- Setlist:
00:00 Introitus
02:12 Consumed By Repugnance
06:00 Naraka
11:35 Into The Soil
15:41 Suttee
18:36 Engulfed In Excruciation
22:13 Fatal Self-Inflicted Disfigurement
25:28 Butchered Identity
29:47 Insecta Incendium (New Song)
32:28 Calculated Barbarity
There are 3 mistakes in there.
1.In Engulfed I kinda got lost when the tapping part is repeated
2.In Butchered in the tremolo picking part that goes into the chromatic stuff, for some reason I thought the tremolo picking goes up the octave the 2nd time too.It doesn't, but I got back pretty quickly (same mistake happened live too haha)
3.In Insecta, when the two note staccato is repeated I kinda got lost because the volume of the song was pretty low on my headphones and the timing on the recording is wonky too
Sorry for the mix and sound. I didn't record my DI signal and had to work with the recorded sound which had a lot more mids. The songs are from 4 different recordings so with one sound it's not easy. Naraka is probably the worst sounding song in this video.
And no sound while tuning the guitar, didn' t record that haha.
We also played Hunting Humans by Deeds of Flesh live too, but I don't really like that song, so I stuck to the DS songs. I'll probably record Reduced to Ashes some time in the future though ;-)
So this is a video of my personal home rehearsal for my gig with Defeated Sanity at the Party San Open Air. This is how I rehearse before (session) gigs.My normal schedule for learning and rehearsing a set of a band is basically, I usually start a month before the show with learning the songs. I currently have a time-demanding day job which means I can learn about one to two songs a day. So a full set usually takes 1-2 weeks. After that I practice the full set for another 2 weeks everyday one to two times a day like in this video. One week of that is often dedicated to practice with a live performance in mind (not kidding, I like to move on stage haha).
For Defeated Sanity, I traveled to Berlin two times to rehearse with Lille, the drummer and head of the band and then we had one full band rehearsal the day before the show. That concludes my adventure with Defeated Sanity for now. I can't commit full-time because of my job, so they are looking into different guitarists as of now.
Now off to the next session job, which will be filling in for The HAARP Machine at their Euroblast Festival show.
Enjoy the video !!!
it's such a shame you could not fill the role permanately. You are the right man for the job! absolutely jaw dropping work bro! on my third watch
Thanks bro. Yeah lots of people were telling me that after the show, that I'm great fit for the band. Not just playing wise, but look-wise and with my stage performance, but we just couldn't come to an agreement. Sucks, but that's life :)
I figured some people would like a video of me playing for more than 5 minutes haha
Thanks for this. It’s awesome to admire the guitar work in defeated sanity. The riffing is incredible and complex, yet groovy as f*ck. No other band comes close.
Nope not really, they are one of a kind. Kinda sucks that they are not bigger here in europe
Playing this material live was a hell lot of fun
@@KevinHeiderich A long time ago I was at a concert (Neuraxis, The last Felony, I think) and some dude came up to me to tell me my shirt was awesome. I was wearing a DS hoodie. I later figured out that dude was Phil Tougas of First Fragment (and tons of other bands). Point being true connoisseurs of the genre know that DS are awesome.
Couldn't agree more. That guitar work is next level and I can say the same about drums too
You're a beast dude!!!!
Thanks, but you are a beast too dude. Always watched your Children of Bodom videos haha. What are you up to?
@@KevinHeiderich Thanks man! I'm good, Trying to play when I've time, got a mountain of songs to record and videos to make.
Awesome! Good to see you playing again.
Thanks for this vid and the description. Insane skill level.
Thanks for the video, and the extensive description is quite nice for context.
This is so fucking cool, I love being able to see and hear the guitar played so clearly. Your technique is impeccable as always!
Such an enjoyable video. Great playing.
Thank you so much for sharing this!! Amazing!
Magnificent ... as always 🤘 DS фореве !!!
Amazing job bro! You must be the new DF guitarrist, no doubt!
cheers from Chile
Great job man. First watched you on your Necrophagist cover. Nice to see you getting gigs. I am sure the songs arent super easy but you make it look really easy. Superb!!!! 🇨🇦
I’ve probably watched this 100 times within the past couple weeks, great work. I understand you pointing out the minimal mistakes, I do the same when practicing with my band mates
The best metal guitarist full stop.. true shredder🤘🏻
Awesome playing and an awesome band saw them a year or so ago honestly you've put out some of the best guitar playing I've seen on UA-cam
Thanks man, that means a lot to me :)
YOU ARE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad to see you are back.
I knew Naraka was hard but those jarring tempo changes and groups of 5 are a whole other level
Thank you for this!
You just got a new subscriber here. Cheers brother.
Einfach mal ultra sick...kann man nicht anders sagen.....Insecta wow.....wie man dabei so gelangweilt aussehen kann...ARSCH! :D
Ich nenne das "Konzentration in Reinform" :D
Wenn man das so gelangweilt nicht zu Hause hinbekommt, dann ist man nicht bereit für live. Das ist zumindest immer meine Philosophie. Ganz fehlerfrei war es hier jedoch auch nicht :D
@@KevinHeiderich Ja ist schon klar...trotzdem ziehst du das einfach mal ganz schön locker rüber....es kommt zumindest so rüber....die meisten struggeln hier sichtlich...mich eigentlich eingeschlossen lol
Disposal Of The Dead Dharmata - прекрасен! )
Dude you're awesome new Axeman \m/
What a guitarist you are!Christian Kühn has left the band and my personal opinion is that you are maybe not best but excellent substitute for him!You are a hell not only as as guitarist but in general as a musician!I can say two things WOW and i am very impressed by your playing!Keep killin us with excellent work on the that axe!You have my respect!Love your work!👏👍👌
Ooo my fucking god...you fucking really love Brutal death metal and Defeated Sanity.
You are really sick bro!
im watching all the way!
sick!
Thank you for this!
I've always thought that 09:35 Naraka riff is done with sweeps
wait wait wait, you learn a song like this in a DAY? are you serious? that is mindblowing. you're a beast!
That's the most comfortable and stressless way, one song in a day. When I was doing music more seriously I learned 4 songs a day. After 4 songs it kinda gets messy memorising it all and you end up forgetting half of it the next day haha
Such a grandmaster!
Beast 🔥
Awesome!
23:51 gotta love them pinch harmonics on FSID
the description made this video interesting on another level entirely. thanks for adding that info. badass set too. gonna be that guy and ask if you have tabs for any or all of the songs? :)
Cool man. You really like that additional information? I'm not sure about people reading my description and I'm not big on talking.
I'm currently preparing different videos for youtube (tutorials and stuff) and I'm not sure if people on youtube are really interested in what I have to say. Getting some feedback is always great, so thanks for that :)
I will look into the tabs and get back to this message ;-)
@@KevinHeiderich I like it man, can't speak for others but I read it lol
@@KevinHeiderich just got back to this myself to check. any playing insights or important details you put within the descriptions are always a pleasant surprise! especially from an advanced player to a novice.. so thank you again. :)
Hell yes. Love getting a Little extra info and insight from descriptions. Also DS tabs big yes!
Great playing. I see that Neutron too ;) such a great synth. Endless fun
EPIC video on a variety of levels.
I see your strings were able to endure the madness this time too. ;)
Thanks for your dedication and sharing your skills with us, Kevin. It's really inspiring!
I said it once and I'm saying it again; always stoked to see you shredding!!!🤘🤘
Nope they weren't. In preparation for this video, I broke another low E hahaha. I finally figured that it was the picks I use. I changed the picks for Defeated Sanity because the ones I usually use slip too easily which sucks for live playing. I changed from 0.88 Tortex Jazz III to 1.38 Jazz III Max Grip, and since I play with a lot of force coupled with the resistance of thicker picks, that's the reason the low E breaks all the time :D
@@KevinHeiderich thanks for the in-depth response. I think you're approach towards playing is very interesting. Do you have any original material on bandcamp or soundcloud? I remember in another video you mentioned that you got into synths...I'd be hyped to hear anything.
Maschine !
My new idol
US. Tour. With. Devourment.
Is there any video of that gig? :ooo
Really wanna see u jamming with DS... that sounds like a perfect conbination \m/
Awesome, I had no idea , that's how the first riff for chapters, that's wicked, I might have reason to pick my axes off the hangers, and stop drumming for a day
smooth
Great period for the band during 00:00 Introitus 02:12 Consumed By Repugnance , met a really huge girl listening to this album, she had a crazy ass, too, just exciting period in the filth trades of seeing people carted around like luggage for others to feel impressed upon the moral minds of the politicians. Intrious
Respect man
Impressive! Are they looking for a full time member?
brutal!
Is playing cheap guitars something you’re into specifically? Just curious. I kind of hate seeing people that can hardly play obsessing over what exotic woods to use in their $6,000 customs rather than just playing, but I can’t really go without stainless frets anymore so I can’t knock it too too much. love cheaper instruments for sure and gear doesn’t mean a whole lot, but knowing you’re playing a Gio is blowing my mind a bit. You’re a hell of a player man...the dexterity side of things has always been a big focus of mind with my playing and I love the tactile feel of certain riffs, mainly right hand focused stuff like Soreption...but what you’re able to play comfortably is just outrageous man. You’re one of a kind.
Sort of, but this time it was actually out of necessity. I sold all of my gear and only kept what wasn't worth selling which was the GIO and the Washburn. The Washburn has a few dead frets which is the reason I don't play that one anymore. So yeah, I played the gio for the majority of the last years again. (It's my most played guitar btw, have had this for 10 years now) And a tight budget meant I could only buy one piece of equipment for the Defeated Sanity show, which was the Axe fx. And from there I just kept playing it because I like playing it and don't really mind it being a cheap guitar. (Though it's also a statement of sorts, meaning you don't need high end guitars to play good, but that's secondary)
As much as I always wanted high end guitars I'm not that kind of guy I noticed. Function over anything for me. And after a certain budget, 1000€ to be specific, I'm just uncomfortable having something that valuable. Also, I get really picky the more money I pay for something. A guitar that cost 500€ has some minor flaws? Well, depending on the flaws, okay, I'm fine. But for 1000€? Naaah. And I do know that I'm just too picky. It's not criticism of guitars in that price range.
And another thing, for some reason a guitar has to grow on me. Can't really explain why, but the GIO feels like home to me. (As did the M-II and my newly aquired RG350....the RGIX7? Not so much, depends on the day)
So yeah, making cheap guitars sound good does take a bit more effort. Playability is the thing I'm missing most from high end guitars and second to that, the sound. But I play the GIO in high-gain settings most of the time and to be frank, it doesn't matter in a band like Defeated Sanity.
TL,DR: For me the price of high end guitars (or just anything over 1000€) is not worth it. Yes, they do sound better, and they play better, but in the end, I can't justify having a guitar that costs a months salary, or more.
@@KevinHeiderich Really interesting man! Appreciate you getting back to me about this. And I genuinely wasn't trying to be rude or critical about your gear. Again, it's really impressive what you're able to get out of your gear.
Also wanted to ask, have you considered covering any Soreption songs, particularly from their Engineering the Void album? Seems right in your wheelhouse. Anton has pretty crazy picking technique where about 50% of the pick movement is just with his index finger and thumb movement. I've seen people do that, but never really with technical death metal.
27:04 saving this for my own reference, butchered identity main riff
Man , I live naraka!
you are damn insane
what tune for Into The Soil did you use?
You'd grow a mean mustache!
Brooodle!
Richtig geil!!!
Danke :)
@@KevinHeiderich Wieviele Arbeitsstunden stecken darin, das so zu verinnerlichen?
@@splanchnologist3475 Hm ist ne gute Frage. Würde jetzt mal auf die schnelle behaupten so ca. 2 Stunden täglich für 4 Wochen, also ca 40-60 Stunden. Mehr aber auch nicht. Das haut in etwa hin. Mehr als zwei Stunden mache ich innerhalb der Woche eh nichtam Tag und sobald ich das Set drin habe, spiele ich es ein bis zwei mal täglich.
Für den ganzen Auftritt gingen natürlich noch 2 Wochenenden rein zum Proben mit Lille drauf plus nochmal ein Tag extra für ne Probe mit der ganzen Band. Da bin ich mehr Auto gefahren als alles Andere haha
@@KevinHeiderich Schöne Grüße an den Karpaltunnel XD Nee, Quatsch! Hoffe sehr, dass du bei dieser Belastung schmerzfrei bleibst. Ist eine wahre Freude deinem Spiel zuzuhören und zuzusehen. Weiter so! 👍
You look like you can play this stuff in your sleep haha. Good job
Hi,can you give me the note of your tuning?and your string gauge?
Teach me your ways 😮
Will do some tutorial videos in the future ;-)
For picking in general though, not for Defeated Sanity
@@KevinHeiderich I understand. feel like I could find my way with suttee and into the soil having watched you, just the same. But still, awesome!
What gauge strings do you use for c standard?
please tell me what amplifiers and cabinets are used on DS gigs?
I used my axe fx back then. If I remember correctly it was the "Das Metal" model, which should be based on a Diezel. And I used two cabinets in series, which is not something you should do, but worked well to get that Defeated Sanity scooped mids signature tone. (I don't have that axe fx anymore, so I can't look up that preset).
Christian always used his Line 6 rig, which is basically that signature Defeated Sanity live tone, if you're interested. Just a regular POD (2 I think) rack unit and one of the Line 6 amp models. And studio wise I think they used something different each album, but one combination was a JCM2000 with a distortion pedal at some point. (Distortion pedal wise I know they used a Fullbore Metal, which I think is a MXR pedal, and that Zoom Tri-Metal pops into my head but I'm not sure about that one)
@@KevinHeiderich thank you very much for the answer, you helped me a lot!
Why a gio though?
6.66k subs
Dude... please notate and upload these covers on UltimateGuitar or something. At least Naraka. Fucking sick set btw
Can we get the tab for Introitus, sir? .. I’ll pay for it
Don't need to pay. Here it is, as transcribed by me and double-checked by Lille, with no corrections needed :)

@@KevinHeiderich you’re the man! thanks boss
Du spielst das echt zu lässig xd christian hat sich bei diesen set bestimmt 20 mal die zunge abgebissen xd
and stay away from slowing down too cause you know what this could sound like right ?/
Fuck...
this is getting kind of outdated don't you think? ?
maybe try to develop a different genre of death metal? i think it's perfect timing too
