ABORTED@Cadaverous Banquet-Ken Bedene-live in Brutal Assault 2016 (Drum Cam)

[@LilDeuceDeuce]

Holy shit...he's so calm and composed, that every time it cuts to the foot cam I burst out laughing...that's just some straight up Loony Tunes/Road Runner shit

[@DiePixelkrieger]

Is this the reeeeeel lildeuce ?

[@SkateSmokeAndDrum]

He was pretty hyped this vid too. Usually he looks like he’s just reading a book

[@frankburdodrums8984]

His swivel technique is quite impressive. His legs look like Rubberman from The Fabulous 4.

[@LilDeuceDeuce]

@@frankburdodrums8984 I'm just watching this video again and picturing the crowd losing it if they put the foot cam on a giant screen onstage. Every time they cut to him doing swivel technique I clap like a toddler, it's too perfect

So freaking impressive, the dude was meant to play drums plus he is a class act!

[@user-me7mm7gr1p]

Guy looks more like some nerd programmer than a extreme metal drummer haha

+Peterston Northpole Troll..

[@Wannalikemy]

+Peterston Northpole Lol. Just no.

[@KenBedene]

+Peterston Northpole :( last I checked my pants had 4 pockets.

[@1997slayerfan]

Retrogore is my album of the year, for a final decision I have to hear the new Meshuggah album, but you guys raised the bar pretty high thats for sure! :D Really looking forward to february, to see you guys opening for Soilwork, Sepultura and Kreator in Berlin. :)

[@BurnTheNuance]

+Peterston Northpole Youre a troll for saying he couldn't groove. Dumbass. Slow down most these rolls, and fills and they'd fit in the pocket. You're clearly a troll who knows little to nothing about drumming.

[@DustinPlatt]

He looks calm on the surface but his feet drop nuclear bombs.

[@oscara.9265]

Dustin Platt looks more like it's sped up

[@slayer8273]

[@barad-dur9236]

Oscar Avila it’s not I just played with them in pittsburgh and he’s inhuman it’s fucking retarded how fast and consistent he is

[@Fr3sHxiFn4TiC]

yes, Oscar... they sped it up... he just sped himself up while playing live... whatever you're smoking.. it's bad for you

[@KarlCityRun]

@@Fr3sHxiFn4TiC 😂😂😂😂😂

[@user-me7mm7gr1p]

Probably the most insane extrememetal drummer I know. So effortless and super tight.

[@aborted4196]

The dude has improv chops as well. Every time you hear him it's something slightly different

[@bagzy868]

David Diepold

[@gringochucha]

@@aborted4196 Exactly. He really brings the freedom and excitement of jazz drumming into extreme metal in an organic way, balancing it with super tight chops.

[@Litthopedion]

I like how he plays like its no big deal, he's like "yeah that was cool, can i go home now and watch my favorite cartoon"

[@christophnoth8797]

Which is literally what he does the whole day

[@frankburdodrums8984]

He's in the "ZONE" man!!!

[@PeaceDweller]

He always looks like he'd rather be at home developing apps using C++

[@rapscallion52]

love the jazzy ride/bell stuff while blasting at 2:40

[@chickenillness1319]

Bretton M not really jazzy but cool af

[@rapscallion52]

sure it is, if you took away the blasting underneath it, it would fit right in with some up tempo jazz

[@AquaAnim]

Bretton M indeed it would!

[@heresjohnny999]

recommend me some uptempo jazz

[@dinkorojas805]

jazzy ?? pff!!

[@nathanatkin1984]

One of the best drummers in extreme metal.

[@jeffloss18]

without a doubt.

[@aaronmiller7450]

my favorite band and favorite drummer!

[@noctambulo1006]

This boy seems out of this world, so relaxed, enjoying his masterful demonstration without fuss, not wanting to draw attention, only making his devilish rhythms and compasses, totally awesome, he is a really Master drummers.

[@Sh1bble]

I love how he maintains so much tonality and control of dynamics with his hands, on top of the fact his footwork is flat out incredible, the guy's very well rounded, I'm always happy to see when a new Aborted drum cam gets uploaded :D

[@vincefisher9907]

Sh1bble he continues to astound me ,groove like a mother... and those blasts and swivel kicks,holy shit!!!

[@faducci]

Absolutely one of my new favorite drummers WOW!!!

[@bigjonnah3825]

Ken dosen't need the biggest setup! Utilized every part of a small set in thunderous waves 🤘🤘

[@morgankane1643]

Its been proven by science that when Ken swivels his feet, he is actually applying pressure to the plates under the earth's crust preventing earthquakes.

[@felixgarstka]

Ok I believe you

[@frankburdodrums8984]

I heard otherwise. I heard it creates intense heat from friction and it melts and actually makes cracks in the earth causing earthquakes.

Hahahahajaajajajahhaahahahaha

[@harvythewondergerbil]

People might shit on bass drum triggers, but they really clean up the sound at 42069 BPM. Not to mention that if you do make a mistake it's much easier to hear because the kicks aren't a muddy blob of sound.

[@hazardeur]

I usually hate triggers and most drummers use them to do the work for them but then there are also guys like Ken who are actually so good that they can use Trigers to their advantage and simply because they have to because of clarity, as you say. Most other drummers put the sensitivity to 1 Million so they can tapdance on their bassdrums. On top there are some than quantize the hits and some that don't. The former sound sterile but accurate, the latter sound like a typewriter that is falling down some stairs. Hate I do both kinds. But this guy here can really play his drums and he definitely uses triggers right. It's a joy to watch

[@aborted4196]

Plus his fills are just straight jazzy.

[@jessebowles5632]

This video is fire

[@BurnTheNuance]

[@666sicksatan666]

In fucking love with Ken's drumming, such a fucking machine!!!

[@hugorezende199]

I guess this is pure CGI i cannot believe hoe he is that fast and solid. He reaches everything with ease and on time. Even with loads of notes. Really an impressive guy, he has technique to plat everything.

[@toolband1992]

Amazing performance. Had the pleasure of seeing this guy close-up at gigs and he is an incredible drummer; one of my favorite extreme metal drummers. Thanks again for great footage. :)

[@da8171]

Ohh man, this is def one of my favorite Aborted songs. I have so much respect for this band. They always stuck to their own sound and style, only making it better with each album. Fucking great band

[@aborted4196]

Seriously. I feel like this band is only gotten better with every release 😂

[@D2ezbmu]

The best swivel foot in the game

[@evans2267]

hmm i would go with kollias

[@Flayed_Flesh23]

@@evans2267 Mmm.... i would go with David McGraw.

[@Flayed_Flesh23]

Ken is a very talented drummer though, dude is an amazing guy to hang out with too him his dad and i hang out all the time when hes home from tour lots and lots of video games and boxing.

[@smn1085]

never really got into them as a band but like this. he has a very natural and groovy style

I have found a new favorite drummer.

[@SuburbanConan]

Without the footage you'd think it's a machine....and the guy looks like he's waiting for a bus.... Probably loves Minecraft too.....

Unreal, this is excellent

[@Ironsvillage]

His snare sounds so fucking sexy.

Damn, I look more exhausted waiting in line at the grocery store. Unreal.

amazing drumming Ken and amazing snare sound!

This is some of the most interesting death metal drumming I’ve ever heard. Love the hand work!

[@craigpaulson3503]

At 3:15 when he takes a deep breath, you know shits about to get serious!

[@michelegates4240]

that swivel action is the most pronounced ive ever seen very exaggerated. nice job😉

[@mikemenze1043]

This guy kills it. I love how he does the hyper double bass like kolias. It’s just insane

Holy fuck! Just discovered this guy! What a beast. So relaxed and brutal at the same time. Gonna have to binge watch his stuff now!

This is the best video you have so far! Ken Bedene kicks ass!

[@claudioinvidia8326]

I think the best part of his drumming is the fact that he always play the same songs in a slightly different way and he has amazing musicality too. I bet he not only has a metal background

[@bigstef2010]

I love this guy. He looks like the guy next door but he has unbelievable skills. Insane drumming. Precise and powerful.

[@ForViewingOnly]

Awesome! Thanks for the upload. If I had one minor criticism, it's that I'm not too keen on the video cutting quickly from one camera to another... it distracts from what the drummer is really doing. One side-on camera and one for the feet is enough for me. Still, thanks again.
