Navene Koperweis - Animals As leaders - Tempting time

Animals As Leaders! Thanks to neighbors jake and susie for putting up with my racket!

[@Timotolas]

Oct 2021, 12 years later and still a beautiful performance to watch. Navene is one of the best around.

[@kolondich]

12 years later, still amazing...

[@5thEagle]

A severely underrated drummer. Definitely up there with Portnoy, Orbin, Yoshiki, and the rest. Animals as Leaders is full of world class musicians. One of my new favorite drummers.

[@revb14n]

Damn son, you've come so far since I first saw this clip. Proud of you dude.

[@nkoperweis]

This is actually just a song off the cd. I tried to eq the drums out. that's why it's quiet

[@philtaylor6602]

Youre awesome dude. I know you know but, ya know..

[@chrisbedan]

I watch this..... everyday...... SO SICKK!!!!

[@guydudemanperson]

You just might have one of the greatest sounding drum kits i've ever heard

[@LunarLionheart]

THAT SNARE OH GOD I WANT TO HEAR THAT NOISE EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY

[@nemisis652]

This was the first video I ever put on watch later, I have listened to this song a good 40 times.

[@gregpfeifer3448]

Still coming back to this in 2023

[@AndreaBoccarusso]

I love the sound of snare ... even if serves only to be enhanced by effects, in the editing fase.weirdly reminds me police snare sound XD. and this guy is perfect ... nothing more to say

[@ThrashingBastardHell]

My god... ... That's is the best of best cover of Tempting Time in drums! Great!!! infinite star's for you!

[@koujimoreno]

I remember these days!

[@KrazyKancerKid]

this is just one of the youtube videos that you can watch over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again and still find it just as entertaining and jaw dropping as the 1st time watching it. I think im going to watch it again.

[@sharmashivysharma]

Oh hell yes, a Tabla in the background! Mad respect for that!

[@TheFijinbrad]

The sound of that snare is just beautiful!

[@maxgrind28]

oh man, i just wanted to check this video out for a few seconds, but i could not stop till i watch it all. amazing playing, honest.

[@Carlo24515]

To everyone who feels the need to argue about times signatures: Any song can be rewritten in any time signature. It's just a matter of notation. Sure, it may help with phrasing to think about it in a certain measure, but to a computer or someone who is going to play exactly what's on the page, it will literally all come out the same.

[@nemisis652]

"You liked this video. We'll use this to improve your recommendations." Don't lie to me KZbin, you won't. Unless you somehow make Navene make more videos there is nothing you could recommend.

[@mwb78]

Wow. Just got turned on to AAL and to see the part isolated like this is fantastic. Thanks. Fantastic drumming.

[@BeardedBetts]

I'm so pumped for these guys. I'm going to see them and Between the buried and me in 3ish weeks.

[@Midas526]

This guy's one of the best new drummers to have a moderate degree of success that's come around in quite a while. At least, to my knowledge; no one's arguing that this guy and his band are just phenomenal.

[@zickle3000]

you know this guy is a champ because of the set of tabla chillin in the background

[@grakle]

Driving up to Austin tonight from SA to see AAL & BTBAM. Can't wait.

[@prosperduffours]

DAT FUCKING SNARE !! ¤__¤ one of my favourites drummers of all time

[@Satrucci]

Nice job man, with animals as leaders are the best! regards man! good vibes!

[@EverybodyWantsToBeACat]

This guy is a machine. Wow. This isn't the kind of video you play and listen to while doing something else. Watching him play is the best.

[@dirtjump132]

loving the ghost notes during the hi-hat section.

[@wjdsmith]

between you and orbin, rudinger, novalis,mayer, harrison, Iam going too be out a lot of cash....my son loves you guys and now has developed a pricey taste in drums and cymbals....well at least he has good taste...thanks for sharing ...wyatt and daddy...

[@ChainsawVsGod]

One of the best drum performances I've ever seen. Absolutely fucking excellent.

[@evschong]

He makes it look so effortless. I'm jealous.

[@MrJimmoes]

I'm in love with his kit.: D

[@WillHarrisLV]

My favorite thing about this video are the Tabla sitting behind him. I can't wait for the new AAL record, where supposedly Navene is going to live track the drums (after they've been "written" by Misha and Tosin) I think its going to add a whole new dimension to the sound, and if we're REALLY lucky they'll get Evan Brewer to play bass!

[@xCessivePresure]

I read people commenting about how insane the drumkit sounds. WTF! This drummer is one who could probably make a 250$ drum sound like pure genius. It's not the drum set, who's awesome, it's the drummer.

[@jed52]

God this is beautiful man. Just beautiful!!!

[@ultrafez]

That's some excellent drumming. The reason the drums sound so clear and crisp is because they're properly mic'd up, unlike in the vast majority of KZbin videos.

[@biocideband]

ive watched this video hundreds of times, seen you live twice, and you still blow me away. simply amazing

[@LunarLionheart]

@Mp5Drummer For the record, technically it is a cover, all the drums were programmed, and was completely done without Navene and as far as I know, prior to his or Javiers joining to the band. But this video is beyond breathtaking. Perfect execution, and a snare sound you would set fire to yourself for.

[@itsEvident]

I don't think this will ever get old.

[@burnthebridges666]

i think Navene's kit sounds gorgeous! Perfect set up and sounds so clean!

[@sicboi80]

Saw you guys tonight in Austin with BTBAM, best show i've ever been too!

[@_baller]

awesome! great new music.

[@TheFijinbrad]

i love the sound of that snare

[@xolclint]

@MrRonGuitar You got that right MrRon. When you see this drummer in person and have an ear for what he's pulling off, it's mind boggling.

[@wathiqi]

thats totaly sick man....awesome music

[@a601lbcatfish]

You guys are going to be the first concert I've ever gone to. Cant wait for August 1st!!!

[@rjohnsongomez]

so much love... my god!

[@bjpdrums]

This is why i love ghost notes so much

[@secretsquirrell13]

Dude your the best drummer alive on this planet!!!

[@92678tcm]

amazing independence.....owned it Summer Slaughter tour!

[@pjdevill]

AWE!!!AWE!!!AWE!!!SOME!!!! great changes!

[@Tonileehxc]

The most beautiful snare sound I have ever heard

[@esond]

I keep thinking those 4 cymbals over there are going to topple over at any second!

[@stevenmaier]

Saw you guys last night in Wichita Falls. You're the sickest drummer I've ever seen. Keep it up!

[@Apothis]

I know you've heard this a gazillion times by now but you really are amazing. Respect.

[@emophodze]

yes! awesome. i love you guys.

[@dirtjump132]

man I love watching you play. good to see you posting videos. perfect job,love the song.

[@aponcapone]

Youre snare is the best!!! I have the sameon my left and it's killer!!

[@Xenochrist9]

Love the tablas in the back. Bad ass.

[@SomethingInocuous]

Animosity to Animals as Leaders....quite the resume.

[@tmayne220]

incredible. Love the tone of the drums! (especially the snare). And all the barely noticeable mistakes were handled like a pro!

[@FriebzaEmberorOfUniverse]

This is just awesome!!!

[@DigitalValueNuggets]

The thing I like most regarding Navene's playing style is the diversity of drum patterns he uses. Very unusual and still so freaking good!

[@JoniAsag]

yes, truely amazing

[@globalchaos1984]

I Love your band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@seamusmceagan]

It's so hard to find cool neighbors. Right on man.

[@penguinsauce87]

the most impressive part to me is keeping track of the wierd ass time signatures, holy shit its confusing MAAD respect this guy's an influence for sure

[@lf_drums7641]

Amazing drummer

[@blastbeatmark]

i just realized you're wearing the same exact thing that you're wearing in the cafo video

[@higler.]

haha wow I didn't know it was possible to play the drum parts on this album. Way to go man, I'll be seeing you dudes next time you stop through Illinois!

[@danielfgray88]

Navene is the rock-star version of Chuck Norris. When asked where my God is, I reply, "Probably swatting away mad groupies and fans from every angle, drinking brews and winning bar fights, accidentally setting fire to any instrument he touches with his military precision and blistering speed, or any combination thereof."

[@wjdsmith]

five out of five.......well done!......Wyatt and daddy.

[@JoBForACoWbOyEntomb]

im glad your in this band now. RIP animosity

[@phokuzbt]

AWESOME!!! You kick butt dude. One of the best drummers out there for sure. AAL for the win

[@iAmPesukone]

I'm very interested in drumming but I don't have many chances to practise. Yet I think it would probably be very satisfying to be able to play these patterns through. Great job, I love AAL.

[@skalmortis]

Best.Snare.Ever.

[@mvalentino95]

If there was a love button, id make several accounts and click the love button, this is just simply amazing

[@mrlucius57]

I've seen this video over 10 times i love hearing those drums

[@krookedsb23]

At Emo's?! Hell yeah!! The first band, everybody was all hxc dancing and shit. But once you guys came up, everybody got emotional and awestruck. I almost let out a tear, but hey, quicklikeabunny let out a shit. Amazing Band!!!

[@onemorethomas]

gets me everytime.....unbelievable insane

[@alan1o]

nice man. i agree. your snare sounds v nice.

[@zelfv]

increible!!! fabuloso!!!

[@faubeo182]

that snare sounds perfect

[@shemsuhor8763]

Tempting Time is still the best AAL song, not even close.

[@HaroNRIPley1]

I was on their show 2 week ago - present drummer KICKS EVERYBODYS ASS that day !

[@mattlikesdrumming]

that snare sounds soooooooo good

[@Brojo-Jojo]

I loving watching you just mean mug the shit out of your wall when you're playing. It's hilarious.

[@Tyulckin]

Awesome!!!

[@maariochaavez]

damn dude you are aiding my inspiration i'm a drummer of 9 years, trying to take off in the industry with a few bands, getting myself somewhere, recently decided this instrumental shit is what i want to do. true inspiration.

[@MrRonGuitar]

I was always caught up in listening to Tosin, wasn't until I saw this video that I realized the insane amount of time put into the drums tracks for the album... Truly amazing.

[@blojewski]

Awesome stuff man!!!! I cant wait to see you in Jacksonville! SOOOOOOOOO AMPED!

[@breakinknucklesruler]

wow aal is now one of my favorite bands

[@UDAMMRIGHTTz]

Great dude, Love your work.

[@benheninger]

It is a cover. He joined the band after the song was composed and the drums programmed. He simply played with them live and wrote the 2nd album drum parts. But this is the first album with the drums programmed by Mansoor.

[@BrandonGottesman]

Mad respect.

[@Teeseff]

Holy fuck ... just blew my mind. The perfection of technique -- well done sir.

[@franvila0]

Dude you are a freaking legend

[@edwardmelo2552]

EXCELENT!!!

[@RatedRTV]

One of the best drum covers i have seen in a while...Keep it up man!

[@R0ttenshit]

DAMN. Your'e the boss! Kit sounds great. You play relaxed and your drumming is totally groovy.
