Gojira | OROBORUS | Drum Cover

Gojira - OROBORUS (The Way of All Flesh) drum cover. What an absolute monster of a song. Older Gojira feels so raw and aggressive but still groovy and unique. I love the epic song structure in Oroborus - makes the song feel like an experience. The Duplantier brothers are a blessing to metal music.
Audio recorded using my Presonus Studioliv 16.0.2 mixer and edited on Garageband. Video captured using 2 camera angles and edited on iMovie. Thank you for watching and for reading my video descriptions.

Mario Duplantier turns metal drums into true art.

[@sdsd8122]

But metal is true art

[@DrummingManiac1]

Hell yea brother!! I air-drum'd along with you on almost all of it ;) Gojira has a special place in my heart. Rock on man!

[@drums4life3]

DrummingManiac1 Right on my man! Thank you

[@busradrums5893]

I don't know how to describe it, especially publicly, but... your playing is so tender without any exaggerated physical movements, yet filled with power and preciseness, and is masculine. All of it makes this video quite hypnotizing. Congrats!

[@drums4life3]

Well said, thank you!

[@sbuzzard69]

Jesus. You whipped that song’s ass! Awesome! Note for note

[@DahakaCL]

tell me do you enjoy playing a song without telling me: ... This is beautiful man.

[@iau]

2:41 Whoa, first time I've ever seen someone crossing over to the snare like that. Looks dangerous! Is in comfortable to you or just for show? Great cover btw! Not enough Gojira drum covers out there.

[@drums4life3]

iau The ride crossover seemed like the easiest way to play the part without getting another ride cymbal... and maybe a little bit for show. Thank you and I agree! There can never be enough Gojira drum covers.

[@blackendoblivion]

I was gonna say the same thing! Killer job, man!

[@sauravsharma690]

It's easier that way and it looks cool. Win-win.

[@458Cowboy]

[@COBrien45]

I've been playing drums for around six years now, and this song still blows my mind, mario is a machine of a drummer, could you help me to try and get the ghost notes on the snare drum down?

[@andriupeace4594]

Este cover es jodidamente brutal!!! Felicitaciones tío! Y si no entiendes lo que digo en castellano ,te jodes y aprendes jejejeje

[@drums4life3]

Te entiendo! Estudiaba castellano cuando estaba en el colegio. Cuídate tío

[@Mickocarbomb]

My band is gonna try this if our drummer can get it, I think he can, I sent him your video for reference for him so it's easier than listening to song so he has a visual to see.

[@masonaalgaard3729]

Amazing cover! I love the sound of those Zildjian crashes and china!! I'm wondering what series theyre from or where I can find them. Id love it if you could send me a quick link or the name of the cymbals! Thank you!

[@drums4life3]

Mason Aalgaard 18” Zildjian A Custom Crash, 16” Zildjian A Custom Fast Crash, Zildjian China (not sure of the specifics as I bought it used). Thank you!

[@blob_87]

Holy fuck

[@DB9682]

Fantastic playing. Question for you... I cane across your video based on your Audix F series (maybe first video you posted). It didnt sound good (for many reasons), but you acknowledged that and said to check out newer videos AND here I am! So, my question - aee you using the same F series in this video and all your newer videos OR what are you using now? Again, your playing is great! Thanks in advance.

[@drums4life3]

Bird Audio Mixing Mastering Thank you! To answer your question - yes I’m still using those Audix F series microphones with the exception of a Shure SM57 on the snare. I appreciate you actually checking out my newer videos because my drums did sound terrible in that initial video. The Audix F Series is a quality mic pack with an affordable price, would still recommend them.

[@DB9682]

Awesome. I was hoping so because I am thinking of buying the F series. Appreciate your feedback. Keep it up! You are awesome man!

[@TronciM]

For some reason I struggle to do the snare ghost notes when playing 8th notes on the ride. I find it way easier to do the snare notes whilst playing 16th notes on the ride. By the way, you're VERY good.

[@josephdepinho435]

Idk if you still can’t play this song but a good way to get the 8th notes on the ride but still be able to play 16ths is alternating between the bell and then the ride. If you play it with some finesse, it will sound basically just like an 8th note pulse on the bell but still can hit some of the ghost notes on the off beats

[@TheEroth1]

I see you haven't stopped using garageband or changed cameras since 2015. Great cover though!

[@drums4life3]

Mursey haha you’re exactly right. Thank you!

[@AndriolliRenato]

Hi kevin! How are you!? I watch your videos in your youtube channel, and they are very good, congratulations by the work! I have been the creator of the Gojira Brasil page on Facebook since 2006 and I am starting this channel to do videos with other musicians around the world. I would like to know if I have your permission to do a collab video of oroborus to record a guitar on top . let me know your answer! thank you and hugs from brazil!

[@David-ri9zd]

Hello Kevin, first of all congratulations for this cover which is perfect. That's why I want to ask you: do you have the drumsheet of the song? I would really like to be able to play it as well as you do. If you agree I'll give you my email address (and at the same time I'd like to discuss with you about the drums if you agree). Thanks in advance and have a nice day.
