Man if u want crazy bpm do aaron kitcher of infant annihilator id suggest the song cuncrusher or soil the stillborn but any of their songs are off the charts awesome
Don’t know if you noticed on the video on the foot cam, but even at the slower steady double bass licks he was using double strokes for most the entire song, first one ive ever seen do doubles at a speed in which it’s easier to do single strokes
I know the drum playthrough is ideal for your channel but if you get the chance in your own time you've gotta check out the full song with vocals for the pauses to make sense 👌👍
So cool, I saw this guy 10 years ago in the basement rehearsal room “red gates” as an administrator, and every free minute he studied and practiced his machine-gun blast bits, and now I see him on the Andrew channel, I'm so proud of him 🤘 Заебись!

Drummers like this and even guitarists blow my freakin mind not even just because of their skill in playing stuff like this but because they can actually remember everything.
Yes! So glad you did this one! 🤘🏻🥳 He has two other playthroughs that I highly recommend. The songs are called Baba Yaga and Zavali Ebalo. He is a beast!! 👌🏻
Passion and determination will get you anywhere. I remember a story about a guitarist (learning guitarist).....he practiced a certain song for a year or two. He finally nailed it. Come to find out......the song was played with TWO guitars!
Andy, love the channel, that's why I'm going to say, STOP APOLOGIZING FOR STOPPING THE VIDEOS! This is the entire point of your channel and is why I watch and like every video you put out. Just do your thing, my man. Anyone that doesn't like it can suck a dingo! :)
This dude is unbelievable. Cool thing to note how much bass plays into the song as well, even with the insane drums it still sounded a bit open/empty without all of the heavy resonance
Gotta appreciate Evgeny's ability to push out such agressive drums and still be tight and groovy about it. I've never understood where the man finds the time, even on live concerts, to do friggin' stick flips between fills lol
Correct. You pronounced his name just right. Yep, it was one-handed gravity blast. Also Stick are reverse grip. Slow part in the end - it was breakdown, where Vocalist perform most
Vinnie Paul used to play custom sticks that had no tips at all rather than play regular sticks upside down. He wasn't the most technical drummer but damn did he hit hard.
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Don Caballero has an amazing drummer who plays upside down sticks. There's nothing to react to as far as i know (no quality live shows on youtube or playthroughs), but in your own time i definitely recommend checking out the first couple of albums. He's a unique player. The band is basically designed to allow him to show off the whole time.
If I remember hearing right… the main reason for him playing with the sticks like that was because he hits so hard and just kept breaking sticks constantly
This drummer is just a cut above the other drummers in this genre that I have watched. I haven't watched too many, but enough to say what I said. This drummer can do it all. Great reaction
I love your voice, it's so calming! Great video and reaction! I highly recommend watching the official music video of this song, even if you possibly don't like this kind of music, you certainly can not miss the vocals! 💘
It's american thing. They read them always: Track title - Artist/Band So if it's "Slaughter to Prevail - Demolisher" for them it's always Slaughter to Prevail by Demolisher.
I enjoy this type of music. That being said, some drummers for this type of music just play fast and its very dull. I love this drummer and the drummer for Lorna Shore. They use the fills as well as cymbal work on top of the double bass and blast beats. Love it.
I smoked some chicken legs and ate them while watching this. You gotta please as many senses as you can all at the same time. Crazy accurate drumming right there.
I've got an extreme drummer that I don't think you've done yet, and he's one of the most influential out there: Derek Roddy. He's best known for his work with Hate Eternal and Nile, but these days he mostly does clinic work if I remember correctly. He's also one of the most down to earth, reasonable, no-bullshit musicians I've ever had the pleasure of speaking with.
this song is an absolute monster! Made my day that you whent that dark! gonna have to agree with all the other dudes here saying you should check out the song with vocals aswell. Alex Terrible (vocals) has the lowest scream / growl that i have ever herd. This song is just an absolute banger. and the drums sound even better Imo on top of the track. just masterfully played
He was the first drummer I noticed is holding the sticks backwards? just compared to how most people do it. Guess others have done this also, been trying to check out how many other drummers do this, I never noticed this before him, It still Amazes me the amount of talented people out there in the world
I'm with you man, whether or not this is yours/my style of music or anyone else's (its totally mine though) how could someone not recognize and properly acknowledge the musicianship and artistry it takes to do things like this? I think 75% of those dislikes have 1 thing in common..jealousy..love your reactions thank you
Thanks Kyle. The best thing about making these videos is I have to stop and listen to something I wouldn't normally. And it's being amazing. Totally changed things for me
Dude, I'm constantly telling my non metal friends that it really is worth listening to just to appreciate how genuinely fucked up good the musicians are in these bands
I'm not a drummer but this is really cool and makes sense for the actual song which I recommend the official video of Demolisher from slaughter to prevail because it will make the drum part make more sense on how its played. Anyhoo happy listening:)
STP is the band. 'Demolisher' is the song name. Fun fact: Evgeny plays with the sticks upside down so he's actually holding the heads of the sticks and the butts of the sticks are the ones actually hitting the heads
I agree with his drumming is like the Olympics. To get to my fastest double kick speed it too me 2 years of 3 hr days drumming that I even got to master the swivel technique to match my speed. And if you had a few days off you could feel then strain of trying to keep up.
I have no idea how did I end up here what I do know that I'm howling after seeing your reaction at 6:17. Brilliant !!! Btw, I'm not familiar with this dude (I like more '90 stuff), but obviously he's freaking good
I have absolutely no idea what that was . But man I totally respect the stamina accuracy and dedication it must take to do this .. I also feel very , very old ! .... oh hang on, I am ..... Peace and love brother 👍🏻☮❤

@@CSBRTV1 Заебись! Ларс и рядом не стоял...🤘🏻
I wish I would’ve found this band sooner. I absolutely love them
Awesome bit of history here! Thanks!
This dude is a monster. I've been jamming this new album non stop since it came out.
Awesome James!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums he was also in a band called katalepsy. There’s some drum playthroughs of those songs too.
Lets not even mention the backwards drumsticks.
@@charliewenthe4411 I forgot about that. I need to watch those.
I love that it looks like your cam straight froze for about 30 seconds before your first pause. Yeah, me too man.
HAHA Jesse!
Only been a few vids that have floored me like that!
Drummers like this and even guitarists blow my freakin mind not even just because of their skill in playing stuff like this but because they can actually remember everything.
thats why you rehears the song u make with the band you know practice then u remember everything XD
Yes, guitarists and drummers compliment each other so well. And base is very important too.
"This is how you hold your drum stick"
Evgeny Novikov: No
HAHA!
"Nyet, Stick is fine"
"That was not only fast, it was super tasty".
Haha that quote is great.
Was waiting for a comment about the upside down sticks!
I didn't even notice in the moment until people started mentioning it!
My uncle used to play with upside down sticks when he was in his band. I asked him why back in the day and he said he liked the sound of it.
I really admire you for watching metal drumming videos when it’s out of your comfort zone. Your insights are really good. Really enjoy your videos!
I've really enjoyed getting out of my comfort zone :)
@@AndrewRooneyDrums here’s to many more videos! Really happy I found your channel
Especially something as hardcore as Slaughter to Prevail^^
“It’s the Olympics of drumming” very well put
Haha yup Jeremy 👌
I love how Evgeniy plays with his sticks backwards, I’ve tried adopting that into my playing and it’s pretty cool it feels really good
Yup I do that too.
Yes! So glad you did this one! 🤘🏻🥳 He has two other playthroughs that I highly recommend. The songs are called Baba Yaga and Zavali Ebalo. He is a beast!! 👌🏻
Yes but the real question is: Does he have any brush technique?
That’s a good looking question! 😅😉
ua-cam.com/video/1MHuR-mKc9M/v-deo.html
Evgeny blasting like a machine is insane when you realize he's doing it with the butt of his sticks
Yes!
Evgeny is a BEAST on drums... I love metal music due to the insane body work and just pure ENERGY!!!!! SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL KICKS ASS!!!!!!
💯👌
Metal has unbeatable energy!
The people who dislike this video clearly don’t appreciate music, period.
Passion and determination will get you anywhere.
I remember a story about a guitarist (learning guitarist).....he practiced a certain song for a year or two. He finally nailed it. Come to find out......the song was played with TWO guitars!
🤣👌
Yup anything is possible
I love how he was so stunned he froze mid karate chop for nearly a minute 😄
Andy, love the channel, that's why I'm going to say, STOP APOLOGIZING FOR STOPPING THE VIDEOS! This is the entire point of your channel and is why I watch and like every video you put out. Just do your thing, my man. Anyone that doesn't like it can suck a dingo! :)
Confirmed comment :D
This dude is unbelievable. Cool thing to note how much bass plays into the song as well, even with the insane drums it still sounded a bit open/empty without all of the heavy resonance
This man is something else. The whole band is amazing. Great reaction
Dont know how i came across this but im a big Slaughter fan, theyre russian and perform phenomenal. Alex terrible is also very humble
Gotta appreciate Evgeny's ability to push out such agressive drums and still be tight and groovy about it.
I've never understood where the man finds the time, even on live concerts, to do friggin' stick flips between fills lol
I hear the vocals in my head while listening to this
Excellent Madis 🙌
Correct. You pronounced his name just right. Yep, it was one-handed gravity blast. Also Stick are reverse grip. Slow part in the end - it was breakdown, where Vocalist perform most
I love how evgeny uses his sticks backwards for the heavier sound. I don’t drum myself but I believe it does do that.
Yup I often play left stick backwards
Vinnie Paul used to play custom sticks that had no tips at all rather than play regular sticks upside down. He wasn't the most technical drummer but damn did he hit hard.

Transitions from heel-toe blasts to single foot unbelievably smooth
I just recently found this band and they’re all around talented but their drummer is something out of this world.
I’ve seen some of his stuff from his older band and he’s incredible. So much talent
Can't wait to check out more
Slaughter to Prevail is the band. The song is called Demolisher. Just FYI! Great vid.
It's american thing.
They read them always:
Track title - Artist/Band
So if it's "Slaughter to Prevail - Demolisher" for them it's always Slaughter to Prevail by Demolisher.
Evgeny is by far one of the most entertaining drummers i saw in my whole life! This Guy is so fkn crazy!
You must check out "Zavali Ebalo". It will show you a lot more of evgeny's chops and overall technique
Thanks for the tip!
The face that Andrew makes in the thumbnail, is the same face everyone makes when they hear slaughter to prevail for the first time.
HAHA!
Nope. My face was something between over excited and extremely happy lol
I enjoy this type of music. That being said, some drummers for this type of music just play fast and its very dull. I love this drummer and the drummer for Lorna Shore. They use the fills as well as cymbal work on top of the double bass and blast beats. Love it.
Andrew love your channel I appreciate how especially for a non metal head how you’ve give flower for the genre all the time
I love the 50k sub plaque, it’s my favorite UA-cam has put out so far
Me too!
I smoked some chicken legs and ate them while watching this. You gotta please as many senses as you can all at the same time. Crazy accurate drumming right there.
Actually loled how frozen you were the first minute
🤣🤦🏼
Он шо замерз на первой минуте игры Евгения?))) Эмоции и всё тело застыло просто)))
I've got an extreme drummer that I don't think you've done yet, and he's one of the most influential out there: Derek Roddy.

He's also one of the most down to earth, reasonable, no-bullshit musicians I've ever had the pleasure of speaking with.
I've never seen Derek Roddy. Have heard amazing things. Good tip!
That breakdown came in I got up and threw down in my livingroom breakdown was tough
this song is an absolute monster! Made my day that you whent that dark! gonna have to agree with all the other dudes here saying you should check out the song with vocals aswell.

Please look at some Dirk Verburen drumming on YT. I would love to see you review any of his drumming videos!
In case you missed it, hes holding his drumsticks backwards, just FYI :D
Wow really? Why is he doing that?
@@thedonsz9186 why not?
@@josephprince3111 idk, I'm just curious, I have no idea
@@thedonsz9186 the back end of the stick is thicker so the sound seems a lot deeper
@@aaronirick198 that makes sense! Thank you
Those gravity blasts are killer!
those gravity blasts are triggered..........i fixed it for you
@@erokbossan420 using triggers is better than being so triggered about using triggers
@@erokbossan420 cry more
you should do a react to the rev recording almost easy in the studio
I love how his drums are tuned. You know they're skin tight but they sound like they're really loose
Sound great Anthony
Well, the snare and kick are triggered.
I'm not a drummer but this is really cool and makes sense for the actual song which I recommend the official video of Demolisher from slaughter to prevail because it will make the drum part make more sense on how its played. Anyhoo happy listening:)
Checkout the drum play throughs of Spiritbox's drummer Zev Rose. Think they have 2 or 3 out now.
I know that look! It’s the look of Astonishment! 😂
HAHA Kent!
Yup!
Yes!!! Was hoping you’d check these out! Looking forward to seeing you check out the other songs as well!
STP is the band. 'Demolisher' is the song name. Fun fact: Evgeny plays with the sticks upside down so he's actually holding the heads of the sticks and the butts of the sticks are the ones actually hitting the heads
I like how for the first minute hes just sitting still like
😧🤚
Yup Travis LOL
Didn't know if you notice he plays everything with the opposite side of the drumsticks 🤘🏼
Drum Play-Through Evgeny Novikov - Ouroboros.... highly recommended! this video gonna blow your mind
If you want to see some gravity blasting check out the official video for Drone Corpse Aviator by Archspire. The song approaches the speed of light.
I'm hearing a huge despised icon influence!
When your drummer whips out stuff even a drum teacher doesn't know thats how you know they're good
Awesome break down in to things. Totally agree with you on the dislike part!
People are weird... LOL
Yesterday will happen again...next week
I once saw a comment that said "He beat that China like it owes him money." Had me in stitches.
This drummer is awesome......Got his 💩 together
I love his pose on the first pause.
Foot work just lit!!!
Awesome drumming
Wow this is not human 💥
In metal that "grind tempo" is called a break down
Awesome. Thanks for the info Quinton!
'The Olympics of Drumming' 😁
LOL
i felt that double kick unbelievable
Evgeny Novikov of STP and Igor Cavalera of Sepultura are GOAT metal drummers.
It’s demolisher by slaughter to prevail btw
👌🏼 use of memes and sound bites are still always on point😂.
that breakdown is just 120bpm, nothing crazy (well technically 119.79 according to reaper but ill just round it to 120)
in some Vids he played the sticks with the end instead of the tips, he is a pure technical speed demon.
I agree with his drumming is like the Olympics. To get to my fastest double kick speed it too me 2 years of 3 hr days drumming that I even got to master the swivel technique to match my speed. And if you had a few days off you could feel then strain of trying to keep up.
I bet Dan!
Blows my mind this drummer plays with his sticks backwards. I’ve tried it just out of curiosity, that is so uncomfortable and feels so bizarre
It's really comfy for me on my snare (left) hand
What do you mean sorry? He told the sticks the wrong way round? and uses the “handle” to hit the skins or he holds them in like marching grip?
@@davidc830 yes. No proven difference, some people just like the feel / sound
I can’t get over the fact that the sign sitting on the snare to the side says “Andew Rooney” 😝
Aww shit he got stank face from hearing the kicks 😈
And the mini headbang for the breakdown 😂
You just gotta love this drummer
Great reaction
Yo thanks!
YES! I recommended this one some weeks ago. Thanks, my son has started playing drums and is a big STP fan.
Thanks for this review
You bet!
I have no idea how did I end up here what I do know that I'm howling after seeing your reaction at 6:17.
Brilliant !!!
Btw, I'm not familiar with this dude (I like more '90 stuff), but obviously he's freaking good
Welcome! Hope you dig into many new drummers on my reactions :)
you can just put a hourglass on your forehead and with the title "processing" untill 3min hahah, that was perfect reaction.
I want to see a drum battle now, metal vs. classical and see who's better
Interesting you mention Virgil Donati. I went through College with his nephew.
Nothing like beating that China like it owes you money during a breakdown. 🤘
HAHA
every body starts from beginning, try to play some Sabbath, Iron Maiden, no need double kick ! check out song Flight Of Icarus by IM
As fucking crazy as this playthrough is an instrumental version of the song can not do justice to how awesome it is. You gotta hear it with vocals
Thought your image frooze when he started playing 😂😂😂👍🏻
Undeniably good
I have absolutely no idea what that was . But man I totally respect the stamina accuracy and dedication it must take to do this ..
I also feel very , very old ! .... oh hang on, I am .....
Peace and love brother 👍🏻☮❤
I'm old too. LOL
They're called blast beats man
Yes. Thanks mate
Check out, Austin Damond, Devildriver. Drum cam, Clouds over California.
Thanks!
It looked like you froze at 2:55 for a good 20 seconds but the clip kept going 😆 amazing effect
I'm glad you like it, kiwi Bruce Willis. Welcome to the family.
I'm supprised that you never commented on the heel toe bass drum technique not seen very often and some serious speed.
For sure Nick.
Thanks for bringing it up
