@FutileExistence Hardcore came out in 81'(DRI, Charged GBH, Discharge, etc). Without it, there would be no thrash or death metal. I agree though that Death metal is like 20 time better. :P
@marauder622 Well for the first example of the skank, if he's playing 8ths between kick and snare, what is his right hand doing (on hihat)? Is he matching his kick and snare?
:35 , just so I'm interpreting this right. His double stroke on the cymbal with his right foot is in sync with kick and snare (as in first stroke on cymbal at the same time with kick, and the second stroke on cymbal with snare)?
That is one of the most important things of being a drummer. Because nobody likes any kind of musician that is too serius. Than the music sucks. But if we all were the same then the world would be boring
@MRLariful and your point? Tons of extremely talented drummers use triggers. Its not a cheating thing, its a way to get the exact sound from your drum that you want. A beat played on a normal drumset (not electric) is a solid beat played. The triggers Kollias "uses" (I havent researched that) are because he wants his own unique sound.
is there a particular technique you are using for your kicks?? i want to go as fast as you but it's just IMPOSSIBLE!!!!! what pedals do you use and do you have some tips??
@MRLariful triggers dont affect speed only the sound the drum makes like using distortion in a guitar, in my opinion triggers are a great tool in drumming, they allow you to here where you fuck up in your kick patterns more because each note is a solid note, with out the triggers your bass drum may have to much ring for fast playing & all your strokes will sound like one not, joey uses double pedals so he doesnt mic both kicks live nor does he play at those speeds where its needed.
God damn. For a drumming noob like me, I'm working on Jason Bittner's regimen of doing a single stroke roll on the snare, and right foot matching my right hand. (So, left hand is the upbeat, or the "e" and "uh" of the beat). Then move your right hand to the ride cymbal (for me, just to the rim). So far, I'm only at skank beat tempo and I'm surprised how it works - I'm able to even attempt a skank beat for the first time ever. Practice, practice, practice!
HabAnagarek the traditional blast (or as kollias just calls it blast beat) here is like doing a simple single stroke roll on the snare, just that you shift one hand to the cymbal
@naplame No Sense by DRI is the "first" evidence of a blast beat. DRI started in 81. I know Wehrmacht used blast beats but they are crossover thrash...
@UnwillingOrigins Indeed he is. Personally, that's the only way to do a skank IMO, unless the tempo is 140-ish bpm (or 280, depends how you want to interpret the tempo)
@naplame Hardcore drummers were the first to utilize the blast beat(and skank beat) as far as intense genres go. Afterwords, thrash metal bands adopted it. Finally, death metal perfected it.
thats why he doesn't play just blast beats. just because hes popular for OMG BLASTBEAST BR00TAL and his foot techniques, doesn't mean he isn't creative.
this looks so easy. of course, thats cuz George Kollias played it. this dvd should come with a warning lablel: "WARNING: feel free to watch, but attempt at your own risk"

1:47 sounds like annihilation of the wicked. this guy is awesome
this guy is a master. this is insane.
1.47 is what it's all about...playing the blast with 1 foot. it just doesn't sound the same when alternating left and right on the kicks.
My favourite sounding snare for blast beats

He looks like Nergal.
Excellent
HE IS THE PHARAOH

@FutileExistence
Hardcore came out in 81'(DRI, Charged GBH, Discharge, etc). Without it, there would be no thrash or death metal. I agree though that Death metal is like 20 time better. :P
My top fave drummers: George Kolias, Dave Lambardo, Inferno, Frost.
how gym exercices depends of blastbeat?
of course he is the best
@marauder622 Well for the first example of the skank, if he's playing 8ths between kick and snare, what is his right hand doing (on hihat)? Is he matching his kick and snare?
You're inspiring
Dang! Wish I could do that
@Prelude1383 wut about derek roddy?
@happyburial wht about flour munier from cryptopsy ?
FUUUCCCKKK!!!!, he makes it all look so easy!!!.
I was keeping speed with him for a little bit, but then I just stopped. I couldn't keep going that fast for long at all.
:35 , just so I'm interpreting this right. His double stroke on the cymbal with his right foot is in sync with kick and snare (as in first stroke on cymbal at the same time with kick, and the second stroke on cymbal with snare)?
@Zazquatch1, got a problem with derek roddy?
derek roddy calls the down blast a hammer blast!!
kid you gotta let this go
@CamerOneiric
You're right. Its about technique and opinions.
That is one of the most important things of being a drummer. Because nobody likes any kind of musician that is too serius. Than the music sucks. But if we all were the same then the world would be boring
@MRLariful and your point? Tons of extremely talented drummers use triggers. Its not a cheating thing, its a way to get the exact sound from your drum that you want.

@iThrashNano
I know sir.... -__-
Venom came out in 79' and they are thrash, speed, NWOBHM.
damn dat right foot...
@jayb613 Death metal came bt 1982, 1983. Somewhere in that era. Was really underground till atleast 86 though.
is there a particular technique you are using for your kicks?? i want to go as fast as you but it's just IMPOSSIBLE!!!!! what pedals do you use and do you have some tips??
yea true.
@iThrashNano
wrong, Venom a huge influence of black metal. But they are thrash, speed, NWOBHM.
They were proto-black metal
@roholinkinpark
perhaps, compared to the kit Kollias has now. But it is hand made in limited production in Greece, check out Gabriel drums
@MRLariful triggers dont affect speed only the sound the drum makes like using distortion in a guitar, in my opinion triggers are a great tool in drumming, they allow you to here where you fuck up in your kick patterns more because each note is a solid note, with out the triggers your bass drum may have to much ring for fast playing & all your strokes will sound like one not, joey uses double pedals so he doesnt mic both kicks live nor does he play at those speeds where its needed.
I call it a hardcore beat since most hardcore bands play it.

3)Inferno
@lolBAkeLOL: Eat drums, sleep on the drums, play drums, Eat more drums, sleep in the bass drum, Play even more drums, become god.
bomb blast at 2:00 is awesome!!!!!!!
I want to learn how to move my feet really fast cuz i can do the blast beats pretty well but i need more speed in my feet!
Can someone tell me the exact difference between a down blast, and a regular blast?
@xBaphometHx And in france we said poum tchak poum tchak ha!
@Haddockxyz300 Hellhammer? Have you ever even heard Fleshgod Apocalypse?
Hey, my Son. Yes, I know. But i'm really proud of you. Great Drumwork.^^

@Haddockxyz300 Ya I guess so, there are just many fucking amazing ones.
@naplame
No Sense by DRI is the "first" evidence of a blast beat.
DRI started in 81.
I know Wehrmacht used blast beats but they are crossover thrash...
@lolBAkeLOL what do you mean eat, sleep?
have you ever heard about George Kollias?
@nigelic You must check Inferno from Behemoth!
1:04 which tempo is that, like 180?
The blast boat ? :DDDD
@happyburial mr inferno from behemoth also
@UnwillingOrigins Indeed he is. Personally, that's the only way to do a skank IMO, unless the tempo is 140-ish bpm (or 280, depends how you want to interpret the tempo)
ΓΕΙΑ ΣΟΥ ΕΛΛΑΔΑΡΑ ΜΕ ΤΑ ΤΑΛΕΝΤΑ ΣΟΥ !!!
@McBrain222 drummer of here comes the kraken sick drumming

@2ra0bid9 EMAD2 is where it's at for bass drums dude
i dont think i will ever be able to play like this lol. he is fucking insane. but im not even 16 yet so i guess i have some time to learn how to.
You're 27 now, can you do blast beats?
@jayb613
I know this... but Death Metal came in the 80s as well. =)
@mateoarv 200%AGREED!
@naplame
Hardcore drummers were the first to utilize the blast beat(and skank beat) as far as intense genres go. Afterwords, thrash metal bands adopted it. Finally, death metal perfected it.
Tim Yeung's gotta be in there somewhere.
thats why he doesn't play just blast beats. just because hes popular for OMG BLASTBEAST BR00TAL and his foot techniques, doesn't mean he isn't creative.
@giantfruitybuds blast beat have no accent
down beat accents on the down beat.
i think
this looks so easy.
of course, thats cuz George Kollias played it.
this dvd should come with a warning lablel: "WARNING: feel free to watch, but attempt at your own risk"
1. Pete Sandoval
2.Derek Roddy
3.Dan Beehler
@blastbeatvn that happens at the end of the week
