ARCHSPIRE | Involuntary Doppelganger @360bpm

[@WildySouza]

🔥 This is one of my favorite Archspire songs! Let me know if you want to see more like this. Don't forget to subscribe to support the channel!

[@ole--]

I've checked quite a few archspire auditions, so far i think this is one of the most accurate and technique display is great. Would love to see Golden Mouth of Ruin. Those gravity blasts are something applicants should demonstrate they can endure!

[@WildySouza]

@@ole-- Thanks for the recommendation and good words brother! 🤘🏻

[@Sartixxx]

Go more bro. I love playing tech death, listening. Archspire is my favorite band in this genre)

[@trailmagnus]

Very nice. Are you using triggers or not? Does not sound like it.

[@tuukkahalttunen2046]

Oh my goodness, for real, man. This was the most impressive stuff I've seen in quite some time, and I seek and see various drum videos daily and been a drummer for 30+ yrs. You have an amazing groove and musicality compared to ANY other drummer that I've seen play Archspire. That kit, sounds spot on, amazing raw mix. 5/5, diamond tier stuff, left me speechless. Subbed, definitely 🔥

[@whoshotya117]

Not only the playing but being bald definitely helps your chances.

[@WildySouza]

hahah Thanks man!!

[@yeahbuddy666]

And the gotee 😂

[@DinkyMax]

Just missing the septum piercing!!

[@carnalbrutality]

Now Jarod just needs to go bald and they will be the baldspire lol

[@creepycooter8370]

Spencer wasn't bald

[@aaabomb]

Truly an amazing job! I’ve been watching these all day.

[@jeffessenn]

Out of all the audition videos this guy probably has the best technique and fundamentals out of any other drummer. his arm switch-ups and hand technique are just... on another level. Finesse doesn't even begin to describe it.

[@pretzelsaregood57]

Passes the reynlord .25x natty check too.

[@Quake18]

paradis has some crazy sticking in his too. but wildy fucken ripped this one

[@mattvillarrubia3621]

This is easily the best Archspire drum cover so far

[@the6ig6adwolf]

I would agree with you if Kevin Paradis hadn't uploaded his submission 2 hours ago. No disrespect to this guy buy Kevin's is tops so far.

[@tuukkahalttunen2046]

​@@the6ig6adwolf I'd have to disagree. This guy Souza brings some extra nuances, groove and hits harder than anyone I've seen playing Archspire. Also, he looks extremely relaxed and does everything effortlessly 🔥 Being a Brazilian, this guy reminds me of Eloy Casagrande of extreme metal drumming.

[@hellfireatwar]

@@tuukkahalttunen2046 So true!!

[@roromoho]

​​@@the6ig6adwolfThis guy has more groove, more musicality and a better sounding kit than Kevin Paradis.

[@killrustoleyum5177]

King Kevin gets my nod, but how many people are showing their brilliance, loving them all.

[@psycold]

The 9 dislikes are from the 9 people who submitted their edited and sped up audition videos. I did not anticipate the insane drama that would come from Archspire's drummer retiring haha

[@PeX218]

Lord Marco… 😮

[@streched_thin]

why the hell would people even do that lol, if you get chosen you’d have to do it for real and everyone would see what a phony you are.

[@hellfireatwar]

​@@PeX218 Merlini as well 😂😂😂

[@jadedbreadncircus9159]

@@hellfireatwar he doesn't need this shit, he can just go play jazz. 🤣

[@Salz1usTox1cus]

How clean can you play this song? Souza: YES!

[@travismiller7679]

This is the first audition video I've seen that's given me hope for the future of this band.

[@REIDOPLANETA]

Man all these dudes showing up out of nowhere with insane skills. Kudos, what a playthrough. Raw audio for life. One of the best if not the best so far I've seen.

[@PaniqFoxx]

Definitely not raw audio, I see a trigger on the snare and the toms. Undoubtedly the bass drums are also triggered. The cymbals do just sound like overhead mics though.

[@tfwnoyandere]

@@PaniqFoxx you can edit playthroughs just fine without triggers genius

[@hughwattmate8467]

@@PaniqFoxx Congrats, you have absolutely no concept of what a trigger is

[@salbausone]

@@PaniqFoxx i think he just means its unquantized

[@PaniqFoxx]

@@hughwattmate8467 the Roland triggers on the rims of the toms and snare? To use for blending raw audio with sampling for a more consistent sound? I primarily use a hybrid kit, I know exactly what triggers are

[@Kanglar]

I was so disappointed when I heard Spencer was leaving the band, because I thought for sure no one could live up to his performances. You just proved me wrong!! I hope you get the gig!

[@peterplas]

Holy shit, this might be the cleanest Archspire drum cover I've ever seen. This is absolutely insane!

[@JohnnySideburnsX]

The audition of the century. The winner of the contest!

[@zhdrums3872]

So far this is one of The best and most Accurate covers of Involuntary Doppelganger done for the audition. Very Nice!

[@RigorMortisItrium]

Second that, so cleanly done.

[@thatlonzoguy]

performance and drum mix are on point, I was rooting for kevin paradis but now i think they should pick you

[@NTSTS0]

One of the only covers/auditions which manages to keep the incredibly powerful snare work throughout. Your quarter strokes are beastly.

[@NTSTS0]

also your fills are super clean, i hear a lot of people get really sloppy when doing the tom stuff but yours is incredibly nice

[@JavertNihil]

fuck yeah dude, the best sound drum of all auditions

[@lukefrantz4985]

This one is probably my favorite.

[@impetus_aus]

Same. Best of luck, Wildy!

[@picklesickle3252]

I don’t even have words man, this is incredible!!!!

[@WildySouza]

Thank you so much brother! It means a lot to hear that!! 🤘🏻

[@mrjehupitchfork]

This might be my fave audition yet. Edit: it is my fave.

[@cleatuslewinda]

My vote for this guy!

[@the6ig6adwolf]

That China on your right side sounds like thunder ripping across a dark and stormy night.

[@Blacklight_Music]

Looks like an 18” Wuhan china. Fantastic, cheap, and legendary at this point.

[@ShawnFerrell]

Out of all these drummers auditioning you not only are the tightest but you even made it your own in certain parts. You get my vote.

[@stickfigure9138]

Stumbled across this guys videos just now. Gyat Dayum!! This guy is wicked

[@ItsOkayToEatPlaydo]

Easily the best option

[@chaosinception7982]

Best version i have seen. Absolutely amazing! Great job!

[@RaphaRox]

up until now I believe this is my favorite followed close by Kevin Paradis and TSlayer

[@hellfireatwar]

for sure man

[@lausonmorgado980]

Caramba, um brazuka com essa habilidade disputando a vaga!!!! Boa sorte meu amigo!

[@boomershooterlegend]

Brasileiro?

[@WhiteNoiseStudio86]

cleanest video i've seen yet from all the auditions popping up on my feed!

[@intimidation0]

They reacted to your video! I’m confident they’re gonna pick you bro😮

[@DJT544]

By far the smoothiest cover

[@TheOnlyMisterBananas]

this is the best audition i have heard so far! sick!!!

[@morganneher8643]

It seems super hard to play all that with force behind it, well done. Playing the parts is crazy hard, playing them with power and accuracy is insane!!!!

[@tuukkahalttunen2046]

My thoughts exactly. And so effortlessly. This left me speechless, truly.

[@themusicofwerewolfbickensd8847]

This is by far best entry!!!

[@devinthegreig]

Probably the cleanest audition with the least amount of extra editing, it definitely feels unquantized but that’s why it’s so sick. Spencer isn’t the absolute robot people think they want, there is so much nuance in his playing, his human elements are what brings this band to life and think this dude can accurately emulate that

[@chromegnats]

Best audition so far imo

[@SeaW4rrior]

One of the only ones that makes it look "easy" I mean look at him stroll through this bloody song... Hope you get the gig dude 🤘

[@usernamesareforidiot]

Damn, the silver lining of Spencer leaving the band is now there's finally some drum play throughs of Archspire songs. This was sick man, nice work.

[@directedbyxanderjones8329]

Okay, this is the best one I've seen so far.

[@lastditch727]

I think this is the most legit, cleanest one I've seen yet. Kudos bruh.

[@Mysticalturkey]

Lady's and Gentlemen we've got him!

[@elonmusksellssnakeoil1744]

"Ladies and gentlemen...we got him."

[@kiefdemon1979]

I said "God damn wtf was that" the minute he starting playing.

[@thalloutboy]

One of the best renditions I’ve seen thus far, and I’ve seen quite a few. Bravo!

[@larzblast]

This is the guy. Right here. No more entrants, please.

[@K707OR30]

I think you’ve got it in the bag. Ridiculous speed, your accuracy and timing is impeccable, you know how and when to play the cymbals to accent the phrasing of the other instruments/vocals, and your conservation of motion and thus stamina is dialed in. Amazing work.

[@jonathanberg1434]

I love these auditions, so many talented drummers i have never seen before, it‘s just pure joy

[@mikemartell365]

Let’s fkn go!!! 🤘🏼🔥🔥🤘🏼amazing job.

[@WildySouza]

Thanks a lot my friend! I appreciate it!! 🤘🏻

[@MrVittnet]

The best so far... If i was a member of Archspire i would choose you

[@roferoz]

Dude, the job is yours. Absolutely insane how clean is the playing without losing the power stroke. Amazing!

[@drabbster]

Cleanest Archspire playthrough that I have seen in the last days. helps as well that the drums sound very good!

[@agentsmith413]

honestly this is probably the best one i've seen so far out of the auditions. You got my vote even though it doesn't mean anything lol

[@ardiberen]

Sure about that? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZqWp6ybqpKcopY

[@Virvum_Juggernaut]

Dude, you are light years ahead of the more famous YT drummers attempting ARCHSPIRE covers. Prewett 2.0 🤘🏻🥁🔥

[@ShrkBiT]

Awesome dude, of all the audition tapes I've seen so far, this one is my favorite. A very precise yet almost casual performance. Good looking technique and pleasant "phrasing".

[@tuukkahalttunen2046]

1:50 forward, that next fill after the first gravity blast... those cymbal accents are otherworldly 💎

[@antialgo1]

Espectacular

[@brunodelfiol4880]

O melhor que vi até agora! Archspire pode parar de procurar! Esse é o cara!

Subbed, definitely 🔥 edit: Ah... You're Brazilian? I must say, you might indeed be the Eloy Casagrande of faster types of metal. Listened to this few more times, and all the details, little extra nuances, I'd say... it's better than the original 💎 Eloy did the same to Slipknot songs.

[@ShaneClough]

Extremely clean, huge respect for raw audio

[@carguy6699]

Hope you get it man. You make the stuff almost look easy. You and John langstreth need to be the 2 candidates. Im hoping you get it!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@mogli360]

The next bald man in Archspire lol awesome drumming sir!

[@luukhoogland1431]

So fucking tight and clean. Amazing tone as well! Out of nowhere one of the best auditions drops. Probably my favorite now!

[@andrewzab1741]

Есть именно чувство музыки, а не механический отыгрыш. Есть эмоция в игре. Очень достойно.

[@WildySouza]

[@jojodiante8838]

[@Inshadows]

Shavo Odadjian for the win! Jokes aside, amazing artistry, man! It’s gonna be a close one for sure, but you should definitely be in the conversation. Best of lucks!

[@magdump_supreme420]

Absolutely the best play through I’ve ever seen of an archspire song. You’re better than Spencer lmfao

[@enikoghostsofgrace]

Awesome drumming and bald, i think we found him ladies and gentlemen!

[@lonnienorton.]

Auditioning is over folks they got thier new drummer!!!! Holy Hell!!!! Amazing work man. I too have seen a few guys trying out for this gig and I have to say your video is the cleanest and absolutely perfect constantly throughout the whole song. If they don't pick you, then they don't want the best for the job. No disrespect to the band, just saying they should seriously just call you now to join them. 💯🤘😁

[@sbartholomew-nb2zw]

definitely the first person i've seen using spencer's switch blast. i hope this is unedited and raw because it's fucking intensely badass. you are in that short list of human beings capable of playing archspire.

[@containsletteratoz]

Fuck this is clean... And it looks like he could do it 30 more times without missing a beat... We found him

[@R0binah00d]

Fantastic audition. I’d recommend do Golden Mouth of Ruin. It’s a fantastic display of stamina and accuracy. Either way this was great 👍

[@JoeProvolone]

Just an incredible room sound 🔥

I was thinking the same till just now. Kevin might not be the match personality wise, though. I don't know if he would match with the goofiness of the band.
