With a new album and accompanying headline tour on the way, twenty one pilots’ Josh Dun isn’t using his current downtime to rest and take it easy… he’s been busy behind his kit.

The drummer has just shared a full cover of Metallica’s Master Of Puppets on his YouTube channel, and it sounds as though there’ll be even more videos to come.

“I enjoy sitting in my room and playing my drums,” Josh writes. “I often play whatever comes on Spotify – try and learn it and perform it all the way through.

“I decided to film some of these songs and put them on here. Hope you enjoy – nothing too crazy just some play-throughs of songs I like. This one was all one take so not perfection, but fun.” We still think Lars would be very proud, tbh.

See Josh in action below:

twenty one pilots will release their new album Breach on September 12.
