If you actually play drums and listen to bands like this then you truly understand how utterly mind blowing this is. To get THAT close to their album sound is just incredible.
You gotta remember how much of an abnormal perfectionist Muhammed is. I've discussed this ad nauseum both in person and online but I'll never give up on repeating it any chance I get: I think he's aiming for the 20th and 25th year anniversary of "Epitaph" (2004) and "Onset of Putrefaction" (1999), and my prediction is next year we will see: 1. A re-release those albums, probably remastered and with a collector's edition vinyl/shirt/etc 2. The new album... 3. And (HOPEFULLY🤞🏾) they'll announce a new tour to promote all of the above I'm done with this band if 2025 hits and still nothing tho lmao 😢
@@francoisSwine Nice question marks. How did you know I collected them? I'll add some just to put on display. ??????????????????????????????????????????
Romain has probably the best drumming technique i have ever seen. His control over his limbs is fucking insane. He is almost effortlessly effecient in his execution, tighter than nuns bun and more importantly an interesting, smart and creative drummer when playing metal. very rare nowadays (i think anyway).
I think this guy is god damn techincal, but from all extreme metal drummers for the last 20 years I still prefer Sean Reinert. His work on Death's Human is unbelievably good. Gene Hoglan is the second. But I like this kind of "drum machine" drumming, it's pretty burtal and fits this type of mathematically constructed riffs very well.
Romain is ridiculous. I really dislike how people discredit him because his ability is simply amazing. I graduated with a bachelors in music education with my major being percussion and this guys hand technique is just so smooth and relaxed it blows my mind. Keep up the good work!
His strokes are nice and high. Unusual for DM drummers. Even though he plays with super thin sticks, he's still got alot of natural volume and attack. I like it.
He sat at the edge of the stage in Dallas Texas the year this was filmed and just talked with/encouraged me about how to become a better metal drummer and the discipline it requires and some excercises I could do daily. He's a real deal mode of goodness type of guy. Not to mention a legendary talent in many forms of drumming🤙🙏
Got to see this beast with Necrophagist on their last tour (I think), absolutely in a league of their own and Romains performance looked effortless and flawless.
It's selfish, but I really would like you guys to show up together somewhere with a new CD... soon. I'm tired of waiting :) I can only watch this so many times. UA-cam will only allow me to like this once.
The fact that people still (over)obsess about Necrophagist even 20 years after 'Onset...' and beg for more just goes to show their music is pretty timeless, just like all great DM albums. I saw them live in 2006 with Bolt Thrower and was hypnotized by their musicianship and ferocity. The band members then were also chill af and friendly. I wish them all the best at what they do. Romain has done some crazy good drum work. He's a beast 🤘😎🤘
This is SUCH a good example of drumming technique. He isn't flailing all over. He hardly looks like he's breaking a sweat. Also, hiis wrists move like kick pedals (in that they pivot so freely). Precision and control are obviously natural for this guy.
Perfect stuff. What I like most,is the fact that Romain's blast's on snare drum are equal in power as his skank beat or any other beat. You can actualy hear it. Really,a lot of practice behind this video. Just look how high his stick goes when he is playing a blast beat. Impressive as Hell!

10 years now, miss them so much

I would exchange the 5 latest Dream Theater albums for just the one Necrophagist album that never was released without a problem.
I think even dream theater fans would agree and I am one

Those people from the future...
june 17, 2026 - can confirm, been there.
Will you come to my birthday party in 2026? It's on a Monday
Romain seems surprised by every stroke. It's like he's thinking: "Wow, I had no idea I could do that", or "Hey, look, another cymbal!"
???

Drumming be like that sometimes
He looks completely relaxed to me
@@lingonberriesofwrath1836 impressive question marks. Did you bring them from Valhalla?
2023 and still nothing comes close to Necrophagist. I miss you, thanks for everything.
Bro 15 years ago.. and nothings come even remotely close to Goulon’s style and prowess
Still holds up in 2020

In no way dissing this guy, but you should check out George Kollias
Triple
George Kollias is a great drummer, for me though Romain has the vote.
Triple Thomas Haake??

Between Romain and Matt Gartska for me.

As far as I know he used to be a jazz drummer, that's why he is different.
Alan Kapołka
Jazz guys are always super rad when they go metal.
That's cause jazz is the OG Devil's music!!!!
This guys technique looks incredible. So smooth and brilliant to watch.
You should start a band called "Lamp of the Desert". Seems to fit with your name :D
Those were the days. Romain blasting and playing with bands like disavowed and necro. Wonderful

Musically genius. I understand everything that is going on, but the way it is pieced together is a technical masterpiece.
romain is one of the most underrated drummers out there
This is played so confidently it's amazing.
Love it.
Chris May lol
2024 and still missing this stuff. So fast, so heavy but still so musical
Still miss this band man. They were so freaking good
I hereby certify this video as a classic.
I can play like him!!
Well, at least the part around 1:12....with a bit of practice... ;)
haha!! silly!!
Romain is a beast! He's wrists technique is out of this planet!
hi, october, 2019, I really miss Necrophagist
Forget the haters and bas comments.this guy is a machine..speed ..technique..everything for a good drummer
exactly.
10 years later we are waiting for another album...
This is good and all, but can he pull of Seven Nation Army?
I'm dying right now. great stuff
lmao
Bro i highly doubt it
Yeah, man. He's pretty good but not Meg White good, that takes decades
Seven nation army is hell of a song. So necrophagist start to play this album...........
god i love necrophagist's sound. its so heavy yet clear and crisp. sends shivers down my spine
Got to see this beast with Necrophagist on their last tour (I think), absolutely in a league of their own and Romains performance looked effortless and flawless.
Stillborn One is such a ridiculous song. Every instrument is so damn technical.
Then look up "One-man Necrophagist cover" by 66Samus if you haven't seen it already. He plays that song by himself. XD
empire Fr
Advanced corpse tumor 'dude
probably has the best solo in the world
Watch my stillborn one solo cover.
Hi, I'm from Winter 2022. I'm Time Traveller who's fckin love with Necrophagist, I'm here from 14 Years Ago 🤘
guitars are just background for drums
+Julien Paradis His profile picture is Abe...
As a guitarist, I can agree with this
Drums are just fun metronomes for guitars
Yea, but this is necrophagist we're listening to here
Abe❤️
Still coming back here since 2009
I probably watch this at least once a month, it's just so fun to see the epicness in action.
14 years, are you kidding me. I'm old.
this drumming is out of this world👀👀
...and Hannes Grossmann drums Metal even better than Marco Minnemann.

THE SUPER Drumming
He makes it look so easy....😲
This guy is really incredible playing!!!
how can you not like this video. one of my favorite drummers of all time.

@NecrophagistOfficial What happened to you guys? Why haven't i seen an album out from you guys in a long time?
gives me crippling depression when they disappeared
It's amazing how much travel his sticks get during his blast beats. I also love the double bass work in this song.
This video will part of metal historical archives.
to me it would be awesome if sucimez and kollias did some music and goulon and sanders did some; im just sayin they're all great
fuck yea
Ed Masterson kollias sucks
eurologic you’re just jealous that he can play extremely fast and accurate and you can’t🤷♂️
please make new album :/
+Floremar Jeff Espanueva Yes please do!
Well they did create that one song but it's not been released as a single and there's no good quality audio version of it anywhere...
But can he play For Whom The Bell Tolls?
Dr. Hylian It's not a bad drum track, y'know
Yes he can, 4 minute to be 30 secon
what is for whom the bell tolls for him? your crazy man lol
as a guitarist i always pay attention to necrophagist's guitarwork, but watching this vid i realized the drumming is also really cool!

this guy is fucking insane
Please come back to us ),:
With that left hand finger technique, he's going to make his girlfriend a happy lady!
Cleanest most technical cover (or drumming in general) I've ever seen.
That left hand stick height is amazing
I dont think they understand what would happen if they all of the sudden came back and started playing again
Stabwound. -who wrote the bass-line.
koldslaw Christian Muenzner did.
There are two options after watching this: you either give up on your drums or work even harder.
amazing!
AWESOME
It's amazing how he literally uses every piece in the set on a near-constant basis.

Where the fuck are you guys?
How do people not listen to death metal , seriously.
Yeah that's nice, but can you play a Lars Ulrich drum solo?
I love how far back he plays. Fuckin baller.
Still can't believe it, so thankful for this.
i can do that! hold my beer
Definitely amazing. His blast beats on that snare are so damn consistent for those speeds.
There will never be a better tech death metal band than Necrophagist
Still badass as ever.
A very sick drummer indeed. They're awesome live!
what a twin pedal i whish video shows it too and his left hand works like a motor
Wow I wrote this 10 years and I still amazed by this video.
There is nothing more satisfying than watching drummers blast with their fingers.
necrophagist's musicians are insanely talented !!
Perfect stuff. What I like most,is the fact that Romain's blast's on snare drum are equal in power as his skank beat or any other beat. You can actualy hear it. Really,a lot of practice behind this video. Just look how high his stick goes when he is playing a blast beat. Impressive as Hell!
He makes it look so easy!!!! LEGEND!
FARK!!! Love Necrophagist's stuff! Romain is a machine!
How to unsee this.
I've seen many guys wearing necrophagist T-shirts recently. I'm quite impressed dat this band inspires so many metalheads.
really nice drumming bro i appreciate listening and watching very much :DDD
what a badass!!! i am diggin the kit.
