Hammer Smashed Face -1 Expert Drums - Rock Band 2

[@Nubnut]

Double bass was never considered cheating to begin with. And the way he does it, is he hits the red pad with the base of his left stick.

[@ir8857]

Haha. I love how calm you are when you miss it. Other people would have some extreme freak out afterwords, but you sit there calmly.

[@Midfeildjake24]

this song has many tempo changes. they look easy to spot but when you are playing the song your mind still thinks you're at the old temp so you aren't even close to hitting the notes. its difficult but a good skill to have.

[@RedSharkMan]

Easiest way to 4-star it using one pedal is pretty much save your overdrive for when you have constant kicks with RY, and just mack the hell outta that for points. For staying alive during the other fast bass parts you can just hit half of the bass notes and pretty much be alright. Helps if you can combo the ending as well, as far as getting 4-stars.

[@mayhemrokr2008]

finally someone who knows what they're talking about. personally i like the stuff. but its good to see someone that even though they'e not a fan, knows that it actually takes alot of skill.

[@someguy913]

I'm switching my grip to hold the stick more towards the middle, and hitting the yellow pad with the tip, and the red pad with the butt end.

[@djwhetzel]

Lol, you never cease to amaze me. And to think, I thought you would have your hands full with these songs. Nice job. I see an FC in the near future.

[@jimbodelimbo]

0:56 = epic drum fill.

[@Iacrodgers]

When he activates the Overdrive he hits the pedal as well, I do that and wondered if i was odd, I'm glad i'm not the only one that does that.

[@TaylorGoesFast]

@hedlundkevin666 Midi , if you look the GHWT kit has a midi port so Just plug it into there, even if you are playing rockband, it will work the same

[@Nubnut]

@orfenandanarchy True, to an extent. Early Between the Buried and Me is metalcore, later BtBaM is generally considered Progressive Extreme Metal (like Opeth).

[@Terpstra24]

my brian is melting when I see you complete this song GREAT JOB

[@DeathPenguin1000]

@TheDevilWearsNikeAir Haha. This song was made in 1992 and was on there second album (Tomb of the Mutilated). They didn't have much money obviously. And I think it sounds decent. They are very skilled indeed. Btw this song was made when they had Chris Barnes as the vocalist (just incase people didn't know).

[@Cheezumz002]

Wow at around 3:20some you were using your left hand for the red and yellow at the same time that was pretty kick ass!

[@KrunchyGoodness]

@LightThingsUp he is hitting the yellow and red pad equivalents with his left stick at the same time

[@SuperWolf3d]

@mysterydego no ur wrong cuz death waz called mantas so they did like 5 demos so did possessed while on brasil sepultura did already an album

[@mysterydego]

@Bio69 Pretty much the same band, it was founded in 1983 under the name Mantis but later changed to Death

[@azuritereaction]

yeah, that's what i was saying: but i mean, on SOME songs like Disturbed pack, the double bass is slow enough that you really don't need it, in any case. here, that's not the case: it's much more viable to use double bass

[@IxTerrorOfDeathxI]

Yes, back when it came out. These songs however, were charted with TWO pedals in mind. AS for the whole two feet one pedal, that's not really something you'd do in real life while drumming, you'd just double bass.

[@ProlificPandas]

Yea i think it is for most songs, ever since GH: M... but if not, definitely should for this song due to the overcharting on bass.

[@metallicaguy85]

about ur comment saying someguy was only hitting the yellow notes and the red ones magically getting hit... he was hitting the rim of the red pad with the bottom of his stick or maybe hand

[@azuritereaction]

this is the first song on rock band that i think using double bass can be excused on, especially due to the fast part (the pattern that's at :41 to :50, and every time it comes up after it). i know i've comboed that part with one foot and so have others, but it's legitimately fast enough that it's fine to use double bass there too if you like. (no i am not putting this run down, duh) gg run though, -1? jesus :X this song has a TON of tempo changes too, which makes it even more difficult

[@Enigma793]

No, like it says in the annotation, 1 stick two pads, you can see that he is hitting his snare pad with the back of his stick, just look at little closer. :)

[@mysterydego]

@guitargod909 Hmm... Well they did come before Death for sure, came about during thrash's uprising. But they did release their first album in 1993

[@CluelessChaos]

haha freaking sweet. i had to re look how you hit the red notes and wow... the normal drum i have to used arent spaced far enough to do something as awesome as that XD

[@shibishmo]

@JCassidy3383 the miss is at 3:22 he misses a red note

[@Silencer51590]

double foot pedal is now allowed on RB2 they just realed a pack that has a big ass spilter that needs batterys.... i dont know why made they it so big but it also bring th e second foot pedal.

[@GabrielTheDrummer96]

@mysterydego well, Possessed's "Seven Churches" came berfore "Scream Bloody Gore"

[@freewebber]

At 3:24 the butt of the drum stick is hitting the red pad. He does this for consistency, but its still a hard maneuver.

[@molomono]

@MutantClannfear You're talking the Bay metal scene, the bay area isn't the only place where metal took off. Just saying.

[@z0mbiew0lf]

For 20 bucks, you can actually buy a second RB2 pedal from harmonix that actually comes with a double bass splittter. Pretty sure Gamestop/gamecrazy/etc sells them

[@MrAydee29]

that 2 pads 1 stick thing is probably the craziest thing i've ever seen on drums. it was like jlc's epic tap strum in his slash guitar battle fc :-o

[@RedSharkMan]

I agree with you on that, the one time I did play Hammer Smashed Face, I didn't get very far past the 4* cutoff, but I can almost gold Panic Attack.

[@Mooseplatoon]

yeah, i always used my left foot for support when drumming on Rock Band when i switched to real drums it made it awkward to use the hi-hat pedal correctly

[@demonbomb102]

That two pads thing is pretty darn clever...may have to try it myself.

[@AQganon]

@worldssmallestfan Possessed was the first band to form the Death Metal sound more than any other band, and they got popular from Seven Churches, Death wasn't "on the map" until Scream Bloody Gore. People say SBG is the first true Death Metal album, but it has just as much thrash as Seven Churches did.

[@UPWNU]

plus there are tons of rock band players who use a double pedal. it's actually a good idea to have a double pedal if you think about it for this song. plus, it's not CHEATING, it's just HELPING them to get 100% on the song....

[@Calvin_Flidais]

Wow dude cannibal corpse is sick! It's nice to see them in rock band haha... excellent drumming dude! Keep it up!

[@champ299]

the fill at 56 is amazing... im amazed

[@spaznadz]

Sweet drum set. I like the double bass thingy.

[@agentpaperman]

Incredible performance. At 3:20 I only saw you 2 handing the yellow and not hitting the red. Are you just that fast? lol. Can you do this with one foot?

[@Wild_Open]

i think your right, i also love al those bands and sometimes its a little annoying when people compairing COB with the "music" on this vid. i also lookt it up and COB is melodeath metal which containes the word death but is completly different from deathmetal : )

[@mechamind90]

*If it's PS2, I'd say Guitar Hero, but only based from the reason that neither one can access the internet. *PS3 or Xbox360, I'd say Rock Band, particularly on drums since if you got the RB1 set in another Harmonix game, you don't have to worry about the batteries. *I'm not sure about the Wii, though. One is cross-compatible with another, but not vice versa.

[@criticalhit64]

When you get this FC, please get it on video, as I would love to see a video of this song getting pwned ;)

[@Drumada]

Holy Crap, I dont even think i would pass this song at all. thats nice dude!

[@FerrariF50]

It is allowed now, Rock Band even has an expansion pedal out with a splitter for double bass.

[@Verdugothewatcher]

This song forced me to have to learn how to play with 2 feet on one pedal. Awesome run!

[@HonkeyKongLive]

@Junglist562 I can keep up with this song just fine one-footed. My ACCURACY is pretty shit, but during the fastest parts I hold combo just fine. This song is 100% possible to do with one foot/pedal. The others, though...

[@chronicle15]

It is, the hard part of this song is the blasting. For the bass parts your just need a good heeltoe technique and a good basspedal.

[@ethanamoney]

What he means by one stick two pads is that when he hits with his left hand hes hitting the yellow with one end of the stick and the red pad with the other end of the stick!

[@Nubnut]

@auron6293 Except for this is more related to Grindcore, If you want to hear some good Death Metal look up something along the lines of Stabwound by Necrophagist. Or better yet, Deliverance by Opeth.

[@briannagurl10888]

perfect! i can play this! are those real drums your using or a upgrade on a rock band drums.cause i know people who play like guitar hero with a real guitar because they did tech stuff to it.

[@SenorClam16]

you are amazing, but i want to know how (because it really looks like it from the vid) at 3:20 you manage to switch the red to the top left tom and switch the yellow to the right tom. Basically it looks like your hitting the red on the yellow pad and the yellow on the blue pad, or im just crazy :P no matter wut, you are very good lol

[@daniel55645]

they're starting to chart doulbe bass, if you listen to some of the mayhem pack, they chart the double bass

[@Wheatspin]

i think the rb1 stock pedal doesn't work. there IS an official double bass splitter, but a headphone jack works too. I don't know about the quality of one as opposed to the other though

[@RuariMH]

i wish real drumkits had that kind of sensitivy as yours ... that would make for epic drum fills.

[@SniperKingA13]

@azazeldrummer Actually, I play real drums and rockband drums and the only difference is the way the stick comes off of the drum heads and that there are only 4 pads in rockband, otherwise the sticking and all the mechanics are the same as real drums. And yes I know real drums can have up to 3 times or even more drums/cymbols but it is still the same thing.

[@bdillz89]

@oceanavenue4 and also that cannibal corpse was in ace ventura

[@mysterydego]

@TheRedPentagram Well Chuck Shuldiner is the father of death metal, he had been working with death metal since 1983. And yes they were, but Death was the first big death metal band so clam down lol

[@zazakoolaid]

He was hitting just the yellow pad, but it you'll watch his left wrist, he's using it to hit the pad mapped to red.

[@FriendKevo]

Idk if he'd be able to do that with a regular RB2 set. So this way his equipment does affect his FC.

[@SantoOs92]

wow, im so amazed, how did u do the blinded by fear part, look sso weird, what are you doing there, hitting RY with one hand?

[@FuttMcBucket]

The drums that he is using make 1:36 and 1:41 sound really cool.

[@MistaAlCapwn]

That set is crazy as hell!

[@acynnon]

Harmonix was involved with Gh1 and 2 though, think about it.

[@Tony72495]

@jamesyboy0987654321 if you look closely at his drumming you will see that he was using his right hand on the yellow, then with his left hand he was alternating the yellow with the tip of his drum stick and the red with the butt of his drum stick

[@esond]

Just because you don't like it still makes it music. Its organized sound. Just like any mainstream band. Metal takes some getting used to. People usually dont jump right into heavy hardcore bands like cannibal corpse. They usually start with like iron maiden and then as they crave heavier harder stuff maybe go onto metallica and slayer. Then we end up with stuff like cannibal corpse. Sick as fuck and heavy as hell.

[@SgtDeath258]

It's legal to use double-bass for RB now since GH made a kit that works with both games and is easy to hook up two pedals to. So naturally with all the GH players using their double-bass kits, Harmonix/Scorehero had to say "Well go ahead and use 'em if you got 'em!" I still don't like the idea though, RB should be played with 1 foot because they don't chart double-bass, GH can do it's own thing though. I've passed all these songs except Horrible Night 1 foot, and I plan to pass that one soon!

[@bladelazoe]

wow awsome song but a pain in the ass to pass very nice job dude you can get an FC we belive in you!!!!

[@dujl]

@GuitarHeroAddict112 No, the name came from the band, "Death".

[@ric3krispi3]

if you watch more closely, you'll see that when he hits the yellowpad with his left hand, he also hits the red with the bottom of his stick.

[@another_aaron]

Its not fake its just that E-drums are very sensitive and will spit out notes when you do buzz rolls on them.

[@LedZep2000]

wow, in 3:23 where are you hitting the reds? beast

[@arinazb4365]

Go!!! double bass action :) awesome job calin near FC

[@beeemdubya]

Are you hitting the red pad with your wrist starting at 3:20? And it's hilarious that you're using a double bass for rock band. Imagine how good I could be if I had the means to do that....

[@freezeur]

WOOW awesome, paricularly when you hit the 2 pads with 1 stick. BTW you make 99%, but when you miss ? I don't find.

[@dujl]

Best metal drummer? Haake in my honest opinion. He's like a machine, pulling of crazy time signatures and with great stamina.

[@booman61]

I never noticed either, I had to watch it again. It's around 3:23. The annotation distracted me =)

[@MrMike0113]

I felt really sorry for him when this first came out. He came so close to an FC, and I'm sure it was a while before anyone else managed it.

[@t3hgir]

Funnest song from the mayhem pack, fills are actually fun, and the song is great

[@Xem92]

3:20 - 3:45 One hand, two pads? Sheer brilliance.

[@Wheatspin]

i've got the metal pedal too did yours not work for the first like month of having it? to answer your question though, you do have to buy it online

[@modifide]

That was pretty insane right their. nice job

[@33plissken]

Yes it does, read his description.

[@Caboose1984]

I just noticed that! I was wondering how the hell he was hitting the red when both sticks were on the yellow!! NICE!!!

[@S1nOptic]

sick man, honestly an amazing drum video of CC, i just wish people would watch videos of music THEY like so people could enjoy the music and not have to argue with annoying people that TRY to bash this music, but fail miserably lol

[@Fireside19B]

love the set! and the note streak, lol

[@Dilgaf1]

i love the tempo changes

[@PSFreek5]

exactly 2001 notes in this song, 2001 was the year N*Sync was popular, but it's not about that. Epic if someone FC'd with only RB1 stock pedal

[@RandyPoopie]

Holy shit. You'll get the FC soon!

[@tobitobide]

@RobertMWoodward What do you mean by that?

[@libertheme66]

yeah i do agree with u on that strongly rock band does have more diverstity i only like GH for guitar hero metallica pretty much

[@eNSWE]

Not much swearing in it. The same thing happened with Good Mourning/Black Friday. It's also about some dude splashing peoples heads with a hammer, only since it has nearly no swearing at all it's hardly not cencored at all.

[@someguy913]

Sure, for the first ten runs in a row or so. I switched to this because it was less tiring.

[@DrunkCookies]

ya it does...two pedals are legal now

[@Notere]

@MutantClannfear Oh, it goes beyond that sort of thing. Cannibal Corpse was influenced by Obituary. Hell, some of the band members overlap. Look at past lineups of Obituary, Cannibal Corpse, and Six Feet Under. It's like a death metal love triangle.

[@ethanamoney]

Yes it is possible on a rb2 kit!

[@acynnon]

Is the double bass splitter just a headphone splitter? And would a Rb1 and rb2 pedal work for it? (Even though my rb1 pedal has a huge crack in it lol)

[@Aqueousfoboy]

o. o that drums! where u buy it?

[@EnigmasityGG]

yea it is, but he is able to use 2 pedals with his modded roland-e-kit because the kit has one bass pad. and so the 2 beaters hit the sam pad. the game thinks its just one pedal.
