Do not understimate Frederik's work and dedication, he is such a great drummer too. Obviously, his way of playing is mainly inspired by Thomen's and Thomen's performances are still at the top, but I think Frederick recreates pretty well the traditional sound of Blind Guardian. I'd love to see them both playing live with two drums like Genesis have done in so many of their concerts.
Adrian Morgan i know.. Frederik is a great drummer too... no doubt...it's just that the band changed their sound a lot, and personally I prefer how it was before... cheers🍺🍺🍺🤘🏿
Volvé thomen!!! Sos un máster!!! El nuevo batero de blind no te llega ni ala zuela de los zapatos. No te ata ni los corrdones de las zapatilla. Sos una inmensa enseñanza en batería. Gracias yo también soy un baterista umilde y gracias a Dios soy un batero humilde y bien hecho de abajo. Gracias thomen por tu talento y tu forma de ser. 💪👍🦁Saludos desde 🇦🇷
Blind Guardian - Imaginations Through the Looking Glass.....great performance my friend. We miss you playing in the band blind guardian. I'm from Brazil. Hug!
The most important song of my life and the most important drummer... because of you I meet the power metal and started to play drummer!! You rocks Mr Thomen!!! I hope to see you playing alive again... \m/
Thanks, dear friend! ❤ Check out my new power metal band MENTALIST, please. Next year you can hopefully see me live with them. Take care and cheers, Thomen
@@ThomenDrumChamber I've checked your new band! I liked so much and I'm following you in Instagram... If Mentalist come to Brazil next year, for sure, I will be there! Cheers my friend!
i think this is what made this band. tight playing on the bass drum and guitars with virtuous drumming and guitarplaying. the singer finishes it off with amazing vocal power
When the Blind Guardian had a really fast and heavy music I miss songs like this one the band never recorded something like this after Imaginations from the Other Side.
Thomen thank you for these videos, watching them is a great fun for me, because I can pick my guitar here and try to play along.... what a great performance! Greetings from Brazil!
Thank you for opening up your channel and recording these videos. BG totally lost their backbone after you left. You're an absolute monster behind the drumkit!
I remember buying my music teacher ANATO in 2004. He said it wasn't really his taste, but he listened to it constantly because "the drummer is from another planet".
Mr Thomen! This version is a bit slower than Tokyo Tales'. Was it a decision you all made or just happened to play slower as the years went by? Ah, and do you use metronome on stage? Once more, congratulations for all your work in BG, you are a great artist! Cheers from Rio!
Thanks Ricardo! Oops...i really don't remember, if we changed the bpm compared to before. Maybe I just did a little mistake to put the wrong bpm on my clicktrack machine. Or i just had to much adrenaline that day in Tokyo. 😂😂 Or the alcohol level from the night before made me go nuts... 😂 🙈🙈🤘🤘
Hahaha! Ich habe das gleiche Handtuch, gleiche Farbe und Größe, an meinem Schlagzeug hängen 😂 Ansonsten schön, dich diesen Song trommeln zu sehen. Hat Spaß gemacht 👍🏼
@@ThomenDrumChamber They are not the same without you...i stopped listening their albums since you left the band.. didn't like the new sound that they chose to give us..i prefer the old blind guardian sound.. Love Thomen!!!
@@ThomenDrumChamber Man greetings from Greece ,i grew old with your drumming in Blind guardian!!! This sound was so magic😍❤️ with the other guys and unique chemistry ! This is the truth . Blind guardian have lost their orientation without you 😢
Hey Thomen, can you comment on your foot technique for this song? Are you using full leg motion or are you doing ankle motion? Since the speed is not too high, I imagine one could use both in this song
Great work as always! I also really enjoyed seeing you play Neil Peart stuff on Temples Of Syrinx! A technical question: I always really enjoyed your snare sound, especially on IFTOS where it sounds really natural, and I think a lot of it comes from your, as was said in the BG RockHard Interview series, very physical but still precise drumming style (which I love, and I'm not the only one, whenever I talk about BG with someone this comes up), but from the equipment side, which snares do you own and which one do you play in this video? And is there a chance you go a bit in depth about your equipment and drum tuning? Thanks a lot!
It would be amazing to see you create Painkiller cover (Judas Priest) - basically, my "metal childhood" compressed. Although, universe might collapse if you do that cover ....
Yeah, that's really so kind from the people watching my videos. I love you all and thanks soooo much for this unbelievable positive support from all sides! You all rock so fuckin much! 😘😘❤❤❤🤘🤘
Wir vermissen dich in the Guardian...
Thomen, without you Blind Guardian aren't the same. plz come back.
Fabian Herrera agree dude👍
I hope Thomen, Hansi, Olbrich and Siepen talks seriously about that
Imaginations from the other side dude 😉🤘
Perfect words Man!!! No Thomen = no Guardian :(

This one is my favorite Blind Guardian song. And you are the best drummer they should have.
The best Blind Guardian music!!! Great Thomen!
Fire!!! Nothing beats that old 80s energy!
Es ist ungläublich! Wie alle meine gute alte Erinnerungen bei Festivals mit Blind Guardian

We need Thomen to make Blind Guardian great again, such power!!
That closing of the Hi-Hat at 1:34 is pure awesomeness.
i think this is what made this band. tight playing on the bass drum and guitars with virtuous drumming and guitarplaying. the singer finishes it off with amazing vocal power
Simply AMAZING. The best drummer ever.

Thank you so fuckin much! One of my favorites; love the agression from the old Blind Guardian tunes!
When the Blind Guardian had a really fast and heavy music I miss songs like this one the band never recorded something like this after Imaginations from the Other Side.
One of my favorite Blind Guardian tracks. Thank you so much for doing this!
Live! Is the best power metal album ever.

Like always, great performance. I love how you accompany the drawings of the guitars with your rhythms and the dynamics that your playing has!
Thomen, the biggest...
Just amazing. Please do Banish from sanctuary!!!
I'm from Russia. I was at a concert in St.Petersburg. I lost my voice when I sang these brilliant songs. Some of the best memories in my life
It's just gratifying to see you playing this work of art Master!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🖤

Oooooohhhhhhhhh majesty !
Killer like always🔥🤘🏿🔥🍺

Must be something really special, playing drum lines you originally composed at 15 years old. 😁
😂😂🤘❤
Well played 🤘👏🔥
Used to jam a lot to this, along with a bunch of other BG songs. Learned a lot from you Thomen. Thanks for being awesome. 🤘😎🤘
You're welcome! Thanks a lot for this awesome comment here! 🤗🤘❤
I miss your BG live performances 😓
Nice Video
Hey, Thomen! I would love to hear more songs from "A Night at the Opera". Especially "Wait for an Answer" - that song has some awesome drum lines! :D
Hahaha! Ich habe das gleiche Handtuch, gleiche Farbe und Größe, an meinem Schlagzeug hängen 😂 Ansonsten schön, dich diesen Song trommeln zu sehen. Hat Spaß gemacht 👍🏼
Thomen you must come back to blind guardian and bring us a new album with the old music note!!!
Hahahaaa....thanks bro, but I think this won't happen. They have Fred and I have now Mentalist and Dawn Of Amber. 🤗❤
@@ThomenDrumChamber They are not the same without you...i stopped listening their albums since you left the band.. didn't like the new sound that they chose to give us..i prefer the old blind guardian sound.. Love Thomen!!!

AWESOME!!!! BRUTAL!!!! You're the best my friend. Would you record an Iron Maiden song? "Where Eagles Dare", for example. Hugs from Brazil!
I N S A N E!!!!
Amazing 🤘😎🤘 05/08/2024
Thomen, im gonna go teach the drums at age 40, Its all about "inspiration"
Hey Thomen, can you comment on your foot technique for this song? Are you using full leg motion or are you doing ankle motion? Since the speed is not too high, I imagine one could use both in this song
Full leg motion, always, on all songs!
OLEEÊ OLÊ OLÊ OLEEEEÊ THOMEEEEN THOMEEEEN!
No comments.. Only... 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Impecable como siempre amigo Thomen.
Pará qué son los audífonos? Pará protegerse del ruido?
Saludos 🇩🇪🇨🇱
Muchas gracias, amigo! Si! Para protegerme del ruido de la bateria y para escuchar a la canción que estoy tocando y grabando. Un abrazo!🤗🤘❤

BG is incomplete without Thomen
