Haken - Messiah Complex - Virus | DRUM COVER by Mathias Biehl

[@sillylad7901]

I cannot express how long I've waited for this! This is fantastic!

[@ThatCheapDrummer]

Bloooooooooooooooo

[@REALwoombath]

Not more than a month I'm guessing, lol.

[@pedrovitor1242]

Exactly hahahahahaha

[@carlotingucci4391]

9:54 was ... unexpected 😂 Exceptional work man!!! 🙌🏻

[@uhuebner]

Unbelievable! I expected drum covers of fragments sooner or later but the whole madness of complexity in one piece is just mind blowing! It's like 17 minutes Dance of Eternity... I can't even image how time consuming it must have been to learn every ghost note from Rays book. And lets not forget Ray who came up with this. He clearly fulfilled his promise of better drumming with each album. To me hands down the best drummer of the past 5 years. Lets revisit in a year or so and see if you have a single dislike. Don't think so :)

[@caelmcleish1212]

It’s a shame that 2 months after this comment there’s 2 dislikes.

[@christopherburot1309]

OK this is insane, and the fact that Haken shared this cover on FB is even more awesome. You are so talented

[@mostafaalkady6556]

Is this the longest and most technical drum cover ever on youtube? It seems like it

[@REALwoombath]

Not even close, there are so many other medleys eg. Octavarius or 2112.

[@mostafaalkady6556]

@@REALwoombath if you mean Octavarium, then both are definitely not as technical as this one.

[@REALwoombath]

@@mostafaalkady6556 You asked for longest, technical not most technical though :v Of course this one's more complicated.

[@mostafaalkady6556]

@@REALwoombath Yeah I meant both of them together. Sorry I phrased it inaccurately :D

[@ytseyjam]

search for "between the buried and me full album drum cover")

[@zanekiefer5128]

This 17 minutes went by SO QUICK! Probably my favorite drum cover ever!

[@yeyeyeayeye9892]

Could be, definently.

[@DanteSalcedo]

That change between Marigold and The Sect is pure gold...

[@BenjaminElleboudt]

The marigold part in itself is amazing

[@mostafaalkady6556]

We have been waiting for so long man AND YOU FREAKIN NAILED ITTT OMG! HAKEN HAVE TO SEE THIS

[@Roestikrokette]

sooner or later they will!

[@yeyeyeayeye9892]

@@Roestikrokette Sooner, they will.

[@christophkl1295]

They did

[@walters147]

It’s one thing for Ray to write something this crazy but to then break it down and learn it. Goddamn I’m stunned

[@yeyeyeayeye9892]

16:56, that's how I felt the entire video. Absolutly amazing! The control of them limbs. Jeez.

[@Crawver]

I think the best complement I could give you is the fact that if I ever want to listen to messiah complex, I come to this video. I always loved the drums for it, wishing they were more prominent in the mixing, and you nailed it so damn well that this is basically just the mix I want. Fact is I've listened to this so many times I've picked out I think 3 mistakes from the original. Over a 17 minutes intensely complex and technical song. That's frankly an insane level of talent.

[@AAXplosion]

Thank you very much! Well there are more than 3 mistakes. 😂 Back then when I recorded that song I think I couldn't figure out that insane drum parts completely.

[@domidominik7071]

@@AAXplosion your version sounds awesome, thats what matters, but really would love if you‘d point out the mistakes, cause i didnt found them, mainly because i know your version better 😄

[@algorix8420]

This is insane, that s exactly what i m doing ahahahah

[@alessandrosacco3049]

I think I'm gonna watch this video every day for the rest of my life

[@Airguardian]

9:54, HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA! Brilliant! Love this theme, perfectly executed! ;)

[@p.zeller]

Das Album höre ich seit Veröffentlichung rauf und runter.

[@nuklearnasparoga3617]

Every time I try to listen just for a minute or two but I end up listening to the whole cover. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@raphaelpontoesanto]

Quem apertou nesse vídeo dislike foi porque eetrpu o botão, não é possível! Perfeito! Toca muito!

[@tomandrehansen8827]

Takes me back to when i found Haken through your cover of The Architect, great work as always dude!

[@isaiahmumaw]

Ray Hearne always seems to write the most complex overlapping parts possible. Incredible that you pulled it off so well!

[@evilasiobjr]

Great cover man, amazing to see 👏🏽 And I'm each day more convinced that Ray is a complete beast, drum machine, genius musician!! His lines and fills are just so perfectly orchestrated. Voracity, finesse and technic so well balanced and aligned, just a pleasure to watch and listen to ❤️🤘🏽

[@ZackAttack1798]

Bro. If Haken ever needs a drummer they don’t need to look further than your channel. 100% nailed it dude!

[@altaybayr]

Superb work! I personally find it very hard to get into Ray's detailed drumming but you totally nailed it, again

[@McBiks]

Absolutely mind fucking blowing Mathias. Brilliant job! Bravo!

[@lastweekslightning]

God damn dude. Thank you for showing people not only how to play properly, but how to record and mix drums well. I can't hear any drum replacements.

[@AAXplosion]

Thanks! 😁 I needed a few takes but you're right, there are no replacements.

[@burakunal2139]

I'M CRYING OF HAPPINESS NOOOWWW!!

[@jarekmarek4171]

Kurwa Mać, Człowieku,jesteś Hakenem ! Piękna robota!

[@Maurody]

Man!!! The set of emotions and excitement you made me feel. Wow!! Thank you for making this available to the world. Top top top quality.

[@IveGotAMatch]

Currently 0 dislikes and it truly deserves to stay that way - phenomenal job dude! Also this made me realise just how fucking weird and confusing the drums at the start of Glutton are haha!

[@SpeedyMckeezy]

THIS IS INSANE

[@PradyMj]

What a sound mix and an incredible playing. Sehr gut Mathias!

[@AceRazor]

Absolutely nailed it! Fantastic 10/10 job mate. That was fun to watch.🤘🏽

[@marceloprates5373]

I've been checking everyday since the teaser to see if the video dropped. This is legendary stuff, i love how concentrated you are in some of these parts xD

[@victormontielpiano]

Your face at the end was hilarious hahaha. Great job as always man!

[@julianpenz6967]

Einfach genial!!! Hab auf das Video echt gewartet... Bitte mehr davon, gerne auch nochmal POV wie bei Nil by Mouth. :D

[@octonik_]

Great job as always man! Love it! Now I need some Symphony X cover :D

[@lprulz9]

Dude I rarely login. But I had to do so to give you props. Marigold is tooooo sick. Well fucking done man

[@Beestification]

That is hands down the most fun I've ever had prepin dinner. I'm just air drumming through as much of it as I can while also chopping/mincing/slicing etc. Not the 1st time I watched it, but I put 'er on, started prepin and finished washing the last dish just as it ended. You're an amazing drummer, and covering this is proof enough.

[@MrSinanpala]

This is out of this world

[@tbalage85]

Wow, Congratulation! ☺️👍 Whats next? Maybe a glassy-eyed zombies? 😉

[@lieutenantkleeia]

Holy shit dude that was beyond perfect. Amazing sound and performance. Great job!!

[@hi22224]

I feel like the most challenging part is that groove at the beginning of part 2. Wild. Nice job man. Killed it

[@xedasxedas]

Amazing. Including the all mic positioning and mixing stuff.

[@Sneakypetevaporizers]

Unbelievable! Amazing work, wow!

[@joaogabrielzacarin7972]

Was für ein erstaunliches Video, Glückwunsch! Grüsse aus Brasilien!

[@Mauroayuda]

Mathias. I’m pretty sure you can play anything. You are top level. I would like to challenge you to cover the song Quantum factor by Virgil Donati. Besides, it would be a dream to see it performed perfect by a human. Oh… and there is no cover of that song available on KZbin. Thank you if you take the challenge and publish your cover. Hugs!

[@larscd2002]

This is f*cking top level, awesome!

[@fartvader84yearsago8]

HO LY FUCK ING SHIT!!!!!!!! Amazing cover dude, like really nailed it. Goddam.

[@the_vinson]

That foam around the snare mic to prevent the hi-hat bleed is genius!! F***ing brilliant mate!

[@AAXplosion]

Ah you mean my brand-new patented Muffle-Buffer 3000? 😁 Little recording trick.

[@patrickprotzman2407]

I am a huge Haken fan and I am so glad you have brought so much skill and energy to these covers. You do their music justice!

[@roshanganeshm826]

Super tight playing. Amazing 🤘🤘🙌

[@BidBadBod]

The drumming on this album is their best yet and you have nailed it! Excellent work my dude.

[@Dreamarcelo]

Omg man, I’m always here on your vids it’s been a few years, and when it comes to you I try not to find it impressive because... it’s you hahaha but damn. You’ve nailed the whole thing once again. Congrats! How long did it take you, after rehearsals, to record this? Cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷🕺🏻

[@AAXplosion]

I recorded it yesterday. Took me 3 hours. Rehearsal was way longer :D
