This freaking guy is simply unreal. I mean seriously. What a maniac on that drum kit. Incredible.
Are you back??!! My Christmas wish came true! Love the song choice for the return!!! Hope everything is all well Delta Empire.
delta's back! probably the best christmas gift
I love playing along with this song. It’s sounds super complicated, but only took a few tries to get it down once you realize you play the remote hats for the verse.
I have never seen a better drum cover of this song anywhere on the internet. And in fact I genuinely think that this is the BEST cover of ANY song I have ever witnessed! You are one incredible talent! 🙌🏼🙌🏼😱😱🤘🏽🤘🏽
To this day (March 2024) this still holds true

How can anyone dislike any video of this guy... I can't imagine any reason not to like him.
The visual production of your videos is also brilliant. These purple lights, lots of cameras, everything there adds really well - but all of that would be meaningless without your awesome drumming. Congrats for the amazing care and professionalism in the making of these videos!
"What did you get for Christmas this year?"
"Delta posted a new vid after a small hiatus."
Kids and family opening gifts... Delta notification pops up.... Everyone waits 7 minutes for the rest of their gifts. Welcome back Delta, thanks for the surprise gift 🎁
He had just as much joy and satisfaction pounding this one out as we all did watching it. You can't conceal that energy behind any mask........Truly magical.......... Bravo Delta.....
Delta is back!! Another Bad Ass song to start!! Cant wait for whats next!!
What a nice way to express your energy
the love here for Delta is putting a huge smile on my face. :)
That was the greatest cover Ive ever seen. An excellent song choice too.
this guy is my fav on utube he flows like a natural.and he has power for days.badass
This was an awesome surprise in my inbox when I returned to work this morning. Thanks for the excellence!
The best drum cover on YT. Fkn amazing!!!!!!!!!!!
That HAS to be Dave under the mask. That was spot-on perfect. Well done.
Perfect. Dave McClain killed it on this song. Love this song, love this cover. Great, great, great job.
...and the master magician does it again. Amazing!!!
Dude I hope you had a blast in the past weeks. I'm glad to hear from you again, this made my day after a stressful day at my job!
Thank you for the effort you put into your Videos and Covers/Solos, you really love making music, that's for sure!
Yessss, he's not just back.. He's back with a vengeance 🤘📣🤘📣🤘
Welcome Back Delta!! Best Christmas ever!!! Thank you for that awesome cover.
Surgically precise, and Fucking Badass, as usual. I’m not into this musical style at all, and I love watching you. You play with an incredible confidence. Thanks for this, and happy holidays!
Dutch van der Linde actually, I love disturbed. Maybe I am into it. 😂
Dutch van der Linde Disturbed isn't real Metal.
@@billyherring9987 yes they are
LOL, Disturbed is as "metal" as Five Finger Death Punch and Nickelback. Hard rock, absolutely. Metal? Nope. Maybe Wal-Mart Metal...
I haven’t even watched it yet, but I clicked like because I know you’re gonna kill this like all the others.
I have never missed someone I've never met before. YOU ARE THE BEST
HES BACK!!!!!! Merry Christmas to all of us
Merry Christmas and welcome back!! You are a genius!! My favorite Machine Head song...truly a Christmas Miracle!!!
Holy f'n hell. That tone on the toms
Good fucking christ, delta is back, thats some hell of a christmas gift. Welcome back, we missed you.
This cover kicks serious ass! Dave McClain would be proud! Well done, sir!
🤘🤘
Are you kidding me?!? Precision at its finest! Well done. I have no more.....
How is it possible that this dude only has 110tn subs,but a girl sitting and unwraping random things and talking about it has 3mn subs???? Shows that people are stupid and naive. You deserve more creed and recognition delta. You areva master and way beyond godlevel. :) good job sir.
5:21
The amount of concentration and practice on the kick drum to this part is astronomical i would think 😂
Fantastic 👍
Throwback to Headbangers Ball!! Loved that song, awesome work man
I can watch you playing your drum kit whole day.
So fucking brutal...love it!
AMAZING as always!!
I keep coming back to this and get goosebumps every damn time. Clinically amazing.
You should have 1 million subscribers. Such great performance and production!
Excellent, I was going to try learn this and now I have a drum tutorial :)
One of my favorite songs, and you crushed it.
You’re like a beast! So precise! Grad you’re back!
Hell yeah your back. I started watching your channel the day you left us with a bad ass slayer vid. I’m glad your back!
I got a new guitar for the studio, AND Delta is back... best Christmas in a LONG time! Welcome back Delta!
anytime you need time off to chill its good with me . I'll be here .
Arguably the most brutal opening song to arguably machine heads most brutal album...never get tired of this song...oh ya check out the X-mas light show tuned to "Imperium"
5:22
Totally forgot how brutal that bit is 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

WTF DAVE QUIT?
@@dbruinsm132 Damn at least i saw them live once. But shit this sucks they've been one of my favorites for years, but hey they made way longer than most successful bands do.
Delta is way too good to deal with the SJW shit-show that Robb has turned MH into.
