now don't take him too seriously, no need to start a flame war.



while i think the first two are subjective, i completely agree with the third. i have a hard time listening to a lot of straight up modern death metal drummers for reason number 3, i just think they're all speed and the same sounding fill. anyways discuss

I completely agree with point 2 and 3. The first beat can work well at times.

Ok, so I'm trying to follow your advice and not take the dude seriously. I just feel like he's coming across as that young opinionated asshole musician that we know that has the "right way to do things", and has that "It's the only way and if you disagree, you are shit" attitude that I can't tolerate anymore. Plus, his playing grooves as poorly as his english flows. :lol::lol::lol::lol: Seriously, it was quite clunky. I will admit, his finger technique is good, but there is so much more to good drumming than that.

On the lighter, less-serious note, I'm thinking/hoping that this was a joke video. His Metallica and Nickelback jabs made me LOL and the fact that he would stare into the camera without speaking was creepily amusing. His 3 issues he had with Death Metal Drumming were valid to a certain extent, but I've heard plenty of good songs that have used these 3 conventions.


So to wrap it up, although he was annoying to me, he made me laugh a bunch, so thanks for sharing this video with ss.org.

He obviously hasn't listened to a lot of death metal.

1:20 of Nile's 'Annihilation Of The Wicked' has some rediculously fast and consistent blasting.

I understand the video isn't that serious but the funny thing is, most bands actually do what he does when he says "It should be played like this:".

He is a bit of a hardcore snob though.

You guys shouldn't bash his English skills, it's hard to speak fluent English without stumbling on words when you never really use it other than like, watch television or write... :( I got this problem that I can write really well, but my tongue has a will of it's own when I try to speak English.. Unless I speak with a Russian accent, then there's no problems what so ever for some reason...

The vid on the other hand was hilarious :lol: At first I thought he was Swedish but then I saw he was Finnish, well, we do have a similar accent :lol:
