

its easy.

[first011a]

stop changing the camera pls

[hooge007]

Well its got drive, but very repetitive, hey kiddies speed does not necessarily mean good. To much bullshit interludes and hype. Compared any Neil Peart, this guy sucks. Neil is twice his age and can go longer, harder and far more interesting than this ass.

[LycheePrincesss]

Awesome?The best!

[UndertakerNeverDies]

For those who complained that it took so long for him to play the drums in this video you do realize this was a live show? This is all apart of the show to entertain the fans actually there not for when someone puts it on youtube.

[royalman0875]

โตอี้ จอดิสัน โหดสุดฟัก fuck restrospect กูร๊อค \m/

[Fursasher]

Not the best. Nope.

[H0Tf1re]

@Fursasher well, maybe not the best, but at the top 3!

[powerrangers1990]

these guys fuckin' awesome!!

[KninghtOr]

เจ๋วหวะ

[watersedy]

ok so for anyone that wanted to know the actual drumming starts at 1:40

[evilchimpmunk566]

can he just fucking play already?

[CrazyJesseful]

I think a better drummer than this dude, (or a few) can be found in any major city in the world. I could do a more interesting solo, and I call myself a "keg pounder". I'm faster than this. Maybe I should just buy another kit, audition,pratice, practice,practice.............­.just saying, no way he's second best in the world.

[tirtashintaro]

@Thrashzzz : using a simple beat, simple double bass, you think that's make him one of the best drummer...hahaha...

fuck the shut up...

try to watch Mike Portnoy, Jimmy 'The Rev' Sullivan, or Neil Part,..and you'll know who's the best is....

[crcjunior]

what a piece of garbage!!!

This Emo Shit think he's good???? The problem is that the youngers don't know what is music and rock anymore.... I'm sad...

[tirtashintaro]

@crcjunior : that's true...

young people don't know what is music and rock...

that's really true...

[TheLoneFerret]

just overrated.. nuff said

[samsoft9390]

JUST WASTING MY TIME HERE... PURELY SIJNGLE STROKE AND DOUBLE BASS.... VERY SIMPLE.... try watching steve gadd, vinie colaiuta, dave weckl, neil peart, and you'll hear what sounds simple yet very complicated.... mike portnoy also is great

[Therealslaw]

What's wrong with him is he depressed or something? I'm not bashing the guy but he shouldn't be exhausted from only that

[ong1001]

ไรของมึง

[DontLikeBandsIHate]

holy crap. that was overrated and bad.

[TacticalSniperMonkey]

Eh, I don't know... not the best, really good, but not the best... it seems most of it is just double bass...

[MrFantomas45]

@NizarMoSB and Yoshiki Hayashi is one of the greatest drummers in the world. go to google and put tuop ten best drummers of all time . and YOshiki is in 1st place

[Tish418]

@MrFantomas45 That top 10 list also contains Lars Ulrich, get out.

[MrFantomas45]

@Tish418 look . alot of white people go to the internet . we can say that they have taken over the internet . so those white people who are fucking racis just put pure white drummers for the best drummers in the world but its not true. the best drummer in the world is YOSHIKI HAYASHI . only white people say joey jordison is the best . im not saying that he sucks. joey is good. but hes not better then Yoshiki .

[Tish418]

@MrFantomas45 God only knows how you turned my comment into a race thing. By somehow finding racism in my comment or the previous comments about other drummers you're the kind of person who is keeping racism alive. I don't like Yoshiki Hayashi, it has nothing to with him being Japanese. Akira Jimbo is Japanese and I think he's amazing. Aaron Spears is black and he's my favourite drummer, just behind Jojo Mayer who happens to be white. It has absolutely nothing to do with race.

[MrFantomas45]

@Tish418 now your going to talk about religion thats just not cool bro

[Dizzyd715]

@MrFantomas45 Hahah fuck no Joey Jordison isn't the best drummer, Neil Peart of Rush is!

[TacticalSniperMonkey]

@MrFantomas45 I sort of agree with the Neil Peart people as well as Tish418... Sorry buddy, but that person wasn't being racist...

[andyroo2540]

I cant watch this. Good drumming but spastic camera work. I have to vote down on this video just because i began to feel sick watching it.

[MrFantomas45]

@NizarMoSB look . i know your just embarresed to say the truth so lets keep it cool bro.

[tetsu85]

What i admire from Yoshiki is his power and speed... but just by having speed&power doesn't makes him the best drummer in the world...

[StonedAssassinNZL]

noob

[giggabyt78]

get on with it

[srryforowningu]

look at them leather pants lol

[ctown2ba]

gotta admit, not the WORLDS GREATEST drummer, there's talent there so everybody stop dissin on him. but the classical music was sweet non the less.

[MrFantomas45]

his 999999999999x better then joey jordison

[elliotcina]

nice.... although it took it about an hour for him to start, and also when he did get into it, it was all very "look at me! i'm yoshiki look how fast i can play these notes.. and look, look, see how fast i can kick the base drum!' No heart and soul was put into this, and how could you possibly put this into a song! I like the transperant kit, though.

[OMGBIKERs1]

@elliotcina not hating here anything

but could you do better?

[CallFil]

This was a really boring non-skilled drum solo. 16th notes all the time

[TheGhandhy]

BEST OF SOLO DRUM ....

I like This VIDEO

[TheGhandhy]

BEST OF SOLO DRUM ....

I like This Video

[AtumnLeaf7463]

@mikevandmikel We all have our own opinions. I for one know by experience how hard it is to play double bass for longer than 2 minutes. Plus look at the sweat all over him at the end i mean DAMN. I think he kicks ass =) Yeah everyone has their own styles of drum solos which makes them unique. I think the beginning sounded EPIC in my opinion. It's all good.

[AtumnLeaf7463]

Omg you guys dont know a shit. It's harder to play the drums than it looks. And he's doin double bass throughout 95% of the time. It's already tiring just doing that for 2 minutes! You guys dont know what talent is obviously and shutup with your immature comments cuz your just making yourselves look like even bigger idiots. I don't even know why your trying, your making him more famous giving the video views. So get over yourselves.

[Helloption97]

if the camera changes to the beat of the sound,i will puke!!!

[SimplyPhalin]

He ain't no Neil Peart.

[blingadingading]

@SimplyPhalin Who is? You can't compare drummers to Neil Peart, he is the best drummer ever, anyway it's a different sort of drummer.

[SimplyPhalin]

He ain't no Neil Peart.

[DiGiPiXiL]

This made my head hurt. Seriously.

[raginraven31]

Someone thought it was a good idea to change cameras to his beat!

[drumdadio]

I love how there is subtle orchestra music playing over the top of his rambunctious playing lmao.

[patricus1749]

No grace, no subtlety, just a guy smashing on his drum heads as fast and hard as he can, in the process wears himself out in the first 1 minute of his drum solo.

[eroticnightmares12]

I have seen a few criticism, I am also a fan of drummers like Buddie Rich, Mike Portnoy etc. This drummer is up there with them, one of the best drummers I have heard.

[Artemis0Entreri]

Sorry to all you fellow American's who say that only Japanese like his drumming, but I am an American who happens to love his drumming. His is very influential in the Japanese music scene and is a Legend to them. I am sure you would get pissed if someone from Japan were to downgrade Bonham or Peart...so why are you going to go and knock their best drummer? Hypocrites...

[caccool124]

crazyed youre right about terry bosio besides he has the same surname than me (but dont think bad im not a familiar from him my father is a famous bass player)

[caccool124]

i saw better drummers than these if youre going to judge drumers for their solos and speed youre very wrong

[crazyedd123]

@caccool124 thank you. someone who understands drumming.

terry bozzio is the perfecrt example of 'speed isn't always the answer'

[HospitalBomber]

I bet its rough playing with that neck brace. +10 for difficulty?

[strat4860]

wow, that was a lot of nothing.....

[mrshooterhank]

this guy is great . you guys argue about the japanese and him being a legend all u want , he is great and i am an old school fan of neils and bonham . race ,age ,style doesnt matter . when you make people sit an listen , thats all that matters .

[mileshoffman]

Nail Peart is better. End of story. Wait no the story goes on, Neil Peart is the best drummer in the world. Now its the end of the story.

[physicns]

@mileshoffman Except by Neil Peart you meant John Bonham.

[fortells]

@physicns wtf, have you heard Tom Sawyer and YYZ?

[ajboojay]

loud fast but this doesnt take that much skill.

[suspensiondude]

OVER RATED!

[3Massakaman]

I just can say: Overrated! This Drummer is good, really good but i think there are much better Players. And who ever filmed and cutted it should be fired! My Eyes are hurting from the Camer Changes-.-

[iecephau]

Overrated. Not that great, not even that fast. Even a high school skilled drummer can do that. I'm disappointed, waiting for a skillful beat not just producing noise and banging head.

[afisair]

This is shit. I had to wait two minutes for him to start playing this shit? Great.

[MrDazzaG]

why cant they use the same camera for more than 3 seconds?

[fullmetalgeass]

@MrDazzaG the cameramen have OCD

[Flip194]

@MrDazzaG too much professionalism ahah

[doehl1]

Big hat, no cattle. Lots of volume and the light show was great. No depth or complexity to the rhythms.

[jiladoper2]

He as bean Rated the Best drummer of all Time Guys , NOW i know why -_- xD

[pdfurgi]

Este tipo no le llega ni al pie del Hi Hat de Neil Peart, como baterista conozco tipos 100 veces mejores que este "ponja", Vinnie Colaiuta te hace lo mismo dormido.

[themainmanishere]

Well, he is hell better than me.....

[thatTeeRavis]

After hearing this guy was the best drummer of all time (better than Neil Peart and even Buddy Rich), I have to say I'm extremely disappointed. If this is characteristic of his work, I'm unimpressed. Yes, he's good (much, much better than me, before any of you get on my case about it XD), but I will contest this guy's skill against that of "the greats." Maybe he's just being humble, but like FuckYouLetMeLogin pointed out, he doesn't display any deeper techniques here. Fun to watch though.

[kevinz88pb]

Its very2 cool

[TrippyDrummer]

I actually enjoyed the Orchestra in the background more than his retarted drum solo

[Vntripper]

what a bunch of pretentious bull shit, what a nug playing without a shirt and in leather pants hahaha, he's probably sitting on a dildo

[sebaswildboy]

@Vntripper go compose as this guy.. play the piano as this guy... play drums as this guy...

Allaround musician, a true hero for music

Bobby Jarzombek is the best in drums

[xXkrazykitsuneXx]

@Vntripper Please do us all a favor and go die in a fire. I can understand if you don't think he's great or if you want to critique his style, but this guy is a rock legend, and you're just some dick on the internet, so kindly shove it up your ass. >:| 

[fortells]

@xXkrazykitsuneXx What kinda retard are you? Rock legend? What the fuck? No one has ever heard of him! Compare the views for all of this guys videos to Neil Peart's. He's a rock legend man. This faggot is shit.

[xXkrazykitsuneXx]

@fortells Yes, because if ~YOU~ haven't heard of him, he couldn't ~POSSIBLY~ be a legend. Or have sold out the Tokyo Dome a dozen times. Or have been a founding member of a band that changed the face of Japanese rock.

Seriously, your defense of "no one has heard of him" is youtube page views?

I'm not saying they're not other amazing drummers! There CAN be more than one amazing drummer in the world. What I'M saying is that you fanboys kindly need to pull your heads from your asses. >:|

[fortells]

@xXkrazykitsuneXx Yeah, but the only one who thinks he's good is japanese people, who are also known for listening to shit.

[xXkrazykitsuneXx]

@fortells I don't even know where to begin with the stupidity of that statement. How much more bigotry can you put into one sentence? "Japanese people listen to shit"? ...You are a moron.

For the record, I'm not remotely Japanese. Or a drummer. What I AM, though, is a student of music. And I bloody love Japanese rock. You know why? Because they have reverence for the skill required to play an instrument. And this man is one of their legends. Scoff all you want, but that's talent in that video.

[fortells]

@xXkrazykitsuneXx It's true man. No one but Japanese people and a handfull of other people listen to it. Anyway, I am a student of music as well, and I kinda agree that my previous statement was kinda stupid, but it's my opinion. I just don't get why this guy is known for being one of the best. I don't find this impressive at all compared to Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, The Rev, John Bonham etc. I just don't get it...

[xXkrazykitsuneXx]

@fortells And I'm not saying he is the best. I have very little skill or knowledge when it comes to drumming (I'm the first to admit that). I'm not saying he's the best drummer who ever lived, but I am saying that he is a legend and his drum skills are only part of that legend. He's also currently one of the more influential producers in the Japanese music scene, as well as a classically trained pianist. Maybe people are overstating his abilities, but you have to admit he's not some hack.

[kylekthedrummer]

i heard of this guy cause somthin rated him #1 drummer of all time... he sucks dick he should just like.. give up the shit he acts like its hard is soooo easy

[FuckYouLetMeLogIn]

Get a grip, people. This guy is no great drummer. He's not even very fast. He's just pounding the crap out of the drum heads. You call that greatness? Fuck, I could train a monkey to do what this guy does....and the monkey would have better stamina!

Where's the amazing stick skills? Where's the left/right hand independence? Where the one-handed rolls? Where's the ability to play two different time signatures at once? Nowhere to be seen.

[Ajt8000]

@FuckYouLetMeLogIn post a video of yourself doing better

[imhated22]

@Ajt8000 he doest have to look up matt greiner a lot better than this shit

[RanDomBWood]

joey jordison FTW

[Edavechubbz]

lameeeeeeeeeeeeeeee,willy wonka songs get my nips harder than this

[bodomchild5240]

why is everyone preaching about the rev...yeah the rev was pretty good, he was great as some may even go as far as saying...but seriously, he isnt anything compared to Keith Moon, Blake Richardson, or the greatest of all time, Mike Portnoy (Mike is actually drumming in place of the Rev for this upcoming album and tour so A7x Rev fans who say he isnt good can suck it.), this guy is ok, it is a lot of bass and banging, he doesnt have any rhythm to it tho

[LucindaChilds]

no offence to the kid like but its just a load of fancy camera angles,, hes good ill give him that but when i heard that some one rated him over 'the rev' i thought he was good now i know that he is a drummer who uses lud instead of skill ....

[akuadalahdrumer]

muanteb mas...!

[PunisherNBK718]

Get the fuck outta here, at 6 months of playing you can double bass like that and drum and move at his speed on a 12 piece set? I dont fucking think so liar..

I never heard of this guy before, I just stumbled on this solo and this shit is hot, that is how you play with feeling, like they do at plays, but on the drums..

[CrasyWarfareX]

the rev hauls this guys ass

[ilovepwd]

neil peart is better and then portnoy rips him :)

[woodros]

wtf is this theatrical shite

[wardnor77]

I've been playing since I was 6...jazz trained, played rock, blues, etc. AND THIS GUY FREAKING SUCKS!!!!!!! Wow. Now I know why I've never heard of him.

[supersalvi616]

vuala tiooooooooooo

[magma5555]

OMG - - - - - IT SUCKS !!!!! 

[MrOmeMan]

I'm a hip hop guy and I'd still say that that was ok... not really my style but he was good at maintaining his rhythm.... for the most part...

[MrBastrop]

tony royster???

[pudinithegreat]

very boring. check out vadrum if u wanna see some badass drumming

[inukikyo89]

How can anyone on here say Yoshiki is a horrible drummer by listening to one solo? His performances in Art of Life are much, much, much better than the ones here.

Not to mention, he's the "Piano God."

[TORITOT83]

OH THE DRAMA THIS SUCKED BALLS ( LOL )

[sisenioritoquerido]

It's the worst solo I ever heard. I can't believe there are thumbs up here. I played like that when I was 6 months of playing drums, and I am no genious. But this is crap. How can people there even shout? Men, for a real drummer, the best of all times FAR FROM THE SECOND ONE, hear Vinnie Colaiuta.

[yoda109]

Sloppy ass asian

[Gibsonjunkie64]

so what's the orchestral part called? (before he starts playing)

[tiger8558]

this dude is not even that good....

[confuzzerated]

@tiger8558 You suck. Major Dick. Go fuck yourself in a corner you tart D:

[tiger8558]

@confuzzerated apparently im not the only one that thinks he is overrated. piss off.

[paal2106]

Thats the worst piece of crap I have ever seen! Everybody, drummer or not, could do that with a few weeks practice.

[TORITOT83]

@paal2106 I AGREE
