  • How to do a gravity blast/ one hand roll (freehand roll/ fulcrum technique). Recorded the summer of 2005 and at the moment, I was 17,.
    Note: The reason I named this video "The Swedish Gravity Blast" is because it's in Swedish, not because I claim that I or any other Swedish person invented the technique.
    A bit sloppy at some points, but hey, it did this on the behalf of a friend of mine.

      Be happy with what you have. At least you have a girlfriend. Many people, including myself, don't have a girlfriend, boyfriend, partner or anyone, hell there's people who don't have good friends. You know what I mean? I personally would rather want a girlfriend who can blast beat like that or play metal guitar, or maybe bass lol.

    This shows that, even if your roadies are clumsy oafs and destroy your kit, you can still perform a death metal concert perfectly well on just a snare. (I mean this as a compliment.)
