As a drummer, I respect the hell out of this stuff. It's like a hybrid of music and martial arts.

[@wernervon5508]

Blastbeats should be introduced at the next Olympic Games

[@chiefbrownfart]

Bro, Archspire and Fleshgod Apocalypse drum parts are made, for masochists, by masochists! 🤣

[@gaspar-animal-ribeiro5414]

Check Benighted and Aborted. There are a few bands out there that are pure nihilism

[@adolfotapias9397]

Brutal not for weaks😅😅😅

[@failuretolaunchdrums]

Eugene in FA is a dream come true

[@ssaamil]

Check out Necrosy too!!

[@ChadKingOfficial]

sadomasochism \m/

[@Calibur43]

TBDM - Nocturnal is one of the most highly creative drum spectacles to this day in melodic death metal. Not over-played, not excessive for each track, literally as close to perfection as you can get. I have spent hours upon hours drumming along to that album.

[@Unknownusername1004]

I think deflorate was better creativity wise but I’m also a Shannon Lucas fanboy considering he’s the reason I got into melodic death metal drumming

[@Calibur43]

​@@Unknownusername1004 Yeah, Deflorate was more "oddball" especially his footwork, but Nocturnal in the classic sense was just pure relentless and great writing. You can actually hear on the album that drums were still "human" and not programmed in any sense too, listen to the chorus in Deathmask Divine again. He really has to power through those fast runs and you can hear the struggle. It's a shame today how many bands just use Superior Drummer 3.

[@edersonoliveira40]

Se tu toca este álbum , parabéns! Está playing drums muito...

[@sainsburmcmanus]

Alan Cassidy is an incredible drummer, but the Shannon era TBDM will always be my fave.

[@diabeticmonkey]

Most definitely. Shannon is a beast

[@NateSmith87]

Yeah buddy!

[@x8jason8x]

Agree, the older BDM just hits different.

[@TunnelJumper]

I love that he wore driftcats. Best drumming shoes I’ve ever tried!

[@nekk-ra7080]

Serious physical and artistic talent on display. These mad lads are sick in the best way possible!

[@thewombat7047]

Come on anything by lord Marco should be on this list easily

[@brianbumstead2682]

Brain drill especially

[@Suicynic]

I miss Shannon Lucas. He was fucking awesome in TBDM.

[@Abhor_Dante]

Where's Mike Smith from Suffocation?

[@mcrichton46]

"Winds of Horus" by Nile has one of the most underrated blasts in metal, the blasts with cymbal chokes are insane

[@lefthandcrust]

Thats right!

[@ericlapointe666]

66samus kicks ass!! I love that guy fucking amazing drummer and really funny guy!! Youre the one who made me decide to start learning drums at 51. Been a Metalhead for 40yrs, now that i have more time on my hand ,its fun learning and watching your vids is always a blast 🤘🤘🥁

Don’t forget that he was also in Decrepit Birth!

god i just can never get enough of blasts with dotted crashes... rips so hard

I miss seeing Shannon lucas play in wicked death metal. Such a rad drummer!

I loved the Superior Drums video there with the kid in the beanie.

I love all the drummer on this list, but 66samus holds a special place in my heart

[@ShawnJonesHellion]

I'm sure the media is not controlled in anyways by people who look like him constantly forcing you to watch an vote for an litterally worship people who look like theriselves.

Another fleshgod song thats slap is fury Drums are killer AF

[@IloveChrome846]

Wicked talent from these dudes. Whole video slaps!

[@deletado12]

Thanks for the video.

[@Bretinator]

Nile?

[@deefman123]

that involuntary doppelganger drum line reminds me of marching beat snare work in the military. i actually prefer this double snare technique to the single roll blast beats, more intense and harder to pull off those perfect subdivisions between bounces. very easy to make double handed snare sound off

[@toddlawrance4045]

I kinda thought that drummer may have had some marching band experience going by the sticking patterns and the precision, looks like a challenge! Spun me out to see that.

[@deathmetaldave]

Called gravity blast bounce off rim hard to do correctly

[@x8jason8x]

@@deathmetaldave I've got mine up to about 260-280... after only a decade or so of practice. 😅

[@mallberry41]

Be good to include Mr Blastbeat himself- Mick Harris

[@atlante4368]

Samus's classic blastbeat is by far the best.

[@smallfaucet]

And those were his 'young' days......he's just as brutal today \m/

[@briancompton2079]

His stick height is insane.

[@PrimordialKrishna]

What was your favorite video?

[@peve4492]

wild samus has been spotted

[@DustinPlatt]

As soon as I saw The Violation by Fleshgod Apocalypse being first, I knew the video would be good. Edit: AND Black Dahlia?! Sheeet AND ARCHAPIRE?! And... you just knew the gravity blast from Cu*t Crusher would be on here. 10/10 Would rewatch for the 16th time.

66samus's drums sounds unholy! Absolute kickass

Yeah pretty easy when you rip the drum track off the album and have a little bit of skill to mime the playing

[@Graddg]

​@@jlo7770what

[@UnholeyCHeese]

@@jlo7770it‘s funny that you say this under a video that also features Infant Annihilator, which have no real drums whatsoever and could be called „miming“ in every right. Shows how little of a clue you have

WTF, that bonus!!!

[@acupofcoffee693]

YES MORE UNNEEDED INFORMATION ON SCREEN I LOVE IT

[@josefarias9700]

One song that definitely should be on this list is Belphegor's "Totentanz - Dance Macabre". David Diepold plays it like a god!

[@vernblack5200]

Feels good doesn’t IT!!!!!

[@patryk-.1741]

I really like a blastbeat from At the Gates of Understanding by Azarath, appearing first around 16th second of the song. It sounds incredible. Inferno is a beast behind the kit.

[@UndeadBed]

"In Extremis" is my favorite album from Azarath, many great blastedbeats and drumming in general. The album even starts with a badass blastmeat

[@Hellidixic]

Can't even see the stick when Involuntary Doppelganger drummer play that f'ing sh**

I will NEVER understand how these drummers are able to play such insane parts consistently like that.

[@bankal1442]

work, dedication, and more work

[@hotbeans9101]

Tbh, a lot of sampling and triggers make it seem like we’re hitting the drums with mjölnir, the first albums of Suffocation and Origin are more realistic, but there are also drummers like Eloy Casagrande from Sepultura who hit like a train but still manage to hit 220 bpm fairly easy

Different styles that intersect pretty commonly nowadays. Look at Blake Richardson from BTBAM.

What is a blastbeat and what does it mean to slap?

[@x8jason8x]

Blast beat: rapid repeated single shot snare notation, usually in excess of 180 bpm. To slap: In this instance, awesome, great, badass. I.E. "These tacos fuckin slap!" or "Man, this weed really slaps...".

[@ocirenauj2773]

Where's MELANCHOLY by SHADOW OF INTENT?

[@jeffreydean5112]

It’s crazy how easy people forget Alexgrind from despised icon. He can outplay all these bands and he paved the way for this music in the mainstream deathcore. Don’t forget the legend.

[@x8jason8x]

You're crazy if you think he can outplay Aaron from Infant Annihilator. Kid's easily one of the fastest and best in the world. Also, he paved the way for nothing, extreme metal drumming as a whole was pioneered by the thrash guys of the 80's, and refined by Gene Hoglan more than anyone. It's okay to have favorites but don't make baseless claims, almost all of these drummers are on an insane genius level. Even bro from Archspire with the lolRemo heads.

[@bengreenbank]

@@x8jason8xdon’t be a moron. Infant Annihilator drums are 100% programmed. He isn’t playing anything
