3 things this guy hates about death metal drumming

[Demonsev7en]

The end is brilliant, that made my day!

I totally agree, all the death metal bands round here blast for half a bar then fill, cos they just can't keep it up!

Great video, his kit actually sounds really good considering it's going straight into the cam mic.

As for his English, I'd say it's pretty impressive considering he's not a native speaker. Yeah, it may not flow well, but I detect no traces of an accent whatsoever and it seems like if he just works on articulating the words that come to his mind (I have the same problem with German) he'd be more than understandable.

EDIT: On the subject matter, I'll have to go out on a limb and agree with him fully with regards to people who knowingly do things one way to avoid having to practice and do it another. I'm not just talking about drummers who avoid their weak hand, but also guitarists who intentionally use tone to cover up their sloppy playing and other such things. Practice, you lazy assholes!

I don't think its english not being his first language I think he has a speech impediment. Well thats what it sounds like to me anyway.

 

[leandroab]

TIMMEH!

 

[Varcolac]

Neil Peart shit, like doot doot doodley doot. Doot doot de doot. Aaaah!

Excellent.

I asked him where's from in a comment, he's Finnish. I think his English is pretty damn good for someone who probably isn't a native speaker.

Great video btw

I hate the first drum beat with a fiery passion

 

[cwhitey2]

funny as hell and hes shreds that drum set

 

[KoenDercksen]

Lolstack for that man, that was hilarious. And he is kind of right, too!

 

[jymellis]

i like him

 

[JJ Rodriguez]

I think all 3 of his points are stupid. That's just the style

As for point 3, I don't think it's very valid since I think a lot of drummers do shit in the middle of their blasts to break up the monotony. Blast for longer than 10 seconds, people say you're boring. Break it up with fills and people say you can't hold a blast very long

Guy can obviously drum, but anything he has to say about metal is negated by his Bad Religion shirt

 

[vampiregenocide]

I want this guy as my drummer.

 

[WaterWorkzz]

"if you..cant..play as fast as your..left hand, then you should go audition for...NICKELBACK" xD

 

[matty2fatty]

Neil Peart shit, like doot doot doodley doot. Doot doot de doot. Aaaah!

Excellent.

This part made my day

 

[Disco Volante]

lmao at the part with the Neil Peart stuff. I totally agree with this guy though and as much as I like the heavy stuff, I typically do not care for blast beats one bit. I think they just sound like shit 90% of the time. This guy sums it up "it's not cool, it's not heavy"

 

[SYLrules88]

haha i mostly agree with the first two. i havent been trying to do blasts for that long so right now i have to cheat on the first two. but i dont play in a band so its ok. the third one i def agree with him. i fucking hate hearing fills all the damn time. the dude's got some skills though.

 

[TheAceOfSpades1]

I expected to be annoyed at this guy but I actually found it pretty damn funny and I agree to an extent on each of his 3 opinions. I do dread the first drum pattern though..

 

[misingonestring]

The third and final thing I hate about death metal drumming... is THIS!

Best quote ever.

 

[joshc482]

it has a nice kinda jens kidman scream part at "this" part. funny stuff

 

[777timesgod]

HEY GUYS!!! GIVE HIM A BREAK! He is a drummer, speech is a difficult subject for them.

Jokes aside he makes some good points, death metal drumming is more than just the generic blast beats that are becoming commonplace.
