I was today years old when I found out you left the band because of health issues ... my heart's with you Romain.

[@fenderb125]

I don't see that anywhere...

[@notasilicaanimus]

Part man, part machine. Underneath, it's a hyperalloy combat chassis, microprocessor-controlled, fully armored. Very tough...But outside, it's living human tissue. Flesh, skin, hair...blood. Grown for the cyborgs.

[@regortex3364]

I saw Romain with Necrophagist headline a 6 band bill about 8 years ago, all the drummers were great but he stood out, really incredible drummer.

[@S3lvah]

I don't ever recall seeing a fill like 1:44. Man that is sick. And it's cool how well the other instruments accompany the drums in that bit, and not vice versa.

[@dual322]

Foreals

[@finalfantasy7820]

You make me listen to this genre.

[@decapitated2368]

I really appreciate this video, even more now. Beautiful variations and phrasing on the kit. Excellent drumming

[@renatolarsen]

You are moving so very better around the kit Romain! The diference is so clear like water! Years teach us how to get knowledge! Awesome! Many more years drumming for you dude! Big hugs from Brazil.

[@Nefville]

I remember watching this video 5 years ago when it came out and I was just getting into metal drumming. Yeah I had no idea how amazing this playthrough is and that Romain would become one of my favorite drummers of all time. Funny how things turn out.

[@mrhairy1221]

He's one of the ones to follow.

[@JohnLowOfficial]

I am simultaneously not surprised and amazed at how fast you are on this album. You keep progressing after each album you do and it's awesome!

[@cusoonmyfriend3738]

i laughed at "progressing"

[@DeadGlassEyes]

Talk about being a perfect fit for the band. Your performance on this album is fucking outstanding, keep it up! Already can't wait for more Benighted.

[@warlin300]

yes, you make me hear that kind of extreme and brutal music, and I love it, thanks.

[@seitn]

impecable e implacable Romain, felicitaciones!

[@Caspergameone]

Awesome! You are best!

[@NanoArrix]

Awesome!!!Romain Goulon did it again!

[@nodnarbregztem8546]

As one of my favorite drummers since the Disavowed days, I know you will do justice for the style of Benighted. Fantastic playing, dude!

[@DeadGlassEyes]

Rhizome was awesome! Still play it on a regular basis. I saw them on that tour supporting Cannibal in Munich and they fucking crushed it. Ah, the good ol' days!

[@robertsztorm4822]

Check polish crue called Antigama with Meteor album drummer is Pawel Pawulon Jaroszewicz,its a masterpiece.Enjoy! 😈

[@Orgasmatron_69]

U covered me totally bro! Stagnated Existence was just EPIC!

[@5BILLIONplus1]

Well written and played flawlessly.

[@resetmetal]

Ce jeu de cymbales est beaucoup trop fou. Plus sérieusement, content que tu sois derrière les fûts de Benighted, l'album est vraiment hyper intense grâce à toi.

[@abohadi1979]

can’t believe such videos are available for free , in the 90’s we used to buy VHS Tapes for the drummers we like and they weren’t cheap

[@garysticks1153]

Juste le meilleur..

[@angelbrizuela5771]

Brutal Romain!!!

[@ralleralle8620]

you re so an awesome drummer!

[@samm1533]

Holy Shit Romain... Watching you after a long time.. Awesome Metal Brother \m/

[@frankstijnen1910]

Fucking awesome. Brings back lots of memories. Hope you are doing great Romain!

[@BurnTheNuance]

Fucking hell man! Good to see you uploading again. Also this is how it should be done (audio wise). Triggered kicks, natural everything else. No fancy studio tricks here! \m/

[@chromegnats]

Sounds perfect 👍

[@davleking]

monstrueux !

[@basslinepromotions]

the pace flows perfectly pure intensity with killer fills and the way the patterns change is creative as fk watching this felt like rapid blood loss to the point of calm... before death absolutely murdered lol

[@anticosmictribute]

einfach nur hammer!!

[@Regular_Pigeon]

Excited for the Prague show

[@cassiusgaio9524]

Perfect

[@napalmwxcv]

Pourquoi prends-tu la peine de répondre à des ignares ... Benighted , tuerie sur album et carnage en concert !!! Merci pour le superbe NECROBREED et la tournée de malade ! Laurent à Arlon .

[@bobbyprice4950]

Awesome !!! fills

[@Flakum]

Great stuff, this.

[@thomaslenouen9641]

Grosse tuerie comme d'habitude Romain ! Je vous ai vu en concert vendredi soir à Toulouse, c'était la grosse claque !

[@IronFleshOfficial]

l' accélération sur le dernier riff est juste fabuleuse ahahah ^^

[@milarepa74]

hey perfect man,you are a human drummachine:)

[@TheTrueFortress]

INSANE.

[@jessie2feathers]

Great Job!

[@Demonstealer]

My head was just blown off!!!

[@larzancover]

How did you get behind the set?

[@NostalNofckingway]

larzancover, I heard that some drummers, the really sick ones, are inseparable from their sets. If you want to call a drummer out for a walk, you guys are gonna have to carry the whole thing.

[@espguitarz1]

After setting up. You sit and just start playing.

[@13spiders]

Asking the real questions

[@Anaximander29A]

*Magic*

[@orphanuprising]

Romain was born right there, and right there he shall live out the rest of his life.

[@enzomorales9001]

Hermosooooo

[@midihc]

20 dislikes? Sad fucks. lol Incredible work, Romain! Powerful and fast blasts, exciting fills. Love it.

[@christophercarson7733]

Damm bro to play Kevin's stuff with little effort was fckn brutal I'm a new fan now you fckn destroy bro can't wait to see more of you

[@timmyc2085]

Romain recorded the drums on this album.

[@bonechrusher9749]

One of the best yt drum covers

[@RomainGoulon]

Thanks!! However, this is not a cover. I played on this album and for this band. It is a play through.

[@bonechrusher9749]

I forgot it.sorry😂

[@tommyc8517]

How soon until there is another play through video? I LOVE this!

[@tanchokdewan9020]

I love this drummer he inspired me doing what I love ......don't quit?

[@Andre83925]

Perfect! 👌🏻

[@vangoncalves2917]

Music and drumers good!

[@wedo552]

really good

[@millerandall4102]

The Goat

[@behindthen0thing]

Amazing work my friend

[@behindthen0thing525]

i agree

[@EvanJr]

Insane

[@extrovertedintrovert6579]

I liked the bit when he hit the drums with the sticks

[@dfhellraiser4td]

God damnit, now I have to buy a new face. The old one done melted off!

[@mcknight8225]

My respect for blasts With WRISTS

[@DeathN0cturnal]

this is a dumb fuckin comment lmao

[@aditwani6562]

His technique is very similar to hannes großmann, who uses fingers plus wrists. Look up the Hybrid technique by him.

[@iliketoaty]

@@DeathN0cturnal Dude this guy used his whole hand!

[@maciej715]

fuckin sick fills ...great job.

[@BudgetingVirtualWarfare]

Love the Shagrath sounding vocals!

[@bastosnicolas]

Top !

[@manegarm999]

can you tell us your cymbal setup please? thanks!

[@toolband1992]

F************************************KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!! Amazing! So fast, tight as f**k, creative and just amazing. Welcome back. It's nice seeing you with a major band and release in extreme metal. Can I ask two questions: (!) What is the fastest double-bass run when you're doing heel-toe? And (ii) And what is the blast beat speed of intro? Haven't listened to the album yet (have got it), but the drumming is incredible. Been a fan of yours for years and have your DVD. Thanks. :) P.S. Can I ask the reason for the move to heel-toe? As your singles were so tight and loud. Just wondered.

[@0gur]

There is so many goods there, but this seamless snare at 1:44 is lika a cherry on the top of a cake ;)

[@carlosflorez2802]

brutal!!!!

[@noodlehome]

fucking amazing !

[@joelgillaspy9558]

NICE

[@KAOTSOUKI]

Cool

[@deadsquirrel6378]

Du très lourd ce nouvel album avec Romain et Emmanuel! ça donne un coup de jus au groupe! Sinon un petit play through de la chanson éponyme c'est possible? =)

[@TheLeviathan13]

sick ....

[@bluemoblin3824]

Fucking savage dude! Picking up this album for sure.

[@konradzubrzycki5056]

To jest kurwa piękne!

[@Michael_Michaels]

Dude you're so fucking good!!!

[@ShredTraining]

Awesome. Do you teach online at all?

[@mattvdh]

hard to say who's the best benighted drummer. Folley came up with the style, Goulon added his own flavor and Kevin did as well, while following the Follow style.

[@aharris9464]

Goddamn. I think death metal drummers are cybernetic organisms. They have hair, skin, mails, but under all that they're secretly T-800's.

[@EliteFetishist]

fuckin awesome, period

[@deathmetalml]

doble stroke technique on pedal? awesome

[@awaly7200]

Romain t'es un monstre , je te suis depuis Disavowed. En tout cas tu en a fais du progres depuis. Benighted est Aborted sous steroide :) mais honnetement tu as le niveau pour jouer dans des poids lourd . Tout ce que je souhaite est je ME souhaite eest que Ross dolan te signe pour Immolation :D

[@theartofsickness]

Si t'as l'occaz (et le matos), test une petite version en 50 fps, pour les blasts et les parties rapides c'est encore plus sympa a voir.

[@marcosjobleijasalgado2108]

Eres mi idolo pero creo que debes experimentar con el jazz.

[@tommyostensen7339]

Beast! What happend to David? Did hi quit as drummer for Benighted?

[@Affenhaug]

I feal really sorry for you. You are my insparation since the Album Biased Existence from Disavowed. I hope you get well soon.

[@JustLoveKrishna]

What happened to Romain?

[@lorenzoparlangeli1496]

NO FUCKINNN WAYY!

[@FERGOTRESKA]

How would he get out from that drumset?

[@remidesjacquot5321]

C'est effrayant

[@petesmith9475]

First tought "does he really need or use that many cymbals". Answer is yes. Goddamn...

[@angantyr86]

that was awesome, romain... but i was wondering about heel-toe, is there a criteria involved for you to use it?

[@SteftreS]

If I remember well, he told me he's doing it because he's simply looking for the best in terms of stamina-saving.

[@angantyr86]

i get it but there are parts where he can clearly use it and he just doesn't, i was wondering why is that, what is his criteria about it

[@Enlightened_Healings]

it looks like he mostly uses it when he's playing sections with long sustaining 16th notes, if he's only playing a burst of 16ths, a pattern or 8th notes and slower he doesn't need to use the doubles

[@ctzaaa3526]

nice sauna :D

[@lovecraftmusic8717]

what hi-htas are those please?

[@alexandremi8422]

je suis venu voir benighted à st Étienne, c'était la première fois que je les voyais avec romain goulon à la batterie, avant c'était déjà top mais la c'est encore mieux!

[@mairincruz6684]

dios wwooooo

[@vanilllaguerrillla8550]

One word - moist.

[@mattvdh]

is that a drum shed or a room in your house?

[@bugproductions9050]

Probably should keep a fire extinguisher at arms reach.

[@wilfordbrimley6938]

I know I'm late here, but as soon as it hit the overhead camera I was furiously trying to figure out how he actually got behind his set

[@user-hz3gz1xk9n]

Are you a robot? Very impressive!

[@dimashaimov4629]

lux....

[@FretMillen10]

getem with da STANKFACEE

[@seuzer]

I can't hear most of the details on drums on the actual song, like I do in this one. Why is it?

[@henrikhyrup3995]

Production/mixing has probably changed the drum sound or simply silenced them a bit.

[@lonewanderer882]

claustrophobic

[@Szynatorr]

How the f did you get behind the kit? ;O

[@Killerniete93]

he was actually born there and never got out

[@Killerniete93]

he was actually born there and never got out

[@Killerniete93]

he was actually born there and never got out

[@marekweglarczyk5096]

fuck man you killin
