Dan Presland - Ne Obliviscaris - Tapestry Of The Starless Abstract

[@boozalm3715]

How this guy plays song after song in live sets is beyond me......This guy is an absolute fucking machine...

[@metalheathen9]

Speed, stamina, one footed blasts and CREATIVITY! 10/10

[@k.5308]

Shins of fucking steel.. single strokes all the way.. no mercy.. Dan presland for Pres..

[@progride2328]

I will never play drums but watching these videos is very addicting

[@FPDad15]

for all those who may say extreme drumming can't be musical and thoughtful and even tasteful...I really enjoyed this, even though not my first choice of genre to listen to, as a fellow drummer I was enthralled by his drumming, it is very layered, complex and fitting for the tune...Outstanding!!...I particularly enjoy the HH splash pattern that takes the song out at the end, a very "jazzy" touch to an extreme style tune.

[@Coolio1911]

Layered ? Ehhhh....... Jazzy? Ehhh no

[@Coolio1911]

Listen to death or even black flag

[@Coolio1911]

Like everything is sort of predictable it's more hard rock fill patterns and heavy blast beats with cymbal splash nothing insane

[@azathoth9206]

Just saw NeO live 2 days ago. Most impressive drummer I've seen to date. The guy is a machine!

[@AhmedMagdii]

really what a bass line - amazing

[@Ub3rSk1llz]

KZbin: "Cygnusbass" - he's the bassist of neo and he has some playthroughs too :D

[@DavidBordon]

7:01 ... I didn't see that coming.. That's pure genius :D

[@TehJaytius]

There's a black and white video of Derek Roddy doing it during the double bass run in Powers That Be from 2006. That was the first time I saw someone do it. It's an awesome idea.

[@BlackEmperor]

Guys, he is not swapping between hi hat and kick there, he is using his hand to choke the hi-hat to simulate the pedal so he can keep the kicks going. That's what David was referring to. And he's bloody well right, genius move.

[@TehJaytius]

Black Emperor That's what I was referring to in the old Derek Roddy video. I'm actually surprised more people don't do it. Still a great little technique.

[@burnthedead13]

***** The Infallible Emperor 1956 good song

[@BurnTheNuance]

Black Emperor Yup my thoughts exactly mate!

[@BlackEmperor]

3:42 hit the mic 4:14 blood 4:23 he doesn't even care

[@Maedelrosen]

+Black Emperor I dont think he didnt care, @ 4:21 he's tearing up

[@badoocee1967]

Most impressive form and a great performance....and that set looks clean!! Literally!

[@TheVermifuge]

HF man! First time hearing this dude and his band. Very impressive drumming you can hold your own bro. Nice organic sound to this band. Instant fan. \m/

[@mitocondriaibirite1771]

From brazil!! It is The very best chanel of drumming

[@tomflorczakjr.5353]

Absolutely brilliant. You might just be my current favorite drummer. In my 33 years alive I've listened to a TON of metal in every genre you can name from all around the world and I've heard maybe 3 guys who can match your skill level.

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

Jamie Saint Merat surpasses it and probably Proscriptor McGovern, Spencer Pewitt and Tomas Corn as well.

[@NoNationHero]

Man, after reaching certain level of skill there is no objective "worse" or "better", it's only a matter of their style and whether you like it more or less. Can't imagine any actual song this dude won't be able to play. Just like the others you listed above. And a hundreds of other descent musicians.

[@anewt72690]

Are they Jamie Saint Merat, George Kollias, and Blake Richardson?

[@Kain_R_Heinlein]

Андрей Казаков agreed, unfortunately I do feel there is a skill difference and not just stylistic one. Also skill difference will be more noticeable once you start comparing with Jazz, fusion drummers and the like

[@JayLock]

I listen to this song probably 3-4 times a day on average, visualization the play through of all the instruments each time while driving... to see finally see it (my bad for waiting to look it up) is incredible. Btw this raw version of the backing tracking is interesting!!

[@ghille121]

Great band, and Dan is an amazing drummer. Their newest album is my album of the year.

[@calvinderouck]

verry nice , mezmerizing . verry insperational . fan already

[@brettmiller1511]

Insane,very clean drumming all around. No obvious slip ups very consistent. This dude can definitely rip for sure

[@josefkay1054]

9:00 Cat!

[@NuuweiLol]

How you even spot that lol

[@knotdavid]

[@ghost-bs5cf]

[@MattJFilms]

[@Akron162]

[@Kane34572]

7:30 ❤️❤️❤️

[@Kane34572]

I better be this good at the end of my military career >:) GOT 20+ YEARS TO GO WOO hahaha

[@spacepunchgaming6732]

He's struggling! BURN IT MAN FEEL THE BURN!

[@Sodigerati]

Not as much as you think he is! This man has a video of him maintaining 210bpm double bass for 10 minutes straight. You should also check his Xenoflux playthrough, truely amazing.

[@Sabin41]

blrsycth He won an Australian WFD comp back in around 06 for kicks. He's truly a machine.

[@BurnTheNuance]

blrsycth 10 minutes straight? Dang, I wish I had that much dexterity.

[@Sodigerati]

It's all about learning how to optimize the smaller muscle groups in your legs/calves so less energy is used per stroke. That said, I wish I did too hahah

[@BurnTheNuance]

blrsycth Well ya, I've been playing for like five years so I get that haha. Just a little jelly that some guys do that as a warm-up, or use it as a daily routine. I just have to keep practicing, and practicing, and practicing.

[@andrewdoud9861]

what type of vic firth sticks do you use?

[@michalnawrot1783]

+Andrew Doud I think it's "SDCN" model

[@METALLiCMETALLEr]

Is the other guy playing mario? @ 5:38 lol

[@fef6203]

+☢ ϻεтᴧʟʟıʗ ϻεтᴧʟʟεԇ ☠ I see NO mario! You're fucking dumb, its just a computer monitor.

[@METALLiCMETALLEr]

ProgressiveMetalRules \m/ I mean that by hearing and not seeing

[@Sodigerati]

My pants.. need to be changed..

[@gp19]

Big fan of his drum size and cymbal choices. With today's amplification and triggering, there's no need for those nasty heavy cymbals that sound like sh*t.

[@ThePatriotConspirasy]

Jealousy of the drum god is real

[@nighthawk358]

Drummer be like "do you even double bass bro??!!"

[@Cuzjudd]

My God the bass drum stamina is insaneee. Can't stand the dirty vocals doe

[@RamiRouhana]

Most of it is great work! but why the hurry ?

[@Kane34572]

?

[@zaiabivatel]

Double bass through whole song is boring.

[@cygnusbass]

wellllllll my friend. Lucky for you there's 70 more minutes of double bass to choose from on the album!

[@Bryan-T]

cygnusbass hah. I gotta say, Citadal is too short imo. I loved the long tracks on Portal.

[@BurnTheNuance]

Normally I would totally agree with you and I sorta do here, but I think he does enough creative cymbal accents that it sorta balances it all.

[@JGC1]

It's not fault of the double drum but the rest of the song...

[@Ready_Fire_Aim]

at least its not start stop blasts every 4 bars. sick of that shit. this flows

[@alexz2702]

That's just fucking silly really.

[@minaflowers4569]

Alex Z what is

[@ashleymerritt9461]

Great drummer clearly.. but oh boi I hate watching drummer that don't hit. If that kick drum wasn't triggered I swear you'd never hear it!

[@DissYraiN]

I can not stand about 99% of black metal vocals. Sick to see someone in metal repping Zildjians. seems like everyone is on Meinl and Sabian. and the E-kit triggers? they are the only ones that actually work on shitty modules.

[@Nicktolias]

Very light player, no complex fills or patterns

[@Kane34572]

Nick Tolias no u

[@boringuserhandle]

Extremely solid drumming. I thought the music was almost unbearably awful though. Must be the tightest wear mark I've ever seen on a snare!

[@Utilitarismopastroni]

9 min of boooooorign blast beat. I'm so tired to listen a metal drummer with out anny imagination.

[@maaaaaap]

no imagination? nice joke.

[@ShadowmakeResistance]

nothing special, new..... innovation?

[@METALUPYOURASS12222]

great playing. terrible music
