People have no idea how absolutely hard this is... the timing.. god damn. I love Mario.

[TheChickenwon]

This isn’t even Mario at his fullest, as you can see he still has a shirt on

[amjan]

I'm looking out left and right for the train that's coming.

Mario is just a rhythmic machine. Love his drumming style

[Fausus]

A man who is in tune with his body. I'm pretty sure he doesn't even think of rhythm when he plays this. Like each part of his body is a member of a percussion section. He is the maestro. His body is his instrument. His instruments are extensions of himself as a consequence. Mario is a beast.

Mario has the most insane timing. One of the best drummers hands down

[chasegrebb]

One of THE most intense & impressive drummers i’ve ever seen live. When they opened for Deftones, i could feel his bass drum hits in the bottom of my soul. Also, i’ll forever remember at the end of their set, they all stood at the front of the stage to say thank you. “Sank you, PortLAND” he said, in the kindest & most French accent. I love him & this band so goddamn much.

[why]

I like how youll see gojira wearing deftones shirts and then youll see deftones wearing gojira shirts lol

[mrspankyuk]

Any drummers out there know how hard this is! Would take me a lifetime to get this one! All hail anyone that can do this, this well! 👏🏻 🙌🏻

[sliqqy..]

The fact that he can just jump into it too man. I’m sitting here practicing this and feel so proud when I can finally work my right hand in on time, man’s is a legend.

[bugatti_cuda]

This is one of the hardest things that I’ve tried to do

[joehemphill]

I'm a new fan to GOJIRA and I haven't felt like I do towards music since I found Iron Maiden when I was 15 yrs old!

Mario, your internal emotional conveyances that match the others in the band is as sound as the revelations of the current times!

I tip my hat in your direction!

[Guilianotwitch]

Playing at the Olympics is crazy. Love Mario D.

[DrumMater]

This is one of most insane drum intros for a song I've ever heard. Mario is GOD!!! 🤟

[cuteclumsygirl]

It’s so beautiful. It sounds like a bell, or like a train. He’s a genius — all glory to God for that talent. ❤

[maplechill]

Hands down my favorite drummer. Absolute master of his craft.

[TimMillernapavalleyfilmworks]

The fact he's wearing a deftones t makes this cool alone 🚶

[innergenichiro]

People who dont play drums have no idea how fucking impressive this is rythmically. Now i dont see if he uses a single pedal or a double pedal but if its single then this is even harder.

[jhonatanrincon]

This is 'cause Mario is one of the Best drummers in the world

[AldoMetalDrums]

If anybody is struggling to figure out the pattern because of the 3/4 time signature, you may as well attempt a regular 4/4 Skank beat (Snare hits the "&" of each pulse) with 16ths on the bass drum, and play the ride in a doted 8th note pattern. Mario's pattern is basically the same, he's just removing a kick hit where the Snare is placed.
