@@behindthen0thing525 I mean that many drummers today can learn and play this (and many other old school) song through "flawlessly", but it might not sound and look natural for the drummer to play, but forced and stiff.

Love this song. Trym is a beast and so is this performance. Thanks, Krimh!

[@johnzackarias11]

Amazing performance! What amazes me, too, is that this record came out in 1997, with no blast beat or double bass guides online or anything like that (to my knowledge). He, Frost, Hellhammer, and others, they kind of just...figured it out.

[@AUM_-po9sc]

Horgh was taught this, while being in Immortal.

[@kipnugget3838]

Blast beat and double bass was nothing special at that time. Pete Sandoval did it in Morbid Angel in '89 or the band Nile, way before '97. Nothing special at that time

[@johnzackarias11]

@@kipnugget3838 Please read my comment again. I didn't say blast beats were new. My point was that several of these drummers were most likely self-taught, which is amazing given how difficult it is to play drums to this style of music.

[@kipnugget3838]

@@johnzackarias11 Probably they were. I've been to a George Kollias clinic some years ago and what he told us, that his inspiration came from Igor Cavalera. He learned to play that fast, only by ear. he didn't had a teacher from which he learned extreme drumming. Only the basics. Also the swivel technic he does came by accident. For him it was easier to play double bass that fast.

[@diemcarl5546]

What amazes me about musicians and musicianship, that this isn't only about musicality only but also an enormous physical endurance 🙌💯 especially, extreme genres. Massive respect ❤

[@0ktober]

Seeing you play this the "traditional" way (say, no double stroke techniques) with just plain strength and endurance is nothing but admirable. Huge respect, that's years of hard work!

[@0ktober]

... And if you think that Trym's studio performance was astounding, check out Emperor's 1999 Emperial Live Ceremony (DVD / VHS), and THAT version of Ye Entrancemperium. Guy's fucking nuts.

[@Nefville]

Trym is a beast. He's one of the few drummers that has a great signature, stands out from the crowd. Its cool to see him play this one too I saw in one video where he rests his left arm on his leg when he's blasting, was a good tip. Let me qualify that, Trym sits very low. Awesome cover I bet he sees it.

[@LecramScatterbrain]

phenominal playing! love that your drums dont sound over produced and fit well into the originals production!

[@KRIMHDrummer]

[@BBEDrummerAK]

25 dislikes? Must be drummers who a) can't blast for more than two counts before going fill crazy (can't do sustained blasts), b) don't like black metal, or c) don't realize the significance of this song, album AND drummer in the history of extreme metal. Or all of the above.

Not to mention he plays those double bass parts in basically a squat, as his knees are practically above his thighs he sits so low. 😳🤯

[@glassstate129]

You are absolutely right - Trim's work on this track is quite raw, with flaws and inaccuracies. With a floating rhythm. However, Trim Thorson is a great drummer, no doubt about it. And Emperors wouldn't be Emperors without him. His parts are magnificent, pretentious, exciting, symphonic... And the album turned out and for this they can be forgiven for any sins. "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk" for me is the perfect, the best symphonic black metal album ever. All over the planet. There is nothing more worthy to represent our Earth in the intergalactic hit parade and, probably, will not be. Your performance here and now is beyond praise. Fabulous!
