Metal Drummer Reacts to SANCTA TERRA (Epica)

[@calchristensen8562]

Floor actually did the song Stabat Mater Dolorosa with Epica during this concert.

[@richardhall6034]

Hi from the uk 🇬🇧 Check out Epica consign to oblivion live at the zenith Paris

[@stevekoelliker6764]

Floor and Simone have been friends for a long time. Mark Jansen(no relation to Floor) is a guitarist for Epica and used to be in Floor’s first band After Forever.

[@damienmaynard8892]

Floor and Simone were room-mates! Imagine......

[@retrospect6904]

@@damienmaynard8892 aaaand they had the same vocal coach....the relationship roots dont end! :)

[@eddiecreutzburg7375]

The Valkyrie Goddess of Metal and one of the the Queens of Metal. .. AWESOME

[@damienmaynard8892]

The one and only Arien van Weesenbeek on drums!! Van Weesenbeek started as a 3-year-old smashing furniture with spoons and forks!.... before discovering his dad's drum kit. He was inspired by bands like Cream, he then took drum classes. He later joined a marching band and at the age of 15 started a band, Pandaemonium, and joined others such as Downslide & Conspiracy. He studied at the Conservatorium of Rotterdam where he met Isaac Delahaye who also joined God Dethroned. Van Weesenbeek joined God Dethroned in 2003. In 2007 he recorded the drumming parts for the Dutch symphonic metal band Epica's album The Divine Conspiracy. On 3 December 2007 Weesenbeek became a full-time member of Epica, taking the place of session drummer Koen Herfst.

Floor has coached Simone for a time, they even shared a room long time ago. So they sung together for maaaaaany hours. Both brilliant

[@elwinvanrosmalen3627]

For a fun performance, check out Conseign to oblivion live at the Zenith indeed!

[@andreaswennberg9542]

There drummer is amazing. Want something heavy? Go for Epica - consign to oblivion live at zenith. What a preformenc!

[@svenriedel6328]

Yes plzzzz

[@moimeme8827]

yes ! +1000 !

[@paisa20]

yes, please

[@SkullyGjoe]

totally agree

[@Mark_-jq6wg]

Love Epica too, this is quite light for them but it was so fun and beautiful to listen to. Floor and Simone sound so good together and you can tell they are good friends. The lighting, guitars and drums all on point. Just awesome.

[@tomkenyon4517]

Big Kamelot fan myself. As far as this performance, to quote the very late Mae West, " too much of a good thing is wonderful".

[@steliosb8195]

Epica - consign to oblivion live at zenith is a must man

[@mix6809]

loved the reaction, tnx bryan.

[@paisa20]

Waiting more Epica

[@Matt-rn7ub]

An epic song. One of my favourite. Thanks for that reaction. Keep on going... ...whatever it takes.😄👍

[@adavid9929]

Try with something more heavy from Epica, like Consign to Oblivion live at Zenith, Paris.

[@MrSh0110]

Epica is an amazing band. You have to check more of them. This specific song is mild in Epica’s standards. They can be VERY heavy and intense. Many songs incorporate thrash, death and black metal elements. This, together with the epicness of the orchestra and choir and Simone’s divine voice - creates the ultimate contrast and a unique signature sound. Try these - Epica - Design Your Universe - Retrospect live Epica - The Essence of Silence - official live Epica - Ascension - official lyric video Epica - Unchain Utopia - official live

[@anniemoemski4057]

I agree with Jim Key Ayreon look for Ayreon - The Day That The World Breaks Down - The Source (2017) you love it.

[@pannemanbroeker6822]

Simone and Floor are best friends for a LONG time . please react epica ,,CONSIGN TO OBLIVION ,, Live at the Zenith . thanks for this reaction .

[@joseluiselvirreyes9052]

Also Mark Jansen, together in After Forever

[@pantlessreactions]

Xena vs Gabriele back together and slaying hearts worldwide

[@guitar_noodle]

Ne obliviscaris- and plague flowers the kaleidoscope live in Denver. You will really be impressed, and their drummer. Their music is studied at the Sydney music conservatory for composition.

[@sugoruyo]

Yeah, this needs to happen.

[@AM501]

you probably would like the drum on cry for the moon from epica's retrospect concert

[@richletram539]

Not that you can see him well but the guitarist on the left, Mark Jansen, (no relation to Floor), used to be in the band After Forever which was fronted by Floor Jansen. 😁

[@ShadowhispersBand]

The drummer insane and absolutely underrated. And yes, Epica do have a lot of fun on stage, check out Consign to Oblivion live at the Zenith. Plus check out MaYaN, same drummer, and even more epic in my opinion, check out Saints don’t die. And he also olays on Pale Horse - brandnew band. First video came out a few days ago with a seriously heavy and complex song.

[@Shamankzn]

Enjoying your content, man!

[@TheDevilYouKnow891]

MUST react to Consign To Oblivion live at Zenith. Other great recommendations to appreciate Ariën's great skills on drums could be : -Universal Death Squad ( there is a Drum Play Through in Epica's official channel) -Ascension Dream State Armageddon ( black metal vibes) - Victims of Contingency ( official video) Live performances: - Design Your Universe live Retrospect ( TOTAL EPICNEEESSSSS ) - The Essence of Silence live

[@FelycitySky]

I smiled so much at the "Jungle Boy" Point, cause I thought exactly the same. :D So now I not just love your reaction but also your great taste for a Wrestling Company! :) Keep on going!

[@mocheford]

If there were a poll, I'd vote for more action than reaction videos. But that's m humble opinion :)

[@tedbaker3846]

2 Goddesses!!

[@GaryHolloway-810]

This is the song that plays when the pearly gates open....Probably :)

[@christophschmedes5975]

The Name of the Drummer from Epia Is Arien he is asomw

[@stephsteph4574]

As a drummer you need to check out Leprous. Baard Kolstad is so good. Check out "The sky is red". There's a video with just him on the drums! You won't regret it!

[@jackstorm5649]

Ariën is the drummer for both Epica and MaYaN.

[@ChrisPage68]

Bryan - you can hear Arie and his old MaYaN bandmate Marcela Bovio in "Dark Horse White Horse - Black hole" here on KZbin.

[@bmt1968]

Three words: Consign to Oblivion

[@stevekoelliker6764]

Also Simone was pregnant during this performance.

[@DzeiEidz]

3 months if I remember correct. Also her microphone gain was set 10% higher than Floor's.

[@damienmaynard8892]

She had also only fairly recently recovered from serious MRSA!!

[@MaryGama]

And had been on stage more than two hours at this point

[@Kilian600]

Try with something more heavy from Epica, like Consign to Oblivion live at Zenith, Paris. .....I agree to that post !!!

[@nimaxwerker]

Ariën van Weesenbeek is my drum hero Here is a drum play through : kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqaWp4GZitVkqM0

[@Chiquita-CZ]

Try Mgła - Exercises in Futility V (Brutal Assault 2019 drum cam). Polish black metal band, drummer is virtuoso.

[@timmovanderput6109]

if you are a drummer you will love this: Eloy Casagrande - Means To An End (Sepultura)

[@CaffeineNightOwl]

since you are interested in good drummers, I suggest "mirror, mirror (official live video)" from german metal band "blind guardian". I think, that band and their drummer frederik ehmke are quite impressive and worth a checkout. greetings from germany.

[@emilhermansson2071]

slaughter to prevail - demolisher, do it!! :D

[@natanaelvieira2015]

Please react to Epica's new song, Abyss of Time, it's the single of new album and was released on Friday. It's a powerfull and amazing song

[@chrisw8515]

Granted I tend to pay more attention to the vocals, but since following Kai, I've begun to pay attention to drums, and frankly I'm amazed I never noticed before just how a talented drummer adds so much to a song (or a lack of good drum skills detracts from a song)

[@elchriss_gr3396]

Arien van weesenbeek amazing drummer

[@watchtheskies]

A few Epica suggestions: EPICA - Unleashed (OFFICIAL LIVE) EPICA - Edge Of The Blade (OFFICIAL VIDEO) EPICA - Universal Death Squad (OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO) EPICA - Beyond The Matrix (OFFICIAL VIDEO) and the new single which came out a few days ago EPICA - Abyss of Time (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

[@morbiouslenoir]

Even climbing up on the furniture doesn't get the boys any attention! LOL

[@jmirsp4z]

try Dark Funeral - Vobiscum Satanas drumcam

[@sgtmajorbuzz]

Just wait until you discover Aryeon. You are not yet ready though. Soon.

[@rokeim]

Yes. He needs seasoning. Toehider, newer Kamelot...several others first.

[@rokeim]

Avantasia , Blind Guardian...

[@benrilomubarok586]

First let me tell you how to pronounce Dutch names. The A in Jansen in pronounced as the A in Darth, Not the A in Vader. Almost all Dutch A’s are pronounced like that. The I in Simons is the same as the I in Simone. There’s a second duet by them called Stabat Mater. Both singers sang on several albums by Ayreon and in the two live concerts: Ayreon Universe live, with Floor. The Electric Castle Live and other tales, with Simone. Simone Simons and Tommy Karevik are two of the main singers on the latest album by Ayreon called Transitus.
