    By FAR the heaviest song I've done yet, w00t. I've been playing double bass for about a year and a half now, with most of that time focused on using the heel-toe technique, so I LOVE using it; but (as you can see) I still have to concentrate super hard when doing some intense and extended stuff, aswell as getting a bit tired near the end :) Unbelievable technique though, playing all the strokes as singles would be impossible for me at this stage, so maximum respect for anybody who can do all the double bass stuff with straight up single strokes.
    As for the genre, not a lot of people know that I LOVE this type of music. Music that is ALL screamo and growling is a bit heavy for me, but post-hardcore and heavy metal that is as melodic as it is heavy is one my all-time favorite genres. Unfortunately I'm not very good at the drumming style yet (any hardcore metal drummers inna house will see that my blasting SUCKS and is actually cheating with the fact that I'm leading with my dominant hand on the snare just playing alternated 16th notes..) and that is the reason why I haven't done any songs like this yet; wanted to get it up to a standard where I felt comfortable posting it on YT (but I'm definitely going to keep working at it). I absolutely LOVE the intensity of the music and the drumming, so expect some more heavy covers in the future.

    UPDATE: I just released a new DRUM LESSON PACK! -> bit.ly/CobusLessons. 5 lessons, 90 minutes, for 27 bucks. It will make you better at tuning drums, mixing drums, I'll show you my practice routine, my worst habits as a self-taught drummer, and teach you one of my favourite linear licks. Thanks for being here!

    2:34 I love how when he enters the soul of the bridge, he just raises his stick up in the air in sequence with the lyrics saying "feeling now", and I can instantly understand that feeling from the look on his face and the shear passion you can see that prodces such extraordinary drumming!
    I swear Cobus! I love you man!

    I KNEW YOU HAD IT IN YOU MAN :D
    Once again, I stand in awe of your skills. I have been drumming with a doublebass-pedal longer than you have, but still cannot compare to this. Simply amazing. I have been waiting for the moment where you would do metal, and you did not dissappoint. I take my hat off, simply amazing. You're my number one inspiration and idol, not only because of your incredible skills, but also your ability to do all kinds of genres, which you have proven with this. Stunning.

I find myself driving down the road playing my "air drums" and I have noticed that my style is starting to look a bit like the GREAT Cobus. Keep up the AWESOME work and please keep that smile on your face, its nice to see. Thank you Cobus!

    @JToroPaz 13 років тому

    I know what you mean by getting up to standard before playing heavier stuff, (I dont have any means of recording properly yet by the way, hopefully one day soon I can get videos up here though). I have an 8 piece kit that I shrunk down to a 5 to try to get back to basics, and I don't regret it one bit my playing has improved ten fold.
    So yeah, don't ever stop playing Cobus, you're an inspiration to many!

  • @kretzul

    @TheDrummeistr 14 років тому

    Wow, great job. I have to admit, I was a bit worried when you posted two pop song covers in a row but this was fantastic (As were the aforementioned videos). Way to change it up. Demon Hunter is one of my favorite bands and this is probably one of my favorites off this album. Great job on all the double bass stuff, that can be tricky. Keep up the great work Cobus! :)
