KRIMH - Emperor - Ye Entrancemperium

As the cold season is approaching us this classic Norwegian black metal song is a great fit. I am really into Emperor these days and their "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk" album is probably my favorite.
This song was very challenging to record. First of all Trym Torson blast beats and double bass drumming is not easy. The original was recorded without a click and the tempo is constantly going up and down.
The typical chaotic black metal sound didn't help either to hear clearly what is going on.
It is not perfectly played and has some hiccups here and there but is an honest performance for this iconic song.
I hope you enjoy it!

[@sikkis4007]

@@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. Krimh just fucking breath's old school metal drumming and he also nails all the modern stuff like nobody else. You know?

[@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.

Trym is a beast. He's one of the few drummers that has a great signature, stands out from the crowd.

Dude, Krimh can barely play this song, created 25 years ago. Where there was no Axis, nor Czarcie Kopyto, where the swivel technique was not known at all, nor the double strokes in the bass drum were so used, and nor any of these new "extreme metal" techniques that increase performance by reducing stamina use. Just the old fashion of hitting hard. This is where you realize that Trym Torson is a drum freak. From another planet. Way above the best category anyone can create. The man rocks, even to this days.

[@shugganize]

Playing this song was not actually difficult for him, I think what you hear is actually the original song having varying tempos and Krimh adapting to that since he's a fuckin atomic clock
