Kriegsmaschine - Residual Blight - Drums Cover by K.Paradis

Been thinking about working on this song since the album released...finally got myself into it ! What a song, what a drumming on this song, and the whole album !
On this video, I'm using a fantastic T-Cymbals custom hi-hat that I just recieved ! Low pitch, bright sound, super precise ! More like jazz hat, but I'm sure going to use it on some other music.

[@METALLiCMETALLEr]

@@themightyx2y230 Hey, I discovered Mgla some weeks ago thanks to a Sickdrummer video...Fucking awesome band, thanks m8

[@fatheremmons85]

Very impressive for somebody that isnt Darkside himself to be able to cover Darkside.

[@mateusgabriel3013]

Damn impressive!

[@boobtubenoob7061]

I agree to an extent but also this is Kevin Paradis, this is chill compared to the stuff he plays with benighted.

[@x-Gingerbeard-x]

@@boobtubenoob7061 False. ''That is a super hard song, but it defenetely didn't took me 3 years to be able to play it ! Took me 3 years to find the motiviation to finally try it, then it took me 7/10 days to learn it properly, and that is already A LOT of time for one song !'' This is taken from Kevin's own comment below. I also highly suggest to give Kriegsmaschine's full album (Apocalypticists) a few spins, because it is actually incredibly complex. I don't think you realize what sets Darkside apart.

[@boobtubenoob7061]

@@x-Gingerbeard-x One of my favourite albums man, and he’s one of my favourite drummers. It’s not a criticism at all. I get his playing unique and complex, but I can play a fair few kriegsmachine and mgla tracks and I couldn’t even begin to play a benighted track. That’s not me trying to brag or put anyone down it’s just an observation, I’ve been playing for 20 years and spent a lot of my time playing black metal and grindcore.

[@x-Gingerbeard-x]

@@boobtubenoob7061 That's fair man! I mean the drumming in KM/Mgla and Benighted is incredibly technical in their own way, I just thought calling this stuff chill was kinda odd, since it is just differently difficult hahah! Have a good weekend!

There is so much talent in these bands, and then you look at the scop they feed you on the radio... It's always like this.

[@Beelos666]

Holy FUCK. This was AMAZING. Hail Darkside and hail Kevin Paradis.

[@NorwegianClasd]

This must be the video I've watched the most on youtube

[@ROFLBOB24]

The fact it took you 3 years to get from release to being able to actually play it is a huge testament to how insane Darkside is, and it's also a testament to how good you are to be able to emulate that. Awesome cover, I absolutely love it, this is one of my favorite metal songs because I think this is some of the most clinical drums I've ever heard.

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

[@ROFLBOB24]

@@kevinparadisdrummer Fair enough, it would have taken me 3 years to learn it. lol

[@TupDigital]

They should be called Cymbalmachine...Darkside loves his windmill-like arm rotations, leaving no cymbal left out of the fun. Monstrous Kev, absolutely gratuitous. 👍 dope to see this level of mid tempo wizardry. Woah wild unorthodox usage of bass drum at the end!

[@ancientatomicimmortality4016]

He's definitely addicted to them little cymbal accents

[@Walduhu]

I'd get a stroke trying to cover this. Good work!

[@C5drummer]

Exceptional Cover. You captured the dynamics as Darkside would have! It just amazes me of just how creative Darkside is, and the skill both of you have to do what you do. Cheers mate!

[@thinkpad20]

Phenomenal. I’d love to see your take on Exercises in Futility V

[@andriybutok5415]

Imho, it is one of the hardest songs in Black Metal and Kevin performed it perfectly! Such an amazing job, I'm totally impressed!

Great cover of a great song from a great album!

From a great band of course!

[@kaleunthomsen7917]

[@olionele]

really good one

[@haystackdmilith]

To cover a song the Darkside himself had to play to prove it's even playable… Big respect Kevin! Great job! :)

[@kohlamon9199]

First time i see that trick with stick on the bass drum. Awesome work!

[@rasecthebloody]

Great and strong fills but the five stars go for the solid playing at the crossed grooves. Terrific cover, Kev.

[@luciferincestus]

One legend covering another!

[@wladimiralejandrollantencu8306]

queremos mas Kriegsmaschine covers , esta banda es impresionante

[@somdusazerate]

I didn't even notice the pattern starting at about 00:50 but it is there, the album just needs more dynamics. This is why I like to watch this video so often. Shows you how intense darkside's drumming patterns are. Really good job with this cover.

[@sebastianbitter1657]

Unbelievably insanely impressive cover! My brain is overstrained believing what eyes and ears are telling it.

[@andreafiorigeek]

AMAZING job man! The songs on this album pushed even Darkside to his limit. I remember he posted a picture at the end of the recording sessions with only a word: relief!

This is truly phenomenal. I come back to watch over and over. Well done.

[@sfmoosavian]

I have watched this cover more than 100 times and finally could not resist commenting on how amazing it is, especially the part that starts at 3:26; many still do not believe that Darkside played that complex pedals ... Thanks for sharing this Kevin!

[@sfmoosavian]

@hatedheretic I have watched that video the day it came out ... crazy!

[@sohaib785]

The pedals are actually quite simple. It's just triplets. It's everything else over the pedals' pattern that's complex

[@sfmoosavian]

@@sohaib785 well, Darkside himself does not think like that ... he had to make video to prove he actually played that part kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpLLYZV6ecpmkNU And the splash part is not simple at all!

[@Marekgor]

I usually don't comment videos on YT, but man! THIS IS INCREDIBLE. Huge respect for covering this piece of art by Kriegsmachine/Darkside.
