Actually not really, once you get the technique down its pretty easy. Looks difficult but higher tempos are actually easier than say mid tempos where you have to use a lot of leg motion or very high tempos where you are doing something radical.
@@molochz I think you misunderstand, I'm not saying the song was easy or that Samus is not as talented as he is, just that the technique is not as hard as you would think to learn and play the extended double bass.
i love the way you mix triggers with the sound of the mics makes it sound big and deep but also dinamic not just that awful trigger only sound! great drumming and mastering!
my god samus these new camera angles and sounds are godly... was praying you one day hit the 100k+ views and stuff so that your production would take off but this is excellent!
Fucking AMAZING, not only is this my favourite Emperor song but its also the reason my neighbors think I'm spastic cause they've seen me air drumming to this numerous times XD
Three requests from some of my all time second wave faves: DISSECTION 'Unhallowed' / KEEP OF KALESSIN - Reclaim EP - 'IX' / SOLEFALD 'Jernlov'... this last one for speed and atmosphere, you will love it...
I'd love to see you play that song again today... Wondering if Trym is just the best clock on his turf or if your current accuracy fills the tiny gap still there
Do a cover of Ye Entrancemperium. It seems like it could be one of the hardest Emperor songs to play and it'd be cool to see you do it (not to mention it's my favorite Emperor song :D)
Dude that rocked. Literally better than sex. Seemed as tight if not tighter than brother trym playing the song. Way to go dude. So glad I found your channel
Yeah, but you have to remember, that Samus ansewered to the version from album. Check the live track from Wacken 2006, it's insane. But still this cover is sick as f**k!!! By the way @66Samus is there any possibility to make drum cam from any Mayhem recordings (by Hellhammer)?? Some kind of "Crystalized Pain of Deconstruction" or maybe "Chimera" which no one did on YT. Arcturus or Winds (both jazzy drumming) also will be wondered.
Ok how about something from Arcturus? Anything from Aspera album! But since were talking emperor and IX Equilibrium, SAMUS! PLEASE COVER OF BLINDNESS AND SEQUENT SEERS MY DUDE!!!! That song is my soundtrack!!! The intro, the progression, the ending.... omg... I love emperor! Ihsahns voice an elegy of icaros is.... my everything !!!
can you do strawberry fields forever... or i am the walrus.... but with extreme metal drumming lol...i used to play in a metal band back in the 90s i played guitar, bass, drums all in different bands. i would love to jam out with this dude. would be so fun. Seems like he can probably figure out 100 ways to play to a riff within 5 minutes... he's just one of those guys. i'm a bit like that too myself. but i don't have the precision this guy has. his speed and precision is super tight... u rock samus
I have a few requests as a fellow metal drummer. Could you possibly do a cover of either Emperor - "The Loss and Curse of Reverence" or maybe a Gorgoroth cover? I'm thinking for the latter either the song "Om Kristen Blod ov Jodisk Tru", "Gorgoroth", or possibly the song "Wound Upon Wound." That would be awesome!
Hahahah how the fuck do you maintain such insane stamina in your legs... lol it really is incredible great job man. I'm not a drummer, and I understand that practice and stuff builds up those muscles and all that, but it's still mind boggling
I love how he keeps the double kick going through the fills. Really adds some umph.
@peteM3rlin You don't know how bass drum double strokes look like, do you?
@@Fiskaal epic answer hahah
Trym's a legend.
you don't see many Emperor covers at all anywhere, for a reason. you sir, smashed it. awesome!
THANK YOU!!!!! The greatest black metal band of all time and one of the greatest metal bands in history! Long live the Emperor!!
Trym was an incredible drummer. That constant double-kick barrage requires a lot of stamina and precision.
Actually not really, once you get the technique down its pretty easy. Looks difficult but higher tempos are actually easier than say mid tempos where you have to use a lot of leg motion or very high tempos where you are doing something radical.
Trym IS a great drummer. He is still alive and playing.
@@Nefville Is the double bass at 2:51 done with diddles on both bass drums?? Or is he just playing it half speed and the sound is from the record?
@@molochz I think you misunderstand, I'm not saying the song was easy or that Samus is not as talented as he is, just that the technique is not as hard as you would think to learn and play the extended double bass.
@peteM3rlin hes playing doubles on the feet for those parts..... Me 1, you 0.
Awesome drum cover! Don't listen to a lot of Black Metal anymore, but Emperor will always be one of my favorite bands.
9/10 times I prefer watching the original drummer perform the song but Samus is so good sometimes I prefer his versions. "You win. Perfect"
Since you went this road: Ye Entrancempmerium please. Would make everybodys day.
Agreed. Ye Entrancempmerium!
Ye Entrancemperium please!
Nah man, With Strength I burn, tis far more epic!
anything from anthems would be great . ive loved black metal for over 20 years and imo anthems is the crown jewel of black metal
Nemesis Divina up there also
Always love ur videos man! I actually bought a Zildjian A custom Crash, from Trym from Emperor. He lives in the town next to mine!!
i love the way you mix triggers with the sound of the mics makes it sound big and deep but also dinamic not just that awful trigger only sound! great drumming and mastering!
my god samus these new camera angles and sounds are godly... was praying you one day hit the 100k+ views and stuff so that your production would take off but this is excellent!
Yes!!!! Been on an Emperor binge this past week. So your video couldnt have come at a better time. Perfection as always
Fucking AMAZING, not only is this my favourite Emperor song but its also the reason my neighbors think I'm spastic cause they've seen me air drumming to this numerous times XD
You've done justice to the song and to trym specifically ... thank you man.
Having splashes placed there in between toms makes so much sense.
Fucking excellent
I swear Trym makes up his fills... there's just random snare hits all over the place and its driven me up the wall for years!
It sounds cool
Three requests from some of my all time second wave faves: DISSECTION 'Unhallowed' / KEEP OF KALESSIN - Reclaim EP - 'IX' / SOLEFALD 'Jernlov'... this last one for speed and atmosphere, you will love it...
Samus you are one of the greatests drummers on the face of this planet, Legend in my book 🤘
awesome that you covered an emperor song. nothing has ever blown my mind like the first time I heard anthems album
Emperor, probably the best black metal band. And awesome cover btw.
Inquisition would like words with you
mitchell2719 Yeah Inquisition is great too, but I like Emperor better.
Immortal, Darkthrone
I think they are a little overrated... still good though, i would just rather listen to immortal or darkthrone
Fuck yeah!!!
I don't know how I never saw this. I'm glad I found it though. This is my favorite cover you've done. I freaking love me some Emperor.
I'd love to see you play that song again today... Wondering if Trym is just the best clock on his turf or if your current accuracy fills the tiny gap still there
plzz cover Dissection’s Night’s Blood or Retribution/Storm of The Light’s Bane or Thorns of Crimson Death
Trym can at times have weird quirks and timing. You totally nailed it for sure! Well done.
Trym's quirks make his playing so amazing. He's not a machine, he plays with groove and feel. Who wants to listen to a drum machine?
Many of his recordings are without click tracks. I love that.
Finally! A proper Emperor cover! Well done
Ihsahn: how long can you hold the double kick and blast best?
Trym: yes
Those toms sound stellar.
Brilliant played. Drum tone is crystal clear
so damn clean! Amazing cover, congrats. Trym's parts are so unique, aren't they?!
One of the best drummers of all time...
A Master is a Master !!! Samus the Master !!! I really enjoy your funny vids too btw, All the best to you
You simply forgot to film the coolest thing about this song, the drum kick foot work duh
Curse you all Samus \m/. Respect! Emperor ain't easy to remember, count and play.
SICK playing, and sound too!
Your amazing drums sound literally makes me want to cry. So beautiful
That kit you have sounds glorious.
Awe inspiring. One of my favorite tunes too
These drums sounds FUCKING AWESOME!
Badass cover. What a fucking perfect song.
I expect nothing less from you duder. Rad! Still waiting for 1349- Celestial Deconstruction though :D
I'd rather see Atomic Chapel, I want to see if he can play it like Frost does live.
It's time to see how can Samus play celestial descontruction from 1349 after we saw how it's played by nills fjerstorm.
Flawless! Awesome heel toe technique! Congrats man!
Emperor was basically next level Merciful Fate, and that's why i love them so much.
Aaaaaargh this just really gets my blood pumping! Ace.
More Emperor Please!!!
Awesome man !!! Thanks a lot for this video; a masterpiece 🙂🤝👏
Sick Dude!
One of my faves, awesome playing!
I was 19 when this came out. So many memories of me getting drunk by myself.
Do a cover of Ye Entrancemperium. It seems like it could be one of the hardest Emperor songs to play and it'd be cool to see you do it (not to mention it's my favorite Emperor song :D)
My favorite Emperor song, thanks for doing the cover.
Total badassery!! One of my favorite tracks from "IX Equilibrium" (along with 'Nonus Aequilibrium')...
you sir are a beast
Badass cover Samus.
Great drum cover my guy
HAIL EMPEROR
My favorite Black Metal drum part ever. SICK
Dude that rocked. Literally better than sex. Seemed as tight if not tighter than brother trym playing the song. Way to go dude. So glad I found your channel
wow, thank you very much, my friend!!
Yeah, but you have to remember, that Samus ansewered to the version from album. Check the live track from Wacken 2006, it's insane. But still this cover is sick as f**k!!!

Thanks again 👍😘🇸🇪
Wow man, great cover! And extra points for ambidexterity.
Wow. Just wow! You, my good sir, are just amazing.
George kollias called, he wants his kit back! Very nice man, cheers.
he wants his kit back ??? are you serious ? he hates triggers and this dude has triggerred every tom
Supreme band of Black Metal with a best instrumental ever.
Thunderous and glorius!!! Great job!!!
Speechless... Great cover !
love this album
Awesome cover
heavy metal 🖤 🤘
Yet again another flawless play through. Bro you should so do Uprising by Sabaton or midway
or nothing from Sabaton :)
While I love Sabaton, they don't have very interesting drums haha.
Larnell Lewis: "...ok, I'm hearing some blast beats...crash...mmhm... ride...crash...ok, I think I'm ready to try this..."
That was sick, I guess I need to pick this album up.
Perfecta ejecución
Muy bueno
How about Lateralus by Tool?
It would be a great test of your skills.
And it's a really good song
true, that would be very nice to see
Alexander Jasko or forty six & 2 please god do that song. Or just anything tool in general
It's more than he can play! :)
Congratulations! magnificent 👏👏👏🤘
spent years waiting for a real drums video with this song, would be great too "the loss and curse of reverance"
Tremendooooo muy pero muy bueno eh visto muchos bateros pero esta interpretacion es perfecta!!!
The almighty Emperor \m/
Awesome vid
another great video man! You should upload some Dark Funeral sometime
HA! There is a reason there are so few Dark Funeral drum covers...
FUCK
YES
(how did I miss this?!)
Holy shit! That was amazing!
Dude you fucking slayed it!
Realmente impresionante el cover
Ok how about something from Arcturus? Anything from Aspera album! But since were talking emperor and IX Equilibrium, SAMUS! PLEASE COVER OF BLINDNESS AND SEQUENT SEERS MY DUDE!!!! That song is my soundtrack!!! The intro, the progression, the ending.... omg... I love emperor! Ihsahns voice an elegy of icaros is.... my everything !!!
Absolutely perfect.

Best cover ever,cheers

Just listening to Trym is exhausting. I can't imagine trying to play this shit!
Extraordinary.

Axis + Trigger + Double Strokes = TRAP
Was searching for this comment lol
Brutally done!
Such a lovely song! ❤
Fodaaaaa!!! Demais!!! Excelente trabalho!!!
Do you do any other Emperor covers? That would be hella rad man.
Samus, I'd love to see you cover something (anything) by Vektor!
nice work
Impecable
Ebbeh, con gli Emperor mi tocchi il cuore...
peccato solo non sia una canzone dei due album capolavori della vita
U nailed it!Just great!
Hahahah how the fuck do you maintain such insane stamina in your legs... lol it really is incredible great job man.
