Meinl Cymbals - Dirk Verbeuren - "Irradiant" by Scarve

[@joshuaenyart5570]

Wild to see a blast beat used as a dynamic soft break in a song!!!

[@HoraceTheLion]

I was thinking the same thing 😂😂😂

[@punxsutawneyphil3944]

Yup!

[@holyshiet787]

If you like that part, check Akercockes Axiom 😊

[@suniso370]

Also check out Salt by Caligula’s horse

[@miraband]

It's because Scarve are gods. Sad that they're not active anymore.

[@iamneophyte]

Dirk when he doesn't need to hold back:

[@scosstard3542]

Can't believe this song was released in 2004, sounds still fresh and modern. Dirk's drumming is obviously so intense and top tier!

[@miraband]

Dirk's playing is definitely essential part of Scarve. Can't imagine anyone else writing these crazy parts. Hands down.

[@ALLforROME]

Fock yeah! Sounds great! Good job Dirk! Sure do miss you in Soilwork

[@miraband]

Mee too. As well as in Scarve.

[@CadPCrayon]

Thank you so much Meinl and Dirk for these playthroughs, I thought I'd never see Scarve come back into relevance. Such an underrated band that needed more love.

[@finowa]

I remember in the early 2000's, feeling elated when I had discovered TWO amazing French metal bands that were under the radar of the general metal public... Out of the two, I thought Scarve was going to be the big mainstream thing. But holy shit did that not go how I predicted... The other band was Gojira

[@ChaosPootato]

Always a treat to hear Verbeuren go nuts

[@TheUltim8Apocalypse]

Unrelated, but love your profile pic, Fur Fighters rules 🤘🏻😂

[@marendone]

One of the most complete drummers in the World!! This Guy has everything: speed, precision, control, groove, creativity. What a monster!!!

[@zephyr30]

Ca fait tellement plaisir de te voir jouer du Scarve! Le meilleur album de metal francais jamais sorti! Un vinyl serait tellement bienvenue.

[@Moriarty501]

L’un des meilleurs groupe des années 2000, surtout grâce à Dirk. Quel plaisir de nous faire redécouvrir Scarve. Cheers 🎉

[@lokealexander]

This band and album was something else when it came out! Thanks for playing and posting it 🙌🏻

[@AntiBuzz]

Remember discovering him and Scarve back start of 2000´s in France in a really small venue. I was amazing by the crazy play of this nonchalant guy

[@corokingi]

Man Scarve was your something special and you can tell Dirk put alot of effort into that band. Also his work on the sybreed stuff was very good and be very cool to see his work with the guys again in the future. 🤙🤘

[@ArgusImagery]

Sybreed was my ultimate. Have you listened to any Obsydians stuff (Sybreed guys but with guest vocalists)?

[@corokingi]

@@ArgusImagery yeah man , it's good stuff 🤙

[@Patrikblombergsweden]

Seeing this makes me feel so nostalgic.

[@optimus1792]

Blast masterpiece, drumming masterpiece, song masterpiece, album masterpiece! One of my favorite death metal album. Incredible!

[@younghunglin]

Awesome to see Dirk revisit Scarve music! Was fortunate to see him play in Soilwork in Auckland (New Zealand). Awesome for his career to play in Megadeth but I was so saddened when he left Soilwork.

[@miraband]

I remeber first time hearing Stabbing the Drama was like wow... so many little details this guy does. And later I recognized Scarve and Sybreed. Mindblowing drummer with the perfect taste.

[@ArgusImagery]

@@miraband Sybreed was my ultimate. Have you listened to any Obsydians stuff (Sybreed guys but with guest vocalists)?

[@miraband]

​@@ArgusImagery sure, all of them are excellent in one way or another as well as Shadow Domain's debut album. But Sybreed is still #1.

[@Ali-bd5hp]

I love that this relatively obscure masterpiece isn't completely forgotten.

[@captweirdbeard]

I already gushed over this man, band and album on the Mirthless Perspectives playthrough, so I'm just commenting for the algorithm here. Love ya Dirk!

[@josephcrawley4281]

Thank you so much Dirk. Long live Scarve.

[@scruples]

Now this is a blast from the past.

[@ricklieffering241]

This whole album is awesome! Great drumming, Dirk!

[@paulanders102]

Dude!! You never fail to blow me away!! Nice drumming, Dirk. I have several Meinl cymbals myself. Love them.

[@krenwregget7667]

Killer! Great energy, speed and precision.

[@perpetualgrimace]

first time I've heard a "soft" blast beat 🙃

Wow. Please playthrough entire album. This is one of the best metal albums ever made. No joke. So influential in my circles.

[@Ore757]

Amazing, congrats Dirk

[@niffingig5143]

God damn, I LOVE this album!!!!!

[@crynightbcn]

I love too much this album and this song and I can't believe see this amazing performance. We want more 😊

[@timothyhetherington]

Dirk is one of kind behind the kit. So glad I got to see him with megadeth.

[@MrDJELEDJE]

megawhat?

[@somethingelse04]

​​@@MrDJELEDJE you're embarrassing yourself with your disprespect towards Megadeth

[@lastditch727]

Holy crap thats some insane endurance on the swivels.

[@MartinvonBargen]

Just read up on Scarve and now know why it reminded me of Darkane a bit. As usual, a clear mix and the cymbals have got that Meinl engineer's touch on them. Any info on who engineered and mixed this?

[@TheVermifuge]

Darkane riiiiips!

[@darrenbooker8144]

I love Darkane, you are now a legend ❤

[@MartinvonBargen]

@@darrenbooker8144 Did you hear them because of this thread?

[@Jeffmetal42]

I love that he gets to make his paper w Megadeth, a very steady check I'd imagine and a part of Metal history, while still dropping Grinding/Death Metal bangers outside of Megadeth. Truly the people's drummer. 🤘

[@guillermocrespo8144]

what a song dude!

[@tobiasrottenboypersson]

Fuck I miss Scarve! I still spin this album regularly.

[@ajb-drums]

Always nice to get some scarve action

[@NoFsGiven666]

All hail Dirk. Metal drum wizard. 🔥🥁🔥

[@somethingelse04]

Dirk the Belgian Wizard🤘🏻

[@67bronski]

this is when you let him loose, awesome job

[@jerandcor]

Ghost blast? Thought I heard everything 😮

[@nikokaartinen7980]

Dirk! Do Devin's Deconstruction next! :D Loved this!

[@ichouille]

Que de souvenir...

[@33gabyangel]

He it was always there!

[@shutterislanddd]

🔥🔥

[@GlycyGamesMusic]

Un boss. Merci d'exister. Blastafarei.

[@lolh4x]

Awesome, you gotta get Dirk to do some more playthroughs. A high quality "Alight in the Aftermath" by Soilwork would be nuts, it would showcase the "Dirk blast" perfectly also.

[@meinlcymbals]

We would always love to have Dirk back. He is so busy with Megadeth, that it took some time for his schedule to line up with ours. But being busy is a very good problem to have! Either way, we love Dirk and would love to shoot more content with him.

[@lolh4x]

@@meinlcymbals That's absolutely awesome to hear! It's so cool that y'all actually read the comments too. Thanks for replying, keep putting out sick drum content. Y'all are killin' it.

[@meinlcymbals]

@@lolh4x Thank you for the support!

[@somethingelse04]

​@@meinlcymbalsthanks for these videos of Dirk!

Also RIP to Guillaume. I bet he's smiling in heaven at this.

[@professor6804]

Dirk looks like a murderer with the gloves. Remember Hostel?

[@voidabstraction]

I was thinking about that movie the other day. That and Saw started that murder porn gore stuff I wasnt into... lack of context.

[@cesarecasanovamx]

This is the natural Dirk's way to play !

[@JoryBlake]

I think he’s on to something

[@CapellaOnDrums]

show

[@jeanmarcvilcot8155]

Ca sonne comme un compacteur sur un chantier . . .

[@lazydobo1094]

Megadeth really got this guy downplaying his skills 😅

[@papichulobr]

Imagine being that good of drummer and playing Megadeth stuff 😂

[@somethingelse04]

Megadeth ain't easy buddy

[@papichulobr]

@@somethingelse04 might not be that easy, but this guy played for Aborted, Solium Fatalis, Soilwork....much harder stuff bro

[@somethingelse04]

​@@papichulobrtrue, but Megadeth still isn't easy, especially the first two albums

[@jettsetter7]

Drums are cool, music is hot ass

[@NateSmith87]

Agreed.
