CANNIBAL CORPSE Drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz interview on 30 years of 'Eaten Back to Life' | BangerTV

[@superunknown2812]

I recommend anyone too watch centuries of torment the full history of cannibal corpse from the beginning of the barnes era right up till corspegrinder joined,fully goes in detail of recording and touring of each album,watched it a few times great doc on cannibal corpse.

[@DeadByThousandCuts]

Yep, I got it on dvd 🤟

[@CrookedTooth616]

Watched it a few times as well. It’s pretty cool seeing how this band came to be. 🤘🏼

[@brettschacht4183]

Best music DVD EVER.

[@matejgligorevic2632]

Hell yes dude. Their story is super interesting. It’s crazy to think they played Mallorca 😂

[@sticksman7819]

It's an excellent DVD.👍🏻

[@shaynewest8757]

Nothing wiil keep you feeling younger than playing death metal in your 40s and 50s

[@peeledapples4176]

Paul is such a class act, always great to hear him talk about Cannibal, and music more generally.

[@Grimeyhoob]

Peeled Apples he is a great and humble guy. And he’s a vegan too. A lotta people would never buy that.

[@jacobdavis5518]

@@Grimeyhoob VEGAN?!

[@Grimeyhoob]

Jacob Davis yep - Paul is vegan man. So are a lotta members of Cattle decapitation. Lamb of god. Arch enemy. Dillinger escape plan.

[@josephcollins628]

He’s a great guy, I’m still trying to get him to be a Bruins fan instead of the Sabres

[@metal4life1970-forever]

That he is. Met him in 2016 after one of their shows. Super nice dude.

[@froggore52]

I've never clicked a link so fast in my life. I could listen to Paul talk about Cannibal Corpse all day.

[@wilfordgrimley4339]

Love when people have original comments

[@str8h81]

Seen Cannibal Corpse live 9 times and they never disappoint.

[@tommyt1971]

I saw them about that many times, all by summer 1991! Saw their first show when I was a Sr in high school, March 1989 -- first time I ever saw a mosh pit and I was too damn scared to wade into it! Also met Alex at college a few months later and we'd hang out with the other metalheads on campus.

[@piteksebastian6384]

7 times and the same ^^

[@Paolur]

The guys from CC are some of the nicest guys, whenever they have the chance to come out and chat after shows they do and they seem genuinely interested in talking with their fans. Mad respect!

[@sinisterspawn]

*Hung out with Alex and talked Bass & Music with em very cool dude*

[@TeamMontrealMetal]

Paul is such a great guy, I remember his father used to come to see him in Montreal or Toronto because he lives in Buffalo. His father passed away last year or so... :(

[@ritualdeathmetal]

Paul's dad is a legend! One of the coolest Dads of a metal musician in history

[@christiandemaria2125]

He passed away right after they played town ballroom in Buffalo, Paul hung out with me for a few minutes before having to go to the hospital to be with his father as he passed , very good dude.

[@exceptionalamerican7458]

One of my kids goes to school with his kid. I have had the awesome pleasure of hanging out with on a few occasions. He such a thoughtful & friendly person. Super down to earth & definitely doesn't think he's better than everyone else. Truly a good dude & I am lucky to know him.

[@nathanstrickland6508]

And I have been listening to them for all 30 of them.

[@julienmouton8400]

I met Paul, Alex, and Corpsegrinder at a CC show once, they talked to us for nearly 2 hours outside the venue after the show till like 1am, and answered all of our questions. Talk about a band that genuinely appreciates their fans and goes out of their way to make them feel welcomed and appreciated. Such down to earth guys. I will always have tons of respect for and be a fan of this band.

[@nickfoster9350]

I've always loved how humble Paul is. In his own respect, he's a metal legend, but he never lets it get to his head. Much respect to this man, and Cannibal Corpse.

[@brettwodon5896]

such a great genuine dude. And one of the best drummers ever. Love this band, can't wait for more music.

[@evertking1]

Slow down... Best drummer???? Lol He is the Phil Rudd(AC DC) of Death metal.

[@shreddiekrueger359]

Bobby Brown Paul has a unique style. He may not be some Uber technician but his grooves are killer and really gave cannibal an interesting layer in their style. Cannibal is a meat and potato’s band and Paul is a meat and potato’s drummer. I love his style personally but your right he is mediocre in terms of technique. Ultimately I don’t listen to music for technique, I listen for quality jams and Paul and the boys have provided that consistently.

[@tylerdees4169]

Hes amazing. Nicest guy also.

[@gomebome]

@@evertking1 obviously he's a simple drummer in the grand scheme of DM but he's got a pretty unique style and killer passion. it's not a pissing contest lol

[@AnthonyEGhazel]

@@gomebome Exactly! Plus he's a self-taught drummer, so there's definitely that

[@GreatBeardofWisdom]

Man, I can't remember what I did last week, and he's able to flawlessly relive things that happened 30 years ago. That's a demonstration of pure passion, to be able to recount minute details so well. He's not just a musician, but a real fan of his peers. Not an arrogant bone in his body, and I respect that so much.

[@metalheadmaynard2684]

i got to meet Paul about a year and a half ago right before the Pat incident. what a cool down to earth guy that when you meet ,you feel like you have known him forever

[@saltyfox7056]

I remember buying the Eaten Back to Life cassette when it was new. It's amazing to to think that it's been over 30 years ago.

[@MrRick693]

This guy is a self taught drummer that pretty much invented a style of drumming. Fucking awesome.

[@xnormanx5351]

after 30years they still kickin ass!!

[@Remmy0930]

Cannibal Corpse is still to this day one of if not the best live band I've ever seen. The place was packed to the gills and the performance was absolutely masterful. Their tone is what set them apart for me...just a massive sound with those Mesas.

[@tacoenvy]

Man Paul is SUCH a great dude, excellent interview!

[@pradiptogitokusumo616]

Man I've been a CC fan for years and I really like Paul! Glad you guys brought him to talk about CC here 'cause it's seems fun

[@thewal1ofsleep]

I'm not a huge death metal or Cannibal Corpse fan, but I respect the hell out of them; especially Paul. Incredibly humble, down to earth and engaging. Despite being in a really successful and influential band he still feels like a "blue collar", salt of the earth type guy. I think the time period where they came up and also their geographic location is a big part of it. Nothing but respect.

[@soulcollector_sr388]

The Bleeding is a masterpiece

[@panzerwaffen2873]

For sure

[@travisperakovic2877]

KILL is my personal favorite. Fuckin murder worship.

[@svtkilr]

@@travisperakovic2877 SPAWN OF THE WRETCHED IS a fav of mine! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 I been to 26 Cannibal shows in my 44 years of life but Pantera I've seen 34 times from SF to Florida and Slayer 19 shows Six Feet Under 17 shows damn i love me some metal! I've been blessed to see many great shows even was blessed to meet and greet Pantera at the cow palace in san Francisco during the Great southern trendkill tour. One of the best memories getting to meet Phil, Diamond D, Vinnie but Rex didn't hang out as long as they did? I can't wait for Exodus to come to the bay area 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@DizzyDez613]

Still my fav CC album.

[@Destroyer_13]

The Bleeding to Cannibal Corpse is what Symbolic is to Death

[@JSG-mw4qr]

Great interview, that interviewer deserves a raise!

[@Grimeyhoob]

Paul is such a humble and likeable dude. I’m not the biggest corpse fan but such a gentleman this guy. Met him at wacken - funnily enough he was having a few beers with Adam D from killswitch

[@p1warsteiner]

Been a fan since the early 90s. Opened a few local shows for them in the late 90s/early 2000s, and was fortunate enough for my band to be offered a supporting slot on the 1349/Skeletonwitch tour. 100% pro EVERY night. Very down to Earth people who love their fans immensely, and are very hospitable to their support acts. Sitting in the back lounge of the bus with Paul while he told stories of the old days of Cannibal will always be with me. Their professionalism, unwavering love for their fans, and sticking to their guns is a great blueprint for a successful band. Love these guys. Paul, Alex, and Rob especially. Legends for a reason. I'll tell my grandkids those tour stories one day.

[@dimk9667]

Paul is a living legend. He is an example to all young or older musicians that are afraid to touch the drums. You don't need to be Lombardo to play metal. You just need passion and love for the music.

[@MonchoEchiburu]

the guys from Cannibal are so awesome and so down to earth!!

[@NumberD2000]

I love hearing Paul talk Cannibal stuff, you can tell he loves what he does and he's proud of it. 🤙🤙

[@TheNathanMChannel]

Great interview! Funny how he thought Metallica was too extreme at the time. I felt the same way about Cannibal Corpse for little while. But I was totally enthralled by Altars of Madness and blasting that tape in the car with my friends was a great memory from high school. But that too was 'too edgy' for me lyrically, especially since my mom was on my case after finding my Obituary and Malevolent Creation tapes. I blacked out all the lyrics of the AOM cassette with a Sharpie out of fear of her finding it. Heh! Time gives you a different perspective on these things. But at the end of the day you can't beat a good string of chugs and cymbal mutes, it appeals to the caveman metalhead inside.

[@michaelkoury6091]

So many memories he brought up about Buffalo! My original hometown. We moved to Akron New York, Jack Lived down the street from me! We hung out many of times, I was younger and just starting to play guitar! One great memory was having all of Beyond Death pull up in a van and I went to House of Guitars in Rochester! I’ll always remember Alex walking through school with his Metallica Ride the Lightning patch on his jacket, these were some of the coolest guys! They’re all so humble.

[@TVMetalhead]

Paul and Alex are the two basic rolling wheels of the band. They are so nice persons to know and have a chat with. Paul is always so polite and chill. He's low profile and dedicated to his work. A model for all the musicians.

[@willb1156]

CC is my favorite band that i love to watch interviews, i mean, they seems very, very Nice, they love to talk about their beginnings, they're always happy or smiling

[@VinyLegends]

I've had the privilege and honor to meet paul on several occasions. Hes hands down one of the nicest individuals I've ever met. Can't wait to see them play again!

[@forgemastermetal]

This guy has always been so interesting to hear talk about things. Great interview!

[@thetrimreaper1019]

These guys were my fav band back in 1999. I saw them live at the PALLADIUN in Worcheseter, Mass. And i will tell you being 14 years old right at the front watching these guys that i looked up to was an amazing life changing experience. Ive grown outta death these days, but i still have the utmost respect for these guys and Deicide. Thanks for giving me an outlet at such an impressionable age while everyone else was getting into alcohol and drugs.

[@ami2evil]

Do you still shit the bed?

[@oldmate9969]

[@isansimpson2056]

Wish we had some news about Pat...truly hope he's doing well.

[@twikirobot6897]

"Tomb..." and "The Bleeding" are essential.

[@dylangreen7970]

Butchered at birth though ...

[@andrewrutherford2823]

The first 4 are their most unique they all have their own sound. I feel vile and everything after had the same sound but kept being evolved and those are good too but the first four are the unique

[@Punkrockneal]

Eaten Back to life is the album that got me deep into metal when I was 12 years old

[@DizzyDez613]

The best thing about Cannibal is that their newer albums are just as good as their older albums. There’s definitely been a change in style and sound over the years - as you’d expect in a band spanning 30+ years - but each album is just as enjoyable. From the classic Barnes era, to Kill, to Evisceration Plague, to Skeletal Domain. I love all those albums. You could say any of their albums are your favourite, and no one would argue with you, because they’d get that that particular album speaks to you, and is good enough to be someone’s favourite. And that can’t be said about many bands.

[@frozendilemma]

Alex is my favourite but Paul is right up there. Great guys.

[@farbercasteel]

Both are quite eloquent and sophisticated guys.

[@cmacdhon]

A humble, down to earth, awesome freaking dude.

[@tommyt1971]

Hey Bradley, megahorns for having Leprosy, Mental Funeral, Eternal Nightmare and especially Haunting the Chapel displayed on your stereo rack! (I've got a 1st pressing of Mental Funeral in green vinyl hanging on my wall at home!) \m/ \m/

[@SCUMCHRIST888]

I really hope they tour and do a EATEN BACK TO LIFE set. Best live band ever. Incredibly nice and humble guys. Anyone who disses CC can lick balls

[@sarcastic_redbeard6263]

My favourite cannibal corpse album.

[@wilfordgrimley4339]

Well theyre not that good

[@dutchdykefinger]

it's not my typical alley of metal, but yeah, they're super nice and respectful guys and awesome to listen to, so you can get fucked with a knife all the same if you diss them :P

[@paulmazurkiewicz3089]

Sounds like you are a loyal fan ...

[@tommyt1971]

I'd pay just to hear them play Put Them To Death! Whenever they played way back when, the rotation of the pit would speed up! Or if there wasn't a circle going, everyone would just go crazier!

[@marinatadic5015]

It's always a pleasure to hear Paul. Such a cool guy 😌

[@tpags7398]

This is the most happy I’ve been to see an interview. It’s not often someone from Buffalo gets a lot of attention

[@petepethesjr.8068]

One thing about cannibal that deserves to be mentioned is that youll never meet a more cool down to earth bunch of guys. They are and always will be so awesome to their fans and that goes a long way in my eyes. Ill always be a fan.

[@pearlguy6351]

I’ve never Paul speak he’s very well spoken very intelligent guy

[@footlongfabo]

What a humble guy. Would love to meet him some day. Seems like a lovely dude

[@deathmetaldownhiller7874]

I've been fortunate to meet them and drink with them, and if you do see them live, take the time to stick around after the show and visit with them. George is usually very open to chatting with fans, and super friendly. Awesome band and well worth your time bumming around to hopefully catch some conversation. Very friendly.

[@Bateman61405]

I enjoy a few CC songs but I wouldn’t say I’m a fan, but I thoroughly enjoy listening to their interviews/behind the scenes stuff and hearing them talk about their sound/evolution and how they wrote their records

[@Chuloloc]

Hails guys. Thanks for the interview. Really appreciated. Long Live Cannibal Corpse.

[@ignacioramos1320]

Good interview, wish it was longer. Paul is a great guy, cool to hear him talk about metal and Cannibal Corpse

[@NerdGasims]

Saw Cannibal Corpse a few years ago at a club in Philly and afterwards they hung out with the fans. Bunch of great guys. Chatted a bit with Alex and Paul both awesome guys but once George came and hung out with the fans talked with him about video games and comic books for 15 minutes great time

[@Jack-pp2ng]

Yeah they are great dudes I talked about bass with Alex for atleast 20 minutes

[@bishopgutierrez5772]

We need a interview with Paul & alex talking about the old school days

[@hellbach6268]

Very articulate guy with thoughtful and insightful answers to good and fresh questions. Another job well done Mr. Bradley. "The bleeding" was my introduction into Cannibal and one of the first death metal albums I ever heard starting my journey into extreme side of metal (I was into Metallica, GNR and Scorpions at the time).

I like what he said about Reign In Blood, the importance can't be overstated.

[@jamesw.968]

Are there much much heavier bands now and all the way back to the mid 90's - absolutely! of course - but were there any back then? -pre Reign in Blood? fuck no there weren't SLAYER showed the labels that the extreme deep end Metal acts COULD sell albums - they COULD sell out venues and COULD actually play their instruments. - they COULD maintain the intensity and hold themselves together to campaign on World Tours- Reign in Blood was the most important album in the history of Death Metal The music that immediately followed would have still been written and recorded and produced because nothing was going to stop that scene from exploding but it would have taken a lot longer - the suits still werent 100% SLAYER didnt just usher in Death Metal they kicked the fucking doors right off the hinges R.I.B. was the perfect album at the perfect time by the perfect band and the rest is history

[@jamesw.968]
