band: INFANT ANNIHILATOR song: CuntCrusher The gears are set into place; the finals stages of purification are Nudged into motion by our pious Pope. The prevention of the second Coming of Christ is now drawing closer to completion. Dissolution of Component forces act together as one - a single congregation tied Together with one purpose in mind: The prevention of Christ's birth. Dead are collected and piled to feed the flames of a furnace fire. The Day lit sky is now blackened by the infant ashes. As they rise they Bring us darkness, turning day to night. With the remnants of the Children burning, we begin the last stage. Surviving females are Loaded onto transports and then shipped to our parishes where they're Tagged, then stripped of their clothing, assigned numbers and then Taken to eugenic controlled concentration camps. This is where they Spend the rest of their pathetic lives. One by one the worms dry out In the sun at the mercy of their new master. Their existence exhausts Itself without the ability to procreate. Seared onto their heads and Their hands is the mark of The Beast. This holy number, sacred in its Symbolism, now marks the doom of fertility. By the order of the Pope We condemn them to be neutered with a machine devised to sterilize. With a hundred tons of force, its name is The Cuntcrusher. Hooks Pierce through their feet, then suspends them upside down to be fed Into the side where they are conveyed to a press of blades. With their Legs pried open, their cunts align. At the flick of a switch they are Sterilized.

You any good with your feet on a double kick?

@@AndrewRooneyDrums If you do this one (and you should because it's a fantastic track) you'll have to realize that some of the drumming toward the end is done specifically to showcase some epic parts in the vocal section which are removed from the drum-playthrough. It's a fantastic song, but JUST watching the drum playthrough, you might be a little confused why he's leaving so much space between notes. Its because the main Vocalist is basically channeling Satan with insane growls. I do recommend it, just bear that in mind when you watch.

[@WinstonWheelington]

This guy is fast as fuck. But what he's underrated on is how groovy his playing is. He's got a funky style which gets your head nodding along like its a hip hop track. Kitcher is the man

[@Nyarlathotep999]

@@Ibanez-nt5rq When recording the music itself, they program the drums. Even though this is a playthrough video, it's still heavily edited and quantized to sound as clean as it does on the album. It's also heavily sampled as the snare doesn't actually sound that punchy, especially during the gravity blast. Aaron even said they programmed the drums when recording the music. I know Aaron is a great drummer but I also know that infant annihilator is a joke and is meant to be dumb extreme fun.

I mean, deathcore alone gets you As Blood Runs Black, this, Elysia, and Suicide Silence? I mean none of those bands sound the same. What if you wanted more like IA? You'd have to wade through thousands of same-y bands before you find anything. Better to have those really specific genre labels. In casual conversation, it's not really helpful.

[@hymerdl1]

it brings joy to my heart to witness every non-metal listening watch/listen to their first gravity blast and usually this is the video i would show them. most non-metal heads write off the genre as just a bunch of noise but when you put a camera on someone with the technical prowess it's always eye-opening. i've been a metal head for most of my life and honestly the biggest detriment to the genre is the often very grotesque and/or misogynistic lyrics (more so in the extreme metal genre's), but instrumentally the music is just a joy to listen to.

[@germantoenglish898]

El Estepario Siberiano released a video yesterday where he totally isolates the drums in this song. It's insane how good Aaron Kitcher is.

[@Kee-Von]

Just when you thought you knew how to play drums you see this and think yeah, never mind, I retire from what I used to think was playing drums lol Aaron is amazing though. There's some other playthroughs where he's on a simple looking electronic set and he just kills it. They do mock super heavy stuff as someone else mentioned below. There videos/music are kinda like a terrible accident that you oddly can't look away from and stay in your brain.

[@nightmaretheoryofficial]

@@xdoseonex I love how even after all these years, under a video showing him actually playing the gd song in real time, there are still people who who believe this. Just because a musician uses programming during the production of an album, while cutting a record, does NOT mean they are physically incapable of playing it on a kit also...this video is literally proof of that. That's like saying just cause someone orders Mcdonalds for lunch one day, that they must be completely incapable of making a burger. Those two things are not exclusive, mate. Loads of musicians use programming to save on time but it doesn't make them talentless. Anyone who has produced music knows this.

"This is an assault on the senses... and I like it". There... the words of an invocation: a metalhead/headbanger has now born.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

HAHA! Yes Kenton!

[@susannebass5503]

Well that was some drumming 🤪 I think my expressions mirrored yours and I oddly too found it fascinating. WOW🥁

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Glad you enjoyed it! Something different! hehe

[@andysexton8905]

That face with the machine gun! - Priceless Keep up the great work..;-)

[@kentbeitel9966]

Man I swear every metal drummer is fit! That’s a hardcore workout! My arms would be dead! ☠️

[@rileygoodenough5000]

Annihilation of the wicked by nile also has some furious drumming. Worship the digital age by whitechapel is super tight, david diepold does an absolutely beautiful job covering that one.

[@mwilkins1644]

I love AOTW by Nile; but the song Laying Firew Upon Apep would be a better intro

[@richpon1973]

Mike Mangini: These kids with their deathdjentcore drumming! Anyway, hold my beer......

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

HAHA! Yup Mike is insane :)

[@sonicmayhym]

hold my beer...priceless

[@BurrenSHdrums]

Mangini is fuckin fast. But I don't think he can reach this drum pedal drumming. With the hands yeah, absolutely, but with the feet... Man this is insanely fast

[@BoilerBloodline]

I do find it pretty awesome you began initially with your hand over your face and by the end you’d found a space for a fellow drummer regardless of genre. I’ll always be a Danny Carey man. I’ve never heard a drummer like him before. Just amazing.

[@dragulia_venaro]

I really enjoyed the video! \m/

"Is this metal?!" Hahahahahaha Technical Brutal Death Metal

This is my favorite reaction to this band, its awesome🙂

[@Nathdood]

your commentary is absolutely amazing

Rings Of Saturn - The Husk drum play though please!!! U will not be disappointed even more crazy than this

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thank you!

[@Spencer66616]

"machine gun metal" I'm gonna start saying that as a new genre lmao

[@primuscaprius8245]

I love your reaction 😄

[@dgrn101]

Just had to say this was the 3rd video of yours I seen. You're reaction at the 6:50 mark made 2 things happen. 1) a grown man almost pissed himself. 2) I immediately liked, subscribed and turned on notifications. That was quite the experience thank you.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

I'm not doing my job if grown men aren't pissing themselves. Thanks for subbing!

[@meatman666]

"Extreme Metal" would be the classification. Been listening to it evolve since 1989.

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

That's great!

[@Nemarism]

You should react to The Sky is Red by Leprous...there's the official drum playthrough by Baard Kolstad, and I absolutely adore that guy!

[@SelcraigClimbs]

ABSOLUTELY. Such a beautifully funky song. That many hook at the end of the song in 11/8 (if I remember correctly) is so tasty

[@AEtherOcelot]

Dude just looks so comfortable playing that fast.

[@cb9622j]

Awesome video, don't even like metal but it's great drumming and your reaction made it that much more entertaining

[@thebearjew9693]

the gravity blast is something I've not heard like in any other song it's fucking mad

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

[@liquidbeans4209]

Yo, he should listen to Unholy Gravebirth by Infant Annihilator, that song is a lot heavier, and has vocals.

Thank you!!!

First time hearing infant annihilator and I need a fan it's hot in here. 🤘

[@joegonzalez4039]

Omfg, I was dying at 7:30 minutes "that's the sound you hear when you've mastered drumming" LOFL

[@deathmetal5156]

This is (technical) deathcore i would say, with a slight beat down influence

[@stowbaseball13]

Yeah IA is definitely a mix of tech deathcore and beatdown. You can hear the black tongue sound in there

[@joeyuzwa891]

if you ever wanna check out any other insanely fast metal drummers, some of the few people whom I’d say can stand toe to toe with Aaron Kitcher are John Longstreth of Origin, and George Kollias of Nile

[@AndrewRooneyDrums]

Thanks Joe!!!

[@oldguyrips535]

Don't forget Spencer Prewett from Archspire!

Andrew I wasn't ready for that foot speed then to the blast beat on the snare either, Aaron is fierce.

[@barbados1267]

This genre is technical deathcore insaine instrumentals is the point and no vocals cause this is just a drum play through the vocals are also insane

[@michaelberresford4291]

There have been plenty of drum playthroughs with vocals.

[@barbados1267]

Michael Berresford yes but not all of them they don’t have to have vocals there drum play throughS

[@michaelberresford4291]

@@barbados1267 I'm just metioning it coz one of my favourite songs by Haken "1985" has a drum play through with Ray, but there is vocals.

your look when listening to Arron play is Priceless.

[@lauraharris1359]

Absolutely insane!!!

[@andrewquackenbush229]

Death core! Makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck. There are probably vocals that will give you nightmares, just not in this play through.

[@taylorbryan5175]

I'm listening to this on my front porch and my neighbor is weed eating his front yard. I'm pretty sure if he modulates his weedeater just right, he can sonically reproduce the tremolo picked guitar part. Shit is too heavy.

[@mykal-vincent]

I’m 2:19 in and he hasn’t said a WORD. My exact reaction watching this drum play through 😂😂
