Truthfully, it's not that impressive. The progression is fairly straight forward as is the drumbeat. The drummer plays soft too, as do the guitstists, so they're not expending a lot of energy. The PA is making up the gain lost by soft playing, though with a kit, you'll never get a deep sound without hitting the skins hard af (and I say this as a person who has played daily for over 40 years, and owns a very large sonor designer series kit). This includes the kicks. He's losing a lot of natural body the kit can produce and leaving it to the sound guys to make it up in the eq.
The speed of the playing is just an illusion. Let me play my snare at the same rate as a straight eighth note pattern commonly played on a hi hat... omfg .. that beat is so fast.
Chris Coleman is a great example of a hard hitter. He may be a nigger, but he plays hard, and you can hear it.

And then there are guys like Marin Axenrot. Opeth makes Dragonforce look like Faggotforce.
