Luke Combs' drummer plays along to Gojira without ever having heard them before

The Drumeo YouTube channel features a segment where drummers are challenged to recreate drum parts for songs outside their usual style.
In the latest video, Jake Sommers, Luke Combs' touring drummer with a background in country music, was given the task of figuring out the drum parts for Gojira's "Stranded." Despite his country background, Sommers demonstrated knowledge of heavy music. Host Brandon Toews also tested him with songs like Korn's "Freak On A Leash" and Porcupine Tree's "The Sound Of Muzak," but they couldn't be used since Sommers was already familiar with them.
In this clip you get to see a bit of Sommers process breaking down how he thinks the track should go, which is interesting. You can watch the entire clip below.
