Anaal Nathrakh - Powerslave - Drum Cover by David Diepold

[@svem1r]

David is like : " OK, so I mastered single strokes on pedal, I physically can't go faster, I should try heal-toe... OK, so heal-toe is down... Hm... What is else there to master... Oh, push-pull! Ok, this one is crossed from the list too... I should try playing violin... "

[@DavidDiepold]

Haha, that's brilliant! Thank you so much! But I had to learn push pull because I got troubles wit the wrist of my left hand...

[@hardsoftgames8344]

David Diepold yeah yeah you just made up an excuse so we all would feel better about our own drumming skills lol 😂

[@xendra8785]

@@DavidDiepold great job! How long it took you to learn the push pull technique? And what was your practice routine?

[@svem1r]

[@Aggemannen117]

I love their cover of Iron Maiden. Many bands just make a regular cover, but Anaal Nathrakh made it in their own sound

[@ALBundy73]

Extremely right

[@lmmnil4574]

I like Fleshgod Apocalyse's cover of At the Gates - Blinded by Fear for the same reason.

[@Drumsholic]

This is the right decision of covering a band that is not from the same genre!

[@TheLavaenygg]

THE best Maiden cover ever by AN and THE best AN drum cover by David. Double whammy right there. Amazing.

[@robinlove6981]

This has to be one of my favourite ever cocers

4:02 That MIC SPLASH !

[@piffpirates]

Fucking hilarious Lol He's knows his way around the kit. Buttt that shit was still hilarious lol

[@KholmDrums]

It looks so easy! Never seen you do the Push-pull technique either which is cool! Great job as always David!

[@twelvelookslike]

that's what I was about to comment. Wonder why he made the switch

[@racemachine.1558]

@@twelvelookslike It's because he starting feeling pain in his wrist with the standard finger technique as he said in Marthyn's podcast

[@LeGrandPleb]

What is the push pull technique?

[@fhcs6000]

@@LeGrandPleb its the technique hes using mostly for his left hand during the blast beats

[@twelvelookslike]

@@racemachine.1558 Crazy how quick he can adapt

[@imthemetalguy1]

Drummers like this deserve an endorsement with nike, under armour, or something

[@realsoupersand]

Your snare tone is DIVINE! I'm so sick of hearing snare tones that are all bass and no punch. As a drummer myself, I find yours very refreshing. Also, excellent job! I somehow had no idea that one of my favorite black metal bands covered one of the best songs my favorite band has written. Up the Irons!

[@Shane-zo4mg]

That fill at 2:48 keeps me coming back to this video!

[@thefourshowflip]

I get a big smile on my face every time one of your covers pops up in my notifications. Just wanted to let you know, so you keep putting these amazing videos out. :)

Only a true Master can make something so hard look so easy - that is David Diepold! Thanks for sharing.

[@mattbell555]

oh yess finally someone's doing an Anaal Nathrakh cover.

[@DariusKhan]

Of an Iron Maiden cover!

[@argonnas01]

dude, this is phenomenal. when someone is dedicated to their craft it shows. incredible

I've lost count of the times I have seen this! 🤘

Haha me too 😂 Just for the amazing pedal drumming

[@mattvdh]

dude is a technical genius

Damn bro, you're getting better and better every single time I hear you play.. just so powerful in your playing that it's ridiculous.. and you make it look so easy.. and we know it's definitely not as easy as you make it look at all.. you're fuckin Killin it man.. big time!! Holy fuck..

ses ca qui fait son talent.joke

[@timorus8090]

Not surprised about the changes over time. I'd tell people to check stuff out and every now and then remark, "I love this guy, but I think he has cyborg wrists," because the angle and height on fast, sustained strokes were notable. But it's all love these days. Phenomenal across the board and a joy to wake up to.

[@_misterwilly]

Dude your techniques are on point. Never seen that blast technique before. Looks efficient and sounds great. Keep these videos coming!!

[@LeachimSagrav333]

I think hellhammer does the same blast style?

[@hausersmoran8588]

if I start practicing and focusing on double bass right now, I'll easily play that fast after only 6 to 8 thousand years.

[@ultrafloss492]

Search for the Derek Roddy practice videos

[@drummonkeystuffuk1875]

@@ultrafloss492 Yeah man Roddy has some excellent technique foot blaster tricks, the other main point is getting your pedals angles/spring tension and positioning right! I find I play better on looser springs!

[@Shane-zo4mg]

Man this songs got everything!!! Love watching your wrist when you blast it's mesmerizing

[@LeGrandPleb]

That was absolutely sick. Never really listened to this band before, but it's also an awesome Maiden cover. I like that they but their own spin on it rather than a note for note cover.

[@yoloswaggins7636]

actually they are easily moving for a minute, mine are sometimes moving for longer, so eventhough they are very heavy , the smoothness compensates the weight ^^

Matteo 23 Do you really believe that? Speed is really not the decisive one. But feeling, power, groove, strokes that are NOT beeing played. Everything that you miss in this playing. Weak strokes and believe me: primarily that drumming is SILENTLY. Nowadays everybody is impressed only by speed - sad.
